Easter TBA regatta at the V&A Waterfront

This was the saturday morning, I had taken the boat around from HBYC waters, to Quay 4 the previous afternoon, we stayed on that dock untill the next morning. I well remember the local bars jazz band was great. We had a visit from Pippa and Miles, he  worked part time at the V&A as The Jazz Gorrilla, Miles was also one of the TBA members, stood in that night with his saxaphone on some spots. Miles and Pippa were last known to be crusing with their boat 'Stella by Starlight' in Spain.

The tide was well out and I needed to wait for a rising tide to move over to the right of the picture for the weekends sailing events and lots of fun. The boat is the Endurance 37 named Ocean Cloud, as a family we had cruised with her to Brasil and Venezuela, she was in Simonstown last I saw her.
