Is there any reason Y&Y have chosen to ignore the death of one of our foremost yachtsmen of the seventies. After all he was in the winning Admirals cup team. Won the RTI three times and I think the Sydney -Hobart.

especially as he was still keen on yachting to his death. I believe he was a member of Broadstairs sailing club in Kent plus he went to my school! Edited by hurricane |

He use to race during Burnham week and would be found in the sailing
clubs during the evening, seemed like a nice 'normal' guy who was very
keen on sailing.
May heavenly winds always fill your sails Ted Heath! |
