July 2020 Happy 4Th!! Ooh!Ahh! Summer Double Issue!! July 2020 Happy 4th!! ooh!Ahh! Visit our Website Join us Sunday, July 12, for the next Board-Only Meeting via ZOOM! 1030 - 1200 Hours Stay tuned for the link in your email... The meeting at South Shore YC in Newport Beach has been CANCELLED! (Hey, we're over Zoom too! :P) THIS JUST IN!!! Club-of-the Year Covid-19 Guidelines for 2020 Click here for all 8 pages of: COY Criteria 2020 Commodore's Corner John Marshall I In the American holiday calendar no day is more significant than the Fourth of July, in which we celebrate the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776. That Declaration proclaimed to the world our separation from Great Britain and our emergence as a new sovereign nation, as we state in the pledge to our flag, "Under God, with liberty and justice for all." The Declaration stated unequivocally: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness...that to secure these Rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed." Those few words sum up the divine source of our unalienable rights and our philosophy of government. Nothing quite so revolutionary had been proclaimed anywhere by any people. But those beliefs had to be affirmed by a long, bloody war, which was finally won. The result has been this shining light on a hill, the United States of America, the most free, most creative, most productive, and richest nation in the history of mankind. In the recreational boating community, I’m always inspired by the reverence shown to the American flag. The patriotism is endemic and ubiquitous. It may attributed to the fact that a significant number of recreational boaters have served in the armed forces of United States of America. This year, my wife and I are honored to serve as Judges for the Old Glory 4th of July Boat parade sponsored by the American Legion Yacht Club in Newport Harbor. We hope to see many boats decked out in the Red, White and Blue! That is why we must celebrate the Fourth of July -— Independence Day -— with all the fervor and joy that the American people can muster, and why we humbly thank the men who gave us our Declaration of Independence, which will remain for future generations of Americans the beacon of liberty, the upholder of our divine unalienable rights, the guardian of our independence. Its words must be written in the hearts and minds of our citizens, so that we never forget the price paid for our freedom ... and the reasons why freedom is worth paying the price. ---John 2020 Congressional Cup Event Canceled Event will return in 2021 Long Beach Yacht Club has canceled the 2020 Congressional Cup regatta, which had been slated to begin April 2020 and postponed to mid-October. Originally scheduled April 28 to May 3, 2020, reigning Congressional Cup champion and six-time match racing world champion Ian Williams (GBR) was to defend his title. Williams is a four-time winner of the Crimson Blazer (2011, 2012, 2017 and 2019), a feat accomplished by only four other skippers in 55 years of Congressional Cup racing: Gavin Brady, Taylor Canfield, Rod Davis and Peter Holmberg. Congressional Cup is more than just a sailboat race,” Busch continued. “It’s a tradition and a rite- of-passage, and for many sailors, the gateway to the America’s Cup. The congregation of athletes and officials who come to Long Beach from around the world each year are warmly hosted by our generous club members, making it feel more like a family reunion at times – with households welcoming the same sailors year after year.” Both Congressional Cup and Ficker Cup are expected to return in 2021, she added.

Enter Here!! ...and the Committee Boat is ready! J​ unior Sailing Steve Harris, Chair As I write this article, Junior Directors across Southern California are trying to figure out how to safely navigate the COVID-19 pandemic. All US Sailing Junior National Championships have been cancelled. All of the large national junior sailing classes have also cancelled large events normally held in the summer (ie C420 North Americans). Our regional events like Sabot Nationals, CFJ Nationals, and Southern California Junior Olympics are also cancelled. A few Yacht Club junior programs are trying to open with limited offerings and new safety protocols in place. Some have some sort of small single-handed sailing offering, but many have not kicked off their summer programs at all. SDYC has some solid junior Laser sailing going on, and CYC is offering private lessons, to name a few options. As we speak, the Southern California Youth Yacht Racing Association, and Pacific Coast Interscholastic Sailing Association are discussing what the Fall sailing schedules will look like. Hopefully, we will have more positive news to report in our next update. For now, stay safe and take care of family and neighbors. ---Steve From the Cortez Racing Association Susi Graff CRA Communications We are still taking it a day at a time here, hoping that the County will open up recreational boating in San Diego to all crewed boats, not just households. We have been represented at recent County Supervisor meetings and are communicating with the County with email comments as well. For the Beer Can Series, we are currently taking "pre-registration" of boats that are interested in racing. We have no start date, but will hold the series if we can get a least 3 races in before mid- August or so. Again, we are beholden to the County for our ability to hold this series. And the same goes for the rest of the racing calendar year. We are taking it one race at a time. In the meantime we will continue to hold our "Race Your Household" races and on July 18 we will have an abbreviated version of our Commodore's Cup doing one race in the Bay with households only at this point. Yachtsman and NOSA Artist, Gary Militmore, 76, Dies Jo Murray, contributor, The Grunion Gary Scott Miltimore, one of yachting’s most beloved characters, died peacefully from complications of stage 4 melanoma on June 2. His wife of 28 years, Diana Jennings Miltimore, was at his side. A California native born March 12, 1944, Miltimore grew up in the Naples area of Long Beach and spent summers on Catalina Island, where he developed his love for the sea. His paintings include his impressions of classic yachts such as Puritan and Goodwill that were often seen anchored off Avalon’s Casino in the 1950s. For five years, his painting served as the poster for Newport Ocean Sailing Association’s Newport to Ensenada race. In his teens, Miltimore started racing in local events and by 1968 had become a part of the intense world of the offshore racing circuit sailing aboard such famous racers as Kialoa II and III, Baruna, Sirius II, Blackfin, Windward Passage, Cheetah, Drifter, Ragtime and Merlin. Miltimore chalked up thousands of blue water miles including six TransPacs, two Transatlantic races, the Newport to Bermuda Classic, Florida's Southern Ocean Racing Conference, Hawaii's Clipper Cup, Mazatlán, Cabo San Lucas and the China Sea Race from Hong Kong to Manila, among others. As documented on his website, for more than 55 years, Gary Miltimore painted detailed graphics on many of Southern California’s sail and power boats as well as commercial operations including Catalina Express, Catalina Flyer, Air Catalina, Catalina Seaplanes, Catalina Adventure Tours and Kilroy Industries. To quote his friend Rick Ruppert, “Gary had a ribald wit and storytelling ability that few possess. He was a fine pianist. A huge talent is gone, but never forgotten." His ashes will be spread at sea and a celebration of life is tentatively planned for October.

  • Fourth Quarter 2012 from the Editor As Many of You Have Heard, Travis
    Fourth Quarter 2012 From the Editor As many of you have heard, Travis purchased a brand new boat. Not a good used boat, but a boat straight off the line. The boat, a Catalina 315, was christened "Kestrel" last month by one of the officers in the 60th Force Support Squadron. It replaces the much aged and badly damage 30 foot "Warrior". I have had the opportunity to sail her once. Because the boat is brand new, the Marina is going to be a bit more touchy about who sails her. Sailing "Kestrel" requires a checkout. Being checked out on "Warrior" does not qualify. "Kestrel" is very different. For Volunteer Skipper sails, normally two checked out crew members will be required. For the time being, classes will still be held on the old 27 foot boats. Students will then need to sail a few times with checked out skippers before advancing to getting checked out themselves. This is not a hazing program; this is designed to preserve a brand new asset. The biggest news this last quarter and the beginning of this one? The America's Cup. For two weeks, the medium size boats have been ripping across the waters of the bay. (I say "medium" because next year they will bring the "big" boats.) Some of our club members have participated by working the course. Some have been spectating from shore. Some of us have been watching from boats on the water. And some of use just watch it on television. No doubt these races are very different from America's Cup races in the past.

  • The Club That “Went to Sleep”
    Chapter 2 THE CLUB THAT “WENT TO SLEEP” From what has been related in the first chapter it is clearly evident that the Geelong Yacht Club was at a very low ebb in 1869 and from that time until 1880 there is no evidence to show that a Yacht Club was in existence in Geelong. On the other hand there is strong evidence to suggest that the Geelong yachtsmen of the day continued to indulge in their favourite sport by participating in Geelong regattas and also taking part in manoeuvres and sailing matches conducted by the Port Phillip Yacht Club, later to be known as the Victoria Yacht Club and now known as the Royal Yacht Club of Victoria. But, as the purpose of this volume is to not only record the history of the Royal Geelong Yacht Club but also to record the history of sailing on Corio Bay it is perhaps appropriate to relate something of the aquatic events which took place during the period 1870-1880. The 1870 Geelong Regatta was obviously a very gay affair but, once again, we see a very small entry in the main event, the Yacht Race. However, in contrast to the previous year, there was a very good attendance. So it would seem that the criticism levelled by the Geelong Advertiser reporter in 1869, when the drapers refused to close their doors, had been heeded. It is also interesting to note that Captain Nicholson, the last-named Commodore of the Geelong Yacht Club, was the judge and Mr. Farrell, the G.Y.C.
