Mike Edwards (1931 - 2018) of Evesham was a well-known local historian and poet and a member of the SRCC. Mike worked first as a market gardener and later as a teacher but he always wanted to be a sailor. In 1988 Mike volunteered as a civilian Watch Officer aboard the original TS Royalist and during the next 11 years he made 16 voyages in that capacity.

Mike kept very detailed accounts of his voyages and recorded audio cassette tapes of the first 13 voyages. These are those tapes - Mike's own story of "A Dream Realised".
