  • 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.

She of STEADFAST. He is a tall, thin man with large, strong Swas built on the lines of JOLIE BRISE, the last of the hands, a long stride, and a reddish beard. He is calm, true working pilot cutters of Le Havre. Her story is one casual, meditative, joyous, unassuming, resolute, and that encompasses a love of traditional wooden boats, 16 determined. You might say he is stubborn—or perhaps years of construction, unique Australian timbers, a steadfast. He has a thoughtful, quiet manner of speak- Benedictine community, and the remarkable resolve ing, listens to others, and is open to suggestions. There and perseverance of the man behind it all, Laurence is something of a boyish enthusiasm in the way he talks Etheredge. about his boat.

  • The Tall Ships Races 2016
    Login Register Search >> Home News Events Vessels Sail On Board Host Ports About Us The Tall Ships Races 2016 Organised by Sail Training International The Tall Ships Races 2016 is looking forward to celebrating a diamond anniversary event. It will be exactly sixty years since the very first Tall Ships Race visited Lisbon, Portugal in 1956 - and the international fleet is returning for the eighth time. The first Tall Ships' Race in 1956 was a race of 20 of the world's remaining large sailing ships. The race was from Torbay, UK to Lisbon and was meant to be a last farewell to the era of the great sailing ships. However, public interest was so intense the Sail Training International Race Committee formed a founding organisation and has since organised Tall Ships' Races and Regattas annually around the world, attracting hundreds of ships and millions of spectators. Antwerp, Belgium will be hosting the event for the fourth time since its first event in 2001. Located in the heart of Europe it’s a pocket-sized metropolis and Europe’s second largest ports. Lisbon, Portugal will be welcoming the fleet after the first race leg for the seventh time since the races began. Entry form Cadiz, Spain is the oldest continuously-inhabited city in southern Spain and one of the oldest in southwestern Europe. Read A Coruna in northern Spain is a busy port located on a promontory in the entrance of an estuary in a large gulf on the Atlantic Ocean. It’s the richest region of Galicia - an autonomous community in northwest Spain ..

  • Our Tugs Are Essential for the Tall Ships Races
    Our tugs are essential for The Tall Ships Races [one-half-first] [/one-half-first][one- half] [/one-half] The Tall Ships Races 2017 reached Kotka, Finland, on July 13th. The magnificent sailing ships keep our tugs busy when they arrive and depart. - The bigger ships need of course our assistance. It is fun to tow sailing ships for a change, says Marko Lindström, the captain on our tug Akilles. Akilles assisted the huge Russian Mir to the berth together with our tug Harald. Mir is the second largest of six sister ships. She is 109.2 meters long, weighs 385 tons, has a beam of 13.9 meters and a draught of 6.3 meters. The main mast is 52 meters high and along with the other masts supports a total sail area of 2,771 square meters. According to captain Lindström, towing sailing ships is not like towing modern vessels. - We have to be a bit more careful. The sailing ships have trainee crews, which means that everyone on board is not necessarily acquainted fully out with towing operations. We must, of course, be careful when pulling also. We do not want to break any bollards. But everything has been just fine, we have not had any problems even though the berths are tight. I cannot complain about anything, says the captain with 20 years of towage experience. All four Alfons Håkans tugs in Kotka are needed when the tall ships are in town. The normal shipping traffic to and from the harbors of Kotka and Hamina does not stop just because a big fleet of beautiful sailing ships are visiting.
