Marc and I have our c27 moored in San Diego Bay. As we are geographically removed from the Carrabian and the euphoria of the rum experience, we have found that Napa valley merlot seems to have the same results experienced by our fraternal cat 27 bros on the East coast. We do also enhance our libations with peanuts in the shell. As a footnote to you all on the other coast, you have an open invitation in the wintertime as The Brown Eyed Girls is always afloat. Marc and Bruce
