It is with a heavy heart that I am reporting the passing of Jim Wilson from District 9. Jim was one of the all time greats in this hobby who was there to help anyone who asked. Over the past five years I have come to know and respect his intellect, experience and passion for the hobby and just his beautiful nature. Jim was a member of the NAMBA Hall of fame since 2005. Jim we will miss you very much, rest my friend!
Jim Wilson was a long time District Nine boater and member of the Model Mariners. He has served numerous stints as club Commodore and Contest Director. Jim has served as the District Nine Rule and Technical Chairman, and is looked to for his knowledge and understanding of our hobby. He has won numerous National Championships. He has also won over 40 district championships. He is always helpful to other boaters, doing what he can to make sure that they get on the water.
