The crew on our Selene 53, "Kasekuchen," during the FUBAR ODYSSEY 2007 included our son, Chris, and our friend Ron Weed, a Hollywood producer who'll be working on the live telecast of "The 65th Annual Golden Globes Awards," scheduled to air on NBC on January 13, 2008. This year during "The 65th Annual Golden Globes Awards," Steven Spielberg will received the Cecil B. DeMille Award for his "outstanding contribution to the entertainment field."When he returned home after the rally, Ron sent out an e-mail to some of his friends, a portion of which we'd like to share with you here:
Just a quick note to let you know that I am now home from the "FUBAR" Fleet Underway to Baja Rally on one of the fifty one boat fleet that made the trip from San Diego to La Paz from Nov 7 thru Nov 19, 2007. I gratefully crewed for my friends, Bob and Cheryl Klein on their 60' Selene Ocean Trawler, "Kasekuchen", German for Cheesecake. We stopped at Ensenada, Turtle Bay, Santa Maria, Magdalena Bay, San Jose Del Cabo, Muertos Bay and La Paz.
Some day passages, some overnight passages up to 33 continuous hours underway. Kasekuchen is well equipped with radars, electronic navigation systems and of course has all or most of the systems that make her a home in every sense on the water. I attached an excerpt from my daily log which kind of expresses my sentiments with a few pictures.
