Dear Navlist Members. My name is William Archer. Irv Haworth worked for my father and was one of those "uncles" one has. I am very sorry to say that Irv passed away on Jan 12 at the tender young age of 80. Navigation and all things nautical were a passion of his. He passed many articles from your mailing list to me. You and your fellow list members kept him constantly happy during the last several years. Not all of you agreed with what he had to say and he certainly had opinions to share, but you were collectively very important to him. You can find his old website here: http://www.hawco-marine.com/ The bottom left of the site has a picture of him taken last October has he sold his beloved "La Brisita" to new owners. The reason I took the time out to write instead of merely un-subscribing is that what you say, and what you do, really matters to like minded people all over the world. Please keep it up. As Irv would have signed off, Hornblower 73
