Former Mieco Beach Yacht Club Commodore Pete Allen died of a heart attack on January 31 in Brunei, a day after sailing into the small nation on the island of Borneo.
The long-time cruiser spent many years in the Marshall Islands on his small catamaran French Kiss. While here, he visited many of the outer islands where he regularly used his skills to try and revive broken equipment.
His daughter Nicole posted on Facebook: “My father was an amazing and adventurous person. He really lived his life and died doing what he loved.”
