White Island Race Start 1981: Howzat in the foreground. I don't recognize the Lotus 9.2 but that's Trauma and I think Razzle Dazzle beyond.

Here is a series from the start or the White Island Race in 1981. In those days the race started before Anniversary Weekend and it was common to get back in time for a sleep and then to race the Anniversary Day Regatta - as the new Admirals Cuppers did that year.
Here is Epiglass NZ.

I have been scanning some old negatives, some of which are in very poor condition, but may bring back some memories. I hope you find something interesting amongst them.
I will start with the launch of Feltex Roperunner in late 1980 at Half Moon Bay. You may recognize some people, Don and Jim Lidgard, Farr, Bowler...

I have a cellphone and some mt gay. Not sure about the fine art thing.
Many years ago (31 years ago if I recall) I seem to remember a photo you had on your wall of the Cav 32 sailing under the Golden Gate Bridge.
Now that was fine art.

For those not old enough to remember - that is pretty much bang-on the original colour. Fantastic to see.

I did a lot of sailing on Easterly 30s in the late 70s. Fine cruising and sea boats except for the limitation of their age today. They felt similar to a Cav 32 at sea. They were slow, even by the standards of the day, but they felt bullet-proof.
The late Tony Corbett (ex BBYC commodore) soloed Karona back from Mooloolaba after racing there circa 1981 (or was it '83?).

Anybody remember who crewed on it? Get the remaining guys back on board
Paul Whiting, Murray Ross, Richard Cleave, and Steve Trevurza I think.
Nostlagia - just some old photos
