Our sympathies Erica- Brian was such a lot of fun and we have lots of wonderful memories of times with you guys. Thinking of you and family at this difficult time

To Erica and all the family our sincere condolences. A passionate sailor who had some amazing adventures. We hold some wonderful memories of our time on the water with Brian.

We are thinking of everyone, bloody sad. Many memories sailing on the Green Hormone up and down the coast.

Erica, So sorry to hear of the passing of BIM. He was a legend and we had many wonderful adventures together. I was talking to Geoff Downey last night and we just went on and on remembering story after story. Please pass on my deepest sympathy to the family. Look after yourself. Kind regards, Paul Whiting

I have immense respect for Brian, a real character. He did so much for short-handed sailing and was always a gracious host when he invited me to cover various events. I still remember interviewing him over the phone when he was in hospital in Australia following the loss of Green Hornet. A week later and he still hadn't warmed up. My sincere condolences to Erica and family, with love from Rebecca xx

I am overseas and was deeply saddened to hear of Brian´s passing and that I would miss his final voyage. I did my first offshore race with Brian on Green Hornet and remember the plan to sail back to NZ after the Melbourne to Osaka race an adventure that never happened! I will miss our catch ups over lunch. All the best my old friend and may you have fair winds to make your future voyages safe and comfortable.
