Re: Venice Boating

Make sure to post some pictures when you get home.

There should be a couple of DVD's waiting your arrival home tomorrow.

Have a safe trip.

Re: Venice Boating

Do you believe the 1979 Worlds was there instead of Key West?

Yes! Betty Cook won it all that year with John Connor throttling. Howard Quam didn't want to pay the expense of sending "FlapJack" over there, so he throttled the Benihana cat with Rocki Aoki driving. They hit some drift wood and filled up their water intakes. I think they took fourth.

Re: Venice Boating

klaw, did you take a water taxi ride? Best way to see that incredible city. Don't bother with ground transportation to or from the airport. The water taxi is well worth a few extra bucks!
