It is with great sadness that I need to announce the passing of Gary Plant yesterday morning.
Gary has been an active member of the Sandhopper fleet sailing Sand Spirit with his wife Polly since joining TBYC in 2009 and has also served the club as House Rep.
Our deepest sympathies go out to Polly and all his close family and friends. He will be very much missed at TBYC, particularly in the Sandhopper fleet.
On behalf of
Adrian Bunting
Commodore
