Found this great article about Skipper Kent living in Moss Beach(aka known as Half Moon Bay)
Half Moon Bay Memories & El Granada Observer

Looking out back window to backyard (granite waterfall in progress) House Reef Point Road in Moss Landing, CA where Skipper Kent built and lived. It was bought by famous magician Channing Pollock.

"Because I am curious and loved tracking things down I found Skipper Kent, not in Moss Beach, but in Hawaii on the Big Island where he had moved.

By now I knew that Skipper Kent had been a famous restaurateur in San Francisco, second in popularity to Trader Vic’s. John and I flew to Hawaii and spent a day or two on the Big Island. While there we contacted Skipper Kent who kindly invited us to his home–but I forgot to bring my camera! I do recall the long landscaped uphill driveway to the house, reminiscent, in a way, of Moss Beach."
