1968 The Penguin Regatta

 

Linda Critchlow & Andre Laframboise

In 1968 Andre Laframboise organised a Penguin International Regatta. The participants came from all over the Americas. Mostly they came from the US. The Penguin is an eleven foot open dinghy. 

My sister Linda crewed for Andre. She would have been thirteen. 

Here are two participants from Brazil. 

First, Second and Third place awards. 

I worked on a chase boat. I helped any boats that would have needed a tow.
