Volunteer Bob joins Sailability SW team 

New Regional Organiser for the South West

Bob Scull, retired policeman and co-founder of Dart Sailability in Dartmouth, has joined RYA Sailability’s south west team as its second Regional Organiser.

In his work with groups in Devon and Cornwall, he will be applying his invaluable experience of developing a highly successful sailing group for people with disabilities.  

Bob retired from the police force in 1996 but soon got involved in local sailing for disabled people and co-founded Dart Sailability in Dartmouth. He spent the next  ten years as chairman of the group, developing sailing for disabled children and adults.  

He greatly increased the numbers of sailors and volunteers and also ensured the group became an RYA-recognised teaching centre, enabling them to run their own RYA proficiency courses. 

He is now president of Dart Sailability and still volunteers. He lives in Seaton.  

Bob will be working alongside Regional Organiser Vic Rolfe.
