FORMER Tasmanian Liberal senator Brian Archer has been remembered as a legendary committee worker and huge supporter of the fishing industry and his beloved northwest coast.
The federal coalition has expressed condolences to the family of the long-serving senator who passed away on Sunday.
He served the people of Tasmania and in particular "his beloved North West coast" for 18 years, they said in a statement on Monday.
"His Committee work was tireless and legendary," they say.
"His areas of interest included those regularly overlooked by others.
"His interest in and support for the fishing industry was second to none."
Mr Archer ran a highly successful real estate business and was a farmer prior to being swept into the senate in the Liberal landslide" after the disastrous Whitlam experiment", the statement said.
He served in John Howard's opposition as spokesman for science and shadow special minister of state.
Mr Archer retired in 1994.
He is survived by his wife Dorothy, children and grandchildren.
