December 2021

By Hanneke Boon

We are very sad to announce that on the 14th December James Wharram left this earthly world, joining Ruth, Jutta and his many close friends that departed before him. At 93 years old his spirit has set out on the voyage to sail the oceans of heaven.

James was a trailblazer, a fighter with great determination and vision. From a young age he followed his passions - to roam the hills - for fair politics - for intelligent women - to sail the seas - to prove the Polynesian double canoe an ocean worthy craft - to become a Man of the Sea.

These passions made him into a pioneer of catamaran sailing and a world-renowned designer of unique double-canoe catamarans that now sail the oceans. He designed for people who wanted to break out of mundane lives, gave them boats they could build at an affordable cost and gave them the opportunity to become People of the Sea like himself.

His chosen life was never easy, he would always fight convention and conventional thinking head on. His passionate and multi-faceted personality was very attractive to strong, independent women who helped him in his pursuits, starting with the steadfast Ruth, without whom he would never have reached his goals. Young Jutta joined them on their pioneering ocean voyages and was the mother of his first son. Sadly she died very young from mental illness as a result of her traumatic WWII childhood experiences.

James lived his entire life openly with more than one woman at the same time, as many as five in his prime in the 1970s, with whom he built and sailed his boats. Alongside Ruth, who died eight years ago at the age of 92, I was his other life partner and soul mate. I first met James when he was in the full flow of designing his range of Classic Designs in the 1960s, which led to him becoming a cult figure in the alternative society of 1970s. In time I became his design partner and together with Ruth we were an unbreakable unit. I gave birth to his second son and together we gave birth to many new double canoe designs.

James achieved everything he set out to do in this lifetime, but only received public recognition from the establishment in more recent years. The final project was his autobiography, published a year ago as 'People of the Sea', on which he worked for many years, as he was very critical of his own writing. We worked together to complete it and to get it published.

People would refer to James as the great James Wharram, the living Legend, but he didn't see himself as such. He was aware it was his large following of builders and sailors, their beautiful boats and great voyages that created the famous Wharram World. He saw them as the real heroes.

Sadly in the last few years James' brain, which he always talked about as a separate entity, started to fail him due to Alzheimer's. He was very distressed by losing his mental abilities, and struggled with his diminished existence. He could not face the prospect of further disintegration and made the very hard call to end it himself. It was with great courage that he lived his life and with great courage he decided it was the time to finish.

In this moment of great loss we should all remember the good and glorious times of a life fulfilled. This is not the end, I, we, all the Wharram World will keep his work alive.

Hanneke

Dear Wharram Friends,

Attendees of James Wharram's special Hui gathering are requested to fill out

this simple registration form

https://www.wharram.com/james-hui-ceremony-registration. It would be very

helpful to us to get a more accurate idea of numbers so we can organize

things properly. Thank you.

The Plan

Over the weekend of July 22nd - 25th we will hold a special Hui in

celebration of James' life. The plan is to have a fleet of Wharram catamarans

and other boats join us to scatter the ashes of James and Ruth on the

outgoing tide from Falmouth, from where they started their first pioneering

double canoe voyage in 1955. This was their wish and gives us a chance to say

a final farewell. We hope many of you will be able to join us then, with or

without your boat. There will also be a big celebration and BBQ at our

headquarters in Devoran.

This weekend has neap tides as this will give us high water in Falmouth

around mid-day. The plan is to moor our 23'6" Mana at Customs House Quay the

day before the event, the same place where James, Ruth and Jutta were moored

on Tangaroa in 1955. We will depart Falmouth in a Parade of Sail at high

water to scatter the ashes on the outgoing tide. We will decide on the day

for this based on the weather forecast as we need a nice day, but would like

to do this on Saturday 23rd. In the evening of the same day we will have a

celebration and a bring and share BBQ at JWD headquarters. Participants will

be able to camp on site in small tents as at previous HUIs.

As we have neap tides the Wharram boats will not be able to gather at Devoran

Quay, as there will not be sufficient water. Therefore we have arranged

permission to moor at Point Quay in Restronguet creek. This Quay is a little

further down river than Devoran Quay and therefore has more water at neap

tides, but it dries at low water, so not suitable for keel boats. It is a

half hour walk to JWD headquarters from this Quay or about 10 minutes by

bicycle.

On 15-17th July is the traditional boat festival in Douarnenez in Brittany

(Tempes Fetes). Boats that attend this festival will have time to sail to

Cornwall for the Hui. We would welcome a French delegation of Wharram cats.

スケジュール

7月22日～25日の週末に、Jamesの人生を祝う特別な集まりを開催する予定です。

ウォーラムのカタマラン（双胴船）や他の船も参加する予定です。

船団を作り、ファルマスから引き潮にのせて、ジェームスとルースの遺灰を撒く予定です。

1955年に二人乗りのカヌーの航海を始めた場所です。これは彼らの願いであり、私たちに最後の別れを告げる機会を与えてくれるものです。

このとき、多くの方が、ボートの有無にかかわらず、参加してくださることを願っています。

また、デボランの本社では、盛大な祝賀会とバーベキューが行われる予定です。

今週末は小潮のため、ファルマスの水位が高くなります。

このため、ファルマスでは昼過ぎに満潮になります。予定では、イベント前日に23'6 "のManaをCustoms House Quayに停泊させる予定です。

1955年にタンガロアでJames、Ruth、Juttaが係留されたのと同じ場所です。

私たちは、満潮時にパレード・オブ・セイルでファルマスを出発します。

満潮時にパレード・オブ・セイルでファルマスを出発し、引き潮の時に散骨を行います。当日は天気予報を見ながら決めますが、23日（土）に行いたいと思います。

その日の夕方には、祝賀会と持ち寄りバーベキューを予定しています。

JWD本部にて、持ち寄りバーベキューでお祝いします。参加者は これまでの集まりと同様、小さなテントでキャンプをすることができます。

小潮のため、WharramのボートはDevoranの岸壁に集合できません。

その為、十分な水が確保できませんが我々が手配しています

Restronguetクリークのポイント岸壁に係留する許可を得ました。この岸壁は、Devoran岸壁よりも少し川を下ったところにあります。

大潮のときはもっと水量がありますが、干潮時には乾いてしまうので、キールボートには適していません。この岸壁はこの岸壁からJWD本部までは徒歩30分、自転車なら10分程度です。

7月15日から17日にかけて、ブルターニュのドゥアルネーズで伝統的な船祭りが行われます。(Tempes Fetes)が開催されます。このお祭りに参加する船は、集まりのためにコーンウォールに航海する時間があります。我々は、WharramCatのフランスの代表団を歓迎します。
