Re: [Cal_Boats] Dick Deaver

I see and hear the name Dick Deaver a lot in conversations, magazines, etc.. and of by now know he is an accomplished sailor/racer. His son lives here in Santa Barbara and is a sailor also, but he has not nearly reached the level of his famous father. He used to have an Olson 30 with a partner but I have not seen him racing lately. I wonder if he is a casualty of life/family getting in the way.

Dan ... I've known Doug since he was a kid. Prior to that first race I sailed to Mexico with his dad back in '71, he slipped me a note, asking me to buy him all of the fire-crackers that I could, and also asked that I not tell his dad. As it turned out, fireworks were not available in southern baja, only up north around Ensenada and Rosarito Beach. Doug is good sailor, and was part of the crew I put together for the '77 TransPac on the Cal-40 "Vivant" (1st in Class D), and we sailed several Congressional Cups together with Dick. I believe that Doug's boat is / was a Henderson 30. Doug & his wife have lots of interests, including motorhomes and (more recently) helecopters.
