4 March/April National Commodore - Neal Barkley

Spring is starting to show up here in the Midwest and a sailors thoughts are drawn to the upcoming sailing season. Whether a racer, a cruiser, or just a fair winds sailor, the warmer (and longer) days are a relief after the cold and mostly indoor activities of winter. It seems the east is a little ahead of us as they had their LNYC regatta with nine boats in attendance. Reports are that it was very breezy on Saturday and no races were held. As disappointing as that may have been, I am glad the racers considered the conditions and used appropriate judgment. Although I feel I can sail in many conditions, there is always that nagging suspicion that there is a weak shroud, spreader, halyard or chainplate just waiting to fail at the next big gust. Now is a good time to inspect your boat and be prepared. I had the pleasure of attending North Americas at Huntington Lake last July. If you have not made a NA’s, it is a great way to meet and compete against some of the best SJ sailors in the country. This year, the Midwest is having NA’s in October on Lake Hefner at the Oklahoma City Boat Club. OCBC will do a fine job as they have hosted many national regattas. Lake Hefner is almost circular, so no matter where the wind is from, a good course can always be set. It would be great to have representatives from the east and the west so it can truly be a NA’s. Also, I would like to see some of our Canadian SJ friends. With the favorable exchange rate, now would be a great time to visit and extend your sailing season a little. It looks like Western and Eastern Nationals are being held at the same time this year. I am torn as to which one to attend. The Eastern is much closer, so that will probably be my choice, but the Western folks really did a great job making the visitors feel welcome. By the way, I saw a note that the Seattle NOOD is tentatively planning for a San Juan fleet. Please keep us informed. If someone will lend me a boat, I may attend. A number of years ago at the NOOD in Houston some of the Midwest sailors entered their San Juan’s and had a great time. I want to take this opportunity to thank Jim Hubbard for his great San Juan website. I check it several times each week and have found it to be a great resource for information about our great boat. If anyone has questions or comments (concerns or criticisms), feel free to contact me at [email protected]. Or call me at 620-627-2132. Thanks, - Neal Barkley

March/April 5 West Vice-Commodore - Chris Popich

Hello All, I might as well get the introductions out of the way. My name is Chris Popich and I sail with Fleet 1 - Seattle. I’ve sailed since the early 1970s, actually owning a SJ21 from ’76 - ’77. From the early 80s until 1998 I took a sabbatical from sailing. Swim team, Little League, softball and soccer with my kids took up any spare time. Practices and tournaments replaced cruising and regattas. The bonus from all those activities is that my 3 kids were really learning all the attributes that make great crew, and now as young adults it’s payback time for all those hours on the field. I never have to single hand. I’ve been active with the fleet since 1998 when I rescued #40 from under an old fir tree nearby in Federal Way (south of Seattle). Old “Wooglin” cleaned up nicely and after hundreds of trips to the marine store for all those small brown $100.00 paper sacks, I had her set up just the way I wanted. During that process I’ve tried to help our small group of sailors try and build the fleet. You would think that would be an easy task in a sailing hotbed like Seattle, but not so. Since we are not affiliated with a yacht club, getting exposure for our boats is our biggest challenge. Most sailors in the Northwest have heard of the San Juan 21 but don’t know we are still active. In setting up our sailing schedule we’ve tried to showcase the boat where there are lots of potential owners crewing on those expensive racing machines. This year could be our best chance yet to show off when we participate in the Sailing World - Sperry Topsider Nood Regatta at Shilshole Bay. So far we have 8 boats committed, but we need more. Think about it. We’ll have more information once the NOR comes out. For now you can go to www.sailingworld.com/nood_regatta.jsp?location=2637. Check it out! In the 10 years I’ve been involved with fleet 1 there has been a gradual increase in participation. It has been slow, but it’s going in the right direction. What started out as 3-5 boats on a Saturday has now become 8-10. 1 or 2 races a day have become 3-5. We’ve actually had to book a larger room for our monthly meetings. With our spring and fall series, along with 5 Road Warrior regattas, we’ll most likely get in close to 70 starts. I think I might even convince some of our members to do the Western Nationals. They really should experience one before they get to host one again. It’s only at a Nationals that you can get a true feel for what SJ21 sailing is all about. Mark your calendars now and do try to attend one of this year’s big three. For now, as the weather starts to warm up, it’s time to start pulling the covers off our boats and getting them ready for the upcoming season. This has new meaning for me this spring since I have a new boat to put together. I didn’t plan 6 March/April on a new retrofit project but I just couldn’t pass it up. My wife, Chris, thinks I actually prefer tinkering with these boats to sailing them. Hey, it’s good therapy. Anyway, past Fleet 1 member, Shelley Dahlgren decided to put his boat up for sale recently. Turns out he purchased #986 from a young couple in West Seattle in 1977. They were selling it because they were starting a family and had just bought a new house. Priorities I guess. Shelley sailed the boat in the Tri-Cities before moving to Seattle in the late 80’s. He attended many Nationals and also served as the Chief Measurer. The boat has lived in his garage the past 10 years as health issues prevented Shelley from taking her out. Well, our Fleet 1 webmaster posted a couple pictures in the “For Sale” section of our website so I took a look. The curtains in the picture looked a lot like those Chris had made for a boat we owned in the 70s. Could it be? I had to give Shelley a call. All of those “First Boat” stories started to flash back, like the week of solid rain in the San Juan Islands, with Chris 6 months pregnant, or the time we got locked in the cabin at anchor. So I set up a time to go check the boat out with my oldest daughter. We met Shelley at the door and introduced ourselves. He asked Julia her age…31…I think he was starting to put the pieces together. He rolled up the garage door and there, 31 years later, sat my first ! Shelley said he had several people interested in the boat, but I think he knew he had already found the new owner. I now have 2 boats stacked up in the driveway. And one more “First Boat” story! Chris Popich SJ21 #40 / #986

I agree to sail according to the racing rules of sailing, the prescription of the International Sailing8 March/April Federation, the rules of the class, the Sailing Instructions and the notice of the race. I recognize and accept that personal safety and the safety of my yacht are my responsibility The 2008 San Juan 21 Western Nationals are to be held July 10 to 12 at Coos Bay (Oregon) Yacht Club

The 2008 regional competition for sailors/racers of SJ 21’s is being held once more at the charming and rustic facilities of the Coos Bay YC on Ten Mile Lake in Southwestern Oregon. The grounds of the club are situated on a bluff overlooking the spectacular inland lake which is located just inland from the Pacific Ocean and the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area, 12 miles north of the twin communities of Coos Bay and North Bend. The lake, with its many bays and inlets, is known for strong and shifting winds resulting from its coastal location and the numerous nearby hills that deflect the steady summer winds off the ocean. The sailing can be challenging.

The Yacht Club is hosting the event for the sixth time (most re- cently in 2004) and the membership has a tradition of hosting a very enjoyable event that is highlighted by the traditional salmon barbecue on the awards evening. The docks are close to the race course so sailors can not only sail to and from the docks, but go ashore between races and enjoy the camaraderie of fellow sailors and families.

Among the other features of the Regatta – - camping spots and RV sites on site for no charge - camping trailers for rent - nearby motels - SJ 21 charters available - nearby recreational opportunities ( world-class golf courses; coastal dunes; estuaries, bays, lakes, and rivers; etc) - casual setting with no daily travel necessary - all-inclusive price for registration

Early registration is encouraged. Additional information can be found on the club website of www.coosbayyachtclub.org. Ques- tions can be directed to Jon Richards, Regatta Chair ([email protected]; 541-756-1768); as well as Tom or Jean March/April 9 Kyle, Registration Chairs ([email protected]) Fleet 1 Spring Race #1 Well, it didn’t rain heavily on us today, just a couple of sprinkles as 8 boats took to the waters off Coulon Park. Winds were light and faded to nothing by the end of race #2. We got to test out the new start line pins and the automatic horn. The pins are much more visible than the old ones (these have fluorescent orange flags and sit higher off the water) and the auto horn worked well relieving me of much of the pressure of getting a good start. It’s also quite loud. I have to flip the switch to start it and start my stopwatch so I can’t plug my ears, I’ll need to start wearing hearing protec- tion during races but it’s well worth it. In Race #1, BoB got a great start and lead to the weather mark. I was thinking maybe he will step up and stop Wooglin. Unfortunately, Wooglin’s spinnaker put him ahead by the leeward mark and he settled for second. Mike Dukes aboard his new boat he has named “No Excuse” had crew for the day and was able to use his spinnaker to come from behind and ended up third. Scout took fourth in both the first and second races. In the second race, the winds died to nothing. Wooglin again took first with No Excuse second and Bob Third. Jim Miller aboard Jessie, a new boat to Fleet 1 this year, was late getting into the water so ended up getting a late start but due to Charmed Juan hitting the finish line pin and had to refinish ended up in seventh in the first race and sixth in the second. There must of been some sort of altercation in the first race between Limpet and Habagat as Habagat did a 720 turn. We only have a 360 penalty rule so either he fouled twice or he really did something bad and wanted to make amends. Limpet was 5th and Habagat 6th. Results are posted on the website at http:// www.sj21fleet1.org/?Racing:2008_Race_scoring

10 March/April LNYC SJ 21 Mid Winters Regatta 8, 9 March 2008

You know there probably will be some wind the next day when you are trailering your boat to Lake Norman Yacht Club in a blinding rain storm (better than snow!) Friday afternoon. The wind forecast for Saturday was for sustained winds of 30 mph with gusts up to 50. Therefore, most of the skippers did not put their masts up on Friday.

Saturday morning was bright sunshine and the winds were smack on. When the RC raised the AP, we decided to go to Plan B.

Zoe Dommel had determined the night before that the local brewery was having tours Sat. afternoon. So the crews of Scuba Kat (SK), Road Runner (RR) and White Knuckles (WK) headed for the brewery for the tour and subsequent sampling. Highlight of the tour was to drink fresh beer right out of the fermenta- tion tank before the beer goes through final filtering and is carbonated for bottling. Carolina Blonde Brewery claims to be the largest mircro brewery or the smallest major brewery in the Southeast.

Masts were raised and Juans splashed after returning from the tour.

Saturday eve the RC posted that the racing would start an hour earlier in an attempt to get three races in on Sunday. This was a double whammy to the crews because of the change to DST Sat. night.

However, all the boats made it to the start on time.

Winds were forecast at 5 mph out of the West. There was some apprehension that with the light wind over the cold water that an inversion would develop as the land heated up. However, the wind did remain on the water for three races, however, it was very shifty and constantly changing velocity.

In the first race, WK had a lead followed by SK at the leeward mark heading up the right side of the course and the rest of the fleet was a minute or two behind. When they rounded the wind suddenly shifted to west and now they are lifted above the finish line. SK and WK tacked to starboard in an attempt to head off RR. WK was able to cross just behind RR which immediately tacked on WK as they headed for the finish line on a header. RR and WK had forgotten about SK who was to leeward by a good length. When RR and WK next saw SK , she was taking the sterns of RR and WK and by the time RR and WK tacked it was almost too late with RR just edging out SK by less than 6” for the win. March/April 11 In the second race the RC set up a down wind finish. WK won the race with Raven edging out RR by a foot.

The third race was won by WK who caught a left hand shift at the pin end and never looked back in the dying wind.

The real warrior of the event is Charles Solvason (AKA “Curious Carlos”) who trailered Raven all the way from Alabama for the regatta.

The next regatta for Juaners in the immedi- ate area is the Tommy Whitesides Memorial Regatta at Lake Murray, SC on 19, 20 April. Please plan on coming to enjoy the brand new clubhouse at the Columbia Sailing Club.

Hypothermia needs immediate medical care 14 March/April What happens when sails age? by Bill Lynn, reprinted from JYRA Newsletter as seen in Optinews

“Since you’re a sailmaker, would you write an article about when juniors should buy new sails?” Well, you should buy new sails when your old ones don’t work right anymore, but since the only sure way to know is to lose a few races, let’s look at what sails are supposed to look like and what happens to them as they get older. Then you should be able to tell when yours are about to stop working right. As the sail gets older, the cloth breaks down, and the seams start to creep. Sails don’t like prolonged flapping, getting stuffed in bags, or having salt left on them. All of these things will shorten their lives. As sailcloth breaks down, it loses some of the resin that makes the cloth stiff and it begins to stretch in funny ways. This, combined with seam creep, will cause a few things to happen. First, the position of the draft (the proper curve of the sail when filled with wind) will change. Ideally, the sail’s deepest point should be 40-50% of the way back from the mast. 50% is okay in light air but any further back and you’ll suffer speed problems. At the same time the sail will get fuller. YOu can probably get away with this in light air, but you’ll suffer in a breeze. You won’t be able to flatten a fuller sail and depower it, like yo could a newer sail. Your boat will heel more than everyone else, your daggerboard will be less effective, and you’ll feel like you’re side-slipping and can’t point well. Finally, the leech of the sail (the trailing edge) will start to flap when you sail in a medium breeze. Also, you’ll see a gard spot develop at the front end of the batten pockets. The leech of the sail is probably the most critical part of the sail because it directly affects your pointing ability. You don’t want strange lumps and flapping on the leach anymore than you would want them on your hull. They create drag and drag is bad. A popular misconception is that old sails are better than brand new ones. Old sails are softer and, since they’re blown out, the draft has moved aft. These things are somewhat desirable in light air, but a sail that is optimized for light air will get killed in a breeze. While it is true that brand new sails usually get better after they have a few hours on them, don’t get fooled into thinking that they aren’t as good. Where I sail, on Long Island Sound, we see more than our fair share of light air, but it’s a mistake to bank on that, because it can blow hammers and tongs every so often. If your old sails are in reasonable shape, it may be a good idea to save them for days when you know you won’t get abreeze, rather than simply use them until they fall apart.
