Sadly, at the age of 92, Ken Duxbury has passed away. With his wife B, he sailed a drascombe from Greece back to the Uk. The Lugworm Chronicles is the book I am reading now. An obituary can be found at the above website address

  2. Sad news indeed. Ken taught me to sail when I was very young, and gave me a love of sailing and the sea which still informs my life to this day.

  3. It is sad. I am reading Lugworm Chronicles at the moment. A great loss to the sailing community and I know all our thoughts and sympathies are with B and family
