Mary,

Sorry, but I have taken very few pictures over the years. If I knew then what I know now, I would have taken a picture of Rick working on the boat! It would have been a collectable!

I took a picture from the Waterfront's third floor looking down the beach at all the boats with all those colorful sails up just before they left the beach for the first race. There were 300 boats registered that year including 4 fleets of H16...60 in A-Fleet and 55 in B-Fleet, etc., etc... That was a beautiful site! Unfortunately, I can't seem to find that picture! It sure would be great for a "good ol' days" illustration!
