Look At That: Four Boat Club small fry stare at a submerged rowboat off the dock, while a fifth looks doubtfully at the intruding photographer. Cautious parents take no chances, shallow water or not. Life preservers are part of the regular juvenile gear.

Jockeying For A Start: Five different types of boats wait for the blast of the horn as they maneuver for a starting position in a Sunday afternoon race. Shown from the left are a fiberglass Rebel, a Rhodes Bantam, a gaff rig pram, a Tiger and a Comet. Although the Rebel, the largest boat, came in first, the final winner will be determined by corrected time on the basis of the boats' handicaps.

The Yacht Club: Boats and equipment are stored in the small boathouse, but the yachting set usually prefers to gather on the porch. On alternate weekends the sailors bring whole families, down to the smallest mariner in a life jacket, and share a potluck supper on the porch. The boathouse was constructed in 1936.
