You are a teenager at the 1963 Opening Day Boat Parade in Seattle with your two friends.  As a trio, you are being paid to sing the songs of the day on a yacht and you show up for the job in your Sande Ace!  That is exactly what Ned and his friends, Dick Durant and Dave Hammond, are doing in the photos below.
