Tragedy at SSA

This is a tough one to write. I debated whether to post this at all. Severn Sailing Association's junior sailor, Olivia Constants drowned this past Thursday when her trapeze harness snagged some rigging after her 420 turtled. I don't know the family but there is a universal sadness, disbelief, even bewilderment, among our sailing community when someone so young dies doing the sport we love.

My heart goes out to her family and friends.
