Jan Gougeon, one of the founders of West Systems and one of the nice people in the world, has passed.

If you have ever used epoxy to repair you boat, you need to stop, have a drink in his honor, and wish him well.

I remember when epoxy came in paint buckets with no instructions or no instructions you could actually follow.

The celebration will be Dec 27 in Bay City, Wi

God bless Jan. He was at Woodruffs Invitational last spring. Oh, and Bay City is in MI

I'll bet Jan and Stan are racing iceboats up there somewhere. Has hell frozen over?

Good one, Jack. They were big on DNs and both won major championships here and abroad.
