We are saddened to announce that our friend and seamstress, Shirrell Gibbs, has passed away this week. She was known by customers as a skilled craftswoman who always took care to ensure everyone received exactly what they needed. More importantly, she also ensured everyone felt welcomed and cared for as a member of the sailing community. After 33 years, her work has touched many and she will be remembered by even more.
