<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></blockquote id="quote"> The Association is welcome to a trophy I received in the 1985 C25 National Regatta. It's about 34 1/2" high, has a wood base, 4 brass columns, topped with wood. A "loving cup" (about 10" high) is on top of that, and there's a sailboat on top of the cup. To use it as a traveling trophy, you'd need to fabricate a larger wooden base, so there would be enough space for a brass plate big enough for many names of future winners. That would be easy for anyone with any woodworking skills. It's a very nice trophy worthy of a national champion.

The finish on the loving cup has slight damage, but I have a friend who has a trophy shop, and believe it can either be restored with a spray-on finish, or replaced inexpensively. I'll try to check with him today. Let me know if you think you'd be interested in it.

Looks to me like our own little americas cup. A trophy offered up by a member that could be used for the overall winner.

We would need to put donated by pc Steve Milby and his national championship dates on the inscription. What do you think Bill?

Let's just call it the Milby Cup and make everyone wonder if Steve died!

It occurred to me that my trophy would be difficult to ship through the mail or otherwise without something eventually getting broken. The placard with a half hull model on it, like the ones already being used by the National Association, are fairly flat, and would be much easier to transport. I checked with Catalina, and the company fabricates them as a special order. If you would prefer, I'll donate a half hull placard. That way, our "overall champion" trophy would match the existing ones. Let me know what you'd prefer.

The trophy shop says I can get a nice replacement for the brass loving cup on top of the trophy, if you prefer that one to the half hull trophy. (The size of my cup is 9", Duane, if you must know!

)

Let me know which trophy you would prefer. (the freestanding one or the half hull.)
