PBR 210 to Make Debut at Camp Delta

Post by John Neuenburg » Fri Sep 19, 2014 6:13 am

We anticipate a first time event at the 2014 Fall Camp Delta. John Sorensen has just restored a Patrol Boat, River (PBR) and will be cruising it four hours to the meet from Napa on Thursday! Just like the old days when PBRs were stationed at Mare Island and trained in the Delta. John will be arriving in the 210 boat around mid-day and plans to depart Friday noon. In the morning he will call me with an ETA and I will post this on a sign at my Fall camp #297. Join us at the Rosa’s Restaurant deck to greet this welcome addition to our show!

Wow,
Please pass on a salute from myself to the 210 boat. Wish I could be there!

Got to see the PBR and I must say I wish I had taken more photos but for now this will give you an idea.

My friends and I took a ton of photos. I'll be getting around to working on them in a few weeks. In the mean time, here's one from one of my buddies.
