“Kind of like Bay To Breakers, but in the Bay, not in the road.”

“Kind of like Burning Man meets Water World.”

“Kind of like that boat racing espisode of The Little Rascals.”

Isaac Washington of the "Love Boat." He loved boats and he loved the open water and is TV's greatest bartender. He understood the effect that the open water had on people.

"Heed it well, ye Pantheists!"

Herman Melville Moby Dick

"Kind of like Gilligan's Island, but a lot more diverse, to perfectly reflect the ethnic diversity of southeast San Francisco. However, with no budget for outreach and no real organizational management, people who like fun & games in the water will most likely take part. EVERYONE is welcome from every community. The Bay is a public commons; don't let anyone take away access to the Bay."
