“Talking Sailing” From My Archives. Club Notes – April 1996

By Richard Crockett

The last two issues of SA Yachting magazine have been filled to capacity with powerboat and waterski news, and very little yachting, hence two Club Notes in succession. In the magazines defence though, it’s sub-title is “Waterskiing Power & Sail”.

Today I have shared the cover of the April issue as it has, as the caption says, “a Spearhead jills daintily along at Florida Lake’, a gentle pic to ease in the weekend. I wonder what Florida Lake looks like today?

There’s lots to read in the seven pages of this news, lots of photos and mentions of many people who were the stars, maybe even rockstars, of yesteryear.

Today’s Headlines Are:
• Sails on the Highveld by Peter Brown
• Bloemfontein Yacht Club
• Bushmans Boating Club – Page of “People Pics”
• Durban Doings by Bianca Lavies
• Bushmans Boating Club Regatta
• Ladysmith Boating Club
• Newcastle Aquatic…
• Sandefjord’s Adventure
