Charles Nicholson (1868-1954) was a yacht designer and a member of the famous Camper & Nicholson family. He initiated a new 5.5 class in 1949 and presented the Prototype 5.5 K-1 The Deb (debutante). By 1950 the IYRU had acknowledged the International status of the Class and 5.5 Metres participated in the Olympic Sailing regattas from 1952 until 1968. Another prominent sailing family involved with the 5.5 Metre Class were the Aishers. Owen was president and Robin secretary for numerous years. Both families united when Charles Nicholson’s son, George competed, with Robin at the helm, in the 1960 Olympics. Robin subsequently won the Bronze Medal in 1968.
