RohanIt was with great sadness that I learnt of the passing of Cyril.
Our world is a lessor place with his loss.
I was privileged to have known Cyril since my Teens, he was one of life’s true Gentlemen. I always admired the way Cyril could master any challenge that he chose to undertake and he undertook many.
Cyril was an inspiration to all, it was Cyril who inspired my passion for sailing a passion that still grows after more than 50 years.
