2-15-25: Gerry Hutchins, founder of Com-Pac, has crossed the bar and headed west.

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

Just got my new issue of GOB(Good Old Boat) in the mail.  Lo and behold, there's a picture of Bob23 on page 24. See below.  This picture of Bob was taken on Saranac Lake in NY in 1937.  I'm amazed at how well Bob has aged.

That is a cooler full of PBR! That's how I've aged so well!! I thought this photo was long lost, now I have to explain just who that woman was I was sailing with!
