Sailing Magazine
By Richard Crockett
The headline is misleading as there was no devastation, mayhem nor Mayday calls, but rather a Tornado catamaran setting the Round the Island Race alight on the Vaal Dam.
It was Garth Boshoff who took line honours in 1991, setting a new course record time, and also taking the rare double of winning overall on corrected time too.
Today’s feature is all about the photos in this 4-page report, plus all the names mentioned in the report and results as combined they bring back memories from yesteryear and remind us all of who was sailing back in those days.
As always, comments are encouraged, so enjoy reading this feature and sharing your thoughts.
