Description

Some short footage of what was meant to have been a record attempt for water-skiing from Donaghadee in Co Down to Portpatrick in Scotland. We don’t know if the attempt was successful but it may have helped if some footage of the actual water-skiing was shot. As such the footage serves only as general views of the harbour in the 1960s.
