2 Inter-Lake Yachting Association 2016 From the Commodore

This year we celebrate the 123rd Annual Sail Regatta, the 41st Power Boat Regatta, the 61st Junior Sail Regatta and I-LYA’s 131st birthday! This is an exciting year for Lady Sharon and me as well as the rest of Team 2016. Every year, the Commodore wants to leave the organization just a little better than the last and we are no exception to that rule. Team 2016 has been working hard all through the winter to find ways to deliver an improved program regardless of sail or power and I believe that our folks have done just that. I am amazed at just how many people it takes to prepare and deliver the events that I-LYA will host this year. The time, dedication, energy and effort that it takes to prepare and plan our meetings and regattas is huge, and without the support of our volunteers that sit on the various committees, this simply could not be done. I would like to extend a special note of thanks to Senior Power Chair and Rear Commodore Mike Powers, Senior Sail Chair Jim Miller, Junior Power Chair Bob Lang, and Junior Sail Chair Dave Chapman for heading up our regattas for 2016. There is very little doubt that these events will be successful as a result of their efforts and that of their volunteers. Another incredibly important group are the businesses that support I-LYA in terms of sponsorship, advertising and in-kind contributions. As you read through the 2016 yearbook, please take note of the goods and services these Chris Amlin folks provide and if at all possible, utilize their companies. Without them, 2016 I-LYA Commodore our regattas would be neither financially viable nor affordable. For the 2016 season, The Yachtsmen’s Fund has again stepped up to support our Junior Sail and Junior Power programs. The dollar-per-member contributions that the Power and Sail Clubs make to the Yachtsmen’s Fund allow it to continue to offer the level of financial support that the Junior programs need to sur- vive. If your Club wishes to become a dollar-per-member contributor, please I-LYA contact any of the Fund trustees. Contact information can be found within Event Dates the 2016 yearbook. To all those folks that support the Inter-Lake Yachting Association… Thank you ! 2016 In closing, I would be remiss if I didn’t recognize the Village of Put-in-Bay, April 1–2 Spring Meeting Put-in-Bay Yacht Club and the Put-in-Bay Chamber of Commerce. Together, July 17–21 Junior Bay Week they truly are the best example of partnership between local business, local Aug 3–4 Deepwater Races government, private groups and associations such as ours. The spirit of co- operation has been stellar this year and with their continued support, the Aug 4–7 Sail Regatta future of our Regattas at the Bay looks bright. By combining our needs, we Aug. 10–14 Junior & Senior deliver a destination for families both young and old, activities and competi- Powerboat Regattas tions for our on-the-water community, and more importantly a learning cen- Dec. 2–3 Fall Meeting at the ter for our junior athletes where sportsmanship, camaraderie, education, and Holiday Inn French safe boat handling are at the forefront. It is an honor to represent Inter-Lake Quarter, Perrysburg Yachting Association in 2016 and Lady Sharon and I commit to doing all in our power to ensure that the I-LYA legacy continues for years to come. Sincerely,

2016 I-LYA Commodore Chris Amlin

4 Inter-Lake Yachting Association 2016 Meet the Commodore

Our 2016 Commodore Chris Amlin was born in St. Thomas, Ontario, Canada. His family moved from there to Vancouver Island, British Columbia where his father, Bill, worked in the lumber mill. Eventually the family moved back to Amherstburg, Ontario where Chris attended grade school and later, General Amherst High School. He attended St. Clair College in Windsor, Ontario; Georgian College at the Owen Sound Campus for Ontario Land Surveying; and Ryerson University for engineering. After working in surveying, construction, and owning his own business, Chris is currently working as a Senior Project Director out of Vancouver, British Columbia for the Ledcor Group. His job requires him to travel extensively and, at times, he seems to spend more time in airports and in the air than anywhere else ! Chris has a daughter, Alysha (Dave), from his previous marriage and she and her husband are expecting their first child. Sharon has a son, Jason (Emily), from her first marriage. Jason and Emily are proud parents of a son, Preston Michael French, who was born on October 17, 2015, making Chris and Sharon first-time grandparents. Chris and Sharon are also very fond of their two dogs Angel and Molly. Chris’ early years of boating involved a 16' fishing boat, a 28' Rinker, a 34' Wellcraft, and finally, the 420 Sea Ray, called Insta Gator III, The Finale! It has been suggested that Insta Gator III, The Finale?? might be more appropri- ate but Sharon is standing firm to this boat definitely being The Finale. Chris is also the proud owner of a 21' centre console, Knot-A-Gator, and Sharon captains the 18' Four Winns, Baby Gator. Travels with the boats have brought this couple to Manitoulin Island, Mackinac Island, Georgian Bay, Lake Huron, Lake St. Clair, Lake Erie and all of the rivers in between, many times. Lady Sharon, Dave, Alysha, and Besides boating, Chris has dabbled in the music industry playing electric Commodore Chris and acoustic guitars in local bands and is passionate about fishing. Chris may have more rods and lures than Sharon has shoes! Sharon retired from her City of Windsor municipal government position in February 2012. Her main hobby has been photography with many hours spent in editing images, toying with her DSLR and she has recently taken up wood carving. In 2008 she was Sun Parlour Boat Club’s Regalia Officer before going thru the flags until she became Commodore in 2011. Chris served as Rear Commodore of Sun Parlour Boat Club in both 2003 and 2012; Vice Commodore in 2004 and 2013 and Commodore in 2005. He has been a Trustee for I-LYA and is the Chairperson of the I-LYA Memorial Restoration Committee which gave him the opportunity to meet a lot of new and generous people. Their first time at an I-LYA regatta was in 2005 where they Jason, Emily, and Preston French won flags for the Docking Contest and Flying Mile. At the encourage- ment of Commodore Henry Webber, Chris considered going through the chairs of I-LYA, however, his actual journey through I-LYA began in 2011 as a Fleet Captain for Commodore Fred Schroeder with a repeat for Commodores Mike Morton and Kris Miller. In 2014 he was elected as Rear Commodore and during August of the same year he held the position of Power Boat Regatta Chair. He was also named Mid-America Boating Skipper of the Year for 2014. During Junior Bay Week 2015, Knot A Gator was the photography boat for Nate Parsons as he captured images of the Juniors competing on their courses. Chris continues to live and breathe I-LYA and hopes to carry on the yearly tradition of participating in Bay Days. Commodore Chris Amlin and Lady Sharon

Inter-Lake Yachting Association 2016 5 6 Inter-Lake Yachting Association 2016 Sun Parlour Boat Club

Sun Parlour Boat Club was organized in the late 1960s by a small group of local folks with a common interest in racing single-driver flat-bottomed boats known as Seafleas. Despite the fact that the Club has active charter members today, the exact date of the Club’s beginning is still uncertain. The earliest recorded meeting of the SPBC membership took place in March of 1968. One of the first events organized was an outboard racing event held in September of 1969. These races continued through 1973 and were governed by and under, the auspices of the Canadian Boating Federation. The affiliation with CBF allowed winning drivers to accumulate points for annual championships throughout Ontario and Quebec. The races were held on the Detroit River, on the South side of Peche Island, and the Club used Anchor-In Harbour as its unofficial home port. Over the next few years, membership continued to grow and the overall enthusiasm for racing began to decrease. The Club’s man- date was changed to focus on the social aspects of boating. These social functions soon involved other area boat clubs on both sides of the border and SPBC became widely known. Over the years the membership expanded and diversi- fied and was largely a travelling Club hosting events throughout Lakes Erie, St. Clair, and Huron. With activities drawing larger crowds, the Club moved to a more permanent home port at Park Haven Marina with the encourage- ment of our 1985/1986 Commodore and marina operator Bob Walker. In 2009 SPBC purchased a prefabricated building and moved it to our current home at Holiday Harbour Marina in LaSalle, Ontario. The hard work and dedication of many members went into making this building a true clubhouse. The International Order of the Blue Gavel was the first organization to recognize Sun Parlour Boat Club and in 1995, the Club was accepted as a full member of the Inter-Lake Yachting Association. In 2002 it was accepted into the Associated Yacht Clubs and is the only Canadian club to be a member of AYC as of today. SPBC proudly supports our 2016 I-LYA Commodore, Chris Amlin and Lady Sharon and we wish them all the best in 2016. Sun Parlour Boat Club

Inter-Lake Yachting Association 2016 13 Yachtsman of the Year

Bob Lang It is with the greatest of pleasure that the 2016 “Yachtsman of the Year Award” is presented to Bob Lang from the West River Yacht and Cruising Club. Bob has been an active Bay Week and I-LYA participant for many years and has championed the development of our Jr. Power Boat Program. As chairman for the Junior Power Boat Regatta, Bob exemplifies the traditions and mission statement of I-LYA through the education, promotion of safe boat handling and sportsmanship with our power boating youth. Year after year, under the watchful eye of Bob, the junior program continues to grow. In addition to working with the juniors, Bob also chairs many of the Power Regatta on- the-water events and has a unique way of drawing the crowd in, bringing smiles and laughter to those both young and old. As a result of Bob’s passion, commitment and dedication to the Inter- Lake Yachting Association, he has been named “Yachtsman of the Year.” Commodore Amlin presents the Yachtsman of the Year award to Bob Lang

Commodore’s Award

Com. John (Jack) Attkisson It is an honour to present the I-LYA Commodore’s Award to 2008 I-LYA Commodore Jack Attkisson. Since serving as our Commodore in 2008, Jack has remained incredibly active. He has been a fleet captain for various commodores, hauled equipment and materials back and forth from boat shows, and has volunteered his time and energy on many other I-LYA projects. Commodore Jack has been an invaluable friend to Lady Sharon and me. He cooked at two of our major fundraisers, opened his home to us for a place to stay and has also stepped up to be a fleet captain for me in 2016. We sincerely appreciate the love and support he has shown to Lady Sharon and me as well as to I-LYA… Congratulations Jack!!!

14 Inter-Lake Yachting Association 2016 Commodore’s Award

Dawn Schaumburger This year it was an honor to present the I-LYA Commodore’s award to the 2016 I-LYA Registrar Dawn Schaumburger. Dawn accepted the role of Registrar in 2015 and remained commit- ted through 2016 even while serving as the 2016 Commodore of Wyandotte Yacht Club. That’s dedication! But that wasn’t enough, she is also the 2016 AYC Vice Commodore’s Lady. During the time that Dawn has been registrar, she has been busy finding better and innovative ways to conduct our business. This includes on-line registration, assisting the Power Boat Committee with budgets and planning and helping us stay organized at the Spring and Fall meetings. It’s clear that Dawn has a love for boating in all its forms be it power or sail, seniors or juniors. Inter-Lake Yachting Association is very fortunate to have people with the level of commitment that Dawn brings to the table. Lady Sharon and I thank you so very much for your continued support, friendship and congratulate you on a job well done. Commodore Amlin presents the Commodore’s Award to WYC Commodore Dawn Schaumburger

Commodore’s Award

Detroit Beach Boat Club As the 2016 Commodore, I have the pleasure to recognize a few people who have shown great support, not only to Lady Sharon and me, but to the entire Inter-Lake Yachting Association. Without their effort, determination, and commitment to yachting, both power and sail, I am sure that my years from rear commodore to commodore would not have been as much fun nor as successful. We present the Commodore’s Award to a large group of people who have become a part of our extended family. Detroit Beach Boat Club has supported Lady Sharon and me all through our journey with I-LYA and Commodore Amlin presents the Commodore’s Award to Detroit Beach Boat Club we are eternally grateful for their support, friendship and dedication to Inter-Lake Yachting Association. Thank you Commodore Scott Sander and the entire DBBC family for all you have done!!

Inter-Lake Yachting Association 2016 15 16 Inter-Lake Yachting Association 2016 I-LYA Honorary Regatta Chairman

The I-LYA Honorary Regatta Chairman is awarded to an individual who has displayed his or her dedication over the years to I-LYA and our four regattas and who has consistently cooperated and helped with the goals of I-LYA and our affiliates on and off the Island. Mack McCann Bernard “Mack” McCann and Put-in-Bay are often words spoken in the same sentence. Growing up on the island, he was a boater since childhood with a special love for Interlakes and Lymans. As he began his career of rebuilding downtown Put-in-Bay in the late ’50s and early ’60s, he became more involved with the business of the Island and with it, became more involved as a media- tor between the island businesses and the administration of I-LYA. Mack appreciates the role I-LYA plays on the Island and the long standing history and traditions that come with it. He has been not only a supporter of I-LYA, but one of our very first sponsors helping launch our first media campaign in the late ’90s. Mack continues to support I-LYA and is currently serving as mayor of Put-in-Bay. Mack remembers… “When I was younger I loved to sail and was fortunate enough to have won at least one blue flag. It was most difficult running a business and trying to sail at the same time. Bay Week was financially the best week of the season for Island business people. It seemed as though I was always refereeing issues between Mack McCann I-LYA & the Island. I promised things to keep the Juniors on the island that I wasn’t sure I could deliver. Another exciting day was when the Fire Chief closed the Marina and Commodore Winkel had smoke coming out his ears.”

1978 marked the beginning of a tradition that has been adopted by each administration since. Commodore Norm Winkel determined that recognition should be given to the many volunteers who freely donate their time, vacations, talents, expertise, and even boats and equipment to assure the continued success of yacht racing competition and the I-LYA organization.

28 Inter-Lake Yachting Association 2016 Final Voyage

Don L. Emery As commodore in 1982, Don Emery named Helen Davis as his “I-LYA Woman of the Year” in “honor of her tireless work on behalf of I-LYA.” Ten years later, Don and Mary were awarded “Yachtsmen of the Year,” recognizing their contributions to the organization. Don met his future wife, Mary, on a blind date. Thus began the “Greyhound Romance,” with Don busing from Cleveland to East Liverpool for over a year. In a desperate move to lure Mary into permanent partnership, Don named his first vessel after her… Mary Gee. Apparently, it worked; Mary and Don were married in 1957, a marriage of almost 58 years. In June of 1969 their daughter Della Louise was born. Being a summer baby, she was practi- cally raised afloat. Don has three grandchildren: Yasmeene, Leena, and Khalid. Don’s passion with boating started at the age of 14 and continued for 67 years. His work for Edgewater, I-LYA, and the greater boating community is both vast and amazing. He and Mary joined Edgewater Yacht Club in 1958 and also became members of PIBYC in 1966. Don was commodore of Edgewater in 1973 and 1974 when the club was rebuilding after Hurricane Agnes and served as their delegate to I-LYA and as chief sail racing officer for over 30 years. He was a member of the US Power Squadron and was the first to teach a sailing course 1982 Commodore Don L. Emery for them. Later, as a member of the US Coast Guard Auxiliary, he served as a February 25, 1934 – June 20, 2015 past flotilla commander and education officer and he and Mary taught many boating courses. His contributions noted in the 1982 yearbook, apply both to Edgewater and I-LYA: “From expertly predicting the wind to building a race program, Don Emery has always given the best in whatever he has done… .Don has been a valued source of information and advice to the Officers and Trustees at Edgewater. In all Don’s endeavors there has been success not merely for himself but to the groups and people with whom he has worked.” In I-LYA, Don served many years as registrar for both Sail and Power, as race officer for Junior and Senior Sail, and as a certified judge. Clearly, Commodore Emery immersed himself in all aspects of yachting; still, he was particularly proud to be the I-LYA Commodore in 1982. In his own words from his Commodore’s Message, “The opportunity to serve as your Commodore is truly a ‘dream come true’ for me.” Don’s interest in old wood vessels and photography was just as complete and thorough as anything else he took on. He has owned many boats over the years, with the most recent being a 1969, 26 ft. Lyman and a 1951, 17 ft. Chris Craft Special Runabout. Over the years he has taken thousands of pictures and shared them on his website. He has also had numerous pictures published in national magazines. His pride in his vessels as well as pictures was obvi- ous. Don was also a member of Lyman Boat Owners Association, North Coast Ohio Antique & Classic Boat Society, and the Western Reserve Theater Organ Society. Besides boating and photography, he also enjoyed bicycle riding and playing piano, organ, violin, and clarinet. Despite being visually impaired since birth, Don was a true inspiration to everyone he came in contact with and he never let anything stand in his way. While Don is no longer here to set our lines, he lives on in the strong, vibrant race program he helped build at Edgewater and in I-LYA. So, every time we start a race or someone tacks a Don Emery photo above their workbench, Don is still inspiring and guiding us.

30 Inter-Lake Yachting Association 2016 Final Voyage

John Onacila, Jr. On January 27, 2016 the boating community lost a good friend and great advocate. Born on September 24, 1944 to John Onacila Sr. and Rose Onacila, John had a brother Robert and two sisters, Carol and Marilyn. John grew up in the Westpark neighborhood of Cleveland and, raised Catholic, attended St. Vincent de Paul grade school and graduated from St. Edward High School in 1962. He met his first wife Karen and was married to her for almost 50 years until her passing in 2014. John became an apprentice electrician shortly after high school. He was employed for 38 years working on construction projects most notably Cleveland Indians ballpark and Cleveland Browns stadium. He retired in 2002 and was a loyal member of IBEW Local 38 for fifty years. From his youth fishing off the banks of the Rocky River to the old pier at Euclid Beach, John had always been drawn to the water. His first boat was a 1971 Revel Craft that was given to him by his father-in-law, Oscar Johnson. Oscar, who was Commodore of Nugent’s Canal Yacht Club in 1974, introduced John to the boating lifestyle. After his sons Jay and Karl were out of school, they all went in together on their second boat, a 1989 23' Four Winns 2006 Commodore John Onacila Sundowner. John also had a 30' Sea Ray Weekender and his last boat was a Sept. 24, 1944 – Jan. 27, 2016 1989 Wellcraft St. Tropez, which his son Jay now owns. One of John’s proudest moments was being commodore of Beaver Creek Boat Club. He served as their commodore three times in 1993, 1994, and 2011. In 2001, he also became commander of the Greater Cleveland Boating Association. He was a safe boating instructor for the Vermilion Power Squadron and a member of South Shore Cruising Club. He became very active in I-LYA in the early 90s attending his first Powerboat Regatta and becoming BCBC’s delegate. He quickly moved up the chairs becoming Powerboat Chairman for the Y2K Regatta. Afterwards, he was elected to the I-LYA Board of Trustees and proudly became I-LYA Commodore in 2006. John served the boating community as an advocate protecting the rights for all boaters not only in Ohio but across the United States. He was active in political action for National Boating Federation, I-LYA, Greater Cleveland Boating Association, and Boating Association of Ohio. He was appointed to the Ohio Waterway Safety Council by Governor Ted Strickland and served there for 8 years. His other hobbies were home improvement, hunting, and sport shooting. Much of John’s success can be attributed to his passion for boating. Also, I think he would say he couldn’t have done it without his family’s support. He was a great husband, father, and grandfather. He is survived by his two sons, Jay (Pam Madden) and Karl (Jennifer), grandsons Jeremy and Keith, and second wife, JoAnn. He will truly be missed by all of his family and friends.

50 Inter-Lake Yachting Association 2016 2015 Chubb Junior National Sailing Championships

I-LYA’s top sailors travelled to Hoover Sailing Club in June and Sodus Bay, NY in mid-July for Area E Qualifiers in the hopes of earning a spot at US Sailing’s 2015 Chubb U.S. Junior Sailing Championships for the Sears Cup and the Bemis and Smythe Trophies. They were successful. All qualifying sailors were from I-LYA clubs and all who qualified made the trip to Wianno Yacht Club in Massachusetts in August. Edgewater Yacht Club’s Ian Moran and crew Abie Griggs arrived early at Sodus Bay to practice. They realized that a solid start to the regatta was important since only the top two boats of the 40 plus registered would advance. Four first place finishes on day one and no wind and no races on Sunday gave them the win with Alyson Turner and Jessica Lietz of Chautauqua finishing second. In the 27 boat laser Good things happen when two former radial fleet, I-LYA sailors took the top seven places with Ryan Squires (5 first top opti sailors join forces. Ian Moran and place finishes) and Scott Trask, both of Hoover Sailing Club, finishing first and Abie Griggs dominated the C420 class in second. Qualifiers for the Sears Cup this year were held in Thistles at Hoover 2015: First at Junior Bay, Traveler Series, Sailing Club. Competition in the seven boat fleet was very tight with the team and Area E Qualifiers and 9th overall at from Pymatuning edging out Bobby Sessions, Jack Harris, and Cameron both the Chubb Nationals and the C420 Douglas. Pymatuning sailors Ryan Milani and Connor and Tessa Ludwick North Americans. invited Berlin Yacht Club sailor Casey Ruppen to join them at the championships as a four man crew was needed to sail the Wianno Seniors. According to Scott Trask, Nantucket Sound sailing did not disappoint: “All the kids had a blast sailing on the ocean with great waves and wind. There was always a nice sea breeze that kicked in during the afternoon that would leave all sailors hiking for their lives.” Current, of course, was something new to most as was the switch to the fully battened Byte CIIs for the single-handed boat and the gaff-rigged, fixed keel Wianno Seniors for quadruple-handed. Competitors for the Bemis Trophy raced in C420s and both I-LYA teams finished top ten out of twenty with Chautauqua sailors Alyson Turner and Jessica Lietz finishing th7 and Ian Moran and Abie Griggs finishing 9th. Credit to Wianno Yacht Club, US Sailing, and Championship Chair Matt Dubois for putting on a well-run regatta. Special thanks to the Yachtsman’s Fund for providing financial support to the I-LYA sailors who qualified to represent Area E at the Chubb Nationals. Hoover Sailing Club continues to produce The sailors also appreciate the top single-handed sailors. Ryan Squires, support of their families and holding the cup, finished first at Junior clubs who made it possible for Bay, Area E Qualifiers, and in the them to travel and compete and Traveler Series.

60 Inter-Lake Yachting Association 2016 PHRF Boat of the Year

Team Flat Stanley is a race team in several different classes. The Melges 32 partnership of longtime friends Terry McSweeney and Trey Sheehan and their families started in 2007. The idea for the name Flat Stanley came about as a result of the kids doing the cartoon geog- raphy lesson The Flat Stanley Project popular in grade school curriculums across the country. The boat spends its time traveling on a trailer from city to city across the country. Flat Stanley fit the family sailing program that the boat would eventually become as the kids grew along with the program. Each year for I-LYA Bayweek we load the boat up with our kids and their friends from the junior programs around Lake Erie and the kids decide which adults accompany them on the Tartan Ten or the Melges 32.

Inter-Lake Yachting Association 2016 69 I-LYA Junior Power Regatta at Put-in-Bay

Junior Power Contests These Junior Regatta contests are designed to reinforce the safe boating practices and rules of the road learned in the classroom. The contests and seminars use a hands-on approach and provide the juniors with the confi- dence to operate motorized vessels. The vessels used at the regatta are inflatables donated by senior participants of the power regatta. For additional information about the Junior Power Program please visit the I-LYA web-site. General Knowledge and Seamanship Friday’s safe boating seminar provides each junior with a refresher course on safety requirements, rules of the road, understanding of buoys and their iden- tifying characteristics, and much more. Juniors will be asked to demonstrate knot tying, line throwing, and how to properly secure a vessel. A written exam, testing each junior on his or her general knowledge of the above concludes this contest. Charting and Course Plotting The safe boating seminar also covers charting and course plotting. Hands-on activities teach the juniors how to read charts, determine their position and plot a course. At the end of the seminar, each junior will be tested on their understanding of the above. Navigation Competition This is a shore-based contest that will require juniors to pair up and take a short walk or bike ride around the Island. They will be asked to take bearings, make observations and determine their position as they make their way around the Island. Bikes will be provided if necessary. Weather Contest Each junior will be asked to forecast the weather for a prescribed time and place. The forecast will include temperature, wind direction and velocity, baro- metric pressure, sky conditions, precipitation, and relative humidity. Prediction forms will be provided and must be submitted by a set deadline. A committee shall assemble at the prescribed place and time to observe and record the actual weather conditions and determine the winners of this contest. On-the-Water (Four contests using inflatables) “Course A” Boat Handling Contest “Course A” will demonstrate the steering and boat handling capabilities of each junior. The junior, accompanied by an assigned adult, will run a 3-leg course in both a clockwise and counter-clockwise direction with the objective of making both runs in the same amount of time. Speed is NOT the objective. “Course B” Compass Reading and Bearings Contest “Course B” will demonstrate a junior’s ability to read a compass and take bearings. The goal is to steer as carefully as possible between the marks for each of three designated courses set by the committee. At the end of each leg the junior is to record the compass heading steered. An assigned adult will crew on each vessel. Chicane This is a timed test of boat handling and low speed maneuvering. The junior will be timed and judged on his or her ability to successfully maneuver through a prescribed course at no-wake speed in both forward and reverse gears without creating a wake and without hitting the marks on the course.

70 Inter-Lake Yachting Association 2016 I-LYA Junior Power Regatta at Put-in-Bay

Docking This contest evaluates the junior’s boat handling and maneuvering skills as related to docking. The junior will be judged on his/her ability to properly maneuver, dock and secure his or her vessel within a predetermined dock space. Hitting the dock and/or high speed operations will result in loss of points. Social Competitions In addtion to the bragging rights earned by making a hole-in-one during Jr. Putt-Putt or Jr. East trouncing Jr. West (or vice-versa) in volleyball, Junior Power Regatta participants also enjoy the following contests: Geo-Quest Based on Geo-caching, Geo-Quest is a live treasure hunt utilizing compass and GPS skills. Junior teams will explore the island via adult-driven golf carts and locate hidden “treasures.” Cardboard Boat Race Who doesn’t love making stuff with duct tape? Juniors combine their engineering skills with construction and boating knowlege. Entrants must be 12–17, pre-assembly is allowed, each boat to be designed for 1 or 2 people. Awards given to place finishers and a “Spirit award” given to the team show- ing greatest Team Spirit and “The Titanic Award” to the boat that sinks in spectacular fashion. Fishing Derby The “Fishing Derby” is designed for all juniors participating in the regatta. Come one, come all and see who catches the largest, the most and the smallest fish. The committee will be available to bait your hooks and will supply the bait as well as snacks for the anglers. Bring your pole and your life jacket and arrive 15 minutes before start time so you will be ready to drop your hook. Prizes will be awarded immediately after the finish time. So don’t be late and good luck! Awards Ribbons: are given to each winner of the four On-the-Water contests, the Weather contest, and the land/shore based Navigation competition. 1st, 2d or 3d place ribbon awards are provided depending upon participation. Junior Skipper Award and Trophy: is given to the individual having the highest total combined score for all On-the-Water contests and the Weather contest. Scholarships: 1st, 2d & 3d place monetary scholarship awards are given to the eligible juniors with the highest overall score for all competitions. 1. Only those juniors who are members of a boat club affiliated with I-LYA will be eligible to receive scholarship awards. 2. Scholarships are based on final results from 2 days of competitions at the annual I-LYA Regatta. • General knowledge and seamanship • Charting and course plotting • Navigation competition • On-the-Water “Course A” Boat Handling “Course B” Compass Reading and Bearings Chicane: boat handling and low speed operations Docking contest: maneuvering and docking

Inter-Lake Yachting Association 2016 79 I-LYA Power Regatta at Put-in-Bay

Power Contests Commodore’s Trophy Competition for the Commodore’s Trophy is based upon a combination of seamanship, boat handling and overall knowledge of boating. Four events were selected by the committee, which are thought to provide all of these skills. To compete you must enter all four (4) of these contests. Entry forms are available at the Registrars desk and must be completed and on file in order to compete. A percentage has been given to each event to determine the overall winner of the Commodore’s Trophy. A flag and pin will be presented to the winner and your name placed on the Commodore’s Trophy which is kept in the Boaters’ Museum at Put-in-Bay. The trophy is awarded at the I-LYA Fall Banquet each year. This trophy will be awarded to an individual competing in the various events. The trophy will NOT be awarded to a competing team. This is an individual award NOT a team award. Commodore’s Trophy contests include: Predicted Log & Navigation (30%), Docking (25%), Chicane (25%) and Weather Forecasting (20%). Predicted Log The Predicted Log is a boat handling skill contest. Knowledge of your boat’s performance and navigational skills are a must. The predetermined course is designed around set “Control Points” (navigational aids, buoys, markers, landmarks) which must be passed or rounded, on either the port or starboard side (as indicated). Calculating your “Predicted Log” requires the participant to plot the course on his or her charts and to predict the time he or she will pass each control point in minutes and seconds. This year we are allowing the use of a GPS or Chart Plotter. Contestants may run at any chosen speed above 6 knots comfortable for the weather conditions, and make their predictions based on this speed. Participants should also know their compass devia- tion, because some points are too far away to be seen easily. The Predicted Log Committee will assign an impartial observer to accompany the run. Each contestant is ask to bring along at least one observer who will be assigned to another boat. A short training class will be held for the observers before the start of the contest. Each contestant must furnish two watches able to read in hours, minutes and seconds (preferably one digital and one stop watch).

However, if a team wishes to compete in this event, only one (1) flag will be awarded (to the team captain). Only the team captain will be eligible to compete for the Commodore’s Trophy.

84 Inter-Lake Yachting Association 2016 I-LYA Mid America Boating Skipper of the Year

Bruce Sattler As the son of a US Army Air Corps Officer, Bruce’s boating experience was limited and owning a boat was nothing more than a dream. But his dream of boat ownership lived on and at the age of 18, out on his own, that dream became a reality. The first few boats that Bruce had were small wooden vessels and he soon came to understand that while he was a good mechanic, carpentry was not his strong point. So it was with great excitement in 1980 that Bruce purchased his first fiberglass hardtop. He ran a 1971 18' IMP with a staggering 165 hp outboard around the lakes like a proud papa. Later, he began to consider that maybe that was a little too much horse power to run around with, considering he now had two young children on board and a wife looking for the brake pedal. This was when boating safety became a focal point for Bruce and one that he continues to promote today. By 2000, Bruce and his wife Pam, had owned some 17 boats. Currently the Sattlers can be seen cruising around in their beautiful 34' Sea Ray. Having the boat and a family that enjoyed the sport, it was only natural that he would join a local club. Being a member of South Shore Cruising Club introduced Bruce to the Greater Cleveland Boating Association and the Inter-Lake Bruce Sattler, SSCC Yachting Association. It didn’t take long for Bruce to see how great it was to be a member of an organized boat club with activities and trips his whole family would enjoy. During his career in boating, Bruce ran the chairs at SSCC and became commodore in 2008 and again in 2010. Bruce currently serves as an Mid America elected trustee of I-LYA until 2017 and was as an active member of the Power Boating Skipper of the Year Boat Committee prior to becoming our 2015 I-LYA Power Boat Chairman.
