THE HISTORY OF THE CLUB.

Having bought the Cleopatra which I renamed "Dream Catcher" I wandered how many more of these boats built in the 1960-70s in Essex were still around so I decided to setup this web site for owners of Cleopatra boats. Immediately, much to my surprise, it attracted owners from all over the world, who like me were looking for advice and spare parts. It is now in its 8th year and still growing.

 


THE FIREST MEETING.

Saturday the 26th June 2004 marked a historic day in the life of MyCleopatra.co.uk. Back in June 2003 when I started the site I never imagined that just one year on we would be having our first My Cleopatra club meeting but thanks to Terry this is in fact what was happening.
The meeting included a visit to the original home of Cleopatra's, Essex Marina at Wallasea on the River Crouch.
