Evelyn McGregor was walking around the Classic Boat Festival and bought five raffle tickets on a classic reproduction of a 1932 Ed Monk Sr tender (boat) on the Saturday. The following Tuesday, they called Evelyn from the Cowichan Bay Boat SOciety to say she had won 1st prize and that she could call them and pick up her boat.
Evelyn won a 9 foot by 4 1/2 foot boat made from oak, red, and yellow cedar, and mahogany wood by a boat builder from Esquimalt. The oars are also oak, and came with a stand.
