    Wednesday 28 February

    7.30 p.m. GMT

    I will be doing a presentation to the Cruising Association of Ireland, over Zoom, called "An Irish Introduction to the Junk Rig", that will explain the main characteristics of the Junk Rig, it's history in "the West" and even in Ireland.  It is open to JRA members, and should take about 40 minutes, after which there will be a Q&A session.

    Unlikely that JRA members will learn a lot from this introductory talk, but it would be great if some JRA members were there to correct my mistakes!!!  Or just to say hello.

    Will post the Zoom link here in due time

    Fair play to you Kevin. I don't expect to be available but I'll set a reminder to try to join in if I can.

    Very interesting. Especially the historical aspect. The discussion was probably equally interesting...
