Didn’t he get into the RYA’s knickers after he left “Avengers”, Bendey, Pascoe and Grant Wilson ! I used to catch sight of him officiating at some of the better class offshore races .
Whatever happened to John Reed——- used to be a butcher up in Lancashire—— drove a double MM Levi in the OI class——— he was Another that got a job with the RYA.
We all had hopes he would be a great rep for powerboating———- but, he changed tack and went with the rag and sticks brigade!

Walker and Reed
Have no idea what John got up to after MB&Y. I only know of John Reed by reputation. Last I heard about him was when his son got badly injured when they were testing on the south coast. I think the RYA must be a malevolent force! People's character seems to change once they get in bed with them. Personally I'd rather eat my own liver than have anything to do with them. If only all the circuit racers felt the same. Then maybe we could do what the OCRDA are doing.

Was an honest all round boat——— gave a good account of herself wherever we ran——— surprised everyone in the Paris Six Hours by running with Spalding and Percival for the first two hours.
Had a very sad ending !

Well it looks like Ben Ainsley got all the cash he needs to have a serious crack at the AMERICAS CUP this time———- He had a serious look at the situation and realised he wasn’t kitted out the way the Kiwis were.
”UNLIMITED” resources means he can’t hide unless he brings back that damned trophy!
I have seen one or two snippets of the new ship——- again , well only get to see what Ben wants us to see———— there’s more secret sh-t going on in that class of racing than JamesBond ever dreamed about!
