The DRS is a fast, efficient way to resolve UK domain name disputes.

Misinformation from X (Twitter)

October 2022

In X it was said: The main workshop is being tidied up and made ready for our new projects arriving soon. First will be our donated vessel Taylor Maid. Next the historic sailing coble Golden Gleam, pictured at 2005 Tall Ships Newcastle.

A broken promise perhaps, it appears that the Golden Gleam is still on the quayside in St Peter’s Marina because the Chair of NEMT, Mr A Renwick, refuses to allow any NFHT vessels, access to the slipway off Wapping St in South Shields.

Personal Defamatory Attacks

In a complaint to Nominet about the domain name nemaritimetrust.co.uk by the Chair of NEMT he mentions personal defamatory attacks which include malicious and incorrect information which have been made against him and some possibly were but they were not made by the owner of the domain nemaritimetrust.co.uk. In fact the available evidence shows that flow of malicious and incorrect information was in the other direction and particularly against Mr Dawson:-

15-Mar-24, AR to PW: I also notice that Mick Dawson (NFHT) has conspired to scam our website with similar unauthorised data, blocking any input from NEMT.
An attempt to remove his access from our website about two years ago has obviously been circumvented, these actions must be removed immediately.

15-Mar-24, KB to PW: Are you implying that a member of NEMT is responsible for this disgraceful personalised and aggressive attack.
I believe the person in question is in fact a member of NFHT board and has not been a member of NEMT for several years. – Mr Barnard (KB) was referring to Mr Dawson.

17-Mar-24, KB to MD: I note that you are not a member of NEMT but are a director of nfht whom, I assume you speak for. I am an elected member of NEMT and was elected by the membership because they wished me to take that position. It’s called democracy.
The reason you have not seen the minutes is because you are not a member, just thought I would clear that question up for you.

One can only assume that Mr Barnard was told I was not a member of NEMT by Mr Renwick but he does not apologise until the 26th:-

Misinformation: 18-June-2024

much of it is fraudulent misrepresentation – with a commentary by the website administrator.

From: Alec Renwick alec.renwick@nemaritimetrust.org.uk

Dear All

As you will be aware the previously transferred to NEMT, owned and paid for nemaritimetrust.co.uk Website has been stolen by Mick Dawson who appears to have taken advantage of its unlocked status. 1 damage both NFHT and NEMT organisations.
I have tried to speak to Mick recently, only to be told “I should know why” 2
Well, I don’t!

1 – a complex lie, the site was secure and therefore not unlocked and belonged to Mr Dawson not to Mr Renwick nor any other NEMT Trustee;

2 – when he asked to speak with me, he was simply told to write and when he asked ‘why’ he was ignored and we now have a written record of what he wanted a word about.

DRS 26876: Part 1

29 July 2024

Dear Sir or Madam

Thank you for the copy of the dispute raised by Mr A Renwick of Fisherman’s Workshop, Wapping St, South Shields and the covering letter giving instructions on how to deal with his request/demand that you transfer the domain nemaritimetrust.co.uk to a different service provider from the one where it is currently administered. Please treat this letter as my response.
The domain had been registered with Nominet under my name for over ten years and as the registration was about to expire, 22nd May, I had to act quickly to counter Mr Renwick’s false claim that the domain had been transferred to him when I gave him access to the website of the same name in October 2020.
I soon discovered that he had deleted most of the history North East Maritime Trust from the time that NEMT gained its charitable status in February 2007 until late 2019 and revoked his permission to prevent him from making any further amendments to a site that had, until October 2020, reflected the history, not only of NEMT but that of the Northumbrian Fishing Heritage Trust as well.

What rights is Mr A Renwick asserting?

Our Rights to This Domain have been removed by Mr Michael Dawson as follows;
The domain name nemaritimetrust.co.uk has now been claimed and used by Mr Michael Dawson- (daw50nmdj@hotmail.co.uk) and has a high risk of being used in a way that is likely to endanger deversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) in our part of the domain name system.

The domain name nemaritimetrust.co.uk was registered in May 2014 by the said Michael Dawson and he gave permission to Mr Renwick to access it in 2020. His editing rights were removed when it was discovered that he had abused his position by removing some of the history of the NFHT. In 2024 Mr Renwick regained access right by giving false information to the then provider, TSOHost and once he gained access used the privilege to remove Mr Dawson from the position as the main administrator which he had held for nearly 10 years and having done that, nemaritimetrust.co.uk was used to disseminate false information about the Trustees of the NFHT.

HFS Visit to Blyth, 6th July

Very nice comment by the skipper of the yacht Aurelia:

Saturday July 5 my wife and I enjoyed a short trip on the Henry Frederick James on the river Blyth, invited by its crew.
They told us about the history of this lifeboat , detailed what the present engine is like and demonstrated the horn. We are impressed by the effort it must have taken to restore this boat. Impressive too is how this boat must have been operated when it went out to rescue people.
Thank you for a wonderful afternoon!

Gaps in the Archive

Control of the website nemaritimetrust.co.uk was regained by its rightful owner when Nominet was asked to switch the provider from TSOHost to IONOS but the switch left big gaps in the archive:-

  • 2005 – June 2008;
  • 2011 – 2018
  • 2020 – 2024

2005 – June 2008

The North East Maritime Trust had, by June 2008, restored the fishing boats, Rachel Douglas and Favourite and sailed them up the Coast to attend a festival in Seahouses.

NEMT Chair v NEMT Website Owner

How wrong could one be about Mr Renwick. Very early on June the 18th in an email to the Trustees of the NFHT and some members of NEMT,* including Mr Dawson, he reverted to his habit of calling Mr Dawson a thief:-

As you will be aware the previously transferred to NEMT, owned and paid for nemaritimetrust.co.uk Website has been stolen by Mick Dawson who appears to have taken advantage of its unlocked status.damage both NFHT and NEMT organisations. I have tried to speak to Mick recently, only to be told “I should know why”
Well, I don’t!

He had been told by Mr Dawson, when he interrupted a conversation about the damaged slipway with one of the NEMT members to say that he wanted a word, to put what he wanted to say in writing. The reason he was asked to do that was in order to elevate any slander to libel but what is most disturbing is that the Chairman of NEMT concludes his email with a threat:-
