HORUS II was built by Dickies of Bangor to the Trearddur Sailing Club 
One Design created in 1935.
The club, on Anglesey, founded in August 1919 has an established 
reputation for dinghy racing. In 1935 the club approached nearby boat 
builders Dickies of Bangor to design a clinker-built sailing dinghy to 
suit the coastal waters of the Straits. The original HORUS, built in 
1927 was wrecked during the war and relaced in 1946 by HORUS II for R 
M O Stanley. In 1947 the boat went on to win the TBSC Novice Cup, 
which she won again in 1948, 1949, 1958, 1986, 1992 together with the 
Challenge Cup in 1948 and Ladies Cup in 1995.
After ownership by C W Bunn in 1953, D T H and Miss M Lake in 1958 
HORUS was bought by D C Clarke and P J Hanson in 1961 and remained in 
their ownership for some 60 years. The current owner bought the boat 
some 6 years ago. In 1998 John Jones of Porth Diana Boat Yard 
refurbished HORUS II with continued upgrading in recent years.
