Harold Mann was a longstanding member to the HSC who died in October 2004. I felt that the articles which Harold wrote many years ago for our modest club  newsletter deserved a wider audience, so see here for Harold's experiences during the 1950s, working on commercial small ships and sailing barges on the East Coast of the UK. Following these experiences Harold continued a career in the Merchant Navy and in later years worked on the sludge boats which carried waste from London sewage works to be dumped well out in the southern end of the North Sea.
