RE: [Cal_Boats] S-B to K-H 2007 the Ultimate Cal Reunion (Wilkie and Dan)

It's a date. We have a whole, entire year to get this on the books. We need some SF Bay boats as well, and some from Santa Cruz and Monterrey and Newport Beach and maybe even from, say, Kings Harbor and LA. What the heck, let's open this up the to the entire left coast and the inland lakes (hey, Reggie?). Maybe we can even get dEmO to come down from Portland. I'd be wiling to help him ferry his much modified 9.2 on its bottom, or on my trailer... It might be too hard for an old guy like Timm to sail down, though. He's getting up in years (and miles). Hehehe. We might even get Matt Farrell to join in. I'd like to ask Charlie Husar right now to crew with us. Oh yeah, and Kevin Farrell - I know that he misses Crackerjack. I'll probably also ask Steve Seals to come along. He's usually up to this kind of goofiness. Who are you going to invite? My crew will be treated to a fine 1969 Firestone cabernet and a great dinner of succulent beef stew. And of course, on arrival, a winners' surprise champagne. Bill used to say it was an embarrassingly fast boat. He was right. The 2-30 is just, flat-out fast. This will be the Bill Lapworth/Jack Jensen Appreciation Race. And, as always, I will supply the trophy for the corrected time Cal winner. It's time for us Cals to get out and strut our stuff! Let's start it now and get as many Cals as we can to do this race. I can promise you right now that St. Lori's Comet will be there. And assuming I'm still alive (after the way former Jensen employees are dying off, lately) I hope to make it myself. St. Lori, Macaroni (my personal dog) and I have voted and we are definitely determined to do this race. BE AFRAID. BE VERY AFRAID! So let's see who else might get in play... Great fun! \Rog Cal 29+ #1 Swiss Navy Cal 2-30 #77 St. Lori's Comet P.S. St. Lori and I can't thank you enough for the book!

I'd bet we could put together another Cal List All-Star crew for your effort and maybe talk a couple of our other Channel Island Cal boats into entering.

As in, "If anyone says, 'merlot,' I'm leaving."??? Chas, if this means your crewing services (sailing content) can be had for a bottle of wine, you bet! How about a 1974 Wente? \Rog Cal 29+ #1 Swiss Navy Cal 2-30 #77 St. Lori's Comet _____ From: Ca… [at] yahoogroups.com [mailto:Ca… [at] yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Husar Charlie Sent: Saturday, August 26, 2006 4:52 AM To: Ca… [at] yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [Cal_Boats] S-B to K-H 2007 the Ultimate Cal Reunion (Wilkie and Dan) Rog, you got any Merlot?

Channel Islands? Do I hear my/our name? Count me in! I bet we can get the famous CAL25 Zumma Jay to enter. How about the CAL 34 Allegra? CAL 29:Barefoot? He has a buddy with a CAL 34 that is sitting around and we know of a CAL 28 FLAT TOP and 2 other 29's that we can recruit as well. Oh yeah, The CAL 31 -Summerset may bite as well. If we get enough, maybe a CAL 29 class? I can see what you mean Rog.

I know a lot of the Mfr's such as Catalina, Hunter, Beneteau etc. have annual rendezvous. since these boats are not manufactured anymore, we could put one together as owner (this of course is assuming there isn't already one and I'm not aware!)
