Calling out a huge favor  . . .

 

Trustworthy bro needed to move precious cargo from Napa Valley Marina to a BART station on MLK Day, January 20th, 2014, approximately 1:00pm. :smt002

My wife Laura works on the Team O’Neill Catamaran in Santa Cruz Harbor. On January 20th, she and the crew will be sailing the 70ft boat from Santa Cruz to Napa Valley Marina for its annual Coast Guard inspection and haul out.
 Laura, and her  crewmate, Nikki Brooks (the internationally known surf photographer), need a ride from Napa Valley Marina to a BART station, where that they can make their way on BART to Caltrain in SF and then to San Jose, where they will be will picked up.

Unfortunately I do not get the day off.  We don't want them getting stranded, as the Napa marina is apparently kinda "boondocky". 

Is there anyone out there who can give these two sailors a ride to BART at around 1:00pm on Monday, January 20th?
willing to pay some gas money and beer, just name the brewery :smt003!

Gino went beyond the call...lunch too (you snuck off & paid  :smt044) But I knew when BigJim gave you his stamp of "good guy approval" that all would work out.

Hope you enjoy the wine.

The intrepid explorers are on the way home via Bart. 

Thanks a ton Gino!

 From Piscean's wife, Laura.

Thanks, Gino, for taking the time to drive me and Nikki to BART on Monday. We were tired, we were salty and hungry and you were a lovely gentleman and rescued us from being abandoned in the boondocks.
Thanks for being so accommodating, for taking us to lunch (when we wanted to treat you!)and for taking the time to do a favor for someone you didn't even know. When I tried to thank you, you said to do something nice for someone else. I will! Thanks again Gino!
