    I don't believe that there was a "Super Vee Class" then (1990). We all were in the Open Class: cats and Vee's together.

    In the race 20 years ago tomorrow, (race 2), the Open Class winner was Allez Vite.

    Four Cuban refugees motored up Riviera Canal and tied up to Jimmy Buffett's dock. He gave them something to drink and some of his tapes before they were turned over to immigration services.
