It's good to see people recognized for great work. In this case for something seemingly obscure in general society.

Sure beats hearing about the shenanigans of those miscreants in Hollywood.

Well deserved!

I love my Laser. Well deserved

... And the Sonar. And the wonderful but under appreciated Kirby 28.

If you ever see a 28 for sale, buy it no questions asked. You can thank me later.

Bruce grew up sailing at my club and is still a member. The club threw a party for him to celebrate his recognition, Laser sailors rigged their boats to honor him. This isn't my picture but here is Bruce displaying his Order of Canada ribbon.
