Charlie Painter
Charlie had a life long love of sailing and the sea, learning to sail in the local gravel pit sailing club.
Charlie started his career in the Merchant Navy, working for BP and travelling the world.
After Charlie had left the merchant navy he continued to have a keen interest in dinghy sailing, and kayaking.
Charlie was a life long supporter of the RNLI, and had a huge respect for the work they do. He would have been very impressed by the new lifeboat, and proud to be a part of it.
