Potential vendor could receive up to $250,000 from City Hall to transport boaters from moorings.

By Parimal M. Rohit AVALON — As much as $250,000 could be set aside to transport Avalon’s boaters to and from their moorings as Catalina Island’s only City Council voted Nov. 15 to issue a Request for Proposals (RFP) for shoreboat service.

The RFP could be issued at some point this month, according to Avalon City Manager David Jinkens. Island Enterprises, which had most recently operated the shoreboat service, will be allowed to respond to the RFP. This is Avalon’s second attempt to solicit RFP responses. City officials expect a more competitive bidding process the second time around. Only one vendor – Island Enterprises – responded to the first proposal request.

The City Council issued its first RFP in March. “[City] staff was directed to prepare a new RFP and place it out to bid as rapidly as possible. The hope is to have the new RFP completed and circulated in December,” Jinkens told The Log after the Nov. 15 City Council meeting.

Council members hoped a shoreboat service would continue to be

offered to boaters without interruption, even if the city must subsidize the offering.

“The City Council wants to ensure that a high quality service is maintained for the best price possible,” Jinkens said. “The City Council recognizes the value of shoreboat services being available to our many visitors, and we appreciate and value of boating.”

Avalon is willing to subsidize the service up to $250,000, meaning the transport of boaters from their moorings to land would be a public-privatepartnership activity.

Harbormaster Brian Bray told council members the local economy is dependent on shoreboat service.

Failure to offer the service would require all boaters visiting Avalon to have a dinghy, which could cause local infrastructure to be overwhelmed.

“I feel the shoreboat service is an integral part of Avalon Harbor and a vital necessity to vessels who are visiting Avalon,” Bray said, adding the service helps boaters make valuable contributions to the city’s economy.

“If a shoreboat service did not exist, visitors would need to bring a dinghy with them to get ashore, and that’s not always practical or affordable.”

Bray added the dinghy docks suffer from overcrowding. Discontinuing shoreboat service would only strain the dinghy docks even more and poten-

City subsidy might save Avalon shoreboat service

tially cause harm to the local economy.

City Hall taking over the service is not necessarily a practical solution either, according to Bray. For example the city of Avalon would have to purchase three new vessels to operate the shoreboat service.

Island Enterprises offered to sell its three-vessel fleet to the city for $190,000 each; however the vessels were built in 1967, 1969 and 1970, respectively.

“I just don’t think that would be wise to be a 50-year-old boat for that kind of money,” Bray said.

Avalon’s shoreboat service has been

in jeopardy since Island Enterprises claimed it struggled to sustain the business operation. Island Enterprises told City Hall it suffered a $600,000 shortfall offering the service.

Company representatives hoped Avalon would subsidize the shortfall but council members and city staff balked at the request.

The company claimed it suffered a shortfall after it lost out on a cruise ship tender contract in 2014; perhaps the contract, if awarded, could have provided Island Enterprises with enough revenue to offset costs associated with the shoreboat service.

Inventive Cubans hunt expensive fish using inflated condoms

By Andrea Rodriguez Associated Press HAVANA (AP) — Juan Luis Rosello sat for three hours on the Malecon as the wind blew in from the Florida Straits, pushing the waves hard against the seawall of Havana’s coastal boulevard.

As darkness settled and the wind switched direction, Rosello pulled four condoms from a satchel and began to blow them up. When the contraceptives were the size of balloons, the 47-year-old cafeteria worker tied them together by their ends, attached them to the end of a baited fishing line and set them floating on the tide until they reached the end of his 750-foot line.

NEWS BRIEFS NATION/world Warning for boaters to look out for migrating manatees in Florida TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — Manatees are on the move looking for warmer waters for the winter. State officials are warning boaters that the whiskered marine mammals can pose a hazard.

The Tallahassee Democrat reports that seasonal protection zones for manatees are in effect as of Nov. 15. So far, there have been 91 reported manatee deaths this year from boat strikes, and officials

After six decades under U.S. embargo and Sovietinspired central planning, Cubans have become masters at finding ingenious solutions with extremely limited resources. Few are as creative as what Havana’s fishermen call “balloon fishing,” a technique employing a couple of cents worth of governmentsubsidized condoms to pull fish worth an average month’s salary from the ocean.

On any given night in Havana, dozens of men can be found “balloon fishing” along the Havana seawall, using their homemade floats to carry their lines as far as 900 feet into the coastal waters.

“No one can cast the line that far by hand,” said Ivan

Muno, 56, who fished alongside Rosello.

For four more hours, he sat silently as the dark sea pounded the rocks below the seawall, algae flashing green in the waves beneath an enormous creamy moon, the sounds of the city muffled by the wind and water. By midnight, he was heading home without a catch, but planning to return soon.

“This is the most effective way to fish,” Rosello said.

“Someone got this great idea and I can be here all night with the balloons out.”

For Cubans, taking advantage of one of their greatest resources remains a challenge.

“Balloon fishing” is cheaper, less risky and increasingly popular.

“There’s no point in getting a 3,000-peso ($120) fine and your gear confiscated,” said Leandro 2C Casas, a self-employed DARK conalong struction worker fishingBKGND the Malecon.

It’s not clear exactly when the practice was adopted, but according to local fishermen’s BW lore, the inventor of the balloon technique in Cuba saw a video of South Africans fishing using kites and got the idea for using inflated condoms.

The highly subsidized condoms cost less than one cent each. Ordinary party balloons sell for many times that price.

It’s illegal to sell fish without a license in Cuba, and the balloon fisherman all said they are simply trying to feed their families.

The state says efforts to protect the watery beasts have helped. Aerial counts by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission show numbers are up around the state.

However, counts by boat have shown a downturn in numbers in Wakulla Springs State Park.

Boaters who slow down have contributed to the animals› wellbeing, according to Carol Knox of Fish and Wildlife Conservation.

Achievement in the Innovative On Board Design Solution category. The Submersible Hatch system, designed by the Ferretti Group, was recognized as best in category.

The Submersicle Hatch system is included in the new Ferretti Yachts 850. The system allows the stern garage door to open and tilt down. Once the door is over the platform, it automatically aligns and then lowers diagonally under the water together with the central part of the platform. In this way, the garage is flooded to launch the tender and jet-ski. The platform can then be submerged to various depths, allowing guests to prepare for sea activities or simply relax in the water.

This successful solution not

only enhances the owners’ enjoyment of their boats but presents outstanding engineering and design elements. It has been registered as a patent of the Ferretti Group and will be featured on future models, starting with the new Riva 100’ Corsaro.

The ceremony took place in Amsterdam during the Marine Equipment Trade Show.

This event is organized by METSTRADE and International Boating Industry magazine.

Port of San Diego hosts open house for Shelter Island Boat Launch Ramp What Happened: The Port of San Diego hosted a 90-minute open house for boaters and the general public at its Downtown San Diego headquarters Nov. 17 to discuss planned renovations of the Shelter Island Boat Launch Ramp.

Design renderings and exhibits were on display for the public to view, while members of the project team answered questions about the boat launch ramp’s planned upgrade.

Port officials are planning to replace the existing 10-lane boat launch ramp with an updated venue featuring a new breakwater wall, public walking platforms and viewing areas. Other upgrades, according to announced plans, will be made to the gangway, docks, signage, lighting, restrooms and kayak launch.

Parimal M. Rohit photo

What’s On Tap: Construction is expected to start in early 2017 and be completed within 10 months, according to port officials. The boat launch ramp would be temporarily closed during construction.

About 600 square feet of eelgrass will be planted inside the basin as part of the project’s environmental mitigation.

More information about the Shelter Island Boat Launch Facility Improvements Project is available at portofsandiego.org/ sibl.

The land adjacent to Chula Vista Harbor will undergo a site preparation for the Bayfront project.

Chula Vista Bayfront planning adjust for site preparation What Happened: A resolution shifting Chula Vista Bayfront’s planning process from design phase to site preparation was approved Nov. 8 by the Port of San Diego’s Board of Port Commissioners.

Port staff stated the resolution and shift would help address how about 700,000 cubic yards of fill, which would be used to raise existing elevations at the planned redevelopment site, would be imported to the Chula Vista Bayfront. Some of the fill would be placed in the harbor district.

“Raising existing elevations of the

What’s On Tap: The port district will spend $200,000 to have fill materials imported from other construction projects to the Chula Vista Bayfront project site. Fill materials could come from the National City Marine Terminal or Imperial Beach’s Pond 20, among other locations.

site will provide more desirable building pads, improve drainage and create a more resilient project in the face of predicted sea level rise,” port district staff stated.

Purchasing and placing 700,000 cubic yards of fill could cost the port district between $15 million and $25 million, though officials said fill material could be obtained from other construction sites.

Santa Barbara Harbor could have a new vendor for its marine mammal rescue program.

Santa Barbara recommends terminating marine mammal rescue agreement What Happened: Santa Barbara Waterfront Department’s license agreement with the American Cetacean Society (Santa Barbara Chapter) is on track to be terminated Nov. 17, with the city’s Harbor Commission recommending the contract termination and authorizing the beginning of lease discussions with Channel Islands Marine Wildlife Institute to provide marine wildlife rescue and rehabilitation services.

The city had a relationship and license agreement with Peter Howorth to operate the Marine Mammal Center. Howorth held a federal permit from 1985 to 2015 to offer rescue and rehabilitation services for marine mammals. Channel Islands Marine Wildlife Institute is now the only federally permitted organization to offer marine mammal rescue and rehabilitation services in Santa Barbara and Ventura counties.

“Marine mammals are susceptible to diseases such as domoic acid poisoning. They can be injured by predators or entangled in fishing lines or nets. Their population has increased dramatically over the past 20 years, and they can become a nuisance when they colonize docks, boats, swim steps, launch ramps and other areas,” city staff stated. “Harbors currently having serious problems with nuisance marine mammals include San Francisco, Monterey, Channel Islands, Dana Point, and others.”

What’s On Tap: Channel Islands Marina and Wildlife Institute will take the lead on rescuing and rehabilitating marine mammals along California’s south central coast.

Howarth and the city would likely negotiate a fair market value for the barge used for rescues.

The Harbor Commission’s recommendation moves forward to the City Council.

“This place reminds me of Balboa Park because it is so clean, the trees are beautiful and everything is so well maintained...you can tell they really take pride in it.”

Letters/Online Comments Opening up a dialogue about opening up docks to tie up boats Dear “Log”, I relocated to San Diego about a year ago from Michigan, and before that, Fort Lauderdale. As both a maritime professional and as a lifelong boater, I came here expecting to use my center console boat as I had in other places: going to dinner, running errands, and general transport. I’ve always called it my “pickup truck.” Here in San Diego, that’s effectively impossible. There are only a few places in the Bay where I can tie up: Joe’s Crab Shack, Coronado’s Town Dock, and Bali Hai. Coming from Fort Lauderdale, it’s frustrating. There, I had a selection of hundreds of restaurants and businesses to choose from. The same is true in Muskegon, Long Island, Miami, Milwaukee, Seattle, Newport Beach and many others.

All of these cities reap great benefits from the boat traffic. Water taxis carry people from place to place, relieving traffic and parking pressure. Families stop in for lunch. Restaurants fill their docks with well-heeled boaters looking to spend money.

I walk down the Embarcadero’s miles of empty

seawall and wonder how much money San Diego is leaving on the table by not accommodating boaters who would like to tie up and experience the Gaslamp, Seaport Village, Harbor Island, Shelter Island, and particularly Liberty Station.

When I ask around the community, I encounter a frustration that’s similar to mine. I also hear answers like, “The permitting process is too tough”.

The purpose of this letter is to start a dialog. There has to be a way.

I have a few suggestions to get the conversation going: -How about metered pay parking for boats, both along the Embarcadero and in the turning basin next to the Midway? This should do a lot to offset costs. It’s a proven model in the parking industry, and all of the technology already exists.

-Liberty Station has a lot of businesses that struggle for traffic. There’s room along their canal to tie up an infinite numbers of dinghies, and it has very quick boat access from both Shelter and Harbor Island, home to thousands of boats in slips. I know that if I could boat to Liberty, I

Resolving an unsatisfied lien at the eleventh hour before close of sale

By David Weil, Esq.

Q

I am a yacht broker in California, and a problem with a yacht’s title surfaced just before the close of a sale. The abstract of title reflected a $5,000.00 unsatisfied lien. The seller claims that the lien was asserted in bad faith by a mechanic who worked on the boat several years ago, and he refuses to pay the mechanic. The buyer, on the other hand, does not want to buy a boat with a lien recorded against the title. The purchase agreement requires the seller to deliver the boat free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, but since the seller believes that the lien is not valid he won’t do anything about it. What are the respective legal positions of the parties in a case like this? And, as their yacht broker, is there anything I can do to facilitate the closing?

Our reader discovered a Notice of Claim of Lien by reviewing the Abstract of Title for the yacht.

We need to take a quick look at how the Abstract works before we review our reader’s case.

A Coast Guard Abstract of

A

Title is a record of all of the documents submitted to the Coast Guard and accepted for recording for a particular boat. An Abstract is available for all Coast Guard documented vessels, either through a vessel documentation service or directly from the Coast Guard’s National Vessel Documentation Center (www. uscg.mil/hq/cg5/nvdc/).

As we have discussed in this column many times, the recording of a lien with the Coast Guard is optional (technically the recorded document referred to as a “Notice of Claim of Lien”).

When the Coast Guard accepts a lien for recording, they take no position on whether the lien is actually a valid claim against the boat. As such, a valid lien may not be listed on the Abstract, and a claim that is listed may not be a valid lien. We should note that this treatment is different for a mortgage, which in fact must be recorded to be valid.

In our reader’s case, the validity of a Notice of Claim of Lien is disputed by the current owner of the boat, and

the buyer wants the problem cleared up before he buys the boat. Like most yacht purchase contracts, the agreement in this case requires the current owner of the yacht to deliver the boat free and clear of all liens and encumbrances.

The boat owner has several options. He should first contact the mechanic and determine whether a compromise may be possible. If that fails, he may need to sue the mechanic. If the judge agrees that the lien is invalid, he may issue a court order instructing the Coast Guard to remove the claim from the yacht’s title history.

The problem here is the timing. The claim was discovered by the broker at the eleventh hour, when the deal is about to close. A lawsuit, or even a negotiated compromise, will take time, which will probably cause the buyer to walk away from the deal. For this reason, we always recommend that our yacht broker clients order an Abstract of Title from the Coast Guard when they first accept a listSee attorney page 12

FAST FACTS: Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade

By Parimal M. Rohit The Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade will celebrate its 108th birthday when it kicks off Dec. 14. The first set of lighted boats hit Newport Harbor on July 4, 1908 – when the Chicago Cubs were defending World Series champions. Of course the Cubs went on to defend its championship a few months later, but the Loveable Losers would not win a baseball title again for the rest of the century.

This year’s boat parade marks only the second time in its history it would coincide with a Cubs championship. The Cubbies ended its 108-year championship drought in early November, about six weeks ahead of the Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade.

Much has changed since 1908. The boat parade itself switched from a summer event to a major highlight of the Christmas season. Newport Beach grew from 445 residents in 1910 to about 87,000 today. Area codes did not come into existence until the 1950s. Newport Beach was initially assigned 213 (along with the rest of the rest of the Los Angeles region); 714 and 949 were assigned much later. The estimated 4,500 vessels in Newport Beach probably dwarves the number of boats sailing the central Orange County harbor in 1908.

Does federal recreational economy bill benefit boaters?

REC Act clears House of Representatives, could head to White House if parallel Senate bill passes.

By Parimal M. Rohit WASHINGTON, D.C. — A bill proposing to assess the impact of outdoor recreational activities on job creation and consumer spending recently earned enough votes to get out of the House of Representatives. Should this and a parallel bill in the Senate ultimately be signed into law by the president, legislators hope the information collected by the assessment could result in additional resources made available for outdoor activities such as recreational boating.

The Recreational Economic Contributions (REC) Act (H.R. 4665) would require the federal government to measure how outdoor activities benefit jobs and the economy. It could be one of the last bills ever signed into law

by Pres. Barack Obama.

Legislators are calling for a twoyear analysis of recreational economic activity, the results of which could, down the line, help the craft policies benefiting recreational boating and other outdoor activities.

“The study will help document the full value and contributions of outdoor recreation to the American economy and present detailed and defensible data to inform decision making, improving governance and long-term management of public lands and waters,” U.S. Department of Interior staff stated about the two-year analysis.

Reps. Don Beyer (D-Virginia), Dave Reichert (R-Washington), Peter Welch (D-Vermont) and Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-Washington) introduced the REC Act in the House.

Bayer said the legislation would allow the federal government to obtain valuable information. The federal government would collect statistical data on compensation, employment, production and other factors in an attempt

to determine the economic impact of recreational activities.

“This data is critical to crafting sound environmental and recreational policies that support the $646 billion outdoor economy,” Beyer said.

The National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA) said the REC Act would quantify “the true size of the outdoor economy, including recreational boating.”

“The REC Act directs the Secretary of Commerce, through the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), to ‘conduct an assessment and analysis of the outdoor recreation economy of the United States,’” NMMA staff said in a published statement. “A temporary pilot program was enacted by the Secretary of the Interior in April, so Congress’s action was needed to make sure that the outdoor economy – and its estimated 6 million jobs and $646 billion in economic activity – receives official government recognition for years to come.”

In September the Outdoor Industry

Association (OIA) published its 2016 “Outdoor Participation Report” and found about 142 million Americans – roughly 48 percent of the national population – engaged in some form of recreational activity last year. About 909,000 people participated in sailing activities and more than 2.2 million people dropped a fishing line into the water during the 2015 calendar year, according to the OIA report.

Kayak fishing drew the fewest number of participants in 2015 – about 295,000 people hopped aboard a kayak to catch fish.

OIA staff called the passage of the REC Act in the House of Representatives “a major legislative victory.”

“The $646 billion outdoor recreation economy—and the 6.1 million jobs it supports—is a major economic driver in communities across the United States and should be counted just like any other major industry,” OIA Executive Director Amy Roberts said.

Legislative efforts to analyze the economic impact of outdoor recreational activity coincided with the introduction of a pilot program by Interior Secretary Sally Jewell to analyze the role of the outdoor industry in our economy.

“By producing credible data on the tangible economic benefits of public lands, we can help the public and Members of Congress better understand the benefits of investing in them,” Jewell said when she introduced the initiative during a talk at the National Geographic in April.

Take Action Can recreational boating benefit from the REC Act? Will the federal government be able to impartially analyze economic data to determine the true value of outdoor activities such as boating and fishing?

These questions and plenty more should be directed to legislators in the House and Senate. There is still time to share your support or concerns about the REC Act. Here are a few people you can reach out to:

Coastal Commission approves Ventura County’s plan to redevelop Channel Islands Harbor.

UKIAH — The California Coastal Commission returned service in the bureaucratic ping-pong between the quasijudicial state agency and local government entity by validating Ventura County’s acceptance of the commission’s certification and suggested modifications of the proposed Channel Islands Harbor Public Works Plan (PWP) on Oct. 6.

Ventura County is looking to amend its PWP to redevelop Casa Sirena Hotel and the adjacent Channel Islands Harbor area.

Commissioners approved the PWP amendment and suggested three modifications at their July meetings in San Diego.

On Aug. 2 the Ventura County Board of Supervisors accepted the commission’s suggestions and agreed to move forward with the PWP plan as amended.

The county’s acceptance of the commission’s modified PWP returned to the quasijudicial agency on Oct. 6, with commissioners unanimously approving the Board of Supervisors’ action.

In July the Coastal Commission essentially opened the door to allow Ventura County to increase building heights as part of the planned redevelopment of Casa Sirena Hotel and other portions of the Channel Islands Harbor waterfront.

The recent spate of commission and county approvals also set the tone for the planned redevelopment to include affordable hotel options.

Height restrictions in the planned

Lo

area of redevelopment could be adjusted to 55 feet, up from 25 feet.

The PWP would also allow up to 300 hotel rooms to be built on the waterfront. A new hotel built on the Casa Sirena Hotel site could feature between 200 and 210 rooms, according to county officials. Casa Sirena Hotel was home to 184 rooms.

Ventura County’s plan to redevelop the Channel Islands Harbor area, as with many other redevelopment proposals, has met with quite a bit of local opposition. Most residents said a redeveloped Channel Islands Harbor would result in gridlock traffic and diminished enjoyment of the surrounding area if taller buildings were built.

Conversely portions of the Channel Islands are in a visual state of disrepair. Casa Sirena Hotel is abandoned and marquee signs at nearby Harbor Landing Village are dilapidated or falling apart.

Commission staff stated a renovated hotel and harbor area would result in greater public access to the waterfront and a more efficient footprint.

Casa Sirena Hotel had opened in 1972 but fell into a state of disrepair at the turn of the century. The hotel permanently closed in 2009; Ventura County assumed ownership of the hotel’s building in 2014.

County officials, prior to assuming ownership of the hotel in 2014, initiated plans to redevelop Casa Sirena and the surrounding waterfront property in 2008. However plans fell apart due to that year’s financial crisis.

The original Channel Islands Harbor PWP was certified in September 1986. It was amended in March 2016 to allow for more hotel rooms, increased building heights and Casa Sirena Hotel to be replaced.

Commissioners held their two-day October meetings at the Ukiah Valley Conference Center in Ukiah.

Port of San Diego hopes Blue Economy could help reduce copper pollution An incubator plan might boost district’s efforts to improve San Diego Bay’s water quality.

By Parimal M. Rohit SAN DIEGO — Enacting a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) policy might not be the only way to reduce copper levels in San Diego Bay – or any other harbor for that matter.

The Port of San Diego, angling to be on the cutting edge of environmental policy, is moving forward with its efforts to reduce copper pollution in the harbor by relying upon blue tech innovation.

Potential breakthroughs in developing copper reduction technology and non-copper boat bottom paints could be fostered by the port district’s incubator plan. The plan, consistent with Blue Economy principles, would direct investments into the creation, development and initial sustainability of environmentally friendly policies.

Port district staff hopes to achieve its vision by combining investments in sustainability projects with copper reduction technology.

“There are many blue tech companies exploring technologies to effectively remediate contaminants in marine waters and sediments. As

a result, some of these efforts have a direct co-benefit to the district’s environmental programs,” port district staff stated. “[We] recently began exploring ways in which blue tech could help reduce pollution in San Diego Bay.” San Diego has been addressing copper pollution in its harbor since 2005, when the Regional Water Quality Control Board enacted a TMDL policy.

Port officials are required to achieve a 76 percent reduction in copper levels at Shelter Island Yacht Basin by 2022.

About 98 percent of copper loading at Shelter Island Yacht Basin came from antifouling paints on recreational boats, according to port district staff.

A five-step plan was incorporated to address copper pollution at Shelter Island: test and research alternatives; develop policy or legislation supporting copper remediation; educate and reach out to boaters about alternatives; and, monitor/assess data to see what does or does not work.

The port district, however, expressed interest in pursuing other methods to reduce copper pollution in San Diego Bay. Port officials issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) in March 2016 to find “new or innovative approaches that either reduce input of copper to the bay or remove existing copper.”

“The goal of the RFP was to provide

SEABRIDGE MARINA The Central Coast’s Best Kept Secret

The San Diego Bay has been looking at ways to reduce copper pollution in the harbor for over 10 years.

research and development funds that promote the advancement or improvement of environmentally sustainable business practices and/or technologies that reduce copper and improve water quality,” port district staff stated.

Seven proposals were submitted.

Suggested copper remediation techniques included active/passive water filtration, bioremediation and hull clean capture systems.

Port district staff ultimately determined it could identify a pilot project to pursue long-range solutions through an incubator plan. Discussions are currently in play, according to port district staff, with Red Lion Chem Tech Inc. and Rentunder AB to pursue copper remediation opportunities.

“Staff has initiated discussion with [Red Lion Chem Tech and Rentunder] … so the copper reduction technology could be considered as initial pilot projects for the blue tech incubator,” port district staff stated in its report to commissioners.

A proposal for incubator partnership could be in front of the board by spring 2017. The port district is also pursuing new business proposals for blue tech innovation.

District staff explains “blue tech” as “the advanced technology sector of the maritime industry” driving innova-

tion within the growing Blue Economy market opportunity.

A “Blue Economy,” according to port staff, balances economic opportunity with responsible investment in a sustainable ocean economy.

“The Blue Economy is comprised of a wide variety of marine-dependent businesses such as aquaculture and fisheries, eco-tourism, scientific research, security, and ocean-based technology or blue tech,” port staff stated in a report to the Board of Port Commissioners. “[It] involves technological advances in emerging areas such as marine renewables and biofuels, marine biotechnology and robotics, and other ocean-based industries.”

Opportunities in blue tech innovation and aquaculture have been at the top of the port district’s strategic plan to engage in long-term marine planning and environmental stewardship.

“The aquaculture and blue tech incubator programs will serve as cornerstones for district’s Blue Economy vision and create an environment in which innovation can excel, by providing ocean entrepreneurs with key assets, such as land and water entitlements, permit-ready infrastructure, marine spatial planning tools, regulatory expertise, and mentorship,” port district staff stated.

Developer proposes to fully renovate Long Beach’s Spinnaker Bay Marina California Coastal Commission grants permits to renovate private 192-slip marina.

By Parimal M. Rohit HALF MOON BAY — A private marina in southeast Long Beach will get a brand new look thanks to a developer’s proposal to completely renovate Spinnaker Bay Marina. The recreational boating venue nestled in the upper corner of Alamitos Bay is home to 192 privately owned slips.

Spinnaker Bay Slip Owners Association filed a request with the California Coastal Commission in May to approve a permit to have the private marina renovated; the permit was approved Nov. 3 at the commission’s November meetings in Half Moon Bay. Homeowners who live in residential subdivisions adjacent to the 192 boat slips mostly use the marina.

“The proposed development is the improvement of a boat marina, which promotes recreational boating and is an encouraged marine related use. No fill of coastal waters is proposed. The proposed development will not have any significant adverse effect on sensitive marine resources, such as eelgrass,” Coastal Commission staff stated in a report to commissioners.

The marina, which was built within an artificial waterway in the 1980s, would replace all slips, fingers, headwalks, wood whalers and gangways.

“The proposed project does not include reconfiguring the docks or slip size distribution,” Coastal Commission staff stated in a report to commissioners. “The development includes no intensification of use along the waterside or landside and there will be no increase in demand on the roadway system or surrounding waterways.

“In order to ensure that the approved development does not adversely affect public access along the water, the commission imposes [a special condition] … requiring that the proposed project shall not interfere with public access and use of the public walkway that runs between the permittee’s property and Spinnaker Bay,” commission staff continued.

Replacement of the headwalks and fingers would be completed in phases, according to Coastal Commission staff.

“The headwalks and fingers are in various stages of disrepair and will be entirely replaced over the next ten years. The applicant states that construction of the new floating dock fingers will be done off-site,” Coastal Commission staff explained in its report to commissioners. “The dock fingers will be floated into position and attached to the existing docks. During

the assembly of the fingers to the docks, boating use of the slips will not be disrupted. In the event a boat needs to be removed from the slip during construction, the boat will be moved to a vacant slip and then returned once work is completed.

“Thus, boater access to this private boating facility will be continuously

available,” Coastal Commission staff continued.

Spinnaker Bay Marina is located adjacent to Long Beach’s Marine Stadium, which hosted Olympic rowing events when the 1932 Summer Games were held in Los Angeles. Rowing trials for the 1968 Summer Games in Mexico City were also held at the Marine

Stadium.

Recreational boating, rowing and racing events are common activities in Marine Stadium and the Spinnaker Bay area.

Commissioners unanimously approved the Spinnaker Bay Marina permit request as part of its Nov. 3 Consent Calendar agenda.

ing to sell a boat. This leaves time to carefully review the Abstract and clear up any problems. But in this case our yacht broker waited until the eleventh hour, and there is simply no time to negotiate a compromise or sue the lien claimant.

Our reader really has only one option in this case, assuming he can get the buyer and seller to agree to this approach. The broker should accept the buyer’s money for the purchase of the boat and deposit those funds into his trust account. Then at closing, he should release the funds to the seller net of the amount of the lien claim, and retain those funds in trust pending resolution of the dispute within an agreed-upon period of time. Title may then be transferred to the buyer, since the Coast Guard will allow the transfer with a claim of lien on the title (title may not be transferred if an unsatisfied mortgage remains on the title).

After title is transferred, the seller will have time to negotiate a compromise or sue the lien claimant. If he is succeeds, the broker will release the retained amount to the seller and the transaction will be final. However, if he fails to resolve the problem, the broker will return the retained amount to the buyer, who may then take steps to resolve the problem himself or simply ignore the problem and enjoy the boat until the time comes for him to sell it.

As always, an experienced maritime attorney should be consulted if

thelog.com

confronted with a problem like this.

This seller’s dispute with the mechanic would have been a lot easier to resolve if the broker had ordered an Abstract of Title when the boat was first offered for sale.

Working together, we can create a vibrant waterfront community here in San Diego. We will model it after the successful communities that have done so, such as Lauderdale or Northport, New York (which has a very similar Embarcadero to ours, just lined with yachts, their owners in town, spending money). Let’s start talking about it.

California has increased by 8 inches since the early 1900s. A National Research Council study published in 2012 predicted sea levels along the California coast are expected to increase by 17 to 66 inches by 2100.”

Arithmetic says that 66 inches over the next 84 years is over 10 times the rate of 8 inches since 1900. The San Francisco tide gauge shows that the rate of sea level rise has varied since 1885 when records began.

The rate over a 30 year period has been as high as 4 mm/yr in the 1880s and as low as a negative -0.5 mm/yr in 2011. The current rate over the last 30 years is 1.5 mm/yr and the overall rate since 1885 is also 1.5 mm/ yr.

The obvious question to ask is, when will the rate of sea level begin to accelerate to values needed to achieve the predictions from the National Research Council?

Study shows Newport Harbor is one of the largest sources of revenue for Orange County.

Study measures financial importance of Newport Harbor The annual economic impact of Newport Harbor is $348.1 million.

By Nina K. Jussila NEWPORT BEACH – A first-time study was conducted to measure the economic impact of Newport Beach’s harbor to the surrounding community and to Orange County as a whole.

According to the findings, Newport Harbor generated $348.1 million in total economic impact for Orange County. Not to mention, Newport Harbor generates $202.4 million in economic impact to the City of Newport Beach and local businesses.

Newport Beach City Council members Scott Peotter and Marshall “Duffy” Duffield “came up with the idea of an economic study from a tourism standpoint [to quantify] the Harbor’s impact.” “(Duffield and I) approached Gary Sherwin at Visit Newport to see if he would be interested in taking the lead on this project since they use these types of studies all the time.

Gary agreed [to the study]. Duffy and I worked with Gary to come up with parameters to evaluate the economics and tourism aspects of the Harbor.

The consultant had great ideas and resources as well and the study is the compilation of that,” Peotter said.

Although city officials agree the harbor is a major economic generator for Newport Beach, there had not been a formal study that specifically quantified its value until now.

“It is using existing available data, using standards typically found in

tourism studies, so it does not have the in depth analysis from an economic standpoint like a Chapman University study might have,” Peotter pointed out, “but it does open the door and give us a good idea of the economic impact of the Harbor.”

Gary C. Sherwin, president and CEO of Newport Beach & Co. and Visit Newport Beach, Inc., stated: “As a community, we have always recognized that the harbor is a huge and defining asset for the community, but there has never been a dollar figure associated with it.

Considering the city’s investment in this asset, it is useful to know definitely what the harbor generates in terms of economic benefit and how important it is to the lifeblood of this community and our visitor industry.”

“As Duffy thought, and to put it in popular parlance, it is YUGE!” Peotter proclaimed, “[More than one-quarter] of our General Fund Revenue comes directly from the Harbor!”

The findings from the study show that Newport Harbor directly as well as indirectly supports jobs and increases home values. The study validates Newport Harbor as one of the largest sources of Orange County government revenue. “[It also shows] that the city needs to invest in the Harbor, not just the roads and parks,” concluded Peotter.

Newport Beach & Co. commissioned the study with the global tourism economics firm, Tourism Economics — an Oxford Economics Company. Tourism Economics has conducted harbor and port studies for Dubai, Bahamas, Abu Dhabi and the European Union shipping industry.

State wardens save captain from sinking sailboat Vessel was taking on water under cover of night near Two Harbors.

By Nina K. Jussila TWO HARBORS – Two California Department of Fish and Wildlife (DFW) officers patrolling the waters just off Catalina Island near Two Harbors spotted a sailboat in distress just before midnight on Oct. 21. The sailboat was sinking about 500 yards offshore, near Ship Rock.

As the officers approached, the captain of the sailboat came out of the cabin and yelled for help. The boat was grounded on the rocks, taking on water and rapidly sinking.

The DFW wardens maneuvered their patrol boat Swordfish beside the sinking sailboat. The man on the sinking boat was able to jump on board with a few items before the boat sank in 70 feet of water in less than five minutes. The rescued man was taken to Two Harbors and found accommodations there.

The two DFW officers involved in the rescue choose to remain anonymous. As wardens, they can be involved in under-

Dock Lines With Capt. Nicole Penny-wise, pound-foolish: the high cost of cheap but incompetent mechanics Story and photo by Capt. Nicole Sours Larson Sometimes trying to save money on maintenance, repairs and pre-purchase surveys can prove costly, leading to major damage and even the loss of your vessel.

Most boaters like to tinker and work on their boats. Be sure to know your skill levels and to call in competent professional assistance before exceeding your knowledge and capability.

Some of the most common errors boaters make involve using automotive or household-quality components to repair electrical, electronic, plumbing or hydraulic systems. Why not, you might ask. They’re the same parts, just installed on a boat.

no business license or insurance, offering only a phone number on his business card. Don’t ever hire such a worker, my informant advised, unless you have clear evidence of his competence, have spoken to satisfied customers and can see his proof of insurance.

Horror stories abound around marinas of “dock workers” hired for a single task. In an oft-repeated tale, they start the job and then pause, having identified another system requiring work, leaving the first system partially disassembled, then the second, then a newly identified third and fourth repair unfinished, rendering the entire boat vulnerable with the electrical and other systems out of service and batteries disconnected.

These poorly maintained parts, a burnt valve with a hole and a shaft with a corroded drip-less seal, contributed to major damage on the boats from which they were retrieved.

Not true! A boat exists in a far different, more hostile environment than a land-bound house. Salt water and sea air are corrosive. A boat moving through water or even at the dock must absorb pounding and vibrations. That’s why you should always use sturdily constructed marine-grade wiring, plumbing, hydraulic, engine and other parts on your boat.

If you want to work on your boat, but know you don’t have the skills or expertise, many professional boat mechanics will work with you and teach you how to maintain and repair specific systems.

That’s how my husband, who always does most of our maintenance, learned to rebuild our AquaFlush heads and maintain our diesel engines after we bought our current boat.

Hiring the wrong mechanic – or marine surveyor – can have devastating consequences, too, especially if that “mechanic” is really just a guy working the docks offering low rates but substandard skills.

Recently a knowledgeable source wishing to remain anonymous shared with me his box of horrors. It’s a collection of corroded valves repaired with incompatible metals, a poorly patched fuel tank, degraded hoses and a deteriorated fuel fill hose with a tragic tale. All parts were survivors of heavily damaged, sunk or destroyed vessels.

Many items came from vessels whose owners have tried to save a few bucks by hiring a roving “dock worker” or “truck mechanic” working from his truck with

Incompatible metals – brass, bronze and steel – should never be used together as they were on this repair to a raw water system or pump.

case when water started coming in from open hoses there was no way to prevent the boat’s sinking at the dock. The owners’“cheap” attempted repairs proved catastrophic.

A ratty fuel fill hose was the culprit in an accident involving the purchase of an old wooden Chris-Craft as a liveaboard.

The newbie owners hired a marginal surveyor suggested by their broker, who gave the boat a brief once-over, never noting the broken fuel fill hose. When the couple fueled the boat and tried to start their engines they wouldn’t start. Their mechanic recommended opening up the engine room to provide air. When they again tried to start the engines, the boat exploded, burning the man and tossing the woman, a professional dancer, onto the concrete dock, leaving her with a broken back and life in a wheelchair.

Before hiring a mechanic or surveyor, do your due diligence, checking references and insurance. Your boat’s – and your own – survival might depend on it.

News Briefs

STATE

From page 4

larvae of aquatic invasive mussels had been found for the first time in state waters.

Since then Montana’s fight to stop the spread of aquatic invasive species has literally gone to the dogs.

To help contain the spread of the invasive mussels, authorities first began using dogs specially trained to detect the presence of the mussels on the hulls of trailerable boats stopped at boat-checking stations in and around the Flathead basin.

After water samples from Tiber Reservoir east of Shelby, Montana tested positive for the larvae of aquatic invasive mussels. With similar tests from Canyon Ferry Reservoir near Helena showing “suspect” or inconclusive results, state officials decided to expand the use of trained dogs to inspect boat docks, launches and shorelines.

On Nov. 14, the Associated Press reported that dogs, which had been brought in from Canada, had alerted state officials to the presence of invasive mussels at the two reservoirs.

Officials said that although the dogs, trained to pick up the scent of zebra and quagga mussels, indicated that they smelled mussels at the Tiber and Canyon Ferry reservoirs, officials were unable to verify that mussels were actually present.

“This is the first positive test in Montana for the larvae of quagga or zebra mussels,” Eileen Ryce, FWP fisheries division administrator said in a release.

“The results from Tiber Reservoir show the larvae exist at very low densities, which improves our chances for containment.”

Brought by seagoing ships from Eastern Europe in the 1980s, zebra and quagga mussels do not have any natural enemies in the United States.

Previously not known to be established in Montana, mussel populations in other parts of the country including the Midwest, Southwest and Great Lakes areas have impaired hydroelectric, municipal and agricultural water infrastructure.

According to authorities the mussels travel between parts of the country mainly by hitching rides aboard boats and other watercraft on trailers.

Port of Long Beach awards $539,000 to community groups LONG BEACH — The Board of Harbor Commissioners has awarded 136 port community sponsorships totaling a record $538,750 in the first call of the fiscal year.

The sponsorships support Long Beach’s diverse arts, nonprofit and community groups.

During the September solicitation, the Port received a record 181 sponsorship applications. This was an increase of 61 percent from the same period last fall.

More than 40 percent of the applications in the most recent call were from groups that had previously never requested support. The Port, which uses the sponsorships to educate and engage the public about its role in international trade, is on pace to beat the record 273 applications it received last fiscal year.

The Harbor Commission approved the sponsorships. In 2015, the commissioners revamped the Port’s community sponsorship program with goals of increasing participation, setting clear, user-friendly guidelines and enhancing the focus on social responsibility. This year, commissioners increased the program’s budget to a historic $1 million.

“The Port of Long Beach believes in public service and supporting organizations that make our diverse city a great place to live,” said Commission President Lori Ann Guzmán. “We’ve taken these steps to increase our commitment to that mission, and it’s great to see the community responding.”

The wide variety of events sponsored include the American Cancer Society’s Long Beach Gala, an International City Theatre free performance series, the United States Veterans Initiative annual luncheon, the JetBlue Long Beach Marathon, the Martin Luther King Jr. Day Parade and the Boys and Girls Clubs of Long Beach annual gala. Commissioners and Harbor Department staff attend many of the events sponsored as part of the Port’s community outreach efforts.

Sponsorship applications are accepted from community groups twice a year, in March and September. Visit polb. com/community/sponsorship for more information.

Notice to boaters to avoid north entrance of Marina del Rey Harbor during dredging project MARINA DEL REY — Plans are in place for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) to remove 400,000 cubic yards of clean sediment from Marina del Rey Harbor starting early this month. The dredge vessel Heidi Renee is scheduled to arrive in the harbor on Dec. 5. The dredging project is scheduled from Dec. 2016 to May 2017.

The five-month, maintenance dredging effort will be limited to the removal of sand accumulated at the north entry of the Marina. In addition to the 220’-by60’ Heidi Renee, a 182’-by-44’ dump scow, Sand Island, will operate in the same area.

The equipment and 24-hour dredging work may make the north entrance impassible for periods of time. Boaters are encouraged to use the harbor’s south entrance for the duration of the project.

Sand dredged from the harbor will be deposited in the ocean directly off Dockweiler State Beach, just north of Imperial Highway. The $2.7 million federally funded dredging effort will assure safe navigation of the harbor entrance for the U.S. Coast Guard and other first responders as well as for the 5,000 recreational vessels docked in the Marina.

For more information, please contact the Department of Beaches and Harbors at info@bh.lacounty.gov.

OCEANSIDE — A gray whale was spotted off the coast of Oceanside on Nov. 19 with its tail in the air.

“First southbound gray whale of the 2016-17 season,” announced Captain Shane to the passengers aboard an Oceanside Adventures’ charter.

Each year, more than 20,000 Eastern Pacific Gray Whales travel over 10,000 miles round-trip from the seas of Alaska to the lagoons of Baja, California. Some of the gray whales continue further south into Cabo San Lucas and the Sea of Cortez.

This is the longest mammal migration known. The gray whales typically migrate from mid-December through April.

Some of the pregnant gray whales get a head start on the coastal journey to give birth in the warmer lagoon waters of Baja.

After the gray whales give birth and their calves grow strong, they migrate back to the feeding grounds in Alaska.

“In only 73 feet depth of water this gray whale was very close to the harbor.

Gray whales are coastal navigators so it’s not unusual to find them close to shore and along the backside of the Channel Islands,” stated Carla Mitroff, manager of Oceanside Adventures.

The gray whales are 36 to 46 feet long, weigh 38,000 to 99,000 pounds and have a life span of 30 to 70 years, according to the Aquarium of the Pacific.

Option Agreement for Marina del Rey project approved by supervisors Proposal to redevelop Parcel 44 will include a local worker hiring policy.

By Parimal M. Rohit LOS ANGELES — A proposal to bring a Trader Joe’s and West Marine to a boatingthemed waterfront area in Marina del Rey will also have a local worker hiring policy, the Los Angeles Board of Supervisors determined Oct. 18.

Supervisors approved an option agreement to allow the developer of Parcel 44 to incorporate a local worker hire program into its plans to redevelop an area surrounding one of Marina del Rey’s basins. The redevelopment project proposes to bring a mixed-use area featuring dining, recreational and retail activities.

“It basically just memorializes the fact that the director of Beaches and Harbors [department] includes language in the option agreement with Pacific Marina Venture Partners, the redeveloper of the parcel, to be in compliance with local and targeted-worker hire policy adopted by the board,” Sup. Mark Ridley-Thomas told his colleagues during the Oct. 18 meeting.

The local worker hiring policy was adopted Sept. 6 by the Board of Supervisors and implemented Nov. 1.

Accordingly the Parcel 44 developer would be the first vendor subject to the new county policy.

“We agreed to abide by the policy, but we’re a little afraid, a little scared in its implementation, because we’re the first out of the gate,” Aaron Clark, who spoke to supervisors on behalf of the developer, said.“It’s going to be a little intimidating, I think, for the private sector. It’s a noble cause.”

The option agreement would allow the lease agreement between Los Angeles County and Pacific Marina Venture to be extended an additional 39 years to March 31, 2062.

Pacific Marina Venture is expected to renovate the Parcel 44 area with new dry boat storage racks, a specialty market and other retail uses, restaurants, an updated marina and space for a yacht club. Boater serving amenities, such as laundry, brokerages and boat repair, are also expected to be included in a renovated Parcel 44.

The new marina would feature 141 slips and five end-ties. Parcel 44 is currently home to a 232-slip marina with

seven end-ties.

A public promenade, bicycle paths and water taxi, according to county staff, would improve public access to the waterfront.

About 15,000 square feet of existing landside uses would be demolished. The existing docks would also be removed and replaced.

Current uses surrounding Parcel 44 include a yacht anchorage, public parking and boat launch ramp.

County staff stated the minimum development cost is $23 million (in 2012 dollars).

An Environmental Impact Report

prepared for the Parcel 44 redevelopment stated the project’s benefits override its adverse effects on access, traffic, noise and solid waste.

The Parcel 44 redevelopment project appears to be moving forward but the proposal has met with some resistance.

Jon Nahhas, a local boating advocate, appealed the project to the California Coastal Commission in June.

Commissioners rejected Nahhas’ appeal, claiming the project did not raise substantial questions of concern.

Increased density and diminished view corridors were other concerns raised throughout the public process.

Planned amenities for the new Parcel 44: yy 141-slip marina

yy Marine supply store

yy Space for yacht club

Army Corps updates community on East Bay San Pedro Ecosystem Restoration study The breakwater near Long Beach’s harbor and marinas face an undetermined future.

By Nina K. Jussila LONG BEACH — The city of Long Beach and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers held a community update meeting Oct. 26. Details on the East San Pedro Bay Ecosystem Restoration Study were provided by the Army Corps. The goal of this 3-year study (previously referred to as the Long Beach Breakwater Project) is to restore and improve the local aquatic ecosystem. The results of the study will ultimately determine the fate of the breakwater in Long Beach.

Altering or removing the breakwater in Long Beach has been a debated topic for many years now. Those in support the idea of removing the breakwater believe it would not only improve ocean quality but tourism and recreational activities as well. Those opposed to the removal of the breakwater are concerned about the effects it will have on maritime operations as well as wave related damages and coastal flooding to

beachfront residences.

A source familiar with the situation and an active harbor user stated, “I know the Surfrider Foundation is behind it, [but] I don’t think it will ever happen. There are way too many things that have been built with the breakwater in mind [such as] the Port of Los Angeles and Long Beach. Not to mention, all the beachfront homes in Long Beach [would be affected]. You cannot remove something like that and not have catastrophic problems.”

Long Beach Surfrider Foundation has indeed been campaigning to remove the breakwater just off the Long Beach coast. The nonprofit stated the breakwater does not allow for the natural flow of water into Long Beach Harbor and no longer serves its original purpose.

When asked how the removal of the breakwater may affect boaters in the area, Diana Tang, manager of government affairs for the city of Long Beach and a project manager for the study, pointed out that there is no scientific data available at this time. She added the point of the study is to find out what

effects, whether positive or negative, a removed breakwater would have on the immediate area.

While the study is underway, the Army Corps is taking many factors into consideration to have as little disruption of harbor activity as possible.

During the study, the Army Corps plan is “to not reduce maritime operational capacity for the port as well as to minimize impacts to navigational channels and anchorages.”

Prior public input generated over 130 restoration measures for the study.

The initial appraisal has been concentrated into 12 final focus areas. Those areas of focus include “rocky reef habitat, near shore intertidal zone rocky/ sandy habitat, sandy-bottom eelgrass habitat, beds for oysters & other filter feeders, sandy bottom restoration, kelp habitat atop rocky reef, beach sand management, sandy/rocky island bird habitat, estuary or other coastal wetland, underwater contouring cut/fill, Los Angeles River training wall as well as modify or lower breakwater.”

The next steps that will be taken with this study involve “formulating the

draft alternative plans for use in modeling, conducting wave and water circulation modeling, developing and running habitat evaluation model, running cost-effectiveness and cost analysis, identifying final array of alternatives, identifying tentative selected plan and a public review of draft integrated feasibility report.”

The breakwater was built in 1949 as an extension of two other breakwaters just south of San Pedro and Wilmington. The adjacent middle breakwater, located by the Los Angeles and Long Beach harbors, was severely damaged by heavy waves in September 2014; the waves were caused during Hurricane Marie, which struck Mexico’s west coast a few days before its aftermath found its way up the Southern California coast.

In January, the city of Long Beach and Army Corps developed a partnership to share the cost for the East San Pedro Bay Ecosystem Restoration Study.

Results of the study will ultimately determine whether the breakwater just east of Long Beach Harbor would be removed.

The Island Company voiced its gratitude to Mr. Ning’s owners, partners and “hard-working” staff, acknowledging the restaurant “for providing the community and visitors with wonderful food and friendly service over the

Marine Gear and Water Sports Swap Meet benefitting junior sailing program OCEANSIDE — The Oceanside Yacht Club (OYC) is holding the Marine Gear and Water Sports Swap Meet on Dec. 10 from 7 a.m. to noon.

This event benefits the junior sailing program, a non-profit organization. The program teaches children how to navigate a sabot, a single mast sailboat with no motor. The program also trains youth on safety and mechanics. The “learn to sail program” has three levels of classes: beginner, intermediate and advanced. Those in the advanced classes can participate in junior races at various regattas.

This past year, there were 32 students ranging in age from eight to 18 years of age enrolled in the “learn to sail program.”

The sabots currently used for sailing are 40 years old. The OYC is raising money in the hopes of replacing these old sailboats with 10 to 12 new boats for beginners and four to six new boats for advanced. All children are welcome to enroll in this junior sailing program. A membership with OYC is not required.

Anyone is welcome to be vendor at this swap meet. Reserving a merchant space is $20. Members of the yacht club will be making and selling breakfast burritos and coffee. All proceeds from vendor fees as well as from food and coffee go 100 percent to the junior sailing program.

There are over a dozen vendors with more being added daily. Items for sale include dinghies, kayaks, folding bikes and more.

The swap meet is generally held each year in the fall, but due to so many autumn activities this year the yacht club pushed it back to later in the season.

The location is 1950 Harbor Drive North in Oceanside. Unload and set up time is 6:30 a.m.

For more information or to save a spot, call Bob anytime between 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. at 760-500-0849.

New York YC Medal awarded to Dennis Conner

Club, according to CMAA, includes: Universal Recognition, Excellence in Amenities and Facilities, Caliber of Staff and Professional Service Levels, Quality of Membership, Governance and Prudent Fiscal Management, Adapting to Changing Times and Overall Experience.

Since its founding in 1886, SDYC has become one of the most prominent clubs in the United States. It is one of three American yacht clubs (the other two being the New York Yacht Club and the Golden Gate Yacht Club in San Francisco) to win the prestigious America’s Cup. SDYC was the home of the “Auld Mug” from 1988 to 1995 and hosted three Cup races during that time. In its third defense in 1995, it lost to the New Zealand team.

SDYC has one of the largest and oldest junior sailing programs, which was founded in 1928 to teach swimming, boat care, racing tactics and sportsmanship to the club’s younger generation.

SDYC General Manager Terry Anglin was very thankful for this recognition.

“San Diego Yacht Club is thrilled to receive this ranking and remain among the top five yacht clubs in the county,” stated Anglin.

San Francisco’s St. Francis Yacht Club topped the 2016-18 Platinum Clubs list of top yacht clubs, a distinction it also received in 2012 and 2014. Grosse Pointe Yacht Club (Grosse Pointe, Michigan), New York Yacht Club and Annapolis Yacht Club (Annapolis, Maryland) rounded out the list of top five clubs.

NEW YORK (LOG NEWS SERVICE) — America’s Cup winner, Olympic medalist and sailing legend Dennis Conner was honored Nov. 10 with the New York Yacht Club Medal at the club’s 44th Street clubhouse in the heart of Manhattan.

The New York Yacht Club said in a release the medal was first awarded in 1964 to the members of the Constellation America’s Cup syndicate as an expression of the club’s appreciation. Since 1985, flag officers have periodically awarded the medal in recognition of achievements of particular merit or outstanding contributions to the club or yachting in general.

“Dennis Conner has had more impact on sailing than any sailor in the world over the past four decades,” New York YC Commodore A. Rives Potts Jr. said in the release.

This represents just the 17th time the club has awarded this medal. Previous honorees include legendary yacht designer Olin Stephens, America’s Cup challenger Baron Marcel Bich, William Koch and America’s Cup winner and television commentator Gary Jobson, New York YC said in its statement.

“It was huge night for me,” said Conner.

“Being awarded the New York Yacht Club medal is special; it’s one of the most coveted honors in yachting.”

Conner’s exemplary record as a yachtsman spans all facets of the sport. He won a bronze medal in the Tempest class at the 1976 Olympic games in Montreal, has

numerous world championships to his credit and sailed in two Whitbread Races.

The America’s Cup, however, was one constant in his career.

Conner sailed on board Ted Hood’s winning Courageous team in 1974 and then skippered winning teams in 1980, 1987 and 1988.

Conner’s 30-year-plus association with sailing’s flagship event wasn’t without its challenges. His relationship with the New York YC suffered after he lost the Cup in 1983 to John Bertrand and Australia II — ending the club’s historic 132-year winning streak — and challenged for the 1987 Cup representing the San Diego Yacht Club.

The 1988 defense was marred by a protracted legal battle that continued

long after the famously lopsided match between Conner’s wing-sailed catamaran Stars & Stripes and Sir Michael Fay’s monstrous monohull from New Zealand.

Nonetheless his standing among the greatest sailors ever to compete for the Auld Mug is without question.

Conner’s relationship with the New York YC, where he has been a member since 1980, has long since been repaired.

He partnered with the New York YC for his final challenge for the America’s Cup in Auckland, New Zealand in 2003.

He was inducted into the America’s Cup Hall of Fame with its inaugural class in 1993. Conner is also a member of the first group of inductees to the National Sailing Hall of Fame.

Southern California fishing news

NOAA could declare bluefin tuna as an endangered species Federal agency seeks scientific and commercial information before making final decision.

By Parimal M. Rohit WASHINGTON, D.C. — A petition to declare Pacific bluefin tuna as a threatened or endangered species could be successful, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) announced in October.

The federal agency is seeking scientific and commercial information about Pacific bluefin tuna through Dec. 12 to determine whether an endangered species designation is warranted.

NOAA was petitioned in June by the Center for Biological Diversity (CBD) and 13 others to have Pacific bluefin tuna listed as a threatened or endangered species under the Endangered Species Act, or ESA. “We find that the petition presents substantial scientific information indicating the petitioned action may be warranted,” NOAA staff stated in its 90-day finding of the CBD petition.

The finding was published Oct. 11 on Federal Register.

“We will conduct a status review of the Pacific bluefin tuna to determine whether the petitioned action is warranted. To ensure that the status review is comprehensive, we are soliciting scientific and commercial information

Tight lines — By Parimal M. Rohit The Nature Conservancy launches technology plan to balance tuna fishery What’s Up: Artificial intelligence might help a scientists and a conservation organization bring changes to the tuna fishery and establish a sustainable seafood supply.

The Nature Conservancy announced the launch of a “technology challenge” to help shore up the tuna fishery and combat illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing.

“In the Pacific, where we source more than half of our world’s tuna supply, 98 percent of longline tuna boats are operating blind. An estimated $500 million to $1.5 billion is lost every year from illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing in the region,” The Nature Conservancy staff said in a released statement.

“Knowing what, where and how much is being caught is key to managing a sustainable fishery.”

The Bottom Line: The Nature Conservancy’s “technology challenge” aims

to ramp up data review time. Fishing boats can be equipped with electronic monitoring systems (cameras, sensors, GPS, etc.). Analyzing data afterwards is the biggest struggle, according to the Nature Conservancy.

“It takes a person six hours to review a single, ten-hour fishing day. There are thousands of boats in the fishery, which go out for weeks or months at a time so when they return, they would have hundreds of hours of footage to review,” The Nature Conservancy staff stated in its announcement, which was made Nov. 14.

Artificial Intelligence could be used to help review data and ultimately restore a depleted tuna supply.

“The challenge calls for data scientists to apply Artificial Intelligence to the video review process,” The Nature Conservancy staff stated. “Artificial Intelligence coupled with electronic monitoring on fishing boats could be the answer to restoring our depleting tuna supply, protecting vulnerable species like sharks and turtles, and securing the economies of Pacific Island nations.”

Harvested bluefin tuna have the potential of becoming an endangered species due to being typically caught before reproducing.

DFW to no longer accept cash for licenses Anglers must use check, money order or debit/credit card for fishing license purchases.

By Parimal M. Rohit STATEWIDE — The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (DFW) announced last month it would, as of Jan. 1, 2017, no longer accept cash at regional counters for fishing license purchases.

DFW’s new no-cash policy was instituted to cut down costs and improve efficiency, according to state officials.

Payments can only be made with check, money order or a debit/credit card with the Visa or MasterCard logo in front.

“This ‘no-cash policy’ will improve customer and employee safety, department efficiency, customer service and

provide cost savings,” DFW staff stated.

“Accepting cash payments is costly in both the staff time it takes to process and in armored car services.”

Local sales agents will continue to accept cash for DFW transactions.

Authorized local sales agent locations can be found on the DFW website at ca.wildlifelicense.com/InternetSales/ OutletSearch/FindOutlet.

A colorful catch amidst reports of exotic bites

By Parimal M. Rohit Exotic bites, such as bluefin, yellowfin and wahoo, have been stealing all the November fishing headlines. Plenty of other species, however, are highlighting offshore catches up and down the Southern California coast, as well.

Capt. Steve Earwood of New Hustler (Hook’s Landing in Onxard) shared this photo of angler Shawn Hawley and his 18-pound sheephead catch. The blackred-and-white fish was caught with live sardine and live squid near Santa Rosa Island in mid-November.

The carnivorous fish can grow up to 3 feet long and weigh as much as 36 pounds.

Sheephead primarily live in kelp forests and prefer to eat crabs, lobsters, mollusks and sea urchins, according to Monterey Bay Aquarium. Anglers generally find sheephead anywhere between Monterey Bay and Baja California.

San Diego Report

Bluefin Tuna Action Continues Despite Late November Storms The calendar is ready to roll over into the month of December. The late part of November has brought a couple of northern weather systems to Southern California that have been accompanied by strong winds, rain and high seas. The amazing thing for Southern California anglers is that through all the bad weather, there are still bluefin tuna biting at the Tanner Bank. Who knows how long the bluefin bite might last, but at last word, the recent bad weather had not yet sent the bluefin packing.

The recent bad weather has had an effect on the water temperature with the past several days seeing the water temperature where the bluefin have been biting at the Tanner Bank dropping from 65.5 degrees to 62.5 degrees. The drop in water temperature did not shut off the bluefin bite but could eventually have an effect, especially if it drops much further. The bluefin have been biting best for boats fishing around the eastern edges of the Tanner Bank and most of the bluefin have been falling within the 50 to 110 pound range.

The best bait for the bluefin has been live squid and there has also been some action reported on the fresh frozen dead squid as well as 160 gram Flat Fall jigs in the fluorescent finish. Most of the squid is being caught at the Isthmus at Catalina. Live squid has also often been available for purchase at some of the Long Beach/San Pedro area bait

receivers.

When fishing for the bluefin with squid, the best tackle setup is using two speed reels and as heavy of a line and fluorocarbon leader combination that you can use and still draw strikes. The bluefin have been biting on line with leader combinations that have been in the 50 to 80 pound test range while using circle hooks ranging from size 3/0 to 6/0. Anglers have been using some weight to fish their squid. A couple of productive weight arrangements have been using either a 0.5 to one ounce sliding egg sinker or a sliding rubber band attached weight that is placed about 25 feet above the hook.

The bluefin at the Tanner Bank have been biting during both the day and night. The best times of day and night have been the early morning, the late afternoon and during the early evening hours of darkness.

The most recent sportboat counts for boats fishing the bluefin start with Freedom out of 22nd Street Sportfishing that had 28 anglers on a 1.5-day trip catch 18 bluefin tuna and four yellowtail. H&M Landing had Old Glory fishing a 1.5-day trip with 30 anglers that caught sic bluefin tuna and four yellowtail. Point Loma Sportfishing had 30 anglers on a 1.5-day trip aboard New Lo Ann catching four bluefin tuna.

Seaforth Sportfishing had a 1.5-day trip on Tribute that had 33 anglers catching one bluefin tuna and three bonito.

Seaforth Sportfishing also had Aztec

out on a 1.5-day trip with 25 anglers that caught three bluefin tuna and one yellowtail.

Bluefin tuna have attracted most of the attention but before the recent bad weather there were still some yellowfin tuna biting as well. It is yet to be seen if there are still yellowfin around as no boats that I know of have fished the yellowfin in the past six days. At last report there were yellowfin biting with porpoise found in the region of the 289 Spot inside of San Clemente Island. These were 18 to 25 pound yellowfin that were biting on trolled Halco jigs, cedar plugs and feathers as well as on slow trolled or drifted sardines.

The fishing at Los Coronado Islands has been good for rockfish while working hard bottom areas to the northwest of North Island and along the outer ridge areas located outside of and below South Island. Some of the more productive depths for the rockfish fishing have been in the 35 to 45 fathom range.

The surface fishing has been generally scratchy around Los Coronado Islands but there is still a chance of finding occasional flurries of yellowtail or bonito action. The best zone for a chance at surface fishing action has been while fishing along the weather side of North Island.

Similar to the fishing at Los Coronado Islands, boats fishing along the San Diego County coast have been into what is mostly a bottom fishing mode. Skippers have been focusing

on working hard bottom and structure spots for rockfish and have also been picking up a few bass and an occasional halibut. There has been a bit of surface fishing action to be found at the upper end of La Jolla which has been producing an occasional flurry of action on yellowtail and bonito. The best specific area for a chance at some surface fishing action has been at the hard bottom and kelp stringer area of Northwest that is located outside of the upper end of La Jolla.

We are on the doorstep of the month of December and there is still a chance of going out to the Tanner Bank to target large bluefin tuna. It is not often that we have a chance at bluefin tuna this late in the year, and we do not often get chances at catching 50 to 110 pound bluefin tuna whatever the time of year.

I believe these fish to be part of the lingering effects of our recent El Nino condition. I hope you get a chance to get out fishing and get in on this very late in the season action. Keep on fishing, and I hope to see you out on the water!

The ninth annual Halibut Derby held at Dana Wharf Sportfishing began on the first day of November. This is “the only fishing contest that we hold every year,” Donna Kalez, Dana Wharf owner and operator, is quoted as saying. Last year’s winning halibut weighed in at 23.5 pounds. This year’s biggest catch so far is even larger. The current leader is a halibut weighing 32.09 pounds caught by David Mendez of Victorville. There is still plenty of time to participate with the final halibut drift day on Sunday, April 2, 2017.

SALTWATER OCEAN FISHING REPORT

By Terrence Berg 976-TUNA.com BIG BLUEFIN STILL GOOD ON TANNER BANK: Despite windy conditions that have hampered fishing, the bigger boats are still finding good numbers of the big bluefin tuna on the Tanner Bank. The fish continue to be excellent quality, running from 60 to 120 pounds. The big tuna are focusing on squid, and most boats are carrying the candy bait.

The scores tell the story. Aztec out of Seaforth Sportfishing was on a 1.5-day trip on Nov. 21 and the 30 anglers on board had 43 bluefin. Tribute, also out of Seaforth Sportfishing on a 1.5-day trip on Nov. 27, had 30 anglers and they caught 44 bluefin, 12 bonito, and a mako shark. Oceanside 95 out of Helgren’s Sportfishing had 35 anglers on its 1.5-day trip, and they landed 49 bluefin to 112 pounds. Freedom out of 22nd Street Landing had 28 anglers on its 1.5-day trip and they landed 42 bluefin. Also on Nov. 27, New Lo-An out of Point Loma had 32 anglers on a 1.5-day trip and they landed 21 bluefin. Toronado out of Pierpoint Landing had 30 anglers on an overnight trip on Nov. 21, and they landed 32 bluefin and 17 yellowtail.

Federal officials are also seeking information of the species’ distribution and population spatial structure, its observable physical and genetic behaviors and whether adequate regulatory mechanisms and protections are in place to promote conservation of Pacific bluefin tuna biomass.

Information about recreational or commercial bycatch/targeted harvest and whether efforts to protect/restore Pacific bluefin tuna and its habitats are implemented will be sought as well.

“We are interested in any information concerning protective efforts that have not yet been fully implemented or demonstrated effectiveness,” NOAA officials stated in its 90-day finding.

location was not disclosed, Outer Limits out of Seaforth Sportfishing was on an overnight trip on Nov. 22 with 16 anglers. They landed 44 yellowfin tuna and two yellowtail.

CATLINA YELLOWTAIL STILL GOOD: The yellowtail action at Catalina Island remains very consistent with scores ranging from excellent to decent over the week of Nov. 21 to Nov. 27.

Add in a good bite on the bonito, a few bass, and a mix of bottom fish, and you have very good action continuing at Catalina.

Some scores to illustrate: On one of the best trips of the past week, Freelance out of Davey’s Locker had 58 anglers on Sunday. They landed 120 yellowtail, 80 bonito, 40 red snapper, 30 perch, 13 sheephead, seven calico bass, and two lingcod. Pursuit out of 22nd Street Landing had 69 anglers on its full-day trip to Catalina on Nov. 27, and they had 10 yellowtail, 37 bonito, six perch, two calico bass, two sheephead, and one halibut. Sportking out of LA Waterfront Sportfishing had 17 anglers on Nov. 22, and they landed 13 yellowtail, 57 bonito, 11 whitefish and four calico bass. Sportking’s Saturday trip this past week had 32 anglers who landed 160 yellowtail, 42 bonito, 12 calico bass, 10 whitefish, and three sheephead.

action along much of the coast for the half-day and local three-quarter day boats, especially at the more northerly landings. New Del Mar out of Marina del Rey Sportfishing was on a half-day trip on Nov. 22 with 60 anglers, and they had 330 rockfish. The half-day on the same boat on Nov. 27 with 48 anglers nearly had limits of 470 rockfish. Island Spirit out of Ventura Sportfishing had 21 anglers on Nov. 22 on a full-day trip.

They had 210 whitefish, 125 rockfish, 66 ling cod, and one sheephead. On Nov. 23, Gentleman out of Channel Islands Sportfishing had 29 anglers on its three-quarter day trip. They landed 290 rockfish and one lingcod. On Nov. 22 trip, the 52 anglers on Gentleman landed 520 whitefish, 105 rockfish, 13 lings, and five sheephead.

CBD petitioned NOAA almost six months ago to have Pacific bluefin tuna declared as a threatened or endangered species. The environment advocacy group stated Pacific bluefin tuna are, because of overfishing, at high risk of becoming extinct.

“Pacific bluefin tuna are severely overfished, and overfishing continues, making extinction a very real risk,” CBD staff stated in its June 20 petition.

“According to the 2016 stock assessment by the International Scientific Committee for Tuna and Tuna-Like Species in the North Pacific Ocean (ISC), decades of overfishing have left the population at just 2.6 percent of its unfished size.”

The petition added Pacific bluefin tuna must be conserved due to the species’ value in the marine ecosystem as an apex predator, according to the CBD petition. CBD alleged the United States “has not taken adequate steps to prevent overfishing and to rebuild Pacific bluefin tuna.”

Bycatch rates of Pacific bluefin tuna have been in decline since 1935, the CBD petition continued, with fishing being the primary culprit.

“Fishing is the primary threat to the survival of Pacific bluefin tuna.

Basin-wide landings of Pacific bluefin tuna have declined substantially since they peaked in 1935,” the CBD petition stated. “The fact that catch has continued to decline despite increases in fishing efforts shows that the bluefin population has crashed.”

Landings have reported between 11,325 and 29,174 metric tons of Pacific bluefin tuna bycatch in the past 10 years, compared to a peak of 47,148 metric tons in 1935, according to CBD. CBD’s petition asserts current Pacific bluefin tuna bycatches are almost entirely juveniles, preventing the species from spawning.

“Nearly 98 percent of all Pacific bluefin tuna landed are juveniles caught primarily in nursery grounds near Japan or off the coast of California

and Mexico before they have had a chance to spawn,” the petition explained. “[The species’] reproduction is currently supported by just a few adult age classes that will soon disappear due to old age.”

Pacific bluefin tuna are pelagic, highly migratory and slow growing; the species is known to swim across the Pacific Ocean basin and maintain a body temperature higher than surrounding waters. The average lifespan of a Pacific bluefin tuna is 20 years; sexual maturity is reached between ages 3 and 5.

NOAA will end its open comment and information-seeking period Dec. 12. Comments and information can be sent to NOAA via email (scott.rumsey@ noaa.gov or marta.nammack@noaa. gov), snail mail (Protected Resources Division, West Coast Region, NMFS, 1201 NE Lloyd Blvd., Suite #1100, Portland, Oregon 97232), or the federal rulemaking online portal at bit. ly/2ggDwcb.
