Have discussed with Bill Wheeler, Ted Colby and Ben Marrone with a decision to have a Grand National send off for Bob.

Afternoon of Saturday January 31st here at my place in Whittier. There's room for several Grand National boats and a hundred or more of Bob's family, friends and competitors.

Billy Wheeler will have Bob's GN7 boat here and we're hoping for more local GN's to have a cackle-fest GN style, with a of couple beers, some food and most importantly FRIENDS together to swap Bob stories, laugh and remember our recently departed friend.

Details to follow and a request for boat count and head count later on. Get it on your calendar NOW.
