Postscript on Chas Stock & Shoal Waters

I received an email from Charles Stock today, in answer to questions I had asked while working up the article on him. Happy to say, Chas is in good health and so is Shoal Waters. They logged over 1000 nautical miles this season visiting all 13 rivers in the Thames estuary.  At 81 he's still going. Strong. Shoal is now hauled out for a refit while the weather is still good. An example to us all of what is possible.  Thanks also to Charles' son  Chris Stock for all his help.
