Grand Masters of the Surf

Veterans

The veteran sea dogs of Cottesloe – the Harmony Crew – fronted up at the studio on Saturday in their rowing regalia for the “Gun’s Up!” portrait project.

Led by Owen “Major” Ashby, the boys got in line and posed for photos. The old adage “age shall not weary them” was indeed true for the Cott veterans crew, as these big lads were brimming with energy and good humour, despite the fact that two of them had recently had surgery.

Thanks to Owen Ashby for organising the “old boys” of Cottesloe.
