Dusty Miller Trophy

Awarded annually to the Skipper Member of the boat catching the most sharks of qualifying size during the season (not restricted to Looe)

At the 9th December 1966 committee meeting the secretary read a letter from Mr S G Miller in which he offered a trophy to the club. The designation of the trophy was for it to be awarded annually to the skipper who caught the most sharks of qualifying size in a season. This was proposed by Mr. E C Were and seconded by Mr D Denne. The trophy was first included in the listing in the 1967 Rule Book.  At the committee meeting of 7th November 1967, it was carried unanimously that the boatmans prize (£?) should be awarded to the boatman who caught the most sharks of the season. The secretary was asked to write to Mr S G Miller to ask if was agreeable for this prize to be combined with his trophy. The following months minutes (16th December 1967) record Mr S G Millers was in agreement with this request.

The minutes of the 30th March 1971 meeting note that skippers £10 prizes were agreed to be discontinued. However at a committee meeting on the 8th August 1971 it was noted that the skippers prizes were still in the rule book so they were reinstated for 1971 pending a review before the following year
