Speed on the Harbour

Big crowds watched the Roto-iti Power Boat Club s speedboat meeting on Nelson harbour, but along with all other bodies which organised attractions for the carnival programme, found the public had the purse strings drawn tight. This hardly detracted from an excellent day's racing, however. Eighteen craft were entered from Murchison, Blenheim, Nelson and Lake Roto-iti.
