Southwinds Magazine, The Bahamas Lose a Sailing Legend

Click on the picture to read more!! The Bahamas lose a sailing legend. The Passing of Eleazor Johnson.

Affectionately called “Barber J” or “The Sailing Barber,” Johnson leaves dual legacies

…. He kept the community looking good, and brilliantly promoted Bahamian racing sloop regattas, making a lasting mark

Eleazor Johnson will be very much missed. His passing at age 80 in Nassau on January 16th leaves the many people that he mentored reflecting on his contributions. “The Sailing Barber” had a love for people, knew everybody, and was a big talker. He is no longer cutting hair at his barber shops, no longer promoting and organizing sailing, but his memory lives on.
