Title: RIP: Roger Weiman
Post by: Brad @ SCJB on June 12, 2009, 01:33:02 AM
I just read over on PB that Roger Weiman of Rogers Custom Boats passed away on 6/10/09.
I never met the man, always wanted to, never had the opportunity. Heard nothing but great things about him.
He left a legacy of boats behind that will live on forever.

I saw Roger at the last parker races with Roger finney and the guy who brought the TR splash. He didnt look and move aroyund really well and the others had mentioned it. Truely a sad day. RIP Roger.
