This is the Endurance 37 'Ocean Cloud moored at the V&A Waterfront for a Traditional Boat Easter Regatta (what happened to those?)thats my dad,Robert Henry McBride with his back to the camera in conversation with ex TBA commodore and founder member, Pat Frazer,with my mother trying to follow what they are discussing? Pat clearly has a Castle Larger in one hand,looks like the braai has been busy too.

Thats Tara alongside (now Squire)note those period winches and long Hyfield Levers! with Kalahari Sands in front with Brat of Dunkirk alongside her,these were the glory days for the TBA.
