NATIONAL SAILING HALL OF FAME

Ok, the National Sailing Hall of Fame in Annapolis Maryland, will evidently induct 10 deserving sailors this year. It is still a new organization, but I am surprised that the Nye family of “Carina” have not made it into the final rounds. In the end election to any organization is a popularity contest I suppose. Read the rules for election: HERE

I should add that there is a book now available on the “Carina” story: “Home is the Sailor”

 

NATIONAL SAILING HALL OF FAME

The National Sailing Hall of Fame has taken a while to get launched. Let’s hope it takes a healthy direction. We can all think a a number of worthy potential inductees. For Ocean Racing, I will be proposing Dick Nye Sr. of “Carina” fame.  His accomplishments even without the context of time stand out.
