"Mike’s article in MiniWorld was great fun to read and helped me to remember all those races. They did sound great - so difficult to realise that it was about me!!! I now have an excellent record of my racing days!".

Christabel Carlisle (Lady Watson)

 

"Mike wrote two fascinating articles describing my thrilling days in powerboat racing during the 1960s and ‘70s for Motorboat and Yachting, which brought back many happy memories and some rather painful ones, too, recalling my bruises sustained in Guernsey".

Lady Violet Aitken

 

“My father, Cmdr. Peter du Cane, really appreciated the article Mike wrote, which was published in Motorboat & Yachting in 1979, about the work he had been involved with at Vosper over the previous 40 years. He kept it for the rest of his life and I still have it amongst his papers which I keep".

Charles du Cane
