…to Paul Spratt and Barry Duce who spent a lot of time and effort using their talents to make a great start on the Committee Boat refurbishment. She is already starting to look more ship shape. Also thank you to Gordon Sanders and Tony Clarke who have cleaned out both displacements ready for painting and antifouling.
