I am shocked to hear this news. Tom was one of the best sailors on the bay and a great person to know on and off the water. Always a gentlemen and very willing to sit down and explain to me just how badly I fouled him on many occasions. I feel fortunate to have sailed against him and known him. He will truly be missed.
