PE surfing legend who made mark as a helmeted youngster dies at 61

As a young boy, he injured his head surfing and, to avoid a ban by his parents, he agreed to wear a construction hat while out on the waves – and so Wyndham “Turtle” Morris got his nickname. The Port Elizabeth surfer and surf shop owner died on Friday, aged 61.
