Richard Woodget

Richard Woodget was the son of a farmer in from Burnham Norton, Norfolk who first went to sea in the coasters plying the waters of the east coast of Britain. In 1868 he received his master's certificate at South Shields.〔 In 1881 Jock Willis made him master of the old ship ''Coldstream'',〔 and in 1885 he was appointed to command the ''Cutty Sark''. A well-respected sailor and man manager, Captain Woodget made several record breaking passages between the United Kingdom and Australia.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.red-duster.co.uk/DOFS6.htm )〕
In 1895 the Cutty Sark was sold to Portuguese interests, and Captain Woodget transferred to command the ''Coldinghame''. However he made only one voyage in this ship before retiring from the sea. He bought a farm at Burnham Overy Staithe in his native Norfolk, where he lived until 1926. He died on 6 March 1928.〔〔Commemorative plaque on house in East Harbour Way, Burnham Overy Staithe.
