Thought this might help:
The Chap waving the boat off is the late Donald Hagenbach; Designer of the boat and owner of Windboats. The skipper was my late father Neville Blake, then "Windboats" sports boats manager, from which the outboard motor was donated.
That leaves the girl and boy; well my twin sister Wyn and my self Kim Blake
In part of the film you see me scampering round the back, I'm sure this was to turn the motor off. All I can remember is not being able to eat the food until the camera team were satisfied, and the food was prepared by my mum, who was told she had to hide on board to avoid being on camera.
You see no life jackets; my Mum was not happy, but this was to give the impression of total safety!
I would love to have a digital copy, being a star as so to speak
Many thanks
Kim Blake
