Nigel Sharp explores the fascinating history of St Mawes Sailing Club.
St Mawes Sailing Club was founded in 1920 and has functioned without interruption from that date, with the exception of the war years.
Today it is a vibrant club with around 1,800 members. Every year it provides numerous sailing opportunities – both for local people and for holiday visitors – including around sixty club races; championship events for at least half a dozen classes, both traditional and modern; several cruises-in-company to other local ports; and formal instruction and races for hundreds of children. Its magnificent clubhouse, which has stunning views of the start line and St Mawes Harbour, provides a comfortable and lively setting in which members and guests can meet socially.
Using a wonderful collection of photographs, Nigel Sharp tells the story of this remarkable club.
