Janine Redlein passed on monday Nov 28 after a battle with breast cancer. Although she had not been active in Wet Pants in recent years, she will be remembered by members active in the 70′s and 80′s.  In 1977 She won the crew of the year award after  she responded to the command of “get that main in harder” at the committee boat end of line with a loud “F U!”
