Noted maritime author James Delgado weaves a tale of 100 years of recreational sailing and power boating around Vancouver, along the rugged and beautiful British Columbia coast and off the challenging waters of Juan de Fuca Strait. More than a history of the club, Racers and Rovers tells the story of a city with a passion for boating, of races and controversies, rule-makers and rule-breakers, rum-running, wartime service and colourful personalities who were both outstanding citizens and enthusiastic sailors.
