Got a tour of the Halcyon by non-other than Felipe Cousteau, Sea of Cortez, 1985. The other campers howled with glee when I mentioned I was going in a panga to say hello. And the cow jumped over the moon, right?
The howls subsided when a rigid bottom zodiac brought me back four hours later.
My Dad had fought the navy until they agreed to a stem to stern overhaul of the Calypo in 1962. She was a wood boat with Detroit railroad locomotive engines. Falco and I became friends and Falco the prankster gave me a French gauloise cigarette after dinner, and I stumbled back to the mess as green as seaweed.
The whole crew was pounding on the table tears streaking down their cheeks. Felipe told me that story really made the rounds.
The Halcyion had mecchanical screw sails. The wind twists them which goes through a differential and turns the screw. The boat had problems getting too close to the nose and going in irons.
