Better no customers at all, than sick landlubbers bad-mouthing the California.So far as the passengers are concerned, Falkesgaard concedes “thereis blessed little to do aboard a boat.“About IMj or 2 hours into it, they begin to get turned off,” said Falkesgaard, who comes from a Danish family which has been involved with the sea since 1376.So his cruises are short and smooth — usually including a quarter-mile excursion out of Mission Bay into the Pacific. Groups can charter the boat and board in Mission Bay, then sailout into the Pacific and back into adjoining San Diego Bay and tie up at a restaurant for dinner.Catering by . . .BRIDES DAYGrand Opening Oct. 16th, 1976 224 Cloverleaf Plaza, Concord, N.C.788-2311
