I have been trying to grasp the cruel truth, and find no words that have not already been said.
My sincere condoleances to those he left, and Aaron - I really miss you and I shall act in Piero's spirit.
Thank you and peaceful voyage.
My condolences and sympathy to Aaron's family. R.I.P Aaron and must you get fair winds on your way...
In memory for AGage & his family
Sorry Jen, for you & your daughters loss. I never knew him as a person, but i am confident that if he was as good father as he was as a sailor he was the best :-)
When he was sailing SOL i allways kept a´n eye for the course AGage was taking, AGage was the first name that i learned in SOL, he was the spirit for me & for lots of other sailors.
I´m very sad for you & our loss.
He is an outstanding sailor & i will allways have him in my mind.
Take care of you Jen

Please read the addition to the first post in this thread.

We have a message from Aaron's family.

I haven't been able to post on this thread until now as I felt so upset. It's wonderful the family understand what Aaron meant to us.

The good that we do lives on.

Still can't find words...

Fair winds and following seas on eternal ocean, Aaron, rest in peace...

RIP Aaron. We will always miss you.
Thank you for so much for all that you have done for us. How wonderful it is that we can get to know someone and chat and work on projects with out having to meet in person.

The world is a smaller place and now sadder and we will all miss you.

Smooth seas and fair winds.

If it breaks, it's not strong enough!
and.... how Aaron would probably prefer we remember him (courtesy of his mom):



Original version attached below.

I like how it looks as if he is saluting us all :-)

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Cocos to Sagar Island


Kapil Muni, incarnation of Lord Vishnu, founder of the Samkhya school of philosophy, disturbed from his meditation, in his wrath reduced the 60,000 sons of Sagar to ashes, as they dug the earth to retrieve the sacrificial horse that Lord Indra, the king of the Gods, stole off Sagar, thus creating the Sagara (ocean). Aeons later, Bhagiratha, a descendant of Sagara, asked Ganga to cleanse the ashes of the 60,000 princes, and her resultant torrential fall from heaven created the great river and where it met the ocean, the princes’ souls were washed and raised to heaven and Gangasagar (Sagar Island) was formed. So, let us join the pilgrimages to Kapi Muni’s Temple (see above) and race 2400nm from Cocos Island deep in the Sagara thence, in rather rapid Rapido 60s.

The Vineyard Race 2026


For the 16th consecutive year, our SOLers are invited to tackle this iconic 250nm overnighter. The classic route charges out through the sound, leaves Buzzards Bay Light to starboard, rounds Block Island to starboard, and heads home.

This year's weapon of choice is the Beneteau First 47.7. A proven performer since its 2012 SOL debut, this Farr-designed cruiser/racer excels at leading real and virtual handicap fleets. Success will demand sharp tactical navigation, so watch the polars closely to conquer the sound's shifting winds!
