Remembering our mate today, "Petey Pete', The Captain". 7 years have gone by, feels like only yesterday....

Always positive and a friend to all.

Still miss sailing and having a laugh with Pete...

Left us to soon

RIP Pete

Thinking of you Kazza

your friend Russ

Kazza, he was a machine, one story worth telling comes to mind when I think of Pete:
About seven years ago Ken and I got hooked on Cloudy Bay, had 6 out of 6 brilliant sessions that year mostly going when the forecast was W or SW, 30-40 knots, 5-9 m swell.
Pete came down with us once on the biggest forecast of the year, we drove down to the far end of the beach, Ken & I headed out of the corner into one & half mast high swell, with it breaking on the bombie in the middle of the bay. Pete followed us, having no idea what he was getting into and absolutely sh.t himself, but he stayed out and gave it a good session, gutzy effort and the most memorable sail we ever got.
You had to love him.

Always smiling and full of energy. A big loss. RIP Pete.

Stupid kites Yer Ant him and Mikey went on about it for ages, their epic sail at Cloudy Bay, I hear a lot of interesting things happened that trip....Ian Johnson rings a bell.
