RELAX YOUR OWN WAY 1221 West Coast Highway, Newport Beach, CA 92663 • BalboaBayClub.com • 949.630.4120 We are very pleased to welcome you to the Newport Beach Wooden Boat Festival, a Balboa Yacht Club event. is Festival honors these wooden-boat works of art and salutes their owners who with great devotion, pride and love, maintain these boats in excellent condition so that we can share them with you today. What makes this event so unique is that every boat comes with a story. In some cases these boats are older than us and have lived either a dour or an incredible and abundant life traveling the world’s waterways and oceans with titans of industry or government on their decks. In some cases, a boat might hav e been given up as junk by one owner only to be seen and recreated as a vision of beauty, excitement and passion by another owner. In some cases, the boat has never le one family and is passed down by generations to love use and cherish. In all cases every wooden boat at this event demands meticulousness and hard work. at is what you will see today. But I recommend you go beyond what you see and ask the owner about the boat’s story, and you just might see her come to life. I’ve been involved with this Wooden Boat Festival for four years now. is year, along with Co-Chairman Patrick McCormack, I’m honored to have helped build this event on Ralph Rodheim’s vision to what has now become a three-day concours d’elegance all about wooden boats. Partnered with other Newport Harbor stakeholders and supported by the City of Newport Beach, plus generous sponsors and 120 tireless volunteers, this is now a true community event. is year I will pass on the baton that Ralph passed to me to the capable hands of Patrick McCormack. I am humbled by the experience and grateful for our community and your support. Enjoy the Festival!! David LaMontagne Chairman 1801 BAYSIDE DRIVE, CORONA DEL MAR, CA 92625 3 2017 NEWPORT BEACH WOODEN BOAT FESTIVAL Dear Festival Visitors, On behalf of our yacht club members, welcome to Balboa Yacht Club and our 4th Annual Wooden Boat Festival. Founded in 1922 as the Southland Sailing Club, then established as the Balboa Yacht Club (BYC) in 1926, BYC had its rst proper Clubhouse just across the way on Little Balboa Island. Today BYC is a thoroughly modern yacht club with a rich heritage: a community of 800 members and their families who love being on the water as racers, cruisers, anglers, rowers and paddlers. In short, we are a community of dedicated friends sharing a passion for excellence in yachting. Our annual Wooden Boat Festival is one of the many ways in which we express and celebrate that passion. e life of our Club comes from our members’ creativity and willingness to volunteer. ere is no better example of this than our member and friend, the late Ralph Rodheim. Ralph rst envisioned the Wooden Boat Festival as a Concours d’Elegance, showcasing the art and cra smanship of wooden boat building of a largely bygone era. We believe that in just four years, we achieved Ralph’s vision for the Festival as it has become one of our Club’s signature events and has formed yet another BYC tradition. We are so grateful for the support the Wooden Boat Festival receives from the City of Newport Beach, the community at large and our generous sponsors. Right from the start, the Festival was widely recognized for its signi cance in honoring the heritage of boating, timeless cra smanship, quality restoration and preservation. anks to our supporters, we can provide you the opportunity to be right here on Newport Harbor, enjoying the views and activities that this great harbor and event o er. Again, welcome to BYC and thank you for being a part of the Festival. We hope you enjoy the experience and maybe meet a new friend or two to share the lure of the sea and appreciate beautiful boats.

    maxon precision motors, inc. 125 Dever Drive Taunton, MA 02780 Phone: 508-677-0520 [email protected] www.maxongroup.us Media release, March 11, 2021 The America’s Cup World Series (ACWS) in December and Prada Cup in January-February were the first time that the AC75 class yachts had been sailed in competition anywhere, including by the competitors themselves. The boat’s capabilities were on full display demonstrating how hard each team has pushed the frontiers of technology, design, and innovation. Over the course of the ACWS, Emirates Team New Zealand was able to observe their competition including current challenger, Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli. Luna Rossa last won the challenger selection series back in 2000 on their first attempt at the America’s Cup. This was the last time Emirates Team New Zealand met the Italians. As history shows Italy has not yet won the cup itself. They look strong and were totally dominant in the Prada Cup Final maintaining quiet confidence, but they are up against a sailing team in Emirates Team New Zealand who are knowledgeable, skilled, and very fast. Emirates Team New Zealand will have collected a great deal of data from Luna Rossa’s racing to date, with which to compare their performance and gain valuable insight into their opponents’ tactics and strategy. The Kiwis approach to the America’s Cup campaign holds a firm focus on innovation. Back in 2017/2018 when the design process began for the new current class of AC75 yachts, the entire concept was proven only through use of a simulator without any prototypes.

INTRODUCTION: "THE OLDEST CONTINUOUS TROPHY IN SPORTS" 2 One-hundred and thirty-seven ounces of solid silver, standing over two feet tall, this "One Hundred Guinea Cup" created under the authorization of Queen Victoria in 1848 is physically what is at stake at every America's Cup regatta.3 However, it is the dignity, honor, and national pride that attach to the victor of this cherished objet d'art that have been the desire of the yacht racing community since its creation. 4 Unfortunately, this desire often turns to envy and has driven some to abandon concepts of sportsmanship and operate by "greed, commercialism and zealotry."5 When these prin- ciples clash "the outcome of the case [will be] dictated by elemental legal principles."6 1.

    Navy Force Structure and Shipbuilding Plans: Background and Issues for Congress

    Navy Force Structure and Shipbuilding Plans: Background and Issues for Congress September 16, 2021 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov RL32665 Navy Force Structure and Shipbuilding Plans: Background and Issues for Congress Summary The current and planned size and composition of the Navy, the annual rate of Navy ship procurement, the prospective affordability of the Navy’s shipbuilding plans, and the capacity of the U.S. shipbuilding industry to execute the Navy’s shipbuilding plans have been oversight matters for the congressional defense committees for many years. In December 2016, the Navy released a force-structure goal that calls for achieving and maintaining a fleet of 355 ships of certain types and numbers. The 355-ship goal was made U.S. policy by Section 1025 of the FY2018 National Defense Authorization Act (H.R. 2810/P.L. 115- 91 of December 12, 2017). The Navy and the Department of Defense (DOD) have been working since 2019 to develop a successor for the 355-ship force-level goal. The new goal is expected to introduce a new, more distributed fleet architecture featuring a smaller proportion of larger ships, a larger proportion of smaller ships, and a new third tier of large unmanned vehicles (UVs). On June 17, 2021, the Navy released a long-range Navy shipbuilding document that presents the Biden Administration’s emerging successor to the 355-ship force-level goal. The document calls for a Navy with a more distributed fleet architecture, including 321 to 372 manned ships and 77 to 140 large UVs. A September 2021 Congressional Budget Office (CBO) report estimates that the fleet envisioned in the document would cost an average of between $25.3 billion and $32.7 billion per year in constant FY2021 dollars to procure.

    Boats Built at Toledo, Ohio Including Monroe, Michigan A Comprehensive Listing of the Vessels Built from Schooners to Steamers from 1810 to the Present Written and Compiled by: Matthew J. Weisman and Paula Shorf National Museum of the Great Lakes 1701 Front Street, Toledo, Ohio 43605 Welcome, The Great Lakes are not only the most important natural resource in the world, they represent thousands of years of history. The lakes have dramatically impacted the social, economic and political history of the North American continent. The National Museum of the Great Lakes tells the incredible story of our Great Lakes through over 300 genuine artifacts, a number of powerful audiovisual displays and 40 hands-on interactive exhibits including the Col. James M. Schoonmaker Museum Ship. The tales told here span hundreds of years, from the fur traders in the 1600s to the Underground Railroad operators in the 1800s, the rum runners in the 1900s, to the sailors on the thousand-footers sailing today. The theme of the Great Lakes as a Powerful Force runs through all of these stories and will create a lifelong interest in all who visit from 5 – 95 years old. Toledo and the surrounding area are full of early American History and great places to visit. The Battle of Fallen Timbers, the War of 1812, Fort Meigs and the early shipbuilding cities of Perrysburg and Maumee promise to please those who have an interest in local history. A visit to the world-class Toledo Art Museum, the fine dining along the river, with brew pubs and the world famous Tony Packo’s restaurant, will make for a great visit.

    Sparkman & Stephens: 75 years of Naval Architecture The following piece is based on an article written by Hervé Eliès in 2004 to celebrate the 75th Anniversary of S&S. We remember this on the occasion of S&S’s 85th anniversary. Hervé Elies joined the association in its early days after a chance meeting with founder member Terry Sprake in La Rochelle in 1993. He raced under RORC rules throughout the 60's and 70's and continued with his 1962 S&S Palynodie II which he acquired just before meeting Terry. His last trip was to Cowes in 2007.
