Last Call for Heroes

We’ve received lots of well-deserved nominations for local ‘unsung heroes’ since we recently put out a call (here and in Latitude 38 magazine) for nominations. If you’re unclear on the concept, let us clarify that we’re interested in spotlighting sailors who quietly make a difference in our sport with little or no recognition — folks who, out of the goodness of their hearts, volunteer their time and expertise to introduce novices to our sport, mentor young people, nurture disabled sailors, endure long hours bobbing around on committee boats, or teach the time-honored skills of marlinspike seamanship.

If you know of an ‘unsung hero’ you’d like to nominate to our honor roll, shoot us an email and tell us why you think they qualify for this special recognition, and if possible please also send a few photos of your nominee in action. Many thanks.
