With deepest regret we announce the passing on of Club and SA Sailing Eastern Cape Secretary Rodney Idris.

Rodney has represented sailing in the Eastern Cape on various committees for as long as I have known him. His support of sailing from local regattas and to national and international events was impeccable, always going the extra mile to ensure the running of events went smoothly and efficiently.

In the sailing community as a whole, Rodney was one of the most respected and admired individuals I have known. People’s memories of Rodney and messages of support have poured in from all over the country. His knowledge, experience and dedication will be sorely missed.

We send Ruth and the family our sympathy and condolences. The thoughts and prayers of the sailing community are with you.

Kind Regards,

The Gqeberha Yacht Club
