Cape Town - One of Port Elizabeth's most beloved institution is due to close down, following an eviction by the Transnet National Ports Authority (TNPA).

After more than 60 years as a prominent landmark in the Port Elizabeth harbour, the Algoa Bay Yacht Club (ABYC) was given a boot after a draft court order was granted by the Port Elizabeth High Court in August, requesting that the club, effectively, vacate after six months.

The TNPA claims the club owed them almost R2 million in an overdue rental after it couldn't fork out more than R49 000 a month.
