3) Andy Duff – New Zealand
It is with sadness that we announce the loss of Andy Duff of New
Zealand. Many of you will remember him from the 1997 – 1999 Camel
Challenges. His untimely death due to a road accident while
rafting in
the USA has been a shock to many and he is a big loss to our
rafting
fraternity. His ashes will be scattered into the Kaituna River in
Rotorua/NZ in a ceremony there in the next few days.
