TitleShellharbour boat crew surfing the wavePhoto Number002303Date1950-1960DescriptionSurfboat racing is one of the most spectacular events of a surf carnival, particularly in big seas. Crews of four rowers and a 'sweep' oarsman battle through the swells to the designated turning buoys, and then turn the boat back to row ashore through the breakers. Many hours of practice are necessary for boat crews to build their strength and teamwork.LocationManlyDonorCostello, Val
