I was shocked to read of Claiborne's death in a motorcycle accident. I've been a fan of his web site and books about cruising the ICW and coastal areas of the southeast and mid-Atlantic. He did much to create and sustain a community of cruising sailors in our part of the country. Link to story below.

Very sad! A great loss to the cruising community. Motorcycles! I love em' and hate em'!
How very sad. Claiborne spoke at our sailing club many times over the years. He had a real passion for boating and always was concerned about all of us. He will be missed
