Three years ago this spring, our small-boat world lost Robb White in his prime, a sad event for all who knew him in person or through his writing. While his loss was most grievous for his family and closest friends, Robb, building boats and writing from his home in Georgia, had established a wide-ranging connection with many who read and enjoyed his work. Over the course of nine years, Robb's writing appeared in every issue of Messing About in Boats-209 essays in all. His pieces were also published in this magazine, in Maine Boats, Homes, &? Harbors, in Smithsonian magazine, and in a book, How to Build a Tin Canoe (Hyperion, 2004).
