H I want to start by saying thank you on behalf of Kerri and myself for a recent underway medical emergency. Let me start by saying Kerri is feeling better, and we have appreciated all of the well wishes. Without going into details, we just wanted to say thanks to great friends for realizing there was a problem and taking action to assist – you are all the best! Thanks also to all the members who offered assistance at the dock. It’s comforting to know the CYC family is so willing to help out. On a lighter note, congratulations to our newest slip assignments! Wet Slip assignments: AD04 30’ Trevor Clark AC09 35’ Fred Jay Are you familiar with the slip “Relinquishment” option in the bylaws? The first goals in the CYC bylaws are all about promoting both recreational and competitive boating, and I am a big proponent of seeing members getting out on the water. We have many members on waiting lists who would also love the opportunity to get a slip of their own to take advantage of Glorietta Bay and San Diego Harbor. I know – if you have a slip, we all had to put our time in on those waiting lists ready for our chance to get a slip. A few years back, the membership voted in a “Relinquishment” option to incentivize members who may not be find- ing the time or desire to get out on the bay as much as they used to or planned to. The “Relinquishment” option ena- bles a slip holder to give up their slip but still maintain a priority if they change their mind at a later date. Specifical- ly: Under the Slip Assignment Guidelines in the bylaws, a member who has held a slip for three years, may voluntarily relinquish his/her slip assignment and be placed at the bottom of the bet- ter slip list for that same size slip for a period of three years. Let’s face it, no one really wants to give up a slip they waited so long to get, so this rule offers some incentive and has been used pretty effectively over the past few years to keep the slip list moving. Take a look at the bylaws for more details about this option or give me a call. Did I mention it’s a seller’s market for boats right now? I hope my wife doesn’t read that last line! Be safe, mask up, and have a great August! All the best, Mike Mike Dowling CYC Port Captian Page 35 From the Crow’s Nest By General Manager Lou Milioti y now most of you have seen the new ramps on the turning basin of the club.

Two years has gone fast. My association with Sail America has given me a wonderful connection to the sailing industry. I am richer for my involvement. While I have worked in the industry for 35 years, the last six years with this organization have expanded my perspective, ce- mented collaboration with industry colleagues and helped me become a better leader for West Marine. I know we share common goals and challenges as we work to earn a living in different areas of the industry, but working together, we achieve so much more!

  • The International Flying Dutchman Class Book
    THE INTERNATIONAL FLYING DUTCHMAN CLASS BOOK www.sailfd.org 1 2 Preface and acknowledgements for the “FLYING DUTCHMAN CLASS BOOK” by Alberto Barenghi, IFDCO President The Class Book is a basic and elegant instrument to show and testify the FD history, the Class life and all the people who have contributed to the development and the promotion of the “ultimate sailing dinghy”. Its contents show the development, charm and beauty of FD sailing; with a review of events, trophies, results and the role past champions . Included are the IFDCO Foundation Rules and its byelaws which describe how the structure of the Class operate . Moreover, 2002 was the 50th Anniversary of the FD birth: 50 years of technical deve- lopment, success and fame all over the world and of Class life is a particular event. This new edition of the Class Book is a good chance to celebrate the jubilee, to represent the FD evolution and the future prospects in the third millennium. The Class Book intends to charm and induce us to know and to be involved in the Class life. Please, let me assent to remember and to express my admiration for Conrad Gulcher: if we sail, love FD and enjoyed for more than 50 years, it is because Conrad conceived such a wonderful dinghy and realized his dream, launching FD in 1952. Conrad, looked to the future with an excellent far-sightedness, conceived a “high-perfor- mance dinghy”, which still represents a model of technologic development, fashionable 3 water-line, low minimum hull weight and performance . Conrad ‘s approach to a continuing development of FD, with regard to materials, fitting and rigging evolution, was basic for the FD success.
