Coble launches at HBBR

There is usually a new boat launching at HBBR events, and last weekend it was this lovely Selway-Fisher designed Northumbrian Coble.
The builder (seen at left) has a great talent for scrounging material including lots of lovely mahogany from an old bank building in the City, so it is a really superior boat.
It rows well too, as this picture of the happy couple shows.
OK, someone help me out here. I have forgotten the couple's names...someone pop them in the comments box, please.
