George McKerrow had collaborated with Taylor and Farren in The CQR Anchor company, in which he was mainly responsible for manufacture and marketing. He was also a keen sailor, and on retirement from Metropolitan-Vickers he settled at Glencaird and maintained a regular correspondence with Taylor whom he addressed as Skipper. His own letters are signed Jock. It is clear that Taylor kept up the correspondence on his side, but none of his letters are preserved.
The 1933 letter discusses the manufacture and testing of the CQR Anchor, and there are references to this and related matters passim in the later correspondence.
