Summary
Apologizing for failing to reply to his postcard but suggesting that he may have been "... on the move a great deal at the time - between England, Ireland & Brittany. I am very glad it's all right & that your candidature for the Club is arranged for. You must compete for the Cruising Cup & astonish us all with a wonderful singlehanded cruise."
