(3) Engravers and etchers.
(4) A man having an interest in a boat-letting business, and taking in or starting boats at a raft.
But not to—
(5) A 3rd engineer, sea-going, who goes to sea and works for money, where such sea-service it necessary to qualify him for passing his examinations for the position of chief engineer.
(6) A draughtsman in an engineering firm, though working for wages.
Decisions 3 and 6 are not easily to be reconciled.
Regatta. Junior Oarsmen and Scullers.
Doubts have occasionally arisen as to what is the correct meaning of the word "Regatta" in [Clause XI. of the Constitution], and in [Rules 19 and 20 of the Rules for Regattas]. The committee has held that any meeting, whether or not called open, at which more than one club, or members of more than one club, compete, is a regatta. This decision does not cover a private match, but does cover a regatta where, for instance, the competition is limited to certain clubs, specially invited by the club or committee who arrange and manage the regatta. Thus, if a junior competed and won, either as an oarsman or sculler, at a regatta limited, say, to members of the London, Kingston, and Thames Rowing Clubs, he would by so winning cease to be a junior, provided the race was neither a school race nor one in which the construction of the boats was restricted.
The committee has decided that a man who rows over for a junior sculls race, even though he receive no prize (the committee not awarding one in any race in which there was only one starter), ceases to be a junior sculler.
A junior sculler may be a senior oarsman, and vice versâ.
