Boomerang's 2008 Log Norway the Shetland Islands St Kilda
Boomerang’s 2008 Log Norway The Shetland Islands St Kilda 2 April & May South Queensferry to Bergen Hardanger Fjord, Bomlo & Stord Selbjornsfjord to Lerwick Circumnavigation of The Shetland Islands Fair Isle The Orkney Islands Kirkwall to the River Tay Return to South Queensferry 2 3 The Preparations When my diagnosis of MND was confirmed in July 2007 I decided it was time to retire and start off-shore sailing. My first idea was to join the 2008 ARC and for this I needed to find a sailing companion, somebody either unemployed or able to throw off the shackles of labour for a few months. I posted adverts in local yacht clubs and subscribed to the crew-seekers website but without luck until my neighbour at Port Edgar Marina put me in touch with Mike Bowley. We first met in September and I discovered he was an experienced yachtsman, out of work, and although not available to sail south to the Canaries that October, we agreed to cross to Norway the following April. It was a long term ambition of mine to sail to Bergen and somehow I preferred this to sitting in the Caribbean sun. Boomerang is a 35ft Hustler with fin keel and skeg, built in 1971. When I bought her in 2004 I kept her on west coast to sail and make her seaworthy. This meant replacing the sea-cocks and hoses, improving the cockpit drainage, up-grading the primary fuel system and replacing switch panels and most of the wiring. To satisfy the insurers, my gas stove supply also needed modernised but as this would also involve fitting sensors and alarms, I ditched the gas stove overboard and bought a spirit Origa twin burner top stove instead. -

Accounting for the Fund The Companies Act 1985 does not apply to all public bodies but the principles that underlie the Act’s accounting and disclosure requirements are of general application: their purpose is to give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the body concerned. The Government therefore has decided that the accounts of public bodies should be prepared in a way that conforms as closely as possible with the Act’s requirements and also complies with Accounting Standards where applicable. The accounts are prepared in accordance with accounts directions issued by the Secretary of State for Transport. The Fund’s accounts consolidate the General Lighthouse Authorities’ (GLAs) accounts and comply as appropriate with this policy. The notes to the Bishop Rock Lighthouse accounts contain further information. Section 211(5) of the Merchant Shipping Act 1995 requires the Secretary of State to lay the Fund’s accounts before Parliament. -

T)OPULARLY, the lighthouse seems to be looked A upon as a modern invention, and if we con- sider it in its present form, completeness, and efficiency, we shall be justified in limiting its history to the last centuries but as soon as men to down two ; began go to the sea in ships, they must also have begun to ex- perience the need of beacons to guide them into secure channels, and warn them from hidden dangers, and the pressure of this need would be stronger in the night even than in the day. So soon as a want is man's invention hastens to it and strongly felt, supply ; we may be sure, therefore, that in the very earliest ages of civilization lights of some kind or other were introduced for the benefit of the mariner. It may very well be that these, at first, would be nothing more than fires kindled on wave-washed promontories, 10 LIGHTHOUSES OF ANTIQUITY. -
Trwyn Du Lighthouse
U.S. Lighthouse Society ~ Lighthouses of the United Kingdom Trwyn Du Lighthouse (Puffin Island, South East Anglesey) A NON-PROFIT HISTORICAL & EDUCATIONAL SOCIETY U.S. Lighthouse Society ~ Lighthouses of the United Kingdom History The island of Anglesey, off the coast of North Wales, must be rounded by coastal shipping making the passage up or down the western seaboard, and as a consequence of its position in a busy seaway has several major lights. Skerries was built first, followed a century later by South Stack and Point Lynas, the latter after the wreck of the ʺRothesay Castleʺ on Puffin Island at the entrance to the Menai Strait in 1830. The Liverpool master pilots had already been consulted about the necessity for a light on the shore at Black Point, or Trwyn‐du, but no action was taken until late in the 1830s when Trinity House built the present station at a cost of £11,589. The lighthouse is situated on a low‐lying rock surrounded by shingle beaches about half a mile south of Puffin Island. The circular stone tower is distinguished by three black bands. The lighthouse was originally manned by two keepers, however these were withdrawn in 1922 when the lighthouse was converted to unwatched acetylene operation. Trwyn Du Lighthouse was converted to solar power in 1996, work to modernize the station included the development of a unique operating mechanism to work the 178 Kg fog bell.

News Sheet August/September 2011
NEWS SHEET AUGUST/SEPTEMBER 2011 Editorial This newsletter covers two strongly contrasting months. We had Danielle Gibas August with the National Whale and Dolphin Watch and its boom in Sightings Officer sightings followed by unfortunate bad weather in September and an inevitable decrease in reports. Although some species cropped up reliably in all the expected places, we also had a few unexpected sightings of sei and sperm whales in the Hebrides, some interesting strandings around the UK and fascinating bottlenose behaviour in Cardigan Bay. All this goes to show that sheer determination pays off and by being in the field as much as possible you eventually end up being in the right place at the right time… I’d like to thank all of our observers and regional coordinators who braved the sometimes uncooperative weather and sent in sightings thick and fast throughout the NWDW weekend and the rest of the season. Keep up the fantastic work! NEWS D Day for 10 th National Whale and Dolphin Watch As you all know, we celebrated our 10 th annual National Whale & Dolphin Watch (NWDW) on 5 th to 7 th August this year. Watches were held all around the country and we reached 434 sightings of cetaceans throughout the event and the week that followed. The event was a great success and we’d like to thank all our regional coordinators and observers who organised watches and events and submitted their sightings and effort data to us. The 2012 NWDW will be held on 27 th to 29 th July 2012 . -
