Cover

The Beatles arrived in Miami on February 13, 1964, and after being whisked past 7,000 to 10,000 screaming, marauding teenage fans at the airport to the grand, sun-washed Deauville Hotel on Collins Avenue, they slipped into matching terry-cloth cabana outfits and hit the beach. “It was a big time for us,” Paul recalled, “and there were all these lovely, gorgeous, tanned girls.”

The next morning, February 14th, they were to have a Life Magazine photo shoot at the hotel pool. For practical purposes, though, the Deauville could not seal off the area from its other guests, and the place was a mob scene and impossible to navigate. At the last minute, arrangements were made to have the shoot at a nearby private pool. Despite a sudden cold snap, Manager Brian Epstein ordered them right into the pool.

As a reward, they were whisked off for an afternoon’s cruise aboard Southern Trail, a 93-foot yacht with a full crew owned by the sofa-bed magnate Bernard Castro, a member of the Coral Ridge Yacht Club (note the CRYC burgee). By midday the tropical sun had broken through, allowing them to take advantage of the climate. They went for a lazy group swim in the ocean. Later, Paul sat behind the yacht’s piano and banged out a few lines of their next single, “Can’t Buy Me Love.”

After their Sunday, February 16th, evening performance for Ed Sullivan, the Beatles still had nearly eight days in paradise and wanted to sample its pleasures. New York had been an eye-opening experience, but Miami lay even further outside any world the Beatles had ever known. For a bunch of boys who hailed from a gritty, impoverished industrial port, having played gloomy Hamburg and rainy London, Miami was a whole other universe—sun and fun, slick borscht-belt showbiz, yachts, drive-ins, and grilled-cheese sandwiches. They went back home and remained the Beatles, cranking out prototypical Beatles songs like “A Hard Day’s Night” and “I Feel Fine.”

The rest is history …

Commodores's Comments

Vice Commodore’s Comments

Welcome back returning members to the Coral Ridge Yacht Club. Many have traveled extensively, and those that have shared pictures during their summer travels have made the rest of us quite jealous! To those that missed Irma’s South Florida visit, lucky you.

Make sure you plan to attend our first Flag Lowering Ceremony of the season on November 10th; we will be honoring all CRYC service members that evening.

The 70th Anniversary Gala and Past Commodores’ Ball will be held on Saturday, November 11th, so please make your reservations ASAP. It is going to be a great event!

Thanksgiving is right around the corner. Michele and I are so thankful for such a wonderful life, and especially for all our friends at Coral Ridge Yacht Club.

The Club has become our family here in South Florida and continues to create wonderful memories we will forever cherish. Make plans to attend the Thanksgiving dinner here at the Club, or, should you rather dine at home, Chef Glenn will prepare carry-out turkey dinners with all the trimmings.

The Holidays are just around the corner; look for the holiday decorations to transform the Club right after Thanksgiving.

The annual Holiday Burgee Bar Tree Trimming and Cookie Exchange party will be held on Friday, December 1st. Bring an ornament to hang on the member tree, and enjoy the cookies that will be available.

There is much to be thankful for, and I hope we all take time this Thanksgiving to reflect on the many blessings we have as a Club and as members.

Michele and I will see you at the Club soon!!!

As we enter the new season, it looks like this will be a great year for all the members with a full schedule of events planned, as well as the special 70th Anniversary Gala and Past Commodores’ Ball. The hurricane was a setback, but the Club is now fully recovered with the excellent work of the staff.

The comment cards for September expressed essentially a 100% very good satisfaction with the food and beverage service. The management and staff are doing their best in this effort, so let us look at what is great about the Club instead of focusing on small things that may not be perfect. If you have an opportunity, please compliment the staff on the job they are doing, and tell them how much you appreciate their efforts.

A new service being provided by the Club this year will be complete TURKEY DINNERS TO GO for Thanksgiving that can serve four and eight people. Please see the flyer in this Log for pricing and details.

The Intracoastal Banquet Bar plans have been submitted to contractors, and they have provided their bids.

The bids will be reviewed by the Buildings and Grounds Committee, and a decision will be made on how to proceed. The House subcommittee is formulating ideas concerning the Burgee Bar to help improve its appearance without sacrificing the ambience and tradition.

The redecoration will be done in stages with the goal of not significantly affecting the Burgee Bar’s availability.

The House Committee has worked hard, and we should all appreciate their time and service.

CORAL RIDGE YACHT CLUB THURSDAY, DECEMBER 7TH AT 6:30 P.M. 4

November, 2017

Coral Ridge Yacht Club

Rear Commodore’s Comments In 1947 Harry Truman was President, the U.S. population was 144 million and you could buy a loaf of bread for 13 cents. The news show Meet the Press debuted on NBC, the technology wonder of the year was the Polaroid camera and "A Streetcar Named Desire" opened on Broadway. Further south that same year a handful of ambitious Fort Lauderdale professionals drew up a charter for the Coral Ridge Yacht Club, and that is when our story began.

A lot has changed since then ... the population of the U.S. is over 323 million, and a loaf of bread could easily cost you $4.00. One thing that hasn't changed is the common desire of CRYC members to share in a social life centered around entertainment, great food and yachting. Here we are 70 years later, and, in case you haven't noticed, this year has brought us the largest increase in new members in over 13 years, our Entertainment calendar is bursting at the seams with more live shows than we've ever hosted and the wonderful dinners presented by our Chef are meals to be proud of. CRYC is experiencing a renaissance of sorts in this, our 70th year, and you are all a part of it.

Join in our Anniversary Gala on Saturday, November 11th, and celebrate the ongoing successes of Coral Ridge Yacht Club. This evening will be a dual celebration of our 70th Anniversary and our Past Commodores, and it is going to be a beautiful, memorable evening for all.

November also brings us an Epicurean Dinner on Thursday, the 2nd, hosted by Cathy Olson and Dr. Don Lawrynuik, and on Friday, November 10th, we're honoring ALL of our veterans for our first Flag Lowering Ceremony of the season. Our Gala is on the 11th, and then Chef Glenn will be creating a Thanksgiving feast on Thursday, November 23rd. After the hustle and bustle of the holiday you can enjoy a relaxing evening on Saturday, the 25th, with the talented John Melnick.

In this month of November, let us all be thankful for all that we have ... our Family and Friends, our Health and our Faith. Be thankful for this wonderful little corner in our world, CRYC, that has brought us happiness in good times and comfort in sad times, where respect, friendship and love abound. We are all truly blessed to be a part of something so special!

General Manager Jay Wallace and Rear Commodore Carolyn Greenlaw accepted a Proclamation from the City Commissioners of the City of Fort Lauderdale proclaiming November 11, 2017 as Coral Ridge Yacht Club 70th Anniversary Day. The Proclamation was signed by Mayor John “Jack” Seiler and presented by Vice Mayor Bruce Roberts (pictured above).

Fleet Captain’s Comments Well, we made it through Irma. The docks and the boats came through with flying (sailing) colors. Everyone did a good job ensuring that the boats and equipment on the docks were secure before the storm. I want to thank everyone for following our Hurricane Plan. We all came together as the Coral Ridge Yacht Club Family. We all should be proud of the commitment given to the safety of our property and especially of our friends. Communication was constant before, during and after Irma with texting and calling. We even had a few “Rock Stars” like Doug Mitchell, Bill Cirillo, Ray Zglobicki and Chip Starkey, who weathered the storm on their boats and walked the docks, reporting to others on the condition of their boats.

Thanks also to our Commodores for evaluating the damage just after the storm, and taking immediate action to start repairs. Some rearranging of the boats has had to be done to assist with the repairs. The face dock is being used for this purpose.

This was a first for Ginny and me. We have experienced many earthquakes in California, but we had to agree that the stress from the ”waiting” period of Hurricane Irma exceeded our expectations.

We would like to welcome back all our CRYC friends returning from their summer up north.

HOLIDAY TIME HAS ARRIVED …

CRYC Women’s Auxiliary

Anc’Hers

“Women on the Water”

Happy 102nd Birthday to our Past President Bette Robinson!!

Auxiliary started off the new season with our monthly meeting and luncheon featuring our own member, Margie Nagle. She gave a very interesting and informative presentation on how to accessorize our outfits. It was a very entertaining afternoon.

The Passport to Fashion: New York fashion show will be held on Wednesday, November 8th. Sondro’s will provide fashions for the CRYC models who will also be wearing fantastic jewels provided by Daoud’s Fine Jewelry. You can look forward to the 50/50 raffle and a wonderful silent auction. Make your reservations now, and be ready to take a bite out of the Big Apple!

Auxiliary is proud to announce that we have reached our 100 member goal! Welcome new members Patricia Kearson and Patty Robinson!

Welcome back Anc’Hers to the second half of 2017! We hope you had a spectacular summer of fun, family and good memories. We look forward to a busy fall and winter and hope that you plan to join us for our schedule of events. During our October 17th luncheon, Melanie Popper introduced our own (Ta-Da!) Chef Glenn, who demonstrated his skills in making our delicious lunch, and answered questions from the members. Our wonderful Wick Museum Tour was October 24th. We know you all enjoyed it. A big thank you to Marty Wetzel for being our Hostess!

At our November 7th luncheon, well-known cardiologist, Dr. Zachariah, will speak to us about our heart health. This is something we all should attend. Our December event is still in the works. January 9th brings our white elephant gift exchange, so dig out those treasures you have been hiding.

January 20th is our one and only Island Casino Night. I can feel the soft breezes and hear the Island music already.

Cruisin’ With The Cruisers

CRYC Family Activities

The weather has not been kind to the Cruisers in recent months. The August cruise to Star Island was cancelled due to three days of heavy rains. The September cruise to Palm Harbor was cancelled because Hurricane Irma damaged many of the Cruisers’ homes and boats, and floating debris made the Waterway treacherous. And, the Ocean Reef Yacht Club could not accommodate the October cruise because of severe hurricane damage to its docks. However, we were undaunted and the Moseleys and Lincolns hosted a fun-filled raft-up at University Cove, accurately identified on some charts as “Heaven in Miami.”

On Friday night we had docktails and dinner at Shucker's Waterfront Bar & Grill on the 79th Street Causeway. Cruisers in the Cove were given a ride to Shucker’s aboard Joe Moseley’s Yum Yum and served Yum Yum punch along the way. Members who did not come by boat drove to Shucker’s, and a good time was had by all. Saturday morning was Bloody Marys and Mimosas aboard Yum Yum and Cashing In and the afternoon was spent having fun aboard paddle boards, kayaks and dinghies. Saturday night, the Moseleys and Lincolns topped off the weekend by hosting cocktails and dinner aboard Yum Yum and Cashing In. Thank you Joe and Terri and Dennis and Judy!

PLEASE REMEMBER – you do not need to own a boat to be a Cruiser and participate in the Cruisers’ activities.

Looking Ahead

So happy to transition into the fall months here at CRYC. This is one of my favorite times of the year here since we are having some of my favorite Family Activities coming up. Make sure you check the Log and also online to get details for all the Family Activities. Some of them do require reservations. We had two brand new events - the Scavenger Hunt and Zoo Day. The kids also had a beautiful time releasing the butterflies. Everyone had an amazing time, and we have some great pictures from the events.

I know many of you come to the regular Family Activities with your children, but we also have some great adult parties and events that provide child activities while you attend the events. This is a great opportunity to enjoy other aspects that the Club has to offer.

Some other great events throughout the fall include:

November 3rd – Movie Night – “Beauty and the Beast” November 10th – Turkey Olympics November 17th – Holiday Hayride December 2nd – Gingerbread Houses December 3rd – Brunch with Santa Be sure to check out the photos from all the family activities on the Coral Ridge Yacht Club Facebook page: search Coral Ridge Yacht Club (Private Group). Also make sure to post any pictures you take at CRYC events to our page and #CRYC. You can also see all the other upcoming CRYC events, including Family Activities, on the CRYC website: www.coralridgeyachtclub.com.

We hope to see you at one of the upcoming events at CRYC.

CRYC Captains' Club

Book Club

Welcome back Captains! The Captains’ Club is back in full swing. We meet every Tuesday for lunch at 11:30 in the northeast corner of the Wheel Room.

We currently have guest speakers booked for the first Tuesdays of December, January and February. On December 5, our first speaker will be Captain Gerry Pannell. Gerry will be talking on MODERN DAY PIRACY. As we all know, piracy is still a very real issue in some areas. Captain Pennell is a consultant to several United States departments that deal with the issue. This promises to be a very interesting talk.

This month we are reading a deeply moving memoir entitled Hillbilly Elegy by J.D. Vance. The New York Times remarked that Mr. Vance compassionately describes the white underclass that fueled the campaign of Donald Trump. We will meet on Friday, November 10, 2017. Our facilitator is Susan Penn.

The Vance family story begins in postwar America.

Vance’s grandparents were dirt poor, but in love, and moved north to Ohio in the hopes of escaping poverty. They raised a middle class family, and their grandchildren would achieve great success. However, they never escaped the legacy of abuse, alcoholism, poverty and trauma.

Please make reservations at the front desk and, at that time, make your lunch selection from the variety of sandwiches (egg salad, tuna salad, or chicken salad) on white, wheat or rye bread. A Cobb salad is also available. Lunch is promptly at 12 noon when the book discussion begins.

For our December meeting, we will be reading Our New York by Edith Wharton. Our facilitator is Barbara Petrello.

December 5th – 11:30 Luncheon Speaker Capt. Gerry Pannell: Modern Day Piracy January 2nd – 11:30 Luncheon Speaker Commodore Greg Bennett: The Current State of CRYC February 6th – 11:30 Luncheon Speaker P/C Bob Epstein The Coral Ridge Sailing & Water Sports Foundation

Burgee Spotlight

Membership Director’s Comments

PAST COMMODORE LEN TOWER

Gratitude. What is it?

Robert Emmons, Ph.D., Professor of Psychology at UC Davis, is possibly the world’s leading scientific expert on gratitude, and he argues that gratitude has two key components. First, he states that gratitude is an affirmation of “goodness,” that within gratitude we are affirming that there are good things in the world, gifts and benefits we’ve received. The second part is that we recognize that the sources of this goodness are from outside of ourselves … that we acknowledge that other people - or even higher powers – give us many gifts, big and small, to help us achieve goodness in our lives.

Emmons and other researchers see the social dimension as being especially important to gratitude. He states, “I see it as a relationship-strengthening emotion because it requires us to see how we’ve been supported and affirmed by other people.”

The reason I bring this up is that it struck me how our CRYC membership personifies this in spades. We are all here to support, affirm and strengthen each other. Our goals are the same goals, and we all work together in unison to accomplish these, and we do it from a place of “goodness.”

This month we welcome 6 new members to the Club! Our membership now surges to 330, and in 15 months (since I started) we have added a total of 78 new members to our Club. What a way to usher in our 70th Anniversary Gala!

I am proud and so happy, but feel gratitude in such a huge way, as none of this would have been possible without the support I have received from General Manager Jay Wallace, Commodore Greg Bennett, Membership Chairman Larry Bohannon, Governor Pru Lewis, Rear Commodore Carolyn Greenlaw, the Membership Committee, the Board of Governors and literally the entire CRYC membership. Together we have done this. Together, through our sheer love of the Club and unified vision, we are turning the tides and a seismic shift is occurring. Ladies and Gentlemen – we are on the cusp of transformative growth for CRYC. I know I always say “thank you” to you all, but this little slice of heaven is my home, too, and it just gives me so much joy to see CRYC growing and thriving. We have turned the sails of this ship, and I see nothing but blue horizons, calm seas and many more members to come in the coming months and years!

This month we celebrate our Past Commodores along with our 70th Anniversary Gala on November 11th. We are also featuring Past Commodore Len Tower’s burgee as our Burgee of the Month!

Len joined the Coral Ridge Yacht Club in 1998 and served as our Commodore in 2010. As a long time boater, his burgee represents the more than 70 years that he has been cruising and indicates many, but certainly not all, the countries he has visited while cruising. When you next see Past Commodore Tower in the Burgee Bar, make sure to ask him about his many adventures while cruising.

Fort Lauderdale’s Fast Signs (954-566-8500) is offering a 10% discount to CRYC members to create your own burgee.

Please contact Michele Bennett (817-371-1048 or michele@ consultbennett.com) or Fleet Captain and Immediate Past Commodore Marver Glenn (510-599-0757 or marvglenn@ mindspring.com) if you are interested in creating your burgee. You do not have to own a boat! We would love to see all of our CRYC members with burgees hanging in the Burgee Bar and tell their stories in our monthly Log. Submitted by Michele Bennett

Manager’s Comments

The Beginning Of The Fort Lauderdale Boat Parade

The Season is here, and the staff and I welcome back everyone. There’s a lot going on this season, and we can’t wait to get started.

So let’s go!

For those who weren’t aware, we lost Coral, our house cat. Coral, along with Captain Ron, kept us very safe for the last 14 years from the outside creatures wanting to gain access. It was his time, and he’s in Kitty Land in the sky. But there are some of us who remained on for the summer who may have noticed two new additions – Tom and Jerry. Tom and Jerry, along with Captain Ron, protect the Club during the night-time activities of some unwanted critters.

Our receptionist, Donna Wagoner, went to the Humane Society and was able to adopt two small kittens. They are still too small to be out on their own, but within a month or so they should be on their way toward accomplishing their role at the Club. I would like to emphasize that these are working cats and shouldn’t be handled and/or fed. I know the resistance of holding them is hard because they are cute and irresistible, but they are feral animals and need to defend themselves and not rely on us to constantly feed them. They are being housed in a nice cat cage but soon will be able to roam the grounds on their own.

Another subject that we must address is the dress code.

When coming into the main clubhouse, you must be properly attired. Dress shorts are allowed in the Wheel Room; however bathing suits, even on small children, are not allowed to be in the clubhouse at all. If you need to use the inside restrooms, members and guests must have on shoes and wear a cover-up over their swimsuits. This is a must!

Holidays parties are getting booked, and Chef Glenn has a lot of good food planned for these events. Thanksgiving is always a big one here; however, if you are planning to enjoy the holiday at home, the Club is offering Turkey Dinners to go, if you need to entertain some family, friends, or unexpected guests. Please see the enclosed flyer for details.

Can you believe it? It’s already the Holidays.

As always, see you at your Club!

HONORING THE FAMILY AND THE CORAL RIDGE YACHT CLUB MEMBER WHO STARTED IT – MR. FRANCIS J. SCHUSTER Over the years, Francis J. Schuster and his wife, Evangeline, traveled more than 10,000 miles on his boat, “Trade Winds,” with family and friends as willing crew.

One evening, Francis (father) and Diane (daughter) were on their vessel, “Trade Winds,” going up the Intracoastal Waterway from Fort Lauderdale. They arrived at Lake Santa Barbara, in Pompano, and saw all these decorated boats coming from the lake. The police were present telling everyone to stop until the parade went through. Since “Trade Winds” was all decorated with lights, as it always was during the holidays, Fran, as he was called, suggested that they join the parade, and they did. Fran thought it was “neat” and that there should be a Fort Lauderdale Boat Parade.

At the time, Fran was serving on the Marine Advisory Board of Fort Lauderdale and suggested the adoption of a Fort Lauderdale Boat Parade, and they went with the idea. He organized and led the first annual Christmas Boat Parade in 1971. For several years, “Trade Winds” was the lead boat in the Boat Parade which began from Port Everglades. Fran was even awarded a small plaque for initiating this beautiful tradition, which he proudly mounted on “Trade Winds,” where it remained even after the vessel was sold.

Francis Schuster and his wife, Evangeline, joined the Coral Ridge Yacht Club in 1966. Over his many years of membership, he served as a Governor to the Board during 1969 and 1970, and, again, during 1976 and 1977; served as Secretary to the Board during 1981 through 1985; served as Fleet Captain during 1970, 1987, 1988 and 1989; and served as Fleet Chaplain during 1978, 1991 and 1992. Daughter Diane continued her Legacy membership with the Club right up until her passing in October of 2015.

The Winterfest Boat Parade is an annual tradition that has been held every December in Fort Lauderdale since 1971. The event has been judged as one of the top 10 parades in the world among 50,000 parades.

The Coral Ridge Yacht Club is proud and honored to have had the Schuster family as members who have not only given so much to their fine Club, but have left the City of Fort Lauderdale with a wonderful legacy – THE WINTERFEST BOAT PARADE. Thank you Fran!

A VIEW FROM THE COCKPIT

by Doug Mitchell

Old Fashion Navigation (Part 1 of 3) Early in November of 1968 I found myself serving as navigator aboard a beautiful, strong 38' CORAL RIDGE YACHT CLUB Dutch-built steel yawl with varnished wooden masts. Three Sailing & Watersports Foundation, Inc. 501 (c) (3) of my mates from Newport and I decided to seek adventure and WE WANT TO THANK head south for the winter. Captain and owner Ken (a very capable ALL OF OUR GENEROUS SPONSORS delivery captain), his girlfriend FOR THEIR SUPPORT! Sue (just graduated from Smith College) and professional Captain Willy and I were ready, and the Commodore Greg and Michele Bennett “Mitch” on his 41’ ketch, weather looked good. the “JL SEAGULL” Past Commodore and Governor Bob Epstein The first day and a half out from Immediate Past Commodore and Fleet Captain Newport was uneventful, but as dusk settled over us on the Marver and Ginny Glenn second day, the first strong cold front of the season greeted us with strong winds out of the WNW. Willy and I had the mid-watch Vice Commodore Tom and Karen Vitale (midnight to 0400), and it was that night that I became intimate Rear Commodore Carolyn Greenlaw and Doug Mitchell with the stars. It seemed as if there was nothing between us and the rest of the galaxy. Due to the extremely low humidity, Governor Maynard and Andrea Hellman lack of clouds and moon, we were treated to a fantastic view of Past Commodore John and Lisa Keefe the heavens. We were awestruck by the beauty of the sky and Secretary Richard and Gloria Scheff saw stars we had never seen before. The next two days were a sailor's dream -- lots of wind (25 to 35 knots) and sailing in the Carl “Andy” andCLUB Susie Anderson CORAL RIDGE YACHT CLUB CORAL RIDGE YACHT CLUB CORAL RIDGE YACHT lee of the east coast. Beam reaching close to the beach yielded Sailing Watersports Foundation, Inc. Sailing &&Watersports Foundation, Sailing & Watersports Foundation, Inc.Inc. Gilbert “Gil” and Terry Bieger almost flat water - perfect sailing conditions.

Navigation in those days was a challenge - we had no LORAN Joe and Donna Kern or fancy GPS-driven chart plotters. In order to find your position Governor Pru Lewis using celestial navigation it was necessary to be able to see the horizon and a star at the same time to obtain the angle Melanie Popper with the sextant. Obviously, this can only be accomplished at Mary Short twilight in the evening and morning, thus eliminating any chance Bill and Angela Kruger of obtaining fixes at night. We had a crude depth sounder - a spinning neon lamp affair that allowed us to see the bottom at Commodore Greg and Michele Bennett | Joanne Past Commodore Bob Epstein Commodore and Michele Bennett | Commodore Past Commodore Bob Epstein Richard Pisano Commodore GregGreg and Michele Bennett | and Past Bob Epstein 200 feet. We sailed close enough to the beach that night to allow Immediate Past Commodore Fleet Captain Marver Ginny Glenn Immediate Past Commodore andand Fleet Captain Marver andand Ginny Glenn Immediate Past Commodore and Fleet Captain Marver andBohannon Ginny Glenn Larry and Barbara us to obtain fixes from the occasional light house. Our safety was Rear Commodore Carolyn Greenlaw and Doug Mitchell | Governor Maynard and Andrea Hellman Rear Commodore Carolyn Greenlaw and Doug Mitchell | Governor Maynard and Andrea Hellman Rear Commodore Carolyn Greenlaw and Doug Mitchell | Governor Maynard and Andrea Hellman in jeopardy if we got too close to the beach, and if we got too farPastPastCommodore Leigh Orlov and James Sattler Commodore John and Lisa Keefe | Secretary Richard and Gloria Scheff | Joe and Donna Kern John and Lisa Keefe | Secretary Richard and Gloria Scheff | Joe and Donna Past Commodore John and Lisa Keefe | Secretary Richard and Gloria Scheff | Joe and Donna KernKern offshore the seas were ferocious. We kept watchful eyes on that Governor Pru Lewis | Leigh Orlov and James Sattler Governor Pru Lewis | Leigh Orlov and James Sattler “Mickey” andSattler Ellen Flood Governor Pru Charles Lewis | Leigh Orlov and James old depth finder that night and managed to blast into the safety Mary Short | and Larry Barbara Bohannon | Charles “Mickey” Ellen Flood Short | Larry andand Barbara Bohannon | Charles “Mickey” andand Ellen Flood MaryMary Short | Larry Barbara Bohannon | Charles “Mickey” and Ellen Flood CRYC Ladies Auxiliary of the Chesapeake Bay the next day.

Looking back, it seems a bit reckless - we could have lost the CRYC Public Relations Committee boat and our lives by running aground offshore in that kind of weather, but we were young and adventurous and our skills pulled us through. It was one of the fastest, most exciting sails of my life and another of life's building blocks. Today with a modern chart plotter this trip would not have been dangerous.

Next month: Part 2 - Going inside from Norfolk to Morehead City, North Carolina to avoid Cape Hatteras and then offshore to the Bahamas.
