New-style Fleet Review, SuIt., June 8.

Fleet Review Chairman William L. Robinson, Sr. has announced a new and innovative procedure for the 1980 Chicago Yacht Club Fleet Review.

Scheduled for noon and 3:00 P.M. Sunday, June 8, the Review will be structured to permit participating yachtsmen more time with their friends at the

Club, and less time circling outside the breakwater waiting to come in. At the

same time, the new procedure will permit all Club members and guests a more complete opportunity to inspect the participating yachts. Belmont fleet units will be inspected at 10:30 AM.

Sunday morning, everyone will dress ship, and remain at moorings. Brunch will be served at the Monroe Street Station at 12 noon, and all participating yacht owners and their aboard-ship guests will be able to attend this event.

Notably missing will be the hour or so of circling beyond the inner breakwater, waiting a turn to pass in review.

All yachts of the Review fleet will

remain at moorings until notified one by one, at which time they will depart their mooring, pass in review, and circle around the fairway back to the original mooring position. Thus each boat which participates in the Review

Here is the program:

will be under way only the 20 minutes to a half hour it takes to make the

Yacht owners who will be participating in the review will be assigned reserved space at the Club docks, beginning Saturday evening, June 7. On

circle.

Once back at the mooring, the party continues.

From 5:00 to 6:00 P.M. there will be

4

a cocktail hour (featuring complimen-

tary cocktails!) at the Monroe Street Station, followed by a cook-out on the patio. Dress for both the cocktail hour

and the cook-out will be informal.

Entertainment, too! Bill Bailey's banjo band will be there.

Bill Robinson and his committee have also planned a package cost for the entire event: Sunday brunch, "starters" at the cocktail reception, and the Sunday evening cook-out: all for $17.50 per person. A great bargain.

Participating yacht owners will also receive free dockage from Saturday night thru Sunday night.

Not only does this new plan save fuel costs, it also allows much more time for everyone to be together. So, whether

you plan to participate aboard your own vessel or aboard your own two feet, be sure to attend!

1980 Chicago Power Boat Navigation Schedule 1980 will again offer to the Power

yachtsman the opportunity to enjoy his prized possession as he has season after season. BUT some skippers have overlooked one facet ofboating that is both entertaining and offers a pride of accomplishment in being a good, safe skipper with professional skills' Each year navigation contests are sponsored by local yacht clubs and boating organizations. These events are open to members of recognized yacht clubs of Lake Michigan Yachting Association (LMYA), Chicago Power Squadron (CPS), United States Coast Guard Auxiliary (USCGA) etc.

Many hours of scheduling, rule mak-

ing and promotion is given so that skippers have available to them a program to improve their navigational skills.

Safety at sea is alwaYs number ONE on every list of yachting priorities.

Knowing the true sPeed of Your boat, having an accurate compensated compass and being able to steer a good course helps one to be a safe skipper.

All this can be learned by participating in navigation contests. Experienced skippers are more than willing to assist and, new contestants in the art

knowing your boat . . . is an art!

Boat Owners

Fight Back

Dept. of Energy planners are considering how to alter proposed rules for the standby federal energy conservation plans. DOE officials said they were surprised at the magnitude of the

public reaction, and the agency has received about 15,000 pieces of mail.

Officials are trying to put the restrictions in perspective, by telling reporters and others that such a plan wouldn't go into effect unless there is a severe supply interruption and only after state officials have submitted their own conservation plans to meet federal targets.

But at hearings here, as well as in

those around the nation, boaters &

their representatives argued the proposed restrictions would unduly discriminate against one industry. Ten Congressmen and one Senator were scheduled to testify. Rep. Toby Roth, R-WI, mentioned a company-Mercury Marine-in Fond du Lac, WI, had laid off hundreds of workers at 'Just the rumor" of the rule. Roth told CEL that he doesn't expect much boating if there is a further crunch, but is concerned over the aspects of the plan.

(Subsequently, the D.O.E. has reportedly withdrawn the proposed regulation regarding pleasure boats, but at the same time stated they are developing a similar regulation which would affect all kinds of reueational vehicles, including boats. Marine industry spokesmen feel this won't really happen, but that industy has spent a good deal of time with its head in the sand before, and it is ourfeeling that vigilance is appropriate. Certainly, testimony such as thot so ably prepared and presented by Chicago Yacht Club Past Commodore and present ludge Advocate Herman Van Mell is the sort of representation boat owners

need.

Sunday morning Waukegan Race 1978 - Picture it, The Race Committee is trying hurriedly to get the return from Waukegan underway. One of the recruited-on-the-spot R/C members looks up-"There's a big boat coming out of the harbor." Thinking it's NAMIS, I don't even look up. R/C member again - "Tom, that's a

really big boat. Isn't he going to interfere with the start?" The cannon fires and I look up for the first time to see the scene above!

Somehow we postponed the next start to let the "boat" out. To the R/ C member I said pointing - "That, that and that ateboats.That, pointing at the incredible bulk is a ship." -Thomas E. Lilleberg

A record number of applications for

summer. Alan Draht, our esteemed Fleet Secretary has informed the members that the Internationals will be held

off Belmont Harbor from August 13 through August 16. The visiting Yachtsmen, hopefully, will come from fleets

at Newport Beach, Indian Harbor, Bermuda, and the you'lls from New Orleans who trounced us roundly there last September.

The visitors will use the local boats, but their own sails.

AIan has warned the Fleet that everyone had better volunteer for committees before they're drafted.

The season should be a very good one, with such new contenders as the

Frank Hammerstroms, the Ric Curetons, #22, Frank Plimpton #96, Tim Desmond and Jim Eilers #141, and Bruce Uphaus#204.

entry into the 73rd running of the Chicago to Mackinac Race has been received by the Committee. The start of the Race is scheduled for 26 July at high noon.

The Port Huron Fleet has augmented

the entry requests in great numbers because of their race start a week earlier. Many other boats from fleets around Lake Michigan are requesting entries.

The race this year will be sailed by yachts competing in three divisions.

The regular IOR and LMYA divisions will sail for separate trophies, as will

the new (to Lake Michigan) MHS

division. The Measurement Handicap System, administered by the USYRU,

will be used to compute corrected times directly in this new division.

MHS will also be used as the base measurement rule in this year's traditional Bermuda Race. Startifg sequences and division compositions will be determined by the distribution of entry numbers in each division.

The Home Fleet has its usual dazzling array of yachts ready to go.
