It was a sad day in October when Farr crews and others gathered at the stern of Equaliser for a minutes silence to mourn the loss of a dear friend.
Alan was a fierce competitor on the water and the proud skipper of Equaliser for twenty five years. He raced successfully on the ocean as well as on the river and was always ready to offer helpful advice to those joining the fleet. He has left his mark on the Association and is remembered with affection by us all.
