Nick Stratton Death

Nick Stratton was a big character on the Clyde being based at Rhu and from NI. I did my Competent Crew in 1980 on one of his Ruffian 22 designs and sailed on a few Sigma 33’s sold out of his agency. I never knew him directly, only through association of others, and he was big racer on the Clyde circuit. The 80’s were a glorious era for Clyde racing, very popular, competitive and well attended, and he was part of that.
