Jock Sturrock. Jock Sturrock - It is almost certain that Jock Sturrock (Royal Brighton) will skipper Australia's representative in the Star class Olympic yacht races off Torquay, England. Apart from the fact that Jock (aged 32 aid yachtsman for 25 years of them) has held the victorian and Australian star class championship since 1934, he has already had considerable success with small yachts on the Olympic course at Torquay. A chance meeting at the breakfast table in a London club led to Sir R.H. Anstruther - Gough-Calthorpe discovering he had done some yachting. January 27, 1948.
