Sorry badbobby, it was a boat niggers bar. Everyone was welcome. Most all were ocean going sailboat racers and locals. We did have our share of personalities as the owners of said boats were pretty well known. Ted Turner for one. He was the most hard driven skipper I ever raced for as well as the scariest. He was driven and would put the boat and crew as well as himself thru almost impossible situations. I was totally burned out by 26, both physically and mentally. You are right in that it wasn't a low class bar but it wasn't Marmadukes. In the 70's, Annapolis was a great place to live. We had Sam's, a hole in the wall on the water front where you could drink beer outside, standing only both inside and out as the entire interior consisted of cases of beer stacked one on top of another., and rub elbows with Washington Pols., local pols and celebs. Sam was an old Jew and his only help was an old black man. Man, what I wouldn't give to experience that again. To be young, virile, able to leap buildings in a single bound. Hell, we were Super men and Women. Thanks for the memories Bobby. Mike
