Cal Cup Regatta, Modesto, California

[Ron Hill]

Anyone know what year the Third Annual Cal Cup would have been? This B Runabout on the cover is Bob Powell. Bob owned Signs and Designs in Modesto. He lettered all us boat racers boats. He was a great sign painter, he did Ernie Dawe's, Ted May's, Carl Meyer's and my boats, usually for free.

Bob Started making "Save the Mother Condor" shirts long before anyone was trying to Save the Mother Condor. He helped promote boat races at Bakersfield called "Save The Mother Condor Regatta."

Bob was a fun guy, he loved calling himself Terbor Llewop, Robert Powell spelled backward.
