PASSING THE CENTURY ENTRY MARK
The Grand Poobah is tickled to report that 102 paid entries for the 2021 Ha-Ha have been received in the first six days. That’s the greatest number of boats in the shortest time in the 27 year history.
It was Zak Crawford-Levi’s Marina del Rey-based Newport 41 Bambu that was entry #100. Hey, Isn’t that a photo of Zak at the top of Bambu’s mast? It sure is.
We’ve been getting a lot of great crew photos for the Meet the Fleet guide that will be handed out at the Kick-Off Party on October 31.
Have we got one from Diane Berol of her and her husband John’s San Diego-based Pacific Seacraft 42 Celtic Song? Sure have. That’s Diane with the gloved right hand, the dog, and the big smile. Celtic Song is entry #91.
We knew that Kevin and Katie Millett of the Kalaheo, Kauai custom 50 cat Kalewa would send a great photo because this is his fourth Ha-Ha with Kalewa and her second. They are the ones jumping up and down on the foredeck.
The Poobah has a special request. Whenever communicating with the Ha-Ha, always include your name, your boat name, and your entry number. And please, please, please, check the spelling on your entry form. It’s a nightmare for the Poobah having to go back and make corrections.
If you do sign up, it make take a couple of days to appear on the Ha-Ha page because Patsy, the Assistant Poobah, processes all the entries, and she’s on Talion cruising the Sea of Cortez and not always in internet range. Thanks for understanding.
