D. Southworth for life in recognition of his devotion and interest in the

conceived by Past Commodore E. L. Raymond, Jr., who sculptured a miniature
model of the FELICIA III, Off Soundings Class Sloop, "OS 1" originally
owned by Mr. Off soundings himself, Melvin D. Southworth. This model was
rendered in gold by member Ross Sibley, late of Haddam Ct. The original
scupture is a permanent gift to Melvin D. Southworth. In 1967, the Southworth
family had a replica made in silver. This replica will henceforth be known
as the Melvin D. Southworth Trophy, to be awarded from time to time by
unanimous decision of the Flag Officers of the Off soundings Club to a
