I thought you might enjoy the highlights of last night's "Beer Can" yacht race in Newport Harbor.  As you can see, we've got some pretty high tech boats in our little harbor.  The "Beer Can" race is a Newport tradition that has been going on for over 25 years.  As you can see from the size of the crew aboard some of the boats, everyone's invited.  Show up at the Balboa Yacht Club dock about an hour before the race with a six-pack of beer and you'll be sure to end up on a boat.  Big party at the yacht club afterward.  Also, it never ceases to amaze me the stuff some people have stashed away.  Yesterday we picked up approximately one ton of "Winchard" first quality S.S. hardware. Snap shackles, carbiners, jib hanks, eye bolts etc. etc.  With such a huge amount, you know our prices will be the best in the West.
