The trophy was originally intended to be for a Glasson Week event but when Glasson Week was effectively abandoned during 1991 because of lack of support, the Dinghy Committee decided to present the trophy for the highest placed slow boat in the Summer Series. The trophy was re-allocated to the Autumn Series in 2001
