He along with Janet and son Tom are buried in Mawnan churchyard, (13th century Church of St Mawnan and St Stephen), overlooking the Helford River in Cornwall. The grave is hard to find but the names are quite clearly marked when found. 78.144.234.33 (talk) 20:57, 19 May 2015 (UTC) I remembered how I found this out and subsequently visited grave.

His book Yacht Cruising (first edition 1910) helped popularize the sport of cruising in small sailboats. Olin J.

Offshore Yachts, 1987, p. 45). 64.228.209.137 (talk) 20:25, 27 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
