In the 1997 Worrell 1000 a Dart Hawk was sailed by Gerard Loos and Pied Heemskerks. They finished in 3rd place.
In the 1998 Worrell 1000 a Hobie Tiger was sailed by Gerard Loos and Martin Peacey. They were in 11th place at Kill Devil Hills but they dismasted trying to get out through the surf for the final leg to Virginia Beach. Actually, only eight of the last 12 boats managed to get out through the huge surf that day. The other three boats that succumbed to the surf were Nacra 6.0's.
Has anyone seen anything of Martin Peacey recently. Did a little sailing with him a while ago and have lost touch. Just ask him about his UK leaving party at Grafham Water.....
(I was not there, but I've seen some of the piccies..
