    [http://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] Fantastic research! I am sidetracked by Colonel A Spain though, particularly as my first thought was that the man second from right holding the programme, was him instead. This photo in particular looks like him. This photo also looks like him, more so than the man to the left. Plus this album is also interesting. See photo 12, caption says '[Colonel Bruxner, Judge Alfred Paxton Backhouse, the Captain and Colonel A.Spain and party at the Anniversary Regatta, 1937]'. Judge Backhouse is third from left in bowler hat, Colonel Bruxner is second from left, the Captain centre and then Colonel A Spain second from right. Regarding it being a regatta flagship, we thought so too, not just because of the presence of VIPs, but because of the flags in the background. By the way, great spotting in terms of the programme!

    [http://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] Hmmm, it is difficult to be sure especially as it is only his profile visible in this pic. It's interesting also in the pic you linked to, do you think the man to his left looks a bit like the man we thought was Spain in our pic? I think that probably the case re the yachties! :)

    [http://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] Nice! Caption amended. :) Still lookin' at that Colonel Spain though... :P

    [http://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] Nice one!! I also thought the bow-tie chap was D.L. (Douglas) Dowdell based on the links you provided. Same look really. Also think you may be correct re Evans, Thorne and Garlick. Well done!! Records updated. :)

    [http://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] thanks for sharing the extra pics! Great to see more newspapers being digitised. I'm excited by all the new information that will become available and all the photographs that will therefore be unlocked :) So great to identify faces within our collection, thank you so much quasymody!

    Pano shot from 2008, some things never change much. Edited 20/4/09. Put on link to show that things have not changed much in the last hundred odd years. I would really recommend anyone who gets the change to visit, as no picture I have seen does the setting credit not even our 100 year old picture above. Sorry if there was any confusion.

    I am always interested in history. This is very interesting stuff. I have a series on my Flickr site in my sets where I have done a similar thing to places here in Australia. Most of the pics have been taken about 20 years apart.
