TRANSCRIPT
COMMODORE’S
CORNER
July 2007
John Eggum was born to a
couple of Norwegian immi-
grants and had a normal child-
hood for that era. He and his
pals made their own fun. In
John’s words, “they were on
their own.” They dug caves,
built clubhouses, tree houses
and soapbox cars. He went crawdad fishing in Compton Creek,
sort of a swamp in those days. They even had time for some mis-
chief - John and a pilot friend tossed toilet paper into the Coli-
seum from an open airplane.
When he was 14 years old, he bought an automobile engine
for $30.00 with paper route money. Then he found a doorless
Model A Ford that a gentleman burned trash in. He got this free
and moved it on 4 wagons to a
vacant lot next door to his
home. Some doors were found
attached to an abandoned car
on another vacant lot. In the
middle of taking the doors off,
an irritated man with a gun
came out of the house next-
door announcing ownership of
the car and its doors. Always a
smooth talker, John soon pur-
chased the doors for $4.00.
John actually built his first car and was driving it around when
he was soon stopped by the local constabulary. This was during
WWII and you could get a drivers license at 15 so using this car,
and after pointing out a stranger across the room as his mom, he
was legal. All this stuff he did on his own. Even today John and
Jean take their latest beautiful hot-rod to cruise nights.
John has had a variety of jobs including being a house mover.
It all came together for them as a couple when they both ended
up working at North American Aviation, later Rockwell. Jean
started as a secretary and ended up an analyst. In 1947, John
started as a drill press operator earning $1.05 per hour and when
he retired 40 years later he was the Director of Manufacturing for
the Space Shuttle. For both, talk about talent rising to the top!
John and Jean were together on the North American Bowling
Team. They fell in love, got married, bought a sabot and in 1967
joined KHYC. Over the years, they had several powerboats and a
sailboat. John’s first boating experience, just out of high school:
he and a friend launched a boat at marine stadium in the middle
of a regatta. The
other boaters were
amused. They threw
beer cans at them
and tried to hit them
with oars. After join-
ing KHYC, they
found true Corin-
thian Sprit on the
water.
We know Jean as the
lady that keeps us on
our toes. She started being outgoing in the second grade when
instead of sitting in her seat she went visiting the other kids. One
of her early jobs was as a dancing instructor; and we are now the
beneficiaries of this background. At KHYC, some of the social
events she dreamed up and made happen were: five fashion
shows, two talent shows, a shipwreck party, the tailgate party, a
floor show with Mexican dancers. All in all, she planned over 20
social events. She was
the First Mates Skip-
per and the Power
Boat Fleet Captain.
And she hasn’t
stopped: she is plan-
ning Dancing with
the Stars, which will
feature some profes-
sional dancers she’s
rounded up and is
planning the Santa
Barbara Race Shrimp Feed to be held in August.
A few months back, some of the more observant of us proba-
bly noticed John working on our docks; his white truck backed up
to a work site located in the west yard. He had some help, but this
was primarily a one-man show and a tremendous effort rebuilding
most of our rigging docks. This was a task he was well suited for
because he, along with Jack Manerian, built almost all of our
docks. He also built cabinets inside the Clubhouse, helped build
the wooden deck of our boat yard, the small lockers, the sabot
lockers and the laser and sabot racks. In addition he has for years
repaired our wooden furniture and many other things inside and
outside the Club.
John and Jean have been a tremendous team with different
talents. What they have in common is that when something
needed to be done, they stepped up and quietly did it. They are
always in good spirits, with great big smiles, which rubs of on the
rest of us.

THE LIFE OF VICE
As I predicted last month, June turned into a busy month for
our racers. Race Chairman Jerry Martin tirelessly organized the
Area J US Sailing Singlehanded Elimination Regatta early last
month and we had some great racers out on the water. Congratu-
lations to our very own junior member Ryan Hoeven for winning
the day! Ryan will go on to compete in the US Sailing Single-
handed Laser Championship (O’Day Cup) in New Jersey later in
July. Go get ‘em Ryan!
One week later Brian Angel successfully ran the Prince of
Wales Area J Elimination Regatta featuring a fleet of very fast
Martin 242s. KHYC was represented by not one, but two teams
led by skippers Scott DeCurtis and Steve Natvig. The good news
is that we have not one, but three KHYC teams going to compete
in the Prince of Wales Championship! Congratulations to Scott
DeCurtis and his team (first place) and Steve Natvig and his team
(second place) for making it through the qualifier. They will all be
going to Newport, Rhode Island in September and will face off
against own very own Brian Angel in pursuit of the cup. Great
job!
And if that isn’t enough match racing, the Area J Sail Off for
the US Junior Triplehanded Championship (Sears Cup) is being
held this month on July 7 and 8. This is a great opportunity to see
some very close, tight races. So take you boat and become a part of
a spectator fleet a la Louis Vuitton and America’s Cup. Root for
your hometown team and cheer them on to victory.
See you at the Club or on the water.
DINGHY DOCK DETAILS
Who in their right mind wants to get their feet wet when go-
ing ashore at our cove facility on Catalina? To change this sce-
nario, a dingy dock is being planned and it has generated enthusi-
asm. So much so that a new fleet, the Cove Fleet, was formed, in
part, because of the prospect of having this dock.
The first steps, which initially were thought to be easy,
proved difficult. The project started in the middle of last year.
After many months, we obtained the consent of our facility land-
lord and have recently obtained regulatory approval.
It was first proposed that we could build it, own it and use it
as a private dock. Not so, says the Coastal Commission, which
requires that the dock “…shall be available for use by the general
public. … It is approved for public boat-related uses only.” We
cannot have this dock unless we agree to this. We would build a
dock for public use “only”; we own it, pay for it, maintain it and
we are responsible for anyone who gets injured because of it. As a
safety measure, we are required to close the dock when no one
from KHYC is at the cove by posting “closed” signs. Although we
are in the process of adding the dock to our liability insurance,
one big claim could negatively impact the insurance on our entire
Club.
The full cost of this dock has not been established, but it will
probably exceed the budgeted $42,000. There will also be mainte-
nance costs. Since this dock will be located on a northwest-facing
beach it is susceptible to storms and can only be operated from
June 15 until October 1 each year. This is a requirement of our
landlord and the Government. We will not have it for the yearly
Cove Clean up, or for Memorial Day. We must pay to have it
removed and replaced each year, and pay to have it securely
stored. John, Janine and Jerry, the Flag Officers

COME WATCH THE START LINES OF A CALIFORNIA CLASSIC: JULY 9, 12 & 15
44TH TRANSPACIFIC YACHT RACE (LOS ANGELES TO HAWAII)
Further proof that sailing can be a spectator sport will be offered when the 44th Biennial Transpac Race to Honolulu starts off Point Fermin Park this July. This year the start line has been moved from the point off the Palos Verdes Peninsula where the race has started for more than a quarter century back to where the races started in the 1960’s and 1970’s. The new location is 2 1/2 miles closer to Los Angeles Harbor.
The best viewing will be where Gaffey Street ends atop the bluffs of Point Fermin Park. The park will be more accommodating to spectators with a much closer view, grassy areas for picnicking, and plenty of shade.
Starts for various classes are scheduled for Monday July 9, Thursday July 12 and Saturday July 15 — the biggest and fastest boats start last. For more information please see their website: www.transpacific.org.

PRINCE OF WALES AREAS G, H, J, AND L
SEMIFINAL RESULTS
King Harbor Yacht Club had the prestigious honor of hosting
this year’s west coast qualifier for the US Match Race Champion-
ships – otherwise known as the “Prince of Wales.” Specifically, this
was the semifinal for US Sailing Areas G, H, J and L, from which
the top two finishers move on to the Final, to be hosted by the
New York Yacht Club in New-
port, Rhode Island. The event
was sailed in Martin 242s, and
thanks to the tremendous
support of the Martin 242
fleet, we had 8 boats available
for the six teams racing.
Conditions were perfect
for both Saturday and Sun-
day, with roughly 8–12 knots
of wind. Fifteen flights were
completed over three round
robins, which meant that a
total of 45 races were sailed! Match race courses are typically only
20–25 minutes long, which allows for a lot of close racing, and
that’s just what we had all weekend.
The stand-out team for the event was skippered by Scott De-
Curtis along with crew Adam and Judge. Through the 15 flights,
they lost only two races, and easily qualified for the top spot and a
berth in the Prince of Wales Final.
The fight for second place was much closer, however. With
only 3 flights of racing left, there were still 3 teams in the hunt for
the 2nd spot. Leading the group was our young King Harbor team
led by Steven Natvig, with crew Blake Smisko and Wes Byrne. In
the 14th flight of the regatta, Steven and team sailed off against
the Mission Bay team with a chance to clinch 2nd overall, and the
final entry to the Prince of Wales Final. With seconds left to the
start, our boys found themselves “locked out” at the committee
boat, unable to start. With nowhere to go, they were given a pen-
alty when Mission Bay let them go through to avoid a collision.
The umpires then gave them a second penalty, for gaining a sig-
nificant advantage from their foul – a standard and common call
in match racing. The boys took their first penalty, and immedi-
ately began the long process of clawing their way back. By the
weather mark, they overtook the Mission Bay team, but still had a
penalty to take. On the sec-
ond upwind leg, they cov-
ered their opponent hard
working diligently to create
as big a lead as possible for
them to take their penalty.
By the time they reached the
finish, they had created a
lead of roughly 8 boat
lengths, and were able to
spin their penalty turn in
time to cross the finish line
ahead. The result was a 2nd
place finish in the regatta,
and a birth in the Prince of Wales Final!
So, once again we have three King Harbor teams sailing in the
Prince of Wales Final. Brian Angel and the King Harbor Match
Racing team received an entry earlier in the year, based on their
2nd place finish in last year’s Final. Congratulations to all the King
Harbor sailors and to King Harbor Yacht Club for supporting
them.
It is also important that we recognize all of the volunteers that
helped make this regatta possible, of which there are too many to
name. Most importantly, thank you to all of the Martin 242 do-
nors for the event: the KHYF, Grant Stephanoff, Len Abbeduto,
Jim Durden, Mark Sands, Jason Artoff, and Denise & Mike
George. Brian Angel
FISHING FLEET’SBEACHPARTY

LET’S GO FISHING FOUNDATION
On May 18, the Let's Go Fishing Foundation conducted one
of our most rewarding trips I believe we have ever accomplished.
On Friday of that weekend, 30 kids from all over Southern Cali-
fornia met a few of us at the Yacht Club, along with a few parents.
All these
kids have
parents who
have either
lost their
lives serving
in Iraq or
are still over
there fight-
ing. We
escorted the
group that
m o r n i n g
down to the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach, where all the
kids had a blast!! Then, with Keith Williams help, and a good
buddy of mine, Robert Oliphant, we drove back to Redondo
beach and checked in the whole entourage at Hotel Hermosa-
wonderful people there, gave LGFF a great deal on hotel rooms!!
Friday evening, we treated the whole bunch to a great dinner at
the Club- Dave, they loved the menu!! Introduced everyone at the
general meeting that night, along with a special guest- we had a
General Major from the Air Force stop by and extend their grati-
tude to LGFF was very special.
Saturday Morning, the Redondo Special picked us all up at 6:30
AM, and had a wonderful morning fishing out on Santa Monica
Bay; then back to the Club for a great barbecue, trophies, and
some special gifts- one of my customers donated FIVE Tony Hawk

end, the
ones we
felt showed the most respect towards others all around- the kids
were ecstatic!! Best part of the day came when Captain Jerry, on
the Ocean Racer, came down to the Club, picked everyone up, and
took us out for a wild ride on the ocean!! What a way to end the
day!! Special thanks go out from our heart to all who helped and
made this a very special weekend in Redondo for a very special
bunch of kids!!

NIGHT WATCH FLEET
On Saturday night, July 21, the highlight of the summer will
be the Night Watch’s Progressive Boat Party. This is the third year
that Third Officer Dyan Bevan will organize this cool event. The
theme is “Surf City, USA.” She is still looking for boats to partici-
pate, and will need volunteers to help decorate and donate food.
Please call Dyan to help and make a reservation.
Tickets for the August 5 Hollywood Bowl event, South Pacific,
will be sent by the middle of July. You’ll also get directions to
Wilson Park and other details about this event. Any questions,
call Wendy Doeh.
Skipper Norie Martin continues to mystify us with “what peo-
ple don’t know about me” reveals at the start of every meeting. By
reading cards we all wrote about ourselves at the beginning of the
year, she is able to make us all be curious. Did you know Bev
Godwin taught students only four years younger than herself
when she first got out of college? Did you know that Amy Henley
thought she was adopted when she was a little girl (she wasn’t)?
Then there’s the NWF member who decorated store windows
with her designs when she was a teen-ager. That’s Martha Diaz,
and she still has a strong artistic ability. This scribe’s personal
favorite was the fact that Kathy Smith can play the accordion,
and still does it occasionally.
At the June meeting, more stories came up that no one could
guess. Who was the girl who got permission from her parents to
go to Fashion School in Lucerne, Switzerland? She turned her
back on fashion when she returned and specialized in fi-
nance. She is Lynn Vavrek, our organized and enthusiastic treas-
urer. Who had a business that designed and assembled the fare-
well basket for Johnny Carson when he retired? It cost $12,000
and required five men to deliver. It’s Patti Nash, whose gourmet-
bydesign.com continues to make gift baskets for everyone and
celebrities call her in person. Most recently, Oprah Winfrey has
been a frequent client, and always makes her order personally.
Who was the Otologist who went to Dean Martin's home to fit
him with hearing aides? He wouldn’t wear them, due to vanity, but
another client, Ernest Borgnine, came to her office to be fitted,
and faithfully wore his hearing aides. This is Carol Langton, wife of
the Rear Commodore.
The fact that Kristy McCartney collects antique dolls, and has
over 100, and that Linda Wagner Johns worked as a limousine
driver when she first came to town concluded the June re-
veals. Come and join the Night Watch to meet very interesting
people and have a good time! Wendy Doeh
THE HOPES’ GRAND ADVENTURE
Well, we thought we would write something to let everyone
know how our new adventure is going. You all know that we have
been preparing ourselves for the big move
to the Great Northwest. It has been
about a year in the process. Figuring out
what we needed to do to move our entire
lives to a new and unfamiliar land. The
last few weeks in Southern California
were a blur. Not only were we closing out
the things at our jobs, but we were also
tidying up loose ends at the house. We
didn’t let that get in the way of spending
as much time with friends and family as
we could. We had some great times that
we will always remember. Once the mov-
ers got everything packed and loaded into the truck, actually a
second truck was needed to get everything, we proceeded to clean
the house and get it ready for the renters. With no furniture in
the house it was fairly easy to clean. We spent the days cleaning
and patching the walls and doing some touchup painting. All we
had was a borrowed air mattress, a new sleeping bag, the turtle, a
couple of freaked out cats, and some boxes for the things we
needed for living in the temporary quarters. On the day of our
departure we finished loading the van and the trailer with what
was left, gave the cats some drugs said good by to Jerry Langton,
who came by to see us off, and our neighbor Mike. And headed
north.
Once on the road it became very clear that it was for real. The
drive north to Stockton was uneventful. The middle part of the
state sure is flat and not very pretty. Got to Stockton in the late
afternoon, got the cats in the room, and went out for margaritas.
They sure were good but not as good as Chris’s. The next morn-
ing was a quick breakfast then off to Medford, Oregon. That part
of the drive was better as far as the scenery. The cats were drugged
again for this part of the journey it really did help, they weren’t
happy but they sure were relaxed. Oregon is really green and beau-
tiful. After getting the cats in the room, we went out to find a
meal and a drink. The next day we traveled through Oregon and
stopped in Portland for the night. Again,
yep you guessed it, cats in the room then
food and drinks. We really don’t want to
get out of practice. The final run into
Seattle was a relatively short one, in about
3 hours we made it to the hotel where we
are living for the 6 to 8 weeks until we
find a house. That night the hotel was
having a BBQ with FREE FOOD and
FREE DRINKS. The next day we
unloaded the trailer and started to get
settled in. We have been doing a lot of
exploring and putting the miles on the car
just checking out the area. We both started our new jobs on the
following Monday. We are enjoying our jobs and learning the
area. Kokomo arrived on the following Wednesday to its new
home in Everett. Thanks to Jerry Martin for helping so much
with that. We spent the morning at the yard supervising the load-
ing of the boat on to the trailer. Over Memorial Day Weekend we
put Kokomo back together and got her ready for the water. The
following weekend we went out for the first time. What a beauti-
ful place to boat; we spent most of the afternoon just drifting
around. We are looking forward to our first trip with a destina-
tion. We are very actively looking for a house now so we can get
settled in and concentrate on enjoying the summer. It doesn’t get
dark up here until 9:30 or 10:00; that’s kind of hard to get use to
but we know we’ll manage. We really love to hear from you all
and really enjoy the phone calls and e-mails. We’ll keep sending
you updates as things progress. And don’t hesitate to drop us a
line too. Your friends, Burr & Francie Hope

CATALINA FLEET
The first evening sail by the Catalina Fleet went very success-
fully, and everyone came back for the potluck with a big appetite.
The Falks on Kaholo had the Kings, all 2-1/2 of
them. Emerson has become a good sailor at four months. Hal
Davidson was on Kaholo, too. The Reinhardts on Sandpiper had
Art & Elaine Angel, and Andrea & Megan Reilly. The Ashleys
on Rosebud had Skipper Steve Reilly with Becky, Timmy, and
Shannan Reilly. The Thompsons on Magic Carpet had Bob &
Betty Tatge (Bob was celebrating his birthday, 39 again) with
Wendy Doeh who took the wheel when she had a chance, and
got the thrill of her life. what fun! Allen Curtis took out his boat
with the help of Bea & Bud Cohen, Bernie Baron and Chuck
Zamites. Allen, when are you going to name your boat, and will
there be a party involved?
”Blazing Saddles” was the movie the Catalina Fleet chose out
of six westerns to be the show on October 6, at the Spaghetti
Western Dinner. Ines Davidson will be the chairman, with Becky
Ashley, Lisa Falk and Wendy Doeh as her committee. More will
be said at a future date, but remember to SAVE OCTOBER 6,
for this popular event sponsored by the Catalina Fleet for all of
the KHY members. Vice Commodore Janine Thompson, is the
Coordinator of the July 10 sail. E-mail her if you can take out
your boat, and how many passengers you can host. Also e-mail her
if you want to go out. The third summer sail will be on August
14. Try to take time to go sailing on such beautiful after-
noons. Summer is here for us to enjoy! Wendy Catalina
CRUISING FLEET
The Cruising Fleet did not have a meeting in May due to the
Memorial Day Weekend. However, many Cruising Fleet mem-
bers enjoyed KHYC’s facility at the Cove. In May, several mem-
bers also partook in a brunch at our Clubhouse and a day sail in
the bay. Participants included Greg & Lynn Vavrek on Serenity
and Dick & Jeanne Reinhardt on Sandpiper.
In June, the Cruising Fleet Skipper and his First Mate prac-
ticed anchoring with two hooks in Little Harbor amidst surfers,
campers, kayakers, and snorkelers. This cove, a few miles east of
Cat Harbor, has two beaches—one great for beaching dinghies
and going ashore and the other great for boogie boarders and
surfers. Little Harbor boasts one of Catalina’s best campsites and
the reef is great for snorkeling. In the summer, kayaks are also
available for rent. So if you want to get away from the ordinary at
the Isthmus and desire more privacy than Cat Harbor, this is the
place to go.
The Cruising Fleet is going to Isthmus Cove on August 10
through August 12, with a potluck at the A-Frame that Saturday.
The Channel Islands Cruise is scheduled for the week of Septem-
ber 9.
So get set for a summer of fun in the sun and on the water.
See you at the club or “26 Miles Across the Sea” in paradise.

SABOT FLEET Along with the Wednesday night races, two major races are in
the works for the Sabot Fleet. The annual Sabot Ironman Regatta
is set for Sunday, August 5 with the Skippers’ Meeting at Noon.
The Ironman is not for the faint of heart as it features a course
outside the harbor and around the permanent race marks. There
will be a chase boat for those who might go for a swim. The Fleet
Championships will take place on Wednesday, August 8 with an
earlier than normal start time of 6:00 p.m.. Fleet Champs will be
held in the outer basin and a potluck dinner will follow. As at the
Wednesday night races, boats are available to borrow and trophies
will be awarded to junior and “executive” classes. Nancy Doyle

CAL 20 FLEET
Now that we’re well into the racing season, we’ve had enough
results to conclude that the Cal 20 fleet
has enjoyed a resurgence of interest and
participation. Given that we are dealing
with 40 year old boats, a better statement
would be that we’re in the midst of yet
another resurgence in the cyclical nature
of our Club’s oldest one design fleet.
This year in the Twilight Series we’ve
had 17 different boats sail, and almost
every race has had at least a dozen at the
start line. Much of this can be attributed
to the masterful leadership of Fleet Cap-
tain Brad Knox (who replaced last year’s
Bozo, what’s-his-name), and the relent-
less encouragement and badgering from
Fleet Measurer and Fleet Race Coordinator Brian Lindquist.
Once a one design fleet reaches double digits consistently, a spon-
taneous combustion point in interest occurs, and old dusty boats
relegated to the dry yard, are hoisted into the water again, and
sailors in the handicap fleet longingly eye our close tactical sailing.
Our fleet recently hosted a Cal 20 crew seminar for KHYC
members and non-members who wanted to get in on the action.
Not surprisingly, a good number of new folks who have bought
boats and joined the fleet. If you would like to join the fun in a
great fleet, experience one design racing in a not too demanding
boat, and socialize with a fun bunch of guys and gals, please con-
tact us, and we’ll gladly have you!
This year’s Bud Gardiner Bowl, our two day regatta, was re-
cently held in wonderful weather. All the
boats competing were terrific, and the
starts and mark roundings were tightly
contested. But do you know what hap-
pens when you nail all the starts, sail
faster, point higher, and make fewer mis-
takes than everybody else? You win the
regatta with three bullets, a second and a
third. Such was the weekend for Brad &
Jenna Knox, who must have been mad
about my joke about their boat name,
Ob-Knox-ious, in a recent TELLTALE arti-
cle, and decided to punish the rest of the
fleet on the water. See if I make that
mistake again.
Brian Lindquist and Kurt Mayol, in Sorcerer’s Apprentice,
fought it out with Ray McVey & Son for second place, icing their
place on the last leg of the last race. Barry Hamilton and Pete
Wheelon wore party hats on their heads, and still managed to
place ahead of Jim Murrell. Jim, who has given up on starting an
Albin Express one design fleet at KHYC, did manage to wrestle
one victory from Ob-Knox-ious in a blistering fast run. Maybe he was
using Huckleberry’s 155% genoa for that race. Brew-Ha-Ha and Annie
finished atop of the “B Fleet,” if we actually had a “B Fleet.”

O’DAY AREA J RESULTS
KHYC recently hosted the Area J US Sailing
Single-Handed Elimination Regatta. We had 19 laser
entrants from 9 different Yacht Clubs, from Santa
Barbara to San Diego, competing in 5 flights in 8
knots of wind. Competition was tight. The 1st and
2nd; 3rd and 4th; 5th and 6th; and 7th and 8th
boats were all ties until the last race. Tied rankings
were determined by who beat who in the last race.
Congratulations to KHYC Junior member Ryan
Hoeven for placing 1st! Ryan will go on to compete
in the US Sailing Singlehanded Laser Champion-
ship (George O’Day Cup) in New Jersey later in July.
The winners are as follows:
1st: Ryan Hoeven (KHYC) 3 1 2 5 4
2nd: Adam Deermount (NHYC) 1 3 4 2 5
3rd: Charlie Buckingham (NHYC) 7 6 1 1 1

THE OTHER WAY REGATTA TURNED OUT
TO BE THE “WRONG” WAY REGATTA
We completed the fourth race in the six-race Spinnaker Se-
ries on Saturday, June 9. This race is designed to have the racers
start the first leg downwind instead of the normal weather leg. We
opted not to use “G” mark as the first mark, because of the busy
boat traffic including the outriggers. The remaining courses left
the fast boats rounding one way with the down wind boats bear-
ing down on them, not a good idea. I personally took a lot of heat
for the format of this race, but the racers should know that as the
PRO, my job is to run the race on the water. There is plenty of
time weeks before the race to make changes. We had bright sunny
skies with steady winds from 9-12 knots all day. There were a total
of 11 “A” boats and 4 “B” boats. The winners are as follows:
“A” 1st Place- ONO (Mark Folkman and Mike Galloway)
2nd Place - Tigger (Tom Marland and Fred Cottrell)
3rd Place - Nitro (John Messinger & Team Nitro)
4th Place - Blade (Mick Shlens)
“B” 1st Place- Proper Lady (Bob Cash)
2nd Place- Caliente (Team Caliente)
I want to thank the following Race Committee members for
their help: Scorer: s/c Dick Reinhardt; Sign-ups: Jeanne
Reinhardt and Vicki Porter; Race Committee: Tony Gudish
and Deborah Waters from the Cal 20 Fleet and Byron Porter;

HANDICAP RACING FLEET
The Thursday night Twilight series is almost halfway through.
This year has seen a resurgence of the Cal 20 fleet with 12 to 14
boats out every Thursday. See Cal 20 Co-Fleet captain Brian
Lindquist if you are interested in racing in the Cal 20’s. Fleet new-
comers Wes Houston and Sarah Curran in Half Fast have been
giving the veteran Cal 20 owners some stiff competition.
The Martin 242 fleet is a new start on Thursday nights and
adds a second one design fleet to the line up. One design fleets
(Cal 20, Martin 242) have all boats of the same model racing.
Some experts would tell you this is the most pure form of sailboat
racing where crew skill is of utmost importance. Congratulations
to Martin 242 owners Paul Zambriski and Grant Stephanoff for
winning the Martin 242 class at prestigious Cal Race Week.
The PHRF (Performance Handicap Racing Fleet) starts are
the A and B fleets. The PHRF fleet has boats of all types and sizes
racing against each other with handicaps assigned by a formula
that incorporates sail area, boat weigh and length among other
factors.
The A fleet has been very strong with 16 or 17 boats out every
week. The A fleet is comprised of the faster and usually bigger
boats in the 30 foot plus range. The sport or sprit boats are in this
class. Our B fleet is made up of boats in the 20 to 30 foot range
and have an active and competitive class.
All the classes have the need for many crew and could use
your help on Thursday nights. Come on down between 5:00 and
5:30 to find a ride. Jim Murrell, HRF Fleet captain

Monroeville, AL) for his

POWER BOAT FLEET
The annual Spring Cruise is over. I asked a number of people,
to report what happened during the Cata-
lina portion of the cruise and was met
with tight-lipped mumbles of “What hap-
pens in Catalina stays in Catalina.” I
asked others about the Newport Beach
and Long Beach legs and got the same. It
was not surprising, then, that at the post-
cruise BBQ party our skipper John
Tootle reminded everyone “What hap-
pens during Power Boat Fleet Cruises
remains...etc.” Strange, but as the steaks
cooked and the wine flowed rumors sur-
faced to a mixture of denials, then confes-
sions and, finally, unabashed laughter.
For starters, thanks to fire damage, the island lacked power
over the cove clean-up weekend. Businesses were pretty much
closed and tower damage prevented cell phone use. Our landing
party was warned that they could eat and drink ashore, but must
return to their boats for all toiletry purposes. This made for a
thriving caravan of dingy traffic throughout their stay. In spite of
all this, an incredible amount of work was accomplished. Jim
Sherk organized tasks, Teri Sherk raked relentlessly and Joan
McClellan marshaled the ranks through their assignments. Smitty
& Gentil Smith hosted cocktails on Saturday and Mack & Joan
McClellan on Sunday. Monday activities included a bocce ball
contest pitting men versus women. The men won, which
prompted some off color accusations against the men regarding
the superior quality of their (fill in the blank)s.
On the cruise to Avalon, the fleet played it’s own version of
“Balderdash” by radio during which we learned that Mac
McClellan won the annual Isthmus “chip” throwing contest in
1998. (I’m sure there is a message in here somewhere.)
By the time the fleet moved to Avalon, on Tuesday, the town
was welcoming everyone including the 3,000 plus room cruise
ships. That first night in Avalon a wonderful, mouth watering,
and no need for dinner, cocktail party was hosted by John & Judy
Ernst on Pretty Baby, which has an interesting, stern mounted
outboard motor that serves as a motorized blender.
On Wednesday, cocktails were hosted at the Country Club by
Curt & Alita Rethmeyer and John & Mary Tootle prior to an
elegant dinner. Four of the Island Company’s head staffers and
spouses joined the Power Boat Cruisers for the first normal eve-
ning they had had since the fire, including one special couple,
Brad and Elizabeth Wilson, who owned the only home on Cata-
lina destroyed by the fire. They gratefully accepted an invitation to
join our group at the country club for drinks and dinner and are
looking forward to visiting our Club. (As an important aside, the
Club Board has established a contribution fund for them. Individ-
ual donations are welcome.)
Jack Kovats told of the warm community response to the fire
fighters who saved so much property. Signs were everywhere say-
ing “Thank You Firefighters.” Their breakfast waitress said our
people could not have sausage with breakfast because 100 orders
of sausage were reserved for the firefighters. Fire personnel were
so generously fed they dubbed this the “20 lb.” fire because that
was how much weight they felt they had gained. As 150 fire fight-
ers left the harbor under arcs of water from fire boat cannons
every boat in the harbor saluted them with horns and whistles. It
was an emotional tribute to the heroes and heroines of the Cata-
lina fire.
Jim Elliot noted early on that fleet
leader John Tootle did not have a Club
burgee on his boat. John Ernst donated a
spare and Hal & Ines Davidson collected
donations from the fleet to purchase a
staff for the burgee. Willing hands, Jim
Elliot and Mac McClellan, standing in an
unsteady dinghy, affixed staff and burgee
to the leaders vessel. Now, lacking only a
tri-corner hat, a flowing black cloak and
with one foot on the foredeck, John re-
sumed command of the armada.
On Thursday the fleet sailed to New-
port Beach where the Whildens and the
Sherks hosted an impromptu party. After dinner, Jim Elliot initi-
ated an impulsive party, without forewarning to first mate, Jeanne
Elliot, aboard Independence. No doubt they discussed this later.
The Friday Scavenger Hunt, organized by Gail Barrette and
John Tootle, was won by John Mifflin, Betty Troeger and He-
laine Whilden. Contestants protested the win as all poker chips,
which was one of the scarce items on the hunt list, mysteriously
disappeared just before the Mifflin/Troeger/Whilden team
showed up with one chip and smiles. Investigation continues.
Dinner at the Bahia Corinthian Yacht Club that evening be-
came challenging when it was discovered that no one had made
reservations with BCYC. Dyan Beven did a great job of collecting
money and food orders, but assumed John Tootle had made res-
ervations whereas John assumed Dyan knew that he doesn’t do
reservations. It’s a lawyer thing. After some scrambling the fleet
dispersed to several dinner venues in the area. Dave & Gail Bar-
rette, Jim & Teri Sherk, and Hal & Ines Davidson got a special
thank you for treating us all to great hors d’oeuvres.
Departure from Newport Beach was marked by two events
involving the good ship Take Time which gave reason for chuckles
and speculation. The yacht was well underway when skipper Dick
Whilden became aware that first mate Helaine was not aboard
(Hal Davidson later expressed congratulations to Dick for having
the nerve to do what Hal has threatened to do to Ines for years.).
Of course, they returned to the dock for Helaine and cast off
again to discover, a short distance off shore, that guest Dick Far-
rell was not well. A quick return to shore put Dick into the hands
of medical experts who concluded (are you ready for this?) Dick
had not been drinking enough water! This is news??? Anyway, he
quickly recovered and the party departed for Long Beach.
Arrival at Long Beach was colorfully enhanced by a severe case
of red tide in the harbor and Gay Parade Pride Day activities
ashore. Dinner at Shoreline Yacht Club culminated cruise activi-
ties. The fleet departed Sunday morning for home port and the
evening BBQ which ended with our thanks to Barry Hamilton
for providing all the eats, a special thanks to Barry’s first mate,
Anne, for spending her day cooking the small potatoes, and all
the other volunteers who made the cruise memorable, and, fi-
nally, a standing ovation for fleet captain John and Mary Tootle.
Just two days later, Robin & Valerie McKay celebrated their
53rd wedding anniversary by winning the 50/50 raffle which, by
divine intervention or amazing coincidence, amounted to $53.
Talk about marriages made in heaven. Joe Manfredo

COVE FLEET The Cove Fleet is moving now to purchase and install many improvements at Little
Fisherman’s Cove. Look for new bamboo surrounds at the new shower, around the heads,
around the BBQ, around a new galley sink and new Island bar, and around the bunker
storage. Signs will be bought and posted at our property perimeter. There are other excit-
ing improvements a little further down the road.
A group of 100 island enthusiasts enjoyed Cheeseburgers in Paradise at the cove Me-
morial Day weekend. Thanks to all the volunteers who flipped burgers, made margaritas,
entertained kids and adults and helped clean up. The weather couldn’t have been better, a
great time was had by all. We ended the day by thanking the Island Rangers who keep an
eye on our property, giving them our extra food. If you haven’t been to our little piece of
paradise at Little Fisherman’s Cove in Two Harbors lately, you are missing something spe-
cial. Lyla Knudson and Jim Sherk
