    Am I correct in recalling that Hi-Fi was a WA speedboat?

      "HI-FI" was a Sydney skiff. I'm guessing club flag could be St. George (someone please correct if wrong about flag).
      Many "HI-FI"s over the years and would not be surprised if one was sold to a west coast racer? I'll keep an eye open for more info in the archives.

    also worth noting, G.Robinson 'FRANKLIN" as in Franklin Caravans, major distributors and eventual owners of Filam ...man of great taste ;)
