In last month’s Soundings, I mentioned the Club performed an audit to check compliance with Dock Rule D2; Conditions of Slip Rental/Dry Storage. Eighty- eight letters were sent to slip holders reminding them that providing the Club cop- ies of their boat’s current United States Coast Guard documentation or State reg- istration, a copy of their $500,000 liability insurance with SGYC listed as an Soundings Due Dates “additional insured”, proof that they owned their boat, and their bottom paint sur- vey are all required to slip their boat at SGYC. I’m happy to report back that, so June Issue 05/26 far, just about half of these slip holders have responded. I want to thank those July Issue 06/25 Members who responded so rapidly and submitted their missing documents. This August Issue 07/26 issue is not going away, and you saved this Commodore from having to write many less-friendly follow-up letters in the coming weeks. (Continued on page 8) Page 2 Vice Commodore Terry Van Winkle AMERICA’S SCHOONER CUP SUMMARY It has been a few weeks now, but this is the first chance I’ve had to broadcast the America’s Schooner Cup results and thank everyone involved in the regatta for the months of hard work leading up to the race itself and the events surrounding our month-long Schooner Cup celebration. Thanks to all the committee members and dozens and dozens of volunteers that come together to make the event work. It is truly a signature Silver Gate event. First the results. We had four classes including a unique twelve-foot schooner, Pacifier, originally built by our very own Paul Mitchell. Her red, white and blue sails really stood out on the bay as she easily completed her course, which was slightly altered to accommodate her smaller size. In Group A: Bill of Rights won with a corrected time of just under two hours for the 14-mile course. Maid of Kent was second and only five minutes behind the leader and the Californian another forty minutes back. They apparently took the long way around to show their paying passengers a bit more of the San Diego scenery. In Group B: Shine On, Witchcraft and Lively put on a good race with only twelve minutes separating the three boats. Scrimshaw, the ACS winner a few years back, finished thirty minutes later. In Group C: We were privileged again this year, to have three schooners, Curlew, Dauntless and Rose of Sharon racing against each other again, reliving a race from Newport, R.I. to Bermuda in 1930 – 86 years ago! Also in Group C were Skookum III (another former ASC winner) and America from the Maritime Museum (as was the Cal- ifornian in Group B). Rose of Sharon defeated her old foe, Curlew, by a mere 48 seconds in corrected time to take honors in this Group. The America’s Schooner Cup trophy this year went to Rose of Sharon skippered by Brian Chamberlain, followed closely by Curlew and Robert Harrison, Jr.’s crew. Overall, it was a very competitive race with the top seven fin- ishers’ overall corrected time within 15 minutes of each other. And even though the day began with light winds that had the committee boat thinking about shortening the course, wind built in the afternoon so all boats were able to finish the course – a good day for everyone on the water. I mentioned thanks to all above, but it seems inadequate given the work and passion given by so many to this month-long event. Proceeds will go to the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society with a presentation at our Opening Day on May 21st. Plan to attend to honor this very worthy charity benefitting active-duty and retired military. Publicity exploded this year thanks to Paul Mitchell, Brad Brown, and others. We received a full page spread in the Union Tribune, articles in Latitude 38, The Log, The Penisula Beacon, interviews on our docks which aired on local TV news, publicity through the Maritime Museum that sold seats on the Californian and the San Salvador, and Bill of Rights, which also took passengers to help fund their educational efforts. Our fund raising efforts at SGYC were very successful starting with the Sunset Cruise in mid-March, followed by a Cheeseburger in Paradise Party which sold out (thank you, Gary Seiler) and our awards dinner following the race itself, which also sold out and which had the drawing for our major prize, the Star Clipper Cruise won by Nancie & Michael Lafferty. Overall, we raised $32,000 for NMCRS. We’ll take a few months off, but will be right back at it in October. Consider volunteering for this fun and reward- ing event. We need your talents and enthusiasm to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of America’s Schooner Cup in 2018!! Thank you Silvergaters. May 2017 Page 3 Rear Commodore George Woodley WHEELCHAIR REGATTA It's spring! The Schooner Cup is behind us and now it's time to start preparing for the Wheelchair Regatta. By the time this goes to print, the sign-up sheets will be in the hallway next to the office. All the Chair positions are filled and they are looking for volunteers. No matter what you are good at, there is a place for you on one of those lists, so please do your part and help out. If you haven't done it before, you're in for a great experience. Your help on the one day that many of the participants call their only day out, and others call their favorite day of the year, needs to be experienced. It really is one of the most rewarding things you can do. So don't delay, SIGN UP! And if you have a power boat that can carry a couple of wheelchairs, we have a sign -up for that as well. Even though we have boats from other clubs and marinas tak- ing passengers for an hour long spin around the bay, we just don't have enough. Consider bringing your boat and participating in this great event. Don't worry if you are short crew to give a guided tour as you travel around; Re- gatta Control will provide someone to accompany you. Just fill out your application form and they will take care of you. Silver Gate Anglers Jim Hallameyer It’s Tuesday, April 25th as I write this, and the weather report is calling for a small craft advisory offshore until at least 10:00 PM tonight. But, have no fear, we’re looking at some warm weather and smooth seas for the coming week. Improving conditions and recent reports of some Bluefin around the 43 Spot are making the anglers salivate. We’re all anticipating another great fishing season! In the meantime, the SGYC Anglers have some events for our angling Members to participate in as we tune up for those offshore runs. Mark your calendars for the following dates: May 6th Southwestern Yacht Club will hold its Annual Bottom Fishing Tournament. May 13th is our own Dock Fishing Tournament right here at SGYC. May 13th is also the date for the Marlin Club’s Spring Shootout. June 17th is the date for the Bay Fishing Challenge. June 17th is also the date for the Marlin Club’s Halibut Tournament. July 9th will be our next SGYC Angler’s Breakfast. Details for some of these events are posted on our SGYC Club bulletin board. Also, watch for email blasts from the Club office for sign up info. All SGYC Members are invited to join with the SGYC Anglers and participate in our events. WOO-HOO … or should that be Wahoo! May 2017 Page 4 Treasurer Mike Van Mouwerik I wanted to give you all a heads-up on how the new Bar and Galley minimum is being implemented. Beginning in April, we have moved from a $15 per month minimum to $150 per quarter. This was done to encourage use of the Bar and Galley to ensure we continue to have a quality and viable Bar and Galley service. We have actually already suffered a snafu with implementing this change. March was the last month for the $15 minimum and should have been calculated and included in the April billing.

Photo: Liam Marshall TABLE OF CONTENTS Bombers / Attack Fighters Multirole Helicopters Reconnaissance / Surveillance Trainers OV-101 Enterprise Concorde Aircraft Restoration Hangar Photo: Liam Marshall BOMBERS/ATTACK The basic mission of the aircraft carrier is to project the U.S. Navy’s military strength far beyond our shores. These warships are primarily deployed to deter aggression and protect American strategic interests. Should deterrence fail, the carrier’s bombers and attack aircraft engage in vital operations to support other forces. The collection includes the 1940-designed Grumman TBM Avenger of World War II. Also on display is the Douglas A-1 Skyraider, a true workhorse of the 1950s and ‘60s, as well as the Douglas A-4 Skyhawk and Grumman A-6 Intruder, stalwarts of the Vietnam War.

  • Strongest Selection of Maritime Art in Ten Years on Sale at Christie’S New York
    For Immediate Release November 14, 2008 Contact: Erin McAndrew 212.636.2680 [email protected] STRONGEST SELECTION OF MARITIME ART IN TEN YEARS ON SALE AT CHRISTIE’S NEW YORK New York – Christie’s New York is pleased to announce details of its December 3 auction of Maritime paintings. The sale boasts over 138 paintings and features exceptional works from 19th century American artists James Edward Buttersworth and Edward Moran, as well as a superb group of fourteen oils and watercolors by 20th century British artist Montague Dawson. Many of the paintings to be offered have never before appeared on the market. The December 3 auction is the first since Christie’s created a paintings-only category for Maritime Art and incorporated it into the same week as its Sporting Art and American Paintings sales in New York. A Maritime Objects Sale, including nautical antiques, scrimshaw, and ship models is slated for January 15, 2009. Images of yachts, battleships, clipper ships, whalers, and modern-day frigates are all featured in the upcoming auction. For devotees of historical maritime battles, a sale highlight is a grouping of master works by Montague Dawson, including American brig Argus engaging His Majesty’s sloop Pelican in British Waters, 14th August 1813 (detail view pictured on page 1 – left). Dawson skillfully captures the moment when the British and American ships drew aside one other in a full-on firefight, and mercilessly shredded each other’s sails with gunfire (estimate: $200,000-300,000). The Dawson grouping also includes seven watercolor paintings making a rare appearance at auction.

  • RACING SCHOONERS and AMERICA's CUP DREAMS. In
    RACING SCHOONERS AND AMERICA’S CUP DREAMS. In 1851 this schooner sailed from New York to partake in yacht racing at Cowes. She was aptly named the “America”. She was not made to feel particularly welcome in the Solent, partly because she was syndicate owned, unheard of in Britain where racing yachts were owned by one person, preferably Royal, titled or definitely a “gentleman”, and partly because Americans were viewed with some suspicion at the time, and not considered as gentlemen. Subsequently the “America” was barred from entering most of the races. She was, however allowed to race around the Island for the 100 guinea Queen’s Cup which she won, beating the entire fleet of the cream of British racing yachts into the bargain. Yacht racing rules were of a more casual nature in those days, and subsequently a tad ambiguous, so that the win did not go without a few comments about sportsmanship and a certain ill-feeling which set the tone for all subsequent races for this cup. Here is the cup she won, a rather brash, but valuable silver trophy by Garrards of London. This the syndicate took back to the New York Yacht Club, renamed it the “America’s Cup”, and by deed of gift offered it for international competition. Then nothing happened for the next nineteen years, partly due to civil war in the USA, and partly due to international indifference. Meanwhile in England a new face had burst upon the yachting scene in the late 1860s. This was James Lloyd Ashbury, the son of John Ashbury, a self- made man who had built up from a two man wheelwright shop the largest railway manufacturing business in the UK, producing rolling stock, iron bridges, turn-tables and other railway equipment in his factory at Openshaw in Manchester employing over two thousand men.

  • The Goddard Papers: the History of a Nineteenth-Century Shipbuilder and Merchant
    The Goddard Papers: The History of a Nineteenth-Century Shipbuilder and Merchant Frances Brennan On 30 December 1833, a young man, who had apprenticed at his father’s side, affixed his signature to a Partnership Agreement by which the firm of William Goddard and Son was founded. With an investment of only five thousand dollars, William Warren Goddard stepped into the world of shipbuilding and mercantile trade in the Port of Boston. The elder Goddard brought to the partnership three extremely seaworthy vessels; namely, the ship AMERICA, the ship MOUNT VERNON, and the Brig CONGRESS. It was also part of the Agreement that he would supply additional cash, as required, and thereafter devote such time and attention to this new endeavor as he would find convenient. William W. Goddard agreed to apply his whole time and ability to the business of the firm.1 By this mutual agreement the career of one was diminishing, while that of the other had just begun. Within two years his father was dead, and William W. Goddard, who was then twenty-three years of age, became the sole owner of the firm. The success of most men in the maritime industry, in the years when sail dominated the seas, was either as builder, captain, or merchant. William W. Goddard had the brilliance of the builder, and the astuteness of the merchant, and went on to excel in both. His fame as a builder is best evidenced by recounting the essence of an article published on 15 April 1868 in The Boston Traveller, in which two of his ships, HARRIOT ERVING and CRUSADER, were included as the remarkable ships of the Port of Boston: Designed and built by W.W.Goddard .

  • E.J. Schoettle's "Sailing Craft"
    By G. W. ELDER and ERNEST RATSEY N all the varied interests of mankind today the trend is towards Internationalism. National boundaries, by virtue of transportation’s annihilating war against time, can no longer restrain industry, commerce, thought, and the long list of human activities, within their limits. Sports of all sorts are becoming more internationalized with every passing year, and in the realm of yachting, the Story of the Future is undoubtedly written in the Stars. The International Star Class, the largest organized class of one- design racing yachts in the world, has 34 organized fleets, more than 500 registered yachts, with an average increase of between 80 and 100 new boats each year, and is represented in both North and South America, in Europe, Asia, and Australia. Only in dark Africa is there no Star unit as yet. It is well said that “the sun never sets on the Stars.” Yachting can hold its head high in the world of sports, for the first international sportsmen were yachtsmen. The ancient Olympic Games were national, not international. The modern international Olympics have been a twentieth century development. Today tennis, golf, rowing, polo, cricket, and almost every other sport of every land, as well as the free-for-all-nations Olympics, can boast of some international feature. But when the America met and mastered the crack yachts of Merrie England on August 22, 1851, she was the pioneer of a new era, the first internationalist. When nations matched prowess in ages past, it was on the field of carnage or in naval battle.
