Sorry to hear this news Andrei. I never met Gordon, but if he had the good sense to sail an M17, I'm sure he was a fine man... t On Tue, Apr 17, 2012 at 8:25 PM, Andrei Caldararu <andreic@math.wisc.edu> wrote:
Dear fellow M-sailors,
I am sorry to write to you that our fellow M-boat sailor Gordon Gilbert passed away on April 15 after a fight with cancer. He was 58. I did not know him very well, but we sailed together a few times, and it was always great. I particularly remember our last trip together to Door County, WI, in September 2010. We sailed together during one day down from Sister Bay to Egg Harbor, he in his beautiful M-17, Sapphire, and me and my kids in mine. I am sure many of you have good memories of him.
I attach a photo from this trip.
Best regards, Andrei. 1982 M-17 Seaweed
