SYDNEY HYDROPLANE CLUB ...Leon's Album








So much history in these images. Again we delve into Leon's incredible archives from the golden era. These slides were taken at Budgewoi, Lake Munmorah (southern side) in around about 1967/68 where the Sydney Hydroplane Club were conducting time trials. Pictured at top is of course none other than 'Mr. Hydroplane' Ernie Nunn's legendary "WASP" and "WASP TOO" ...amazing photos! Thanks so much to Leon and Family for sharing.

Still plenty more installments yet to come from this golden collection, stay tuned. Until then, please check out the complete album so far >>> aussieskiboats.blogspot. //Leon%27s%20Album
