Recently, Andy Larkin has exhibited erratic and at times distressing behavior
at the boathouse and in emails to club members.? His family and friends are
aware of the situation, are tracking it, and are urging him to seek
professional help.

Reluctantly, I am informing the club of these behaviors.? My own approach is not
to criticize Andy, not even to respond to him, because I sense that will simply
fuel and extend an unpleasant interaction.

So far, Andy's behaviors have not threatened the safety of any club member.
But his trajectory may be unpredictable.

Please allow Andy a measure of privacy about this matter.? Please do not use
the club email list for open discussion.? However, a broadcast to the entire
club may be appropriate if you sense an immediate danger.? If you wish to
suggest any action by the club, please send email to me and I will consult
with the Board.

Andy is a long and stalwart fixture of our club, and a major contributor.? It is
sad and upsetting to see recent incidents intrude on that legacy.? I'm sure you
join me in wishing him the best.

Bob Sproull, president


P.S. Beware that replying to this message will by default send it to the entire

Thanks Andy, ?but I’ll have to find a place - maybe an auto parts store -that has spray colors. This going to be difficult. It needs to be sprayed on and then wet sanded at 2000+ grit.?
? ?But if your eyes find a similar color SW code let me know the #. I’m color blind. Really . But I might find a place. In the meantime it’s smoooooth and folks can row it. There are places that will make up spray colors also .?
