Hi Pete --

Maybe Barbara Paltiel, an old Clipper hand, can weigh in on this but I am certain that Summer 87 was not the first version. I remember writing a little application in Clipper in late 84 or early 85 and I could *swear* that the version was Spring 84.....I could be wrong.

Remember what Samuel Eliot Morison wrote about its namesake ( The Oxford History of the American People, ch. 36 ) "These Clipper ships of the early 1850's were built of wood in shipyards from Rockland to Baltimore. These architects, like poets who transmute nature's message into song, obeyed what wind and wave taught them, to create the noblest of all sailing vessels, and the most beautiful creations of man in America."
