FROM THE ARCHIVES
The catamaran makes its racing debut
On the 18th July 1968 the first outboard catamaran made its racing debut on Oulton Broad. Named Akamo the craft built in Austria by Dieter Schulze and powered by a 115hp Mercury and entered by Patrick Atkinson from Gt Yarmouth.
Initially it was a handful and many thought this type of craft would never been successful and it took several weeks before it could challenge the dominate runabouts. M.W.
On this day the first annual dinner
Christmas party night
