    You ae all too kind.  But thank you anyway.  And of course none of it would have happened without David's design.  Or, for that matter, being apprenticed to Pete through so many boats built and restored.

    BRAVO!!      A very impressive labor of love.   Like many here, you can count me among Annie's fervent admirers.   Her passion for sailing and adventure and her writings have been an inspiration to me......... The fodder for dreams I hope someday will be more than mere dreams.   A more deserving recipient would be difficult if not impossible to find!!

    The Royal Cruising Club has awarded Annie Hill the rarely given Bluebird Cup for the conception, construction (with her own hands) and launch of FanShi – her junk rigged shoal draught 8m cruiser.

    Congratulations and well deserved.
