So sorry to hear, an absolute great person , In the Miami days of Cougar we were very close, both Ann and Clive. I watched the kids grow, and Steve especially who is his Dad all over again genuine and sincere as they come. Clive and James were the inovators of offshore cats as we know them today. I had the good fortune to race against Clive and James in the Cowes Torquay Cowes race when they introduced the 35` cat, I won the race with Bill Elswick in Satisfaction, but it was between them and us, and they played with us in that cat, they broke and that allowed us the win. I`ll never forget that next evening sitting with Clive and James at dinner, and me telling them both that there was no way cats were ever going to dominate the sport of offshore, boy was I ever wrong. God Bless the Curtis family and heavy hearted condolences to all. Clive is joining a great team up above.
