BILL SHAY'S ASHES ARE COMMITTED TO THE SEA

Shortly after the Gulf Stream during the Bermuda Race, Bill Schneider committed Bill Shay's ashes to the sea, while Larry Huntington read John Masefield's "Sea Fever". Bill was a long time friend and shipmate to many of us. Larry first met Bill at the finish of the 1957 Transatlantic race to Spain. A sober moment in the counterpoint of sun and sea.
