~~~ that I don't remember which one is which without having to go to Mark's work in order to figure it all out.
Some of these tugs used to be on a shallow creek making it out to the Atlantic ocean while others were on the Gulf, which took forever to get out to International waters.
One or two of these boats used to leave port about 1:30 am... One further south was all Spanish-speaking, while another was all female staff... And the best part, early on; many were British dealers...
Three of my favorite used to be Winston Cruise Line, Sterling out on the Cape... and the Palm Beach Princess in Riviera Beach.
There was one boat in either Broward or Dade where there were four dealers who actually worked in Habana, in the day... and the one with the best entertainment was a tug out of Daytona area... and last but not least, was the best Greek food ever served outside of Brooklyn, in Tarpon Springs. The women used to carry on trays of homemade dishes just minutes before boarding... set everything up and leave the boat while being taken care of by many players as they walked off.
