My condolences to the family.
Seems like the reports of this nature are getting more frequent. Something to be expected I suppose from a sport that is dominated by baby boomers. |

Winston was a great guy. During the summesr he liked to ride his bike to play tennis every morning in Kihei, and then often windsurfed at Lower Kanaha in the afternoon. I believe that he spent his winters in the mountains as a skier. He just got a new knee in the past year which was working out great for him.
Always smiling and laughing; he will be missed. |

We played tennis many times next to Winston, occasionally with him. Agree; always smiling, happy, loved the outdoors and an active lifestyle. Somewhat shocking to hear of this bad news. We will miss him. |

Any photos? I know a lot of the Kanaha sailors by nickname and face.
Thanks, Bull |
