EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph captures a moment frozen in time - the Easter meeting of the New City Sand Yachting Club at Bognor Regis on April 19th, 1927. The image showcases a sand yacht gracefully gliding across the sandy beach, propelled by its billowing sail. In this peculiar sporting event, men clad in their finest attire embrace the thrill of driving these novelty vehicles along England's picturesque coastline. The landscape is transformed into a playground for these daring enthusiasts who seek adventure and excitement.
