September 5th 2005

Dear friends of D.A.,

Also this year I want to present you - with some pictures of my pretty cruiser longboat “My three cats”, my sea and my……grandchild Paolo two months old - kindest regards from Italy, precisely from a small point of Otranto Canal where the Adriatic Sea joins the Ionian Sea.

As I informed in the past, here it is given to enjoy gorgeous sea, clear air and absolute tranquillity: dear friends, I suggest you to visit this land, the Salento, I am sure that you will appreciate.

My boat, at Castro and environs, is the most admired, many people photograph it and ask me questions about its origin; naturally, it is a real pleasure to answer them and to talk about “Drascombe Association”.

Amicably,

Rocco Boccadamo
