This weekend, I am going to visit my old friend, Howard Abbey, who lives near me in Islamorada. None of you (except MP) ever heard his name. What did he build? Aronow's first raceboat, "Claudia". Jim Wynne's orignal "Wyn-mil". Del and Mona Daily's "Oh, Mona!", which won every race in the F-Service Class (Very competetive) for about 10 years. The winner of the 1956 Gold Goast Marathon, "Hurricane", versus 240 competitors, from Miami to Palm Beach and back, and countless others. You want fargin' history?

COULD YOU HAVE HOWARD PASS A COUPLE OF HIS STORIES
ON TO THE BOARD ? I LIKED THE ONE YOU HAD AT A
BOAT SHOW ( "WIFE WANTS A DONZI" ). ENJOY YOUR VISIT.

Okay, Mr. Brownie, sir, maybe it would be easier for us all if you simply told us what you don't know! As usual, I bow to the master wordsmith... and have a new favorite phrase... can't wait to use it on a few victims!

Have a great visit this weekend and try to tell mostly the truth when you spin your yarns!

Bunches,
