[C38] San Francisco Sailors

[Don Strong]

Steve: Your welcoming committee might be at the San Francisco Bar. If 
the waves and tides are right you will have a pleasant entry, if not 
entry could be like the image below.  Two pals of mine abandoned the 
double handed lightship race a few weeks ago owing to horrid waves in 
the channel. Don
