REF : 0 EDITION : 1930 DATE : 08 Aug 1934 COURSE : 0 DESCRIPTION SITE : Caption from Associated Press: "King George of England, an enthusiastic yachtsman, entered his yacht, The Britannia, in the annual regatta of the Royal Thames Yacht Club at Ryde, England recently, but was disappointed in his first race, there not being enough wind for The Britannia to make a proper showing. This air view shows the Shamrock (left), The Britannia (centre foreground) and the Westward as they tacked during the first race. The King was accompanied on board by a large group of notables."
