Sails owner was Kiwi Patrick S...he used to post on here as Rangatira...he built Sails and travelled up front Jl Padma Utara where he also owned accommodation hotel...not sure of the name but think it might have been Grand Sinar Indah Hotel ??, or something similar in the same area.'...I met him one day at Hotel Kumala Pantai while walking his beloved dog 'Jack'...he was devastated when Jack died after picking up a poisoned bait .
We had a long discussion, his father was a Kiwi doctor during the Vietnam War and based at Quy Nhong where my unit 32 Small Ship Squadron ( Army landing ship LSM) had visited after picking up Centurian tanks in Danang and taking them to Vung Tau (Australian HQ)
