Sailing in Marina del Rey

I came here regularly for business. This picture shows Marina del Rey in the background. The Marina towers are to the left.

This is the view from the bow of Joe Bud's boat. Too bad he sold it a few years ago after buying a house in Playa del Rey. That house is probably a better investment.... Picture from mid 1980's. They skyline has changed alot since then.

I was here on 22-June-02 to sail with the Women's Saling Association (WSA) of Santa Monica Bay.

I was last here on April 21st, 2003 for a meeting with La_Beba and fellow VT'ers. See the travelogue for pictures.
