Very few people in <strong>the</strong> world<br />

could claim <strong>to</strong> have a<br />

determination and a solid track<br />

record like yours, which goes<br />

back two decades and a half, <strong>to</strong><br />

make sailing accessible <strong>to</strong> New<br />

Yorkers. When I arrived in this<br />

city some five years ago, <strong>the</strong><br />

North Cove with its facilities<br />

that allowed for sailing<br />

comradery was an immediate<br />

attraction for me. Ever since, I<br />

have learnt a lot from your<br />

example and benefitted from<br />

<strong>the</strong> sailing community that you<br />

created beyond my wildest<br />

imaginations.<br />

city and book hotel rooms, eat in restaurants, shop and visit attractions.<br />
