Greetings gang!!
Happy New year to all the Proafile.com readers.
Tonight I cut up a bunch of slips of paper and I wrote the names of all the folks that put their name “in the hat” for the framed set of CHEERS design drawings.
To have a fair drawing I had my lady Barb draw from an ice bucket with the small slips of paper in it. The ice bucket in question is the ice bucket that the Ida Lewis Yacht Club gave to Tom Follett and CHEERS as the 1st American yacht to finish the 1968 OSTAR race. I thought the ice bucket was appropriate.
So, here is the winner of this drawing. Drumroll please….
1) Milton “Skip” Johnson
If “Skip” can’t except/afford the shipping the runners up are….
2) Russell Brown
3) Lumanen = Chris
So, “Skip” please private message me on Proafile.com about doing the shipping of these framed drawings. Thank you to everyone for showing interet in CHEERS.
Cheers,
Halsted Morris
Congratulations, Skip!
Halsted, thanks for doing this. I’m so pleased you are taking the time to find a new home for your CHEERS memorabilia, I know that all of us who love and admire this groundbreaking yacht appreciate your efforts.

I’ll soon be shipping the orgional barometer and some charts that Tom used to the French museum where CHEERS is. I feel that these items should be with CHEERS.
Cheers,
Halsted
Thanks for your generosity with your family’s remarkable history, Halsted. It’s much appreciated!
Chris
I echo what Chris said, Halsted. Congratulations Skip. let me know if you get tired of looking at it.
Russell
Based on the warm fuzzies I get from looking at the art photo postcard Halsted was so generous with, you are going to have a long wait.
Skip
Maybe you could e-mail me a picture of it…
True that…plus I’ll post it here.
