Our video archive is fully searchable, and linked to all the clubs and classes in our database. It is updated weekly with the latest videos of sailing, but here we delve into the past, and round-up everything that shows sailing in 16 foot skiffs.

The oldest video is from the Norman Knott trophy race and shows 16 Footers on Sydney Harbour in 1947.

Next in chronological order are the excellent videos from Youtuber MrFlemo13, who has a vast collection to show us from St George Sailing Club (Botany Bay, Sydney). We will list the links, but not embed every video as that might make the page crash!

Next, some 16ft Skiff action on Belmont Bay in 1993/94.

Finally, here are Rush 16ft Skiffs 1995 at Mounts Bay SC (Swan River).
