Has anyone read the article on Don Aronow? IN the "other
magazine The end of Thunderboat row. My question is I heard a movie is to be made about the King of Cigarette. Do you know how true this is? Very interesting story . Any info would be appreciate.
I read the artical and it was very interesting. I have heard rumors of a movie but that is it. I would go the Offshoreonly.com, there has been discussion on this topic there.
There are people that post over there that new him and worked with him, so they have some good info.
I am reading the book "Speed Kills" right now. It is about the murder of Aronow, and the happenings on N.E. 188th Street in Miami (Thunder Boat Row). So far it is very interesting. If you can find a copy it is a good book.
Another interesting item....
Brownie, from OSO is selling these medallions. If you do not own a boat built on the Row you can buy one mounted a plaque. He was friends with Don, and they are sequentally numbered.
The Row is just about gone now, so it is a cool item imo. Here is a picture.

Cig,
I don't think you can link from OSO...and even if we went there to view it, I think we need to be paying members, no?
I forgot about that. Damn, I don't know how else to post it.
If you right-click on it at OSO, save it to your computer, and email it to me as an attachment I will post it for you...my email is in my profile.
