The 38 Cup was given back to the Club in 1985 having been found in the effects of a previous club members. It is very small (only 4 inches tall) and is believed to have been one of the pre-war Commodore’s trophies, which in those days were given annually by the Commodore.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

From 2003 it was given as the Slow\u00a0Handicap Fleet Class Cup and from 2006 it was awarded as an Optimist Class Cup.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The Cam Challenge Cup was given to the Club in 1938 for an open race which would have no limitations for handicap and class rules would not apply. It was simply for a race with no handicap. This gave rise to boats having all sorts of extra sails and other devices to increase speed- not all of which worked. Since 1972 it has been sailed for under normal class rules and handicaps. It has always been sailed in conjunction with Granta cup, usually on water away from the Club, initially at Ouse\u00a0Amateur\u00a0S.C. and at Cam S.C.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

An electro-plated cup given by H. C. Banham Ltd, the well known firm of Cambridge Boat Builders, in 1985. The Banham brothers were club stalwarts for many years. It was originally given as the trophy for the CSC Marathon, a 12-hour team event which was held for several years in the 1980’s.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Since the demise of the Marathon, it was used as the trophy for the best Young Helm in the Piggott Cup autumn series, and therefore compliments the Young Helm trophy which is used for the Class Cups series in the spring.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Cam Cannon was originally used to start races at the club. It took shotgun blank cartridges and must have been a fearsome device. It was used to start the Granta Cup at Denver in the 1930’s. It has now been made safe now so that it can no longer be fired! For many years the club had to buy a gun licence for it.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Since 1990, the cannon redesignated the Cam Cannon has been used as the trophy for a series of races in August. It comes complete with box and original pull through for cleaning it.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

This fine rose bowl was given by George Heath who was Commodore 1914-1919. It was given in 1947 for open competition for the Merlin\/Rocket fleet which newly formed at the club.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Initially it was competed for away from the club at a variety of venues. For many years it was the autumn Merlin Open Metting trophy at Graftham Water S.C. When Graftham no longer required it, it was brought back to the club as a club trophy and was used for the CSC Merlin\/Rocket open meeting until 1989.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It is now used as a general club trophy as the prize for one of the summer series of pursuit races. It is now known as the Cam Bowl although it is engraved ‘Merlin Challenge Bowl’.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

This silver cup was given in 1954 by three doctors who used to sail at the club. It was given as a trophy for those that had never won a major prize at the club. This principle still applies and the race for the Cup is still sailed annually.

Sailed for as a single race usually late July or early August. To be eligible helms must not have won a major trophy at the club. Helms are also excluded if they have won the Doctor’s Cup previously. You can only win this once!<\/span><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

This plate was given to the Club in the 1979 by Lou Oliver. Lou came to the Club quite late in life having retired from his job in the Midlands, he came to live in Cambridgeshire. He was a very well known Merlin\/Rocket helm and sailed his Merlin ‘Broad Scoter’ at the Club for a number of years to great effort. Cam Merlin sailors immediately adopted the famed Oliver flyaway spinmaker pole and other innovations. Realising that there were no prizes at the club where individual abilities were taken into account Lou devised and introduced the personal handicap series run on Sunday mornings. This idea was slightly refined over the years is still very popular at the club.

The trophy is used as the overall trophy for personal handicap over the complete season. For the spring series, the Shipwrecked Mariners Pennant is given and for the autumn series, the Pittaway trophy and Deep Fishermen’s Pennant is given.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

This is a fine silver trophy from the early years of the club, being given in 1913. It has always been considered one of the top trophies to win. Although never Commodore Almeric Paget was a prominent early member of the club and was also Vice-Commodore of the Royal Thames Yacht Club a fact to which the engraving on the trophy testifies.

The Paget Cup has always been used as as trophy for open competition for the whole club. For many years, there were restrictions on entry, competitors having to sail a certain number of races in order to qualify\/ Also special rules applied. Only in 2003, have the restrictions and special rules removed. It will now be sailed as a dinghy trophy on handicap for a one off-race.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

This is another of the trophies given by the Commodore as the Commodore’s Trophy. It was with\u00a0 engraved ‘Commodore’s Cup’ in 1902. This must have been a trophy which was kept by the winner as the other similar trophies were. It must have been won by P. Piggott (Commodore 1928-1931) and was donated back to the Club on his death in 1945. It is the oldest club trophy owned by the club still being sailed for.

For many years the cup has been used as the overall trophy for the autumn series of class races.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The cup is a 9 carat gold cup in a case. It was presented in 1926 by W. G. Pye, founder of the Cambridge Electronics Company, who sailed at the Cam for many years during the 1920’s and 1930’s. It was won by W. G. Pye himself in 1927 and 1928.


The Gold Cup has always been used as an overall prize for races during the season. the rules have changed from time to time but this principle has\u00a0 been adhered to. At present, it is awarded for cumulative points from the Class Cups, Piggott Cup and Paget Cup, Whitehead Memorial Plate, Granta Cup and Cam Cup. All Races in these series count, so that the more races attended the better chance of winning.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
