Synopsis
They first called Tom Clark 'Captain Araldite' during a yacht race in the Atlantic, when he stood at the wheel of his yacht, 'Buccaneer', for 36 hours to get through a storm. Once he takes on a project, he sticks to it, as he did with the New Zealand firm Ceramco Ltd. It was just a brick and pipe factory until Tom Clark shaped it into an innovative corporation. This is the story of Tom Clark, business genius and yachtsman.
