A History of St Mawes Sailing Club by Nigel Sharp

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.
Nigel Sharp spent 35 years in various project management positions in the boatbuilding industry before becoming a freelance marine writer and photographer in 2010. He is a lifelong sailor who currently owns a 1963 Nordic Folkboat and he is the Commodore of St Mawes Sailing Club.
