*Join us in the Main Dining Room* *Friday, July 28th 2023* *from 4:30 PM to 5:00 PM* *The World Premiere of the short film* *The McNish Classic Regatta* *When History Comes Alive* *Introduced by:* *Mark Albertazzi* *The McNish Classic Regatta. When History Comes Alive.* *The story behind one of the most beloved classic regattas* *and its namesake founder.* *Richard “Dick” McNish grew up in Santa Barbara, California, where he discovered and nurtured a life-long love for sailing. The short film from nautical photographer Mark Albertazzi, relives the 45-year history behind the McNish Classic Regatta, its namesake founder, and his treasured classic yacht, Cheerio ll. This heartwarming documentary tells the story of one man’s passionate determination to preserve, and enjoy to the fullest, a piece of American maritime history.* *Quote:* *“The constant I’ve witnessed in the realm of classic wooden boats, is that folks like Dick McNish see themselves more as caretakers and stewards of a piece of maritime history, than that of owner. Dick’s relationship with the greater sailing community and his beloved family boat, Cheerio II, is a heartwarming testament to the ideas of commitment, perseverance, and preservation.” — Mark Albertazzi* *From a series of oral maritime history films by Mark Albertazzi, with support from the Ancient Mariners Educational Fund, Ancient Mariners Sailing Society, and* *Maritime Museum of San Diego.* Pacific Corinthian Yacht Club 2600 S.
