  • Jolie Brise a Teignmouth Story
    THE JOLIE BRISE A TEIGNMOUTH STORY By Clare McComb J12433_JolieBrise_Story_DL_V10.indd 1 15/10/2015 09:22 Putting this little book together has been a pleasure because of the exciting way in which the project has unfolded and the warmth and generosity of those, in Teignmouth and beyond, who have helped to make it happen. My thanks go, first, to J D Wetherspoon for its policy of researching local history and, in particular, to Tim Martin for his sponsorship. I am indebted to Lin Watson and the Teign Heritage Museum team for their wonderful, comprehensive advice and technical assistance, as well as to Viv Wilson MBE for allowing me to use her splendidly researched material. My gratitude also goes to Sidney Briggs’ relations who could not have done more to help, searching their attics and storage boxes to reveal documents and artefacts which had been unknown beforehand outside of the family circle. Toby Marris, skipper of Jolie Brise, and Sue Stone, from Dauntsey’s School, have (as always) been constantly generous with their time, support and permission to use their beautiful images of the boat. I am grateful to Jacques Taglang, Dauntsey’s School and Rick Tomlinson, Syd Hook’s daughters Jill and Sandra, the Mystic Seaport Museum USA (Rosenfeld Collection) and the Warneford, Martin and Morgan Giles families for allowing use of their photographs in the book. My thanks go, lastly, to Jolie Brise herself. Since her launch in 1913, she has always been thought of as special and is now one of the great iconic classic boats. Her exploits helped to jump-start the sport of British Ocean Racing, and her achievement in winning the Fastnet Race three times has not yet been equalled.

  • Paine, Ships of the World Bibliography
    Bibliography The bibliography includes publication data for every work cited in the source notes of the articles. It should be noted that while there are more than a thousand titles listed, this bibliography can by no means be considered exhaustive. Taken together, the literature on the Titanic, Bounty, and Columbus’s Niña, Pinta, and Santa María comprises hundreds of books and articles. Even a comprehensive listing of nautical bibliographies is impossible here, though four have been especially helpful in researching this book: Bridges, R.C., and P. E. H. Hair.

Ross McRae’s plank on frame model of the 1889 Port Phillip Bay paddle tug ‘Rescue’. Photo by Tony Weaver. EDITORIAL. This is the final ‘Bilge Water’ that I will assemble in its current form, that is to say, 16 or 20 stapled A4 pages. More than five years ago I willingly undertook the editorship of the unglamorously titled ‘Bilge Water’ in the belief that the newsletter is an essential communication component in any organization and a quasi historical record as well. In my case it has been the happy conjunction of a reprographic exercise that is part of my profession as a cartographer with a background in electronic computing; my enthusiasm as an amateur but clumsy photographer; my pedagogic approach to the English language in accordance with the OED and my obsession for model engineering in general and model boats in particular. Now, after twenty or so issues, which I am pleased to say have been distributed on their scheduled dates as a self imposed discipline, the newsletter is becoming stereotyped and is in need of new ideas by others. Hogarth is getting too big for his boots and on a couple of occasions has come perilously close to lift off.

  • Back for Round 2 Jolie Brise
    BACK FOR ROUND 2 That’s right! I’m back on my placement – a new placement this time. After a long break over the winter months, I’ve returned to the Shipshape programme to join Pioneer Sailing Trust as their trainee for 5 months. This is to ‘make up’ for the lost sailing time from last year’s season due to the Covid-19 restrictions. Last year I was in Lowestoft (with the Excelsior Trust) but this year I’m a little bit down the coast in Brightlingsea. So, at the beginning of this month there’s been a fair amount of travel involved, you can check out my stops on the map opposite. I took the ferry from Belfast to Liverpool, then drove my new shore-side accomodation in Colchester, but then almost straight away - I was back on the road and on my way to Hamble! Before I’d even crossed the threshold at Pioneer, I was invited by the boss of Jolie Brise (Dauntsey School) to join them for about 2 weeks – which would include their staff training – arranged to facilitate some essential ‘back to sea’ training for their crew and school staff as they would soon be able to take their pupils back out to sea. I was going to be there with Jess (a fellow Shipshape trainee), and Alanna (Pioneer’s trainee from last year, she works there now!) JOLIE BRISE We arrived after a long drive on Tuesday 6th April, and I was so impressed with Jolie Brise! She’s a gorgeous pilot cutter, and I was really struck by how well she had been taken care of (and all the modern tech on board too!).
