My sincerest condolences. I had a couple of discussions with Mark via PMs and emails and I can only say that he was a lovely man and that the forum, and the world in general, is a worse place without him.

I found his approach to projects quite inspirational. I always thought the world needed more like him. I'm sure you will be inundated with offers to provide a vessel for the scattering, if not, call on me. It will be my pleasure. He's left this world a little the poorer for his passing.

[anoccasionalyachtsman]

Terrible news. There aren't many people on the internet that I really hope to meet one day, but Mark was one of them.

 

[Mrssolentclown]

Your comments are really helping us we have shared them with Mark's brothers as well as the kids.
I thank all of you. We have vowed to restore the yacht for him. I love him so much sailing with him was such fun.

I've only just found out, I was deeply impressed by Marks' sense of humour and obvious skills - yours too Karen. There are no words, all I can say is you have a lot of positive thoughts heading your way, a reflection of a very good impression made in a short time here.
