One last sail

1 March 2018 By Alan Straton

One last sail from the building that ABYC was evicted from. Photo: Michael Sheehan. @fishie_sarah and I sailed a 420 Dinghy out the harbour to the Pier and back. Stunning day with dolphins alongside and bitter bittersweet memories. My thanks to all who have brought great joy to my life over the many years that I have been a member of the Algoa Bay Yacht Club. My thanks to to @fishie_sarah for making that last sail just so much better and brighter – you have the power! #abycpe #portelizabeth #sailing #memories #family #children #joy – Taken by the Editor whilst wandering aimlessly about pretending to be in the know.

Alan Straton

Chief Cook, Bottle Washer and Broom Mechanic at MyPE
Passionate about Port Elizabeth and definitely NOT packing for Perth. Alan's ethos is epitomised in the words of Nelson Mandela; "I have fought against white domination and I have fought against black domination. I have cherished the idea of a democratic and free society. If need be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die." See more articles by Alan.
