TONI JOUBERT
Chairperson, Parks & gardens

Toni and Peter Joubert settled in the Marina during 1999, some years before Peter retired . Peter was a partner in a Cape Town legal firm, and Toni had practised as a Psychiatric occupational therapist and later when their two daughters had left school, was involved in counseling and training at Lifeline. Both enjoy outdoor activities – sailing, canoeing, walking, and exploring South Africa and its neighbours – and Toni is a keen gardener. They have come to love the marina lifestyle and are happy to be involved in dealing with Marina affairs and caring for this unique area. Peter was co-opted onto ExCom to fill the legal portfolio about a year after they arrived in the Marina; and Toni took over the portfolio of parks and Gardens from Erna Maclean in 2006.

JOHN RIDLEY
Standards, waterways

John served in the Royal Air Force in England and the Pacific and became a professional diver working on offshore oil and gas rigs in many parts of the world. He rose through the industry and became a consultant, acting for oil companies in respect of offshore operations. After retiring in 2003 he moved to South Africa, and the Marina. Despite retirement he is still called upon in a consultant capacity from time to time. Before moving to South Africa lived in the Norfolk Broad area of Eastern England, similar in many ways to the Marina area, but without mountains!

GERRY BUSH
Standards inspector

Gerry was a member of Excom holding the security portfolio a couple of years ago and has lived in the Marina for 14 years. He is a retired retail executive with over 50 years in retailing, a very keen angler, and thinks the Marina is the greatest place to be.

PAUL VAN HEESCH
Security

Paul grew up in Holland, so it was natural for him to like the water, as he was surrounded by it most of the time. The obvious thing for him to do was to join the Dutch Merchant Navy as Navigation Officer. He immigrated to South Africa in 1966. Paul and Marguerite invested 12 years ago in the Marina and have been living here permanently for the last 4 years. He retired 8 years ago from a long life in the textile trade, but keeps himself busy as Management Consultant for Small and Medium size businesses. At present he is Chairman of the Uitsig Security Association.
