I am fully aware this 6/12 Week 2 BYSC & JSB Camps 8:30am is the South and the bugs are a part of the culture.

Be safe on the water and have fun! Simon Jenkins Commodore General Manager’s Message: Mitch McGuigan Work Projects • Thank you to the many volunteers who have made a difference at the club this winter and spring. Except for a few small- er projects, we will wait until the weather cools down in the fall to get back to our list. Mooring Ball Tender Use • The mooring tender may only be used by members who are assigned to a mooring ball. The tender may only be used to travel between the docks and moored boats. If you are tying up to your boat, please make sure the tender is visible from the docks so that other mooring –boaters can see where the tender is and contact you. Club Events • The club is in full swing. Please scroll through Bow Watch to learn about upcoming events and special reports. • If you plan to attend events that require reservations, please sign up by the deadlines. It is tough on organizers who need to buy and prepare food if there are last minute requests. • Sign up online for the June 14 Steak Night by June 12 at 5:00pm Steak Night Club News • BYSC member Tony Deason is looking for a place to rent the week of June 18. Call him if you have something. Tony Deason Mobile 980-298-4786 Home 704-843-2941 Pool • Last month we had to close the main pool for a day due to a fecal incident. It happens, but by following the guidelines below we can limit the frequency. • Non-toilet trained children may only use the pools under the following conditions: • Children may not use either pool if they have had diarrhea in the past 7 days. • Children who are not toilet trained must wear a clean, close-fitting, “Swim Diaper” with a plastic outer covering that has elastic at the waist and leg openings. A bathing suit or plastic pants must be worn over the “Swim Dia- per”. • The child must be closely supervised by a parent or caregiver and the diaper should be changed frequently. • Parents who not follow this policy may be charged the cost of restoring the pool to safe operating levels. • Fecal discharge can result in a pool closing and the cost for chemicals and partial water replacement in the main pool can be up to $350 and $100 for the kiddie pool. • A swimmer who causes a fecal incident may not use the pool for the next 7 days. Personal items left at the pool will be placed in the cubbies outside the bathhouse. They get moldy fast and so will be discarded every Monday. Paddle Boarding, Kayak and Small Dingy Safety • The river shore and launching area has many sharp oyster shells. Always wear closed toed shoes. • Please do not use small craft near the main floating docks. The current is strong. • Do not boat alone. Lowcountry Regatta • The club's biggest regatta is just around the corner.

    1. “Grace” Owned and built by Grahame Harris finished 2015, a TREAD LIGHTLY design by John Welsford. Built over a 3 year period from Meranti ply - fibreglassed over (up to the 2nd chine). The original 14ft design has been 'stretched’ to just under 17ft and she carries approx. 230 litres of water ballast. Grace flies a 4 sided “balanced lugsail” of approx 130 sq ft, has twin skegs and twin rudders. She has a 15hp Yamaha outboard mounted in the cockpit. Her name Grace, is a play on the design name “Tread Lightly” 2 ½ years to build in the shed. Carbon fibre 2 pce mast, 6hp 4 stroke outboard in motor well. Sleeps 2 comfortably. Full of BURNSCO accessories - from my work. 2. “Jameelah” Owned by Peter and Raewyn Dunlop. Built in 1994 by Honnor Marine, Devon, UK. Designed by Drascombe Lugger. 5.72m yacht. bought in 2005 from a friend when they lived in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates and on relocating to New Zealand brought her along with them. The name “Jameelah” is an Arabic word used when describing a beautiful woman which we think is very appropriate. The design is based on the original coastal fishing boats of north east England. The mizzen mast and tan sails giving her a traditional look and excellent all weather sailing qualities. She has a GRP hull and deck finished with hard wood trim. The mast is varnished timber and her rig design is “sliding gunter” which allows the top part of the mast to be easily lowered when at anchor or negotiating low structures.

  • 2016 Parent Handbook
    Sagamore Junior Sailing Program 2016 PARENT HANDBOOK Revised June 10, 2016 Sagamore Junior Sailing Program / LuHi Parent Handbook LuHi, welcome to the 2016 Sagamore Junior Sailing Program! These pages are meant to be a parent’s and future junior sailor’s guide in navigating the child’s way through the rewarding sport of junior sailing. In these pages you will find details on recommended equipment for the children to bring to the program, goals the program will focus for your child and the expectations of the parents themselves. The LuHi Summer Sailing Program is for Grades 4 thru 9. Sagamore Junior Sailing Mission The Sagamore Junior Sailing (SJS) Fleet’s Mission is to provide a fun and educational program for youth interested in sailing and racing. We seek to impart a love of sailing as a life sport while providing the fundamental skills necessary for participants to advance in the sport of sailing as far as their desire, skill and hard work may take them. Our instructors shall provide a curriculum with the most current and effective techniques to create skilled and confident youths who will respect others, care for their equipment and be willing to help fellow sailors on and off the water. Our sailors will be expected to conduct themselves in the Corinthian Spirit during practice and in competition. All Junior Fleet sailors, whether their interest be in cruising or racing, should emerge with an enhanced sense of self-reliance, knowledge of seamanship and a solid foundation in the sport of sailing. An Overview of Junior Sailing Junior Sailing can be like any other full time sport such as baseball, soccer or tennis – what a child puts into it will determine what a child will get out of the program.

The race runs south past Miami and slowly bends towards the west along the Keys for 160 NMs. This year Meridian XI started in an easterly wind with all the boats jib reaching. Within a few miles boats started setting their reaching spinnakers. For Meridian that meant a FR0 (fractional zero). A similar boat to Meridian XI, the Dunning 42 Baby B., was the competition for Meridian for the complete race. Unfortunately, there was never a chance to compare speeds in the reaching spinnaker configuration because a squall hit soon after setting the sails. The squall took out the FR0, and when the FRO blew up the single fractional halyard also broke. Without that halyard we were not able to set the other reaching spinnaker, the A5. We watched the Dunning sail away from us with their zero set while we jib reached behind them. It seemed to take forever for the course to bend around far enough to set the masthead A 1.5 spinnaker and begin to make ground on Baby B. The Gulf Stream flows hard to the north just a short distance out from the reef.

  • Melges Promo
    # THE WORLD LEADER IN PERFORMANCE ONE DESIGN RACING # # MELGES.COM # # MELGES.COM MELGES BOAT WORKS, INC. was founded by Harry C. Melges, Sr. in 1945. Melges became an instant leader in scow boat design, production and delivery in the U.S., particularly in the Midwest. Harry, Sr. initially built boats out of wood. The first boats produced were flat-bottomed row boats, which provided a core business to keep his vision and the company alive. It wasn't long before he branched into race boat production delivering the best hulls, sails, spars, covers and accessories ensuring his customers stayed on the competitive cutting-edge. Melges (pronounced mel•gis), is one of the most reputable, recognized and respected family names in the sailing industry. The devotion, generosity, perseverance and passion that surrounds the name is undeniable. It will forever be a legendary symbol of quality, excellence and experience that is second-to-none. Early on Harry Sr.’s son, Harry “Buddy” Melges, Jr. was involved in operating the family boat building business. Over time, Buddy established an impressive collection of championship titles and Olympic medals. During the 1964 Olympics, Buddy was awarded a bronze medal in the Flying Dutchman and in 1968 won a gold medal at the Pan Am Games. In 1972, he won a gold medal in the Soling in Kiel, Germany — the Soling’s official debut in Olympic competition. In the years that followed, Buddy won over 60 major national and international sailing championship titles. They include the Star in 1978 and 1979; 5.5 Metre in 1967, 1973 and 1983; International 50 Foot World Cup in 1989; Maxi in 1991 and the National E Scows in 1965, 1969, 1978, 1979 and 1983.
