| Criteria: | Awarded to the member(s) who have demonstrated a willingness to give assistance to other boaters in need (despite the circumstances).
This trophy has been repurposed. “Gulf Islands Trophy” is engraved on the bowl. In 1981 the trophy was called “Gulf Islands Star Class Championship.” Donated by the English Bay Star Fleet it was presumably awarded to the winner of a Star Class Race, but the records are hard to find. |
