Julian Goldie - President

Julian GoldieMy father’s interest in sailing meant that I grew up on and around boats. We spent our holidays on board the family yacht “Rosa Maria”. I became involved in the Club at an early age, when it was then situated above the Marina Office.

Tollesbury Cruising Club is a subsidiary of Tollesbury Marina of which I am currently a partner with Louise. I have been involved with the management of Tollesbury Marina for the last 24 years and I enjoy all aspects of sailing and powerboats.

Peter Philpot  - Commodore

Peter PhilpotI started sailing at Tollesbury back in the early 70's aboard a Peter Duck class wooden yacht called "Golden Eye". I then spent some 20 years racing various yachts at Burnham on Crouch before I came to my sense's and realised that I should be cruising! My last boat (recently sold) was "Diana" a Cornish Yawl which I sailed back from the Beaulieu River to Tollesbury and simply just enjoyed sailing the East coast again. Looking now to buy a larger yacht, when I can find one that suits!!

I currently sail Moonshine, a Maxi 1100, enjoying social and racing events with TCC along the East Coast and venturing occasionally to France, Belgium and Holland.

I also do voluntary work for the Tall Ships Youth Trust charity on their Challenger Yachts which has enabled me to take part in longer ocean passages.

Jose Zalabardo - Committee Member

Jose ZalabardoI started sailing in 2003. In the next six years I sailed over 6000 miles in twenty different boats. In 2009 I bought my first yacht, Scallywag, a Dehler 31, and brought it to Tollesbury. Scallywag is crewed some times by my wife Inma and our children Clara, 16, Alicia, 14, and Damian, 9, and sometimes by friends. I enjoy club cruises and races, although I never do very well in the races. I’m still getting to know our wonderful cruising grounds.
