Bones...did you keep Denny out of the "Pappy Van Winkle"

In a word, NO!
Was able to share with SkipperT, Blue Heron and GFS & offered some to No Bones & crew but they were in a hurry to return to work!
Nothing like good times with great friends, good food and good Bourbon! Getting to see Carl and Jeanne again was the highlight! Gave Carl an old book I bought years ago titled "High Performance Powerboats", written in 1968 by Uffa Fox, an English naval architect. Carl knew about Uffa Fox and said he was also a well known sailboat designer, but that he never had time to go over there to participate in the rough Cowes to Torquay race in the English Channel during the early 60's. (He was too busy winning races over here!
) He seemed to be real interested in reading this fairly technical book.
Thanks again to SkipnCarla for being such generous and gracious hosts and to Dave & Julie for supplying the bugs we weren't able to nail in the Key Largo area! Denny
