It is with deep regret that we inform you on the untimely demise of a long standing member Pawlu Ripard.

Those of you who were fortunate to know him, knew how pleasant, and knowledgeable he was.   He had built his boat Barney with his late father Paul Ripard on which boat he was frequently sighted in many anchorages around the Island.

On behalf of the Club Committee, staff and members, we extend our condolences to his mother Dora, sisters Ruth and Giselle, his brother Christian and wife Jackie and all his family in what must be an extremely difficult moment.

He will be sorely missed by his many friends.

May he rest in peace.

Mark Napier

Hon. Secretary

Royal Malta Yacht Club
