Not sure what to say?

Peter was a valued member of the Race Committee for Antigua Sailing Week for many years. Every year a group of us would meet up at Curtain Bluff Hotel - Arthur and Stork Wullschleger, Bobby Symonette from Nassau, myself (Justin Bell from London) and others and sailed and partied. It was such a great time. Peter was always the centre of attention organising everyone while Nancy, Stork and I sat on the beach.

I sailed on Escapade during the first Block Island Race Week when I was a teen. Thank you Peter! RIP Peter Zendt 77

As a budding pram sailor at LYC in the early 50's Peter encouraged me to develop my racing skills culminating in more than 40 years of offshore yacht racing including the SORC, FLL to Key West , Miami/Jamaca and the FLL to Charleston which we won in Dean Wolsey's yacht Circe. I always looked up to Peter for advice as neighbors on Laguna Dr. and will sadly miss him as an almost Fatherly figure. Fred Stresau [email protected]
