I came across some sad news that Don Cohan passed away on October 20.
Don summered up in Spruce Head, and raced #744 Encore out of Rockland. He started sailing late in life at 37, but 5 years later won the Olympic bronze medal in the Dragon class. There is much more to Don’s legacy. Here is a link to the obituary for Don Cohan posted on the Soling class website: Don Cohan.
Here is an article Don wrote in Sailing World magazine a few years back in response to a Stuart Walker article: Don Cohan Winning and Losing | Sailing World. I can’t find Stuart’s article, but Don’s response is worth reading.
