Angus Primrose
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Angus Primrose (missing at sea, 1980) was a designer and naval architect whose most well-known designs for around the world races included the Gypsy Moth IV of Sir Francis Chichester and Galway Blazer II (1969) of Commander Bill King.
Primrose is presumed to have drowned during a gale "some 180 miles off the South Carolina coast" which sunk his 33ft yacht (a Moody 33), the Demon of Hamble.[1]
