One of the more influential multihull designers is gone. Dick Newick passed away the 29th August at the age of 87. Here is a post in sailing scuttlebutt:

A link to an article about him a couple of years ago, the article even mentions he admired the light fast sailboats of Uffa Fox when he was kayaking around Europe:

  Good to hear news of A146 and it would be great if you could visit the UK and make contact. Colin A95

  Still good to hear your interest in Atalanta’s has not diminished. Sadly I must now sell Hiran. Colin
