Trophy Re-Presented
Last month, we showed you the new SSS TransPac Overall First Place trophy. Last Sunday, a small group hosted by Stan and Sally Honey presented the beautiful new trophy to its first recipient, Skip Allan, whose Wildflower won the 2008 Singlehanded TransPac.
New trophy rule: the winner of the MUST blow the conch shell, and with gusto. Skip passed the test. © 2009 Rich Hudnut, Jr.
