Cetewayo

One of the loveliest local classics, Cetewayo navigates carefully around the dinghy start at Bursledon regatta recently. With Brooklands in the background it's a picture perfect setting.


Cetewayo was built and launched  on the Clyde by Morris & Lorrimar to a Laurent Giles design, originally named Zulu

  2. There is an article about David Murrin, Cetewayos owner in the August edition of Classic Boat magazine. He seems as interesting a character as his beloved classic yacht. He has an interesting theory - "I would make the argument that democracy started in Britain because of the ratio of our coastline to internal volume, because seafarers have to be independent of thought - they have ultimate responsibility for their actions. Consequently, it was not an accident that Britain was the first effective modern European democracy". Great stuff!!
