We were finishing while the reach helecopter circled,, fire boat crossed through the finish line the wrong direction and there was a firetruck near elephant rock... This went on for a good half hour... Must have been when the ferry was returning to port,
I was told by some one at the CYC , a person may have been thrown through the power boat windshield.

Nice Foto ,

It was probably the sun reflecting off the trophy that blinded the powerboater momentarily causing him
to swerve into the ferry boat at a high rate of speed.

Just saw in the news that one of the boaters died -

The victim was identified as 68-year-old Harry Holzhauer, of Tigard, Ore., Coast Guard Lt. j.g. Mark Leahey said.

Condolences to next of kin, at least he went out with a bang!

Messed up way to start a 3 day weekend.

1st Annual Rob Moore Memorial Regatta



The Sun shown and the wind blew. The CYC's 1st annual Rob Moore Memorial Regatta
was basked in all things good, much like Rob Moore himself, no doubt smiling from above. With winds from the north and a negligible tide shift, Saturdays participants enjoyed a race downhill start and pleasant ride across the Bay to the City Front to Blossom and back. Don Payan's new MC38, "Whiplash" did not fare well Saturday, but finally got their 1st Ace Sunday when the more traditional westerlies filled in..

As Rob Moore himself might say "A Classic Cluster F#@% at Blossom"




Currently rated #6 on the National Mens Basketball rankings, whoever scribbled this
is overly optimistic...We all know Cal is going to maul the competition in March...
