"For those who heard Belvedere's Tom Perkins say on KQED's Forum that he might bring his 289-ft Dyna-Rig Maltese Falcon to the Bay in May, we've got a clarification.

" 'I don't know yet whether Falcon will make the trip to the Bay,' Perkins wrote Latitude, 'as it all depends on the completion date for the submarine that Hawkes Ocean Technology of Richmond is building for us.' . . . "
