HINDMARSH HOWLER .....the "TREMBLA" album




Jamie has pieced together this awesome Everingham purely for hooning and getting out there in the mix of things. Early glass hull and mouth watering blown 350 Chev make a very nice recipe.
Cheers to S.A. stalwart Thommo for answering my excited requests for more pics of this cracker spotted in the recent GOOLWA AQUAFEST post ... thing looks nuts!!

the "TREMBLA" album: "LINDA - K" & friends @ Goolwa



We finally get to see Jeff's beloved "LINDA - K" in action ...mainly because he's usually behind the camera so thanks to snaparazzi whomever ;). Look's like you's had a ball! Hopefully a more in depth feature down the track on this magic skiff... a beautiful piece of South Australian history.

GOOLWA AQUAFEST .......April 13 & 14


An event open to all speedboats / ski boats, vintage to modern. 

Saturday, Show & Shine, you can also run your boat all day as you please. 
There is the old racing coarse set out for you to run around. 

Sunday, Racing demonstrations, boats are grouped into "like" classes. 
Rolling start behind starting boat, flag drops, run for a few laps until the checkered flag is waved. 

Not actual racing, just a demonstration of racing. Run at your own pace. 
Awesome fun 
Download entry form from the Goolwa Aquatic Club website
Regards, Jeff 





















WOW !! Thanks so much for sharing these shots of last years event Thommo, very appreciated.

Aquafest is undoubtly one of the greatest gatherings of Australia's most beautiful speedboats, these shot's should be enough to tempt YOU to make the pilgrimage ... two jam packed days of speedboating heaven ;)
