The Les Maloney Photo Collection
featuring HOW-DO and others

 

A selection of photos I received from Les Maloney Jnr. taken during the 1950's of his father Les Maloney
and his skiff, HOW-DO, when campaigning the boat around Victoria. A wonderful glimpse into the boat racing
scene of more than 60 years ago.
