ON THE COVER // NEIL RABINOWITZ www.neilrabinowitz.com

Anchored off of Chatterbox Falls in Princess Louisa, just beyond Jervis Inlet on the BC coast, this 55’ Flemming has their guests join them mid-voyage. A common sight along the Inside Passage is that of a Kenmore Air floatplane taxiing up to the transom of yachts of all sizes - both power and sail - in every hidden cove and quiet inlet from Seattle to Port Hardy. Founded in 1946 by Bob Munro and later run by his son, Gregg, Kenmore flies Beavers, Otters, and Twin Otter planes on scheduled runs and charter flights beyond the reach of roads and airstrips. Like the Calvary, Kenmore often arrives with needed parts, supplies, and replacement crews, often locating the correct yacht using GPS coordinates.

PUBLISHER'S NOTE

Red Sky at Night In 1987, Dan Schworer and Richard Kellum had the bright idea of starting a niche publication that would cater to the needs of Puget Sound boaters. Not surprisingly—given our region’s boatingobsessed culture—the magazine was a success, and Northwest Yachting’s proud legacy was launched.

In the nearly 30 years that have unfurled since the first issue hit marinas and chandlery shelves, the marine industry has grown, with an evolution towards bigger and more comfortable boats, more efficient marine engines, and electronics that were unimaginable back when LORAN and paper charts were a navigator's best friend.

Throughout the years and the myriad wind shifts that have carried boating into the 21st century, Northwest Yachting has kept its readers appraised of the evolving boating market while also helping them to better enjoy our magnificent cruising grounds through authoritative articles, practical guides, new-boat and newproduct reviews, as well as informative how-to pieces.

I joined the magazine’s staff nearly ten years ago, working and learning alongside Schworer, Kellum and former managing editor Bruce Hedrick as I grew from an administrative assistant into a sales and management role. After Schworer's unexpected death in May of 2015, and Hedrick's retirement later that summer—as well as Kellum's retirement this spring— I assumed the role of publisher and purchased Northwest Yachting with the goal of furthering the magazine’s proud legacy. I have since taken some bold steps to help the magazine evolve from the days when we metaphorically relied on LORAN to navigate publishing’s sometimes-challenging waters to a modern magazine that uses GPS to deliver better, more targeted content to our loyal readers and advertisers. While we will retain the best aspects of Schworer’s and Kellum's original vision, over the course of the next few months we will be completely overhauling and redesigning the magazine to create a publication that better serves our core audience of Pacific Northwest boaters.

A big part of this evolution will involve bringing some new voices to the magazine, and I’m thrilled to introduce

readers to Alex Kwanten, our new Creative Director, as well as Norris Comer, our new Managing Editor.

Kwanten originally hails from New York City but moved to the Pacific Northwest in 2009 to be closer to the mountains, forests, and our myriad wild places. Kwanten, 37, has an impressive resume that includes work at niche and business-to-business publications, and his eye-catching design work and photography skills are already making the magazine more visually engaging.

While Kwanten currently spends most of his free time enjoying our dry-land playgrounds—whether hiking, shooting photos, or wrenching on his 1975 MG MGB/GT—he is also looking forward to expanding his nautical horizons.

Comer joins the magazine from Portland, Oregon, by way of St. Petersburg, Florida. Comer, 26, first learned to sail on Puget Sound during high school but used his time in the Sunshine State to hone his seamanship skills aboard his “classic plastic” Catalina 27 while also working as an editor at a St. Petersburg publication. A stint on the Norwegian reality TV show, “Alt for Norge” (where he attained local celebrity) was next, followed by a wise move back to the Pacific Northwest.

Comer now owns a 1970 Albin Vega 27 and he’s looking forward to learning more about the trawlers and powerboats that commonly grace Puget Sound and our magazine's pages.

As for my own background, my husband Chris Gibbon, a competitive sailor, and I own a 1998 Bayliner 4788 and I come from a multi-generational boating family.

I remember plying local waters with my parents and grandparents as a child—an experience that Chris and I love sharing with our own children, and one that has shaped my love of the local boating culture and for Northwest Yachting.

So, while I’ve seen boats get bigger and more comfortable, I’ve also seen Northwest Yachting change, and I’m thrilled to share our redesign with you in the months to come. Please stay tuned, because—as the old nautical adage goes—a red sky at night is a sailor’s delight, and, while I may be a lifelong powerboater, I can tell you that the tomorrow is going to be a great day for boating on Puget Sound and the pages of Northwest Yachting.

Extreme weather events, aquifer depletion, toxic contaminants, fracking, pollution, spills, ocean acidification, floods, desertification, and the impact of rising seawater, are just a few of the urgent issues that confront us. The Fragile Waters exhibition was born out of these concerns. In technique and time these photographers span a century. The 117 black-and-white photographs present a powerful collective statement. These artists communicate the beauty and vitality of water, focusing on nature and

interesting and wilder west side of Vancouver Island with a congenial group of sailors. If you haven’t been to Barkley Sound yet, you need to see it with us.

Most boats clear customs in Victoria on Saturday and do a long run out the strait from Sooke on Sunday. The fleet assembles Sunday afternoon at the Port Alberni Yacht Club station in Robbers Passage (Near Bamfield) for our first night in Barkley Sound.

The sailing fleet will then race three possibly four races during the week, rounding buoys and islands within the sound. Racing is done cruiserstyle, with no flying sails. Finally on Friday we will dock at the marina in Ucluelet for an awards banquet at the Aquarium.

BOATING CLUBS Anacortes Sailing Society. The mission of the Anacortes Sailing Society is to put friends and sailing together through dinghy sharing and informal organized community sailing and racing. It’s the best way to get new people out on the water having fun.

Do you want to try dinghy sailing, but you’re not ready to spend thousands of dollars to try it out? Do you want to meet other people who like dinghy sailing? Getting tired of launching and hauling a dinghy for 3 hours to sail for an hour? Join the A.S.S. for $20/year and borrow a Laser, and help work on the boats and learn about rigging!

Do you want to go racing, but find it intimidating? Or invite novices, but afraid they will get yelled at while racing? Join the A.S.S. for $50/ year. You can even race with them, under the A.S.S. burgee, throughout the Puget Sound region. Every Thursday night all you have to do is finish the course (any way you can) to be entered in the weekly drawing. Meet afterwards for dinner and social at a different location every month. For more information visit: anacortessailingsociety.com

Antique and Classic Boat Society (ACBS) The Antique and Classic Boat Society is the largest society in the world dedicated to the preservation and enjoyment of historic, antique, and classic boats of all types.

In the past the focus was primarily on wooden runabouts, and has shifted recently to include “newer” Fiberglassics. The Pacific Northwest Chapter meets the second Wednesday evening of each month, usually at the Center for Wooden Boats, but please check the website for the current meeting place as we include events with our meetings at different locations.

If you own or are interested in old wood boats or a “Fiberglassic” or something similiar, please join us at one of our monthly meetings. Your first meeting includes free pizza and a beer! For more information visit: www.acbs-pnw.org/events.htm Bellevue Yacht Club. Founded in 1990, is one of the premier cruising yacht clubs in the Pacific Northwest.

With 13 cruises a year, we are certainly one of the most active. Most of our members live in the Seattle

area; however, this is by no means a prerequisite to join Bellevue Yacht Club. We have an outstation located in Kingston and we have a cruise every month of the year as well as dock parties, a cruise on opening day, and other fun events. If you enjoy boating, are new to boating, or would like to see our cruise calendar, please visit our website at: www.bellevueyachtclub.com Bremerton Yacht Club is is now accepting applications for new members with no limitations on where they live. The club has created a limited moorage membership for $500, vs the normal $1,500. Your boat must be able to fit into a shallow slip and moorage is paid for a year.

Boaters will enjoy having their boat on the water vs. in the backyard.

A junior membership, also $500, is available to those 35 and younger.

The club has 200 slips and offers many advantages for the hands-on boater: a haul-out, one ton crane, a shop, gas and diesel. BYC has an out-station on Anderson Island and over a 100 reciprocal clubs as well as secure parking and 24/7 access. The club has a remodeled Burgee Room where members enjoy swapping stories over a cold draft.

80 other yacht clubs in Washington and Canada. Our outstation at Hat Island (Gedney Is.) has 11 slips, access to the private golf course, tennis courts, and beach picnic areas. Our waterfront clubhouse is available for private parties, meetings, celebrations, etc. For more information call Pat at 206-595-6531 or see our website at: www.pugetsoundyc.org Queen City Yacht Club. Located on Lake Union, the club offers lowcost moorage, frequent cruises, and social events. Also known for its outstanding outstation in Eagle Harbor, right next to the city park.

Members also enjoy two other outstations — one in Deer Harbor in the San Juans and one in Ganges on Salt Spring Island. Prospective members can take two years to pay the reduced initiation fee. www.queencity.org Seattle Singles Yacht Club. If you are single and interested in boating and socializing, consider joining SSYC. It is an active club with something happening every week – boating raft-ups, day trips, overnight trips, dances, crabbing, whale watching, potlucks, pig roasts, parties and more.

CPYB KEEL SPONSOR

You are welcome even if you don’t have a boat or previous boating experience. For skippers, members can assist with boat handling and racing as well as simply socializing.

In our club we have a mix of power and sail boat owners.

Every month they host a dance that features local bands or deejays.

Featured dances include Halloween, Valentine’s Day, Christmas and an annual Commodore’s Ball. The club also co-sponsors the Goosebumps Race Series, hosts an Opening Day cocktail party on Dock Zero, and raises money for the Northwest Harvest food bank.

The cost to join SSYC is reasonable because they don’t maintain a clubhouse. Casual members pay $10 per weekly meeting, and Annual Members pay $150 per year.

Qualifying skippers (those who take members out on the water) pay no membership fees.

Meetings are Monday evenings at the Elks Club, 6411 Seaview Ave NW, Seattle, in the upstairs ballroom. Social hour starts at 7 p.m. with a meeting following at 7:30 p.m. For monthly dance night, the music begins at 8:30 p.m. – right after Monday meeting.

A New Champion in Olympia I

t’s a truism, but I’m always reminded of the amazing successes that occur when people of like minds organize themselves in an association and that association builds a coalition with other like-minded associations. On the flip side, it’s sad to see what happens when coalitions are not built. Fortunately for you, your trusty maritime associations win more often because we figured out that winning trumps losing. Losing occurs when we are not organized.

So before you get any further here, take a moment and renew your membership with your maritime association. What’s that? You’re already in good-standing? Well, send them another check for safe keeping.

But why? What’s my “return on investment?”

Jon Snyder, that’s your ROI. Synder, the publisher of the recreational guide Out There Monthly, and a former Spokane City Coun-

’S A M O C TA L L U F Y ONL E C I V R E S D R A Y T A BO R I A P E R &

cil Member, is Governor Inslee’s new policy advisor on Washington state’s $22 billion outdoor recreation economy. Every morning, he will pack his lunch and head off to work at the highest level of state government to ensure that there’s a strategic direction for outdoor fun.

This is a new position made possible by Governor Inslee’s Blue Ribbon Task Force for Outdoor Recreation. I’m sure there are some of you out there who had get cynical about another task force looking to solve the state’s problems. Well, in a short time, this group’s final recommendations have produced tremendous results. From the beginning, we started on the right course when they invited George Harris, President of the Northwest Marine Trade Association’s (NMTA) to serve on this committee.

You may remember just how many of the final 13 or so recommendations were boating friendly.

Moving on, thanks to this group, there’s a grant program (dubbed “No child left inside” or as Governor Inslee’s likes to say, “No child left on their behind”) that received funds in last year’s budget. But wait there’s more. You know all those gas taxes you pay at the pump for your boat?

Well, a portion of that money goes to improving boating infrastructure if the Legislature doesn’t raid that account like they did in 2014. (I know, I know, I need to let that go - ain’t happening though.) Interestingly our friends at the Recreation and Conservation Office (RCO) only receive 23 cents of the 39 cents for each gallon of boat fuel. That’s changing, too. In the future, boaters (via RCO’s grant program) will recoup 100 percent of this money that will then go towards new launch ramps.

Okay, as you can see, great things are happening. And we are only halfway through with the Legisla-

The fact that we are the largest part of our state’s economy is reassuring.

Certainly having Jon as our “Santa’s little helper” will mean when my calls aren’t returned, I’ll simply call Mr. Snyder for assistance. Barreling down doors at a minimum will serve us well. (Keep in mind that there’s another boating friend in state government with Joshua Berger, who serves as Governor Inslee’s maritime lead. You may remember that Steve Sewell served that role most recently until he retired. While sad to see Steve depart, I can’t think of a better replacement than Joshua.)

Passing the Marine Tourism Bill was next on the blue ribbon list. Well, check that one off. We took care of that last session and are working with our contacts around the country to get the word out that visiting boats, regardless of their ownership classification, can stay in our waters for up to 180 days.

tive session as this puppy goes to print. Other notable events have recently occurred that you need to know about. Washington Maritime Federation Day came and went on January 27. About 75 of us converged on Olympia to preach about the need for shop class to return to schools (a top priority for employers in the marine trades) among other maritime issues like the harmful impacts of a Puget Sound-wide No Discharge Zone. While this event went well, it was the second year of our combined advocacy. I had high expectations, and while met, I can say that Big Tent Rally Day was even more powerful.

How’s that for a segue?

Ah, the Big Tent. That’s the looselyformed organization that started with some lobbyists sitting around the table in 2012 about all the fun that occurs in Washington state on the one hand, and, on the other, how little power and respect the outdoor recreation economy gets. Each year, we have pressed the case that this is a huge number. The successes of this coalition are staggering: the aforementioned Blue Ribbon Task Force, Jon Snyder’s hiring, and then the Big Tent event on February 3 on the Capitol lawn. Keep in mind that there’s no grant or staff or logo (okay, it’s a clipart logo.)

To give you some context, previous advocacy days for this group that include NMTA and the Recreational Boating Association of Washington (RBAW) resembled an almost Bad News Bears quality. We’ve shown up, put up a bunch of tables and drank coffee while lawmakers and staff came and went. To make your point in Olympia during an “advocacy day,” to cut through the noise in Olympia, this “set up tables and they will come” method does not work. Allow me to let you in on a little secret. Events in Olympia succeed when you give away something free (“Baked Potato Day” and “Ice Cream Day” put on by the Potato Association and Dairy Association, respectively, are two of the most popular “days” during the legislative session. Free stuff brings the crowds). The second ingredient is that you need the governor there.

Then you need bipartisan legislators from both chambers. A quarter cup of guest speakers, too, always helps.

When all of these essentials converge, well, then you have a winning event that moves your respective agenda forward.

You will be happy to know that is exactly what happed with the Big Tent Rally Day. You want free stuff?

We had free coffee, hot chocolate, and a gracious donation of Ivar’s famous clam chowder to get staff and elected officials out of the comfort zones of their warm offices. Governor Inslee kicked off the day. Senators Hill and Ranker and Representative Senn spoke that we are one Washington, brought together by the love of the outdoors. REI had a booth, sport-

‘Big Tent’ attendees speak with Peter Schrappen. A wide array of outdoorrecreation industries and companies were represented beyond boating - kayaking, hiking, backcountry equestrian, and more.

ing their wares. NMTA and RBAW shared a table (of course). All told, there were about 30 tables of different outdoor groups (and companies like Polaris) that filled this extremely large tent. Heck, we even had Tony Floor’s fishing boat parked right in front. Jim Whittaker was our outdoor star who recounted his early days with REI and how that company has

grown. I would say that it was closer to a revival than a rally. I can’t wait to see how this group grows.

So there you have it: Our megaphones have increased in size around a shared message. Lawmakers have taken notice and it will be quite fun to see where this all leads a year or two from now. Stay tuned!

Swansong 1984 Swan 46 $275,000

Peter Schrappen is the NMTA’s Government Affairs Director and the Clean Boating Foundation’s Executive Director. Additionally, he serves on boards of the Boating Safety Advisory Council, the Washington Boating Alliance and the U.S. Superyacht Association. www.swiftsureyachts.com The name Nautor’s Swan is synonymous with fast cruising vessels of the highest quality.

Swansong fulfills this description completely. Her German Frers designed hull is fast, elegant and solidly constructed – equally at home stern tied to a wharf in the BVIs, island hopping in the San Juans or competing in an offshore race. On deck space is well conceived for this wide range of use possibilities, and Swansong features a full Iversen enclosure for her aft cockpit (which is plumbed for heat!). Below decks, her finely crafted teak interior is exceptionally comfortable. She boasts a huge salon arrangement – even for her 46 feet.

A large dinette with beautiful fixed leaf table will be the center of entertainment. Her large master stateroom with centerline berth, guest stateroom forward and pilot berths in the main salon will sleep eight. In 2013, Emerald Marine in Anacortes, Washington installed a new vacuum bagged teak deck and Swansong received a refit on deck with new stanchions and lifeline hardware, a reconfigured sail handling arrangement, and a long list of other improvements. Consequently, an already beautiful boat now looks “as new.”

Blackmouth Bounty in the Strait of Juan De Fuca

I

t was back during the Seattle Boat Show, at the end of January, when some dude stops me in the aisle and asked, “Hey, are you Tony Floor?”

“Yes,” I replied, “last time I checked.”

“Man,” he said, “where do you come up with all that *#! in your column?”

I wasn’t quite sure how to respond but gave it my best shot. “Actually, before I start writing,” I told him,“I inhale a thick slice of gorilla bread, followed by a little grape juice and a blast of 110 volts!” So here I am again, revved-up and ready to launch into my outlook for March!

First and foremost, most readers of this space know that I am a whackjob about fishing for the winter Chinook salmon we call blackmouth.

Having the opportunity to chase steelhead and spring Chinook entering the Columbia and its lower tributaries or razor clams during March, I choose to prioritize fishing for saltwater blackmouth in the peak of the winter season, particularly in the Strait of Juan de Fuca. March is primetime during the winter season when the fish seem to be larger as many of these blackmouth are packing on the pounds in preparation for migrating to their rivers this fall.

And, these fish are some of the most wonderful table fare I have consumed anywhere, any time.

Just ask friends who have dropped anchor at my table! The fish comes fresh off my Weber grill with a light sprinkling of lemon pepper, garlic salt and thin slices of butter on the flesh, which melts off the filets and into the charcoal, creating a smoky flavor. It’s a a life-changing meal!

Come on! Get on your knees and BELIEVE! I have also written in this space, in March columns from recent years, that one of the best places to collide with these March blackmouth is on many of the underwater banks in the eastern Strait of Juan de Fuca (Areas 6 and 7). Hein, Coyote, McArthur, Partridge, and Eastern Banks are known hangouts for March black36 NW YACHTING MARCH 2016

mouth, assuming the season is open at this writing. I prefer outgoing tides, targeting the edges of most of these banks where baitfish gather.

The big chrome wolves stalk their prey, picking off their targets, fish by fish, and attempting to fill their engine rooms. Yum-yum!

As I dream about hooking one of these gorgeous 10 to 12 pounders whose big head shakes the ligaments in my wrists, elbows and shoulders, I can’t help but think about the Winter Hole in Port Angeles.

Over the last few decades those waters at the doorstep of Port Angeles have been overlooked too often by winter blackmouth anglers. The locals tend to run stealth, and keep the good fishing intel quiet outside of the community. It’s hard to find good fishing reports from the Winter Hole unless you can develop a source. I have a wonderful source in Sequim who keeps me in the know, especially when quality-sized blackmouth infest the Winter Hole like traffic on I-5 in downtown Seattle at 1700 hours.

To find the Winter Hole, take a long look at the underwater geography about 3-4 miles west, northwest of Ediz Hook. You’ll discover a narrow horseshoe geography, facing east. The Winter Hole is the deeper water inside the narrow horseshoe.

This known blackmouth feeding area fishes exclusively on an ebb tide, which means the current runs to the west. Local anglers set-up a quarter-mile or so, east of the center of the horseshoe where the dirt becomes shallower, quickly, up to 60 feet. These blackmouth, milling on the edge of the uphill geography, wait for baitfish to flush into their kitchen. Dig me? When’s the last time baitfish flushed into your kitchen?

While blackmouth anglers understand there’s good fishing in the Winter Hole during these peak months of the season, it should never be overlooked for king salmon on an ebb tide in mid-July through early August. Never means never!

The preferred successful technique has evolved heavily to salmon

jigs for some time now. Jigs can effectively follow the contour of the rapidly changing bottom, jigging uphill to find Chinook salmon. Mooching works well too and although downrigger gear will work, anglers must pay extreme attention to their gear due to the quick-changing uphill bottom geography. Traditional downrigger winter gear works, including hoochies, spoons, flies and to a lesser degree, plugs. Similar to all other blackmouth fishing spots, hugging the bottom 10 feet is critical to success.

While I have spent many days in March doing business at the Winter Hole, I have a great traditional fishing trip planned to the San Juan Islands in the middle of the month to fish Coyote Bank. Located on the U.S.-Canada boundary line in the middle of the Strait, about 15 miles south, southwest of the west side of San Juan Island, the Coyote has been good to my group of anglers for the last few decades. The game plan is simple. Fish the Coyote hard, preferably on an out tide until early afternoon, then scream back to our house near Roche Harbor and watch March Madness in the afternoons and evenings. The day peaks in the early evening when my fishing buddies and I perform swan dives into great eats, grape juice and cigars.

Ahhhhhh, life is good, baby!

If Area 6 is closed before this column hits the streets, which could happen at this writing, my fallback strategy is to visit productive fishing spots in Area 7, the San Juan Islands including Hein Bank.

Mike Schmidt of Sequim knows all about the Winter Hole near Port Angeles. Good marine electronics and GPS are critical to finding the sweet spot on the uphill end of the Winter Hole during the ebb tide.

North of Falcon meetings My final thoughts and outlook for the month of March includes the annual salmon season setting process called North of Falcon. This process includes a parade of meetings, negotiating with Washington Department of Fish & Wildlife (WDFW), tribes and federal government culminating in an agreement that establishes all sport salmon fishing from May 1st through April, 2017. These negotiations are similar to undergoing a frontal lobotomy that would make a zombie out of any normal thinking human being. Seriously! It’s like getting a root canal without drugs and then singing Ave Maria in front of the Pope at the Vatican. Got a visual?

Regardless, as an optimist, I am not usually pessimistic about the upcoming negotiations related to the North of Falcon salmon season setting process. Early warnings suggest coho salmon will be in the tank.

From the Columbia, coast and Puget Sound, I am anticipating a torpedo in the engine room compared to the kind of access we have enjoyed for years, regarding general coho

salmon populations in our marine waters. The warning signs were clear last September and October when surviving coho, migrating to Washington streams, were generally half their normal size, starved from poor ocean-feeding conditions. If you’re anxious to point a finger in any one direction, point it at Mother Nature.

While I’m not recommending pointing a finger at any mother, it is the tough environmental conditions, known more commonly as El Nino, that have taken a toll on surviving coho salmon that are working their way home this year.

The coho fishing seasons will face some kind of conservation-related actions, so brace yourself as it’s headed our way. In the meantime, I’m headed for the banks to cash a few blackmouth checks. Yahoo! See you on the water!

Editor’s note: At press time, Area 6, Freshwater Bay east to Pt. Wilson, faced a possible early closure for the winter season

by WDFW, due to high encounter rates

of undersized Chinook salmon. Please check with WDFW at 360-902-2700 to confirm this looming regulatory action.

O

ne of my favorite shorebirds this time of year is the black oystercatcher. They walk with such a deliberate and dignified stride, run easy with considerable speed, and their flight is swift, yet graceful. Their song is both distinctive and memorable.

Feeding almost exclusively on oysters, clams, mussels and various shellfish, they can often be seen along the edge of sand or mud flats or along a rocky shoreline. They locate food visually, then force the shells apart with their bright red, strong, wedge-shaped, and razor38 NW YACHTING MARCH 2016

sharp bills. A fascinating sight, to be sure.

While it is obvious this charming shorebird is definitely partial to oysters, I have concluded that categorically there are people who simply hate oysters and won’t eat them in any form, those who will eat oysters only if cooked, and then there are those who enjoy oysters on the half shell or really any way they can get them.

For the true oyster lover — the purists, if you will — just thinking of eating oysters can induce instant recall of the cucumber-fresh, sweet,

briny meat – smacking of the sea and tangy minerals. Coppery, tinny, clean, intense, soft, melonlike – all are favorable descriptions and a matter of strong personal preference of the oyster devotee.

The history of oysters is definitely a rags-to-riches sort of story. As the favorite food of emperors and kings, oysters were once transported with great difficulty as well as great expense, devoured at banquets, synonymous with decadence and excess. However, oysters were also a staple of the poor, the main ingredient in a

astonishing nutritious stew that staved off hunger. Even before that, coastal Native Americans gathered oysters in abundance— simply there for the taking to smoke or steam and enjoy at festive gatherings.

Today, the story comes full circle. For some, the days of plentiful, inexpensive oysters belongs to the romantic era of America’s past. Oysters, along with caviar and foie gras, are in a class apart, the piece de resistance in the menus of inspired chefs and the ultimate at posh parties given by

the most discriminating hostesses.

Additionally, knowledge of oysters and their cultural sources has become a bit of a status symbol akin to an understanding of fine cognac or Cuban cigars.

Indeed, unique in a group of foods that includes truffles, lobster, artichokes, mangoes, passion fruit, and a score of other “love” foods, oysters are fare for the initiated few. There is a mystery, a subtlety, a quality that defies explanation.

No other food evokes such strong feelings of utter bliss or revulsion.

We here in the Pacific Northwest well know that the oyster enthusiast need not limit his enjoyment to oysters in expensive restaurants, at exclusive parties, or dockside oyster bars. We know that one of the best ways to eat oysters is to simply throw them on the grill. If not, keep freshly shucked oysters cold on a bed of ice served with lemon and freshly ground pepper.

For the novice, I off er some basics. Obviously, the oyster has two shells that are hinged together.

The upper shell is fairly flat and the lower is cupped. Whether shucking or grilling, oysters should be handled with the cupped side down to keep the liquor (juice) from spilling out. To shuck, insert a knife blade between the shells, about two-thirds of the way along the side from the hinged end of the shell. Move the knife back and forth horizontally against the inside of the top shell, cutting the adductor muscle. The shell will open, revealing the oyster cupped in its own liquid, often called liquor.

With so many tantalizing ways to enjoy the beloved bivalve, this could be an education everyone might enjoy. Perhaps with the following recipes (at right) as inspiration you can successfully seduce the hesitant into the wonderful world of oyster cuisine to appreciate this treasure as much as the oystercatcher! You never know…

In medium bowl, beat eggs until light; add cream, hot pepper sauce, and aniseed, mixing well. Melt butter in 10” skillet over medium heat; add eggs and stir quickly, tilting pan to cover surface with egg. When eggs are almost set but still creamy, spread spinach along center of omelet.

Lay oysters on top of spinach, and cover with ½ cup of sour cream sauce, then sprinkle with cheese. Fold omelet over, enclosing filling in center. Serve on warm plates, with small amount of sauce spooned over top of omelet.

NW YACHTING MARCH 2016 39

f you missed this year’s Seattle Boat Show, you missed a darn good one. Visitors streamed through the aisles of the CenturyLink Event Center and filled the booths with smiles on their faces. Attendance was up 1.4% (from 51,684 to 52,427) from last year, and boaters were in a buying mood.

The Northwest Yachting crew was on hand, and we picked a handful of new boats and new products that we feel just shouldn’t be missed.

A few trends were unmistakable. Manufacturers focused more energy on small boats than they have in the past. There were new runabouts, both aluminum and fiberglass, galore, along with modestly sized cruisers like the new Ranger Tugs 23. Fishing was also a clear focus. As usual, there were a number of new fishing boats. What was notable, however, was that larger cruisers are now all featuring a greater emphasis on fishing and boats dedicated spaces for bait boxes, cleaning stations and so on.

On the sailing side of things, the new large cruisers are spacious and comfortable. On the outside, their sail-handling systems are becoming more refined for the casual sailor, with 40 NW YACHTING MARCH 2016

simple rigs and common use of electric winches. Belowdecks, volume is king. Officially gone is the cave-like interior, replaced by wide open-spaces and full-sized galleys, heads and staterooms.

Common to both sailboats and motor yachts was noticeable attention to detail and quality, particularly when it comes to systems. Even if a new boat doesn’t have, for instance, a watermaker, the builder often anticipates the need for one and sets aside a bit of space for future upgrades. Quality was also evident in the Mezzanine and the North and East Halls where many of the accessories and new equipment were displayed.

Electronics improve by the year, with the phrase “user friendly” living up to its meaning.

Could there be a better location for the Chandler’s Cove in-water portion of the show than the hot South Lake Union area? Once again there was a mix of pre-owned and new boats, and this year the weather even cooperated with moderate temperatures and minimal rain.

Here are a few of the boats and gear we found interesting at this year’s show:

CHANDLER’S COVE

BOAT SHOW WALK

ot every day was sunny for the in-water show, but temperatures were moderate and there was remarkably little rain.

Well-presented and accessible new and used boats filled Chandler’s Cove, and eager brokers spent time with boaters who trekked outdoors. Proper Pacific Northwest attire was all that one needed to enjoy the cool and cloudy February day and see the boats.

Cruisers Cantius 48 Another boat that stood out was the Cruisers Cantius 48. Built in Oconto, Wisconsin, these yachts are of consistently high-quality, and judging from the 48, quite cutting-edge in their design.

Marlow Pilot 31 Ever since Marlow took over the Mainship and Hunter lines in 2012, it has been gradually revamping models, giving the well-known power and sail lines a new look.

The Marlow Pilot may be the prototypical one-couple motor yacht. It has a spacious galley and head, and the massive V-berth will be comfortable at anchor or in the slip. One great feature is the spacious enclosed cockpit area. Comfy captain’s and mate’s seats will make passages and cruises a pleasure, and there’s a fixed table and seating for entertaining after getting to a destination. There are three single-screw power options, all Yanmars, ranging from 180 to 260 horsepower. Fuel capacity is 196 gallons, which should provide a good range for most Northwest cruising.

Pat Kelley of Silver Seas Yachts was particularly excited about the layout. “This layout is unique,” he explained. “To have a full-size cabin amidships makes this 48 really special.”

Indeed, there are two staterooms, one under the cockpit utilizing the full beam, and one in the bow. Either way, the owners and their special guests get a great space of their own.

With Volvo Penta IPS drives, performance is also cutting-edge, particularly when it comes to maneuvering in tight quarters.

In a world where yachts sometimes provide more space and more systems than are absolutely necessary, the Marlow Pilot seems to have struck the right balance of space and comfort for a couple who wants to take short cruises.

Moody 45DS One really needs to step aboard the Moody 45 DS to get a sense of the yacht. It is a full-on deck saloon boat, with the main saloon positioned high and surrounded by windows.

While she looks a bit like motorsailers from days gone by, she sin’t one. There is no inside steering station, but that’s hardly relevant with today’s remote-controlled autopilots. The dry, warm captain’s chair offers great visibility where one could pass a rainy four-hour watch in complete comfort.

Tartan 31 Discerning boat-show aficionados might recognize the Tartan 101 from a former incarnation as the C&C 101. It is a sport boat with benefits, such as an enclosed head and enough comfort to go family cruising. She is mostly sporty, with a carbon-fiber mast, carbon retractable spirit and rudder post, 6’6” draft, and a huge cockpit.

On the lower level forward, it’s all bed and bath. There are guest staterooms to port and starboard of the companionway, with the master stateroom in the bow. There are two heads. The Moody’s fold-down transom makes boarding easy and opens a huge storage area under the cockpit with room for a RIB. But how does she sail? That’s hard to tell from a boat visit, but the reports have been positive.

The boat looked like a caged animal waiting for her chance to run while she was sitting at the boat show dock. Belowdecks, she was what one might hope for in a racer-cruiser, namely a great space for stowing sails during a race and enough berths that kids and parents don’t have to sleep on top of each other during a short cruise. Shearwater Yacht Sales of Anacortes presented the boat.

NW YACHTING MARCH 2016 41

easy to spend an entire day or two wandering under the bright lights and neon displays at the CenturyLink Field Event Center. You may look at boats online or dream about a broker’s ad, but nothing beats looking at boats in person where surprises always await.

Beneteau Carbon 35 Signature Yachts had three boats on display in the Event Center, including the Beneteau First 35 Carbon Edition. The French manufacturer manages to put out a consistent, quality product and has earned a loyal following. The lineage of its racing-oriented First models is solid, dating back to the late-1970s. The 35 Carbon was introduced last year and sailed to a second-place Finish in their class at Cowes Week.

Ranger Tugs

CENTURYLINK FIELD EVENT CENTER

One of those surprises was the experience of the Ranger Tugs booth. The Ranger Tug folks were quick to point out that once you buy a Ranger, you’re part of their family. There were plenty of personnel to show the boats and explain the company’s philosophy, but the feel was one of “come on in, join the fun!”

The videos playing were as much about rendezvous events as vessel features.

With a carbon mast, a lead keel and a racing deck layout, this should be a great performance-oriented boat. But if it finishes a bit after the overpowered Grand Prix yachts that run the race course these days, it will certainly give the owner a much nicer experience doing deliveries or cruises with his family.

There were several new offerings in the booth to talk about.

The Ranger Tug 23 (below) attracted a lot of attention, its modest size clearly appealed to a certain segment of the boat show public.

The most innovative, and in fact ingenious, features on the 35 is its “rocking” steering wheel. It can rock to port or starboard depending on where the helmsman wants to sit, or stay right on centerline. A simple catch on the cockpit floor makes the transition quick and easy and allows you to lock it in on whatever tack you’re on. This is a great solution for a 35-foot racer with a wide transom.

The wheel doesn’t obstruct movement, yet appears to be in a great position for steering and visibility.

The sporty Cutwater series, both the new 24 and the updated 30 (above), were on hand and steady streams of boaters poked around their every nook and cranny. Starting at just under $100K, the Cutwater 24 should appeal to boaters looking for a vessel to fish one weekend and cruise another.

Raptor Decks A product in the show’s designated sailing corner of the show might have been more suited to the center of the show. After all, what boat doesn’t need great footing when things get wet?

Raptor Deck foam deck grip is the brainchild of Dan Kaseler. Kaseler needed to ensure better footing on a Melges 24 sailboat he was campaigning, and the nonskid tape he looked at seemed expensive and not up to the standards of a serious racing sailboat. So he affixed a substantial foam sheeting to the cockpit floor. Racers are quick to gravitate to what works, and Raptor deck grip was born.

In addition to the pre-fabricated kits for racing boats, ranging from the Melges to the C&C 30 and larger J/Boats, Raptor decking can be purchased in sheets. And, perhaps best of all, it is now available in various faux-teak shades, making it a good option for cruisers or powerboats that are often adorned with real teak.

The manufacturing process also allows for all sorts of inlays, textures and colors, giving the boat owner every opportunity

42 NW YACHTING MARCH 2016

to stand out. Samples were on hand, and show goers were keen to give the new deck material a feel.

Several well-known Northwest racing sailboats, including the Farr 395 Ace and the Bieker 44 Dark Star, use Raptor Deck. Several powerboat manufacturers have caught on as well.

Kirsten Bergstrom and Josh Suidyla of Raptor Deck talk with a customer at the show.

Clipper Coming Some booths weren’t selling gear or boats, but experiences. The Clipper Round the World Race was on hand, both to promote the upcoming visit in April by the actual race boats and to sell crew positions for the race’s next edition.

Sir Robin Knox-Johnston created the race through his company Clipper Ventures to give interested comers the chance to race around the world. A fleet of a dozen identical 70-foot monohulls were purpose-built for the Clipper race, and interested sailors pay for the opportunity to learn the ropes of offshore racing.

Former competitors Della Parsons (an official “recruiter” for the race) and Canadian Romanda Simpson manned the booth. The two clearly had a lot of fun telling Northwest boaters about their adventures and building the excitement in advance of the Qingdao, China to Seattle leg. They were also recruiting potential crew for the 2017-18 and 2019-20 races.

Both women emphasized the familial nature of the race, how close-knit a crew can become, and how the experience changed their lives and bound them to the entire Clipper family.

Della Parsons and Romanda Simpson

A TALK WITH GEORGE

The Show Goes On, In Good Hands “I bet I’ll get stopped three times before I make it through the mezzanine level,” George Harris said matter-of-factly as we trekked from the show office to a more comfortable place to talk.

The threat of February weather, it seemed, was the biggest issue at this year’s Seattle Boat Show.

While George was concerned, he was clearly in a comfort zone this year. The show was going great, its space once again sold-out, and there were no major complaints.

Harris moved along the aisles with ease, offering a hello here and a handshake there. After 10 years, early on as the boat-show director and for the last seven as President and CEO of the Northwest American Trade Association (NMTA), which is responsible for the show, Harris is comfortable in his role as ringmaster of the three-ring circus known as the Seattle Boat Show.

In fact, “comfortable” pretty much describes the Seattle Boat Show these days. It is well known, has a sterling reputation, and everything works. At a time when boat shows around the country are struggling and even folding, the Seattle Boat Show — a consumer show and not a trade show, as Harris is quick to point out — is going strong.

As if on cue, Mark Tanner of exhibitor Tanner Manufacturing and Design came up to Harris to chat about the show. While Harris hasn’t been the Show Director for the last seven years (that honor and a tremendous amount of work belongs to Katie McPhail) he knows virtually all the exhibitors, and they all know him. Tanner mentioned the weather and gave kudos to the show and the work that the Northwest Marine Trade Association does.

Highlights this year included the career fair, which tripled in size in just a year. The TV, radio, and Internet ads that targeted younger and more racially diverse crowds seemed to work as planned.

Sail America held a well-attended meeting about promoting the sport.

If Harris’ concern regarding the weather was modest, his concern for the future of the show was serious and far-reaching. He described two big challenges in the coming years.

The first challenge is one of space. From 20052008 when the marine industry was in high-gear, the boat show spilled out into the adjacent parking garage. While that added exhibitor space, it certainly wasn’t ideal. With business picking up again, the

show is currently at its physical limit and nobody is excited about setting up in a garage. Harris said that he and the NMTA are working on the problem.

Accessibility was the second challenge that may be beyond Harris’ control. Seattle is becoming more mired in traffic congestion every year, and there are few signs it’s going to improve. Both show-goers and exhibitors already face traffic challenges, and they could become worse.

“One of the biggest positives this year,” Harris explained, “was the two-dollar parking on weekends.” That was a big reason for this year’s good attendance. Without that program, parking near the stadium ranged up to $15, which could be a factor for someone only casually interested in boating.

And on the exhibitor side, a major problem was discovered on the first day of move-in. Some of the curbs placed along the waterfront sea wall

At a time when boat shows around the country are struggling and even folding, the Seattle Boat Show is going strong. construction area were positioned so that it was impossible to get the larger boats to the stadium.

SDOT responded quickly, however, when former NMTA President and CEO Michael Campbell and Waterfront Steering Committee member Bob Donegan became involved. This example illustrates an ever more crowded downtown.

Harris plans to stay ahead of the curve on these issues and is optimistic that the Seattle Boat Show will continue to grow and prosper in the years to come.

And for all of us who like boating in the great Northwest, that’s a comfortable thought.

Alaska Anyone?

Just down the “1000” aisle from the Clipper booth was a bevy of Alaskan booths. Wrangell Port and Harbor, Petersburg Chamber of Commerce and the Alaska Association of Harbor Masters and Port Administers were all on hand to let boaters know that once they make it that far north they’ll be met with a warm reception.

CENTURYLINK FIELD EVENT CENTER

With fuel prices down, more than a few boaters might want to check the trip to Alaska off their bucket list. There is, of course, the jaw-dropping scenery and friendly locals, but there are also glaciers that are fast receeding. The Alaska folk are clearly interested in having some visitors. This could be the perfect year to explore points north.

Marilyn Menish-Meucci was in the Petersburg booth letting everyone know that friendly faces await in Alaska.

Something New From Hobie A trip to the show is never complete without a visit to the Hobie Cat Northwest booth. Dan Carpenter and company always have the latest kit on display, and Hobie Cat seems to always have something new to offer ... eventually.

According to Carpenter, the single-seat Mirage Pro Angler 12 and 14 fishing kayaks are going out the door fast, while the substantial looking two-seat Mirage Pro Angler 17T is just now making its way into the market.

These kayaks are true fishing machines, from the Mirage pedal drives (freeing up your hands for casting) to the built-in spot for mounting a fish-finder transducer.

Carpenter also hinted that we can all expect something big and exciting from Hobie in the near future.

While Carpenter wouldn’t divulge any secretes, he was quick to suggest that Hobie’s new announcement will be newsworthy. “They’ve become pretty good at keeping secrets,” he said of Hobie. Stay tuned!

Headhunter Aqua-box Mini Of course the boats themselves are only a part of show. As the West Coast’s largest show, and because of its timing, the Seattle Boat Show is the place many manufacturers choose to introduce their products.

The Yacht Masters Northwest booth had one of those new products, one that would make life onboard a bit more seamless.

The Headhunter Aqua-box Mini water pump has been sized for boats from around 80 to 130 feet in length. Its frequency drive pump operation means that pressure is maintained continually, and that annoying pulsing at a faucet is eliminated.

Another great feature is the quiet operation. Situated in a sound-attenuated enclosure with soft mounts, the unit is virtually silent. And when positioned in an engine room or locker, nobody will ever hear it kick on.

44 NW YACHTING MARCH 2016

Keith Mahler of Headhunter was in the Yacht Master Northwest booth to explain the advantages of the Aqua-box Mini.

Stabicraft 1600 Fisher The Stabicraft 1600 Fisher, from New Zealand, is one tough pocket rocket and is based on the company’s successful 1530 and 1650 models, a lineage identifiable by the Game Chaser Transom and Arrow Pontoons. These boats are reported to offer fun, dry, and soft rides in just about any conditions.

Features like the resin-infused carbon-fiber composite cabin and relatively narrow beam of 6’7” combine to make a sport craft ready for the elements. The wingstyle coamings help make the interior feel larger and offer additional seating. A Maxwell RC6 windlass and one piece windscreen are standard with all models.

Engines are sold separately, and the Stabicraft 1600 was designed to accommodate a maximum engine weight of 185 kg and a recommended horsepower of 70. All in all, the Stabicraft 1600 Fisher is an innovative, ergonomic, and smart-looking option for small-boat buyers on the market for their next fix.

Stowable Kayak The Seattle Boat Show abounded with all sorts of toys that could collapse, deflate, or nest within themselves aboard a mother ship.

One of the more interesting offerings was the modular kayak displayed by Alki Kayak Tours. The kayak, which was built by the Swedish company .65 North, broke down into three sections and came together with simple ratcheting straps. This modular form represents another way to get the ubiquitous kayak aboard without taking up too much space.

Alki Kayak Tours also had a wide assortment of kayak and SUP paraphernalia on display, including kayak sailing rigs, high- tech paddles and racks of specialized attire for the Northwest.

.65 North’s stowable kayak breaks down into three relatively small, easily stored components and features an integrated rudder.

SeaSport 2800 The SeaSport 2800 was on display in the show’s North Hall.

There are many reasons SeaSports are one of the prototypical Pacific Northwest boats, but the biggest one may be the culture of incremental improvement.

This 2800 is a good example. Everywhere you look in the cockpit there are touches — many new — to make fishing and life aboard even better. There are rod racks and substantial mounts for everything from downriggers to cupholders, and a variety of fish holds and bait boxes. Throughout the boat, quality is evident with a basic proven layout and features that work.

The standard equipment list includes a two-burner stove and hot and cold pressure water at the galley.

It was great to see Ron Wright on hand enthusiastically showing the boat to visitor after visitor. The Wright family founded SeaSport back in the 1950s and guided it to the prominence that the company enjoys today.

The Important Corner A shallow pool that was filled with water and little kid’s paddle boats was tucked away in the show’s East Hall. Nearby, there were several kid-oriented booths plus the opportunity for kids to do some bumper boating in the pool.

If you were lucky, you could have met Annie Crawley, aka Ocean Annie. She runs the Beach Camp at Sunset Bay for kids, which enables kids to experience just about every water-based activity.

The camp, situated just north of Edmonds, is easily accessible.

Crawley brings a lot more than just garden-variety boat rides.

The water is her classroom, and with proper wetsuits kids have no problem enjoying Puget Sound’s 50-degree waters. Crawley, a scuba diver and photographer, is bent on sharing her environmental message with youngsters via additional school presentations, books, and DVDs. “We can’t wait,” Crawley says about the fight against plastics in the oceans. “It’s too important.” She has a ready audience in the kids. The super-high-energy Crawley recognizes that no matter how serious the topic is, wearing a squid hat is still recommended.

Bayliner 215 The popular Bayliner 215 Deckboat is a sporty and economic choice for flat water fun. The spacious sun lounge seating arrangement is perfect for passengers who want to soak in the rays, while the boat’s roomy in-floor locker accommodates water toys and gear ranging from skis to inflatable toys. Easyto-reach grab rails and cup holders grace the generous bow seating area. The skipper commands control at the helm over the all important waterproof 120-watt AM/FM stereo controller with iPod and MP3 inputs from his or her 180-degree-swivel Helm Bucket Seat.

The Bayliner 215’s generous layout is set on a compact frame with a length overall of 20’7” and an 8’6” beam that nicely rides on her trailer. She can fly high over Lake Union with her (maximum) 260 horsepower and 55 gallon fuel capacity. Make sure to adhere to the twelve-person, 1,750 lb. limit, which could be difficult this summer when everyone wants to jump aboard for a ride.

THREE KEYS TO A POSITIVE CHARTER EXPERIENCE

chartered boat is a fantastic way to explore thriving communities and remote anchorages, commune with nature, and enjoy friends and family. How do you decide what vessel or company to charter?

There are several factors to consider, as your charter boat must meet your personal needs and the demands of the local environment.

46 NW YACHTING MARCH 2016

1

What’s the experience you’re hoping to have?

Determine what you want out of your dream vacation. Do you want to cover a lot of area in a small amount of time or meander through towns and anchorages? Do you prioritize space and comfort or speed? How sea worthy do you need your vessel to be? Do you want the exploratory experience of a bareboat charter or the luxury of onboard captains and chefs? A guided flotilla could be the perfect in-between. Understand your dream and the right charter company can help make it come true.

2 Do your homework and ask questions.

The caliber of the charter company is usually a good reflection of the quality of vessel you can expect to charter. What is the company’s reputation and culture? Are they boaters? How accommodating and comfortable do they make you feel during the first call? Are they knowledgeable, helpful, and passionate about boating? Can they help with an itinerary plan? Do they have an established safety network to help within your desired cruising grounds? What is their policy in case of a mechanical issue? Like any profession, the more pride people take in their work and company, the better the service and experience they can provide.

3

Make sure the vessels are well maintained.

A key element of a successful charter is to ensure the boat is well-maintained and in good condition. The age of a boat is not necessarily an indicator of high boat quality, but acommitment to year-round maintenance is.

What is the annual maintenance schedule for the charter boats? Is the navigational equipment up to date? Are the interiors kept clean and fresh-looking? How often do divers service under the vessel’s water line, is the boat painted, and are the engines checked?

Does the boat have a full set of relevant charts? What is the condition of special amenities onboard? Are the galleys fully stocked? Are there crab pots, dinghies, fishing gear, etc.? Is it company policy that everything on the boat works before it goes out on charter? What happens if equipment fails at sea? It will make the difference between a relaxed, amazing experience and an anxious one.

You may have noticed that price hasn’t been mentioned yet. Of course the price of a charter is important. However, it is important to take all of the items listed here into consideration. You may need to pay more for the peace of mind that comes with a quality charterboat company, but make sure you look for competitive, fair, and consistent pricing. Most importantly, your charter decision should feel right. You should feel safe, comfortable, and at ease with your decision. Enjoy your time on the water with family and friends, not worrying. Remember, you are chartering a boat for fun!

Kings,Captains, and

CLOCKMAKERS THE HOW AND WHY OF GREENWICH MEAN TIME

BY PETER MARSH

48 NW YACHTING MARCH 2016

W

hen the new King Charles II of England dreamed of building a seafaring empire, his ministers advised him that the greatest threat to his goal was not scurvy or rival European powers, but the appalling loss of ships through faulty navigation. So Charles signed the order “to find the so-much desired longitude of places for the perfecting of the art of navigation.”

This was the start of an epic effort to solve the greatest practical scientific problem of the 17th century—how to find longitude at sea.

This monumental effort, in turn, led to the establishment of what we know as Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) and, just as importantly, the advent of the chronometer.

Charles was not alone in this quest: in France, King Louis XIV had hired Dominique comte de Cassini, the great French astronomer, with the hope that he could solve the problem. The first nation to reach this goal would be able to dominate the trade routes, secure new colonies, and exploit their resources. Six sovereigns would reign over England and a century would pass before this challenge was met, most notably by the invention of a “sea clock” with such an accuracy that it was an order of magnitude above anything else in existence.

GREENWICH In last September’s Northwest Yachting, I wrote about the preservation of Cutty Sark in Greenwich, southeast London, on the south bank of the River Thames. But the port has even greater significance. Greenwich was already famous among navigators all over the world as the home of the zero (prime) meridian of longitude and Greenwich Mean Time.

The time keeper that accomplished all of this was literally invented by a self-taught clockmaker who began his quest 300 years ago, and his creation was so amazing that a new word was coined to describe it. The “chronometer.” At the same time, the existing instrument for measuring the altitude of celestial bodies, the quadrant or octant, was refined into the sextant by inventors in London and colonial Philadelphia. The trigonometric tables and nautical almanac were then compiled in Greenwich.

These three items remained basically unchanged for 200 years from the time George

Vancouver explored the Northwest in 1792 until the first Vendee Globe Race in 1992. When ambitious yachtsmen began crossing oceans in the early 1900s, a reliable sextant and chronometer often cost as much as all the other gear on a small sailing yacht. It was only with the onset of World War II that the Hamilton Watch Company in the United States perfected the process of mass production, which enabled them to produce thousands of their superb Hamilton chronometers for the United States Navy.

Then the GPS system built for the US military was opened to public use in the 1990s, freeing yachtsmen from the need to master the sextant and the obscure calculations. It was not coincidence that ocean cruising quickly began to grow in popularity. Today this may sound like ancient and rather boring history to readers who grew up in the digital age and routinely carry a smart phone that can tell their position to within a few feet.

DOING THE “TIME WARP” IN GREENWICH It’s true that GMT was dethroned in 1972 by UCT (Coordinated Universal Time), established by an array of atomic clocks around the world that re-define the meaning of the “right time.”

But the number of visitors to the UNESCO World Heritage Site in Greenwich has continued to rise, 10 million people visit annually. Even when there is snow on the ground, tourists from all over Europe make the pilgrimage up the hillside from the Cutty Sark past the National Maritime Museum to stand on the prime meridian, commonly called the “Greenwich Line.”

Outside the observatory is a 24-hour electric clock set into the wall that still tells Greenwich Mean Time. Inside the courtyard, a plain brass strip set in the concrete represents the zero meridian that originates directly under the base of observatory’s main telescope. Between them, these symbols of time and place effect people in very strange ways. It’s as if a magical time warp surrounds the hill.

How else to explain the compulsion to stand astride the line with one foot in the eastern hemisphere and one in the west? Having been there many times in my youth, I was accustomed to this, so being a lot older and slightly wiser, I stood to one side and stayed out of the wind, to observe the scene. Within a minute, I was rewarded by a group of fashionably-dressed young Continued on Page 50 The reign of Charles II, seen here in his coronation portrait in 1661, restored relative normalcy to England following the English Civil War and the Commonwealth era.

It was this stability that allowed Charles to devote time and money to building and refining England’s martime fleet and methods.

To Charles and his advisors, superior navigational abilities meant supremacy over world trade - and rival empires in France, Portugal, and Spain.

American Ingenuity Modern historians have made Harrison the hero of the search for longitude, but the full realization of navigational science was like the many triangles drawn in celestial navigation. The other two sides of the method are the optical sextant (originally an octant) to measure the altitude of the sun and stars, and the tables to correct the sight and convert it into an accurate position fix.

Nathaniel Bowditch, c. 1830

Two men independently developed the octant (the early version of the sextant) around 1730: John Hadley (1682–1744), an English mathematician, and Thomas Godfrey (1704 – 1749), a glazier in Philadelphia. Hadley generally gets the greater share of the credit because London and the Royal Society were at the center scientific research. Thomas Godfrey (1704 – 1749) was an optician and inventor in the American colonies, who invented his octant around 1730.

The tables were completely overhauled and simplified by Nathaniel Bowditch (1773 – 1838), an early American mathematician who re-wrote the book used for ocean navigation. His masterpiece, The New American Practical Navigator, was published in 1802, but is still carried on board every commissioned U.S. Naval vessel. Interestingly, he had no interest in ships or sailing. His work earned him membership of the Royal Societies of London and Edinburgh.

women speaking an East European language, who proceeded to perform splits and back-bends on “the line!”

They might, like Alice in Wonderland, “have not the slightest idea what longitude was,” but doubtless the pictures of them on the line were online within minutes, completing the circle of technical innovation that began with a quill pen, parchment and the Royal Seal in 1675. This is a far cry from the 1950s when I was growing up in Greenwich, and the 180-acre park was practically deserted in winter, except for dog walkers.

TURNING BACK THE CLOCK I lived within sight of the park’s tall walls in a temporary housing estate laid out after World War II to replace the houses destroyed by the bombs of the blitz. On rainy weekends, I loved to wander through the quiet galleries of the museum looking at models of square riggers and paintings of sea battles, or admiring the Harrison clocks ticking away the centuries in the Observatory.

As if that wasn’t enough history, my path home led across the busy and uncharacteristically straight highway built over the ancient Roman Road from Dover, then across Blackheath — a large open commons dating back to Saxon times.

After the Norman invasion of 1066, the conquerors had carved a portion of the heath out for a walled hunting ground, which ended up in the king’s hands and eventually became Greenwich Royal Park. The young King Henry VIII found it convenient to house his mistresses in a fine house there overlooking the River Thames when he was staying at one of his favorite palaces on the river bank.

Henry established the Royal Navy, but it was his daughter Elizabeth I who witnessed its greatest achievement of that era: the defeat of the Spanish Armada in 1588. Besides the storm that hit them, the Spanish navigators had poor charts and no way to find their longitude, so many galleons were wrecked. Finding latitude was easier, and the method of taking a noon sight had been well-known for centuries. Sir Francis Drake and his fellow English sailors were equipped with a basic instrument for measuring the sun’s altitude called the quadrant, which had evolved from the rudimentary cross staff and astrolabe.

RUNNING DOWN THE LATITUDE Ships would sail north or south to the latitude of their destination, like Barbados where sugar plantations were being established, then turn toward it and try to stay on a fixed course west.

Columbus was familiar with this idea, which was known as “running down the latitude.” This hugely increased the distance they had to sail, extending the voyage by days or even weeks and increasing the likelihood of short rations, scurvy and starvation.

But on the return voyage to England the sun was often obscured, and it frequently ended in disaster. Ships were still wrecking with monotonous regularity, which was why Lloyds of London was born in a coffee house and soon became the center of maritime Insurance, So there were great expectations for Charles II’s new Royal Observatory, which took shape on the bluff above the village of Greenwich to a design by the leading British architect, Sir Christopher Wren, who went on to create the country’s greatest church, St. Paul’s Cathedral.

The King also appointed John Flamsteed to the new post of Astronomer Royal, and instructed him specifically to “apply himself with the most exact Continued on Page 52 50 NW YACHTING MARCH 2016

care and diligence to the rectifying of the tables of the motions of the heavens, and the places of the fixed stars, so as to find out the so much desired longitude.”

History does not record whether the king ever inquired how this early “research center” was progressing, but science was not his strong point, and he was known to favor more social pursuits, which led him to be called the Merry Monarch.

The gentlemen who were appointed to further the new science of astronomy were content to spend their lives observing and charting the solar system and the brighter stars in the hope of making the complicated “lunar sight” method practical for sailors. (However, their work did lead to many discoveries, including the motions of the planets, the path of comets, and a more precise definition of the speed of light.)

THE SCILLY ISLAND WRECK OF 1707 Their studies were barely disturbed by the disastrous wreck of an entire naval squadron on the Scilly Islands, just a few miles from the southwest tip of England, in 1707. The death toll was worse than most battles, with 1,550 sailors drowned. This caused a national outcry and ship owners put pressure on the British government to take action. It still took seven years before they passed the bill to establish the Board of Longitude, stating its great importance thus: “The Discovery of the Longitude is of such Consequence to Great Britain for the safety of the Navy and Merchant Ships as well as for the improvement of Trade....”

Several yarns about this wreck have been preserved, like the one about the sailor who argued with the captain over the ship’s position and was promptly hung from a yard arm. The author Dava Sobel quotes this in her best-seller Longitude without explaining how the story survived when all the sailors drowned!

The board was allowed to award cash prizes of up to £20,000 (millions in modern currency) to anyone demonstrating a new way to find longitude. Hundreds were inspired to submit bizarre ideas like a rope stretching across the ocean, or a

line of balloons anchored every few miles along the route. The idea of a near-perfect clock that could keep time to within three seconds a day on a ship in all weathers seemed equally Quixotic to the board. The state of the art at the time was Thacker’s clock that ran inside a vacuum jar, isolating it from atmospheric pressure changes, but this was nowhere near accurate enough, losing up to six seconds a day because it could not compensate for temperature.

JOHN HARRISON AND HIS CHRONOMETERS John Harrison was a working-class self-taught clockmaker from Yorkshire who started his study at the age of 21, focusing on ways to compensate clocks for temperature and the movement of a ship at sea. He quickly became obsessed with the goal and dedicated his entire life to this monumental task. He started making clocks in 1713.

H-1 (1737): After five years work, he finished his first Sea Clock (H1). He tested it by observing the transit of certain stars past fixed points on the roofs of his neighbors. He demonstrated this clock to members of the Royal Society and In 1736, sailed with the clock to Lisbon, Portugal on HMS Centurion. The clock lost about five seconds a day on the outward voyage, but performed admirably on the return trip. The Board of Longitude was impressed enough to grant Harrison £500 for further development.

H-2 (1741): He moved on to develop H2, a more compact and rugged version. In 1741, after three years of building and two years of on-land testing, H2 was ready, but by then Britain was at war with Spain again and the mechanism was deemed too important to risk falling into Spanish hands. In any event, Harrison suddenly abandoned the clock when he discovered a serious design flaw The Board granted him another £500, and he proceeded to work on H3 while waiting for the war to end.

H-3 (1759): Harrison spent 19 years working on this third clock, but it did not perform exactly as he would have wished, though much was learned from its construction. Its 753 parts

John Harrison’s intricate machines were unrivalled in their day, with each design becoming more complex during his 45 years of experimentation. The H1, at right, from 1737, was able to keep very accurate time for its era, losing about 5 seconds per day. By the time Harrison designed the H4, at left, the clock was just 1/10th the size of his H1 and lost just 5 seconds of time over a multi-week journey.

The Yacht, a popular pub within walking distance of the observatory, gives a hint of the area’s maritime history. It overlooks the Isle of Dogs, once a major building center for large sailing ships.

pioneered the use of bearings to reduce friction, weighted balances to compensate for the ship’s pitch and roll, and the use of two different metals to reduce expansion and contraction. But before he finished, he had abandoned the idea of the sea clock as a big machine in a box.

H-4 (1760): He designed H-4 to fit into a large watch case 5.2 inches in diameter. It took six years to construct with some diamond bearings and some lubricated movements. Harrison, by then 68 years old, sent it on its trans-Atlantic trial in the care of his son, William, in 1761. When HMS Deptford reached Jamaica, the watch was found to be only five seconds slow after correction, corresponding to an error in longitude of 1.25 minutes, or approximately one nautical mile.

JUST IN TIME When the ship returned, Harrison waited for the £20,000 prize, but the Board was persuaded that the accuracy could have been just luck, changed the rules again, and demanded another trial. Historians have pointed out that Harrison was challenging the reputation and authority of the aristocratic Royal Society and men like Sir Isaac Newton who considered him no better than a “mere mechanic” and favored the pure mathematical approach of the lunar distance method.

But this required a calm sea and a clear night sky, whereupon four or five trained navigators with corrected sextants would all shoot different Continued on Page 54

stars simultaneously, then embark on complex trigonometric calculations. This was a process that had been used onshore to find the longitude of distant islands, when there was plenty of time to double-check the readings. But at sea, it took at least four hours, and all this while the ship sailed on.

Yet Harrison was only given £7,500, and was told that he must demonstrate how H4 could be replicated before the final £10,000 could be paid.

He built a duplicate watch, but still the Board of Longitude was unmoved. Now he felt “extremely ill used by the gentlemen who I might have expected better treatment from.” He decided to enlist the aid of King George III himself.

He obtained an audience with the King in 1772, and left the next watch (H5) at the palace for the king to test personally. After 10 weeks of daily observations, it was found to be accurate to within one third of a second per day. King George then advised Harrison to petition Parliament for the full prize. He finally received another payment of £8,750 from Parliament in 1773, when he was 80 years old. This made his total payment £23,065 for 36 years of work.

But the board never awarded him the official prize or the honor that he deserved. Harrison spent his last years aware that the English class system had never recognized his contribution to navigation and done its best to keep him down.

He died in 1776, the year that the American colonists rebelled against the same King George.

Harrison modestly called his amazing machines “timekeepers” and left it to others to describe them as “chrono-meter,” meaning time-measure in Greek. Recognition came a little too late: a memorial tablet was unveiled in Westminster Abbey on March 24, 2006 by the Duke of Edinburgh. A bi-metal meridian line runs through the plaque that is engraved with its own longitude of 0 degrees, 7 minutes and 35 seconds west.

Of course, that was just the beginning for the marine chronometer: the next challenge was one we are familiar with — how to speed up the manufacture and lower the price. Kendall carefully copied the Harrison watch and this one went with Captain Cook on his last voyage. The government offered more financial incentives and watchmaker John Arnold simplified the design enough to enable him to farm out the work and build a few at a time in 1783. These were quickly bought by captains of the East India Company and the Royal Navy.

Continued from Page 52

In 1971, the Omega Marine Chronometer, a quartz wristwatch accurate to one second per month went on the market and made all clockwork timekeepers out-of-date. The last generation of ship chronometers used an electric quartz crystal mechanism with automatic correction via radio. You can find more about these and other advanced clocks in the Royal observatory’s exhibit of ship’s chronometers, which is considered the world’s finest collection and includes examples from many notable ships and seafaring nations.

Today, quartz plays the same role in everyday timekeepers as the pendulum, just a lot quicker: it vibrates at a resonant frequency many thousands of times a second. Cesium has a far higher resonant frequency even than quartz — 9,192,631,770 Hz, to be precise. This is one reason it was used to make the first of the next generation of super “atomic” clocks—correct to just one second in three years to support the host of satellites going into orbit.

But the arms race for perfect time was on again—the second generation of scientific clocks were accurate to one second in 1.4 million years. This pursuit has now passed beyond any understanding with a clock that would only be a second out if it had started keeping time back in the Jurassic Period. The ultimate goal is a clock that would only have lost a second since the earth began--accurate to a second in five billion years.

But the demand was enormous, and not being met by these methods. Amazingly, the industry had to wait for the expiry of Arnold’s patent for the “spring detent” in the 1790s before other watchmakers could try their hand. Thomas Earnshaw was the most successful, and by the early 1800s it was considered a poor decision to save money making a voyage without a timekeeper since the Royal Navy was supplying all its bigger vessels with chronometers.

STILL MARKING TIME On my return to the Observatory after almost 50 years absence, I found all three of Harrison’s large clocks still ticking away the decades as they have since they were re-discovered and restored in the 1920s. The H4 watch is also on display, but

is not running because it needs lubrication every three years. Another way to find the “right time” is to be within view of the observatory at 1 PM, when you can still see the high-tech 19th century system that communicated Greenwich mean time to the sailing ships in the Port of London. It is simply a red ball on the top of the tower that is ceremonially dropped down its shaft.

If you find this as interesting as I do, and want to learn more, I recommend: 1.

CRUISING

WIND

There’s nothing quite like reaching along in a good steady breeze under a powerful spinnaker. Miles disappear under the keel and the boat feels as spritely as she ever will, leaving a quarter wake or sometimes even a bit of a rooster tail. Life onboard is generally comfortable with the wind behind the boat flat. While racers know these conditions well, cruisers have often shied away fearing the inevitable takedown of the mighty sail. Efforts have been made to eliminate those challenges, and the latest and greatest of these, a combination of a “Code 0” spinnaker and a top-down furler, is presented here courtesy of Editor Emeritus Bruce Hedrick, Ullman Sails Manager Chuck Skewes and Northwest Rigging’s Andy Schwenk.

The Snuffer

By Bruce Hedrick, Northwest Yachting

T

o get cruisers to use a spinnaker has always been a battle.

In fact, as the popularity of cruising over racing began to evolve in the mid-70s, and the thought was that if you used a spinnaker, you were no longer cruising. By the late 70s, cruising had clearly become the most popular segment of sailing as more and more racers got out of racing.

With that evolution these former racers began to try and figure out what to do with those large turtles full of old nylon that were just taking up space in the garage. There were also those lingering memories of just how much faster you used to go downwind with a spinnaker and now going wing and wing just wasn’t cutting it.

The problem was now that you were cruising, you simply didn’t have a crew you could order to get that kite set. Sailors being sailors, they soon figured out that the problem in all of this was the pole and how do you control all that fabric with you being the only crew. The solution to this started by leaving the pole at the dock, freeing up important foredeck space for that new windlass or inflatable. Next came that memory of what would happen if you launched the spinnaker and the crew forgot to get the guy into the end of the pole. You simply reached up a bit, the spinnaker flew just fine and you had time to get things under control.

So why not fly the spinnaker more like a headsail and tack it to the headstay and control the height of the tack with the Racers with spinnakers aloft old foreguy? Sure, you had to in 1979, Pamlico sound, reach a bit more but it worked North Carolina. and with the autopilot on, you could manage things.

I’m not really sure how the spinnaker snuffer or sock came into being, however, once you saw it in action, you knew it was a solution. My real epiphany to cruising with the spinnaker in a snuffer came when we were delivering a Valiant 40 from Seattle to the Virgin Islands via the Panama Canal in 1979. The problem then was that you never knew if the next port had good fuel or simply had diesel at all, so you were constantly balancing fuel versus distance. And that area from Mexico to the Big Ditch was a stretch of notoriously light air, the Gulf of Tehuantepec a notable exception.

We found that with the spinnaker in a snuffer, you could just leave it rigged, either up or on deck, and if it got light, you could just drop the main and deploy the kite to fly by itself. It made the difference between powering and sailing plus really extended the range. If the wind came up, you simply snuffed the kite, rehoisted the main, and you were off again. We always had two

If the wind came up, you simply snuffed the kite, re-hoisted the main, and you were off again. people on deck so there was no need to wake the off-watch. One person could do all of this. We explained this to other cruisers who simply could not believe we were using a spinnaker.

As products have progressed and improved, the snuffer has made its way back to racing sailors and in 1993 we sailed the TransPac on a Santa Cruz 50 with just six crew — three watches of just two crew. We had two kites in snuffers, and in squalls we would just snuff the kite completely or as we later figured out, just reefed the kite to gybe in the middle of the squall. All could be done by the two on deck, from the cockpit. The new, top-down furlers are a logical development to this technology and will make it easier for more folks to enjoy downwind sailing, regardless of how conditions change. continued on page 62

The A-Sail to the Code 0

By Chuck Skewes, Loft Manager, UIlman Sails Pacific Northwest

symmetrical spinnakers have had several names by different sailmakers and sailors over the years. Before the mid-1980s there were not really any asymmetrical spinnakers common in sailing.

There were large genoas that were made of nylon that either had a few hanks holding them to the forestay or a wire luff and flew free but they were not truly downwind sails.

In the mid 80s the Australian 18’s started making a sail that was used on a sprit. The class had very few rules other than the waterline had to be no longer than 18’. So to pile sail area on the standard pole became too hard to use.

The International 14 Class followed suit, and subsequently small light keelboats like the J/80 and Melges 24 adopted them as well. As the sail development went so did the rigging and ease of use. This then migrated to the cruising

The Top-Down Snuffer

By Andy Schwenk, Owner, Northwest Rigging

T

he top down spinnaker furling concept is the only truly revolutionary product I have seen in the rigging industry since I bought Northwest Rigging ten years ago. The concept of setting, gybing, and dousing the spinnaker without ever leaving the cockpit is the safest, easiest and best system for handling the spinnaker on the market today.

This technology is utilized on megayacht rigs that soar as much as 300 feet on deck and instances where a spinnaker snuffer is simply not up to the task. Not all top-down spinnaker furlers are created equal, in fact some are not top-down furlers at all. Ask your favorite rigger or sailmaker which brand they prefer and why.

This technology is not new but it has grown quickly with the new type sailboat models with the large mainsails and small headsails. When you turn downwind you either are going to have to enjoy the smell of the diesel exhaust wafting in over the transom or set some canvas to get that furniture moving downwind.

Enter the spinnaker furler. The key to the magic is the torsion line that carries the torque up to the head of the spinnaker. They all use a continuous line furler at the base. The torsion line is a flexible rope that is designed to flex but will not (or should not) twist. Imagine you are sitting at the dock thinking this would be a great day to fly the spinnaker. Before your guests even arrive you can hoist the spinnaker in its furled state and most people don’t even know you are ready to set the spinnaker on a moment’s notice. Once you are ready, simply

MEXICO A GUIDE TO TEMPORARY STORAGE IN MEXICO AND THE AMERICAS

by Carolyn and Bob Mehaffy

M

any Pacific Northwest boaters who depart for Mexico in the fall expect to return to cool northern waters after a few months. However, those with extended cruising ambitions will discover that Mexico itself merits years, rather than months, of exploration, and a number

of these southbound explorers must occasionally lay up their boats in in the tropics.

Some visit friends and relatives back in the States while others need to return due to boat equipment failures or health concerns. These departures can last longer than expected, and adequate preparation for extended lay ups is an important process for cruisers who care for their boats.

60 NW YACHTING MARCH 2016

Whatever the cause for cruise interruptions, sailors must decide where they can safely store their boats while they’re not aboard. In the course of our most recent cruises between 2000 and 2014, we laid up our boat fourteen times between three and seven months per absence, and developed a standard lay up

procedure over our fourteen years cruising the tropics for our Hardin 45 ketch, Carricklee.

At one point in our cruise along the coast of Ecuador, we laid up Carricklee in La Libertad while we flew to San Francisco to visit loved ones and buy replacement parts to rebuild our Borg-Warner trans-

mission. That same year another cruising couple we knew laid up in South America while they flew to Los Angeles to buy parts for a total rebuild of their boat’s engine.

They returned a few weeks later with two heavy suitcases filled with what was needed to rebuild the failed Pathfinder diesel. Such stories are commonplace in Mexico, and most cruising destinations beyond, because, often, these locations do not have the parts needed to repair our boats. In the tropics, we, as do most cruising sailors we know, prefer to lay up our boat during the summer months. These are the months most likely to have heavy rain, high humidity, and hurricanes,

none of which is on anyone’s list of pleasurable experiences.

When given the choice, we prefer not to worry about the various ways a boat can sink and store ours on the hard. When we’ve had no choice, because either our desired location has no lay up capability or our insurance carrier will not approve of a facility on the hard, we leave our boat on the water, ideally in a slip.

We left our boat on a mooring at the Barillas Yacht Club in El Salvador rather than in a slip because it was the only option, but felt confident in the security of Carricklee in this instance for three primary reasons.

First, the marina was sheltered in an estuary that made a 90-degree curve

inland almost immediately beyond its mouth. The geography gave the boats inside complete protection from the ocean’s vagaries, if not from the wind and lightning. Second, our fee included regular surveillance of the moored boats by yacht club personnel. Finally, we took advantage of the option to hire one of the men working there to go aboard our boat once a week to run the engine for an hour, open the hatches to air out belowdecks, and to check the bilge for water intrusion.

Many lay up preparations are the same regardless of location while others are dependent upon the facilities and protection from heavy weather, sun, and rodents. We have

long lists of above and below deck chores, and always allow about a month to combine “vacations” off the boat with work days.

For cruising sailors who typically live aboard, some of the lay up preparations must be done at the last minute. As more and more systems get “put to bed,” the boat becomes less and less habitable. We begin the process early by preparing for storage anything to do with sailing the boat.

Though other boaters might not do so, we remove and fold all the sails. Even good covers will not fully protect sails from the many hours of direct sunlight in these lower latitudes. Wind is another danger

to the integrity of sails left furled on deck, though we can minimize the danger from heavy winds and hurricanes by choosing protected areas for laying up. We still assume the boat will need to be prepared for strong winds and gusts of at least forty knots when squalls, or even hurricanes, pass.

Another reason to remove our sails and store them below decks is the predilection of various flying critters to build nests in the sails of unoccupied, and sometimes occupied, boats. We have returned to our laid up Carricklee a number of times to find mud dauber nests in various nooks and crannies. Although Continued on Page 62 NW YACHTING MARCH 2016 61

Sailors in the still waters of Marina Real, San Carlos, Mexico.

Continued from Page 61

we found the nests in the corners inside our dodger, we managed to keep them from setting up house in our sails by storing the sails below.

Birds are perhaps the most common interlopers, and mangrove swallows, in particular, favor the folds of sails for nest building.

Another common visitor to laid up boats in the tropics is the bat.

Friends of ours returned to their boat to find a colony of bats roosted in the quiet areas inside the sails. The dirtied main was hardly flattering when hoisted.

Whether insects, birds, or bats choose to nest in the sails, the results are not merely a trivial mess. Dark, indelible stains become weak spots in the sailcloth. In the case of birds, the dilemma of what to do with a nest full of eggs or chicks causes distress to some cruisers. To protect protect the wildlife of our watery world, some cruisers have even opted to stay put until the chicks have fledged, a delay many of us would prefer not to have.

To store the sails below deck, we remove the cushions from a berth

and place the folded and bagged sails (main, mizzen, genoa, and staysail jib) on the wood surface of the berth base. The removal of the cushions is important because over a long period of lay up the heavy weight of the sails can leave permanent imprints on the cushions.

We make sure to minimize contact between the sail bags, the hull, and bulkheads to allow air to circulate and inhibit mildew development.

Although we have never done so, many cruisers also remove their halyards and sheets to eliminate damage from the sun and weather while the boat is inactive. We’ve not decided if the savings justifies the time, but as we cruise to even more remote areas where replacement lines are scarce, we may reexamine our practice on this issue. We do remove all extra lines that hang from our pin rails, such as lines for moorings, snubbers, and guys. We stretch the lines out on a dock or the foredeck, hose them off with fresh water(if available), and let them dry in the sun before stowage.

To prepare the sportboat and

motor for storage, we take the sportboat ashore, turn it over, and scrub off any barnacles and other growth accumulated from the tepid tropical waters. Next we run all the fuel out of the two outboard motors, 15hp and 4hp Yamahas, and flush the cooling systems with fresh water before storing the motors on one of the wood benches in the cockpit. We then hoist the sportboat onto the foredeck where we turn it bottom up, cover it, and tie it down securely.

The next step is to remove everything else on deck not permanently attached, and even some equipment, to protect it from the sun and weather and temptation. Many marinas provide twenty-four hour security, but we do what we can to keep equipment from becoming too attractive to resist. So far we have not lost any equipment to thieves.

As with all who lay up their boats in the tropics, we’re careful to disconnect every piece of electronic equipment aboard before we leave the boat. Electrical storms can be a daily occurrence during the tropical rainy season, and a lightning strike, even if it doesn’t hit the boat directly, can destroy all sensitive electronics aboard.

We learned a lesson at anchor in Bahia de las Banderas a few years ago when we encountered an electrical storm near La Cruz de Huanacaxtle.

One lightning strike was close enough to destroy our wind generator’s diodes. When we leave our boat, we disconnect all antenna, power, and ground leads even if for only a few days while traveling inland. So far,we have had no other damage to the electronics aboard Carricklee.

We also remove the batteries from all battery-powered devices, otherwise, the batteries will almost surely corrode and often destroy

connected equipment in a mess of disintegrated metal. Flashlights, handheld GPS, portable depth sounder, handheld anemometer, and portable radio are just a few devices that come readily to mind.

Cruisers have reported pressurized cans, such as those holding WD-40, Boeshield, or, in the galley, Pam, that exploded in the intense summer heat. As a result, many who lay up their boats in the tropics remove such cans before leaving to avoid damage. We wrap all pressurized cans in an oil-absorbing blanket to store in the dry bilge and leave our full boat awning in place to control heat below decks.

We leave the engine and house batteries connected to the electrical system and tie off the wind generator to avoid the risk of a power surge in case of regulator failure. Such a surge of amps can readily destroy the house and engine batteries aboard. Another good reason to tie off the wind generator is to lessen the risk of damage to the generator in exceptionally heavy winds.

To further ensure the health of the engine and house batteries, we also remove the three large solar panels mounted on the port and starboard rails aft of the cockpit and store them below. We leave only the three small solar panels permanently mounted on the aft rail to keep the engine and house banks fully charged while the boat is laid up.

Another chore to prepare the boat is to fill the two ninety-gallon fuel tanks. Full fuel tanks incur minimal condensation and retard algal bloom. Nevertheless, we also add an algaecide for further assurance that we’ll not return after the summer season to find our diesel fuel full of algae. At sea the wave action stirs up these algae which then plugs the fuel filter and kills the engine, often at the least propitious moments. In addition, we add a fuel stabilizer before we leave the engine unused for some months to keep the diesel fuel from deterioration.

While we prepare the engine for storage, we also change the engine oil, no matter how recently it has been changed. Used oil can etch the cylinder walls and bearings and damage the engine.

The fresh water tanks also require preparation. We drain most of the water and leave only three or four gallons in each tank to which we add about one-eighth cup of chlorine bleach to kill any organisms.This scheme has kept our tanks fresh so far. When we return to the boat,we flush these tanks thoroughly with fresh water to remove odor or taste of chlorine in the water.

Another problem we try to control is one caused by lack of cabin circulation. The humidity, particularly during the summer months, promotes luxuriant growth of algae and mildew whether the boat is laid up on the water or the hard.

W

hile security service comes with the monthly lay-up fee at most marinas, more personalized services such as this one

provided by Tony’s Boat Maintenance come at a reasonable price. These services are an excellent addition to securing a laid-up boat when the owners are far away.

We remove all cushions from the bunks and stand them against a bulkhead or other vertical surface to leave plenty of air circulating around them. To create more air space, we move books and plastic boxes away from the bulkheads or spread them out on the table or now cushion-less bunks.

To combat algae and mildew further, we wash the gel coat and painted surfaces below with a chlorine and water solution. We also apply a coat of lemon oil to protect the teak bulkheads, doors, and drawer fronts. Other sailors have said that oil attracts mildew, but we have never found that to be the case on Carricklee. In addition, we hire someone to open up the boat for an hour or more at least once a month to air out the below decks. This, perhaps, the most effective step we take to combat algae and mildew.

Boaters in the tropics must always be concerned with cockroach infestations. We clean out all food storage lockers with a water and chlorine solution. We give away or throw out all food items not sealed in hard plastic containers and deploy a fresh batch of roach motels under drawers and on locker floors.

So far, we’ve had no roaches aboard after our summer absences. Other boaters have not been so fortunate,

and luck has much to do with our pest-free history.

One of the ongoing tasks of lay up prep is to inventory supplies to bring down when we return to the boat. As we clean out lockers and drawers and wash the bulkheads with chlorine solution, we note items that are uncommon south of the border that will be needed for next cruising season. Favorite tea bags, vitamins, spare batteries, engine oil, water filters, zincs, and hoses are all typical examples.

One of our last preparations for the lay up is to ready the cockpit. We store all the cushions below zipped in the plastic panels that enclose the cockpit.These panels discourage the intrusion of unwanted guests, such as birds and mammals (both four and two legged). These panels also stop leaves, twigs, and other debris from blowing into the cockpit during the anticipated strong winds. Such debris can clog the cockpit drains and allow water from the heavy rains to accumulate on the cockpit sole and spill below decks. Most cockpit enclosures do not fit tightly enough to keep all the rain water out, nor inhibit insects such as wasps.

Finally, we snap on the exterior covers that protect the panels and cockpit from the sun. We close most of the seacocks to guard against

water and insect intrusion, but leave the ones in the cockpit drains open.

Heavy tropical downpours and closed cockpit seacocks can result in a sunken boat.

We believe that having someone go aboard to look for problems is especially prudent when the boat is laid up in the water, as Carricklee was in Mazatlán. We arranged to have Tony Evans of Tony’s Boat Management look after our boat.

Our contract with Tony specified that he would check the bilge water level, run the engine for at least thirty minutes, open up the boat to air it out, look for signs of leaks and unwanted critters, and check dock lines and awning tie-downs every three weeks. One of Tony’s crew members dove down to clean the bottom and check the zincs on the hull and prop every six weeks.

Tony sent us a detailed email after every inspection. One email after a windstorm informed us of two failed boat cover zippers. He sewed the zipper shut so the cover wouldn’t be destroyed on the next windy day. Fortunately, this was the most serious issue.

While security service comes with the monthly lay up fee at most marinas, more personalized services such as Tony’s come at a reasonable price. His services are typical of what is available at many marinas in the tropics and these services are excellent additions to the security of a laid up boat when the owners are far away.

We don’t typically request someone to go aboard when Carricklee is laid up on the hard, but we always make sure security personnel patrol the storage area to monitor damage from high winds or animal intrusion.

Where one stores a boat in the tropics is a major issue for insurance coverage during potentially stormy summer months. Not all insurance companies cover boats in the area between 22 degrees north and 22 degrees south of the equator, an area that includes much of Mexico.

We always contact our carrier before we decide to leave our boat in any particular facility.

Marine insurance companies also specify the surfaces on which boats must be stored if they are to be covered. Storage surface limitations caused problems for some boaters in La Paz, Mexico when a hurricane hit and blew their boats off the stands a few years ago.

Some boaters didn’t notice policy specifications that boats must be on stands placed on concrete or asphalt surfaces. A number of the overturned boats, laid up over sand, weren’t covered.

Other marinas, such as Marina Seca in San Carlos, secure boats between steel pilings driven into the sand some twenty feet apart.

Carricklee was once laid up between the Marina Seca pilings and our insurance covered us: We never fail to check with our current carrier before we leave our boat in any facility.

To prepare our boat for a lay up entails no small amount of labor, whether we leaveCarricklee in Mexico, Hawaii, Central America, South America, or the Caribbean.

We are encouraged, when we return months later to see the boat and equipment good condition, to keep doing what we’ve been doing for so many years. We continue to hope for that big sigh of relief every time we return to Carricklee to find all is well.

The Allures 52 is an innovative yacht designed to sail the world’s oceans with exceptional safety, comfort, and elegance. This flagship aluminum hull yacht has a lifting keel and luxurious contemporary interior design. Essential running rigging leads aft into the cockpit where the skipper commands twin helms. An aft swimming platform and elegant arched gantry, which can be used to mount davits or equipment, grace the stern. The panoramic coachroof has five fixed 10 mm acrylic-glass windows and gives the Allures 52’s sleek, low-profile lines a decidedly futuristic look. She boasts two headsails, one removable headstay, and lazy jacks for the main.

She’s built for cruising all climes in comfort, and features such as mosquito netting on all deck hatches should come in handy. The interior leaves little to be desired. The navigation station features a double panoramic chart table with storage lockers, two bookshelves, and an anthracite instrument panel. The galley features a central bar that blends with a large marble multipurpose counter, and the L-shaped side bench of the saloon is the perfect space to unwind.

A gimballed stove-oven with three burners and double glass door, wooden door handle, pan holder, and electronic ignition should be able to handle just about anything the galley cook throws at it. A built-in sink with synthetic marble worktop and integrated draining rack, two fitted sinks, and a waste bin will deal with the post-dinner mess. There are two layouts, the Ocean and Horizon versions, with relatively minor adjustments to the forward cabin and head. A luxuriant private shower with direct air circulation is a big plus.

The Volvo Penta D2-75 sail-drive 75 hp engine powers a fixed three-bladed propeller and will be useful in the doldrums and beyond. The engine is enclosed in acoustic insulation with absorbent foam/visco-elastic foam compound for a nice quiet ride.

The Hatteras 70 motoryacht is an elegant luxury yacht that honors her proud lineage in true style. Wide side decks grant easy access to the vessel’s posh bow lounge, and the boat’s open, Mediterraneanstyle flybridge offers ample sunbathing opportunities. The deckhouse saloon and galley arrangement is bountifully lit with panoramic windows that offer a nearly 360-degree view.

The yacht’s expansive, full-beam master stateroom features plenty of sleeping, lounging, and personal space. The yacht is loaded with features such as 90,000 BTU air conditioning and 230-volt AC electric water heaters that bring all the comforts of land to sea.

The standard Hatteras 70 is powered by twin CAT C32A diesel engines which should get the job done nicely. The standard hydraulic 32 hp dual prop bow thruster adds maneuverability that any skipper can appreciate. Guests will enjoy the saloon’s home theater surround sound, cocktail table, and the yacht’s generous swim platform with boarding ladder, all sure to be crowd-pleasers.

Paragon Super Sport 28 Carbon Marine, a Canadian-based boat manufacturer, made waves at the 2016 Miami International Boat Show when it launched the world’s first fully exposed carbon fiber production hull, the Paragon Super Sport 28. This good-looking supercar of the sea aims for it all with alleged greater top speed and superior gas mileage thanks to its high-performance carbon-fiber design. The Paragon Super Sport 28 seeks to up the ante for high-performance, offshore capable craft that are less than thirty feet, LOA.

Moody 45DS

Steiger Craft 31 DV Miami

The Moody Deck Saloon 45 is an innovative luxury yacht that offers many unique features. For example, the “one level living” design is certainly novel, as the cabin and cockpit sit on the same level with only sliding doors to separate these two spaces. The interior and exterior merge into one spacious expanse when the doors are opened, and panoramic windows in the cabin create a light and airy living space.

Practical measures like the bulwark and guardrail that run continuously around the deck should keep everyone safely aboard, but one can open the swimming platform and leap into one of Desolation Sound’s warm-water swimming spots in two strides. The Moody Deck Saloon 45 has one foot firmly in the now with standard ergonomic features like the smart table on deck and pop-up TVs, yet the fine handcraft woodwork gives the interior an elegant, traditional feel. She comes with a plethora of optional features ranging from a washing machine and dryer to a Raymarine plus upgrade package with all the toys.

Many of the Moody Deck Saloon 45’s features make going to sea easy. For example, a self-tacking jib, a furling mainsail, and dual cockpit helms are standard. Bow and stern thruster joysticks give the skipper fine control in the tight spaces. The Moody Deck Saloon was built to offer comfort and safety in all weather. For example, the boat’s sliding bimini can offer protection from the elements or be opened to let in the sunshine.

Best Day Yacht Sales introduced the Pacific Northwest to the nononsense Steiger Craft fishing line at the 2016 Seattle Boat Show, and the Steiger Craft 31 DV Miami will soon arrive to the Puget Sound.

This no-nonsense pilothouse vessel boasts a large working cockpit for serious fishermen and is built to keep her passengers safe and comfortable in all conditions. One only has to glance at the ten rod holders on the gunnel, 120-gallon in-deck fish locker, and 100 gallon in-deck live well to know a good day of fishing is ahead.

An integrated half wall separates the pilothouse from the weather and adds a large portside lounge complete with a built-in tackle center. The 31 DV Miami’s helm features trim-tab controls and large mounting space for today’s super-sized MFDs and other electronics. A porcelain head, large V-berth, and an optional pullout refrigerator will be appreciated during long excursions and overnight cruises.

The Steiger 31 DV Miami packs a punch with standard twin 300 hp outboards (twin 350 hp engines are optional) and optional bow thruster for increased maneuverability. The yacht’s 300-gallon fuel capacity gives the DV Miami a purported 400+ nautical miles of fishhunting range, and it’s reassuring to know that Steiger backs up the 31 DV Miami with their lifetime hull guarantee. This vessel has serious fishing in its DNA and is made to get you to the canyon where the big boys bite.

NEW BOATS Garcia Exploration 52 The Garcia Exploration 52 is a new bluewater yacht from Racoupeau Yacht Design that’s made to take whatever punishment the sea can dish out during an offshore adventure. The boat’s forefoot chainplate for towing and ice breaking says it all. Additional features like the twin aluminum rudder configuration, protective skeg, and Jefa selfaligning bearings are all appreciated by weathered veterans, but there is aesthetic beauty aboard as well — like the double glazed saloon window that opens above the galley. Three layouts are offered: The Standard Version, the 3 Cabin Version, and 2 Cabin Version with a large and comfortable guest cabin. All three versions have a spacious forward master cabin with private head and a separate shower.

Practical features such as seacocks positioned above the waterline and foam acoustic and thermal insulation abound. Centrally located water and fuel tanks can be ballasted to port and starboard.

This family of boats emphasizes the spirit of adventure and the True North 50 offers a versatile, rugged platform from which one can launch a ten-foot sailboat (when the modular transom seats are moved to the sides) or tender. Her plumb bow and reverse transom give her an iconic, classic look.

However, modern comfort isn’t sacrificed aboard the True North 50. The yacht’s open galley layout, complete with pullout refrigerator/ freezer and separate icemaker, is well-suited to entertain gatherings

of friends and family. Also, different layout options for the True North 50 are available with amenities such as a washer and dryer. Volvo Penta’s IPS600 Inboard Performance System provides the True North 50’s propulsion needs and purportedly boast reduced fuel emissions, increased acceleration, and reduced sound emissions.

Furuno Doppler Radome This month’s feature product pushes oceangoing technology to a whole new level. Furuno’s DRS4D-NXT utilizes solid-state Doppler radar technology and is one of only two radars that feature this advanced capability (for now). The DRS4D-NXT is loaded with new innovations, notably Furuno’s proprietary ARPA Target Analyzer function that hazard-colors objects based upon their speed and direction. For example, the radar will present a stationary landmass as a green target while a vessel that’s moving toward your vessel at speeds over three knots is colored red. Operators can check a detected object’s

speed and vector information, and the radar can simultaneously track up to one hundred ARPA targets. Users can also set alarms to ensure that they don’t accidentally sail over unsafe areas (e.g., waters where organized events are taking place).

There is no start-up warming time, which saves valuable time at the helm or navigation station.

Additionally, the DRS4D-NXT has simultaneous dual-range capabilities to provide both longrange and short-range views of your surroundings at all times. Heading up to the San Juans on a foggy day? Set your ranges to 5 nm to dodge the ferries and 10 nm to keep an eye for expected

landmarks. It is worthwhile to note the radar’s range is .0625 to 36 nm, but the maximum range decreases to 12 nm when dual range is used.

This robust, waterproof radar is rated to IP26 weatherproofing standards and can tackle temperatures from -13ºF to 131ºF, meaning that it will be right at home on Pacific Northwest waters. Installation of the 16.1-pound unit is simple and—says Furuno—users should never have a reason to open their radomes.

Additionally, Furuno’s proprietary RezBoost beam-sharpening technology helps increase image resolution, while Furno’s latest Bird Mode feature helps fisherman find the flocks of seabirds that so often reveal the location of the big haul. Sailors will especially appreciate the DRS4D-NXT’s closed radome construction, which ensures that errant running rigging or sails won’t accidentally tangle with an openarray system. Finally, the DRS4D-NXT’s Doppler technology allows mariners of all ages (and heights) to quickly tell if a target is a threat to safe navigation thanks to the unit’s red-green target coloring scheme.

Irrespective of whether the day’s agenda involves sailing or powerboating, all vessels would benefit from a great radar. Depending on your needs, Furuno’s DRS4DNXT could be your ticket.

Super MAX Anchor

FLIR Thermal Imaging AX8 When the squall is nigh and the engine is working overtime, a captain needs to keep an eye on the kicker to make sure everything is shipshape. The FLIR AX 8 is a small thermal sensor with imaging capabilities that provides continuous temperature monitoring. Compact and affordable, the FLIR AX8 connects to a display and allows mariners to easily monitor hardto-reach locales from the comfort of their helm. The AX8 has alarm capabilities to warn of pre-set temperature overloads, and it can also provide temperaturetrend analysis.

One can view thermal imagery, visible light imagery, or the two combined with FLIR’s proprietary, patent-pending MSX multispectral dynamic imaging. MSX embosses the visible camera on the thermal image and creates sharper edge detail, the ability to read labels, and better contextual awareness. The AX8 measures 54 x 25 x 95 mm and makes for easy installation and placement. The AX8 is Ethernet/ IP and Modbus TCP compliant. Alarm results can easily be shared to a programmable logic controller (PLC), an industrial computer control system that continuously monitors the state of input devices. Digital inputs and outputs are available for alarms and control of the camera.

The American manufactured Super MAX Anchor is made to provide a strong hold on any seabed in all kinds of conditions, from seagrass to coral and from tidal currents to strong winds. The anchor is manufactured in the USA out of high-tensile strength American tool-grade steel, and is treated to hot dip galvanization to guarantee years of use and abuse.

The Super MAX anchor is available in rigid and pivoting shanks models. The anchor’s pivoting shank model allows for many deployment options well suited to a variety of seabeds. The SuperMax is made in numerous sizes and is designed to work on vessels up to 100,000 lbs.

Garmin Headset

Every once in a while a new piece of tech comes along that reminds us that it is pretty great to live in 2016. The Garmin Nautix is a hands-free display that attaches to most sunglasses and displays speed, heading, water depth and temperature, wind direction, engine RPMs, and more.

The sleek device can be tethered to compatible instruments and systems to stream information onto twelve different screens.

The touch panel is glove- and wet- weather friendly and is used to scroll between data displays.

“The Garmin Nautix is another example of our innovative head-mounted display technology that’s purpose built and designed for dedicated activities like cruising, fishing, or sailing,” said Dan Bartel, Garmin Vice President of worldwide sales.

“Boaters can now have a continuous view of critical boat data at all times, which is beneficial in a number of on-the-water situations, including when you’re

looking for fish and want to see a change in water temperature or depth, if you’re starting a race and need to see the countdown timer, or if you have to hand over the helm to someone else for any reason, like to drop anchor.”

The Garmin Nautix is compatible with Garmin’s GPSMAP 7400/7600 and the new 8400/8600 series multifunction displays (MFDs). The unit weighs about an ounce (29.7 grams) and has eight hours of always-on battery life. An integrated ambient light sensor and color display ensure readability in all conditions, and the glasses can be worn with both polarized and prescription l e nses. The Garmin Nautix is expected to be available in April with a suggested retail price of $399.99.

Sea Dog LED Square Flood Light Cuda FishFillet Tools Cuda brand fishing products are made with strength, power, and agility in mind to provide essential tools for fresh and salt-water fishermen. Titanium bonded steels and alloys are purported by the manufacturer to make steel three times harder than untreated steel, as well as offer world-class corrosion and adhesive resistance.

Tired of the freshly caught Puget Sound coho slipping around during the fillet when underway? The 6” Cuda Skin Gripper is an innovative tool designed to grip fish’s skin during the filleting process, easing the job’s physical demands. The visible full tang aluminum-alloy construction and dual-position handle are durable and practical features that active anglers will likely appreciate.

Pair the Skin Gripper with a 4”, 6”, 7”, or 9” Cuda Flex Fillet Knife and you should be filletready anytime, anywhere. All the fillet knife models feature the brand’s precision ground flex edge and should last countless fishing trips.

Each knife has a corresponding ultra-light sheath with a reversible belt loop for a rightor left-side fit, as well as a waterdrain system.

Sometimes little things pack the biggest punches, and the LED square floodlight from Sea Dog is a prime example with a weight of 1.6 lbs. and panel dimensions of 4” by 5”. This compact floodlight has six super-bright LEDs that dish-out a whopping 1,000

lumens. The stainless powder Aluminum-coated bracket allows a user to mount the pint-sized torch just about anywhere, and a Sea Dog waterproof rating of IP-68 means it is likely to survive almost any journey across the wild blue yonder.

Trawlers looking for extra light on those dark foggy nights would do well with an array of these little powerhouses on a deck rail.

FUSION 750 Series Stereo

Tunes are part of the essential package for a great day on the water, and FUSION’s 750 Series delivers. The 750 Series Marine Entertainment System comes in two models, one with an internal UNI-Dock, which is designed to accept a smartphone within the stereo’s watertight chasis, and one with a dedicated DVD/CD player.

The DVD/CD version is loaded with both wired and

wireless FUSION-Link Control for command with a remote or the FUSION-Link app. The unit is loaded with Bluetooth streaming to connect with one’s favorite compatible device, and also interfaces with Apple iOS and MTP Android.

The optically bonded color LCD screen display is durable and optimized for daylight viewing, and the side-fin aluminum cooling sink produces greater thermal efficiency.

FUSION’s glass-filled composite

chassis are lightweight and improve the product’s environmental protection while electrically isolating the chassis for greater reliability.

The Class-D Amplifier provides higher RMS output than a standard stereo for louder and clearer audio while drawing less current.

The internal UNI-dock version securely protects and charges compatible Apple iOS and MTP Android/Windows devices for ease of play. This model is similar to the DVD/CD version but has a dual USB drive and multi-zone technology. The multi-zone ability allows for the creation of four audio zones, each with advanced localized menu controls.

The FUSION 750 Series has been extensively tested to perform in the harsh marine environment and should last through countless renditions of The Pirates of the Caribbean soundtrack as you hit the water this summer.

Intelian i5 Sat. Antenna Intellian’s i5 is the first of an entirely new category of Marine Satellite TV Systems that are built for vessels that are roughly 40’-60’ feet in length. This range represents a challenge because this class of yacht requires robust signal coverage as well as an antenna radome that doesn’t affect the vessel’s comfort or aesthetic.

The i5’s modest 20” reflector fits the bill with enough performance to provide reception of all major TV service providers to far flung places including popular Alaskan cruising grounds, the Bahamas, the Caribbean, and Mexico. Intellian’s proprietary iQ2 technology purportedly locks onto satellite signals up to four times faster than conventional systems and reduces motor noise up to 80%. The Intellian All Americas LNB system is standard and allows cruisers to pass between the USA, Caribbean, and Mexico without changing out equipment along the way.

The Intellian i5 comes with a three-year warranty and is loaded with practical technical features.

For example, embedded Wi-Fi enables an operator to control her i5 from the palm of her hand with Intellian’s Aptus app and a mobile device. A built-in GPS simplifies the installation process, enhances the unit’s tracking performance, and eliminates the need to integrate other onboard systems. Whether you’re heading north to Alaska for the summer or south to Mexico for the winter (or both), the Intellian i5 is built to ensure that you can still get your favorite satellite-TV feeds, irrespective of your lat/lon.

Visit intelliantech.com for more info on the i5 and other intelllian systems.

Trumpet Horn Cover Whisper Exhaust The components of a boat’s exhaust system are worth considering. For example, what is properly designed to handle back pressure requirements and noise reduction is not necessarily small enough to fit into the available space in the often crammed engine compartment. In other words, a good exhaust system fits and performs but won’t deafen the guests. It is also a bonus when the exhaust system doesn’t break the bank.

The compact and cost effective Whisper Exhaust from leading exhaust systems manufacturer Centek Industries was designed with these concerns in mind.

Centek claims the Whisper Exhaust can reduce exhaust noise by as much as 60%, which in turn makes for a sweet-sounding ride.

The Whisper Exhaust is available in a wide range of sizes and can be customized to fit a vessel’s specific space requirements.

Trumpet horns are a great audio-warning addition to any boat, but the horn’s opening can present some long-term problems.

Water intrusion can cause algal growth and the opening can entice wayward insects. A trumpet full of gunk is not going to be as loud or efficient as a properly maintained horn, and gunked-up horns will require cleaning to operate effi-

ciently again. Fortunately, Sea Dog has a solution to keep the insides of your trumpet horn dry.

This stainless steel trumpet tube cover fits most standard trumpet horns. Installation is literally a snap, simply place the cover over the trumpet tube opening and you’re good with a protected, clean horn that’ll be heard clear across Lake Union.

Non-Slip Rug Grip Rugs and floor mats can make great additions to a boat, but they often end up folded-up or slid out of the way. Wet, stumbling crew can skid on them and make a real mess of a cabin.

Fortunately, RugLock offers an interesting solution that literally comes from a can. This simple spray aerosol coating is a permanent spray-on, non-slip rug backing that keeps your rugs in place. Once sprayed onto a rug and applied to a cabin sole, RugLock establishes a seal between the flooring and the rug. Users can lift up their rugs to break the seal but RugLock won’t deposit any sticky residue on the floor.

AIS Mandate CYC Pod Regatta Deadline Approaches A Coast Guard mandate instated last year states that commercially self-propelled vessels operating on U.S. navigable waters must have a properly installed Automatic Identification System (AIS) by March 1, 2016. The rule affects commercial vessels such as fishing boats, tugs, and ferries. Some categories are required to install Class A type

transceivers, while other kind of vessel can use a much less-expensive AIS Class B transceiver. Here’s a look at the kind of vessels that must carry a Class A AIS and the kinds of vessels that are fine to sail with a Class B AIS transceiver.

The CWB’s new Wagner Education Center will greatly improve the Center’s on-site capabilities, which currently centers around a floating facility. This signature project will double the CWB’s size capacity for field-trip groups, enable longer-term historic boat restoration projects, off er more volunteer opportunities, present more exhibits, and facilitate additional boat building, woodworking, sailmaking, ropework, and other traditional maritime skills.

Phase I encompasses the construction of the entire structure, including interior framing and running utilities. This phase constitutes about 80% of the total project cost, while Phase II covers completion of the building’s interior. The CWB still needs to raise an additional $1.3 million to complete the entire project. The future looks bright for this venerable organization as it embarks upon its 40th year as a non-profit corporation that continues to grow with a 20% increase in core programs last year.

BUSINESS NOTES

Yachtworld’s “State of the Union” Report YachtWorld released its 2015 YachtWorld Market Index Report, a state of the boating industry master document that summarizes the top-line sales figures of the YachtWorld brokerage year in Europe and the USA. Six European countries are represented and the USA is broken down into seven regions including the Pacific Northwest. The report presents the number of boats sold, the total price and average sold price, average time to sale, median boat length, median model year, and more by brand and boat class.

Global trends between 2014 and 2015 show a modest increase in total sales from $5.42 billion to $5.65 billion. Additionally, there is an upward trend in global boat sales of 37,732 boats in 2014 to 37,980 boats in 2015.

The United States maintains an upward trend in total sales from $3.62 billion in 2014 to $3.70 billion in 2015. Interestingly, total number of boats sold decreased by about 1% from 30,269 boats to 30,077. Two positive trends were a 3% gain in the average final sold price and a five day reduction in the average time a boat was listed before sold. Paid price for powerboats increased by 4% while sailboat sales slipped by 2%. Overall, values in the United States moved up as sales volume eased. It appears that the industry in the United States is trending positively and toward fewer, more expensive sales.

There is some great news for our region of the Pacific Northwest. Sales volume barely increased, but the total value of boats sold grew by a whopping 67% due to the sale of expensive vessels over 80 feet. Powerboats dominated the economic land-

scape with an increase of $201.7 million to $359.7 million between 2014 and 2015, despite a small gain of 18 additional boat sales. Value of sailboats sold decreased from $30.2 million to $28.5 million. Average sailboat value dropped from $73,015 in 2014 to $65,904 in 2015 despite a small 18-vessel increase in sales.

Boats also sold 25 days on average faster than in 2014.

The bottom line for the Pacific Northwest is that business is booming well above global and national trends thanks to the sale of large, expensive motoryachts. The silver lining for the dip in the sailboat industry is for the prospective buyers among us. There are probably plenty of good deals waiting to be snapped up.

Every year when love is in the air and Valentine cards fly off the shelves, the good folks on that windswept rock in the central Salish Sea known as Orcas Island roll out the red carpet and send the fleet around neighboring Shaw Island. Free moorage at the most scenic marina and boatyard in the district is a strong attraction as well as a nicely done after-party at the Orcas Hotel. This is the first race in the new North Sound Sailing Championship that also includes the OHYC’s ‘Round Whidbey Race, Anacortes Windermere Regatta and CYC’s PITCH Regatta on Labor Day weekend.

Unlike the summer Shaw race, which allows you to round either clockwise or counter clockwise, Winter Shaw is the same course every year. Start between Orcas Hotel and the flagpole on Shaw Island, leave the island to starboard and finish in the same place.

This year all the boats completed the course in under three hours and the multi’s and Time Bandit in just over two. The start was civilized and even allowed for a hearty breakfast and plenty of colorful repartee as the fleet rafted-up at the pier near the ferry dock. The fleet hung around until the ferry that delivered many of the crew departed. The start was a mixed bag of jibs and genoas as a fickle breeze puffed-on and puffedoff. Nobody wanted to blow-up their new genoa during the first race of the season, but sailing underpowered in leftover chop is no fun either.

Picks were taken as the fleet beat out to Upright and Channel and then eased the sheets and set the kites at Flat Point. The current was rushing out San Juan Channel and big gains were swapped along the South Shaw Shore (say that three times fast). It was a challenge to enter Wasp Point at the correct time. The big boats were certainly on genoas

at this point (or should have been) but, nonetheless, the turtles were catching the hares as the breeze filled in behind them. It was finally a headsail reach to the finishing line. It was almost like it all ended too soon. Boats dropped crew at the ferry dock, who slipped away home or got on the cell phone with their Valentines to ensure smooth sailing on the homefront.

Suffice to say some familiar names were in or near the top of the results sheet, which is available at oiyc.org. Steph Schwenk and Betsy Wareham were first and second overall, and people may mistakenly think women dominated the top three out of five. Beware of Shannon Buys, for although he is a great sailor he is also a male. Alexia Fisher put the smack down on the fleet last year and Steph Schwenk again the year before that. Maybe those gentleman up North use this Valentine Race as a ploy to keep the ladies happy, but just you try and beat them and you might find out different.

—Andy Schwenk

The colorful spinnakers of the Valentine Race to Shaw Island dotted the sound.
