Sincere condolences to his family, and a huge "Thank You!" to Gerry from all of us, I'm sure.
Requiescat in pace.

Hello Compac 16 Sailors,
I have attached a proposal for changing the rig of Compac 16/1 to a boomless gaff mainsail, while keeping the jib.  I hope you will post comments on the advantages and  disadvantages of the rig, and ways that it  could  be improved. Maybe one of you will try it out!
Fair Winds,
