History of the Royal Cruising Club Pilotage Foundation

History of the Royal Cruising Club Pilotage Foundation

Nigel Wollen has written an account of the origins of the Pilotage Foundation which appeared in Marine Quarterly

NIgel Wollen was until recently chairman of the Foundation and is author of The Baltic Sea and Approaches. He has been ably assisted by his predecessors Kit Power and Christopher Thornhill to write an interesting and entertaining article about the establishment and development of the Pilotage Foundation.

The article appeared in the Spring 2024 edition of the Marine Quarterly which has been established by its editor, Sam Llewellyn, as a new kind of journal, reporting subjects of strong interest to everyone who goes on or thinks about the sea. It is full of big, authoritative articles on sailing, fisheries, adventuring, merchant shipping, conservation, natural history, heritage, trade, naval matters, nautical books, and anything else connected with salt water.
