Five Souvenirs from the Sunshine State

by Molly Winans

enjoyed a quick dose of sunshine in early February at the U.S. Sailing Leadership Forum at St. Pete Beach, FL, with 532 sailors from around the country. Among my takeaways were these:

1

2

3

Warm weather’s effects are instant.

There comes a time right in the middle of a Chesapeake winter when time slows down and you fear it won’t end. You feel stuck in a Groundhog Day loop, stepping over the same slushy puddle every day, wearing the same stupid hat, praying that the roads won’t ice up. Then, you step off a plane somewhere in 75-degree weather. You look up to the sky and feel the warmth on your face.

A whisper of wind sways a nearby palm tree. Life feels right again.

You remember: spring will return. It always does.

Water heals.

One day at St. Pete Beach, there were lunchtime sailing demos off the beach. Although I didn’t pack dinghy sailing clothes, I was standing barefooted on a white sandy beach on a sunny workday (see #1), so I quite thoroughly enjoyed spectating and taking pictures of the few dozen sailors trying out RS Sailing’s and Zim Sailing’s dinghies, beach cats, and windsurfers. The wind freshened.

Foiling kitesurfing World Champion and Rolex Yachtswoman of the Year 2016, Daniela Moroz, zipped past making it look easy. Everyone there was grinning like kids.

Sailors always teach me something.

If you meet a slew of them from sailing towns, such as San Francisco, CA, Newport, RI, Portsmouth, UK, or Milwaukee, WI, sailors will all

teach you something without even knowing it. Over casual conversation at lunch or at the Tiki bar, you may learn about the prevailing winds in their home ports, their most exciting regattas, or how their local sailing scene differs from ours on the Chesapeake.

4

The Chesapeake is a breeding ground for talented sailors.

Five-hundred and thirty-two sailors came to the resort for the forum. For three days, there were keynote speakers and 50-plus hour-long breakout sessions. Chesapeake sailors were many among the experts speaking.

Annapolis pro Terry Hutchinson was a keynote panelist on the subject of Bella Mente Quantum Racing’s campaign for the next America’s Cup. Lynn Handy, the award-winning executive director of Baltimore’s Downtown Sailing Center (see page 16), spoke on a panel about women in

sailing leadership. Taran Teague of Annapolis Yacht Club discussed managing the start line on race committees.

Juliet Thompson and Carlos Linares of Severn Sailing Association and Tulinda Larsen explained various uses of drones for race committees. Bruce Bingman of AYC spoke alongside Dobbs Davis of Storm Trysail about alternative racing formats, and the list goes on. I knew it before my St. Pete Beach trip, but going there was a great reminder that you can’t swing a cat o’ ninetails in Chesapeake country without hitting a sailing expert.

5

There’s no place like home.

Florida’s fun to visit, but I’d rather be right here at home as the ospreys fly back up the Bay and sailors burn their socks. Turn to page 20 for more signs of spring. Bring it on!

The Trouble with Flares

hanks for tackling the issue of flares (“The Trouble with Flares” January SpinSheet, page 30). Having always assumed that keeping old flares as back-up is better than empty-handed, I have lots. Now I find that my boats are floating bombs. As you convey between the lines, disposal should not be a maze.

An even bigger flare problem is that 99 percent of us have never used a flare and probably not seen one close enough to observe. I’m now in my 60th year of operating vessels and would probably be afraid to use a flare. If we get such scary warnings about Fourth of July sparklers, potential burns to eyes, hands, and melting clothing material, the picture of the man holding the spewing flare seemed really scary.

I would love to and should try it at least once. However, this is a life and death preparation that is prohibited. Crazy!

I blame the Coast Guard. If they are the ones worried about false alarms, they should be the ones to sponsor learning times, better yet with the win-win of letting us use expiring ones so we get used to the skill and can perform well in an emergency. USCG would know it is not a false alarm because they’d be hosting it…

Because of my concern, I got one of the new electric lights (SOS Distress Light). It has the nice features you mentioned, but I hope I never need it in an emergency unless I am way out in the middle of a very big empty body of water with no shore lights…

Thank you for bringing up this problem. Please keep up the leadership.

Congrats from Down Under

ongratulations to Molly Winans on 10 great years!

Sitting here in my home office down under, I look forward to receiving SpinSheet every month. It keeps me in touch with the comings and goings of my many mates in the sailing industry in the USA, but more than anything it does more than any publication I know of worldwide to promote the concepts of participation for all in sailing and the simple joys of boating.

You, Molly, fit that role as editor like a hand in a sailing glove. You are clearly passionate about sailing, you write so well, and you connect so effectively with your readers. I can also attest to your professionalism having seen you in action as a keynote presenter at the International Sailing Summit in Amsterdam (in 2014).

I loved Dave Gendell’s tribute to you (January SpinSheet page 78), and it certainly resonated with me.

After 40 years at Ronstan I handed the helm of our Aussie company to Scot West, an American no less, who has thrilled me with his dedication, hard work, fresh ideas, and more than anything his commitment to the development of our culture. As Dave expressed about you, I feel Scot will take Ronstan to heights I couldn’t.

Keep it up, and enjoy the next 10 years!

Alistair Murray Chairman of Ronstan International Melbourne, Australia

aley Knudsen is the newest addition to the SpinSheet/ PropTalk/FishTalk advertising sales team. She hails from Leesburg, VA, and now calls Virginia Beach home. “I love it here,” says Knudsen. “My favorite thing to do on the weekend is brunch then beach. Virginia Beach locals take their brunching very seriously.”

Knudsen received a communications degree from Old Dominion University with a focus in media studies. During her senior year of college she got her first taste of the sales experience. “As a former D1 athlete I loved the competitive nature involved in sales,” she says.

“After growing up fishing on my uncle’s center console in the Chesapeake Bay, it feels right to continue my career by joining SpinSheet Publishing Company,” said Knudsen. “I’m excited to help expand our

coverage into the Virginia Beach/ Hampton Roads area. There are a lot of growth opportunities down here for the marine industry as a whole—and even more opportunities to go fishing and get out on the water! From Chic’s Beach to the Oceanfront, you can always find me by water with an ice-cold beverage in hand.”

We asked Haley if there was something cool about herself she would like to share, that most people might not know about, and she told us about a project she started with friends called SoupLife.

“We rotate different months in the winter making crazy amounts of soup and distributing it out to friends and family. It started out as a bunch of friends having fun, but now we’re realizing we could turn it into a local non-profit to warm up the less fortunate here in Virginia

Beach. Check in with me when you see me and ask about my soups!”

Welcome to the team, Haley!

U.S. Sailing Honors Two Chesapeake Community Sailing Programs

S

Congratulations to Sail Nauticus and Downtown Sailing Center!

ail Nauticus in Norfolk, VA, and the Downtown Sailing Center (DSC) in Baltimore were recently recognized for their excellence and hard work bringing sailing to their communities.

At the end of January U.S. Sailing awarded Sail Nauticus the Creative Innovations of Programming Award for its Academy’s outstanding work partnering with Norfolk schools to teach students beyond the basics of sailing, including math, science, and leadership skills that will help them throughout their lives. An afterschool program, the Academy recruits soon-to-be-sailors from select Title-I middle schools. The program provides sixth- through eighth-grade students a unique opportunity to make new friends and learn new skills as they navigate their way to becoming exceptional young adults. They are also a Mid-Atlantic STEM center through US Sailing’s Reach Initiative.

Sail Nauticus has a mission to inspire, instruct, and impact kids in the Hampton Roads community using sailing and maritime sciences. This organization provides a variety of youth and adult programs, racing, clinics, social sailing, women’s sailing, and community gatherings.

At the U.S. Sailing Leadership Forum in early February, Lynn Handy, the executive director of DSC, received the Virginia Long Sail Training Service and Support Award. This award honors individuals who, through their efforts, unselfishly assist and enable a ##The DSC’s Stuart Proctor and executive director Lynn Handy sailing program or at the U.S. Sailing Leadership Forum at St. Pete’s Beach, FL. sailing instruction in a supportive As a member of U.S. Sailing’s National role.

Lorie Stout, 103 Days on the Water

or the fourth year in a row I made the SpinSheet Century Club with 103 days on the water in 2017. It was a fun year with many trips on our Whaler, but also some renewed experiences sailing.

In order to make the Century Club I need to plan ahead, because getting on the water is strictly recreation to me, and I need to work. The first obstacle that I encountered was a very wet spring. One of our main boats in the fleet needs bright

##Four-time SpinSheet Centurion Lorie Stout on one of NSHOF’s Sandbaggers.

work each season. Bright work and rain do not go hand in hand, so the launch of the Mimi J (aka Putt Putt) was postponed until July. An engine issue on our Tartan 27 Sugar caused many missed opportunities to take her sailing. The third obstacle was no access to paddleboats. Annapolis Community Boating got rid of its fleet, so the Friday morning paddles halted. Needless to say, in June I needed to regroup and figure out what other boats I could use, because I had not been on the water very much, and the year was ticking by.

It turns out the fleet at my disposal was our Whaler, the Putt Putt, and a row boat. From there I needed to use OPB (other peoples’ boats). A great friend and sailing partner asked if I would like to sail in the Thursday night J/World series on his J/70. “Of course, I would!” I also crewed for him in the J/70 North Americans and realized how much I missed competitive sailing.

One set of boats that are a thrill to sail on are the Sandbaggers at the National Sailing Hall of Fame. On Wednesday nights the

Win a VIP Trip to Newport with Interlux and Team AkzoNobel

NSHOF offers rides to organizations to go watch Annapolis Yacht Club’s racing. In August my networking group had a great night of sailing around the race course. I also taught a friend about her new powerboat and participated in a wonderful full moon paddle.

Becoming a member of the Century Club does become a family affair. My husband was most supportive and loved to go putter on the Whaler in our creek and surrounding rivers. We explored many areas and watched many wonderful sunsets.

Now that we are into 2018, I have started my log. My first day on the water was racing an InterClub dinghy in January.

I have committed to sailing in the Snipe Women’s Worlds in August, so I will be commissioning the Snipe this year and spending many days practicing and racing.

Sugar is fixed, and we have a tent under which to do the brightwork for the Mimi J. Hopefully, I will have many more days than 103 this year, and I have my sights set on becoming a member of the SpinSheet Racing Team also. Bring on the spring season!

Today, the company offers over 400 products, including a new line dedicated to boating safety.

Over the course of its 90th anniversary year, Weems & Plath will sponsor a trivia contest online at weems-plath. com, with fascinating questions about

the rich history of the company and its founder. For example, did you know that Captain Weems is the center of a Time & Navigation display at the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum in Washington, DC? In the spring, Weems & Plath will also launch a photo contest which asks customers to submit photos of any past or present Weems & Plath products they own to be shared on social media for the public to vote on. To find out more about the particulars of their anniversary activities, follow Weems & Plath’s Facebook page at: facebook.com/WeemsAndPlath.

Weems & Plath’s president, Peter Trogdon said, “We are very grateful to our customers who have remained loyal and have helped us reach this milestone.

I believe that our longevity is due to the fact that our customers know that we love boating and want to create products that will make boating more enjoyable and safe.”

Dinosaur Footprints Discovered at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center

inosaur tracks from more than 100 million years ago were discovered at NASA’S Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, MD. Ray Stanford, a local dinosaur track expert, spotted this intriguing find while dropping his wife, Sheila, a Goddard employee, off at work in 2012. The slab of sandstone, the size of a dining room table, contains 70 mammal and dinosaur tracks from eight species, including squirrel-sized mammals and tank-sized dinosaurs.

The fossil footprints, likely made within days of each other, provide a rare glimpse of the mammals and dinosaurs interacting, which make this find extraordinary. Dr. Stephen Godfrey, Calvert Marine Museum’s curator of paleontology, coordinated the excavation of the slab and produced the mold and cast that formed the basis of the scientific work.

Dr. Godfrey authored a paper with Ray and Sheila Stanford; Martin Lockley, paleontologist at the University of Colorado; and Compton Tucker, Earth Scientist at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center.

“The concentration of mammal tracks on this site is orders of magnitude higher than any other site in the world,” said Martin Lockley. “I don’t think I’ve ever seen a slab this size, which is a couple of square meters, where you have over 70 footprints of so many different types. This is the mother lode of Cretaceous mammal tracks.”

The first track Stanford found was of a nodosaur. Subsequent examination revealed prints of a baby nodosaur beside and within the track of the adult nodosaur, likely indicating that they were traveling together. The other dinosaur tracks include: a sauropod, or long-necked plant-eater; small theropods, crow-sized carnivorous dinosaurs closely related to Velociraptor and Tyrannosaurus rex; and pterosaurs, a group of flying reptiles that included pterodactyls.

At least 26 mammal tracks have been identified on the slab since the 2012 discovery – significantly more than have been discovered anywhere else in the world. Furthermore, the slab also contains the largest

mammal track ever discovered from the Cretaceous. It is about the size of modern raccoon’s prints.

As the scientists continue to study the tracks and compare them to others found in the area and around the world, they will continue to discover more about prehistoric life that existed here.

Five Signs Spring Is Returning

T

his year, the spring equinox falls on Tuesday, March 20. We will have already ‘sprung forward’ on March 11, increasing sunlight hours, and the first day of spring will see a nearly equal day and night. Equinox comes from the latin words aequus and nox which means “equal night.”

As sailors, we are already counting down the days until spring, and we have a special way of ringing in the season: sock burnings. Weird as it may sound to non-sailors, the burning of socks heralds the coming boating season when bare feet in boat shoes are the norm.

Here are some upcoming sock burning events: March 3 at the Reedville Fishermen’s Museum, March 18 at Ullman Sails Virginia, March 24 at the Annapolis Maritime Museum, and also March 24 at the Tidewater Marina for Havre de Grace Yacht Club.

Find more details in our calendar (page 21).

Several migratory species filter in and out of the Chesapeake Bay during the year.

for life and return each year to nest in the same area in which they were born. Adult male ospreys begin arriving at old nest sites toward early March, while less experienced breeders arrive later in the season. You can watch a live feed of an osprey family at chesapeakeconservancy.org.

Get ready to break out the Old Bay because recreational crabbing season officially opens on April 1. From opening day to July 14, minimum size limits are five inches for male hard crabs, three and a quarter inches for male peeler crabs, and three and a half ##Photo by Ken Tom/Annapolis Maritime Museum inches for soft crabs for the duration of the season.

If all that wasn’t enough, frostbiting is generally finishing up by late March which means (hopefully) winter is finally behind us. Water temperatures will still be rather cold, so be prepared and stay safe if going out on the water.

If you snap a nice photo of a sock burning festival or ospreys returning, email to editor@spinsheet.com.

The tundra swan, not to be confused with the invasive mute swan, migrates to the Bay during the autumn and winter months before returning to the arctic tundra of Canada and Alaska to breed. Tundra swans have long, slender necks and a black bill, while mute swans are easily distinguishable by their bright orange bill with a black knob at the base.

While the tundra swans are leaving for their breeding grounds, ospreys are returning. Ospreys mate with the same partner

Pride of Baltimore II Battling Financial Headwinds

ailors who love schooners will be disappointed and concerned to learn that without significant new funding the Pride of Baltimore II may not be able to maintain an active sailing schedule in 2018.

“The Pride organization has successfully stewarded the city’s tall ship for decades, but we need to hit pause and look carefully at how we move forward,” says Rick Scott, Pride of Baltimore’s executive director. “We will examine the organization’s structure, operations, and financing. It’s

20 March 2018 SpinSheet.com

important to identify a sustainable strategy for operating Pride.”

The Pride of Baltimore organization is urging the public and the local business community to express support for the ship and make financial contributions to fund her future operations. The organization is also advocating for renewed state and local funding to allow Pride of Baltimore II to continue to fulfill her mission.

“We will use 2018 to reassess the ship’s future, working closely with our partners in the public and private sectors to make sure we ##Photo by Jeffrey G. Katz don’t witness the end to Pride’s wonderful history,” says board chair captain Eric Nielsen.

Although Pride of Baltimore has no outstanding debt, traditionally less than half its budget has come from operating revenue generated by

appearance fees, souvenir sales, and day sails. This has required the organization to raise significant amounts of money each year through grants, individual gifts, and corporate support.

In addition to operating revenue and philanthropic support, the state of Maryland has provided significant funding, most recently through a three-year commitment through early 2018, and the Pride organization is exploring legislation to allocate state funding.

“We are grateful for the generous financial support we have received from the state of Maryland, the city of Baltimore, and thousands of people and organizations over many years,” says Scott. “As we plan for our future and do maintenance on Pride this year, we urge all those who care about her to continue to support our work.”

To contribute to the cause through a one-time donation or a monthly contribution, and for more information, visit pride2.org.

The Sailors We’ve Met

B

ack in 2008 Team SpinSheet published the first edition of Start Sailing Now, a sleek booklet, which we update annually, that lays out everything a would-be sailor needs to know to start sailing now. Not long after, editor Molly Winans took the show on the road, moderating Start Sailing Now panels at the Annapolis Boat Show, our Crew Parties, and at clubs around the Bay. In 2014 we brought a variation on the theme to these pages and began devoting regular space here for profiles of individuals who took up the sport of sailing as adults. Each month they awe and inspire us with their enthusiasm and tenacity.

Looking back over the past few years and the dozens of interviews with new adult sailors, we see a few common threads that run through the group. They are adventurous, outgoing, and friendly.

Many are athletic, and most have enjoyed other outdoor sports before coming to sailing. We haven’t made an official tally, but the group seems to break down

about evenly between racers and cruisers, men and women. All were inspired by sailing’s unending opportunities for learning and a sense of joy and freedom that keeps bringing them back to the docks.

While some of our profiled sailors were introduced to sailing by friends or family, most were not. We’ve heard stories of sailors who got their start sailing with an unlikely acquaintance, spending an afternoon aboard a charter, or attending a SpinSheet crew party.

Another common link: they all came off the boat thinking, “Hey, I’d like to do more of that.”

Most often our Start Sailing Now sailors decided to enroll in a course (or several courses) at a sailing school or community sailing program. And those that did report having had an excellent experience. So a big shout-out to all the adult sailing programs around the Bay and their instructors who provide on-the-water training and inspiration.

Thank you for bringing more adults into sailing!

If you know a sailor(s) who might be a good candidate to be profiled here, send an email to beth@spinsheet.com.

We’ll be happy to reach out to them.

Our Start Sailing Now page profiles sailors like these: • Started sailing as an adult (may have had exposure during childhood) • Racer or cruiser

• Single, couple, or whole family • Dinghy or big boat sailor

• Self-taught, learned from a friend, or enrolled in a sailing school or community sailing program • Liveaboards, day sailors, and passagemakers

Where We Sail

No Need To Go to the Galapagos!

Boobies, Harbor Seals, and Other Chesapeake Relatives

W

By Pamela Tenner Kellett

hile the Galapagos Islands are undoubtedly a dream destination for Chesapeake sailors, it is a long journey through the Panama Canal to these islands located 600 miles off the coast of Ecuador. I spent a semester in Ecuador my senior year in college, and a trip to the Galapagos, teeming with incredible marine and terrestrial biodiversity, was the highlight of my time abroad. After a week spent swimming with the Galapagos penguins and fur seals, and admiring nesting blue footed boobies, saltspitting marine iguanas, and massive tortoises, I vowed to return and become a guide. Alas my sailing career took ##Northen gannett selecting a dive target. Photo by Alan D. Wilson

over as a focus, and that never happened. Lucky for me, early spring in the Chesapeake offers some opportunities for remarkably similar wildlife sightings.

The northern gannet (Morus bassanus) is the largest member of the booby family and can be found in large flocks in the Southern Bay from October to April.

While lacking the flashy blue or red feet of its southern dwelling family members, the northern gannet is the largest breeding seabird in the North Atlantic, with a wingspan of five feet. Gannets are monomorphic, which means the males and females are similar in size and appearance. Adults have long narrow wings and are pure white with pale yellow on their heads. They have Follow us!

a striking light blue eye surrounded by bare or black skin.

These birds are a true ocean (pelagic) species that we are lucky enough to have visit the Bay in the winter months. There are only six nesting colonies in North America, all on offshore islands and cliffs in the Canadian Maritimes. Gannets mate for life and begin breeding at age five or six.

They build nests of mud, seaweed, grass, and guano that are used by the same pair year after year. The female lays a single greenish blue egg per season, and both partners ##Eastern box incubate the egg turtle. Photo by using their large, Matt Reinbold highly vascularized feet to keep the egg warm. After hatching, the parents feed the chick for three months until it is ready to fledge.

While the current population is considered stable, birds with long lives and low reproductive rates can be vulnerable to threats from climate change to collisions with wind turbines. Migratory routes are currently being studied via satellite tagged birds in order to better understand distribution and behavior. Research results will be used to inform placement of offshore turbines.

Northern gannets are remarkable not just for their size, but for their feeding behaviors. Many plunge divers (think pelicans) are relatively shallow divers, but gannets plunge from heights of 140 feet to depths of 72 feet using their powerful wings and feet to swim deeper in search of fish and squid. They can reach speeds of 62 miles per hour when they dive, and their bodies are specially adapted to withstand impact and pressure. Fish are consumed underwater before surfacing. They will also forage on the surface with their heads submerged to find prey and then dive below the surface to capture fish in their sharp beaks.

Harbor seals (Phoca vitulina) are now a common sight near the Bay BridgeTunnel, arriving in December and staying at the mouth of the Bay until the end of March. Whale-watching tours out of Virginia Beach have added to their winter tours a stop to see the seals. These sleek brown or grey marine mammals have large eyes to help them capture fish on their dives, which can last up to 30 minutes and extend to depths of 600 feet. Their whiskers help them hunt and navigate by sensing pressure from fish and underwater objects.

Unlike humans, harbor seals breathe out before diving, using oxygen already in their bodies to breathe. Harbor seals like to haul out and bask to rest, digest, give birth, and

nurse their young. They quickly slip back into the water when approached by boats.

Females give birth to a single pup which can swim and dive within hours of birth.

They nurse for three to six weeks. The Harbor Seals that reside in the Chesapeake over the winter return to New England and Canadian waters in the spring.

While the confines of this article limit me from fully expanding on the life histories of all the Chesapeake creatures that have a Galapagos companion, I would put the broad headed skink up against the marine iguana. The adults have ruby-orange red jowls and the juveniles a shocking bright blue tail. Or consider the lovely eastern box turtle. While it is only six inches long and weighs less than a pound, it lives up to 100 years just like Lonesome George, the mighty Galapagos tortoise that recently died after reaching a century of age! As we anxiously await the return of better sailing weather, March is a wonderful month to seek out some visitors that stack up pretty well against their Galapagos cousins.

Washington, DC

n July 16,1790, the Residence Act approved the creation of a capital district along the Potomac River, a district which would be under the exclusive jurisdiction of Congress, and thus not a part of any state. Both Maryland and Virginia donated land to form this federal district, and the city of Washington, named in

honor of President George Washington, was founded in 1791.

Today Washington, DC, is known for many things, including its monuments, eclectic neighborhoods, museums, and of course the cherry blossoms.

The next time you’re in the nation’s capital, keep these points of interest in mind. Trust us, they’re worth exploring.

with this year’s festival taking place March 20-April 15. Each year the National Park Service monitors bloom development, but it is very difficult to give an accurate forecast more than 10 days before peak bloom, so stay tuned at nationalcherryblossomfestival.org for updates. The highlight of the festival is the annual Parade, one of DC’s largest spectator events. On April 14 from 10 a.m. to noon, the parade will run for 10 blocks along iconic Constitution Avenue between 9th and 15th streets with giant helium balloons, elaborate floats, marching bands, and even celebrity entertainers. Arrive early to snag the best views.

2. Yards Park

Yards Park, nestled along the Anacostia River, is part of the revitalized Capitol Riverfront Neighborhood.

Walk across the sculptural bridge for a bird’s eye view of the canal basin, and then stroll along the park’s quarter mile boardwalk that runs along the Anacostia. There is plenty of green space, perfect for a picnic or Frisbee fun, but the big highlight of the park is the canal basin. There are dancing fountains to run through, a waterfall, and the basin is less than a foot deep, making it great for small children to splash around in.

Calling the Coast Guard: a Primer

By Captain Art Pine

If you get into trouble when you’re out on the water and you need help fast, what’s the quickest way to reach a first-responder?

Calling the U. S. Coast Guard, of course.

B

ut there are some things you may want to know before you reach for your radio: how to contact the Coast Guard’s emergency watchstanders, what to tell them when they answer, and what’s likely to happen after that. Here’s a primer on what to do—and what not to do—in seeking help.

Call as soon as you realize that you’re in trouble—before you get into an even more serious emergency situation. If the problem worsens enough to threaten the stability of the vessel or the life or health of anyone onboard, the watchstanders will already know what it’s about and can respond more rapidly.

Use a VHF-FM marine radio—not a cellphone—to contact the Coast Guard. Coast Guard regulations require that all vessels equipped with a VHFFM marine radio monitor channel 16 when underway. By calling on your marine radio, you’ll reach a wider swath of potential rescuers, even nearby boat34 March 2018 SpinSheet.com

ers who may be able to reach you more quickly.

Make sure you call on channel 16, not on channel 22, 68, or any other channel on which you happen to have landed. The Coast Guard monitors channel 16 around the clock. Don’t use a CB (citizens’ band) radio. The Coast Guard doesn’t monitor CBs, and these days only truckers use them; call on a CB radio, and you’ll get an 18-wheeler.

Decide what kind of call you need to make. A “general request for help” can cover a wide variety of boating dilemmas, from running aground or having an accident to becoming lost, stranded, or disoriented. A “genuine distress call” involves possible loss of life: fire, man overboard, taking on water, capsizing, sinking, or experiencing a serious medical emergency.

If you have a DSC-equipped radio, push the emergency button. Digital Selective Calling (DSC) is an automatic

alarm system that sends the Coast Guard a distress signal message containing your position and basic information about your boat. If you do have a DSC radio, be sure to read the user manual right now so that you understand how your model works.

Important: The DSC transmission won’t include your current position unless your radio has an integral GPS receiver or is connected to a working GPS receiver.

And for your DSC gear to work properly, you’ll need to have obtained a Maritime Mobile Service Identity (MMSI) number from BoatU.S., SeaTow, or the U.S. Power Squadrons.

If you don’t have DSC, call the Coast Guard on your radio using channel 16. Be sure channel 16 is clear, with no one else talking on it, before you press the “transmit” key on your microphone. If you try to talk when someone else is transmitting, you very likely will prevent both yourself and the party already using the radio from getting through.

Boating Safety For a truly serious emergency, such as sinking, begin with “Mayday, Mayday, Mayday, this is [say the name of your vessel three times] on channel 16. We’re in

distress [give your location and briefly give the nature of your distress: sinking, medical emergency, fire, or the like], and I need assistance. Over.”

Three Categories of Emergency Signals There are three categories of radio calls to use for broadcasting boating emergencies, based on the severity of your problem. In each case, the initial call is broadcast on channel 16.

MAYDAY. A Mayday call is used when you’re facing a grave and imminent danger and you need help immediately. It has priority over all other calls on VHF. (The word Mayday derives from the French expression, m’aidez, which means “help me.” When you hear a Mayday call from another boat, you must avoid transmitting on channel 16 until the communications involving the distress call have ended. The Coast Guard or the vessel in distress may impose silence by transmitting the expression “see-LONCE Mayday”—the French word for “silence.”

PAN-PAN. This is an “urgency” signal, the next priority down from a Mayday call. In this case it means you’ve encountered an urgent situation in which the safety of a vessel or person is in jeopardy. Pan-pan is pronounced “PAHN-PAHN”—after the French expression panne, which means urgency. Examples of a Pan-Pan signal include the loss of a person overboard (but only when help is needed), loss of steering or power in a shipping lane, or repeating an urgent storm warning from an authorized shore station.

SÉCURITÉ. This is a “safety signal,” the lowest priority of emergency call. This one has a lower priority than Mayday or Pan-Pan messages, but it has higher priority than other radio traffic. It’s used to transmit safety-related messages, such as notice of heavy debris in a waterway or a boat that has lost power in a shipping channel. Sécurité is pronounced “saycure-ee-TAY”—after the French word sécurité, which means “safety.” Make the initial call on channel 16 and then shift to a working channel.

The decision on which type of call to make is in the hands of the boat’s skipper. Do not Mayday unless your boat is in serious distress.

B LUE W ATER SAILING SCHOOL

V

When the Coast Guard responds, be prepared to provide them the following information immediately so that if you lose radio communication later, they’ll already have what they need to act (we’ve attached a form at the end of this article that you can fill in and post in your boat so you have it ready when you need it): • The name of your boat (for example, “sailing vessel Mary Lou”).

• Your location. Be sure to provide both a geographic description, such as “half a mile east of Greenbury Point,” and a GPS-generated latitude and longitude.

The geographic description isn’t as precise a GPS position, but watchstanders say it helps them find you more rapidly and guards against possible mistakes in reading your latitude and longitude.

• A description of your boat. What kind of boat is it? How long? What color(s)?

Distinguishing features (such as a forward-positioned wheelhouse)?

• How many persons you have onboard.

Specify the number of adults and children. Include yourself in the total.

• The nature of your problem. Fire? Taking on water? Medical emergency? Me-

chanical problems? Lost or disoriented?

Out of fuel? Be sure you tell the Coast Guard everything.

If you really have a Mayday situation, stay tuned to channel 16. The Coast Guard will handle everything on that single channel. For non-emergency help, the watchstander may ask you to switch to channel 22, the Coast Guard’s working channel for carrying on informal conversations that aren’t about life-threatening problems.

Important: if you hear a Mayday call on channel 16 and you are not in danger, do not transmit on 16 while the Coast Guard and the boat-in-distress are communicating or you may interfere with the emergency communications. When one party talks on a channel, it blocks out all other conversation on that channel.

The Coast Guard may ask you to provide other information about your boat or your crewmembers and guests: Are there any children onboard? Does anyone need

medical attention? Where is your boat registered? What is its registration (or Coast Guard documentation) number?

Do you have towing-assistance insurance?

The Coast Guard will send out a rescue boat (or, sometimes, a helicopter) in response to any Mayday call, or in special cases where your boat has a dangerous mechanical problem, where someone onboard has a serious medical problem, where the weather is worsening rapidly, or when it’s getting dark.

For non-emergency help, pick up your radio microphone, make sure your transceiver is on and tuned to channel 16, and say: “Coast Guard, Coast Guard, Coast Guard, this is [repeat name of your vessel three times], on channel 16. Over.” The watchstander will answer and ask you what the problem is.

In such cases, Coast Guard watchstanders will offer to assist you in getting help by calling a friend or relative or a

towing-assistance company or by putting out a Marine Assistance Request Broadcast (MARB) to all boaters in the area asking them to be on the lookout for your vessel and volunteer to help you out.

If you’re not wearing a lifejacket, put one on immediately and have everyone else on your boat don one, too. Firstresponder crews will insist on that and will expect you to be wearing lifejackets when they arrive. No exceptions.

When a rescue vessel arrives, follow the orders given by Coast Guard crews.

USCG personnel are law-enforcement officers as well as first-responders.

Remember, depending on where you are and what the seas are like, it can take quite some time for a Coast Guard response boat to get to where you are.

What’s New Down by the Water?

W

By Captain Art Pine

hat’s new at the Bay’s marinas these days? We talked to several marina managers and came up with some common threads. Many are upgrading, such as replacing old slips and facilities, expanding capacity, or adding amenities in hopes of turning their properties into “destination” marinas that attract boaters who want a place to have fun ashore rather than just renting slip space. Marina managers put in long and varied workdays, and sometimes they run into the darnedest situations.

Mark Andrews General Manager Bay Bridge Marina Stevensville, MD What’s new at your marina this year?

We’re realizing that we’re more than just a marina; we’re really a resort facility. So we’ve been expanding, and we’ve been expanding the kinds of services we offer and raising the quality level. We improved Hemingway’s, our on-site restaurant. We built a big fire pit outside, and we’re expanding our meeting facilities for business meetings, wedding-related events, and boat shows. We also started discount programs and special events for slipholders, such as wine-pairing events and other special occasions. We’re now home to six boat brokerage operations, and we’ve enabled them to display their boats around the property; we have hundreds of boats on display. And we’re planning to include more shopping facilities and peripheral businesses that provide services such as boat loans electronics. We want to become a one-stop-shopping place for boaters.

What would surprise people about your job?

The fact that it’s so much more than just managing a marina. We’re a bigger property, so it has far more to do with guest experience than just how many slips are occupied. We’re offering experiences, not just a product. We want to provide a lot of options for slipholders.

##Mark Andrews at Bay Bridge Marina

Give us an idea of a typical day at the marina.

If you could create the perfect slipholder, what would this person be like?

What have you learned on the job that you could only have learned on the job?

Did you encounter any surprises this past year?

There is no typical day. Every day is different. One minute I’m working with our managers on how to enhance their departments; another I’m busy helping to stop a boat from sinking. It’s all part of the job.

That the Chesapeake Bay is a unique environment with many different levels of boater interest, and in order for us to succeed, we have to be listening to the boaters and the community. It’s important to take that seriously.

To me, the ideal slipholder would be somebody who has a real love not only for boating but for a boating lifestyle, someone who appreciates their time with their loved ones and families and has come here to relax.

Probably the most unusual and exciting challenges that we’ve had has been the weather. The tornado missed our property by less than a quarter of a mile. Just being responsive to the various weather experiences provides a different challenge every day.

James B. Wagner General Manager Regent Point Marina Topping, VA

What’s new at your marina this year?

We’ve had a very big year for investment and capital improvements. We bought a 35-ton Travelift so we can haul larger boats, and that required a lot of other changes. We had to do some dredging, and we had to buy a six-acre property next to the marina where we could deposit the spoil. We built a seven-foot berm around that and filled in the land, and we added a new driveway for the Travelift. We’ve restructured the electrical service to F dock. There are a lot of pieces in this puzzle, but it looks great and enables us to improve our service.

What would surprise people about your job?

How much more intricate it is than people realize. The Travelift project is a good example. It involved state agencies, county regulators, and engineers. It took us almost a year to acquire the Travelift. It sounds pretty simple, but there’s a lot of stuff involved.

Give us an idea of a typical day at the marina.

That depends on what season it is.

From the fall through early spring, it’s boatyard time. In the summer, you have a lot more interaction with slipholders. I like to share as much knowledge as I can about places to go cruising. If a slipholder asks, “I’m thinking about going out to suchand-so this weekend, what would I see?” I want to be able to provide a good answer.

What have you learned on the job that you could only have learned on the job?

A lot of that is technical stuff. I’d been a boater and a sailor for most of my life, but that didn’t necessarily mean that I knew very much about boating when I started in this business. My knowledge of boating is a lot deeper now. As a boater, you take your boat, you tie up your boat, and you go home. As a marina owner, you’re involved in a great deal more, such as storm preparation, and the like.

##James Wagner

If you could create the perfect slipholder, what would this person be like?

Somebody who uses his or her boat frequently, who has reasonable expectations, who appreciates the facilities for what they are, and who is not a pennypincher. Someone who understands the value of services and is willing to pay a fair price. For example, if you have to change a water pump, that involves removing five bolts or so, and it takes about an hour. But if you come across one bolt that proves hard to get off, it could take a lot more time. You never know until you get into a marine repair job what it will be.

Did you encounter any surprises this past year?

We always have a lot of cruisers who are heading south, but this year we had a good percentage who were going north. It was nice to have them come back and share their experiences.

Anything else you’d like to share with our readers?

We’re seeing a lot more people from the northern part of the Bay around Annapolis, coming our way. The slips and prices are way cheaper down here, and you get a more relaxed sailing experience. We’d love to have them. ##Photo courtesy of Regent Point Marina

Betsy Neitzey Manager Castle Marina Chester, MD What’s new at your marina this year?

We’ve been doing a lot of things to improve our facilities. We got a new spa with a freestanding hot tub. We have a large pool and a wading pool as well. We put in a couple of bulkheads along A and B dock.

And we re-did the bathhouse recently.

We’ve always been a family-oriented marina.

What would surprise people about your job?

I don’t think they’re aware of how many balls you have to keep in the air when you manage a marina. You have to keep everyone happy and keep everything going forward at the same time. It keeps you very busy.

Give us an idea of a typical day at the marina.

That assumes that there is such a thing. The first thing I do is open the fuel dock and get the pool ready. Then, I go down to the office. After that, I spend much of the day

answering people’s questions and showing them our slips and facilities. I’m involved in every bit of it, because I know what’s going on.

What have you learned on the job that you could only have learned on the job?

Because everything that happens here is individual, nothing is normal. You never know what’s going to happen on a particular day. I just deal with it as it comes. But I had to learn everything on the job. You can’t master it any other way.

If you could create the perfect slipholder, what would this person be like?

Better communication. I think the perfect slipholder would be someone who communicated with us when there’s a specific problem or if they think something could be better. If we know that something needs to be done, we address it. In my conversations with people, they usually will tell me. As soon as we know of a problem, I’ll be there to fix it.

It was large when it came in, but all it did was rip up a sign at the entrance to the channel and then it dissipated in the grocery store parking lot. The tornado came on a different day. It took a hard-bottom dinghy off its rack and carried it into the pool. Luckily, no one was hurt.

If you could create the perfect slipholder, what would this person be like?

##Docking contest at Nick’s Fish House, Baltimore

Passionate, friendly. It would be easy to say that I like a boater to pay me and not do anything, but it breaks your heart to see a boat just sit there all summer. Also, you’d be surprised at how many people come into a marina and don’t have their lines ready.

Did you encounter any surprises this past year?

There’s always weird stuff. This past year, a raccoon built a nest in the cockpit of a sailboat, down in the well, where you couldn’t see it when you walked by. Getting that raccoon off that boat proved to be a bit of a chase.

A marina is a great place to work.

Up the Creek in Annapolis

W

e reached out to Joanna Haaland, senior coordinator at Bert Jabin Yacht Yard (BJYY), to learn a bit about its Clean Marina Initiative and what was new at the marina, boatel, and full-service boatyard nestled up Back Creek in the “maritime hub” of Annapolis.

Can you describe a few of the things that BJYY has done for its Clean Marina status?

We’ve been working diligently to promote clean boating and best management practices among our clients and contractors, some of which include the use of oil absorbed in bilges, recycling of used oil/filters and antifreeze, shrink wrap recycling, utilizing pump-outs when needed, and the use of green products on and off the water. We also work hard to maintain a clean and orderly facility in an effort to mitigate any potential sources of pollutants in storm water runoff. Being a Clean Marina, to us, is more than just a certification or an advertising perk; it’s a standard of awareness and action to both protect and improve water quality and marine habitat at the source of our business, and our recreational enjoyment, the Chesapeake Bay.

What do you wish more people knew about the Clean Marina Initiative?

The steps involved in becoming a Clean Marina are many, but the willingness to complete them, to me, is commendable. As a boater, I appreciate the effort that other Clean Marinas put into completing the process, because it is a lot of work. It takes initiative, drive, determination, and motivation, and from there, a continued commitment moving forward in order to make a difference. Achieving certification is just the beginning!

I can only hope that other boaters recognize when efforts are being made in that regard, and applaud facilities that are going through or have already completed the Clean Marina certification process.

When it comes to clean boating best practices, what should an ideal slipholder do?

Boaters and slip holders should try to do their best to contain trash, recycle, control onboard oil/fuel, pump out and rinse holding tanks regularly, and be responsible and courteous both on and off the water. Most do go above and beyond in their efforts, which is fantastic!

On the contrary, though, nothing can ruin your day on the water faster than coming across someone who doesn’t.

What’s new at Jabin’s?

The newest news at BJYY is the remodel/rebuild of our mechanic’s shop.

We now have the capability of servicing and maintaining our 75-ton Travelift indoors, which for us is huge. bjyy.com.

What’s Happening on Herring Bay?

L

ess than an hour’s drive from Annapolis, you’ll find Herrington Harbour North and South, two marinas on Herring Bay offering a combined 1200 slips, a full-service boatyard, and resort-style amenities from swimming pools, tennis, private beaches, and beachfront lodging to the little things we transient boaters love, such as free dockside pump-outs and 24-hour ice.

A few PropTalk staffers visited Herrington Harbour South recently and came back excited for all that was new, including the rebuilt F Dock and the upcoming restaurant opening. We called Melissa Kapper at the South office to hear more. Here’s what to look for on Herring Bay soon:

• The new restaurant, Ketch 22, is on track to open to the public in midMarch by the pool (where Mangoes was). Run by the same owners of the popular, award-winning Point Crab House and Grill on Mill Creek in Arnold, MD, it will offer fresh food at reasonable prices, great happy hours, and capacity for 200 customers.

• Slipholders and regular customers may attend a winter seminar series February 24 and March 3.

Bowleys Marina is an affordable, upscale resort-style, family friendly marina located just minutes from the Chesapeake Bay.

• Also in March for customers, the marina will host a sock-burning to celebrate the spring equinox. Click to the website for this and other events: herringtonharbour.com.

• To welcome boating season, Herrington Harbour will host a customer get-together in April on the beach (date to be announced).

• The big celebration for Herrington Harbour’s 40th anniversary will unfold June 24 from noon to four.

Changes in Attitudes T

he new senior vice president of Trident Marine Group, Tim Dowling, since the age of 16 has spent his career in recreational and commercial boating operations, asset management, and training, most recently as the vice president of operations for Coastal Properties Management. For Trident Marine Group’s properties (Chesapeake Harbour Marina, Nabbs Creek Marina, Annapolis Capital Yacht Club, and Orchard Beach Marina), Dowling will focus on a high level of customer service and investing in the best personnel, as well as expanding the business.

What are the top challenges of marina management?

Keeping up with the changes in the expectations of the industry. In the past eight to 10 years, there’s been a change in what customers expect and how marinas operate. Before marinas were a place to park your boat; now they’ve come to be more of a lifestyle. The expectations

for amenities and customer service have changed. You used to jump on your boat and go boating; now you may just hang out on your boat at the marina with neighboring boaters. That sense of community is an important part of the lifestyle.

What do you love about your work?

I’m outside a lot. The wonderful thing about our business is that when people are on their boats, they’re relaxed; they’re in good moods; their workday stresses melt away. As a community, boaters are a fun and energetic group of people to be around.

What might surprise your customers about what you do?

The complexity of compliance and paperwork that is required to keep a boat in the marina. I think that is a real change from 10 to 20 years ago, and while they’re good changes (from protecting the water of the Bay to increased security and insurance), staying on top of that is a fulltime job in itself.

NERYC Membership and Slips are Available

##Tim Dowling of Trident Marine Group

What are your goals for Trident Marine Group?

Our goals are to grow and expand, and more specifically we plan to maintain the core values of a well-run marina and marry it with today’s higher expectations for customer service: a good blend of the old and the new. #

What Do You Need?

M

arinas are not just pilings to tie your boat off to. They can be a summer get away, a liveaboard community, a place for childhood memories, or a weekend home. Finding the right marina means figuring out what your needs and tastes are, and doing a little dock to dock shopping around to ensure a good fit.

By Cindy Wallach

Back to basics

There are some very basic things every standard marina should do and do well.

Docks need to be in good shape. There is nothing worse than a rusty nail in a favorite flip flop or tripping on buckling or uneven dock boards. Finger piers need to be stable and easy to step on to from your boat. I’ve been on some finger piers that

were like pirate sobriety tests, walking a wobbling plank.

A marina should have ample parking and easy access between your car and the dock. There should be clean bathrooms and ideally showers and laundry, too. The water coming from the faucets should be clear, the toilets should flush, and toilet paper should always be available.

Marinas Finding your style

Once you find a handful of clean, maintained marinas in your area, the fun can begin. Some marinas are like resorts, complete with nice restaurants, club rooms, and a happening bar scene. They have manicured lawns and work hard to keep the place on the up and up. The upsides to a place like this are obvious: amazing amenities and service. The downsides can be a high price tag and a low tolerance for stepping outside the lines. It’s a good idea to walk the docks, talk to current slip holders, and get a good idea of the day to day scene.

Some marinas are more of a working yacht yard. These are places with dry storage, Travelifts, and often a wellstocked chandlery with all of the spare parts you might need. There are often marina trade businesses of every kind right there on site, which means you can get things fixed a lot faster. The downside is that working yards are often not terribly pretty or good places for pets or kids to run around.

Around the Chesapeake there are many mom-and-pop style marinas.

They are small, well run, simple, and

family oriented. They may not have a Tiki bar or swimming pool or a rigger on site, but they keep things affordable, running well, and friendly.

Some folks are looking for a place where they can let their dogs run around.

Others need a playground and plenty of green space for their kids. Most people are hoping for marina WiFi or dockside cable TV. Many boaters summering on the Bay want a swimming pool. Cruisers usually want a dinghy dock to launch a kayak, paddleboard, or inflatable.

Liveaboards like having picnic tables or a community gathering spot, barbeques, and someplace to get their mail. It’s a good idea to make a list of things you might want in your dream marina, and then call and visit with that in mind. No place will have every wish, but it’s good to know what you want.

People matter

Amenities are important, but people can make or break a marina experience.

The best part of marina life is often the camaraderie with your fellow boaters.

Being able to shoot the breeze and share a drink with other people who love sail-

ing makes the season sweeter. If at all possible, walk the docks and chat with people who already keep their boat there. I meet people every spring who are marina shopping at my marina, and I am happy to talk with them about what life is like at our place. Do people there help watch over your boat when you’re away, adjusting lines if necessary?

Do slip holders get together for happy hours or group meals? Is it noisy there?

These are all good things to ask on a visit.

Management matters, too. Have a talk with the dock master and see how they are with customers. What do they do if slipholders bend the rules? Is there any kind of slipholder loyalty incentive for boat owners that come back season after season? Do they work with long time slipholders to keep them year after year?

It takes a little research, visits if possible, as well as the effort to ask around to really find a good marina for your needs. Once you find a match, it pays off with a home away from home that will keep your boat and you happy for many seasons. #

Six Things Families Seek in a Marina

T

By Sharon Praissman Fisher

here used to be a commercial with the tag line, “A baby changes everything.”

It’s an obvious statement, but you don’t really think about every factor of your life that will be altered until you have that little one. Marina choice is no exception.

Pre-kids, we went for cheap and close to work. Heck, we weren’t actually going to be hanging out there and so didn’t care about amenities. We wanted a place close enough to do after-work sails, and we were gunkholing every weekend. Enter our girls, Mallory and Josette, and our whole world changed, including sailing.

It took some trial and error but after three years of parenting and sailing (pare-sailing?), I finally figured out the most important factors for families when choosing a marina. Cleanliness, configuration, comradery, toddler entertainment opportunities (TEOs), location, and cost are all priorities. Every family is unique, so of course these factors will rate differently depending on the family’s needs and wants. The biggest difference between non-kid and kid sailing is that you spend substantially more time at dock once you have little ones; therefore, marina choice can really make or break a sailing season.

Cleanliness may seem an odd priority based on how messy kids are, but the more time you spend wiping up milk and marker stains, the less tolerant you are of other people’s messes. It’s hard enough parenting; no one wants to deal with an unkempt bath house. Configuration refers to the distance from the parking lot to slip or slip to pool or slip to bathhouse.

We take more stuff now for a weekend than we did for an entire week pre-kid.

We once spent an amazing summer at a ##Enjoying the pool at Fairview Marina.

beautifully secluded slip, but it was over a third of a mile to get from the parking lot to our boat.

That’s a really long walk with a baby and all of her stuff.

The sailing family’s dream is meeting other sailing families with similarly aged kids. A marina buzzing with children is perfection, however hard to find.

What we have found is that comradery comes in all forms. The beauty of sailing is that it brings multiple generations together. Fellow slipholders who are child friendly, warm, and welcoming are a top priority for us. One of the benefits of raising kids on the water is they ##The author and her daughter at Pirate’s Cove in Galesville, MD. learn to connect with people of all ages.

##Priscilla Travis at the mast.

Are you ready for spring commissioning? What does it involve?

Should you do it yourself? What equipment do you need?

T

his year, we asked an experienced boater who’s good at maintaining recreational vessels.

Priscilla Travis has been serving as her own mechanic on both powerboats and sailboats since the late 1970s. She now owns a 42-foot cutter that she’s maintained faithfully both here and in Europe.

Here are excerpts from an interview with Travis containing some advice on how to approach the annual spring commissioning rite: how to decide what to do, whether to do it yourself, and how to organize the whole thing so you don’t omit or overlook something (a frequent problem among do-ityourselfers). Our checklist comes right after that.

56 March 2018 SpinSheet.com

Q. What should you try to accomplish in spring commissioning?

A. Three things: first, tend to things that you neglected to do or may have missed in the fall; second, make sure nothing has deteriorated over the winter; and third, get the boat ready for the new season so you can minimize the chances that something will go wrong when you’re out on the water. That means making sure all systems are ready to go.

Q. How good a mechanic do you have to be to do your own maintenance?

A. Think of it this way: a boat is a floating house. If you can’t do repair tasks around your house (i.e., you have to call a professional for even basic jobs), then you probably shouldn’t be doing more than simple maintenance on your boat.

But if you like doing this kind of thing and you’re comfortable with mechanical tasks, you can get pretty good at it.

You also need to consider your own temperament. If you’re a “detail person” who’s a good observer and will be conscientious about following a checklist,

you should be able to tackle the job yourself. If you’re not, you ought to consider letting a boatyard do the work. Be realistic about your skills and about your ability to learn new things.

Q. Where can you find the information you’ll need to prepare yourself?

A. The maintenance bible for boatowners is the “Boatowner’s Mechanical and Electrical Manual,” by Nigel Calder, which you can find online or at boating supply stores. You can get checklists by typing “boat commissioning” into your search engine (also at proptalk.com/spring).

The important thing is to adjust the checklist to make it fit your boat.

Q. Isn’t that a lot of information to master in a short time?

You don’t have to try to do everything at once. Learn skills and build your knowledge gradually. If you have a technician work on your boat, ask if you can watch. You can learn a lot from observing a skilled mechanic or technician.

You may decide that you can do some of those jobs yourself.

Q. What kind of tools will you need?

A. You don’t have to have a lot of tools but they have to fit the nuts, bolts, screw heads, engine parts, and fittings on your boat. Common hand tools, such as screwdrivers, socket and combination wrenches, pliers, and a hammer, will do, along with a few other tools that you’ll need to change the oil or fix specific equipment on your boat.

Ordinarily, you won’t need any power tools. If you tackle more complex jobs, you may need a few specialized tools, such as a prop-puller or torque wrench.

Use quality tools. If you have metric fittings, make sure you bring tools that will fit them.

Q. What’s the best way to go about spring maintenance?

A. Do it systematically. Study the engine and other equipment manuals from the manufacturers. Besides changing the

60 March 2018 SpinSheet.com

engine oil and filter (if you didn’t do it in the fall), checking belts, and looking for fluid leaks, check the batteries, plumbing and water systems, and electrical system.

Check all hoses, including the head and holding tank.

Q. How long should it take to complete the job?

A. That depends on what kind of boat you have, how big it is, what systems it has, and how old it is. Assuming that there’s nothing wrong, it ought to take you between four and six hours. If you need to paint the bottom, that adds another few hours. And if you own a sailboat, you have to add time to bend on the sails and check or repair the rigging.

The larger and more complex your boat, the more you may have to rely on the services of a professional, and the more time it will take you to do even simple tasks yourself. Twin engines, a refrigerator/freezer, air-conditioning, a generator, a more complicated electri-

cal system—all these require advanced technical knowledge.

You also need to consider that even if a job looks simple, you may not have much room to work. For example, if your engine room is small and cramped, a simple task such as changing an oil filter may take a lot longer than you anticipated—and may require some specialized tools.

Q. What else do you need to do to make sure you’re ready for the boating season?

A. Be sure to conduct a thorough shakedown cruise after you’ve finished. Take along another boater to drive so you can look around the whole boat while under way. Test everything you can, from your throttle and kill-switch to transmission controls and navigational electronics.

Spend at least an hour under way. It’s better to discover problems now than to risk being surprised farther from port.

Here are 10 items that should be on your checklist for spring maintenance. Be sure to adapt the list to fit your own boat: 11. Inspect the boat while she’s ashore.

See any fluid leaks around the engine or in the bilges? Have hose clamps or sea-cock handles come loose or fallen off? Has water entered anywhere below decks? Are ports and hatches secure? Are the batteries dry and properly connected?

How about the hull? Stuffing-box tight?

Need new zincs? Bottom paint?

21. After the boat’s in

the water, check your batteries and engine.

##Nomad at the Clyde Marina, Ardrossan, Scotland.

Is the fuel in good condition? Do the fuel filters need to be changed? Oil level adequate—no leaks or drips?

Transmission fluid at the proper level?

Are belts correctly tensioned? Is the battery holding a charge? Are the terminals and wires clean and tight?

31. Start the engine and run it for half an hour or more, listening for sounds of trouble.

Giving it some run-time enables you to hear a lot of problems in the boat. It also gives the engine a chance to work off some of the moisture that may have collected there during the winter. And it helps charge your batteries.

enough to have electrical, mechanical, water, and waste systems, check them carefully, not just for a quick on-off test.

If you used potable water antifreeze in your water system last autumn, flush all the water tanks with clean water and let them overflow. Make sure your pumps work after having been dry all winter.

51. Next, what about your safety equipment?

Check your fire extinguishers, distress signals, air horn, loud-hailer, and other safety gear to make sure they’re working and not expired. And go through your first aid kit to check the condition of supplies and the expiration dates of any medicines you carry, and replace items that are no longer usable.

61. Don’t forget your

compass, navigation lights, radar reflector, VHFFM marine radio (and a handheld backup radio as well), and chartplotter.

And, if you have a boat trailer, give it the same careful scrutiny you’ve given your boat; look over the trailer hitch, safety chains, tires, bearings, lights, tiedown straps, and signs of rust.

71. Don’t stint, either on time or on money.

91. If you have a sailboat,

it’s good to get a rigging check every couple of years—from a professional rigger,

Ensuring that your boat is properly maintained and equipped isn’t just a point of pride. It’s also a matter of safety—and possibly of life or death—if your boat encounters problems while you’re underway this coming summer. Take your time and do the job thoroughly and right.

if you have a larger boat—and be sure that he or she climbs the mast as part of the inspection. You should get a full report, including the condition of shrouds, stays, and chainplates.

If there’s a problem, get it fixed immediately.

1. Finally, think back over 10

what you’ve done and ask yourself whether you’ve fulfilled the basic objectives that Travis set out at the start: fixing whatever’s gone wrong during the winter and preparing the boat thoroughly to help reduce the risk of problems once the boating season begins.

An Offshore Route to Maine: a First Passage

W

e had spent most of the past three years since October 2013 upgrading and outfitting our sailboat for a longrange cruising dream. We needed a break to actually use and enjoy our boat. So, it was time to actually do some cruising as our reward for all the effort we had invested on what at times seemed an endless to-do list of boat things.

As Annapolis sailors we had a limited vacation time window of three to four weeks for this summer cruise. This limited our available offshore options.

We thought about a cruise to Bermuda as one option. It would fit nicely in a three-week vacation time frame in July.

However, the prospect of being truly offshore crossing the Atlantic toward Bermuda was too ambitious for our inexperienced crew and newly installed boat systems.

We began to look northward since south toward the Caribbean could not be done in our small time frame. The idea of a northeast sail to Nova Scotia began to look possible. The distance and time frame worked for our four week vacation. The challenge would be weather and fog in July in Nova Scotia.

The best time for Nova Scotia is August and September rather than early sum-

mer. We finally settled on a compromise of an offshore route to Mount Desert Island, ME. It would provide the distance challenge without needing to check into a foreign port.

The overall distance from Annapolis to Northeast Harbor, Mount Desert Island, is approximately 650 nautical miles. A week or less passage would be a good boat

and crew experience to have. Cruise planning started in earnest once we selected the destination. The outbound leg was divided into three portions: Annapolis to rounding Cape May; Cape May to rounding Nantucket Shoals; and Nantucket Shoals to Northeast Harbor.

We planned for 14 to 18 hours for the Annapolis to rounding Cape May

portion. The key planning factors were what time to leave Back Creek, what time we would exit the C and D Canal, what the tidal currents would be doing in the canal and Delaware Bay, and finally, what time would we be rounding Cape May. Delaware River is a funnel that starts narrow and widens as one continues southbound. The most critical factor would be slack or favorable tide as we exited the canal into the Delaware River. Having opposing tide current in the Upper Chesapeake and lower Delaware would reduce our speed by a knot. The situation we wanted to avoid was strong tidal current and opposing wind creating rough sea conditions in the upper Delaware River. The tide tables indicated that noon to 1 p.m. would be the ideal time to exit the C and D Canal and turn south into the Delaware River.

Once we rounded Cape May, we would be heading northeast offshore toward Nantucket Shoals. We selected the Nantucket Shoals NOAA Data Lighted Buoy 44008 as the waypoint to keep to port. This is approximately 30 nautical miles from the shoals providing a safe distance in 200-plus-feet deep water. This buoy also marks the entrance to the traffic separation zone

Call For Your Complimentary Offshore Rigging Evaluation! 410.280.2752 for commercial traffic heading to or from New York.

Once we reached the Data Buoy, we would turn north midway between Cape Cod Bay to our port and Georges Bank to our starboard. This third portion of the planned route would be sufficiently off shore in the Gulf of Maine to avoid most navigation concerns until approaching Mount Desert Island.

With best of intentions to be underway by 5 a.m. July 6, we finally left our slip in Back Creek by 6 a.m. Conditions were benign with a cool morning temperature and very light variable wind. We headed toward the Bay Bridge and entrance of the C and D Canal. The Chesapeake Bay was quiet with little traffic for a Wednesday. We made excellent time motoring up the Bay and through the canal exiting as planned just after noon. With the favorable tide in Delaware River we received a speed boost transiting toward Cape May. Weather and sea conditions remained very calm and mostly benign, as forecast

predicted, allowing us to motor-sail this portion of the trip.

We rounded Cape May and the Delaware Bay as the sun was setting behind us. The Atlantic was calm and winds light as we watched a magical sunset pointing northeast toward the Nantucket Shoals Data Buoy waypoint.

Light and variable winds continued the second day as the Jersey Shore began to fade from our view on the horizon. Even though we were disappointed with less than ideal sailing conditions, we were also very grateful for the calm and gentle conditions for our maiden offshore trip. We passed the Nantucket Shoal Data Buoy just past midnight. We were pleasantly surprised to have very light commercial traffic as we passed New York. Our memorable moment was dolphins playing in our bow wave for 30 minutes. Nothing can prepare you for the sheer joy this experience can provide and its lasting effect.

Our heading was mostly north the next day as we moved past Cape Cod on our

Lumpy waves arrived to the party to add challenge to our character-building day. By mid-morning, we were doublereefed hard and bashing into the seas,

steering as close to our planned route as we could. We had hoped the wind would veer, and we would see what the other weather models had predicted. Conditions did not abate until midnight.

The morning fog welcomed calmer conditions the next day. We were grate-

ful for it even though favorable sailing winds had not materialized. By midmorning the fog lifted, and we began our approach to Mount Desert Island.

We entered Northeast Harbor at noon of that day. Passage time was a respectable three and a half days. #

Lessons Learned

• Having an AIS receiver to communicate with all commercial and fishing traffic was essential for safety and crew peace of mind. This can’t be over emphasized. It is very comforting to be able to hail vessels by name and discuss crossing plans.

• Having one of four computer weather models indicate no favorable weather was too high of a risk for offshore sailing. Had we waited for the weather window the following week, we would have had a wonderful sail all the way.

• The offshore route can be modified to transit the Cape Cod Canal rather than round the Nantucket Shoals if weather window is less than ideal to allow a stopover if needed.

• Gore-Tex foul weather gear was essential. Don’t forget about waterproof gloves, sea boots, and waterproof socks. Keeping feet and hands dry and warm was critical.

• Key Way Points Used for route planning: Rounding Cape May to turn NE (38 50.360 N, 74 35.151 W), Rounding Nantucket Shoals to turn N (40 25.481 N, 69 1.996 W), Great Duck Island Light approaching Mount Desert Island (44 8.512 N, 68 14.756 W).

Charter Notes

Cuba Cruisin’ Time Traveling in the Caribbean

By Zuzana Prochazka

“I

s a ’52 Chevy with Peugeot motor,” says our driver in broken English. “No old car has original motor now. But is very nice, yes?” Yes it is, I think as I look around the spiffed up pink convertible. The inside door handle is missing and the vinyl upholstery seems to be one of only four patterns available in Cuba, but it’s a well-loved car for sure.

These old classics that prowl the streets of Havana represent some of the first and best examples of Cuban entrepreneurism, and they’re also just about the only thing that Americans think of when the conversation turns to this lovely island, just 90 miles south of Key West. But Cuba is about much more than old cars. It’s a time capsule with friendly people, great rum drinks and music, and beautiful and rustic cruising that’s hard to find these days in the well-worn Caribbean.

The key to a sailing charter in Cuba is to go in with a smile, a camera, and a completely open mind. Expectations and demands will only get you in trouble. For example, provisioning a yacht charter in Cuba can be challenging when all the produce you see in Havana is nowhere to be found in

Cienfugegos, the town where Dream Yacht Charter is based. If you’re a snacker, your choices are limited. You’ll want to bring your own potato chips, trail mix, cookies, crackers, chocolate, and spices. Or, decide to dust off that New Year’s resolution and just don’t eat the stuff for a week.

Wine is expensive and sketchy, so the national liquor is the go-to. Buy lots of rum for sundowner Mojitos, and also

member, Cubans can fix a 50-year old Buick with a paperclip and a roll of duct tape, so what is “okay” to them may not seem so okay to you once you’re 40 miles from the base.

Also, be wary of the charts where details are sparse and sandbars and underwater wrecks are unmarked. Snorkeling over the mast of a sunken cruising catamaran, all I could think of was the few feet by which I missed this wreckage as we anchored. The charter boats have chartplotters that are only as good as their last software update, which may have been a while ago. But bringing in your own handheld GPS device is not recommended, since these are favorite items among the customs inspectors, and there’s very little WiFi available to run charting software on your phone or tablet. Keep your eyes peeled, and approach everything with caution, just as sailors did decades ago.

Speaking of connectivity while cruising the southern islands: there isn’t any. The resort at Cayo Largo is an exception; since charter boats must check in there as they explore the gorgeous western beaches like nearby Playa Sirena, this is about the only chance to check Facebook and post your selfies

to trade with the local fishermen. These accommodating guys will bring lobsters or filet their fresh catch before your eyes, but they won’t take money since they’re not allowed to. The preferred currency is Havana Club, and you can eat like a king every night for just a few dollars of rum “money.”

Technical briefings are also an exercise in going with the flow but be sure to check your boat thoroughly before departure because there are no mechanics or cruising infrastructure once out on the southern side of the island. Re-

on Instagram. Upshot? You can actually just go sailing, and beachcombing, and pondering the universe at sunset without the digital umbilical cord. It’s the 1960s all over again, and that’s a good thing.

There are few decisions to make here. The first is whether to turn east or

The second decision is which juice to pour into your rum at happy hour.

When you tell a Cuban you’re from the United States, you might as well be a unicorn. They love Americans and don’t get to meet many. They also love having their picture taken as long as you ask. Even the intimidating Guarda police will pose for snapshots when you tell then they’re guapo (handsome).

So, check your American expectations at the border, and you’ll soon be time traveling in paradise, Mojito in hand. ■

Postcard from Petite Terre

tropical paradise,” this spot got tucked into the backs of our imaginations as a hoped-for destination.

Cruising guides paint a much more cautionary tale: While as alluring as our friends promised, Petite Terre is almost completely surrounded by reefs.

A narrow, seven-plus-foot channel offers the only way in and should only be attempted in calm weather. Imray’s Cruising Guide to the Lesser Antilles declares Petite Terre “a death trap” in strong northeast winds, while Chris Doyle warns skippers that they must decide for themselves whether or not they can make it past the entrance.

Fortunately, light winds and friends traveling ahead willing to sound the channel gave us the window we needed to sail to Petite Terre.

Even in calm weather, the entrance through the reef was tricky. In The Cruising Guide to the Leeward Islands Southern Edition, Chris Doyle lists waypoints sailors should honor as they enter the channel. When we entered, waves, some of them

standing up slightly, rolled across the entrance, rocking the boat and pushing it towards shore. Unsettled weather, indeed, would make the entry sheer folly.

Once inside the reef, a mooring field offered about a dozen moorings near the smaller of the two islands.

The protection from the reef eliminated any roll in the anchorage, keeping the boat as flat as if we were tucked up deep in a Chesapeake creek.

Petite Terre offers a feast for the eyes on land and sea. The low-lying, scrubby islands contrast starkly with the mountainous lushness of nearby Guadeloupe. Visitors are allowed access to the larger of the two islands, and both cruisers and day-trippers from nearby Saint-Francois flock to the island. Near the beach, a string of tiny orange moorings provides parking for dinghies, and two-foot-long lemon sharks greet sailors upon landing.

Snorkeling takes place straight off the beach. The shallow clear water catches the early morning sunlight, highlighting myriad stingrays, colorful fish, and occasional octopus. The strong current enables the luxury of an unusual drift snorkel with effortless floating and gaping at the cool creatures nearby.

Back on the main beach, soft sand, picnic tables, fire pits, and swaying palms invite relaxation, while hiking trails encourage exploration of the island and its history.

Archaeological evidence suggests people lived on the islands long before Columbus came across Petite Terre on his second voyage in 1493. European involvement came as early as the 1700s when French settlers on La Désirade built nightly fires to light the way for fishermen to safely navigate around the islands.

The need for safe navigation led to the building of Guade-

Postcard loupe’s first lighthouse, built around 1840, manned until 1972, and still standing today. Now the domain of numerous iguanas, the island once housed the lighthouse keeper as well as a small community of farmers and fishermen, who grew cotton, sweet potatoes, and pumpkins. When the lighthouse was automated in 1972, all permanent inhabitants moved away from the island. From the lighthouse, trails lead to the ruins of their houses as well as to cliffs overlooking the reef. La Désirade sparkles in the distance.

A beach barbecue after dark, when all the day-trippers have gone home, tops off a wonderful stay in this idyllic spot. Swaying palm trees under a full moon coupled with a fire in the fire pit make for a night to remember. While our sojourn in Petite Terre did not last long and we were happy to navigate our exit

as easily as we arrived, the memories of this special place carry on. Perhaps calm winds and light seas will beckon

other sailors to the charms of Petite Terre, with a healthy respect for the whims of the ocean, of course. ■

Discovering the Night Sky

Star Gazing Cruise with ANSA

By Patricia Dempsey

B

oating clubs on the Chesapeake are growing in popularity as they offer members convenient access to sail and powerboats, a social network, and in some cases, training.

But the Annapolis Naval Sailing Association (ANSA), founded in 1967, is unique. ANSA’s membership is open to all sailors: civilian and military, beginner and advanced. ANSA’s mission to help its members become as skilled as offshore crew and skippers, and have fun enjoying the Bay, goes hand-inhand with its high-quality training.

My first foray as a crew member on Fantasea, ANSA’s 44-foot Caribbean sailing yacht, was in early October.

I chose a stargazing cruise with an astronomer onboard to learn about celestial phenomena that electronic devices cannot fully explain.

I’ve read about it, but have never really observed the Summer Triangle.

All those lazy summer evenings looking up at the stars and I missed it: three bright stars—Vega, Deneb, and Altair—mark the corners of the Summer Triangle and are navigational guides to the constellations Lyra, Cygnus, and Aquila. The seasons were in transition, but as our guest astronomer Bob Savoy pointed out, the Summer Triangle was still visible high in the sky. Its three points are formed by three of the sky’s 21 brightest stars.

The Summer Triangle is as noticeable in the summer sky as Orion in the winter and was once used for navigation. U.S. military navigators called it the “Navigator’s Triangle” long before the widespread use of GPS systems and other navigational equipment. This stargazing cruise wasn’t meant to teach celestial navigation (ANSA members can take this class), but it was hard to ignore the relevance to our course of the stars we spotted that evening. We motored and then sailed from ANSA’s

My goal is to ing a beautiful sunset, watching the ‘spread the word’ about the excitement, moon rise, contemplating the stars, awe, and mystery of the universe all on the platform of a sailboat with we live in.” crew who are as fascinated as I, is very enjoyable. Inviting astronomers to teach us during those cruises has been engaging.” ##ANSA’s 44-foot Fantasea.

As we sailed, Savoy pointed out stars and shared close-up images in response to the crew’s questions. He also had a small planet-model on hand. “I use it to show the relative sizes of the planets.

I brought my iPad mini and iPhone so that I could show photos of different sky phenomena, close-up pictures of the planets and moons, of galaxies, and of nebulae, horse-head nebula, pillars of creation, and star nurseries.”

Savoy’s passion for astronomy spread to the crew who quickly zeroed in on Pluto, now officially a “dwarf planet.” Savoy says, “I find Pluto fascinating.

Since the New Horizons spacecraft flew by Pluto on July 14, 2015, we have learned so many amazing things about it.”

Five years ago, Savoy joined the Howard Astronomical League (HAL), and is treasurer of this astronomy club in Columbia, MD, that hosts monthly star parties open to the public. He also volunteers at the planetarium/NatureSphere at the Robinson Nature Center in Columbia and reaches students through Project ASTRO, a group out of Towson University that matches teachers with astronomers, and at STEM Fairs in elementary schools.

“I like to help a person feel familiar with the sky, as they might with their own town. In this sense, I point out easily recognized patterns in the sky, like the Summer Triangle,” he says.

As we cruised, our skipper offered the helm to each of us. I am a novice piloting a 44-foot yacht but relished the chance to learn. This prompted more questions. How many boating clubs offer stargazing cruises such as this one, as well as opportunities for training?

One of Annapolis’ most unique traditions.

ANSA was founded 50 years ago

by U.S. Navy personnel at the U.S. Naval Academy and originally was open to military and Department of Defense civilians, according to Openshaw. “Now ANSA is open to anyone interested in sailing. It is one of a number of chapters within the U.S. Naval Sailing Association.”

Openshaw joined ANSA 14 years ago “to learn how to sail better by taking their great sailing classes.”

The reasonable membership fees and quality of the instruction set ANSA apart from other clubs on the Chesapeake. “ANSA teaches high-quality sailing courses according to standards of the American Sailing Association and the U.S. Naval Sailing Association,” says Openshaw, an accomplished sailor and ANSA instructor. In fact, through members he met at ANSA, Openshaw became an active volunteer with the U.S.

2018

Navy’s sailing program, serving as a sailing coach for five years.

Openshaw is co-teaching the club’s Piloting and Navigation course and will again teach ANSA’s beginning and advanced sailing courses, including Bareboat Cruising and Watch Captain. He especially enjoys long-range cruising, having sailed most of the East Coast, parts of the Bahamas, the Gulf, BVI, Greece, and Croatia.

The annual individual membership for the no-frills, volunteer-based ANSA costs $65. In season, ANSA offers day, evening, and overnight cruises for varying fees and options for private use of Fantasea. ANSA’s cruising preparations begin in March and April, and the season starts as early as weather allows. For more information visit ansa.org, and contact operations@ansa.org with questions. ■

Finding a New Club

By Lee Budar-Danoff

I

magine sailing year-round in Hawaii: deep blue waters, consistent trade winds, and Diamond Head rising behind your Friday night races; growing up at Waikiki Yacht Club, taking Saturday junior sailing classes, and racing keelboats on the weekends offshore and inter-island.

Now imagine moving 5000 miles away, knowing no one and nothing about sailing on the legendary Chesapeake Bay. How do you find a group to join? One convenient to where you live, and willing to take a

stranger as crew? SpinSheet is a great resource. I attended a crew party and received invitations, but the boats were too far for me to reach on a weeknight.

A simple Google search suggested the Rock Creek Racing Association (RCRA).

The RCRA sails out of Rock Creek, off the Patapsco River and minutes from the Bay. Their website included information on members and boats, the four series of races they host on Wednesday nights, along with other races they sponsor including the Star-

Spangled Classic and the Francis Scott Key Classic. RCRA also hosts races with the Maryland Yacht Club.

After contacting the group, I received a couple of offers to race. RCRA members were more than welcoming. It turns out many racing boats are in need of experienced crewmembers, or those who wish to learn, and can show up for a weeknight race. I’ve been fortunate to race on several.

The boats sail from many marinas on Rock Creek including Oak Harbor (which hosts the RCRA), Fairview Marina, White Rocks Marina, and Maryland Yacht Club.

A few are docked at their owners’ homes.

Each boat hosts a post-race dinner on the deck at Oak Harbor once during the season, and boats are also scheduled to perform race committee duties.

I’ve enjoyed meeting and racing with many skilled sailors. Last year I finally got to race my own boat, Kaimana (Beneteau First 38), with RCRA and in turn invited new crew members to race with us. New member boats (in spinnaker or nonspinnaker divisions) and crew are always welcome. I’m enjoying my new adventures and new sailing family on the Chesapeake.

By Rich Freeman, Catalina 34 Fleet 12

atalina 34 Fleet 12 members met Saturday, January 6 at the Pirates Cove restaurant in Galesville, MD, for their winter membership get-

together. Twenty-six members braved the cool, windy weather to gather to renew friendships, make new ones, and plan the coming sailing season.

Fleet captain Denise Gill opened the gathering with a synopsis of last year’s events and her overall vision of the 2018 season. Members volunteered to host raft-ups in different parts of the Chesapeake Bay. Before devouring the wonderful meal provided by the restaurant, Dave Schreder was elected by acclimation as the new fleet captain.

Fleet 12 of the Catalina 34 International Association is located in the Chesapeake Bay. Most of our boats are docked at marinas in the central portion of the Bay near Annapolis. Usually our cruising grounds range from just north of the Bay Bridge to the Little Choptank and Patuxent Rivers. For more information visit c34.org/fleet-12, or email c34fleet12captain@gmail.com.

The Corinthians – Chesapeake Bay Fleet’s Deep Freeze Thaw

he arctic air provided a long stretch of subnormal temperatures for the first part of 2018. This made the annual Bah! Humbug! party even cozier and gave fodder for complaints about, “I’d rather be sailing” with “in a warm place” added to the regular tag-line. Host Mary West opened her Crownsville home to the fleet and prospective members for food,

drink, and white-elephant gift exchange.

You never know what you will leave with, but it seemed that this year’s offerings were a bit more imaginative than in past swaps. The pot luck feature of this gathering included a variety of entrees, finger-foods, desserts, and wine. This also served as a meet and greet for prospective members; several came as guests, so we look forward to seeing them at future events. Special thanks to Mary and Brent for their continued support of the organization and in opening their kitchen and home to the fleet.

Cynthia Pyron was on hand to present several awards. John Pasley received the Cooke Memorial Trophy for his distinguished service to the organization. An engraved crystal plaque was given to John since the

actual glass encased model of the ketch Seven Bells is on permanent display at the Eastport Yacht Club where the Pasleys are members. He is the only member in the history of The Corinthians to receive the Cooke Trophy twice. Hank and Susan Theuns received the Activities Afloat Award for their joint contributions for innovative activities, promotion, and photography. Activities such as chicken wings and cheesecake contest, progressive dinner raftup, and the monkey around dinghy relay race were specifically mentioned. Variations of these afloat events are planned to be reprised in some fashion for 2018.

In another month or so the fleet will begin preparations for the spring shakedown to make sure all are in ship-shape for the Annual Cruise in June with the Little Ship Club from England. This promises to be a memorable event. Make your reservations early, and put in your orders for good weather now. For more information about Corinthian events, go to thecorinthians.org.

Ahoy Dickerson Owners ahnd Enthusiasts

##The traditional Dickerson Race held as part of the group’s anniversary rendezvous.

By Barry Creighton

e send our very best wishes for 2018. Thus far I’ve kept my resolution to sail every month in 2018. Boy, was it cold! Things will only get better as we look forward to seeing many of you in June at the Rendezvous.

Our commodore and Dickerson Owners Association (DOA) directors are already hard at work planning the event with the expectations of The Best Ever.

This is the time when a couple of us dig into producing the 2018 Dickerson Owners’ Directory. Renewing members: Please check a previous directory (preferably last year’s) for accuracy, and send me any changes. New owners/members: I need your name, address, phone numbers (home/cell), email address. Please also send your boat name, size, year built, rig (sloop/ cutter/ketch), hull number, model sequence number (this is the number that should go on your sail), USCG documentation num-

ber, hailing port (what’s on the stern), actual port (where you keep her), previous boat names, previous boat owners. Send me what you know. I’ll help you find the rest. barry937@cox.net Send me pictures! With a hardy thanks to Al Sampson, we have the opportunity to make this year’s Directory bigger and better than ever before. I want to include more pictures of you (this includes associate members) and your boats. For those of you planning to attend the Rendezvous, I additionally request pictures that show unique features of your particular Dickerson (tanks for 400 gallons of water, a separate tank for rum, bronze winches, chairs instead of settees, etc.)

Please save the date for the 53rd annual Dickerson Rendezvous in Oxford, MD, June 15-17. The awards dinner will be held

at the historic Robert Morris Inn. Dating from 1710, it was the home of Robert Morris and his son who gained fame as “Financier of the American Revolution.”

The Rendezvous program is a full one: parade of Dickersons, boat visits, commodores’ cook out, the traditional Dickerson race, and an awards dinner with an outstanding program featuring discussion of “Your Boat – What Makes It Unique.”

Thanks in advance; I look forward to your notes. For now, keep the dry side up and the wet side down.

The Last Hurrah of the InterClub Midwinters

he final InterClub (IC) Midwinters at Severn Sailing Association (SSA) in Annapolis unfolded January 27-28. “It’s a wrap!” Alex Pline says, “We had a beautiful day of sailing Saturday with temps in the 50s, sunshine, and a shifty southeasterly to southwesterly breeze. Unfortunately, Sunday brought rain, thick fog, and zero wind, so we abandoned the regatta at 12:30 p.m.”

What ended up being a one-day regatta was run in a college-style fleet racing format with A and B Teams. The winning team of Steve Benjamin/Trevor Davis and Jim Bowers/Lydia Brown sailed a consistent regatta to edge out the team of Simon Strauss/Julie Lelek and Jesse Falsone/Erika Seamon by three points.

A past Olympic medalist, 505 World Champion, 2015 Rolex Yachtsman of the Year, and 2017 Etchells World Champion, Benjamin sailed with 15-year-old Davis. Even though Davis has sailed since he was six years old, moved into 420s a few years ago, and is now moving into the I-420 circuit, sailing with “Benj,” who’s a close family friend, was still special for the St. Mary’s High School student.

“I’ve known him for many years but never sailed with him until now,” says Davis. “He has a really professional style. We communicated a lot and were Follow us!

tactical in controlling the sail plan and the heel of the boat.”

Davis had only done some training days in an IC in Larchmont, NY, but not yet competed in the boat prior to this event. When asked if he bailed a lot (as IC crew have been known to do), he said it wasn’t bad.

“We were focused and looking to put up good results. We didn’t think that first set would be our only one, so we wanted to keep it up.”

Davis noted that they succeeded despite a last-minute fix and jury-rigged mainsheet block for one of the races.

“It was great to have our names on the trophy for the last IC Midwinters in Annapolis and to be part of that legacy.”

The farewell regatta for the IC Midwinters will be remembered for many reasons; an on-water medical emergency may top the list. SSA race committee and competitors responded quickly to a life-threatening situation and followed emergency procedures impressively. They saved a life. If and when the family would like to talk about it publicly, you will read about it here in SpinSheet. For now, it suffices to say that the family is most grateful for the professionalism and seamanship at SSA. Following the emergency, what was slated to be a big party was more of a quiet gathering for sharing stories in the warm clubhouse.

Pline says, “Thanks to all who came to help us officially close out the latest incarnation of the SSA IC fleet. It was a great final hurrah.

Many thanks to Jesse Falsone for keeping the torch lit all these years and—as Jonathan Lange put it—carrying the rest of us along, sometimes against our will.” severnsailing.org

Shorthanded Sailing Society All Are Invited March 3 ##Photo by James Little/ CHESSS

T

he Chesapeake Shorthanded Sailing Society (CHESSS) is announcing a General Meeting for March 3, and all are invited to hear stories of CHESSS activities. Last December, members gathered at the beautiful Potapskut Sailing Association clubhouse to hear presentations from several Bermuda 1-2 skippers on their offshore experiences during the 2017 race. It was an amazing event hearing their very personal and challenging stories and their answers to questions from the CHESSS group.

The upcoming March meeting will present some important initiatives for the 2018 sailing season. The High Point Races will be listed as well as the new list of challenges planned for this year. The board also has some interesting financial topics for members to vote on that will effect the direction of the club. All members are encouraged to make the meeting, as we need your input and support.

So mark your calendars, Saturday March 3, 11a.m. to 1 p.m., and join us at the Union Jack British Pub for some great sailing stories and fun. Check out the CHESSS website for more: chbaysss.org.

EYC to Score with ToT

pettitpaint.com ##EYC Boomerang Race photo by Al Schreitmueller

E

astport Yacht Club (EYC) announces that handicap scoring across all events in 2018 will be to the PHRF of the Chesapeake Bay Time-on-Time (ToT) system.

The Time-over-Distance rating will continue to be used to calculate and score pursuit-style starts. ToT scoring will be applied to the handicap classes competing in the Fawcett Friday Night Beer Can Series, Miles River Race Back, Leukemia Cup, Boomerang Race, and Leftover Bowl.

Additionally, use of the Circular Random (CR) rating will be expanded. EYC first used the CR rating in 2017 for the Miles River Race Back and the Boomerang Race, and that approach will continue in 2018.

However, based on consultation with PHRF of the Chesapeake, the CR rating will also be applied to the Fawcett Friday Night Beer Can Series and Leftover Bowl.

In conjunction with EYC’s change for the Miles River Race Back, the Miles River Yacht Club also announced that they will implement the ToT CR rating to score the Annapolis to Miles River Race. The two clubs agree that a single consistent approach for the back-to-back races was the best and only acceptable approach for competitors.

EYC race committee Chair Keith Jacobs stated that EYC is always looking for ways to improve competitiveness and fairness for all competitors, and these changes are part of that process.

“We are eager to organize racing such that all skippers feel that they have a fair chance to compete and win their class,” said Jacobs. “EYC believes that ToT scoring provides a more equitable scoring approach, and we are eager to see how it plays out over the course of the season.”

Chesapeake Sailors Gear Up for Charleston Race Week

By Chris Teixeira

A

t print time, there were already 180 entries for Sperry Charleston Race Week, April 12-15, and 20-plus boatloads from the Chesapeake.

Without Key West Race Week in the mix anymore, this will be the first big

event of 2018 for many sailors. Last year there were 211 boats in Charleston, making it one of the largest events on the East Coast.

There are a lot of reasons to love this event. The commute to and from the

inshore courses is usually just 15 to 20 minutes, which leads to a civilized dock call. The racing itself tends to be quick and exciting due to the constraints of the geography. It’s not a particularly spacious area to stuff four racing circles, so the courses can sometimes be on the shorter side depending on the direction of the wind.

The Wando, Ashley, and Cooper Rivers all flow into Charleston Harbor, so the current is no joke. There are shifts everywhere on which to make gains (and losses), and with course distances on the shorter side, really good crew work is always a necessity.

The offshore course for the bigger boats brings racers everything including flat conditions, proper ocean swells, and confused washing machine seas; it challenges crews to be well-rounded, and it isn’t all about straight line speed.

The party delivers. Staged as a beach party, there are beautiful views of Charleston Harbor, and you can catch sunset over the city each night. The dinners that are served up rarely disappoint and there are multiple bars serving up the Goslings and beer without (usually) too much of a wait. Even when the lines do get a little longer, attendees commonly embrace the whole concept of good Southern manners, and there tends to be a good band playing on the event stage, so it’s never all that bad.

Sperry Charleston Race Week participates in the Sailors for the Sea Clean Regattas Program, so make sure to thank the Green Team and sponsors who help make this event more sustainable. Clean water benefits all sailors, so we do appreciate the efforts. Pack your reusable water bottle!

SYRF: A Revolution Ahead in the Science of Sailing?

here are very few of us, racers and cruisers alike, who have not wondered at how our boat performs under sail and sought to go faster. To reach our final destination as efficiently as possible, which we so often wish to do, requires understanding the physics at work when we trim our sails and get underway.

The aero- and hydrodynamic science that lies behind the phenomena of sailing performance is complex. Any attempt to explain the physics of sailing requires a copious amount of equations and diagrams, enough to make even the most experienced sailor’s head spin.

As impressive as this explanation is, large information gaps remain, many of which can only be explored with the help of modern computing.

The first attempts to harness computers to understand more about the science underlying sailing and how it relates to boat design was in the 1970s at the MIT Pratt Project. Out of this came the Velocity Prediction Programs (VPPs) that are in use by rating rules and designers today.

Over the past 12 years the Sailing Yacht Research Foundation (SYRF) has been focused on supporting research projects that help improve the science that rating systems use to create handicaps. To pursue this effort requires constant vigilance on how the process can improve with new technologies in analysis tools, and for these tools to be as good (or better) as those designers use to create new boat designs and even sail designs, too.

“The VPPs in current use by the rating systems are essentially a mixed bag of formulations from legacy data from, 88 March 2018 SpinSheet.com

for example, tank tests done in the 1980s to some new hydro data for high performance hulls that we supported in SYRF’s Wide Light project,” said Jay Hansen, president of SYRF. “This has led to great improvements in our understanding of how these new generation boats perform in handicap fleets.

But we need more.”

According to Hansen, more means much, much more. The tools exist now to have a much more sophisticated approach to not only understanding the forces of lift and drag on the hull and in the sails, but integrating them together for an accurate and complete characterization of boat performance. Rating rule systems struggle to reach this integration due to their older programming framework based on new patches added to the older formulations.

“Given that the CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) tools are available now, what we need is a revolution

in the way these rating systems handle measurements and evaluate performance potential across all boat types,” he said. “These new tools are faster, more efficient and consistent than what is in current use.” It’s like everything else in modern life now: we can drive an old car that gets us from A to B, but a new one will have systems that are better engineered to get us there faster and more safely and comfortably.

Among the projects SYRF is supporting is what’s being called PPP (Performance Prediction Program), a far-reaching overhaul of the science behind handicapping. The first aero phase of this study was published last year by JB Braun and Michael Richelsen of the North Design Group with encouraging results, and the next step will be to couple aero studies with hull performance.

“There is still a lot of work to be done,” says Hansen, “this is costly and time-consuming work. But the end result will be worth it: a modern, versatile tool that rating systems can use to better handle the wide varieties of boats on the water today: old and new, racing and cruising, and monohulls and multihulls.”

“This promises to be a revolution in the way handicap racing will be done in the future.”

##What if in the next race, you and your skipper switched places? Photo by Dan Phelps

Small Boat Scene

Trading Places “W

ow, things do look different from here,” I thought, as I swiveled my head back to look at my Snipe skipper, from the “adventure land” crew position, “and they feel different, too.”

I had just been at a Laser Radial regatta, where it was me, myself, and I alone on a boat for seven days in a row.

I ran out of jokes to tell myself early in the week and had to actually focus on sailing. The weekend after I got home, I was lucky enough to hop back in the front seat of a Snipe, where I have spent most of my recent sailing hours.

After the first race of the day, my skipper commented, “I can tell you have just spent a lot of time on a Laser.”

By Kim Couranz

Hmm. Did that mean I was talking to myself more than usual? Nope.

Her point was that I had a good strategic concept of the racecourse— likely stemming from having used my brain that way for a week of Lasering.

That got me to thinking. Skipper and crew positions can be such different experiences—and especially on doublehanded boats, skipper and crew rely on each other so much. It’s critical for each teammate to understand the other’s many roles and the stuff you both have to do and deal with. Here are some of the big differences, but remember, every kind of boat is different, so your experience may differ!

Skippers…

• Are ultimately responsible for not running into any other boats (or other stuff, for that matter).

• While racing, usually make the bigpicture racecourse decisions (e.g. I want to stay on the lefthand side of the course).

• Often have very small and very big picture concepts of wind/weather on the racecourse: they track the wind that will hit them in the next five seconds because that’s where they’re immediately driving, but they can also generally move their bodies around more readily than a hardhiking crew can to see wind across the racecourse.

SpinSheet.com March 2018 89

Racing News presented by KILLER SPEEDCOATING • Get to feel how the boat feels, through the tug of the tiller (weather or leeward helm to help determine sail trim for better boat balance).

• Have a better view of whether the boat is flat or not.

Sail Fast!

Have Fun!

have a “crew race” at some point during a weekend, where everybody swaps spots. That gives crews the full experience of not only driving, but also thinking about race course management from a very different perspective. Be careful to do this at the right time, though: Many crews have gotten into sailing only through crewing, so actually driving a boat may be a big hurdle for them to get over. Choose the right weather conditions—nothing too windy or too light—to help them appreciate the feel of the helm without it being too intimidating.

• Then, once you get back into your original seat, the greater understanding of what your skipper or crew does and has to deal with will make you a better teammate. So get out there and take a boat for a test drive… or a test crew!

Crews…

• Often have a better view sailing upwind of where some other boats are by looking through windows on the jib (e.g. keeping an eye out for starboard tackers).

• Upwind, often have a better view of the wind and waves in the immediate vicinity (arriving in the next 30 seconds or so) and can relay that along to skipper to better prepare them (“big waves in four boatlengths”).

• If they’re hiking hard, often crews can’t see the compass.

• Downwind, have a better view of all wind; they can see all the breeze

•

headed down the race course: big, medium, and small picture.

Have to rely on “butt feel” to determine whether the boat is flat, how it’s playing on waves and in puffs.

What each team member can contribute to boathandling, strategy based on weather and wave conditions, and tactics based on where other boats and the fleet are headed vary greatly. Knowing that you each know different stuff and feel different things can be a great motivator for better and more frequent communications.

How do you grow this knowledge?

You’ve got to swap spots! Maybe let your crew drive in from the race course after racing. Set up a practice day where you spend about half the time in each other’s dinghy boots.

Even better, maybe you have a fleet that’s willing to work together to

Mastering the Basics

What is the effect of backstay tension on mainsail shape?

Follow us!

##Photo courtesy of Quantum

f you have a mast that bends when you apply backstay tension, you have a powerful tool for controlling mainsail shape. If you have an older mast with little mast bend, the primary effect of backstay tension will be on the headstay.

The way it works is simple. First, get past the concept of the backstay simply pulling aft on the mast. In reality, much of the force is directed down toward the deck. The mast compresses under this tension. Imagine a straw that you set against a table and push down on. This is basically what is happening to your mast as you add backstay tension. Assuming you start with a little bit of pre-bend (mast bending forward at the middle), the compression induced by the backstay will increase the bend forward at the middle of the mast. This has a couple of effects.

First, as the middle of the mast moves forward, the luff of the mainsail is pulled away from the leech. This flattens the sail just as pulling on the outhaul and moving the clew away from the tack flattens the foot of the sail. It just does it over a much larger area since the whole mast is moving forward to some extent. The more bendable the mast, the easier it is to add backstay and flatten (de-power) the sail. On many small boats which don’t have a backstay, pulling on the mainsheet has the same effect.

Tensioning the mainsheet tensions the mainsail leech. The leech acts like a backstay to induce compression and mast bend. The boom vang can also help. Pulling on the vang pulls down

on the boom to control leech tension, but it also forces the boom forward, pushing bend into the lower sections of the mast.

Second, when you compress the mast with the backstay, the head of the sail gets closer to the clew.

This opens the leech of the mainsail (induces “twist). Normally whenever you add backstay, you need to add mainsheet (or vang) to keep the twist the same (unless of course you want to depower even more by adding twist).

Finally, mast bend also shortens the distance between head and tack, making the luff go soft. You will see the telltale sign of horizontal wrinkles

perpendicular to the mast appear as you add backstay. To compensate, add luff tension with either the halyard or cunningham. Conversely, when you ease the backstay, you need to remember to ease luff tension and ease the mainsheet or vang.

It all goes together in an endless loop!

On boats equipped with the right tools, adjusting the backstay and related controls constantly as conditions change is the key to changing gears.

Sail Selina II, out of St Michaels, MD, is officially expanding this year, and that means bringing on an additional captain and crew, including Coast Guard Licensed Captain Linda Morgan. “I’m honored to be part of the history of this extraordinary yacht. From the time I first laid eyes on Selina II I knew I had to sail her,” says Morgan. She brings with her 50 years of boating experience beginning as an eightyear-old child sailing (both cruising and racing) with her parents; and as an adult licensed captain of the Skipjack Martha Lewis. The 2018 sailing season runs from April 27 to October 31. sailselina.com

Acquisitions

Atlantic Cruising Yachts has reached an agreement to acquire Florida Yacht Group and will now represent the Jeanneau brand in the Florida market. Headquartered in Annapolis, Atlantic Cruising Yachts believes the expansion will be a major benefit for yacht owners, improving availability and delivery timelines for new Jeanneau yachts, due to Atlantic Cruising Yachts’ size and strong relationship with manufacturers. Florida Yacht Group is headquartered in Riviera Beach, FL. Current principle Marty Neagelin will join Atlantic Cruising Yachts’ management team as national sales director. atlantic-cruising.com; floridayacht.com

With more than 35 years of operations, asset management, and training experience, Tim Dowling is now senior vice president of operations for the Trident Marine Group. Starting in the maritime industry at age 16, he has spent his life in multiple facets of recreational and commercial boating.

In 2011, he was hired as vice president of operations for Coastal Properties Management based in Annapolis, MD. Dowling’s focuses on a high level of customer service, investing in the best personnel, and maximizing profitability have helped the success of these properties. Dowling has also served on numerous maritime boards and is currently a director for the Marine Trades Association of Maryland. trident-marine.com

Reopening in St. Martin

The Moorings and Sunsail have reopened charter operations in St. Martin as of February 1. Both brands are also pleased to announce their new charter base location at Marina Fort-Louis, and new yachts are expected to arrive in St. Martin in 2018, as a part of a $66.5 million investment in the Caribbean fleet. Throughout the cruising grounds, there are some places that are still recovering from Hurricane Irma, but there is plenty to do and see on a St. Martin charter vacation. Many local businesses are open, eager to welcome back guests. Since The Moorings and Sunsail teamed up to launch the Caribbean Comeback fundraiser in October, much progress has been made to help restore and rebuild, but the islands still need support; the best way to support the recovery is to visit the islands. moorings.com; sunsail.com

Chesapeake Classic

##Eastport Yacht Club has been a great new venue for the Annapolis Crew Party, still our largest one.

##A sunny 2007 Crew Party at the Annapolis Maritime Museum.

##The Geckos have played steel drum music at every Annapolis Crew Party for 22 years.

##Everyone at SpinSheet Crew Parties comes to make new sailing friends.

SpinSheet Crew Parties, a Tradition Worth Keeping E

very spring since 1996, SpinSheet has hosted its annual Crew Parties. They’ve always been a hit with sailors looking to meet new people and launch the season. They’ve also become must-attend parties for newcomers to the Chesapeake and to the sport of sailing.

What started as an Annapolis tradition two decades ago has grown to include other areas on the Bay. Each party has its own personality: Our Annapolis one is the biggest and will feature sailing exhibitors and a crew board.

The Solomons gathering is in a more intimate setting but guaranteed to bring

you sailing invitations. Our Hampton Crew Party is laid-back yet filled with skippers looking for new crew members, and our Baltimore Party—at the Crazy Tuna Tiki Bar in Essex—is new this year to introduce Upper Bay crew and skippers.

As always, our parties are free and open to all. If you come by yourself, you won’t be the only one who does.

Everyone gets a nametag at the door, and all guests come ready to meet new sailors. Won’t you join us in the fun?

This year’s parties are sponsored by Harken and Musto. Learn more at spinsheet.com/crew-parties. #
