Hey there, I'm looking for a Beatles connection.

On February 14, 1964, The Beatles were in Miami Florida, and were taken
on a tour round Miami Harbour in a luxury houseboat provided by a
"Bernard Castro." 

The creator of a popular sofa bed and founder of a huge furniture chain
called Castro Convertibles was a "Bernard Castro" originally from New
York. 

The furniture maker Castro later had a well-known daughter who got her
college degree in Florida, and is still a prominent businesswoman in
that state.  I've attempted to contact her, but have not received a
response. 

Could The furniture creator be the man who supplied The Beatles
houseboat?
