Silver Jubilee Trophy

This is presented to a member who has shown an ability to extend his/her/their sailing ability beyond our normal horizons

Martin Goodchild

Martin made three long-distance cruises in 2018-9, further than he had sailed before, and well outside his previous experience.

1) Azores to Falmouth, with Bob and Elaine Hazel, on Pipistrelle

2) Baltic to Netherlands

3) Portsmouth to Cascais on Amoret

Very intrepid, Martin.  We're all jealous, really.
