REEF POINTS NOVEMBER 2024

I love this time of year because it is the start of the holiday season. Nothing beats the holidays and joy that surrounds this time. As Commodore, one of the most impactful things we do is give out checks for the holiday fund to our Crew. I have been able to witness this over the last two years and see how the Crew appreciates it and the incredible joy it brings. It is an amazing tradition that we have here at our Club.

Throughout the coming weeks, please make sure to scan the QR code that will be located at various places around the Club and participate by showing your appreciation to the Crew. We are shooting for 100% participation this year from our Members. It’s not about the amount donated, but the effort in showing our appreciation that matters. Remember, the holiday fund is distributed based on years of employment and is an incredible way to say thank you to the Crew.

The kitchen renovation is in the final phase and will be open by the second week of November. The before and after pictures are amazing, but even more thrilling is the fact that Chef Eddie will be rolling out a new menu this month, so be sure to make your reservations.

CRYC kicks off the sailing season with its Annual Regatta and this year is no different. Starting the first weekend in November, our busy regatta season quickly follows. I want to thank our Race Committee volunteers and Race Committee Chairman, Joe Kolisch, for all the hard work and dedication put in that helps further Coral Reef ’s reputation as a premiere yacht racing club. Later this month, our former Dockwallopers will be selecting their newest member. This year’s Dockwalloper will be revealed and celebrated on November 15th. This award recognizes a Member or Member’s spouse whose leadership and commitment to amateur yacht racing, sailing in the bay or ocean, and the promotion of the sport, merits special recognition. Please come out and celebrate this newest Dockwalloper.

This month also kicks off our annual toy drive with the United States Marines, Toys for Tots/Mack Cycle collection that is organized by our very own Brett Ury. He puts a lot of effort into this event, and it is such an incredible thing to do. This has become an amazing tradition here at the Club, and every year we seem to outdo the previous year. I am sure this year will be no different. It might have something to do with the free drink ticket you get with every toy brought in, but I’m not sure….ha ha ha. We also hold an amazing luncheon on Veteran’s Day to honor all those members of the armed service who have made so many sacrifices for this amazing country. An event not to be missed, especially leading into the holidays, is the Ladies Evening event on the 20th that will feature H&H Jewels showing off all of their amazing and “sparkling” items. My wife, Cristina, already has this day marked in the calendar! What a busy month we have ahead of us.

An important item to mention is that on November 13th, we will be holding our second Special Member’s meeting to go over many of the things we discussed at our last meeting back in June. During this meeting, we will have our auditing firm, RSM, here to present their annual comparative report on Florida Yacht Clubs. This is a great report to see how we compare to other similar clubs. A little hint and answer to the test question, we exceed our comparable clubs in all the major categories. During this meeting, we will go over the up-to-date financials of the Club including many of the new initiatives we will be implementing in our continued efforts to improve the Club we all call our second home.

Wishing everyone an amazing and joyous holiday season and, as always, Cristina and I hope to see you all at the Club soon.

On the Cover

Dear Coral Reef Yacht Club Members, As the holiday season approaches, it is a wonderful time to reflect on the hard work and dedication of our Crew. Throughout the year, they have consistently gone above and beyond to ensure that each of us enjoys an exceptional experience at the club. Whether it is maintaining our beautiful grounds, serving food and drinks with a smile, or working long hours to make sure everything runs smoothly, our Crew has shown unwavering commitment.

Star Midwinter Racing season is upon us. On this month's cover, we have star class boats taking advantage of a great breeze on Biscayne Bay.

This is also the time when we, as a community, have the opportunity to show our appreciation by contributing to the Crew’s Holiday Bonus Fund. These contributions are the primary way we are able to provide a meaningful endof-the-year bonus, recognizing their extraordinary efforts and helping to make their holidays as bright as they have made ours. I am hoping that we as a Club can reach a goal of 100% participation. More important than the amount is that we show the Crew how we really appreciate everything that they do for us.

I invite you to make your contribution and show your gratitude for their outstanding service. You can use the QR code below or contact the administrative office at (305) 858-1733 ext. 204 for assistance. It is important to note that the holiday bonuses are distributed based on each Crew member's years of service at the Club, and our Club Manager does not benefit from these contributions. Last year, members gave an average of $335 for a total holiday fund of $187,000.

In Memoriam

Thank you for your continued support and generosity. Let’s make this holiday season a special one for the entire Coral Reef family.

Warm regards, Stephan Medina Commodore

Join Race Committee!

Learn, Connect, and Take Part in the Action on Biscayne Bay

By Julie Hanrahan and Carolyn Groobey Do you love being around the water, meeting new people, and getting involved in something exciting? Now is your chance to join Coral Reef Yacht Club’s Race Committee and be at the heart of all the action! Whether you're an experienced sailor, the parent of a youth sailor, or someone looking to learn new skills, this is a great opportunity to get involved with an energetic and dedicated team that helps make sailing races happen.

We’re holding an introductory course on Sunday, November 24th, where you’ll have the chance to learn the basics of race management and discover how the team works together to launch and manage races on the bay. You don’t need any previous experience - just bring your enthusiasm and a willingness to learn. The course will take place at 2:00 PM on the 2nd floor of the Boathouse.

Not only will you pick up new skills and gain an understanding of how sailing races are organized, but you’ll also get to meet a group of friendly, fun-loving individuals. Being part of Race Committee is more than just volunteering - it’s about becoming part of a supportive community and making lasting memories.

To top it all off, after the course, stick around for a rooftop happy hour, where you can enjoy some refreshments, mingle with the rest of the team, and take in the beautiful views of the bay. It’s a perfect way to wind down and get to know everyone in a relaxed, fun environment.

So, if you’ve ever been curious about how races are run or just want to get more involved in the Club and sailing community, come join us on Sunday, November 24th and be a part of the team that makes it all happen! To secure your spot at the Introductory Race Committee training, please RSVP to Julie Hanrahan at hanrafam@aol.com. We can’t wait to meet you and share the excitement of racing on the bay!

A Crazy Chapeau Party

By Linda Stemples Hats, hats, everywhere, as far as the eye could see! Yes, it was the grand, fall welcome back for September Ladies Day. Members and guests sipped Veuve Clicquot champagne and four different flavored mimosas while nibbling on tea sandwiches and catching up on summer vacations and activities.

Joan Lawrence, Holly Barnhart, Terry Buoniconti, Ann Rudolph, and Linda Stemples welcomed attendees and directed them to the champagne bar and raffle table. Raffle sellers Eloise Carroll, Barbara Burdette, Melissa Horwitz, and Sharon Wynne were kept busy with participants purchasing tickets for two $150 Fiola gift cards (Nancy Bailey and Cookie Thelen), a Van Gogh Flower Pot from the Metropolitan Museum Gift Shop (Linda Stemples), a bottle of Veuve Clicquot champagne (Terry Buoniconti), and a blue sun hat from CRYC’s gift shop (Nancy Bailey).

The dining room appeared ethereal with white tablecloths adorned with large pink flowers, three tiered centerpieces of desserts (mixed berry tarts, madeleines, macaroons, and chocolate truffles), breads (scones and cranberry bread), and tea sandwiches (ham and brie on white bread, chicken salad with dried cranberries on whole wheat bread, smoked salmon, dill and crème fraiche on pumpernickel, and cucumber and Boursin cheese on rye bread). The tower was surrounded by three bud vases with pastel flowers. Maria Prorok McCormick welcomed everyone, and Sally Browne gave the thought for the day. The main entrée was Quiche Lorraine and spinach and roasted tomato quiche, and bibb lettuce salad with French vinaigrette, all accompanied by white wine.

Crazy hat judges were Jo-Ann Zanzuri, Maria Prorok, Kat Mehler, Susan Snyder, Holly Barnhart, and Terry Buoniconti. And the winners were: Ann Rudolph - Best Classic Luncheon Hat, Terry Buoniconti - Most Creative, Mary Ann Miller - True to CRYC, Commodore The Coral Reef Yacht Club and H&H Jewels Stephan Medina - Ultimate Yachting Hat, Cookie Thelen - Most Kentucky invites you to an evening of luxury.

BAD Offers Safety Class in CPR, AED and First Aid

Joan Mueller - A Star CRYC Member

On October 12th, BAD Committee organized another class focused on safety. Attendees were certified in CPR learning how to administer it to adults, kids and even infants. We learned how to help someone who is choking.

We were instructed how to give the Heimlich maneuver to adults, kids and infants. We learned how to apply a tourniquet (something you only do as a last resort). We covered strokes, seizures, high fever, anaphylactic shock, poisoning and much more. Please join us at future safety events. The life you save may very well be someone in your own family.

In 1971, Joan Mueller created the Homecoming Cup to give CRYC college students a chance to compete among friends during the year-end holidays. Qualifying races were sailed in Sunfish with the championship held in Stars hosted by the local fleet. Stephen Sprague, with Frank Zagarino as crew, were the inaugural Homecoming Cup winners. For the Homecoming Cup, she used the silver trophy which her grandfather won sailing in 1902.

Joan donated the trophy to PC Bill Smoak for him to use in the new CRYC Youth Regatta called the Orange Bowl International Youth Regatta. It has been the top OBIYR trophy ever since. Joan was also a co-founder of CRYC Ladies Sailing at the Club, along with Francis Virgin, which stimulated access and participation for women to sail and race Bullseyes at the Club on a regular basis. Joan is now 100 years "young." We still see her frequently at the Club when her son Fritz brings her for lunch and to the annual Veteran’s Day luncheon. You can recognize her by her smile and lovely laugh. We are so lucky to have her as a Member.

CRYC Sailors Shine at S.E. Dinghy Championship

By Coach Maykel Alonso We want to extend a heartfelt congratulations to our incredible Green Fleet Team for their outstanding performance at the 52nd Southeast Dinghy Championship, which took place at Key Biscayne Yacht Club September 27-29. After two days of racing, our team’s performance was nothing short of amazing.

This success was the result of a combination of factors including a well-executed game plan, smart strategies, and the hard work of all our sailors who attended the event. Sailing in light winds is never easy, and it requires a great deal of patience, technique, and concentration. It’s also important to identify opportunities on the water by distinguishing between noise and signals. Once again, congratulations to all our sailors and a big thank you to the parents for your continued support of our team. Your dedication plays a huge role in making these achievements possible.

Green Fleet: Ivan Riano (1st), Levi Hibbs (2nd), Christopher Chiu (4th), Christopher Fulton (5th) and Victoria Don (Top Girl). RWB: Annie Ulmer (1st), Alexander Montagu (5th), Arturo Zizold (6th), and Karl Panthaki (7th). ILCA4: Mia Noritake (3rd) and Kailee Moure (4th).

I420 Atlantic Coast Championship Multiple CRYC sailors competed in this event, which featured eight races over two days on Long Island Sound. Ava McAliley and her partner, Estella Morris, finished first overall. Other notable finishers included Annie Ulmer and Marin Redmond in third place, Coco Kolaya and Elizabeth Xydas in fifth, and Harrison Gandy and Sara Komaroff in tenth.

Max Wolfensberger and Soleil Aurignac took eleventh, while Melanie Lahrkamp and her partner Isabel Brewer finished fourteenth. Finn Grainger and Reid Smith came in sixteenth.
