Wayfarer Worlds
a few snapshots by
Uncle
Al

This was the year of the video
for Uncle
Al so that there are few stills available to me at this time.
Any further contributions would be most
welcome!

a crew hard at work - this pic
reminds
my weird mind of the the Steeplejack joke told by Nick Hodshon at this
Worlds: unfortunately, the joke needs gestures so cannot be repeated
here,
but I'll be glad to tell it to you live!

and Geoff
Hodshon - no burnt nose for the latter at this Worlds!!

A picture is worth 1000 words?

The two grand old men of
Wayfarers: Ian
Proctor (l), the designer and life-long Wayfarer supporter
with George Blanchard of Canada who has
been
sailing Wayfarers since 1958 and at this writing,
is 89 years old and the only one to
have
sailed every one of the 11 Wayfarer Worlds between 1974 and 2001!

Uncle Al and Geoff Hodshon: the
"buddies"
from the '86 Worlds are reunited!
..
|
|
As always, the Worlds
culminated in a
superb awards banquet ...
..
|
|
|
... with equally superb guests!
I believe
this is Stuart Rix' wife?
