Welcome to the first newsletter of 2015 and we take this opportunity to wish our members a prosperous new year. This year marks the anniversaries of many historical events. These include the Battle of Waterloo (200) 18th June 1815, Magna Carta (800) 15th June 1215, Battle of Agincourt (600) 15th October 1415, First English Parliament (750) 20th January 1265, Death of Sir Winston Churchill (50) 24th January 1965, VE Day (70) 8th May 1940 and, the most important, for Endeavour, the Dunkirk evacuation (75) 27th May to 4th June 1940.
This issue is tinged with sadness with the passing of Dave Spurgeon, trustee and committee member, but also able to recognise awards to our President Sir David Amess, committee member Finlay Marshall and friend John Milgate.

Thank you for your message. I'm afraid that to prevent spam, all comments are moderated but we will aim to approve it quicker than it takes to redo Endeavour's anti-fouling...
