Wonderful movie. I recognized 5-yr old Larry Steimle with the sail boat trophy, the dug-out canoe (now in a museum…without the dragon’s head), and I think the wooden dingy and a canvass canoe. Catalina Island didn’t appear to change much from ’41 to ’82 when I visited. Wish I was near the water!

Amazing! I wish we could have gone there. Sometime we need to go out to Catalina Island.
Fun to watch and remember many good times at Balboa.
What a great video. Thank you so much for preserving and making that available. I now understand where my love of the ocean comes from!
Wow! What a busy bay! This was fun 🙂 Thanks.
Good days remembered.

Interesting Peter that your entry was made on the very day that Johnny Sheffield died. He attended Sail Ho! Balboa and played the son of Tarzan in 8 movies starting in 1939.
