PETER MORTON (GBR)
| Nomination |
Winning the Quarter
Ton Cup yet again was
pretty good, then
going on to win the
Half Ton Classics two weeks later was
even better. However, Morty was
really nominated for the amazing job
that he (and his wife) have done in
resurrecting Ton Cup sailing with 33
immaculate and well-prepared
Quarter Tonners on the line this year,
on the 10th anniversary of the first of
these spectacular revivalist regattas
