Built by: Jan Pekelharing Orrelbou (1997)
- Onder advies van Albert Troskie en Chris Dowdeswell bouwde de firma Pekelharing in de jaren 1992-1997 een vierklaviers concert orgel voor de Veremarksaal in Port Elizabeth. Het zou eigenlijk worden gebouwd door de firma Rieger, maar dat is niet doorgegaan. Pekelharing bouwde het nieuwe orgel met gebruik van materiaal uit het oude orgel en een ander Engels orgel.
- De dispositie is van het ontwerp van Rieger. Of dit ook door Pekelharing is gevolgd is niet bekend, maar ook niet waarschijnlijk.
