The cruise and a launch party at a restaurant in San Pedro are sponsored by the Royal classes of 1975 and 1976.

``It's a family-type thing,'' said Diana Prickett, who graduated in the Royal class of 1975. ``There are married couples, single people. We've even got people who went to Simi Valley High School who are going.''

``It's a great, great time. It's really a reunion of people who grew up in Simi Valley,'' said Prickett, who went on a Royal High School reunion High School Reunion

``When we did this cruise in July 2000 we had about 150. We had a great time, and a lot of people heard about it and wanted to get on board. People are flying in from out of state.''

``At a normal reunion you only have about four hours,'' she said. ``On something like this you get to spend a lot more time, finding out a lot more about people. It's much more intimate and more relaxing. You rekindle re·kin·dle
