The principal aim of the Old Gaffers Association is to promote, and further the sailing rig known as "Gaff-rig". This means a four-sided mainsail with a spar supporting the topside of the sail known as the "Gaff". We also are very keen to maintain the traditions of sailing, such as good seamanship, traditional boat building, thus keeping the "old-ways" of doing things very much alive and well.

And now, what do you want?
Please, please, send me in the content you want on the site. A story, a poem, a funny tale, anything that takes your fancy! Just send it to dege.gallagher@googlemail.com and it will appear, by magic, on here. (if it's rated 18, see me behind the bikeshed...)

Seriously though, I need your help to keep the site new and interesting.
