"Eight Bells"

The "SAIL-EBRATION"of life for my younger brother Owen Minney will be January 31st at the American Legion Post in Newport Beach.  The address is 215-15th St.  It's easy to find. Just take Balboa Blvd. towards the Fun Zone. The tall tower of the catholic church is on 15th St., the church is on the ocean side of the street and the American Legion looks right out on the bay.  Please bring photos for the poster board and be prepared to share a few "O" stories etc.? The time will be from 4PM to 7PM.  The "hero" photo of Owen was taken by Gunnar Andersen and made the cover of "Pacific Skipper" magazine in August 1974.  Owen is in the process of putting the big Alden schooner, "Constellation"far astern of the "Kelpie" in a race back from Catalina island.  More info call or e-mail the store.
