Ted Irwin, designer of Queequeg, is in the hospital after being run over by a power boat! Here's an email I received from Gene Gammon, Ted's old partner:
"I was just informed that Ted Irwin is in ICU at Bayfront Medical Center in St. Petersburg.
I can find no details in any Florida news but a friend, Tom Casey of Blue Water Sailing mag., was informed by Charlie Morgan this morning and was confirmed.
Apparently he was run over by a powerboat in Kew West at night while going ashore in his dinghy. He was airlifted to Bayfront from the Keys.
Please pray for Ted and hope for the a good and speedy recovery.
Will update all as I learn more.
Regards,
Gene Gammon
