Sad news this weekend on the passing of one of the founders of Phuket Raceweek Mr Andy Dowden. A personal friend and a loss to the Sailing and Yachting industry. Many of you may not know that Andy supported us over the last 10 years we operated PRW as Jury Chairperson and was always there offering help and assistance.

RIP Andy and condolences to his family and friends.

One of the founders and a co-author of Southeast Asia Pilot, Andy Dowden, passed away in the early hours of Saturday, July 22.
Andy, a British yachtsman who left the UK in 1981 aboard his own 46-ft sloop to cruise the world, was one of the pioneers of yachting in Thailand. He arrived in Thailand for the first time in 1984 and set up Phuket's first yacht services and boat building company in 1989.
He was a past president of the Phuket King's Cup Regatta, co-founder of both Thailand's first boatshow (PIMEX) and Phuket Raceweek regatta – a sailors’ favourite largely due to the imprint of Andy’s personality on its organisation. Such was his love of Phuket’s sailing scene that no local regatta committee boat went out without Andy on board – unless he was racing himself.
But Andy’s real legacy, and the main reason he’s almost universally described as ‘a legend’, is that he was a kind, compassionate, forgiving and easy-going man; he never had a bad word to say about anyone and, to top it off, he was a consummate, if quietly spoken, raconteur – everybody’s friend and the perfect companion for setting the world to rights over a few sundowners. I can just see him now, entertaining the celestial host with that mischievous ‘Dowden grin’ firmly planted on his face.
Fair winds and following seas, Andy.
