Jack Daly shakes hands with our justly proud commodore, David Williams
The Hollowshore Cruising Club’s new premises were officially opened this weekend by one of its youngest and most venturesome members, Jack Daly.
Fitted out largely by the club’s members, the new premises are a credit to the volunteers who took on the work and to the club’s excellent chairman, David Williams. For more on the club itself, see its website.
I should explain that young Jack has just completed a round-Britain trip in his Coribee, named Padiwak. Some months before his 17th birthday, he left Ramsgate at the end of June this year, determined to get round before school started again. Supported by his amazing parents, who took turns to follow him round by road, Jack made it back to Ramsgate in mid-September after being delayed by weather – so he only missed a few weeks of his first term back. See Jack’s website.
In the process he raised £5000 for the Westbere Sailability Centre.
Just finished a Flying Mouse, and a standard Mouse for my grand kids in Las vegas. Found your book easy to work from. Thanks for all the work you have done for small boating. Bill Stroman
