Return of DOVE, was: Re: [Cal_Boats] Atomic 4

Jerry, RETURN of DOVE was a 33' Allied, not a "New York 35". For an interesting read, check out "Home is the Sailor" the book that Robin Lee Graham wrote after he returned from his voyage, it tells the background of the movie and the adventures that Patti and Robin experienced as they tried to re-enter "normal" life after being World travellers they ended up moving to Montana and living "off-the-grid" with their kids. I still have my copy of the movie "The Dove", (no, not interested in selling!) and enjoy watching it periodically, I actually saw it originally in the theater during it's initial release. My Dad and I had a great Father-Son night out, big thrill for an 11 year-old! (I think that was my age at the time, I've forgotten when the movie was in theaters?) I suspect the RANGER 23 was used due to the producers not being able to find an old LAPWORTH 24, more so than any marketing decision by Bangor-Punta, plus a lot of movie goers would never recognize the substitution. (of course I did!). Still a GREAT film! Directed by Gregory Peck, if I recall?

Ah stands corrected, judge. There are two or three Lapworth 24's I've come across in King Harbor and Santa Barbara. I raced against one in the Marina del Rey to Seal Beach Regatta a few years back. It has the same hull as the Gladiator, which can easily beat me going upwind. So I kinda think they could have got their hands on one if they'd tried. The fellow who sailed along side me said he was a ten year old when Robin left. And I guess Robin was...16? I think I rented the movie from Blockbuster some years ago, and I do recall reading about his adventures in the National Geographic, as I did the "Yankee" back in the fifties.

And what is that sailor Robin Lee Graham doing now?? https://www.vrbo.com/337539 Everything is on the internet. The Dove was a 1974 movie and yes directed by Gregory Peck. This article seems to be a little out of date as it states in the end that Robin still lives on the mountain, but I think at that vrbo site I pasted above Robin stated they left the ranch for the lake. https://boatingnz.co.nz/articles/sailor-scribes-robin-lee-graham/ On Thu, Jul 19, 2018 at 3:14 AM, Greg Beron gb… [at] yahoo.com [Cal_Boats] < Ca… [at] yahoogroups.com> wrote: > > > And if we want to get really, really technical Return of Dove was a Luders > 33, built by Allied. > > Greg Beron > Cal 29 Happy Hour > Marina Del Rey (but technically homeported in New Orleans) > > > On Wednesday, July 18, 2018, 11:27 PM, Gerald Sobel so… [at] yahoo.com > [Cal_Boats] <Ca… [at] yahoogroups.com> wrote: > > > > Ah stands corrected, judge.
