  • Merganser in the Hebrides 2018
    Merganser in the Hebrides 2018 Not counting the voyage from Tollesbury to Ardrossan on the back of a truck we travelled 1200 miles through the inner and Outer Hebrides in May, June, July and August 2018. ‘We’ comprised my wife Liz and I, the true boat-dog Jester and a series of friends for a week here and there. Merganser, a Haines 340 offshore motorboat proved the perfect boat for the trip. A displacement cruiser capable of 18 knots but giving us 400+ range at 8 knots, she had spent her previous few years as a flat in St Katharine’s Dock, hence the family nickname ‘The Sitting Duck’! With two Yanmar diesel engines, generator, 2 double cabins, two bathrooms, 2 large holding tanks, heater, sheltered steering position in a Bimini upstairs and panoramic views from inside the saloon she could hardly have been more perfect for a meander around the Scottish NW. All this and only 1.2m draft allowing access to all the most sheltered nooks and crannies. We chased the truck up the A1 on May 14th and finally caught up the next day just as Merganser was kissing the water in Ardrossan marina at the mouth of the Clyde. After a day of the usual preparation and making sure we had enough stores to be independent out in the islands we set off to Arran. Almost as we left Ardrossan the wind dropped away and the sun came out...it was the start of the amazing weather and, with hindsight, we could not have been luckier with the timing of our ‘sabbatical’! Before going further, it is probably worth setting the scene a little more.

  • Transcur Forestay in This Issue
    East Coast Old Gaffers Association Newsletter Aug ‘09 August 2009 Issue 80 Transcur Many readers will have heard that Transcur, area president Peter Thomas’s lovely smack, sank at her moorings on the Orwell sometime over the weekend 11th/12th July. Transcur was built in Brightlingsea in 889 and was comprehensively rebuilt by Peter over a number of years. The good news is that Transcur was quickly raised by a professional salvage team, then taken ashore at Pin Mill where a vast band of helpers, including many Dutch visitors, set to and stripped out and cleaned the interior. Miraculously, the engine restarted, but there is still an enormous amount of work to be done. However, Peter is confident she will be performing as usual in the August Classics Cruise. Transcur is probably most famous for her appearance in Frank Mulville’s book ‘Terschelling Sands’, where she was very nearly lost off the Dutch coast as a result of a navigational error. It is ironic that after 20 active years, she should succumb to something as mundane as a defective skin fitting. Forestay The sailing events so far this year have been well supported, with a number of new boats making their appearance. New faces are always welcome, but the arrival of new boats can sometimes Transcur make your committee scratch its collective head and spend time exploring the very ethos of the Old Gaffer movement. In this Issue Let me explain; the OGA was formed to ‘encourage interest in traditional gaff rig’ and to organise races for gaff rigged boats.

    JAMES DODDS JAMES DODDS 2018 www.messums.com 28 Cork Street, London W1S 3NG Telephone: +44 (0)20 7437 5545 1. Priscilla 3 3 oil on linen 100 x 100 cms 39 ⁄8 x 39 ⁄8 ins Foreword I became intrigued by James Dodds some years ago when I first read ‘Tide Lines’, the book about his life and work by fellow east coast citizen, Ian Collins, the two of them born ‘in an elemental region that has far more sky and water than earth.’ I was a judge of the New Angles prize, in the middle of writing my own Suffolk novel, immersed in the poems, stories, and images of East Anglia, but this was the book that touched me most. The quiet drama of Dodds’ life, the romance of it, the search for a story that he needed to tell, the satisfying culmination of finding it. In the years since, I have often leafed through its pages, admiring the detail of the lino prints, the beauty of the Essex landscapes, and above all, the paintings of the boats. The boats are Dodds’ masterpieces – his models – each one as different as a human sitter. Glossy, dilapidated, sturdy, elegant, we see them whole, aged, clothed, in disarray, stripped to their skeletal construction. He shows us the insides of them, the colours, chosen, and those that have evolved. He shows us what he sees, and makes it possible for us to see it. Now I find myself standing in his Wivenhoe studio. It is minutes from the house he shares with his wife Catherine and their two grown children, on the site of an abandoned ship yard.
