The Sylvan Lake Mystery Towns Challenge

It was previously believed that after the first world war, the Sylvan Lake Regatta didn't restart until 1923. However, details have been emerging that there was in fact a great regatta in 1921 that was a sight to behold, with 23 boats fighting to take the grand prize in what may have been the greatest race ever! Alas, the detailed records of the event have been scattered around town along with the names of the boats and of the grand prize winner themselves.

A local historian has charged you with finding all of the information so that they can prepare a big news story for the centenary of the race - the question is, are you up to the task of solving the clues to get there?
