Surf Life Saving boats, including the North Steyne club, racing on harbour

I think that is Shelley Beach in Manly in the background. Never knew it was called Cabbage Tree Bay, according to - GoogleMapsSatelliteView. Just around the corner from the Manly Surf Club.

Alison Guesdon Any proof? ! From the North Steyne SLSC website - " Club legend Rastus Evans was the first ever to take a boat crew out and “crack the bommy”, which still breaks dauntingly in front of North Steyne SLSC in big swells today. He recalled the monster wave stood the boat perpendicular. “Then the boat and crew disappeared as the wave came down ... there was nothing but swirling foam. The boat drove on underwater and I was sure they’d all be drowned.” They survived and the North Steyne boat Bluebottle, so named because they stung everyone on the beach to pay for it, dominated surf carnivals and conducted astonishing rescues in giant swells for years come. North Steyne SLSC is the club that invented the distinct coloured caps worn by lifesavers all over the country today. It also held 21 of the first 26 bronze medallions ever awarded, is still the only surf club to have three gold medal winners at a single Olympic Games –1924 in Paris – and is the only club to win eight Australian open surf boat titles. " I think this might be the legendary H. C. "Rastus" Evans as sweep on the near boat. trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/result?q=%22rastus+Evans%22&am...
