  1. Sorry to belatedly learn this very sad news. Having been opposing captains in 1978 Bruce and I became fellow Swallow owners in the 1990’s and subsequently met intermittently at Generations events. Whilst rivalry continued friendship developed! He will be greatly missed.

  2. Immensely sad. Bruce had a great career in the Army and was an excellent sailor and a generally good chap.
