Tribute to East Coast Sailor Bob Fisher

The sailing fraternity will have been saddened this week to hear of the passing of Bob Fisher – the renowned yachting journalist who firmly made his mark on the sailing world - who will be particularly remembered for his writings on the America’s Cup. Raised in Brightlingsea, on the East Coast, Bob remained a regular visitor to both the area and Brightlingsea Sailing Club, where his family still sail. He was a man of remarkable achievements, and you can read more about these here. Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this difficult time.
