Proposal would duplicate efforts to financially assist environmental groups, according to top executive. By Parimal M. Rohit SACRAMENTO — A proposal to require California’s legislature to provide grant funds to qualified environmental organizations for emergency responses to marine mammal and sea turtle entanglements was vetoed by Gov. Jerry Brown, Oct. 10. Brown, in his veto message of Senate Bill 290 (SB 290), explained the State Senate proposal was duplicative and efforts to fund emergency responses of marine life entanglements are already appropriated through the state’s budgeting process. “Our recent budgets have provided funds to the [Karen C. Drayer Wildlife Center at the University of California, Davis] for the purposes outlined in this bill,” Brown said in his veto message. “This is a fiscal question that is best addressed through the budget process instead of a standalone bill.” State Sen. Hannah-Beth Jackson introduced SB 290 in February; the bill
cleared the State Senate by a 31-9 vote in May. Assembly members approved SB 290 by a 60-15 vote in early September. Existing law, save for federal exceptions, already makes it unlawful to take marine mammals. Fisheries are mandated to “reduce incidental mortality and serious injury to marine mammals,” according to a legislative analysis of SB 290. More than $3 million was already allocated to the Drayer Wildlife Center in the previous two fiscal years to administer emergency responses through its Marine Mammal Stranding Network. Jackson’s bill would have required grants to be issued on an emergency basis only; any use of funds to cover operating expenses would have been prohibited. Qualified organizations, defined in Jackson’s proposal as a member of the National Marine Mammal Stranding Network or Large Whale Entanglement Response Program, would specifically be allowed funding “to offset costs resulting from marine mammal or sea turtle entanglement or stranding emergency response activities,” according to a legislative analysis. Federal grants for such emergency
response activities were cut by 75 percent in 2013, according to a State Senate analysis of SB 290, resulting in funding shortages. Data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), however, indicates the Senate Bill 290, which proposed to require ensure funding for emergency entanglements responses to whale and sea turtle entanglements through California’s legislative and stranding process, was vetoed, Oct. 10. Gov. Jerry Brown, in his veto message, said such of whales and funding is already part of the state’s budgeting process. sea turtles have resulted in death. “NOAA data show numerous shortly after SB 290 was introduced, [stranding events] and entanglements stated whales could suffer from dehyresulting in sea turtle deaths for multidration, drowning and starvation as a ple federally endangered or threatened result of entanglements. sea turtle species for 2012-2017,” a She added anyone who spots an legislative analysis of SB 290 stated. “In entangled whale, sea turtle or other addition, there were 61 whale entangle- life form should contact the NOAA ments in fishing gear off the U.S. West Fisheries hotline at 1-877-SOS-WHALE Coast in 2015.

A floating vessel full of felines AMSTERDAM — Amsterdam is known for many interesting attractions from cannabis cafes to notable canals. The Netherlands capital is also known for floating homes. One particular floating structure, strangely enough, is just for felines. A flat-bottom vessel, called The Catboat, is a sanctuary for owner-relinquished and stray cats in Amsterdam. “The Catboat is the only animal sanctuary that literally floats,” states the website for the non-profit organization – called the “Cat Boat Foundation” in English.
NEWS BRIEFS NATION/world Yachtsman Paul Cayard warns of increase of plastic waste in oceans MILAN, Italy (LOG News Service) — A life on the seas, including two circumnavigations of the globe, has given U.S. yachtsman Paul Cayard a first-hand view of the increase of plastic waste in the world’s oceans. Cayard said Oct. 3 at a forum on preserving oceans that over his 50-year sailing life, including seven Americas Cups and seven world championship titles, he has witnessed everything from plastic bags caught on racing boats on the high seas to refrigerators

and sofas floating in the bay off Rio de Janeiro. On a recent race from Los Angeles to Hawaii, “half the boats had problems with plastic getting stuck on the keel, and they either have to stop and go backward to get it off, or send someone overboard,” Cayard said. While it is frustrating from a racing perspective, he said the bigger issue “is just how bad this is for the planet.” The One Ocean forum aims to bring together interested parties to tackle how to preserve the marine environment. Promoted by the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda on the Italian island of Sardinia, partners include UNESCO and Milan’s Bocconi University. Francesca Santoro, an oceanographer in UNESCO’s ocean-
ography commission, said few people are aware that the oceans generates half of the oxygen we breathe through the same process of photosynthesis on phytoplankton that occurs with plants in forests. “The ocean is something that is not visible. We only see the surface. We don’t think about the deep ocean,” she said. The amount of plastic in the oceans remains a huge issue, with over 8 million tons of plastic entering the seas each year, 80 percent from land, she said. Tackling that means sensitizing people to avoid one-use plastic, including bottles and straws, and lobbying companies to stop using plastic where other materials can be substituted.

Marvels in the Middle East David Rizzo traveled to Beirut, Lebanon in September. “People were very friendly, and I felt very safe wherever I went,” Rizzon said. The Beirut Marina had about 100 boats. “All but two were power boats,” Rizzon stated. “You’d think they had a lot of oil in that neck of the woods.” He also journeyed approximately 11 miles north of Beirut to a place with remarkable caves in Jeita Grotto. Two connected caverns form the longest cave in the Middle East with 25-foot limestone pillars hanging from the cave’s ceiling, “about the length of a decent day sailor,” Rizzon mentioned.

New law creates panel to attract sailing events to state
Marine, 24, is first woman to lead amphibian platoon
PROVIDENCE, Rhode Island (AP) — A new law will create a permanent state commission aimed at helping attract national and international sailing events to the state. The law passed last month and signed Oct. 5 by Democratic Gov. Gina Raimondo creates the Rhode Island Sailing Events Commission. The panel is expected to identify, evaluate and provide recommendations to assist nationally and internationally recognized sailing and marine events. It will also advise state and local leaders on the practicality of hosting qualified marine events in Rhode Island. Co-sponsor Rep. Kenneth Marshall, a Democrat, names the Volvo Ocean Race’s 2015 stopover in Newport as one of many successful sailing events that have taken place in the state. A report commissioned by Sail Newport estimated the race’s economic impact at more than $47 million.
SAN DIEGO (AP) — A 24-year-old Marine based in California has become the first female officer to lead an assault amphibian vehicle platoon, the U.S. Marine Corps said. With her parents looking on, Second Lt. Mariah Klenke made history on Oct. 3 as she graduated from the Assault Amphibian Officer Course at Camp Pendleton. “We cannot overlook the historic nature of this day,” Col. Dan Yaroslaski told the seven graduates and their family, friends and instructors at the ceremony. “We have set the standards every Marine has to pass. There has been no distinction between male and female.” Klenke, from southern Illinois, was the first woman to enter the course after the Pentagon lifted its ban on females in combat roles in 2015. She says she was never treated any differently from her male counterparts during rigorous training on land and at sea. The most difficult part of the 12-week course, she said, was a one-week training of amphibious operations at the Beach at Camp Pendleton. There, she and her classmates practiced ship-to-shore movement and inland operation doing four missions a day. “We operated on two hours of sleep,” she said. Klenke will be assigned to command a platoon in the next few days, according to the Orange County Register. “The Marine Corps is our job but it’s also our life,” she said. “I want to make their job fun so they put their heart and soul into it.” Klenke’s first duty station will be with the 3rd Assault Amphibian Battalion with the 1st Marine Division. “She’s always been one to go above and beyond,” said her father, Darrell Klenke.

Speedboat fetches $75K at auction of Kennedy-era memorabilia NEW YORK (AP) — A mahogany speedboat that belonged to John F. Kennedy sold for $75,000. Kennedy used the 17-foot (5-meter) speedboat, a 1961 Century Resorter, when he was at home in Hyannis, Massachusetts. The nautical history starts with family patriarch Joseph P. Kennedy Sr., who had a boat named Tenovus, a reference to the number of Kennedy family members at the time: “ten of us.” Later, when he won the speedboat in a church raffle, it got the name Restofus, a nod to the “rest of us” in the expanding family. That became JFK’s personal boat. After the nation’s 35th president died, the boat went to his brother, Edward M. Kennedy, and then to other owners.

Will “Recreation Not Red-Tape Act” set tone for recreational boating access? Senate bill aims to increase outdoor opportunities on federal lands; what can state and local jurisdictions learn? By Parimal M. Rohit NATIONWIDE — An Oregon senator believes red tape is obstructing outdoor enthusiasts from pursuing recreational opportunities on federal lands and waters. Time will tell whether Sen. Ron Wyden’s proposal will gain enough traction to ultimately benefit boaters in Southern California and across the nation. The Democratic senator from Oregon proposed S. 1633 – known as the “Recreation Not Red-Tape Act” – in late July. National Marine Merchants Association (NMMA) President Thomas Dammrich co-authored an Op-Ed in The Hill about 70-some days after the bill’s introduction, urging senators and representatives to support – and eventually approve – S. 1633. Dammrich (and his co-writers) identified outdoor recreation as part of the country’s national heritage. The Op-Ed stated S. 1633, if approved and signed into law, would modernize how national public lands are managed. Such modernization, the writers argued, would ultimately
“improve the outdoor recreation experience.” “[The Recreation Not Red-Tape Act] aims to reduce barriers to outdoor recreation access, and improve public land management for Americans who enjoy recreation pursuits of all types,” Dammerich’s co-authored Op-Ed in The Hill stated. “Public lands offer many exceptional opportunities for outdoor recreation, but too often unique or exceptional settings for outdoor recreation are not formally recognized in land use planning. “This legislation, including its system of National Recreation Areas, will identify and protect landscapes where sustainable outdoor recreation should be a priority use for jobs, local economies and quality of life,” the authors continued. Wyden stated public access to recreational opportunities could sometimes be more of a chore than something enjoyable – hence his proposal. “Getting outdoors often requires permits, parking passes and camping fees that are important to help maintain public lands, but too often involve confusing, complicated and lengthy processes. This bill removes barriers to outdoor recreation, making it easier for more Americans See STANDING WATCH page 7

Fast Facts: Motor boating at the Olympics By Parimal M. Rohit LONDON — Many sporting events have come and gone from Olympic lore – baseball and softball, for example, were once short-lived competitions during the Summer Games. Did you know motor boating once made an appearance in the quadrennial event? The event was officially listed as “water motorsports” during the 1908 Summer Games in London and consisted of three events – 60-foot race, 8-meter race and Open Class. Few details are available on the official Olympics website, but two countries won the competitions: Great Britain and France. France claimed gold in the “Open Class A – Men’s” competition, while the sailing tandem of Bernard Redwood and Thomas Thornycroft finished first place for the British in the 60-foot
and 8-meter races. The website sports-reference.com noted two Great Britain challengers did not finish the Open Class A – Men’s competition, allowing France to be the sole medalist. Redwood and Thornycroft also earned gold in their respective events due to a lack of any other competitor crossing the finish line. The motor boating competitions were all held in Southampton, Great Britain, Aug. 28-29, 1908. Water motorsports was not an Olympic event at the next competition in Stockholm, Norway – though equestrian dressage and tug-of-war were official sports during the 1912 Games. Rowing and sailing, interestingly enough, were also Olympic events in 1908 and 1912.

to get outdoors – enjoying its benefits and generating jobs,” Wyden stated in a published summary of S. 1633. The federal bill proposes to expedite the permitting process for recreation guides, promote outdoor access to seniors, youth and veterans, require improved landscaping and maintenance of public lands, and direct agencies to prioritize recreational opportunities. S. 1633, if ultimately signed into law, would only be applicable to federal lands, but there are certainly elements of the proposal recreational boaters and anglers would like to see implemented in California. Bureaucracy is often the go-to complaint for any issue involving the Department of Fish and Wildlife or Division of Boating and Waterways. California’s current fishing license system, for example, has long been a source of frustration for anglers up and down the state. Many anglers believe bureaucracy and politics have prevented California officials from moving forward with what they believe is common sense fishing license reform. The Recreation Not Red-Tape Act, it could be argued, might provide the
framework to address the bureaucratic barriers facing fishing license reform. The state’s boaters are also a few weeks away from being required to carry what effectively functions as a boating license. Division of Boating and Waterways staff will be rolling out the Boater Education Card during the next few years. The card is intended to foster and promote safe boating practices, to be sure, but it’s fair to ask whether the bureaucracy associated with the program’s administration might actually make it more annoying or difficult to be out on the water. Would Wyden’s proposal open the door for California’s boaters and anglers to demand greater efficiency in its many boating- and fishing-themed initiatives and policies? The questions above – and certainly many more – won’t be answered immediately, but Dammrich and his Op-Ed co-authors certainly believe S. 1633 is a step in the right direction. “The Recreation Not Red-Tape Act offers commonsense solutions that will unite — rather than divide — a growing population of outdoor enthusiasts, and ensure access to sustainable recreation experiences for generations to come,” the co-authored Op-Ed in The Hill stated.

S. 1633 is still in its infancy as the bill is currently sitting in front of its first committee. It could be weeks or months before the proposal comes to a full vote in the Senate, let alone the House of Representatives. Of course the bill might not be voted on at all before the expiration of the current legislative session. Accordingly it behooves boaters, anglers and other outdoor enthusiasts to reach out to their respective elected officials and urge them to either move S. 1633 forward or reconsider it altogether.

Restaurant group moving forward with redevelopment of former Anthony’s location. By Parimal M. Rohit SAN DIEGO — Plans to redevelop a portion of the San Diego waterfront with a new restaurant space took a significant step forward, Oct. 10, as the Port of San Diego’s Board of Port Commissioners unanimously approved a 40-year lease for The Brigantine and its Portside Pier project. The Brigantine plans to erect a new $13 million dining venue – known as Portside Pier – at the previous Anthony’s location. Four restaurants will be featured at the new Portside Pier once it’s built and operational. A dock-and-dine facility accommodating up to 12 vessels would also be featured at the redeveloped restaurant project. Port district staff negotiated a 40-year lease with The Brigantine to operate the new dining venue. The dock-and-dine will be one of the open-to-the-public amenities associated
with the planned Portside Pier project; a second level viewing deck and perimeter walkway are the other two public features. A combination of public-serving amenities and multiple restaurant properties in one location made The Brigantine an attractive developeroperator for the port district’s waterfront redevelopment plans. “As a successful local family restaurant developer and operator, Brigantine demonstrates the best balance of activating the [former Anthony’s] location through increased public access as well as maximizing revenues to the [port] district,” port district staff stated in a report to commissioners. The Brigantine would pay the port district a minimum annual rent of $366,666 in the first year and $733,333 in the second year; the minimum annual rent would jump to $1.1 million for years three through 10. Other rent stipulations include a five percent assessment on food and beverage, and 5.5 to six percent revenue sharing on gross sales. Construction is expected to begin
in early 2018, shortly after demolition work at the old Anthony’s site is completed. Port district staff estimated construction work would be done in about 12 months. The Brigantine has been developing and operating restaurants in the San Diego area since 1969, according to a port district staff report. The Port of San Diego and The Brigantine have reached terms on a Some of its properties long-term lease agreement to operate Portside Pier.

Newport Beach City Council approved lowest bidder for seawall extension project. By Nina K. Jussila NEWPORT BEACH — Construction on Balboa Island’s seawall will begin in November as a contractor has been selected for the undertaking. Newport Beach City Council unanimously approved Bosco Constructors, Inc. for the Balboa Island seawall extension project, Oct. 11, with the exception of council member Jeff Herdman, who recused himself. Balboa Island’s seawall provides a division between waterfront homes and the harbor. Flooding on the island has been an issue during king tide events and storm surges.
Bosco Constructors, Inc. provided the lowest bid for the seawall extension project. The construction bid from Bosco Constructors, Inc. totaled $1,444,444 with $216,000 for contingency costs. “The city received multiple bids for this project and the low bid amount is 3.7 percent below the engineer’s estimate of $1,500,000.00,” the staff report stated. Additional costs in the amount of $93,360 were also approved for the design consultant, COWI Marine North America Inc. The extension project involves adding a 9-inch cap on both the north and south side of Balboa Island’s seawall, as previously reported by The Log. The project, which also includes repairing cracks in the existing seawall, will be implemented in stages in an

A bill in the U.S. Senate to make E15 available year-round was defeated in committee; fuels with 15 percent ethanol and greater is currently limited during summer months.
Attempt to make E15 available year-round fails in Senate What Happened: A federal proposal to make fuel containing higher blends of ethanol available year-round failed to advance from a Senate committee, according to news reports. Senate Bill 517, introduced in March by Sen. Deb Fisher, R-Nebraska, would have allowed for increased availability of fuels with 15 percent ethanol (E15) or greater. Various boating interest groups have long argued marine engines are incompatible with E15 fuel. The Clean Air Act currently places limitations on E15 fuel blends during summer months. E10, or fuel blends with 10 percent ethanol, were exempt from the Clean Air Act limitation. What’s On Tap: S. 517, which was in front of the Senate’s Environment and Public Works Committee, won’t continue through the legislative process, meaning current limitations on E15 would remain in place.
Environmental group targets Dungeness crab fishery in lawsuit What Happened: The Center of Biological Diversity (CBD) announced Oct. 3 it filed a lawsuit against California’s Department of Fish and Wildlife, alleging the state agency is responsible for recent whale and sea turtle entanglements. At least 19 humpback whales, two blue whales and one leatherback sea turtle were reportedly found entangled off the California coast last year, according to CBD’s lawsuit; the Endangered Species Act protects the animals. Any entanglement of a humpback whale or leatherback sea turtle would be a violation of federal law. “Entanglements in ropes connected to heavy commercial Dungeness crab traps cause injuries and death as the ropes cut into the whales’ flesh, sap their strength and lead to drowning,” CBD staff said about the lawsuit filing in a statement. What’s On Tap: The Department of Fish and Wildlife could be found in violation of the Endangered Species Act, if the federal district court determines the state agency is responsible for the recent reports of whale and sea turtle entanglements.

California’ Department of Boating and Waterways provided a grant worth $96,876 to the Port of San Diego to manage surrendered vessels.
Port of San Diego accepts surrendered vessels grant What Happened: The Port of San Diego accepted nearly $100,000 in funding from California’s Division of Boating and Waterways. The port district’s Board of Port Commissioners voted to accept the DBW grant, which totaled $96,876, at their Oct. 10 meeting. What’s On Tap: Port district staff stated the grant, which comes from DBW’s Surrendered and Abandoned Vessel Exchange (SAVE) program, would be used “for the abatement, removal, storage and/or disposal of eligible water hazards and eligible surrendered vessels.” “This grant will provide unbudgeted, unanticipated funding for the removal and disposal of surrendered vessels and other navigational hazards,” port district staff continued. The port district must provide 10 percent in matching funds as part of the grant acceptance.
Avalon authorizes purchases of Harbor Patrol boat engines What Happened: Avalon’s City Council, at its Oct. 3 meeting, unanimously approved the purchase of two replacement engines for Harbor Patrol boats. The current engines, according to city staff, have suffered from excessive use. Patrol Boat No. 4, for example, has been used for about 6,400 operating hours, while Patrol Boat No. 6 recently experienced “failures due to excessive use.” Avalon already replaced engines for Patrol Boat Nos. 1 and 5 within the past two years, according to a city staff report; the replacements cost nearly $46,000. What’s On Tap: Council members approved city staff’s request to hire Avalon Boat Stand to replace the boat engines, as the company has a certified mechanic living on the island, offers a two-year warranty and can deliver on short notice. Avalon Boat Stand, interestingly enough, did not offer the lowest bid; Sunset Inflatables’ quote was nearly $300 less than what Avalon Boat Stand bid. “The difference between the Avalon Boast Stand quote ($16,253.98) and the Sunset Inflatables quote ($15,981.48) is due to the difference in sales tax charged for their selling location,” city staff stated in a report to council members.

SB 187: Questions Abound About Fishing License Bill’s Failure
By Parimal M. Rohit SACRAMENTO — It’s no secret money and politics go together. What remains secretive is how money dictates the policies directly governing our lives. Some questioned whether money was a factor in the sudden demise of a proposal to overhaul California’s fishing license system. No sooner did the bill fail to emerge out of the Assembly’s Appropriations Committee did California’s anglers look to the board’s membership and question why they failed to recommend Senate Bill 187 (SB 187) for passage. Some pondered whether Assembly member Lorena Gonzalez Fletcher, who chaired the Appropriations Committee, had incentive to kill the bill. Gonzalez Fletcher, interestingly enough, represents San Diego, which is one of California’s top destinations for anglers. The Log reached out to Gonzalez’s office and made initial contact with one of her staff members, hoping to gain some perspective as to why SB 187 failed to cross the finish line despite overwhelming support and no known opposition. When asked for an explanation as to why SB 187 was not recommended to move forward out of committee, her office went radio silent; her press representative, Alex Roth, has not yet responded to The Log’s questions. We specifically asked why SB 187 did not make it out of Appropriations despite having no opposition on record or during any stage of voting. We also asked why the bill was killed in Appropriations Committee when five of its members voted in favor of SB 187 while sitting on another committee. Of course there might well be a reasonable answer for why SB 187, which many of its proponents considered to be a common sense proposal, was killed in the Appropriations Committee. The
Log will continue searching for answers beyond this particular story. Readers are also encouraged to reach out to members of the Appropriations Committee and ask questions of their elected representatives. As we pursue our quest for answers, let us look back on how we arrived to today’s current predicament. NWFSC NOAA photo
Shifting to a 12-month fishing license cycle had broad support and no opposition, so why did it fail?
SB 187: A Quick Recap SB 187, had it made it out of the legislature and later signed into law, would have established a 12-month cycle for fishing licenses. All fishing licenses in California expire Dec. 31, regardless of when purchased. The state does not prorate the license fee for later purchases. More than 50 organizations and agencies supported the proposal, according to an Assembly analysis in June. The same analysis listed zero opponents and 3,211 individual supporters. The 12-month license proposal also garnered unanimous support as it moved through the State Senate. Three State Senate committees approved SB 187 by 9-0, 7-0 and 7-0 votes, respectively. All 40 senators voted in favor of the bill when it came to a full vote on May 31. State Sen. Tom Berryhill’s proposal also earned unanimous support – 15-0 vote – in the Assembly’s Water, Parks and Wildlife Committee. Unanimous votes on five occasions and no listed opposition to the bill naturally caused anglers to wonder why SB 187 was held during the late stages of this year’s legislative process.
Appropriations Committee It is common for legislative proposals with a fiscal effect to forwarded to the State Senate’s or Assembly’s Appropriations Committee when it is relatively close to being approved by both houses and forwarded to the governor for signature or veto. SB 187 jumped through all the hurdles in the State Senate, meaning

Anglers and fishing advocacy groups have argued a shift in California’s licensing system from a calendar to 12-month basis would increase angling activity in the state. SB 187, which proposed such a shift, failed to make it out of committee despite widespread support. Who is causing the proposal to be held back?
Assembly support was necessary for it to move forward. The Assembly’s Appropriations Committee, accordingly, was the proposal’s final stop; it would not be voted on by the lower house’s full membership without the committee’s positive recommendation. The announcement of which bills are recommended for a full vote and which aren’t often comes without explanation, so anglers and fishing groups were left in the dark as to why the Appropriations Committee did not recommend SB 187 for a full vote. Gov. Jerry Brown, by comparison, issues a veto message every time he rejects a legislative proposal. The veto message is made public on his website and easily accessible for everyone to see. Each message offers a one- or twoparagraph explanation of what Brown believed to be the bill’s shortcoming(s). Why is such transparency prevalent at the executive level but not with a legislative committee’s decision?
Overlapping Committee Members? The 12-month fishing license proposal, as mentioned above, did not receive a single opposition vote as it moved through the legislature. Of note are the handful of Appropriations Committee members who also sit on the Assembly Water, Parks and Wildlife Committee. At least five Assembly members serve on both committees, which were the final two boards to review SB 187 before it was killed; 17 Assembly members sit on Appropriations, while 15 serve on Water, Parks and Wildlife. All five members who sit on both committees had supported SB 187 when Water, Parks and Wildlife deliberated the proposal. Did those five Assembly members still support SB 187 when it shifted to Appropriations? Perhaps one, some or all of them changed their mind? Or maybe they still supported the proposal but couldn’t convince other Appropriations Committee members to join them in support? Such questions aren’t unreasonable to ask when a proposal moves through the process unopposed but is suddenly killed toward the end without explanation – particularly when some members
on the committee that killed the bill were also on another committee where it was unanimously supported. The five Assembly members, by the way, are Frank Bigelow, Raul Bocanegra, Laura Friedman, James Gallagher and Eduardo Garcia. Bigelow serves as vicechair of the Appropriations Committee. Also sitting on the Appropriations Committee, are Assembly members Gonzalez-Fletcher, Richard Bloom, Rob Bonta, William Brough, Ian Calderon, Ed Chau, Susan Talamantes Eggman, Vince Fong, Adam Gray, Reginald Byron Jones-Sawyer, Jay Obernolte and Eloise G. Reyes.
Organizations and Agencies In Support of SB 187 Among the organizations and agencies in support of SB 187, according to an Assembly analysis of the bill, were: Abu Garcia, Berkley Fishing, CalAsian Chamber of Commerce, California Association for Recreational Fishing, California Association of Harbor Masters and Port Captains, California Chamber of Commerce, California Hotel & Lodging Association, California Parks Company, California Sportfishing League (Sponsor), California Yacht Brokers Association, County of Mariposa, Fred Hall Shows, Greater Stockton Chamber of Commerce, Mammoth Lakes Tourism, Marina Recreation Association, Mono County Fisheries Commission, Orange County Business Council, Oxnard Chamber of Commerce, Penn Fishing, Pure Fishing, Sacramento Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce, San Diego Regional Chamber, San Diego Tourism Authority, San Francisco Chamber of Commerce, San Jose Silicon Valley Chamber of Commerce, Santa Monica Travel & Tourism, Sportfishing Association of California, Visit Huntington Beach and Western Outdoor News.

Port of San Diego, addressing conflict with California Coastal Commission, makes an adjustment to plans. By Parimal M. Rohit SAN DIEGO — The Port of San Diego’s Board of Port Commissioners, at its Oct. 10 meeting, unanimously approved a resolution to modify the scope of Sunroad Enterprises’ proposed hotel development on the east end of Harbor Island. The modification would allow Sunroad Enterprises to move forward with plans to develop a 500-room hotel or up to two additional hotels with 325 rooms, with conditions. Port staff, with the approved resolution, will move forward amending Sunroad’s Exclusive Negotiating Agreement, or ENA. An amended ENA means Sunroad would be able to proceed with its existing entitlement. Modifying the scope of the proposed hotel development does not constitute an approval of the project, according to port district staff. “Any project developed as a result of the amendment would require Board approval,” port district staff stated in its report to commissioners. The modification stems from an ongoing lawsuit between the Port of San Diego and California Coastal Commission. Both agencies have been at odds over plans to develop the eastern end of Harbor Island. Commissioners denied a master plan amendment request by the port district in May, stating the Sunroad hotel project, at the time, was deficient in lowercost overnight accommodations. Plans to build a large-scale hotel development on Harbor Island, as previously reported in The Log, have been quite dynamic. Plans to build a 500-room, one-building hotel were later adjusted to potentially build multiple buildings. Oliver McMillan and Sunroad Enterprises were selected last year to pursue a hotel development on Harbor Island on behalf of the Port of San Diego. Both entities originally sought to pursue the hotel development on their own, but the port district opted to have Oliver McMillan and Sunroad Enterprises work together. Sunroad, if all goes as planned with the approved resolution, would submit a preliminary project description, site plan, cost estimate and financial analysis by Dec. 28. A market demand and feasibility study would then be due to the port district by Jan. 27, 2018, followed by a March 30, 2018 deadline for additional renderings, drawings and site plans. The negotiation period between Sunroad and the port district is set to end June 29, 2018. Plans to build a large hotel project on the east end of Harbor Island would occupy a sizeable stretch of land near San Diego International Airport. The site
primed for Sunroad’s redevelopment plans is or was occupied by an airport taxi staging lot, Avis, Hertz, Lockheed Martin, National Rent-A-Car and the port district’s Harbor Police Department headquarters. Port district staff had looked into redeveloping the eastern portion of Harbor Island for hotel use as early as July 2015. Oliver McMillan and Sunroad were selected to develop portions of the selected site in September 2016. Harbor Island, which is a destination for boaters and travelers out of San Diego International Airport, is home to several restaurants and a few marinas.

Marine fisheries, Martin’s Beach access bills vetoed By Parimal M. Rohit SACRAMENTO — Proposals to allow experimental fishing permits and raise funds for public access to a Northern California beach were vetoed by Gov. Jerry Brown in early October. California’s top executive, however, did sign a bill into law calling for the creation of a Spiny Lobster Commission. The series of vetoes and approvals came as California’s current legislative calendar nears its end; Brown has been reviewing approved bills since Oct. 1.
Senate Bill 42 Brown’s veto of Senate Bill 42 (SB 42) comes at an interesting time. The bill sought to launch a fundraising campaign to help California raise enough money to create an easement through Martin’s Beach near the San Francisco Bay Area – only weeks after a state appeals court ruled the owner of private beachfront property there must allow coastal access to the public. State Sen. Jerry Hill introduced SB 42 in December 2016. The bill specifically proposed to create a Martin’s Beach subaccount, which would collect funds to help create a public access route and right-of-way easement through a beachfront property owned by billionaire entrepreneur Vinod Khosla. Access to a stretch of beach adjacent to Khosla’s property, which is located just south of Half Moon Bay, had been the center of a legal and political battle in recent years. Khosla had blocked access to the coast at his property, demanding the state pay him millions of dollars to re-open the beach to the public. At the heart of the matter is California’s Coastal Act, which has been used to maintain public access to any waterway in the state. SB 42, Hill hoped, would help
address the conflict by allowing the State Lands Commission to use up to $1 million in raised funds to acquire a public easement to Martin’s Beach. Brown’s veto message stated SB 42 limits the state’s options in its quest to provide public access A proposal to authorize the Fish and Game Commission to approve experimental fishing permits was vetoed by Gov. Jerry Brown. to the coast. “As drafted the bill does not meet the author’s intent. fishermen and scientists can collect This bill precludes the use of eminent important scientific information that domain in this instance and limits the they otherwise could not.

law by Brown, Oct. 5. Assembly member Monique Limón introduced Assembly Bill 944 (AB 944) as part of an effort to promote and foster California’s spiny lobster fishery. The new commission, according to SB 944, would offer its members a stipend and “carry out programs of education, public information, promotion, marketing, and research relating to spiny lobster.” “The bill would authorize the commission to levy an assessment … on spiny lobster fishermen … and would authorize the expenditure of those moneys for the purposes of carrying out the commission’s powers, duties, and responsibilities, thereby making an appropriation,” the language of SB 944 stated. An Assembly analysis of AB 944 stated California’s spiny lobster fishery has been managed for more than 100 years and supports commercial fishers and recreational anglers. “The commercial fishery in California extends from Point Conception (Santa Barbara County) south to the United States and Mexico border, and is estimated by the industry to contribute $33 million to $40 million in consumer spending within the California economy,” an Assembly analysis of AB 944 stated. “Currently, the majority of commercial spiny lobster is exported due to high price per pound that can be obtained in China (up to $30/lb.). This has contributed to the pressure to effectively manage the resource.” A new commission, however, would not be formally established until the spiny lobster industry votes for such a body to be created. “The industry believes the unique method of creation of this commission will overcome issues of opposition. Specifically, the vote by the industry, upon chaptering of the legislation, to determine whether or not the commission should be established, is key to mitigating opposition within the industry,” the Assembly analysis of AB 944 stated. “Failure to meet the initial voting requirements would mean that the commission would not be established.”

A dispute between Oxnard and Ventura County over the future development of Fisherman’s Wharf at Channel Islands Harbor must be settled without the assistance of the California Coastal Commission, according to a vote lodged by the quasi-judicial agency in mid-October.
Coastal Commission declines to mediate in harbor and city dispute Channel Islands Harbor department must seek to reach agreement from the city before Fisherman’s Wharf project can proceed. By Catherine French CHULA VISTA — The California Coastal Commission, in a 7-3 vote during it October meetings in Chula Vista, opted not to resolve a jurisdictional dispute between Oxnard and Ventura County over the future development of Channel Islands Harbor. The dispute came down to the question of jurisdiction of the harbor and city. Over the many years of harbor development, the city of Oxnard has allowed projects to move forward, after reviewing each project. In this case, city officials have refused to amend its Public Works Plan unless Ventura County starts over with a city permitting process, stopping the project from moving forward. The parcel of land on the harbor’s east side known as Fisherman’s Wharf has been in severe decline for nearly two decades. The once bustling Cape Cod style property is located at the corner of Victoria Ave. and Channel Islands Blvd. across from Naval Base Ventura County. Investors have come and gone, and the severe recession of 2008 quashed any hopes of a viable project proceeding at that time. The current investor is the third developer in the last ten years to bring a viable revitalization plan to this area of the harbor. “When approved, the 11.4-acre parcel will be completely razed with all new construction including 37,000 square feet of commercial space with about 390 apartments built southward of the retail and commercial space including a park with a snack shop and public restrooms,” Ventura County Harbor Department Director Lyn Krieger said. The harbor director pointed out Oxnard added mixed-use to harbor redevelopment site in its General Plan
six years ago without updating its Local Coastal Plan, or LCP. “We are not sure why the city has not updated its LCP. We have had many meetings about the project, with the fire department and city officials regarding streets, and lighting – the things that the city [provides],” Krieger said. The issue of city versus county jurisdiction was most recently a topic of discussion at Oxnard City Council’s Sept. 12 meeting According to City Council recommendation by city staff, if Oxnard and Ventura County did not enter into a formal agreement by Dec. 31, the city would cease the maintenance of the landscaped portions of parks historically listed as its own parks within the harbor (including certain restrooms). “Alternatively, if the negotiations break down prior to Nov. 1 … then the city would cease this maintenance upon 60 days notice to the county,” the city staff report to council members stated. “While these areas are within the city’s corporate boundaries, the county owns them so the public can expect to see these areas not maintained or watered if the city does not handle these responsibilities. “ According to Krieger, all of the other harbor projects have been accomplished through cooperation with the city during the many years she has been the harbor director. Oxnard officials have asked the harbor to apply for permitting. Currently, the county approves permitting and the Coastal Commission has the sole authority to approve the project. Coastal Commission Executive Director Jack Ainsworth said harbor officials must get Oxnard officials to approve the plan and update the local coastal plan. Commission Chair Dayna Bochco was in agreement with the majority not to involve the commission in this dispute, however she did say that if they need to take jurisdiction they would. She urged the harbor and the city to go back to the table to resolve the issue, and if the city is still not cooperative, the commission will step in.

By Nina K. Jussila MARINA DEL REY — Renovations are underway at Marina Beach in Marina del Rey. Design plans for the area, also referred to as “Mother’s Beach,” include a nautical theme. The configuration of the shoreline and the activities in the water will remain the same, both Carol Baker and Nicole Mooradian from the Department of Beaches and Harbors confirmed. “Marina Beach is located in a back basin with limited boating facilities, so there is very little boat traffic in the area,” Mooradian explained. “Nevertheless, the water at the end of the basin is cordoned off with buoys to keep boaters out.” Baker mentioned the boat docks stop half way down the channel. Baker also said the construction is taking place further from the shoreline. Water activities, such as swimming, kayaking and standup paddleboard yoga, will not be affected. “This is the main launch area for paddleboards and kayaks in the Marina, though everyone participating in these activities must avoid the designated swimming area,” Mooradian relayed. “A designated swimming area remains
roped off from the rest of the basin. There are no plans to change this.” The revitalization of the beach area entails four phases. The first phase involves a facelift for the bathroom facilities. New wall finishes will cover the existing exterior wall. The roof, floor and fixtures will all be replaced as well. Temporary trailers with bathroom facilities for the public have been put in place at parking lot 11. The redesign of the picnic pavilion structures would be the next phase, followed by the promenade. These phases of the plan include new picnic tables, grills and guardrails. New landscaping will be the final phase of the redevelopment project. The redeveloped picnic pavilion will be designed to look like “sails in motion,” Mie Joness, the planning specialist with the Department of Beaches and Harbors, said at the Oct. 11 Small Craft Harbor Commission meeting. “The pavement is colored…textured concrete with this wave-like pattern. It
almost looks like a wave coming in from the ocean into the picnic area,” Joness added. The Design Control Board approved this project on Feb. 17, 2016. A renovated Marina Beach will have minimal bearing on the local boating community, according to L.A. County officials.

Dana Point Harbor Partners tapped as developer to overall aging and dilapidated waterfront. By Parimal M. Rohit SANTA ANA — Dana Point Harbor could be fully revitalized as early as 2023 – about 36 years after Orange County officials began the process to update the dilapidated waterfront. Orange County’s Board of Supervisors, at its Oct. 17 meeting in Santa Ana, elected Dana Point Harbor Partners to move forward with the $250 million revitalization project as part of a public-private partnership. The development firm is the second such vendor Orange County selected to oversee Dana Point Harbor’s revitalization, which was first proposed in 1997. “This project has been in the works for literally 20 years. A decision should definitely be made today,” Supervisor Lisa Bartlett said of Dana Point Harbor, which was built out in the early 1970s. She added the revitalization was intended to be county led project at the outset. Bartlett, however, said she switched the revitalization project to a public-private partnership in an attempt to speed up construction. The revitalization’s footprint was expanded as part of the public-private partnership to include a hotel and other upgrades beyond commercial and waterside components.
The Proposals The two finalists offered varied proposals as to how they’d realize an updated Dana Point Harbor, with one partner – Dana Point Partners – planning to finish construction in 2023 and the other – Dana Point Harbor Partners – scheduling the final nail to be hammered by 2025. Dana Point Harbor Partners proposed a commercial retail component with about 116,727 square feet of rentable space, including marine retail and a surfing museum. Plans also call for Dana Point’s
marinas to include 2,296 slips, 388 dry stack boat storage spaces, valet boater slips, 266 hotel rooms, restaurant and outdoor dining options and 4,880 total parking spaces. The entitlement process would begin in January 2018, with construction planned to run between December 2018 and December 2025. Dana Point Partners’ plan called for 2,316 boat slips, 400 dry dock spaces, 200 hotel rooms, a parking garage and 119,631 square feet of office space and restaurant/retail to be built by April 2023. The Dana Point Partners proposal included a four-year option, compared to a 90-day option request by Dana Point Harbor Partners. Both bidders requested a county subsidy to help them bring the revitalization project online. Dana Point Harbor Partners formally asked for up to $20 million from the county’s harbor reserve funds; the subsidy, according to city staff, would be applied to the construction of a parking structure. Dana Point Partners, conversely, requested a $45 million subsidy to cover the construction of two parking garages, fund circulation improvements and assist in making renovations to sportfishing docks. The $45 million subsidy would also be used to fund tenant lease terminations, a buyout of Vintage Marina and infrastructure improvements. Each bid, of course, did include financial projections of what the revitalized harbor would bring back to the county. The Dana Point Harbor Partners proposal, for example, estimated its development would yield the county in excess of $47 million within the first 10 years of the lease – more than double the subsidy it requested – and an additional $70 million in rent payments in years 11 to 20 ($117.1 million total). Dana Point Partners, by comparison, anticipates $70.5 million in rent payments to the county during the first decade (and a total of $175.6 million over 20 years). “These estimated amounts do not
take into account other factors, including the effect of the requested county financial subsidies, the length of the option terms, the lease structures, and the payment of guaranteed rent versus percentage rent,” county staff stated in its report to supervisors.
The approval did not come without supervisors questioning the county staff report and overall bidding process. At least three supervisors questioned county staff’s vetting process of the bidders. Supervisors Todd Spitzer, Scott Nelson and Andrew Do each grilled county staff over expressed concerns of whether county staff was thorough enough with the vetting process. Each supervisor added they still had several substantive questions about the proposals after reviewing the county staff recommendation. The supervisors said they weren’t able to effectively differentiate between the two bidders, since they had such

widely differing proposals. Boat slip rents, for example, was the single largest source of revenue in one proposal, one supervisor pointed out. Revenue projections and public subsidy requests also were widely apart, when comparing the two proposals. County staff verbally explained to supervisors why the public agency would be walking away from Dana Point Partners’ proposal, which projected greater revenues but potentially included greater risks. Only when county staff addressed what supervisors believed to be procedurally deficient questions did they ultimately vote in favor of electing Dana Point Harbor Partners as the harbor revitalization developer.

Stowaway raccoons are still a concern for Catalina Island CATALINA ISLAND — Inspecting a boat for stowaways before cruising to Catalina Island is more important than one might think. Onboard one’s vessel could be an uninvited passenger – a raccoon. The arrival of a raccoon on Catalina Island tends to be an annual event, according to Catalina Island Conservancy Marine Biologist Julie King. The most recent raccoon arrived in Two Harbors over the Fourth of July weekend, King told The Log. Raccoons are not native to Catalina Island, so they can have a devastating impact on the fox population who have inhabited the island for more than 5,000 years. The Catalina Island fox population suffered when a raccoon was unintentionally brought to Avalon on a private boat in 1999. The raccoon was a carrier of canine distemper, and the highly

contagious virus spread through the fox population on the entire east end of the island. The native island fox was close to extinction. The fox population has since recovered due to the efforts of the Catalina Island Conservancy. “Most of our conservation department was involved in the recovery of the fox led by Julie King. She took a population from under 100 to now [more than] 1,400,” Catalina Island Conservancy President and CEO Tony Budrovich stated. King advised boaters to thoroughly check their vessel, including all sails where raccoons like to crawl up and sleep, to ensure the masked mammals are not aboard before heading to the island. King also recommended boaters, who discover a raccoon aboard while crossing the channel, head back to the mainland and call a pest control company to have it removed. “It is critically important for the
health of our island and the animals that live here,” King stressed. Call Catalina Island Conservancy if the discovery of the stowaway raccoon is realized upon arrival at the island, King urged, even if the animal jumps overboard. “People also don’t realize that raccoons are excellent swimmers,” King said. The number to call the Catalina Island Conservancy is 310-510-1299, extension 230.

Ventura Port District’s quest for sustainable aquaculture continues Board of Port Commissioners considers federal waters for mussel farm plans. By Nina K. Jussila VENTURA — Anglers, boaters and trawlers in Ventura Harbor and the Santa Barbara Channel might not need to worry about crossing paths with mussel farms, as Board of Port Commissioners are considering moving the potential shellfish operation from state waters to federal waters. The Ventura Harbor Board of Port Commission had been looking into establishing a sustainable aquaculture
industry in Ventura Harbor. A discussion on seven potential locations for mussel farms was held at the Sept. 27 meeting. However, the commissioners came to the realization the mussel farms, if built within the harbor, would infringe on halibut trawling grounds. The Ventura Harbor Board of Port Commissioners met again on Oct. 11 to discuss alternative locations. “At the Ventura Port District’s regular meeting held on Sept. 27, Mike McCorkle – representing the Santa Barbara Trawlers Association – stated that his group would oppose any of the proposed seven locations under consideration within the candidate area,” Ventura Port District Board of Port Commissioners Chair Everard

Ashworth told The Log. “Our objective here at the end of the day is to have a sustainable design located in such a way as to not frustrate existing users,” Ashworth continued. Ventura Port District General Manager Oscar Peña also said the plan is to enhance, not disrupt, the harbor’s commercial fishing industry. Ashworth pointed out three of 10 public workshops on the matter were held specifically to obtain feedback from commercial fishing groups. McCorkle suggested a location closer to shore, according to Ashworth. However, Ashworth said shallow waters would not work, as ducks, which are common in the area, are natural predators of the mussels. “Studies have been underway by the U.C. Bren School using geo-spacial planning tools to identify areas suitable for the long line mussel growing technology proximate to Ventura Harbor,” Ashworth said. The mussel farming project is called Ventura Shellfish Enterprise (VSE). “VSE is a multi-party initiative to permit twenty 100-acre plots for growing the Mediterranean mussel (Mytilus galloprovincialis) via submerged long lines in state waters within the Santa Barbara Channel near Ventura Harbor,” the VSE website stated. The parties involved in this project are “the Ventura Port District, Coastal Marine Biolabs, The Cultured Abalone Farm, and Ashworth Leininger Group,” the website continued. Ashworth, a boater himself for 50
years, said the mussel farms are not even something the boaters would see. The mussel farms would be “40 feet below the water,” Ashworth explained. “Ferry boats go over this technology on the East Coast. Sailboats can race over the top.” The goal, according to Ashworth, is to make Ventura a sustainable harbor. “There’s no way we can continue to feed the world using our traditional methods,” Ashworth stated. “The only way to feed the world going forward is through aquaculture. There’s a substantial body of data to support that statement. California as a general state, we import 98 percent of the shellfish we consume from other places.” Antibiotics and other chemicals are not used in the farming of mussels, according to the VSE website. The Ventura Port District was awarded a $300,000 NOAA 2015 Sea Grant for funding the permitting process of mussel farms in state waters. The scope of the project is estimated to provide “production of [approximately] 20 million pounds of mussels [per] year at full project buildout, with an anticipated wholesale value in excess of $50 million,” the VSE website states. Will VSE come to fruition and establish a sustainable aquaculture? Ashworth and Peña remain optimistic. Both Ashworth and Peña confirmed their strategy is to continue moving forward with the project, shifting the focus from state waters to federal waters, and revising the permitting plans.

SAN DIEGO — Have you taken a boating education class? If not, why? Regular readers know I’m a strong advocate for boater education, including mandatory education. I’m always seeking additional classes to increase my own skills that I can also share with readers. With the new California Boater Card – which requires passing a test – phasing in beginning in January, now is an ideal time to take a class. Recently I returned for a refresher course at San Diego’s Maritime Institute, where I took my original captain’s training, necessary for my five-year license renewal. I’ll admit I was nervous about the exam, recalling all the material that had escaped my brain. Before the class I spent several days immersing myself in every arcane section of the Rules of the Road, and hours reminding myself of the essentials of chart plotting, a necessary skill if you lose access to electronic navigation tools.

California Coastal Commission approves five-month project to clean up sediment. By Parimal M. Rohit CHULA VISTA — The city of San Diego received the green light to remove nearly 63 acres of bay bottom in Mission Bay, Oct. 12, as coastal commissioners approved a comprehensive dredging project during their October meetings in Chula Vista. An estimated 483,880 cubic yards of sediment had accumulated in Mission Bay during a 10-year period between 1997 and 2007, according to California Coastal Commission staff. Coastal Commission staff added the dredging project represents the largest action of its type in Mission Bay history. Dredging the estimated 63 acres of bay bottom, according to Coastal Commission staff, would “improve public access and recreational opportunities in Mission Bay.” “The project would restore the dredged areas to the original design elevation from when Mission Bay Park was first created by the City in the 1950’s. The dredged material will be used for two purposes, to restore beaches eroded beaches on Crown Point Shores and northeast Vacation Isle, and to fill subtidal depressions depleted by
past dredging projects in Sail Bay and Leisure Lagoon,” Coastal Commission staff told commissioners in a report. About 43 acres of the 63-acre dredging project is covered by eelgrass, according to Coastal Commissions staff. The eelgrass is home to sensitive habitat of birds, fish and invertebrates. San Diego officials will plant a new bed of eelgrass in Mission Bay to offset the affected stretch of habitat in the area to be dredged. A city analysis of Mission Bay sediment, conducted earlier this year, revealed about 483,880 cubic yard of sediment had accumulated at the bay bottom between 1997 and 2007. “The sediment accretion was not uniform, but instead concentrated in certain parts of the bay such that the accretion eventually formed navigational hazards. The purpose of the dredging is to remove these hazards and improve recreational boating opportunities in Mission Bay,” Coastal Commission staff stated in its report to commissioners. Dredging activity would begin in November and continue through March 2018, according to Coastal Commission staff. Mission Bay Park is a 4,600-acre aquatic park – with 27 miles of coastline – within the city of San Diego. It is considered one of the largest parks of its kind in the country.

– Dorade By Nina K. Jussila
Boat name: Dorade Length: 52.56 ft. Draft: 8.27 ft. Beam: 10.33 ft. Year Built: 1930
PHOTO CREDIT
The Back Story: Dorade, an 87-year-old sailboat, is not just a classic – she is an antique. Olin Stephens, at the age of 21, designed the sailboat in 1929. The construction of the sailing yacht was completed in 1930 with the guidance of brother, Rod Stephens. The Stephens brothers went on to race Dorade in the 1931 Transatlantic Race against wealthy yachtsmen and celebrated sailors. The two brothers won the race aboard Dorade from Newport, Rhode Island to Plymouth, England with more than a two-day lead. Her conquests continued with additional wins in the sailing circuit in 1933 and 1936. Dorade still has her original name and continues to amaze in sailing competitions around the world. A Campaign for a Champion: Matt Brooks and Pam Rorke Levy purchased Dorade in 2010 and spent a year restoring the Sparkman & Stephens yacht to her original condition. Brooks and Levy then started a “Return to Blue Water” campaign. The goal was to have repeat performances from the 1930s. The campaign exceeded their expectations in the 2013 Transpacific Yacht Race with
improved race times from 77 years ago. Dorade also triumphed in the 2014 Newport to Bermuda Race. Brooks and Levy launched the “Dorade Down Under” campaign in which Dorade is now racing in a series in Australia including the upcoming Rolex Sydney Hobart. Andrea Francolini photo
In this feature, The Log looks at notable boats — sail and power — that continue to turn heads in Southern California harbors.

Melges 20 World Championship/Barracuda Communication photos
22 • Oct. 20 - Nov. 2, 2017 • The Log
Drew Freides – aboard Pacific Yankee with Morgan Reeser and Charlie Smythe – won the Melges 20 World Championship in Newport, Rhode Island. It was Freides’ first world championship as a sailor. He bought his first boat more than three years ago – at the insistence of his mother, who was battling lung cancer at the time.
Yachtsman Drew Freides’ Melges 20 Championship win means the world By Nina K. Jussila NEWPORT, Rhode Island — Drew Freides aboard his boat, Pacific Yankee, along with Morgan Reeser and Charlie Smythe, earned the World’s Championship title at the 2017 Melges 20 competition in Newport, Rhode Island on Oct. 7. The World’s Championship title was a first for Freides and meant more to him than just winning as a skipper on his own boat. Freides, with approximately 40 years of sailing experience, said this was the highlight of his sailing career. Freides’ mother, while in the hospital 3.5 years ago battling lung cancer, encouraged him to buy his own boat. Freides lost him mother to cancer saying this win was for her. “I want to be able to say, ‘Look mom, I’m actually the best in the world at something,’” Freides told The Log. Freides started sailing at the age of seven. His father was a sailor, but his brother did not enjoy it. “My mom’s rule was if he couldn’t take one of us, he couldn’t do it,” Freides said. “I got stuck, and I happened to love it.” Freides’ passion for sailing evolved into an occupation as a yacht designer at Nelson/Marek. He said he enjoyed the job but received advice which changed his career path and ultimately his sailing endeavors. He was aboard a boat he helped design, a 50-footer named Idler, getting ready to race in the Admiral’s Cup. The vessel’s owner, George David,

asked him if he desired sailing his own boat instead of sailing the boats of others. Freides responded he would love his own boat. David then advised Freides to pursue an MBA and a well-paid career. Freides adhered to the advice, went back to school and began a career in finance in order to afford his own boat. The time and money needed to compete in national and world sailing championships are possible factors limiting the number of sailors, Freides mentioned. “At this level of racing, it’s very expensive. It hurts the level of competition, but I don’t know what the solution is,” Freides said. “The whole sport of sailing
has changed in that there’s very much a professional element to it. “I love sailing with pros, because they’re so good and because they make me better. Also, I love beating the best in the world,” Freides continued. “On the flip side, the numbers just continue to drop because of it, I think. I don’t know if it’s a time commitment or the dollars.” Freides said he felt chills down his spine and was near tears when the whole fleet began cheering and clapping for him and his team, just as everyone realized he and his crew would win the Melges 20 World Championship. “What other sport do your competitors cheer for you?” Freides asked hypothetically. “It makes you feel good about winning the right way. It was just a great moment in my life,” Freides added. He attributes the win to having a top team. “I’ve got the best guys and the best coach. I knew I had all the ingredients. I was along for the ride,” Freides stated. Freides resides in Pacific Palisades. He is a member of Storm Trisail, New York Yacht Club, San Diego Yacht Club and California Yacht Club. Freides and his team are representing California Yacht Club in the upcoming Lipton Cup competition and will continue on into the winter sailing series. “My original plan was if I won [the world championship], I was going to sell the boat – not probably thinking I’d actually win,” Freides said. “Now it’s just too much fun. We are going to keep going.”

Nominations now open for U.S. Sailing yachtsman, yachtswoman awards Rolex Yachtsman and Yachtswoman of the Year widely acknowledged as top sailing honor. By Parimal M. Rohit NEWPORT, Rhode Island — One of the most prestigious awards in sailing will be considering applications for its 2017 edition, as U.S. Sailing announced it is accepting nominations for the Rolex Yachtsman and Yachtswoman of the Year. The award recognizes the top individual sailors in the county. Each nominee is generally among the most outstanding sailors of the year and, according to U.S. Sailing, “demonstrated on-the-water excellence at international and/or national events to earn their place in the history of the sport.” Last year’s winners – Caleb Paine of San Diego and Daniela Moroz from Lafayette, Calif. – were both first-time honorees. Paine earned a bronze medal as a
member of the U.S. sailing team at the 2016 Summer Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, while Moroz was last year’s IKA Formula Kite World Champion. Other awardees included Ed Adams, Betsy Alison, Sally Barkow, Dave Curtis, Dennis Conner, JJ Fetter, Allison Jolly, John Kostecki, Buddy Melges, Lowell North, Jan O’Malley, Jane Pegel, Ken Read, Cory Sertl, Lynne Shore, Jody Starck, Anna Tunnicliffe and Ted Turner. Nominations must be submitted by Nov. 30 at rolex.ussailing.org. Prominent sailing journalists from around the world will deliberate the candidates once the nomination period closes and submit secret ballots to determine the winner. The male and female recipients of the award will be announced during a late-February luncheon at New York Yacht Club in Manhattan. Honorees are given specially engraved timepieces, according to U.S. Sailing. U.S. Sailing has recognized the country’s top sailors since 1961. Rolex claimed naming rights of the award in 1980.

Farr 40 Sailing Class announces 2018 racing schedule
John Miller aboard the boat he built, Maui Diamond, for his final time as he donated the boat to the Long Beach Sea Scouts this summer. Miller died on Sept. 16 at the age of 93.
By Nina K. Jussila LONG BEACH — Edward (John) Miller – crewmember in sailing competitions, owner of marine shops, builder of his own boats, and senior member of Long Beach Yacht Club – died, Sept. 16. He was 93. Miller participated in 13 Newport to Ensenada races and four TransPacific races, which included the 1967 TransPac race aboard Queen Mab, a 78-foot schooner. “From a boating perspective, he was a stud,” his son-in-law Drew Satariano told The Log. “He was a really good guy to have on a boat.” Miller established the first marine shop in Naples of Long Beach. Captain’s Locker was his growing marine hardware business. He also built “three boats in his lifetime” to own and not sell, Satariano clarified. A couple of the boats he built were his powerboat, Spare Time, and 62-foot Ferro-cement cruiser, Maui Diamond. “It’s almost inconceivable that one person built that boat,” Satariano said about Maui Diamond, a yacht with three staterooms with the capacity to sleep seven people. Drew Satariano and his wife, Cathy Miller Satariano, wed aboard Maui
Diamond anchored at Moonstone Cove in 1996. Miller often took Maui Diamond to Catalina Island single-handedly up until he was 90 years old, according to Satariano. Miller had the most seniority at Long Beach Yacht Club having joined in 1959. His longevity at the yacht club qualified him to have the biggest and closest slip to the club, Satariano said. The “last seven or eight years have been especially good for him,” Satariano stated, “because he could spend three or four months on the boat in the summer.” Miller donated Maui Diamond to the Long Beach Sea Scouts this summer. The Sea Scouts’ programs educate young people (from the age of 13 to 21) about boating and the ocean. The donation of Maui Diamond has helped to revive the organization as membership was down, according to Satariano, and now the organization has a waiting list. Sea Scouts have ventured to Catalina Island aboard the vessel twice within two months. Donations are being accepted to fund the maintenance of Maui Diamond in honor of Miller.

Southern California fishing news State agency doesn’t have decision-making authority on saltwater conversion plant, but can provide input on marine life effects. By Parimal M. Rohit ATASCADERO — Plans to build a desalination plant continues to be a hot topic among various local, regional and state agencies, so much so that California’s Fish and Game Commission defined the role it played in Poseidon’s quest to build a saltwater conversion plant in Huntington Beach. The commission does not have direct decision-making power, as other agencies have the power to determine whether Poseidon would be permitted to move forward with it desalination plant plans in Huntington Beach. Instead the commission’s involved with the desalination plant is to determine whether, when operational, it would affect local marine life and nearby Marine Protected Areas. “This commission is not playing a role in whether [desalination] should or
should not happen. We’re not ever going to make a judgment on whether it’s a good or bad thing, whether [the plant] should or should not be built. Our focus is on whether or not the construction of a [desalination] plant would have any impact or would take any wildlife,” Commission Chair Eric Sklar said. Susan Ashcraft, a marine advisor with the Fish and Game Commission, said neither the commission nor its associated department has direct permitting authority when it comes to the effect of desalination plants on marine life, but both entities are still involved in the permitting process. Commissioners and commission staff, however, do provide recommendations on how to provide ecological safeguards into the project’s design and operations.

U.S. Senate passes Billfish Conservation Act amendment S. 396 updates 2012 law to regulate international sale of caught billfish.
WASHINGTON, D.C. — A proposal to regulate the sale of billfish in Hawai’i cleared its first major hurdle, Oct. 2, as the U.S. Senate voted to approve S. 396. The bill, introduced in February by Sen. Bill Nelson, D-Florida to make changes to certain marine conservation statutes, would amend the Billfish Conservation Act of 2012. S. 396, if ultimately signed into law, would specifically limit the sale of U.S.caught billfish to domestic markets. “This bill requires billfish caught by U.S. vessels that land in Hawai’i or

Sen. Bill Nelson introduced a proposal in the U.S. Senate to restrict the sale and transport of billfish to Hawai’i and Pacific Insular Areas.
Pacific Insular Areas to be retained for sale in those areas,” a summary of S.
396 stated. Current law allows U.S. fishing
vessels catching billfish in Hawai’i or Pacific Insular Areas such as American Samoa, Guam and Midway Island to sell and export them to non-U.S. markets (or exported to other U.S. markets). Billfish caught by U.S. fishing vessels in Hawai’i or Pacific Insular Areas could not be transported to Southern California if the Senate proposal is eventually signed into law, for example. The Billfish Conservation Act of 2012 became law on Oct. 2012 and, according to National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, “prohibits any person from offering billfish or billfish products for sale, selling them, or having custody, control, or possession of them for purposes of offering them for sale.” See BILLFISH CONSERVATION page 25

Billfish Conservation
Tight lines — By Parimal M. Rohit American Sportfishing Association president to retire ALEXANDRIA, Virginia —The executive leader of a national advocacy group for recreational anglers announced he will be retiring from his post in March 2018. American Sportfishing Association President and CEO Mark Nussman will officially complete his long-run as the group’s executive leader on March 31, 2018. Nussman was selected as ASA’s president and CEO in 2001, about nine years after he joined the organization. He officially joined the angling

organization in December 1992 as its vice president of government affairs. Nussman was actively involved in several pieces of fishing-themes legislation, such as the Magnuson-Stevens Fisheries Conservation and Management Act and creation of the Recreational Boating and Fishing Foundation. Among ASA’s most recent accomplishments under Nussman entailed a cooperative effort among anglers, fishing industry leaders and government officials in reducing the mortality of thousands of red snapper and other reef fish in the Gulf of Mexico and South Atlantic.
U.S. fishing vessels in Hawai’i and Pacific Insular Areas were exempt from the 2012 conservation law. The conservation act, however, did not include sale and transport restrictions introduced by Nelson. Congress passed the Billfish Conservation Act, however, with the intent of protecting the reportedly overfished species. “In passing the Billfish Conservation Act, Congress recognized the conservation challenges facing billfish populations in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans,” NOAA staff explained on its website about the federal law. “Congress found that, despite care-
Fish and Game Commission must form Tribal Committee SB 161, signed by Gov. Jerry Brown, would give tribes representation on state agency. By Parimal M. Rohit SACRAMENTO —A proposal calling for California’s Fish and Game Commission to create a formal Tribal Committee is officially on the books now as Gov. Jerry Brown signed Senate Bill 161 (SB 161) into law, Oct. 3. The committee would include at least one person from the five-member Fish and Game Commission. All committee business and recommendations would be reported on to the full agency. The Fish and Game Commission already has a formal Marine Committee and Wildlife Resources
Committee, each inclusive of at least one commissioner. Tribal matters have regularly been considered by the commission, but such issues were vetted by a committee not formal created my statute. SB 161 effectively formalizes a committee already in existence and functioning similar to the Marine and Wildlife Resources committees, but not officially on the books. Creation of the Tribal Committee would cost the state up to $150,000 annually, according to a legislative analysis. The funding would pay for a senior environmental scientist position to review all Tribal Committee matters and general overhead expenses. SB 161 was unanimously approved by the State Senate, 40-0, in May; Assembly members also supported the bill by a 79-0 vote in September.

OXNARD — Yellowtail bites have continued into October, as Ventura’s Raul Jimenez poses with the fork he reeled in near Anacapa Island while on a fishing expedition aboard Capt. Steve Earwood’s Coroloma (out of Hook’s Landing). Jiminez used live sardine to catch this 23-pound yellowtail. The Oct. 7 three-quarter-day Coroloma charter returned to Oxnard with 287 rockfish, 213 whitefish, 10 yellowtail, nine sheephead, seven sculpin (released) and five bonita for 41 anglers. The Oct. 7 overnight trip aboard New Hustler, also out of Hook’s Landing in Oxnard, had 21 anglers aboard who caught 210 rockfish, 42 lingcod and 15 whitefish.
(Clockwise from top left) Fury out of Dana Wharf went out on a 1.5-day fishing trip in early October and yielded 15 yellowtails to complement 28 bluefin. Anglers aboard Legend out of H&M Landing in San Diego returned to shore after a 2.5-day weekend excursion with 290 yellowfin, 93 Dorado and 77 yellowtails. It was a slower day for anglers aboard Thunderbird out of Newport Beach’s Davey’s Locker, but the fishing trip did yield seven bluefin, eight yellowtail, two lingcod and some rockfish. Lingcod was certainly the flavor of the day off the Santa Barbara coast, as anglers aboard Stardust’s Oct. 12 fishing expedition reeled in 23 lings, 64 rockfish, three whitefish and one cabezon during a threequarter-day trip.
ful management of domestic billfish fisheries, global billfish populations have declined significantly because of overfishing primarily through retention of bycatch by non-U.S. fishing fleets.” Billfish, according to the conservation act, applies to black marlin, blue marlin, longbill spearfish, Mediterranean spearfish, sailfish, shortbill spearfish, striped marlin and white marlin. Swordfish are exempt from the Billfish Conservation Act of 2012. Nelson’s proposal was introduced on the House of Representatives floor, Oct. 3, and immediately referred to its Committee on Natural Resources. The bill would go to Pres. Donald J. Trump’s desk if it passes out of the House.

San Diego Report
Hot bites continue for bonito, calico bass, Dorado, marlin, tuna and yellowtail By Bob Vanian SAN DIEGO — We are well into the fall and approaching the late part of the Southern California offshore fishing season. The great news is we are still seeing summertime like good bites continue for tuna, Dorado, yellowtail, marlin, bonito and calico bass. Water temperatures in many places remain in the 69.5 to 71 degree range and, for the moment, the warm water species appear to be content to remain in local waters. Bluefin tuna have been the headline species this season and continue to bite out by San Clemente Island. The bluefin bite looked like it was fading away about a week ago but has since rallied and improved to be providing some pretty good action. The best area for a chance at one of the 100+ pound bluefin has been by the 86 Fathom Spot outside of China Point and there have been some 20- to 35-pound bluefin, along with some 20-pound class yellowtail biting at Desperation Reef and outside of Lost Point. Bluefin tuna around San Clemente Island have been biting on kite trolled Yummy Flyers, sardines and Flat Fall jigs. Most of the action comes from working meter marks, sonar marks or spots of breezing fish. Porpoise schools found around San Clemente Island have been producing a few nice sized yellowfin tuna. The Tanner Bank is producing good numbers of 20- to 30-pound yellowtails. Some boats have fished the Tanner Bank for the big yellows instead of chasing lesser numbers of bluefin at San Clemente Island. Private boater Tom Golding of Last Buck reported fishing a recent trip to the Tanner Bank and said the 3 anglers aboard caught 11 yellowtails, all more than 25 pounds. The big yellowtails were often hard to keep away from the rocks when hooked and Golding reported they also lost several hookups to fish that were able to make it to the rocks. Golding reported they were catching their fish on Sumo 6X yo-yo jigs and Dorado color patterns were getting bit the best. The best action was reported while fishing in 130 feet of water to the north of the high spot at the Tanner Bank. The best of the yellowfin fishing has been in the San Diego region and below where there have been some limit yellowfin catches reported along with a mix of Dorado, yellowtail and skipjack. Productive areas have been the 224 Spot, 302 Spot, 371 Bank, 425 Bank, 475 Knuckle, Upper Hidden Bank, 385 Spot, 400 Spot and 238 Spot. Kelp paddies, spots of breezing fish, trolling strikes, porpoise schools, meter marks and sonar marks have all been leading
to yellowfin tuna action. Good jigs on the troll have been cedar plugs, feathers, Rapalas and Halcos. The yellowfin have been mostly 6- to 15-pound fish with occasional bigger fish to 60 pounds also caught. The bigger yellowfin tend to be hooked while fishing around porpoise. Private boater, Capt. Bob Woodard Jr. of Dropback, was out fishing with Capt. Nico aboard his boat, Legasea. Woodard said they focused on marlin fishing and had no luck with the marlin but did find a wide open dorado bite on a kelp paddie while fishing 2.5 miles out to the west of the 224 Spot. Woodard said the Dorado were running from 10 to 14 pounds. After limiting out, they left the Dorado biting to continue looking for marlin. The hot Dorado paddie was found while fishing 25 miles 235 degrees from Point Loma. Striped marlins have been biting best in the Catalina region and above. The past weekend saw what I estimate to be two or three marlins caught and released by boats fishing around the East End of Catalina in the area between the 125 Spot and 277 Spot. Better yet was the marlin fishing found above the West End of Catalina for boats working around the 125 Spot, 175 Spot and 172 Spot. My estimation is five or six marlins were caught and released by boats fishing these areas in mid-October. The marlin fishing in the San Diego region has been scratchy with an occasional marlin encounter being reported incidental to fishing for tuna at spots such as the 425 Bank, 302 Spot, 371 Bank and 475 Knuckle. The highlight fishing along the San Diego area coast has been for yellowtail and bonito, which have been biting well for boats fishing a short way above the Mexico border at the Imperial Beach Flats. Kelp paddies, trolling strikes, spots of breezing fish, sonar marks and meter marks have all been leading to action. Private boaters slow trolling sardines have also been doing well on bonito and yellowtail. We are fast approaching the end of October and the weather and water temperatures have remained warm. The fall fishing season is proving to be a good one so far. Enjoy the good warm water fishing we are being blessed with before the conditions change and things cool down. Keep on fishing and I hope to see you out on the water!

SoCal and Baja’s #1 Source for Fresh and Saltwater Fishing
SALTWATER OCEAN FISHING REPORT By Terrence Berg 976-TUNA.com BLUEFIN TUNA STILL GOOD: The excellent bluefin tuna bite on the banks off San Clemente Island and high spots south continues this week with a lot of fish from 15 to 300 pounds reported. Fortune out of Fisherman’s Landing had 11 anglers Oct. 9 on a 1.5-day trip and landed 14 bluefin along with 25 yellowtails and 12 calico bass. Aztec out of Seaforth Sportfishing had 10 anglers on its 1.5-day trip on Oct. 11 and landed five bluefin to 220 pounds and four quality yellowfin to 80 pounds. Thunderbird out of Davey’s Locker had 30 anglers on its Oct. 10 overnight trip and landed three bluefin along with 46 yellowtail, 15 calico bass, and one lingcod. Even the half-day and three-quarter-day boats are seeing a few bluefin inside the Coronado Islands. The half-day Dolphin out of Fisherman’s Landing had a bluefin on its Oct. 10 trip, along with 22 yellowtail, 30 rockfish, one bonito, and one sand bass for 20 anglers. Mission Belle out of Point Loma Sportfishing had 17 anglers on its Oct. 10 three-quarter-day trip and landed 15 bluefin along with 43 yellowtails, 25 bonito, and 21 calico bass. YELLOWFIN TUNA ALSO HOT: The fall massing of yellowfin tuna off northern Baja and into Southern California waters continues this week, and the bite has been very good from Ensenada to the border. Most of these fish are a solid 12 to 25 pounds with a nice 15-pound class average. There is also a lot of Dorado on the kelp, which are running 8 to 20 pounds, and when you add in the yellowtail, these are excellent trips. Pacific Queen out of Fisherman’s Landing had 13 anglers on its Oct. 10 1.5-day trip and landed 65 yellowfin (limits) and 26 Dorado. Pacific Star out of Seaforth Sportfishing had 16 anglers on a 2.5-day trip, and they landed 112 yellowtails, 23 yellowfin, one bluefin, and one Dorado. Even the three-quarter-day boats are cashing in on this bite. Mission Belle out of Seaforth Sportfishing had 22 anglers on its Oct. 11 day trip and landed limits of 110 yellowfin tuna. Liberty out of Fisherman’s Landing had 42 anglers on Oct. 10 trip and landed nine yellowfin, six yellowtails, five skipjack, and one Dorado. The Oct. 9 trip with 20 anglers produced limits of 100 yellowfin, seven skipjack, five Dorado, and two yellowtails. CATALINA AND CLEMENTE UPDATES: The action has been hit and miss for Catalina Island on yellowtail, but there continues to be a pretty good bite on rockfish, calico bass and bonito during this in-between moon phase. San Clemente Island, along with Anacapa and Santa Cruz, has continued to produce a good number of quality yellowtail along with pretty decent bass and bottom fish action. Freelance out of Davey’s Locker had 68 anglers on the Oct. 10 three-quarter-day trip to Catalina and landed just one yellowtail, but added 70 whitefish, 24 bonito, 10 Spanish jacks, and two sheephead. Pursuit out of 22nd Street Landing had 11 anglers on its all-day trip to Catalina and landed 84 rockfish, 31 bocaccio, 18 whitefish, 15 red snapper, six perch, five calico bass, four bonito, and one barracuda. Freedom out of 22nd Street Landing had 35 anglers on its overnight trip to Clemente and landed 55 quality yellowtails and five bonito. LOBSTER UPDATE: The action has been just fair overall, but boats running in the Santa Monica Bay and San Diego Bay have reported the best scores. Jig Strike out of H&M Landing had five anglers on its Oct. 10 twilight trip and caught 23 lobsters, releasing 44 shorts. Alicia, also out of H&M Landing on Oct. 10, had 10 anglers and
ended up with 18 lobster (59 shorts released) and eight sand bass. VENTURA-SANTA BARBARA UPDATE: The Ventura and Santa Barbara area Landings’ boats continue to have good rockfish action along with some quality yellowtail and calico bass on surface-fishing trips. At Channel Islands Sportfishing, Island Tak had 10 anglers on its Oct. 11 full-day trip and landed 30 keeper calico bass and one yellowtail. The three-quarter-day trip on Gentleman with 16 anglers produced 160 rockfish, 64 whitefish, one sheephead, and one lingcod. On Oct. 9, Aloha Spirit had 15 anglers on its Oct. 11 full-day trip and landed 48 rockfish, 14 yellowtails, and 10 whitefish. The Oct. 10 trip had 14 anglers who landed 31 yellowtails, two calico bass, and one sheephead. At Ventura Sportfishing, Island Spirit had a full-day trip Oct. 10 with 11 anglers and landed 28 yellowtails, 20 rockfish, and five lingcod. At Hookís Landing, Coroloma’s Oct. 11 threequarter-day trip with 20 anglers produced 16 yellowtails along with 25 bonito, 23 whitefish, 21 rockfish, and two calico bass. AVILA BEACH-MORRO BAY NEWS: The rockfish bite remains very good to excellent with most boats posting full limits of rockfish. The lingcod action is still up and down, but there are a few on most trips. At Virg’s Landing, Fiesta had 22 anglers on its Oct. 11 half-day trip and caught 176 rockfish, 44 red snapper, and five lingcod. The Oct. 10 trip with 32 anglers also had limits of cod, including 287 rockfish, 32 red snapper, 12 lings, and one sheephead. At Morro Bay Landing, Avenger had 20 anglers on the Oct. 10 three-quarter-day trip and landed 119 rockfish, 80 red snapper, five lings, and one bocaccio. Endeavor had 17 anglers on Oct. 10 and landed 160 red snapper, 15 lings, and 10 rockfish. At Patriot Sportfishing in Avila Beach, Phenix had 13 anglers on the Oct. 11 all-day trip, and landed 72 red snapper, 51 rockfish, six bocaccio, six lingcod, and one bolina. The local surf fishing remains fair to good for perch on bloodworms and lugworms. There are also a few stripers showing on Rapalas.
