Balboa Yacht Club asked me to pass the word.

This should be a fun evening at Balboa Yacht Club.  I promise I'll be brief and hopefully interesting in my little talk about growing up in Newport Beach.  I'll touch on having the sixty five foot schooner  Kelpie in the family, starting, burning down and starting all over again Minney's Yacht Surplus, ocean racing and cruising, the Minney brothers starting Josh Slocum's restaurant and various sea stories.  Reservations a MUST.  Space is limited at the beautiful BALBOA YACHT CLUB on Bayside Avenue next door to the Coast Guard headquarters.  Sea you there.   Ernie

Thought I would take a few minutes and show you around the store today.

Those raw water pump power take-offs for Mann diesel engines are a fantastic buy.  We've
dropped the price to $49.00 each.  If you ever need one, your engine man will probably bill it out somewhere around $400.00?  We got them from the Sun Seeker yacht dealer when he was
moving to a smaller building.  We are still discounting all Kevlar-Carbon Fiber and Hi-Tech racing sails 33% till the end of April.  Have a great week.  Ernie
