Two classic yachts on the Hout Bay Yacht Club marina

Seen yesterday, the larger yacht is (I think) a Holman and Pye design, her name was Tara, then changed by a new owner to Squire but I think another new owner re named her back to Tara?

Check the link for more pictures of that boat.

Two classics in their own right but what is that small white yacht?


Click on the images to enlarge them.

Ronnie Roos told me its a Berckemeyer designed  Flamenca with many changes.



The GRP hull has been played with, made longer and I think wider, the normal Flamenca deck, coach roof and cockpit is completely changed.

Check below to see what the Flamenca should look like, now how did they change that bow?
