Frank Bedford's contribution to history

Published Thu 18 Jun 2026

Frank Bedford was well known on the water and in 1959 he took it upon himself to document every sailing boat in the lower Murray and most of the motor launches as well.

In 2016 Geoff Byrnes was given a copy of his journal by Frank's grand daughter, Jan (Egan) Skewes, and those pages are now available for reference on our website.
