Obituary: David Cook (NZL)

It is with great sadness that ISAF reports that David Cook (NZL) has passed away.

David was the recipient of an ISAF Silver Medal in 2004 for his services that spread across many years within the world governing body of sailing.

He served as a Centreboard Boat Committee Member from 1991 to 1997 and subsequently became Chairman of the Committee in 1998. He held the position through to 2004 and also represented the Centreboard Boat Committee on the ISAF Sailing Committee.

David served as Yachting New Zealand President from 1995-96 and was awarded Yachting New Zealand Life membership for his services to the organisation.

ISAF expresses its sincere condolences to David’s family and friends in the sailing world.
