Many thanks for that.learnt more from that in 5 mins than all the years in the Nelson club,many of them sailed with him.I know the last years of his life he suffered much dissapointment from the admiralty over his designs.its the old story when trying to fight the old guard if only he had succeeded.He had a sad end i think and like to think if he is about somewhere our efforts to keep his old boat going may bring a smile to his face.I certanly felt that on a particular run back from brighton with a force 8 on the nose
i wasnt the only one having fun.
The dutch boat komer is still about but stripped of its cats and turned into a leisure boat it was an exact copy of Horatia.
