It feels like these last two months, August and September, were like a mad scramble to enjoy summer while it lasted. Junior sailing wrapped up, Publisher Benjamin Cesare family vacations happened in August, then the big, season ending or [email protected] championship regattas all went down in September. (And due to that family Publisher Emerita vacation, you may not have been as prepared as you would have liked!) Anne Hannan Cruisers and day sailors were out trying to milk the last few nice weekends [email protected] and evenings before the non-stop string of low pressure systems rolled Editor-at-Large through. For those in the industry who support our passions, they had all Christopher Gill this plus back-to-back-to-back boat shows to deal with. Fortunately this year, [email protected] the weather cooperated for the most part and at the time of this writing, Senior Editor before our friends in Annapolis have theirs, the Newport and Norwalk shows Chris Szepessy had great products, good weather and good attendance. [email protected] In this issue, we cover what went down in this flurry of activity but we Contributing Editor do want to highlight two things. This month’s cover photo, by Rich LaBella, Joe Cooper [email protected] is dedicated to Rob Roden of East Hampton, NY, founder of The Captain’s Guide, who crossed the bar in August. Rob also founded the Antigua and Graphic Design Kerstin Fairbend Barbuda Hamptons Challenge, which is featured on the cover. Rob was very [email protected] proud that this event had the largest prize of any amateur sailing event on the East Coast, and likely anywhere at all. The winning team earns free flights, Contributors Rick Bannerot, Billy Black, Cate Brown, Eileen Campbell, accommodations and a boat to race at Antigua Sailing Week in the spring. Peter Carroll, Chad Corning, Julia Cronin, Kevin Dailey, Sadly, Rob died at his sister’s home in Hampton Bays just a couple of weeks Ivy Dash, Brad Dellenbaugh, David Dellenbaugh, before the event. He was 70 and had been diagnosed with an aggressive form Kara DiCamillo, Adam Eggers, Jake Fish, Wilson Fitt, of cancer just six weeks prior. Rob’s wife Teresa told me right before The John K. Fulweiler, Cynthia Goss, Tom Kenney, Challenge that many people would understand if the event did not happen, Caroline Knowles, Diane Kropfl, Rich LaBella, Lucie Maranda, Dan Nerney, PhotoBoat.com, Vin Pica, but, Teresa said, “Rob will haunt me forever if I don’t pull this off.” Well Captain Kevin Reed, USCG, Will Ricketson, Teresa, family and friends from the Peconic Bay Sailing Association did Michael Rudnick, Bill Sandberg, Meghan Sepe, Alexa Shea, indeed pull it off and our hats go off to them! Quite sure Rob is smiling Alan Staniforth, Stuart Streuli, Walt Suchon, Riley Ulster, and will probably be present as always at Antigua Sailing Week next spring Elizabeth van der Voort, Andrea Watson, Kate Wilson to make sure that this year’s winners, Phil Walters and his team from Lloyd Ad Sales Harbor Yacht Club and Centerport Yacht Club, have a great time.

Editor’s note: The following letters were submit- ted in response to the Publisher’s Log in our September issue in which Ben Cesare began a discussion on the nearly universal use of the Op- timist in junior programs by stating, “I think the Optimist stinks as an early trainer.” We’ll have a full article on this topic next month. I agree. I was greatly dismayed when my kids reached a young sailing age, and our yacht club began switching to Optimists from 7’ 11” Dyer Dhows. The Optimist was a tiny tub with no ability for multipurpose use, neither rowing nor motoring. The club expected us to shell out large dollars for this little pram which had no use other than a kiddie trainer.

  • Rigging Guide
    R I G G I N G G U I D E Sail it. Live it. Love it. INTRODUCTION Congratulations on the purchase of your new RS400 and thank you for choosing an RS. We are confident that you will have many hours of great sailing and racing in this truly excellent design. Important Note The RS400 is an exciting boat to sail and offers fantastic performance. It is a light weight racing dinghy and should be treated with care. In order to get the most enjoyment from your boat and maintain it in top condition, please read this manual carefully. Whilst your RS boat has been carefully prepared, it is important that new owners should check that shackles, knots and mast step bolts etc. are tight. This is especially important when the boat is new, as travelling can loosen seemingly tight fittings and knots. It is also important to regularly check such items prior to sailing. Make sure that you have a basic tool kit with you the first time you rig the boat in case there are tuning / settings changes that you wish to make. Contents RIGGING INSTRUCTIONS TUNING AND SAILING TIPS CARE AND MAINTENANCE CLASS ASSOCIATION INSURANCE For further information, spares and accessories, please contact: LDC Racing Sailboats, Premier Way, Abbey Park, Romsey, SO51 9DQ Tel. +44 (0)17 9452 6760 Fax. +44 (0)17 9427 8418 Email.

Boats came from Annapolis to Maine. Organizers Bill Rothwell, Steve Braver- man, Linda Epstein, and Dave Nelson did a terrific job putting a fun weekend together. Unfortunately the weather on Sat did not cooperate forcing the cancellation of all racing due to winds gusting into the 30’s. Many thanks to CPYC for opening the bowling alleys, pool ta- bles and darts to keep the sailors occupied during the postponements. Sunday brought a beautiful day with lighter winds allowing the race committee to get in 10 races. Thanks go to the many CPYCers who worked the race committee, and lent their boats to the regatta. Racing was extremely close with less than a second between boats at the finish on numerous occasions. The regatta was won by Ted Ferra- rone and Meredith Killon, 2nd Stephen Benjamin and Brooks Davey, 3rd Paul-Jon Patin and Felicity Ryan, 4th Art and Jennifer Rousma- niere, 5th Jim Bowers and Lydia Brown.

  • SKEETA – Float Like a Butterfly Sting Like a Bee
    SKEETA – Float like a Butterfly sting like a Bee Dynamic development of a new market Foiling dinghies have become well established in the last 15 years, since the advent of flying Moth. The foiling catamarans in the America's Cup provided additional impetus from 2013 onwards. Foiling - this unique sailing experience was previously reserved for only a few, mostly pro-sailors. Sailing skills, technical and financial requirements were high - usually too high. This situation is currently changing. Significantly and faster than generally assumed. Scow-Shape rediscovered Today the Scow shape is experiencing an unexpected comeback, not only in small boats. The hull of the SKEETA is based on the proven Australian Moth class Scow shapes. It has been optimised step by step to meet the requirements for foiling. No snapshot The SKEETA is the latest foiling dinghy of the 3rd generation, designed, built, tested and made ready for production by an Australian duo that has been designing Moths with or without foils for many years. An exchange of ideas and opinions with QUANTBOATS took place during the last years. Quite a few wishes and requirements on the part of QUANTBOATS could be taken into account. SKEETA fits perfectly with our philosophy today. Fun throughout the entire wind range Like all our boats, the SKEETA is characterized by good-natured behaviour and excellent all-round characteristics. There is no need to forego performance - on the contrary. This includes perfect foiling behaviour in the lower to medium wind range as well as comfortable, controlled and fast sailing in very light or very strong winds.
