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.
