Jim Drake

(You may notice a predominantly high percentage of US citizens in the top seven Hall of Fame nominations. This is primarily due to the fact that in the days of windsurfings infancy the US was at the forefront of windsurfing invention and subsequent development. Nowadays it is a truly worldwide sport and we are sure, in years to come we will see a more global representation of our windsurfing heroes.)
