I am very sad to inform everyone that Jonathan Abrahams (JKA) passed away today at Ysbyty Gwynedd. Jonathan was an accomplished sail maker, sailor and campaigned on many boats including his great success on the 1720, and helped enormously with racing in the bay, and helping all sailors with his sound advice, regarding sails and setup. Jonathan will be missed by all and we send our condolences to the family. Rest in peace

The Merlin Rocket was designed in 1946 by Jack Holt and by now there are over 3,700 boats built!
This is now considered to be the ultimate hiking dinghy for two people - refined over 70 years of development and an extremely modern class providing excellent racing throughout the UK.
The Flag Officers and members of Clwb Hwylio Pwllheli Sailing Club, are immensely saddened to hear of the passing of Ruth James. Ruth was a familiar face around the club and will be sadly missed. The club sends it's sincere condolences to all her family and friends. As a mark of respect we are postponing our Easter Party.
