I am saddened to learn of Karl's passing. He was a great guy. Always laughing and joking with me when he came into the boat yard. I will truly miss Karl.

Saddened to learn of Karl's passing. My heart goes out to his family. He wrenched on my boat for years and I'm proud to have called him my friend. Thanks for the ice cold "Thanksgiving leftovers" we shared in my driveway a few weeks ago Karl....enjoy your ENDLESS SUMMER bro.

Sorry to hear of Karl's sudden premature passing--my wife Kathy and I socialized for many years with his mother and father.Over this period, I personally got to know Karl junior. We had many conversations, and always impressed me as a person who pulled no punches with no hidden agenda.As they say" what you saw you got". He will have a lasting impact on my memory.

I am so sorry to hear of Karl's passing, I would have been there in pseron but just found out. I have many fond memories hanging out with Karl and spending time at the house with the family. Karl and I did a lot together and I am saddened. I take comfort in knowing that he is sailing in calm and comfortable seas.
