County officials present proposals to legalize unlawful boat chartering.

By Nina K. Jussila MARINA DEL REY — Illegal charter operations in Marina del Rey continue to be a contentious issue, but Los Angeles County’s Department of Beaches and Harbor’s (DBH) offered a pair of proposals, June 14, to curb unregulated and off-the-radar charters.

The goal, DBH staff and commissioners stated, is to have all boat charter businesses following the same rules and regulations.

DBH Chief Property Manager Michael Rodriguez presented the Small Craft Harbor Commission with two options to legalize unlawful boat charters and level the playing field.

One proposal called for leaseholders to secure a commercial sublease and ensure land use conformance.

“What an operator would need to do is enter into a commercial sublease with their respective anchorage,” Rodriguez stated, “and in order to conform to the land use [the operator would need to] get an additional use permit that would allow…chartering in

an area that’s not set for chartering. But that’s a costly process.

“I think it’s about a $9,000 application fee. Then you have got to go through a hearing, so it’s a little bit lengthy. And part of that land use conformance is parking,” Rodriguez continued.

Cost and parking are not the only issues, however. Rodriguez pointed out the lease may not even allow chartering.

Parcel 55 provides an alternative.

Charter boat operators can apply to Pacific Ocean Management to use the reconstructed dock.

Operators of charter boats must meet minimum requirements to utilize this dock. “Captains have to be licensed by the coast guard. Boats need to be visually inspected. Operators need insurance [and] the valid county business license from the Treasure of Tax Collector [as well as] any kind of permits required for serving food and alcohol,” Rodriguez explained.

There were three to four operators running charter boats from Parcel 55 prior to summer.

The dock, however, does not allow chartering for boats berthed outside of Marina del Rey at this time, nor does it permit bareboat chartering.

Marina del Rey continues exploring crackdown of illegal charter operations

L.A. County’s Department of Beaches and Harbors proposed a pair of policies to combat illegal charter activity in Marina del Rey.

Last month’s discussion on illegal charters did meet with some friction.

Bob Atkins, who operates Cariblue Charters out of Marina del Rey, told commissioners there are many people renting boats to go to the islands for a few days to a week.

“The entire Pier 55 thing for bareboat chartering is like a nonstarter –

totally not thought out,” Atkins said.

With the current requirements, Parcel 55 does not allow for the chartering of a boat without a licensed captain.

Meanwhile local boat owner Peter Beale stated the boating industry, as a whole, is changing.

Swarm of strange sea creatures invade the Pacific Ocean

By Nina K. Jussila WEST COAST — Strange sea creatures have made their way into the Pacific Ocean along the coast of Northern California, Oregon, Washington, British Columbia and Alaska. The vast number of these sea creatures, called pyrosomes, is also surprising as these species are normally found in tropical oceans.

Fishermen have found them a nuisance as they stick to hooks and nets, since they feed on the same plankton as the fish.

Just last month, a mass of pyrosomes washed up on the

NEWS BRIEFS NATION/world Man first to complete 750mile Race to Alaska on paddleboard PORT ANGELES, Washington (AP) — After more than two weeks of paddling, Karl Kruger has become the first person to complete the 750-mile Race to Alaska on a standup paddleboard.

Kruger, 45, of Orcas Island, arrived in Ketchikan, Alaska after 14 days, 6 hours and 17 minutes paddling 710 miles (1,143 km) from Victoria, B.C. There he was reunited at the dock finish line with daughter Dagny and his wife, Jessica, who had been providing updates on her Facebook page throughout the race.

shore of Monterey Bay. A couple weeks ago, scientists in British Columbia came across a swarm of them.

Pyrosomes means fire bodies in Greek as “pyro” means fire and “some” means body. They were given that name because they are bioluminescent, according to Ocean Network Canada’s staff scientist Fabio De Leo. “Pyrosomes are colonial tunicates. They have some characteristics that resemble a vertebrate when they are in their early stages of develop-

The number of pyrosomes, or sea pickles, has recently spiked along the coastlines of California, Oregon, Washington, British Columbia and Alaska.

Kruger’s plan for the race was to paddle 100 miles per day to finish the Race to Alaska (R2AK) in a week, according to his R2AK team profile. While that didn’t quite work out, Kruger was still the first on a solely human-powered craft, and easily the smallest craft, to cross the finish line this year.

Kruger, aka Team Heart of Gold, finished the race ahead of several teams, including rowers, kayakers and a few small sailboats.

There were two other paddleboarders in this year’s race, but they dropped out mid-race after a bout of the flu.

This year was Kruger’s second attempt to paddle the R2AK. Last year, he made it across the Strait of Juan de Fuca to Victoria but roughly 100 miles into the 710 miles to Ketchikan, his board broke and he was forced to quit.

This year was the R2AK’s third running. The race is organized by the Northwest Maritime Center and is open to all watercraft with one stipulation: There can be no engine. The race doesn’t have classes or handicaps, just $10,000 for the winner and for second place, a set of steak knives.

Team Pure and Wild won this year’s race at 3:05 p.m. June 15.

He attributes their presence BW to warmer waters just as warm water sharks have made their way all the way up to Alaska.

“When a new species invades a new area in the ocean, normally it takes over.

There is a predator for those animals in the tropics. But here in the Pacific they don’t have any natural predators, so they just start blooming away,” De Leo stated.

The 65-foot, hand-built Nina is a replica of the ship Columbus sailed across the Atlantic in 1492.

The floating museum is owned by the Columbus Foundation, based in the British Virgin Islands, and is supported by tour fees.

The 85-foot Pinta was recently built in Brazil to accompany the Nina. The organization doesn’t have a replica of Columbus’ third ship, Santa Maria.

NEWPORT BEACH — Plans to make Newport Beach’s second anchorage a permanent feature are still being vetted, but boaters will still be able to drop anchor in open water near the Turning Basin throughout the summer as temporary markers for the seasonable venue were installed prior to Memorial Day. Newport Beach’s Harbor Commission discussed the possibility of making the West Anchorage a permanent seasonal feature. The city’s harbor is already home to a permanent anchorage.

Harbor Resource Manager Chris Miller seeks to have the commission come to terms with a plan to establish a second permanent anchorage before approaching Newport Beach City Council for approval.

“The Harbor Commission has to agree on a formal recommendation. The recommendation then goes to City Council for approval,” Harbor Commission Chair Paul

Blank explained. “It will also require a permit/approval from the U.S. Coast Guard. At the June Harbor Commission meeting Harbor Manager Miller was directed to begin the application and permitting process with the USCG as it can be a lengthy process.”

There are other important harbor matters such as dredging projects, code enforcement and the new harbor management processes, Blank pointed out, but the seasonal anchorage is a benefit for boaters.

“I feel the West Anchorage is a good (perhaps even great) enhancement for the harbor because it offers boaters (both those visiting form other harbors as well as boat residents in Newport) a safe, well protected alternative place to anchor at no cost,” Blank stated. “It alleviates some congestion in the very busy ‘5 Points’ section of the harbor east of Lido Isle, is adjacent to an area of high concentration of businesses, services and amenities boaters most want to visit when they come ashore and, when the new Public Pier at Central Avenue is constructed later this year will provide a new, convenient level of connectivity for boaters and shore-side services.

Re: Redondo Beach shifts mooring management to private firm (June 16-29 issue)

Boaters were able to anchor “Boaters were unable to moor in the harbor for the previous 25 years.” But we were able to “anchor,” for free, for the past 25 years. The paid moorings just replaced one of the last free anchorages in Southern California. If you have to pay, you might as well get a slip. I’m speculating that’s why there is no interest in the moorings. Same thing as the moorings off Island White in Long Beach. Great idea to make money, but in practice it doesn’t work. I also speculate the harbor police were too lazy to administer the anchorage as an anchorage. I know the one time I anchored there, on my way down the coast, and in need of a break due to exhaustion, they didn’t seem too happy to see me. But, I admit, they did let me anchor.

Catalina

Hurry Up and Wait: Avalon’s New Vons Market Plans to expand island’s only big box supermarket moves forward at a snail’s pace.

By Parimal M. Rohit AVALON — Catalina Island prides itself on essentially being a safe haven for unique personalities and small town charm. Avalon, for example, is home to three chain or franchise businesses amidst a myriad of mom-and-pop storefronts: Bluewater Grill, U.S. Bank and Vons.

One of those mainland-based companies has been trying to consolidate and expand its operations on the island, but the process has been moving about as slowly as the DMV-working sloth in the film Zootopia.

The Vons operation at Avalon, for those who aren’t savvy, is currently split into two locations within blocks of each other – one at 123 Metropole Avenue and the other, an Express store, at 120 Catalina Avenue.

Vons opened its Metropole Avenue location in 1987; Vons Express launched in 1999 after the supermarket chain purchased Fred and Sally one year earlier, Avalon’s only other grocery store at the time.

Plans to combine both stores into a larger location have been in the works for a few years now. Vons’ parent company, Safeway (a subsidiary of Albertsons since 2014), purchased land off of Beacon Street, in hopes of consolidating both Vons locations into one larger See STANDING WATCH page 7

Fast Facts: The Brown Berets occupy Avalon

By Parimal M. Rohit AVALON — Aug. 30, 2017 will mark the 45-year anniversary of one of the most bizarre moments in Avalon and Catalina Island history. More than two-dozen Brown Berets attempted to occupy the island on Aug. 30, 1972 claiming Catalina, along with the rest of the Channel Islands, was illegally possessed by the United States.

The Brown Berets, consisting of 25 men and one woman, reportedly arrived on the island in mid-summer and occupied Catalina for 24 days.

Their occupation of Catalina Island was more symbolic than anything else, according to a book penned by Richard Griswold del Castillo. His book, “The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo: A Legacy of Conflict,” pointed out there was a popular belief the Channel Islands belonged to Mexico, not the United States.

“None of the nine Channel Islands … had been mentioned in the treaty as part of the territory ceded to the United States in 1848,” del Castillo wrote, pointing out some interpreted the treaty as not vesting Catalina Island and her neighbors to the United States.

Of course Catalina Island, through a series of grants between 1846 and 1919, was eventually in the hands of William Wrigley, Jr. and legally included within U.S. boundaries.

The Brown Berets, nonetheless, spent 24 days trying to reclaim the island for Mexico.

“During that time the Brown Beret camp

became something of a tourist attraction,” de Castillo wrote.“The small Mexican American populations of the island helped provide food and drink for the Chicano demonstrators. Local restaurateur Mike Budd gave them a free meal at his restaurant.”

The Brown Berets, through their demonstration and occupation, argued the United States illegally occupied Catalina and the entire American Southwest.

“Mexican Americans were a colonized people, [the Berets] said, victims of an unjust war of oppression,” del Castillo wrote.“The occupation of Catalina ended peacefully on September 23, when the City Council decided to enforce a local camping ordinance and threatened jail unless the berets abandoned their campground.”

The Brown Berets vowed to return, but the organization was disbanded by its leader a few weeks later.

store. The Board of Directors of the Catalina Island Chamber of Commerce & Visitors Bureau unanimously supported plans for the new Vons.

The supermarket chain was subject of a federal lawsuit several years ago, when the state of California and U.S. Department of Justice jointly sued Safeway, alleging violations of antimonopoly laws by establishing only one grocery market in Avalon. A federal court, in 2006, ruled the monopoly claim was valid. The only place boaters can buy groceries while visiting Avalon, after all, is at either of the two Vons locations.

The Log has consistently been reporting about the new Vons location on Beacon Street since July 2015. Two years has passed and next to nothing has changed. Construction was supposed to start in April, according to our recent coverage of the corporate grocer’s plans – but the project appears to be at a standstill three months later, based on City Manager David Jinkens’ most recent city management update.

“The City Council and Avalon community is very interested in the timeframe for construction and completion of the new Vons store,” Jinkens wrote in his July 2 update. He invited Robert Miller, CEO and Chairman of Albertsons, to send a representative to the island and address the public on the project.

“A letter written on June 29, 2017

requested Mr. Miller’s assistance to have a knowledgeable representative attend the July 18, 2017 meeting of the City Council to make a presentation,” Jinkens’ update continued. “We are all anxious to learn of their company’s progress.”

Whether anyone from Vons or Albertsons actually attends the upcoming July 18 meeting remains to be seen, but the situation appears to be

an interesting case of role reversal.

Normally it’s the private sector anxiously awaiting the slow wheels of governmental bureaucracy to turn.

Now it appears a public sector is sitting on pins and needles, awaiting the go-ahead from the insides of some Corporate America conference room.

Oh the irony.

Of course we don’t fully know why the Vons project has not yet taken off.

There was some talk of incorporating noise mitigation during construction and all parties involved trying to fulfill certain conditions.

Construction work, nonetheless, has not yet started on the new Vons – despite previous reports in The Log citing a desire to move the project along as quickly as possible.

Perhaps the Vons project needs a push from the public.

TAKE ACTION When will the new Vons finally take flight? Can Avalon’s boaters, business owners, residents and visitors do anything to push the process along? Reaching out to Avalon’s public officials is certainly one option. Let them know your position on the new store. Should the city push harder to bring the new Vons online? Are you frustrated with how all parties involved are handling the matter? Is the project taking too long to realize? Perhaps you think the current setup is working out just fine.

Share your thoughts with Avalon’s elected, appointed and hired leaders.

Latest News Updates

The boating public can now provide input on proposed ethanol levels for 2018. Biofuels such as ethanol could remain at maximum allowable levels next year.

What Happened: The Environment Protection Agency (EPA) proposed reducing biofuel levels for 2018. The mandated volume for conventional biofuels such as ethanol, however, will remain at the maximum allowable level of 15 billion gallons.

Boating advocacy groups have come out against the EPA decision, saying the mandate continues to jeopardize boaters who fuel with E15 (15 percent ethanol) or greater fuel.

“NMMA has maintained the need for the EPA to propose lower 2018 levels to ensure that the boating public remains safe on the water and continues to enjoy access to approved fuel blends,” a statement issued by National Marine Manufacturers Association said. “This announcement is ultimately disconcerting for the more than 88 million boaters and 35,000 businesses that make up the recreational boating and fishing industry.”

NMMA has advocated for the national fuel supply to carry fuels of E10 (10 percent ethanol) or biobutanol for the benefit of boaters.

The EPA stated its proposed mandated was based upon “real world challenges, such as the slower-than-expected development of the cellulosic biofuel industry.”

EPA’s annual mandate proposals are required under the Renewable Fuel Standards, or RFS. What’s On Tap: Public input on the EPA proposal will be accepted through Nov. 30. Details of the public process will be

DBH staff has already been actively seeking out illegal charters, as Rodriguez said would happen back at the Dec. 14, 2016 meeting. Property agents are going to harbormasters with names of leaseholders in violation.

Girling will serve on the commission for another four years, while Beer will complete the remainder of former commissioner Doug West’s term. West resigned from his seat and will be moving to the East Coast.

Beer was one of the applicants previously considered for a commission vacancy in April; Mayor Kevin Muldoon and Council member Scott Peotter voted for Beer back then. He received enough votes during the most recent appointment cycle to be elevated to the Harbor Commission.

What’s On Tap: Beer will serve out the remainder of West’s term (about one year).

Both appointments were made June 27.

as a “witch hunt.”

“I think it’s important for this commission to go on record and send a letter to both the sheriff and the tax collector (everyone involved in this process) that this is a serious issue where we have things that we are trying to implement but we need their support,” a commissioner said.

Summer is when boat owners try to earn extra money through extracurricular activities, said the commissioner.

“There’s obviously a problem, and the county is losing out on tax dollars and on licensing and everything else,” the commissioner stated.

Dana Point’s new harbor manager has an open door policy.

By Nina K. Jussila DANA POINT — Shannon Levin stepped into her new role as manager of Dana Point Harbor on June 9, after spending the previous nine years at Newport Beach’s Harbor Resources Division. She fills a new role created

by O.C. Parks, roughly one year after Orange County reorganized harbor operations and did away with an independent Harbor Director.

Levin, as Dana Point Harbor’s manager, says she seeks to serve the local boating community with an “open ear in fairness and transparency.”

Getting to know everyone in the community – all the boating organizations, stakeholders, yacht clubs, businesses and recreational operations – is Levin’s approach to being transparent.“I think that boating and public access in the harbor is something very special. It’s my job to give the public the best resources that [O.C. Parks and I] can. I want people to see me as a resource – as one of their agents.” Levin stated.

O.C. Parks has been overseeing Dana Point Harbor since May 2016.

“With O.C. Parks stepping in and my new appointment, I think we are looking at a new phase and a new paradigm down here,” Levin said. “We want to make this a really amazing destination for our boaters, visitors and commercial tenants.”

Levin also said she takes public safety very seriously. Together with Harbor Patrol, they are here to educate people on the water and to encourage people to recreate in a safe way.

“Dana Point has had some issues with stability and consistency,” Levin did say. “I’m here to listen, and I want to provide consistency and stability for the community.”

She did not elaborate on what elements of Dana Point Harbor’s operations she considered inconsistent or

unstable. Nonetheless several interesting developments transpired at the South Orange County waterfront during the past few years.

An Orange County Grand Jury reviewed constant delays associated with the Dana Point Harbor Revitalization Plan and reported its findings in 2014.

A portion of the report stated “a culture of leave well enough alone” existed among county employees and officials.

A brighter spotlight was shone on the harbor nearly two years later, when then-Harbor Director Brad Gross resigned shortly before county officials released the first of four audits of waterfront operations.

Orange County finally hired Shannon Levin as the new manager for Dana Point Harbor. Levin previously worked with Publication of the three boaters in Newport Beach and hopes to provide a sense of stability in Dana Point as the harbor will soon endure remaining county audit reports revitalization. and the Harbor Department’s merger into O.C.

ists seeking to deflate a tradition they say harms wildlife.

Critics call the balloons litter that poses a deadly threat to fish, birds and other animals, as well as hazards to power lines.

Their efforts are contested by The Balloon Council, a trade group based in Trenton that represents balloon manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors and retailers.

The Balloon Council was founded in 1990, around the time activists in New Jersey first tried to ban balloon launches in the state, and has spent more than $1 million in the past five years lobbying against balloon regulations nationwide.

The group is again lobbying against a measure proposed in the New Jersey

The Log • July 14 - 27, 2017 • 11

Senate to ban the balloon launches, arguing that efforts have been based on rumor, inaccurate news reports and “expert” assertions and would have severely limited consumer’s rights.

“We take the issues seriously, but educating retailers and consumers is the best way to go,”’ said Dale Florio of the Princeton Public Affairs Group, a lobbying group that represents the council. Banning launches, he said, unfairly hurts small businesses.

California, Connecticut, Florida, Tennessee and Virginia have laws that ban or restrict launches, as do some U.S. cities.

At least two communities in Australia and one in the United Kingdom also impose restrictions. Four towns at the New Jersey shore – Atlantic City, Ventnor, Margate and Longport – passed bans this year, and

environmental groups have lobbied others to join in.

Many utility companies have spoken out, arguing balloons can cause power outages when they hit electric lines. And the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s website includes photos of birds and a turtle that died after choking or being strangled by balloon pieces and strings.

“The paint (on the balloons) will wear off over time, and become transparent,” said Cindy Zipf, executive director of Clean Ocean Action, a New Jersey-based environmental group.“Marine life often mistake balloons for their natural prey, such as jellyfish, and the balloons can block their digestive systems of animals, causing a long and painful death.”

The group’s annual beach sweeps have

picked up thousands of mylar and latex balloons in recent years, Zipf said.

Balloons Blow, a nonprofit organization based in Jensen Beach, Florida, is a sharp and frequent critic of the Balloon Council.

It has led the push for outright bans, citing dangers to animals and an increase in recent years of single-use plastic causing marine pollution.

The group says people should consider eco-conscious alternatives – such as reusable banners, flags or pinwheels – instead of balloon launches when they stage public events, while those seeking to honor a departed loved one can plant trees or create gardens.

They and other environmental groups say many people mistakenly believe latex balloons are biodegradable.

Re: Will California’s boaters and drivers successfully revolt against gas tax hike? (June 16-29 issue)

Unnecessary gas tax The gas tax is a real boondoggle. The state seems to funnel it to other programs the same way that the FEDs do with Social Security.

Anthony Schuck

Same old story Originally the gas tax was passed to build and maintain roads, bridges. The legislature then decided it would be of more, and better use to put it in the general fund… it was used for welfare, it was used to fund calpers, it was used for everything but roads. If Jerry Brown gets his finger in this pie, it will again be used for everything but roads. I’ve even heard that he already has plans to divert a portion to fund legal representation for undocumented individuals.

As for other sources, they always threaten schools, emergency services to be cut if they don’t get their way. Is anyone else tired of hearing that?

ground storage tanks at Berth 31 in 1985. A petroleum leak was discovered at the tanks roughly seven years later.

Los Angeles officials repaired the leak shortly after discovery.

Odors from the leak were detected at a restaurant located inside the Doubletree Hotel at Cabrillo Marina.

“The source of the contamination was found to be the piping connection to the 10,000-gallon gasoline [underground storage tank], which had shifted over time causing a leak,” port staff stated.

The leaked tank would be part of the excavation process, port staff stated. Also to be removed are electrical utilities, fuel dispensaries and all other infrastructure associated with the three underground storage tanks.

Additional excavation of chemically impacted soil might also be necessary, port staff stated.

“Based on available information (e.g., previous investigations and monitoring reports), it is estimated that a volume of approximately 700 tons or 518 cubic yards of contaminated soil could potentially be present in an approximately 1,600-square-foot area adjacent to the tanks,” port staff stated.

“These additional potential construction activities under Phase II of the proposed Project could require an additional 15 days of construction.”

Soil excavation and removal would require at least 29 truck trips – with another 29 truck trips necessary to perform the subsequent landfill, according to port staff.

“During the 3-day excavation period, it is anticipated that there would be a maximum of 10 truck trips per day; however, during the two-day backfill and soil compaction period, there could be as many as 15 truck trips per day,” an official report of the planned excavation stated.

There are no immediate plans to repurpose the area once the tanks are removed.

“Following the completion of contaminated soil excavation and any other additional remediation activities, the area would be backfilled and repaved with asphalt consistent with the existing parking lot material and grade,” port staff stated.

The Board of Commissioners approved the excavation project, without discussion, as part of its June 15 consent calendar.

Cabrillo Marina is one of 15 waterfront venues at the Port of Los Angeles.

The marina is home to a Doubletree Hotel, Los Angeles Yacht Club, office and retail spaces, boating slips, banquet and meeting halls, and parking spaces.

L.A. Harbor area boaters had lost a fuel dock at Cabrillo Marina in December 2015, when Cabrillo Marine Fuel Dock abruptly shut down and stopped servicing vessels. The fuel dock shut down due to an ability to keep the storage tanks up to code. The dock’s operator stated he would’ve needed $14,000 to keep the underground tanks current.

Copper loads at San Diego’s Shelter Island have already been reduced by 40 percent. The reduction must reach 76 percent by 2022.

Port of San Diego enters final phase of copper reduction mandate Copper levels at Shelter Island Yacht Basin, already reduced by 40 percent, must meet 76 percent reduction by 2022.

By Parimal M. Rohit SAN DIEGO — Reducing the copper load at Shelter Island Yacht Basin has been progressing according to plan, Port of San Diego staff told commissioners, June 20. Meeting the regional and state water quality board mandates in the final five years of the basin’s Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) program, however, could prove to be the most difficult stretch of the mandated 15-year process.

A regional water board order called for the port district to reduce copper loads at Shelter Island Yacht Basin by at least 76 percent by 2022, according to a TMDL program update at the June 20 Board of Port Commissioners meeting.

Port district staff informed commissioners the quasi-judicial agency had met its 2017 goal to reduce copper levels at Shelter Island Yacht Basin by 40 percent, when compared to 2007 levels.

The 40 percent reduction mandate was the third phase of a four-stage TMDL compliance schedule established by the regional water quality board.

Stages 1 and 2 began in 2007 and 2012, respectively; the TMDL compliance schedule only required a 10 percent reduction in copper by 2012.

The fourth and final stage begins in 2018 and continues through 2022; the port district must have achieved a 76 percent reduction in copper pollution at Shelter Island Yacht Basin by 2022.

“Due to the efforts of the boaters, the marinas and our staff we’ve been able to meet both the 2012 and, so far, the 2017 targets. But … the last few years have leveled off some, which means if we’re going to get to the final compliance period, more efforts will be necessary,” Holman said.

Commissioners commended port district staff for meeting the 2017 mandate for copper reduction, but acknowledged compliance with the 76 percent reduction goal could prove to be the most difficult phase of the TMDL program.

“Our best management practices on boat cleaning, our legislative outreach on paint, I think we’ve done a number of things to get the number to where it’s at today,” Commissioner Dan Malcolm said. “That last portion is going to be very difficult.”

The port district proposed building a new draining and piping system, or culvert, to help meet the 76 percent mandate in the final two years of the TMDL program.

Building a culvert would cost the port district about $6.5 million, according to official documents – which prompted Malcolm to ask whether installing a new drain and pipe system would achieve the 76 percent copper reduction mandate by 2022.

“We need to do more analysis,” Holman told commissioners, adding the $6.5 million expenditure for a culvert would be initiated in 2021 and allow the port district enough time to determine whether the new infrastructure would help meet or exceed the 76 percent mandate ahead of the 2022 deadline.

Port district stated water quality is tested annually and vessels are monitored for conversions from copper to non-copper hull paints.

The TMDL program, in an effort to reduce copper levels, is made up of five concurrent elements: policy development and legislation; testing and research; hull paint transition; education and outreach; and, monitoring and data assessment.

“Our programmatic approach has been to stay adaptive and learn as we go,” Karen Holman, a principal with the port district, said. “We stay the course and continue building on our previous efforts with a long-term focus of implementing effective solutions.”

The EPA awarded the port district a grant in 2008 to study copper paint alternatives. One year later the port district began using only non-copper paints on its entire fleet of vessels.

A statewide mandate prohibiting certain new or currently registered antifouling copper paints on recreational vessels is set to go into effect July 1, 2018.

Anti-fouling copper paints for commercial vessels would be exempted from the prohibition.

Former dock-and-dine destination could become public nuisance if not torn down, port district argues.

By Parimal M. Rohit SAN DIEGO — What goes up must come down – only to make way for something else to go up again in its place. Such a cycle is playing out at the Port of San Diego as the Board of Commissioners approved a plan to demolish a once-popular seafood restaurant well in advance of the construction of a new group of eateries at the same location.

The port district specifically seeks to demolish the former Anthony’s Fish Grotto structure, which is currently vacant and fenced off, in order to avoid the development of a public nuisance on the San Diego waterfront.

Demolishing the vacant building, port district staff stated, would be necessary regardless of planned redevelopment opportunities on the project site.

“The [port] district has longer-term public safety and health concerns about leaving the vacated building ‘as-is’ including the potential creation of an attractive nuisance, possible trespassing and criminal activity at the

site and the structure’s disrepair,” port district staff stated in a report to commissioners.

Port officials are seeking the permit to demolish the former Anthony’s Fish Grotto site after The Brigantine, a local restaurant group selected to build a new set of restaurants on the waterfront site, apparently decided against going forward with its own demolition plans.

“At this time, The Brigantine is no longer proposing demolition of the existing structures,” port district staff stated. “Anthony’s refused to perform the removal of the existing structure and opted to leave the existing strucA vacant Anthony’s Fish Grotto has the San Diego port district looking to have the former seafood restaurant demolture in place.” ished before it becomes a nuisance.

– Lazarus

By Nina K. Jussila Notable boats — sail and power —continue to turn heads in Southern California harbors. In this feature, The Log looks at one particular classic boat.

Boat name: Lazarus Length: 42 ft.

Beam: 12 ft.

Year Built: 1960

PHOTO CREDIT

The Back Story: This classic wooden boat went by a different name (Halaski) at one time. The previous owner was unable to care for her, and his sons were not interested in the 1960 Matthews boat. Due to neglect, she became a derelict boat and the marina ended up with her. Carl Earhart and Martha Forero were looking for a project when they came across an ad on craigslist.org.

They went to the marina in Wilmington. When they saw the boat, they noticed she was in bad shape. The engines didn’t run, and she was falling apart. Forero made an offer below asking. Based on the poor condition of the boat, Earhart made an even lower offer which was accepted. Had they not purchased the boat, Earhart and Forero learned later, she would have been scrapped. The purchase was made three years ago.

Restorations: Once the boat was purchased, Earhart spent time working on the boat. With a background in General Motors, Earhart was able to replace the batteries and fix the GM Detroit diesel engines. After replacing the batteries, the engine would turn over but not start.

Earhart knew it was a fuel problem, so he pulled the fuel

system apart. For three weeks, he worked on cleaning and fixing the fuel system until he was able to get start the engine. However, once the engine started, a huge plume of smoke caused a massive cloud in the marina. Earhart began working on the boat again replacing fuel injectors and other motor parts. The engine got fixed, the hull repaired and the paint stripped down to the natural wood. Then the boat was refinished and varnished.

What’s in a Name: People kept declaring the boat was dead and brought back to life. Coming from a religious background and people saying he resurrected the boat, Earhart named the boat Lazarus.

Interesting Features: The galley has a full-size refrigerator. The compartment appears as if it was designed for a larger refrigerator. The cabin has two twin beds separated by a built-in dresser. Earhart added some modifications to the boat. He redid the upper helm deck with a

teak tile. Under the main awning, he has a switch which illuminates the whole vessel in blue light.

Future Plans: Earhart will keep tinkering with the boat.

Both Earhart and Forero plan to take the boat to Catalina Island with their 17-foot 1975 Witchcraft in tow, so they can anchor Lazarus and race around the island with the Witchcraft. They are looking forward to new adventures in their old boat.

Boating Apps: How do you Navigate the Mobile Minefield?

By Nina K. Jussila CALIFORNIA — As a boater, it is important to know the weather window.

Checking the weather forecast is what boaters and sailors do prior to going out to sea. Having the best boating apps loaded onto your cellular phone or tablet is also a good plan.

In today’s world, so many resources are literally at boaters’ fingertips these days. With all the technology out there currently, boaters can access radio, internet sites and mobile applications.

Marine forecasts are available on NOAA’s National Weather Service website at weather.gov/marine. NOAA also has a national weather hazards listing all the radio frequencies at nws.noaa. gov/nwr. Both are great resources for mariners.

A mobile application – or app – can also be beneficial to boaters as a resource for weather, traffic and much more.

Several apps are obviously on the market; a few of them are sampled here to give you a perspective of what might be of interest before going out on the water. Some of the apps listed are free and some require a fee to purchase.

Weather and Wind There are many ways to check the weather forecast, but weather can be unpredictable at times and suddenly change. Being alert for weather updates is always beneficial.

Navionics provides information on weather, tides, currents, nautical charts, port plans, marine services and more.

WINDY is an app for sailors and other water sport enthusiasts providing wind, wave and tide forecasts as well as a hurricane tracker. Wisuki and Boating Weather are a couple other weather apps with information on wind, waves and tides.

For those who want to be notified when the conditions are optimal, check out the app called Sailing Weather.

This app allows you to indicate your ideal sailing conditions, and an icon pops up when the weather meets your conditions.

PredictWind may also be a helpful app providing wind forecast. The description on the app itself claims to be the top choice for sailors, and local sailor and sailboat owner Sage Marie agrees.

“My favorite wind app is PredictWind because it aggregates data from a few sources, and the wind mapping is super easy to read and understand,” Marie vouched.

As a backup to the chartplotter, Marie also uses the Garmin Blue Chart app. This app wirelessly transfers weather data to your chartplotter.

Traffic Just as roadways get congested with cars, waterways can also get clogged with vessels. Drivers have the app called Waze to help avoid traffic. Boaters have an app called MarineTraffic to assist with navigating congested waterways.

“I find the MarineTraffic app really helpful when visibility is poor or when there’s a lot of shipping traffic,” Marie stated. “I came up to [Los Angeles] from Newport in zero visibility and scanning between the radar, chart plotter, and MarineTraffic on my iPad gave us all the info we needed.”

Route Plan Letting the people close to you know where you are planning to go in your vessel and your timeline of your departure, arrival and return is always a good plan. In case of an emergency, rescuers will have an easier time finding you, especially if you are alone.

Float Plan EZ! is an app to help you keep your loved ones informed of where you are, when you have arrived at your destination and when you have departed to head home.

Similar apps, such as BoatSafe Free and Skipper also allow you to log your course as well as share your cruising or sailing route with others.

Another app called iNavXp not only can log your route but also provides

Boaters can load up their mobile devices with helpful applications.

The number of boating-themed applications available on your phone will continue to increase as technology becomes more advanced. There are a number of things these applications can do for you, such as warn you of impending bad weather, help you tie knots or direct you to the nearest pumpout station.

marine charts.

You can plan your route and save your favorite locations on Embark. This app also provides nautical charts as well as the ability to search for marinas, anchorages, fuel pumps and beaches.

Community An app provided by American Sailing Association is Go Sailing. This app is similar to Facebook but for the sailing community. Create a profile and a sailing event to connect with friends and make new ones.

Sailing & Boating Community is another online community app for recreational boaters and sailors. The app also includes a classified section for those looking to buy a boat or looking to work as a crew member.

Races For those who participate in sailing races, there is a countdown app. Race Master Sail Timer will help you stay on track during your next regatta.

Another app for sailors is the tack X. This app tracks wind as well as sailing time and distance.

TracTrac provides GPS monitoring of all kinds of races, including sailing, so you can follow your favorite competitions.

Pumpout Stations Wondering where a pumpout station is as you cruise in unfamiliar waterways? Check out the Pumpout Nav app to locate a station near you and to report any pumpout that may not be working properly. Even if you are not sure where you are exactly, the app will determine your location as long as you are along the California coast.

Log Looking for a way to keep track of all your boating maintenance, fuel and expenses? Boating Suite is a complete boating log book to input and save all that information.

Boat Ramps Boat Ramps is an app that provides the location and directions to marinas

and boat ramps throughout the United States.

Many states including California also have a specific app to locate boat ramps. California Boat Ramps & Fishing Ramps provides locations and directions based on the city and zip code you enter as well as photographs and maps.

Additional Resources Boater’s Pocket Reference is a guide encompassing all aspects of boating.

The app covers information about navigation (using radar, sonar, charts and GPS), communication (using VHF, SSB and satellite), weather, rules of the road, time zones and conversion tables.

This app also includes mechanical and electrical information as well as lines and knots.

If you want to learn more about knots, Knots 3D provides instructions on how to tie a quality knot.

The United States Coast Guard app provides a great deal of important information and resources. With this app, you can check a state’s boating laws, navigational rules and weather. With this app, you can also request a vessel safety check as well as report marine pollution or hazards. A float plan can be created with this app and shared with loved ones.

One Click Boating provides information on boating laws, services and safety. The app is also a resource for boat ramp locations. Boaters are also able to check weather and create a float plan with this app.

Another all-encompassing app about boating is The Practical Encyclopedia of Boating. The informative mobile guide provides information about boat handling, navigation, maintenance, design and more. This app is a resource for both powerboating and sailing.

Whether the boat is connected through WiFi, cellular or satellite to access the mobile applications, having basic navigations skills as a backup in case technology fails is always a good idea.

Please note, not all mariner applications have been included in this article, nor is The Log endorsing any of the apps listed. Many more apps are available especially those specific to a geographic location.

Dock Lines With Capt. Nicole Common sense boating behavior Story and photos by Capt. Nicole Sours Larson

Did these vessels have enough PFDs for everyone on board? And what would have happened to those people on the bow if the boat had hit a heavy wake or rogue wave? They might well have been pitched overboard. Please use common sense and keep passengers well away from danger zones.

Other common courtesy points: Please remember that sound carries more strongly over water, whether loud voices, music, cell phone conversations or machinery. Most marinas set 10 p.m. as the start of “quiet hours,” but please be respectful of others throughout the day as well as at night.

Please return dock carts to their designated areas as soon as you’re done with them. Too many boaters treat them as their personal property, leaving them by their boats when others need them.

Now that we’ve enjoyed and survived the most exuberant of summer boating holidays, the Fourth of July, it’s timely to remind everyone of a few basic tips that make boating and marina living more harmonious, happier and safer.

Let me start with a pet peeve: boaters who run their radars in the marina.

Exposure to a pleasure boat’s radar is generally low dosage and does not pose immediate harm – though the exposure risk might increase, it could be argued, if a large number of boaters simultaneously run their respective radars while in a marina.

There isn’t any evidence directly linking yacht radars to actual health risks, but it’s still advisable to turn your radar on after leaving your marina and off as you return. Make sure your radar is mounted high overhead above your main helm. If your radar is mounted lower, for example, in front of your bridge, you could be exposing you and your passengers, but you’re also losing a portion of its useful coverage since the boat’s superstructure Running your radar in the marina exposes fellow boaters to unnecessary doses of radiation. Turn your radar on only after leaving your blocks its aft “vision.” marina and turn it off as you return.

Be super-cautious using stand-up paddleboards – and be sure to supervise anyone using them in waterways.

This weekend we experienced a near-tragedy as several kids were romping on their paddleboards in a fairway while a large powerboat, with restricted visibility at the waterline, was returning to its slip, operating under steerage speed with limited control. Nearby, the captain of another powerboat decided to reverse its position to back out of his slip.

Fortunately, both captains were paying attention and avoided both tragedy and collision. The kids were clearly unaware of their A boat owner left these stand-up paddleboards on a finger pier, impeding his neighbor’s use of the dock and creating danger and continued to play, a trip hazard. while the parents, drinking on the fantail of their boat, thought the situaDon’t force others to chase down dock tion was funny. carts.

By Parimal M. Rohit CATALINA ISLAND — A group of people on a guided tour of Catalina Island’s interior heard their guide tell them most people come to Avalon seeking to get away from Los Angeles. The problem with such a notion, he said, is Avalon – and the whole of Catalina Island for that matter – is fully enveloped within Los Angeles County. So while people might believe they are getting away from Los Angeles, they really aren’t out of the (urban) woods, so to speak.

Of course Avalon, and the island in general, feels as if its more than 22 miles away from the U.S.’s second largest metropolis. Less than 5,000 people live on the island full-time, and while a steady wave of tourists might make portions of Catalina feel cramped and crowded, there are still plenty of opportunities to create some wide-open personal space.

Catalina Island is obviously a major draw for Southern California’s boating community, with boaters from San Diego to Santa Barbara navigating across the channel to dock or drop anchor at Avalon Harbor, Two Harbors or any of the smaller coves and landings in between. Boaters, once docked or anchored, have the gamut of activities to explore on the island – assuming they actually want to get off their boat.

Two Harbors, for example, continues to be a destination for camping, fishing, hiking and kayaking, among other outdoor activities. A new resort was recently introduced to the remote West End of Catalina Island, giving visitors an opportunity to experience a slice of the

South Pacific lifestyle at Two Harbors.

Meanwhile a new “elevated” experience was recently added near Descanso Beach, where boaters and island visitors can experience Catalina’s interior while walking high among eucalyptus trees.

Those who enjoy hiking on the island would be pleased to know there are extended trails within the interior, providing more opportunities to explore Catalina’s diverse natural resources by foot.

Food aficionados might want to visit Avalon in September, when a local Mexican restaurant will be hosting its annual Hatch Chile Festival.

Avalon, being the island’s “hustleand-bustle” destination, remains the go-to for modern amenities and activi-

ties. The city is home to several events, hotels, restaurants and shops, giving visitors the option to do anything from enjoying a fancy meal on the beach to relaxing at a spa to taking in some culture at the local museum.

Hundreds of flying fish have been seen according to one local boat captain.

By Nina K. Jussila CATALINA ISLAND — When fish fly, they actually propel themselves out of the water and glide through the air to flee their predators – unlike when pigs fly (a figure of speech referring to the impossible).

Flying fish, a true phenomenon, have returned to Catalina Island this summer after having dropped in number of sightings the last couple years. Hundreds of flying fish are seen nearly every night, according to Capt. John King of Afishinados Charters.

“Probably one of the best years on record,” King told The Log. King attributes the warmer water to

the increase in flying fish around the island.

A flying fish might actually end up on a boat especially on a windy night, King mentioned. If someone is lucky enough to get hit by one, King gives the passenger a free t-shirt. No one has gotten hurt by a flying fish, King assured.

King offers flying fish tours aboard Catallac Wednesday through Sunday, 8-9:30 p.m.; Catallac averages 30 passengers each night.

Flying fish are officially back in Catalina Island

Flying Fish near Catalina Island were becoming a thing of the past in recent years, but the unique species have made quite the comeback in 2017. Island visitors can experience the flying fish phenomenon aboard local charters.

Catallac take passengers to the location where flying fish are most abundant. Catalina Island Company offers a 50-minute tour aboard a larger boat.

“We’re the little guy that does the big trip, and the Island Company is the big guy that does the little trip,” King said.

Flying fish tours are seasonal and can be booked until mid-September. By the end of summer, divers begin to enter the water for lobster season making it too dangerous for the charter boats to go to those same areas.

Flying fish may only be 18 inches in size, but this fish can travel as fast as 37 mph underwater and “then takes to the air, sometimes reaching heights [of up to 4 feet or higher] and gliding long distances, up to 655 feet,” as stated on the National Geographic website.

Catalina’s less populated community is a popular destination for camping, hiking and mooring.

By Parimal M. Rohit TWO HARBORS —Two Harbors is so small a town it makes nearby Avalon – a city with no traffic lights and a strict quota of automotive vehicles within city limits – appear to be a hustling, bustling metropolis. The easy-going vibe and slower pace of Catalina Island’s West End, however, does not mean Two Harbors is a bore of a destination.

One of the smallest communities in Los Angeles County is home to several activities, such as camping, fishing, kayaking, hiking, snorkeling and scuba diving.

The latest addition to Two Harbors is Harbor Sands, which features a South Pacific theme with its rustic palapas for rent. Palapas can fit up to eight people and include refreshments, beach towels and lounge chairs. Food and beverage service from nearby Harbor Reef Restaurant is available from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. (not available during winter months).

Those interested in a little sport can indulge in a bout of disc golf. Discs are available for rent from Two Harbors Dive and Recreation Center, which is located at Two Harbors Pier. Take your discs and scorecard to the south end of Buffalo Park, where you’ll find the first hole. Disc golf is available year-round; a gold set costs $5 per hour of $15 through closing time.

Visitors can arrive at Two Harbors by boat, but there is a way to travel from Avalon to the island’s only civilization on the West End by land: Safari Bus. Safari Bus, which stops at Little Harbor, Airport-in-the-Sky and the trailhead at Black Jack Junction, operates daily and is an ideal way to view the interior while traveling from one end of the island to the other. Call 310510-4205 for pricing information and for hours of operation.

Banning House Lodge is the one public accommodation on the island, featuring 12 guest rooms and styled as a lodge. Call 800-446-0261 or visit VisitTwoHarbors.com for information or to make reservations.

Boaters who anchor at Two Harbors can come to land by shore boat. The service is available year-round from Cherry Cove, Fourth of July Cove, Isthmus Cove and the anchorage.

Moorings are also available at the isthmus. Contact VHF Channel 9, call 310-510-4253 or visit VisitTwoHarbors. com to reserve a mooring Upcoming events at Two Harbors include the Jimmy Walker “Buffalo Chip” Toss (Sept. 2); Microbrew Festival (Sept. 9), Buccaneer Days

(Oct. 5-8), Thanksgiving “Island Style,” (Nov. 23) and New Year’s Eve (Dec. 31). Call 310-510-4249 or email lboutillier@scico. com for more information about upcoming events.

Harbor Sands, disc golf, outdoor activities dominate at Two Harbors

Boaters have several options when it comes to mooring or anchoring at Two Harbors – Catalina Island’s quieter, “slower” town.

Kayaking is one of several outdoor activities boaters and other Two Harbors visitors can engage in while visiting Catalina’s West End.

One of Avalon’s oldest hotels is expected to complete its property update by 2020.

By Parimal M. Rohit AVALON — One of the oldest hotels in Avalon will have an updated look by the start of the next decade, as Hotel Atwater plans to renovate its property during the next three years.

Renovations are expected to be complete in 2020 – coincidentally in time for the hotel’s 100-year anniversary; the 91-room hotel opened its doors in 1920.

Plans call for the addition of meeting facilities and a lobby restaurant-bar. All rooms would also be renovated.

Hotel Atwater was part of the larger Atwater Building, which was designed

by Pasadena-based builder David Malcolm “DM” Renton. He was also the mastermind behind other Catalina properties such as Mt. Ada, Wrigley Memorial and the Casino Ballroom.

Both the hotel and building as a whole were named after William Wrigley, Jr.’s daughter-in-law, Helen Atwater Wrigley.

A blog post on VisitCatalinaIsland. com stated Hotel Atwater was geared toward tourists on a budget.

“The Hotel Atwater was built to attract a more budget conscience customer in contrast to the elegant Hotel St. Catherine, which was located where Descanso Beach Club is today,” the blog post stated. “It also offered a much more convenient location, a

block off the water in the middle of Avalon.”

Also included in the Atwater Building were a cafeteria and a shopping area. The collection of storefronts is now known as the Shops at Atwater. An official post office is also based in the Atwater Building.

The planned upgrade will come with a heavy price, however, as the property update will result in the closure of Mr. Ning’s, Catalina Island’s only Chinese restaurant.

Hotel Atwater is located at 120 Sumner Avenue; it is about one block away from Avalon Harbor and the Green Pleasure Pier.

Catalina Island’s interior has been managed by one of the nation’s largest land trusts since 1972. The Catalina Conservancy’s stewardship covers more than 42,000 acres on the island.

Catalina Conservancy celebrates 45th anniversary Land trust organization has managed vast majority of the island since 1972.

By Parimal M. Rohit CATALINA ISLAND — One of the oldest and largest land trust organizations in Southern California is celebrating its 45th anniversary this year, commemorating about five decades of managing and preserving Catalina Island’s diverse ecosystem and natural resources.

Catalina Conservancy, founded in 1972, manages more than 42,000 acres of the island; the acreage makes up 88 percent of the island’s land. Its mission is to be a “responsible steward” of Catalina Island “through a balance of conservation, education and recreation.”

The island itself, according to the Conservancy, is home to more than 60 animal and endemic plant species, making Catalina a “biological hotspot.”

The Conservancy facilitates many of Catalina Island’s outdoor activities beyond Avalon, such as the Jeep Eco Tours.

NatureWorks, meanwhile, is an educational program where Conservancy

staff informs visitors of Catalina Island’s biodiversity, geology and cultural history.

Visitors can also attend the “Last Friday” lecture series at the Avalon Nature Center beginning in the fall.

Various lecturers will present at the series and talk about the island’s native tribes, wildlife conservation and camping techniques.

In October the Conservancy will host the second-ever Halloween in the Garden event at Wrigley Memorial and Botanic Garden.

Preservation and restoration are also major themes, as the Conservancy continues its work on protecting the islands natural landscape and biology through the Catalina Habitat Improvement and Restoration Program, or CHIRP. Perhaps the proudest moment for the Conservancy this year was the upgrade of the Catalina Island fox from endangered to threatened species. The island fox was on the verge of being lost entirely in 1999 due to an outbreak.

However the Conservancy, with help from the Institute for Wildlife Studies, helped restore the fox’s population to pre-outbreak levels.

Outdoor lovers will have an extra 27 miles of trails to explore on Catalina Island, thanks to Catalina Conservancy’s extension of its Trekking Catalina Initiative.

Catalina Island Conservancy extends hiking trails

By Parimal M. Rohit CATALINA ISLAND — Hikers will have new paths to explore on Catalina Island, thanks to the addition of 27 miles of hiking trails as part of a new initiative to give outdoor enthusiasts more land to cover beyond Avalon.

The Catalina Island Conservancy announced it would be opening a 27-mile stretch of hiking trails as part of its Trekking Catalina initiative.

“These trails enhance our existing trail network and will allow guests to explore new sections of the interior,” Conservancy staff said in a released statement.

The Conservancy, in all, maintains more than 150 miles of hiking trails, including the 37-mile Trans-Catalina Trail.

A hiking app is available from the Conservancy’s website (catalinaconservancy.org) to guide the island’s hikers.

Hikers can also trek the Garden-to-Sky Hike, which starts at Wrigley Memorial and Botanic Garden before traversing along Divide Road and taking people up a “comfortable” incline. An admission fee is required at the botanic garden in order to access this path. A hiking permit is also required and can be obtained at the Conservancy store in Avalon, botanic garden, Nature Center at Avalon Canyon, Airport-in-the-Sky and Two Harbors Enterprises.

Contact the Conservancy at 310-5101445 for more information about hiking permits and trails, including cost, access and locations.

William Wrigley introduced long distance swimming competition to Catalina

By Parimal M. Rohit CATALINA ISLAND — Long distance swimming might not be the most efficient mode of transportation across the Catalina Island. Competitive long distance swimming, however, was both a means to draw attention to the island and part of a larger craze during the height of William Wrigley’s foray into Southern California.

The chewing gum magnate sponsored Wrigley Ocean Marathon in 1927, a few months after New Yorker Gertrude Ederle became the first woman to cross the English Channel.

Of course crossing the Catalina Channel would be a slightly longer course – 22 miles from the Isthmus/Two Harbors to Palos Verdes Peninsula, compared to the 21-mile trek across the English Channel.

The media coverage of Ederle’s transchannel swim in the summer of 1926, according to the official Catalina Island tourism page, had motivated Wrigley to host a long-distance swimming event of his own. Hosting such an event out of Catalina Island could help bring added publicity to island, Wrigley hoped.

More than 100 men and women would ultimately sign up and compete in Wrigley’s event, which started at the Isthmus and featured swimmers navigating across the channel to Point Vicente 22 miles away.

The ocean marathon began Jan. 15, 1927. Only one person would finish –

17-year-old Canadian George Young. The Toronto native completed the swim in 15 hours and 44 minutes, earning him the winnertake-all cash prize of $25,000.

“The swim drew thousands of spectators including those waiting on the bluff of Point Vicente,” a post on the Island Company’s blog stated about Wrigley Ocean Marathon. “Originally he had offered Miss Ederle $10,000 to swim the channel alone but then decided to open the swim to all. Many of the contestants were William Wrigley, in an attempt to market Catalina Island to the masses, hosted the first and only ocean marathon at the Isthmus. not true swimmers but A Canadian teenager was the only person to complete the Wrigley Ocean Marathon, which covered 22 miles of ocean between were attracted by the the Isthmus and Palos Verdes Peninsula.

12 and 19 feet in length). Competitors can only use their hands to propel them through the water – though the elements (wind, currents, swells, marine life, etc. would certainly play a factor).

The Catalina Classic Paddleboard

Race is the oldest such competitive event of its type. A paddleboard crossing out of Catalina was first achieved in 1932 – the same year Los Angeles hosted the Summer Olympic Games. Completing the crossing in a little less than six hours was

Tom Blake; he paddled his way to the finish line ahead of his two closest competitors, Wally Burton and Pete Peterson.

A former L.A. County lifeguard (Bob Hogan) made the event an official race in 1955. Since then a smorgasbord of accomplished paddlers competed in the Catalina Classic Paddleboard Race, including Hogan, Kemp, Aaberg, Mike Bright, Mike Doyle, Ricky Grigg and Joe Quigg, among others.

Grigg reportedly won the inaugural 1955 race in 8 hours, 27 minutes.

Manhattan Beach’s Max First, 27, won last year’s Catalina Classic Paddleboard Race, finishing ahead of the pack in 5 hours, 19.4 minutes and reportedly aboard his 18-foot, 4-inch paddleboard. It was his second victory in three years. There were 93 participants in last year’s race.

Hogan, the race’s founder, passed away in Orange County in 2015; he was also known for launching Hogan Boatworks and helming Discovery, a 50-foot charter yacht.

Sailors between ages 8 and 15 will compete in this year’s Dutch Shoe Marathon, which starts at La Playa Cove and navigates through San Diego Bay to the finish line at Glorietta Bay in Coronado. The event is also open to seniors but has three dedicated classes to junior sailors.

San Diego Yacht Club hosts Dutch Shoe Marathon for junior sailors Distance dinghy race promotes summer sabot sailing in San Diego and Glorietta Bay.

By Parimal M. Rohit SAN DIEGO — Junior sailors are expected to compete against each other on the water as the 48th annual Dutch Shoe Marathon comes to San Diego and Glorietta bays on July 21. The distance dinghy race from San Diego Yacht Club to Coronado Yacht Club is also open to senior sailors.

Nearly 150 sailors hailing from vari-

ous Southern California yacht clubs participate in the annual sabot race.

The race’s distance will be the longest its junior sailors – many of them between age 8 and 15 – would sail in any competition, according to organizers.

Sailors start at La Playa Cove and navigate down San Diego Bay toward Coronado’s Glorietta Bay. After crossing the finish line there the race’s competitors will celebrate the Dutch Shoe Marathon with an awards ceremony at Coronado YC. In all there will be four classes of competition: Sabot A, Sabot B, Sabot C and Senior.

Jake Mayol of Bahia Corinthian Yacht Club claimed first place honors in 2016, with Samantha Gardner of San Diego YC finishing second overall; Newport Harbor YC’s Morgan Pinckney finished third.

The race is named after the logo design, which resembles a Dutch shoe, found on the mainsail of an 8-foot pram.

First race begins at noon and is expected to take three to four hours to complete. Recommended onshore viewing areas are at Shelter Island, Seaport Village and Glorietta Bay. Registration begins at 9 a.m., followed

by a skippers meeting at 11 a.m. and safety check at 11:20 a.m.

Online registration is $40 and includes a t-shirt and food and drink at Coronado YC; the registration jumps to $55 after July 15.

H.L. Enloe’s ORMA 60 wins Division 0 and establishes a new multihull mark.

By Parimal M. Rohit HONOLULU — There’s no debating Mighty Merloe’s record-breaking finish in this year’s Transpac race will be one for the ages. What is left for debate is whether the new multihull mark for fastest Transpac time will be mentioned alongside other seemingly unbreakable competitive sport records, such as Cal Ripken, Jr.’s consecutive games played streak or the Boston Celtics’ run of 11 championships in 13 years.

H.L. Enloe’s Mighty Merloe, a trimaran, reached Honolulu’s Diamond Head a full day ahead of the previous record finish for a multihull, giving her first-place honors in Division 0.

Transpac acknowledged her record finish in a July 10 post on Twitter.

One-design competition draws competitors from 14 countries, including Australia, Brazil and China.

By Parimal M. Rohit LONG BEACH — Alamitos Bay Yacht Club will host about 20 dozen competitive sailors from 14 countries in the middle of summer as the Zhik 29er World Championship Regatta comes to Long Beach, July 27 to Aug. 5.

The 17th edition of the world championship regatta will feature all-men, all-women and co-ed teams competing for trophies for top overall winner and best youth team.

About 250 sailors from 14 countries are expected to populate this year’s field of competitors. Participants will be hailing from Argentina, Australia, Brazil, British Virgin Islands, Canada, China, Czech Republic, France, Great Britain, Ireland, New Zealand, South Africa and the United States.

The United States alone is expected to have 40 or more entries in the regatta, according to organizers. Most of those teams are likely participating in Alamitos

Bay YC’s sailing clinic, held July 25-28.

San Francisco was the last U.S. city to host the 29er World Championship Regatta, doing so in 2005.

Australian world champion sailor Julian Bethwaite designed the 29er, a 14.5-foot long lightweight one-design, in 1998.

Competitive sailors often race the 29er before moving up to higher sailing classes.

The event’s opening ceremony will be held July 30, with qualifying races taking place July 31 to Aug. 2. The regatta’s final series begins Aug. 3 and will run through Aug. 5.

All races will be held offshore unless wind conditions exceed 20 knots per hour – in which case the regatta will be held in waters within the federal breakwater.

Each series (qualifying and final) will be made up of 10 races.

Racing will be monitored and officiated by judges from Australia, Brazil, Canada, Mexico and New Zealand. Spectators can monitor the race on TracTrac (tractrac.com).

All racing can also be viewed from a spectator boat, which is $20 per person, per day; the fee includes lunch and beverages.

The spectator boat has a capacity of 20 people; advance sign-ups for the spectator boat is available online at 29erworlds.org.

Event sponsor Zhik is an Australian sailing apparel manufacturer.

Changes in store for 2018 season of Pac52 Class Coastal races added to next year’s schedule, which runs May 4-Sept. 30.

By Parimal M. Rohit STATEWIDE — Short “Coastal Races” and Windward/Leeward Buoy Racing format will be new features of the 2018 Pac52 Class season, it was recently announced.

The new format would help simplify organization of next year’s races, while coastal races are expected to keep Pac52’s sailors on their toes with some added variables.

Each of the five Pac52 regattas would dedicate one day to Coastal Races and two to three days to Windward/Leeward

Buoy Racing. Coastal Races would be scored heavier and factored into the final results of each regatta.

The Pac52 Class is made up of five boats– Fox, Invisible Hand, BadPak, Rio and Beau Geste.

San Diego Yacht Club will kick off the 2018 season with the Yachting Cup, May 4-6. Cal Race Week, hosted by Cal Yacht Club, will be held June 1-3, followed by Long Beach Race Week (Long Beach Yacht Club), June 22-24.

The season finishes with Rolex Big Boat Series, Sept. 13-16, and Pac52 Cup, Sept. 28-30; St. Francis Yacht Club hosts both events.

Southern California fishing news

By Parimal M. Rohit SACRAMENTO — Recreational fishing advocates certainly hope this year’s efforts to change California’s angling licensing system from a calendar to 12-month cycle would save them from pop culture’s clichéd definition of insanity.

California’s anglers revisited past attempts to reform the state’s fishing license policy, this year hoping for a different result. State Sen. Tom Berryhill’s proposal – Senate Bill 187, or SB 187 – might or might not have enough momentum to actually make it to Gov. Jerry Brown’s desk before the end of July.

The Assembly’s Appropriations Committee is expected to review SB 187 during a July 19 hearing. Recreational fishing lobbyists hope there is enough committee support for SB 187 to give it the votes it needs to make it to the governor’s desk for approval.

Of course Berryhill’s previous proposal also made it out of the State Senate in 2015. Senate Bill 345, known as the Sportfishing Stimulus Act of 2015, stalled in the Assembly and fizzled away before the end of the 2015-16 legislative session. SB 345 also proposed shifting California to a 12-month fishing license cycle.

SB 187 was approved May 31 by the State Senate and forwarded to the Assembly shortly thereafter. The Assembly’s Water, Parks and Wildlife Committee unanimously approved the bill nearly one month later, setting up the Appropriations Committee’s consideration of SB 187 in late July.

Previous efforts to reform California’s fishing license policy were stunted by questions of implementation and revenue impact.

“The issues raised in the past have been questions about an implementation challenge with the transition to an Automated License Data System (ALDS) for hunting and fishing licenses; how fishery report cards, and validations would be tracked; and what the impacts

of this change would mean for DFW revenue,” the most recent legislative analysis of SB 187 stated. “The ALDS is now in place as opposed to when previous efforts to shift to a 12 consecutive month license occurred.

“As far as the ALDS system is concerned, the question moving forward with this policy is, how long it would take to transition the ALDS to a 12 consecutive month license and what the cost of that shift would be,” the legislative analysis continued. “According to the DFW it would take approximately one year. The bill would allow for two years for the DFW to transition to a 12 consecutive month license.”

The legislative analysis added 12-month fishing licenses were implemented in Arizona and Utah, potentially placing California at a competitive disadvantage.

“California’s fishing license program has proven too costly and antiquated for consumers, and this is evident by an unprecedented decline in fishing license sales. It is time to embrace change and adopt policies that aim to stimulate greater license sales, partici-

pation and economic activity,” the legislative analysis stated. “Fish and wildlife management agencies across the country – including western states such as Arizona and Utah – have successfully transitioned to 365day fishing licenses with great success.”

California’s Urban, inland and offshore anglers across the state hope California adopts anglers, should SB a 12-month fishing license system. Here, a youth angler learns to fish at MacArthur Park in Los Angeles.

Tight lines — By Parimal M. Rohit Commission transparency bill earns approval of Senate Committee What’s Up: The State Senate’s Committee on Natural Resources and Water unanimously supported Assembly Bill 1337 (AB 1337), June 27, setting up the proposal to be considered by other Assembly members during the current legislative session.

AB 1337, which would require a video recording of every public meeting of California’s Fish and Game Commission and its committees to be posted on the commission’s website, was approved by the State Assembly more than two months ago.

“The use of live webcasts, with or without interactive programs, to broaden public participation among those California residents who are not present at the meetings is a timely matter for many California agencies,” a legislative analysis of AB 1337 stated.

The bill specifically aims to require broadcasting of Wildlife Resources Committee, Marine Resources Committee and Tribal Committee meetings.

“The authors argue that the size of California makes it dif-

ficult for the average citizen to attend the committee meetings for Marine Resources, Wildlife Resources, or Tribal issues, and that live webcasts of all meetings would promote public participation,” the most recent legislative analysis of the bill stated. The authors further state that, ‘this lack of transparency undermines the purpose of the meetings, which is to encourage public participation and oversight of the Commission.’”

Bottom Line: AB 1337, if passed by the State Senate and signed into law by Gov. Jerry Brown, would help expand access of all Fish and Game Commission meetings – whether the full commission or its committees – to the public, regardless of whether they can attend a meeting in person.

The commission currently spends $9,700 to broadcast its two-day meetings live; one-day live broadcasts are $5,800. AB 1337 would require 13 more oneday meetings be broadcast (and later archived) for public viewing.

Pride and Bass

By Parimal M. Rohit NEWPORT BEACH — Anglers boarding fishing expeditions out of Davey’s Locker are having their pick of calico and sand bass. Western Pride, for example, went out on a half-day fishing expedition, June 28, and targeted calico and sand bass. The 35 anglers aboard reeled in 112 calico bass to 6 pounds, according to Western Pride’s Capt.

Mike.

“Fun fishing on half days and extended threequarter-day limited load trips of late,” Capt. Mike said.

“Half-day trips have been catching lots of calico bass and/ or sand bass depending on the fishing areas. Monday night’s twilight trip [June 26] out of Davey’s Locker got into the sand bass with 26 anglers catching 87 sand bass. There have also been some white sea bass caught in the same areas as the bass along with some barracuda but not in large numbers yet.”

SACRAMENTO — Anglers were dealt a blow in late June, as Gov. Jerry Brown signed off a state budget calling for the Lifetime License Trust Account.

SALTWATER OCEAN FISHING REPORT

By Terrence Berg 976-TUNA.com SAN DIEGO TUNA UPDATE: The tuna and yellowtail bite for the San Diego overnight and longer boats have been tough this past week with generally dismal scores and many boats falling back on bottomfish. There continues to be a pick on a few bluefin and more and more yellowfin, even dorado showing in the counts, but the bite has been tough. The scores tell the story.

Pacific Queen out of Fisherman’s Landing had 33 anglers on its 1.5-day trip on July 2 and landed three bluefin. Prowler, also out of Fisherman’s, had 12 anglers who landed two bluefin on July 2. The July 1 trip with 35 anglers produced four bluefin, three yellowfin and three yellowtail.

Constitution out of H&M Landing on a 2.5day trip returned July 3 with 24 anglers on board landing one bonito, two bluefin, two yellowfin, two dorado, and 12 yellowtail.

Tribute out of Seaforth Sportfishing on a 1.5-day trip on July 4 with 27 anglers returned with 110 rockfish, 25 whitefish, 15 sheephead and two lingcod.

SAN DIEGO THREE-QUARTER DAY UPDATE: The three-quarter-day boats out of San Diego are now split between running offshore and focusing on the local bite.

Running offshore looking for tuna, Liberty out of Fisherman’s Landing had 22 anglers on July 4 and landed just one yellowfin tuna. With the same number of anglers, the same result was

reported for July 3, but on July 2, the 18 anglers on board had six bluefin.

Daiwa Pacific out of H&M Landing ran a three-quarter-day offshore trip on July 3 with 30 anglers and managed just three yellowtail.

Staying local, Point Loma out of Point Loma Sportfishing had five anglers on its July 4 three-quarter-day trip and landed 50 rockfish, 20 keeper calicos (along with releasing over 100 shorts), five sand bass, one sheephead, one sculpin, and one bonito. The July 3 trip with 20 anglers was nearly as good with 20 anglers landed 51 keeper calicos (more than 150 released), 31 rockfish and three sand bass.

CLEMENT AND CATALINA UPDATE: The bottomfish action has been salvaging most of the trips to San Clemente and Catalina islands during the first week of July. While there has been a pick on the yellowtail (up to about a fish per rod on some trips) and the odd white sea bass, the bite has been tougher.

Thunderbird out of Davey’s Locker had 26 anglers on the July 3 overnight trip and landed 88 rockfish, 47 whitefish, 26 keeper calicos, 20 yellowtail and one white sea bass. The July 2 trip with 27 anglers had a similar score with seven yellowtail and one white sea bass put on the boat, in addition to 129 whitefish, 109 rockfish, nine sheephead, and eight keeper calicos.

Freedom out of 22nd Street Landing had 43 anglers on an overnight to Clemente and landed just one yellowtail, along with 347 rockfish, 128 whitefish, 18 lingcod, six sheephead, and one keeper calico bass. New Del Mar out of Marina del Rey Sportfishing had 91 anglers on a July 4 half-day, and even with that mob, there were 201 rockfish, 112 whitefish, 11 keeper calico bass, five keeper sand bass, five sculpin, and one sheep-

head put on the boat.

Toronado out of Pierpoint Landing had a 1.5-day trip, and the 25 anglers on board landed limits of 250 rockfish, 80 whitefish, 55 sheephead, 50 lingcod, six yellowtail and two barracuda.

At Catalina, Pursuit out of 22nd Street Landing had 53 anglers on its full-day trip on July 4 and landed 92 yellowtail, 60 bonito, 35 calico bass, five sheephead, four barracuda, and three sculpin.

LOS ANGELES-ORANGE COUNTY LOCAL NEWS: The nearshore bite along the Los Angeles and Orange counties’ coastline has been generally fair to good with a mix of bottomfish, bass, and sculpin.

For example, City of Long Beach out of Pierpoint Landing had 65 anglers on its July 4 half-day and landed 135 sculpin, 20 whitefish and five keeper calicos.

landed 63 white sea bass (limits) and two halibut on July 2. Since then, the bite has slowed. The Dawn returned from a two-day trip on July 4 and the 18 anglers on board landed just two white sea bass and a pair of halibut along with near-limits of 340 rockfish, 69 lingcod, 24 whitefish and eight sheephead. Pacific Eagle had 21 anglers on its July 3 full-day trip and landed two white sea bass and one yellowtail, in addition to limits of 210 rockfish, 27 whitefishing, seven keeper calico bass, seven barracuda and one lingcod.
