The result was the Optimist and Clearwater Optimist fleet was soon in action.[7] Clark Mills was also the builder of Snipe "Honey", winner of the United States Snipe National Championship in 1951 with Francis Seavy and Howard McGaughey.[8]CYC hosted the 1960 United States Snipe National Championship.
