As part of its centenary celebrations in 2009/2010 the Club commissioned a book to track its growth from a small mutual club insuring the last of the coastal sailing ships to today’s position as a global insurer. The book, researched and written by Dr Helen Doe of the Centre for Maritime Historical Studies at the University of Exeter, was published last year. It has recently been reviewed by Robert G. Greenhill in the International Journal of Maritime History. For further information about the book and to read the review visit the publications area of the Club's centenary website at: http://centenary.simsl.com/publications/centenary-book.htm  

The latest edition of A Team Effort will be released shortly. A trailer of this latest edition, together with details of the latest features, are now available on the website.
