Gilbert "Gibby" Peterman

[Jeff Lytle]

Another Gentleman.......and anyone who had the pleasure of meeting this gentle man knew he was one of PRO racing's most respected men. Quiet, knowledgeable, and skillful on the beach---A fierce competitor on the water.

Not only was he a gentleman and great competitor, he was a great teacher. I remember after leading a race only to have Gibby get inside of me on the last turn when I was trying to push him a little wide and losing to him. His comment in the pits, "That will teach you!"
