Brown and Yale win NEISA, Cornell and St. Mary’s win MAISA, Stanford wins the West and Charleston wins the South Atlantic to conclude the fall season
Unfortunately, we must start by paying tribute to a legend and a multi-decade servant to College Sailing, Dan Winters, who passed over the weekend. In an email forwarded by ICSA President, Mitch Bridley, Maxwell Plarr, Head Coach at Christopher Newport University and successor to Winters had the following to say about his colleague and mentor; “Dan H. Winters fulfilled many roles in his life. He was a husband, a father, a coach, a friend, a sailmaker, an animal lover, and when he was passionate about something, a well respected adversary. Of all the titles and roles that Dan held during his eighty years on this earth we will remember him because of the great knowledge he bestowed upon us and his selfless dedication to the causes he upheld. A man of moral and principle he taught thousands of people life lessons while becoming better sailors in the process.”
The ringing of eight bells signifies the end of one's watch at sea and traditionally marks the passing of a sailor.
