Sailing on Zaca!

12 Dec

Ahoy All Good Flynnmates

Yesterday morning I had the zensational pleasure of swilling my first cup of “Zaca Tea”. Sent to me by a good friend and preeminent Flynnian scholar, I zealously recommend to all this elegant, inspiring and energizing blend of “super-teas”.

Here’s my very first Zaca, sailing over the Florida Intracoastal. Flynn himself cruised these very waters on various voyages through South Florida. One of his favorite places to hide from Lili & JW was in an oceanfront front home,two miles ahead (south) of this location, across from the Cloisters of Boca Raton.

You feel you get into scenarios to dive.

You’ll be there: among movie stars and sailors of the 6th US Fleet, under the heavy snowfall that hit Europe in 1956, whooping international politics of the 50s and the slow recovery of the Spanish Civil War, local sophisticated drinks and Mallorca concert halls that turned the island into a paradise that attracted leading figures from the international art scene.

6) There is romance, intrigue and eroticism.
History is full of passion with several amazing love frames.

You will laugh, cry, be angry with you the characters will fight to help them overcome obstacles, you will love …

You feel close to the characters.

7) This novel is also a story of adventure and Mediterranean mysteries:

Was damn boat Errol Flynn? Few sailboats in the world are surrounded by mystery and legend over the Zaca, the last yacht Errol Flynn, and his last home.

Overcoming obstacles will teach us a great lesson of life and show us that, if you want to achieve your dreams, you must fight for them. A novel about the importance of believing in one’s dreams and the loss of innocence until the end.

After these 7 reasons, are you ready to read Ulysses Ecuador?

Tim Reid, on Jack Marino’s Radio Show!

27 Oct

From the Errol Flynn Mailbag!

Dave can you post this or mention TIM REID will be on my show TONIGHT on the Errol Flynn Blog. Thank you old boy

 

SUNDAY, Oct 26, 2014 at 7PM PST & 10PM EST Jack Marino Warriorfilmmaker Show on www.latalkradio.com… on Channel 2

My Guest is Tim Reid, born & raised a Flynn Fan in an predominantly Irish seaside neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York. (Only a very short distance from where Harry Eiler grew up, before he made it big and bought Flynn’s place on Navy Island!)

Flynn was King in our neighborhood, who all the girls swooned over, and all the boys wanted to be. Dad & Mom were huge Flynn fans, too, and much like our neighborhood’s Errol & Olivia – Dad being very highly intelligent and athletically gifted, Mom being extraordinarily gorgeous and fun.

Grew up watching Flynn on late night and weekend TV. Captain Blood, Charge of the Light Brigade, Robin Hood, Sea Hawk, Gentleman Jim, They Died With Their Boots On. What boy wouldn’t want to be Flynn?! Fighting the good fight so valiantly AND winning the hearts of all the best looking girls, too! What boy wouldn’t want to be anyone but Errol Flynn!?!

Years later, in the early Eighties, when I moved to San Diego, I became significantly reacquainted with Flynn. Heard stories from sailors & old timers who knew many of his incredible exploits and adventures in San Diego, Old Tijuana, Rosarito, and Ensenada. That led me to read the still astonishing Wicked, Wicked Ways – like nothing I’d ever read before. Truly Flynntastic.

Inspired by all of that, I wrote “In Like Flynn”, which I used last year as the musical track in a video tribute to the 75th Anniversary of Robin Hood.

“In Like Flynn” – 75th Anniversary of “The Advent…:youtu.be/dILYf6IOH5g…

Working on the In Like Flynn video, I had the tremendous pleasure and good fortune to meet the great David DeWitt, founder of the Errol Flynn Blog. That has opened up a who new world for me, allowing me to learn from and communicate with preminent Flynn fans around the globe.

Based on these wonderful opportunites, and drawing on my experience as a commemorative historian, I am helping to plan and celebrate year-long, around-the-world tributes to Errol’s two greatest pirate films – Captain Blood & The Sea Hawk, which, in 2015, will be in their 80th & 75th anniversary years.
