Given to the member who has, in the opinion of the Board of Governors, made the most significant contribution to the sport of sailing.

He logs more time on the water in race committee than just about anybody, supporting Wednesday night PHRF and Thursday night One Design fleet racing as well as the ECSA races.  (PS -  He taught Judy Gill how to back Sitting Duck into a slip.)

This long time member and racer just never stops giving back to the club.  From crane work to race committee fleet engine repairs this member is always willing to help.

She never stops smiling and has worked tirelessly to assist the race committee and most recently learned to back Sitting Duck in a slip like a pro using only the throttle.
