Gobsmacked!

Gobsmacked! It was only natural for me to compare the Volvo Ocean Race setup in Cape Town with Port Elizabeth’s recent hosting of the SAP 5O5 World Championships. And the conclusion? PE has a lot of catching up to do! #capetown #volvooceanrace #portelizabeth #sailing - Taken by the Editor whilst wandering aimlessly about pretending to be in the know. … [Read more...] about Gobsmacked!
