Charlie --

We have a reallly fine Maritime Museum, including the renowned "Star of India", born Euterpe, a gigantic iron-hulled barquentine (I think) with towering masts and yards. She still sails on occasion out from San Diego bHarbor and looks like the most beautiful lady. There are several other fine old ships around her as well, including a recently acquired customs cutter. I haven't been down there in quite a while but it is one of the loveliest parts of our waterfront. As to Shanty Singers, I am embarassed to say I dinna know what we have, really.

Brett -- it'sbeginnning to look like you shold stay an extra year just to catch all these fine places in this neck o' the woods!
