Kingfoot how right you are, I just dont play anymore but my DW enjoys it, I hear now they are selling electronic boards at $70.00 a session all you do is just sit there? it gives you all kinds of chances but it is just another scam to increase the profits. Good Post.CUDDER

The VeraCruz was a great time for me. I worked on board as a wine steward for about a year. 1976-1977 anyone out there remember those days post a reply it would be cool to chat.

The ship went all over the Caribbean during that time. 11 ports 14 days. Whew! busy for the folks working on the boat.

The parties back aft were the best!:D

Did you know a wine steward called Gordon Wallace he lived on Montego Bay?

My wife and I booked our first cruise on the Vera Cruz in 1978 it was thru Strand Cruises out of Toronto they advertised it as go bananas as they had a Vacation resort in Montego Bay in which you had a choice of a 1 week cruise and 1 week at the resort we opted for a 2 week nostalgic cruise thru the Caribean featuring the Peter Duchin orchestra and Helen Forest and There was a blind famous jazz pianist whos name escapes me, we had a blast I think we were the youngest couple on board at that time, it was just at the end of the hurricane season and it pretty rough a couple of days in fact one night the dining room was almost empty, I remember the main dance floor had large support poles and when the shiplisted you had to grab a pole. My pet name for it was the African Queen.
