I missed the first part, but what I saw was very charming. Picture the Bounty sailing by the Golden Gate... pretty nifty. Aterwards they showed the Brando film. I think the Bounty is now in St. Pete. Anyone over on the west coast (of Florida) should check it out. I believe they are doing day sails. Man, I wish I could go do that, but I have to make a quick trip to Delaware this week to see my in-laws.
