History

CORMORANT was designed and built by A R Luke at Hamble in 1911. She was restored over a period of 14 years by Dick Planton and Peter Brookes. She is raced regularly at Maldon, Essex but was damaged in three-boat collision at Maldon Town Regatta in 2010. She was repaired later. February 2011 (Picture courtesy of Classic Boat)
