As part of the Club’s on going support for Island based young people especially those from under privileged families we sponsored Kuba Frankowski from the Cowes Sea Cadets.

He spent a week onboard the TS John Jerwood, an MFV type of vessel and has sent us a copy of his diary which shows how a youngster can benefit through various forms of sail training. There was no way that Kuba’s Mother could have afforded to send her son on such a trip and if, as has happened with other sea cadet, it prepares him for a career in the Royal Navy, it is good to feel our Youth Charity has helped him on his way in life.
