August 2016 Proud Host of the 2016 U.S. Youth Championship, August 5 - 9 Established 1913 Report from the Commodore By Commodore Penny Boggs Our 4th of July weekend brought us many members, their families and guests to the club to share all the wonderful activities that GM Lou and the Staff put on for us, as well as the greatest place in town to watch the fireworks. I’m told that the office gave out over 4000 wristbands for the holiday weekend! The town was a buzz as usual, but we are the only place on the Island that was having a party from Friday to Monday night! It was a great 4th for sure. Many thanks to our wonderful Staff who stayed on top of all of the events, as well as all of the clean up each morning that was required

to get ready for the next event! Look out for “The Call” with information on the Special Meeting to be held on Saturday, August 20th regarding the Dock Electrical Project. We will be requesting the membership’s approval of movement of some funds, as well as some additional funding for some most needed additional electrical upgrades. We will take advantage of this Special Meeting to share with membership all the details of the new electrical project and give time for any questions to be answered. We will have the Helfer’s Electrical with us as well as our Building Chair S/C Shawn Powell. This will be a very informative meeting and I encourage all to come and hear about the great improvements we will be making to our docks very soon. We have received our permit from the City to begin this work and we are looking at an official start date of August 11th. We had a short delay due to the back order of the specific pedestals that were selected for the docks. You will notice that our Facilities Director Fabian and his crew have already started pulling up boards on E Dock to investigate and anticipate any repairs that may be need to be done ahead of the Electrical Contractor. Be watching for office notices to slip holders requesting the clearing of docks so we are not impeding upon the progress of the electricians. Sharp Hospice Regatta will be here again on August 27th. At last count we had close to 25 spectator boats signed up to take guest out to watch the Regatta. This is a wonderful benefit for an awesome cause and if you haven’t participated before or attended any of the events, please consider doing so this year. The new Strategic Planning Team (SPT) Committee held their first workshop on July 9th, with about 30 CYC members showing up to give input and ask questions of the new committee. I believe the next meeting is scheduled for September, allowing us all to get through the summer busyness. A new email address has been created specifically for the members who would like to communicate with the SPT committee. That address is: [email protected]. We encourage all who have questions, suggestions, or just want to know more to inquire through this email. Committee Members will receive and review the emails and ensure a prompt response is provided, and if necessary they will forward to the appropriate person.

Hope you all are enjoying the summer as much as we are! The heat gives us an even better excuse to use our boats! Looking forward to seeing you out on the water or enjoying a libation and some great food on the patio deck. Photo by Stacy Childers www.stacychilders.com

Page 3 From the Rear By Rear Commodore Dean Eckenroth

To PUNtificate is wise: Every morning is the dawn of a new error.

The July Member Summary reflects 644 memberships counting towards our Flag limit and we have 6 Flag equivalents available to reach our Membership limit of 650. Though reductions in applications processed in the last few months continue, Club membership is holding its own at this time. The Social Member experience continues to fuel Flag Membership in a positive manner and has proven to be a valuable recruitment vehicle.

The committee interviewed 5 applicants on Thursday, July 7, recommending approval of all candidates. Nominees were approved in executive session at the Thursday, July 14 Board meeting (see below).

Membership committee persists in examining ways to improve and streamline the applicant process, better the Member experience, our communication process and how we could help our volunteer committees and provide better outreach.

We have reviewed the excellent Membership FAQ prepared by Jane Lee and Slip Lists and Assignments from Port Captain Dave Flint; submitting these products to the Board for approval; and eventual dissemination to new and current Members. It is our hope these handouts will better communicate both rules and specific details which new and prospective Members question; and current Members may enjoy as useful information.

The next project to be undertaken involves documenting procedures and methods used by Membership in dealing with onboarding new Members, as well as managing all classes of memberships. While many specific procedures are reflected within our Bylaws, some are not clear; conflicts have been recognized and changes may be recommended. In addition, as the Membership Committee has processed applications, deferrals and resignations over these past many months, we have noted differences due to rule and method changes over the years. Our obligation is to have a consistent system while documenting decisions within the prevue of the committee and preparing any recommendations for possible change.

We will be creating a Membership Committee manual that can be used going forward with the ability for updates as necessary by the next committee generation(s).

Following healthy interview schedules beginning 2016, memberships continue slowly, temporarily sidelining any wait list protocol for Social and Flag members. Should applicants exceed resignations going forward, committee will revisit wait list protocols.

Recommended by Committee for Membership:

FLAG: Erin & Ricardo Enrico, sponsored by Christian and Allison Rice and Gina Falletta; David & Kathleen Fairbank, sponsored by Fred Hawes and Wayne and Nancy Strickland; and Sandra Tredwell, sponsored by Pat Flynn and Pati Bigham. | JR FLAG: None | SOCIAL: Christopher & Mary Farley, sponsored by Harper Hatheway and Suzanne Johnson, sponsored by Marita Bodkin. | JUNIOR: None | DEFERRED: None.

Strategic Planning Team By Director Jon Ryan

The CYC Strategic Planning team has completed three meetings and a member input Workshop thus far.

We will update more soon. Look for another member Workshop after Labor Day.

If you have any questions or input please go online and email us at [email protected].

Food and Bar Blog:

As Chair of the Foodservice and Bar Committee, I will be reporting various topics throughout the year.

We are still in the process of developing new menus. Our mission is to simplify the menus, focus on items that sell and do not cause the kitchen to be spread too thin, and provide a higher quality dining experience for our membership.

New menus will launch by early September.

2016 Sir Thomas Lipton Cup Regatta by 2016 Lipton Cup Chairman Steve Streifer

It’s hard to believe, but the 2016 Lipton Cup is only three months away.

HELP US As Skipper, Patrick Powell is doing a great job rallying our team. Jon Rogers has put together a detailed, REACH OUR comprehensive practice schedule, making sure that the team works hard on mastering the lessons from GOAL! last year’s race. The team will be practicing on two chartered J-105s that will be in the boat rotation for the actual Cup competition. In addition, this year, thanks to the generous contributions of many members, we have been able to order a new set of practice sails that will be built at the same time as, and be identical to, $16,500 the new sails being purchased by the SDYC for this (and several future) years’ races. This will provide our team with the most realistic and challenging training experience that we can. $15,000

$13,500 Moneywise, contributions towards this year’s fundraising campaign are still coming in, and we continue to get closer to our goal. For all of you who have been generous with your support this year, as well as for $12,000 those who have contributed in recent years, we invite you to please attend our Lipton Cup Sponsor $10,500 Appreciation Reception on Saturday, August 13, from 3:00 to 6:00 to show our thanks. We will have a variety of hot and cold hors d’oeuvres prepared by Chef Benito and his staff, and we’ll showcase a $9,000 selection of quality and complimentary wines put together by noted oenophile, our own Jeff Jakus. Many $7,500 thanks to Jeff, Lou and the office staff for facilitating this reception.

$6,000 Additional thanks go to Jill Powell, for taking on the responsibility for buying this year’s crew shirts and $4,500 sponsor appreciation shirts. We plan to have the sponsor shirts available at the reception to enable our generous contributors to proudly sport them around the Club. $3,000

$1,500 For those who plan to contribute this year, but just haven’t gotten around to it yet, we are including a dues check-off form in the August bills. And, of course, you can also drop off a check, made out to Coronado Maritime Foundation at the office.

We look forward to seeing you at the Reception! Page 6 Rod & Reel By Rod & Reel Chair Paul Dodson

All anglers- save the date(s) of Saturday, August 13th and Sunday, August 14th. On the 13th, we have the 19th Annual South Bay Combined Fishing Tournament and on the 14th, we have the Annual Rod and Reel Fish Fry and Awards Dinner.

Basic tournament info is posted in the hallway on the wall alongside the fish catch record board, or you can contact Paul Dodson, Rod and Reel Chairman, at 619-993-3943 for further details and/or entry into the one day tournament. As for the Annual Fish Fry, you can sign-up at the Front Office as of July 14th (30 days prior to any event). The Fish Fry is always a sell- out, so don’t delay.

As for current fishing conditions – things are very good, both in the Bay and offshore. Flag Member Al Thomas frequently fishes San Diego Bay and has been catching Halibut, Sea Bass, Calico Bass, Yellow Fin Croaker and Corvina. Offshore has been very interesting – fish on one day, no fish the next day. Flag Member Michael Copp landed a 60lb Yellow Fin Tuna on #30 test line and Flag Member Scott Darnell speared a 132lb Yellow Fin Tuna, both fish on a good day of fishing. Speaking of Scott Darnell, recently he took two non-club friends offshore and they returned with a speared Yellow Fin Tuna (estimated weight of approximately 260-270lbs) as our Club scale only goes to 250lbs. Congratulations to all of these individuals for their efforts and participation in Rod and Reel, and spear gun activity below the water line.

This year is off to a great start with Blue Fin Tuna mixed in with the many Yellow Fin Tuna. Remember the law says you can only catch once Blue Fin Tuna per person per day and no more than ten Yellow Fin Tuna.

Anyway, fishing is good overall and now is a good time to cast your line and participate in the angling process. Very notable fishing locations consist of the Nine Mile Bank, 181 & 182 spots, the 302, the Corner and the 43. The past two months have produced record fish at these locations.

Collect your friends, get onboard and go fishing, you might just like it. Also, don’t forget – you must have the required fishing license(s) – California and Mexican (if you travel into Mexican waters). You may even need FMM’s while travelling into Mexican waters, so be sure to check into the type of license and permit(s) you may need before you travel to Mexico.

Remember to call Paul Dodson if you are available to participate in the South Bay Combined Tournament on Saturday, August 13th and sign-up at the office for the Fish Fry Dinner on Sunday, August 14th.

Another great Independence Day Celebration at the CYC this year! Thanks to Lou, Benito, Fabian, & the entire staff and crew for all of their hard work. They are constantly working behind the scenes to ensure that our members and guests have the best CYC experience they can have. Please extend a “thank you” to any member of our staff and crew when you see them, they deserve it!

The next Paint Night will be Monday, August 15 at 6:30. This month we will be painting the San Diego-Coronado Bay Bridge (see flyer picture here!)

The Second Annual Sunday Splash at the Dinghy Dock is on August 14th from 1:00-3:00, bounce house up at 3:00! Be sure to sign up with the office and sign your liability waiver ahead of time, we don’t want any delays in the fun. Personal Flotation Devices are required for all children 12 and under (please bring your own). Adult supervision is required at all times, and children under 7 must be accompanied by an adult while in the water. This is a special event, as swimming off the docks is not usually allowed and was approved by your Board of Directors for this event!

Thinking about camping this summer but it sounds like too much work? Sign up for CYC’s Corinthian Sprit Day and Sleepover on Friday, August 19th. Camp set up starts at 2:00 and reservations are required as we have limited space. The cost to camp will be $20 per tent space and will include a continental breakfast on Saturday morning for sleepover participants. From 5:00-6:00 the kids will enjoy our Corinthian Spirit activities including knot tying and burgee making. Feel free to BBQ after the activities or order dinner from the club before the showing of the movie “The Croods” at 8:00pm. These activities are welcome to all members, not just sleepover participants. Sign up with the front office today!

On Sunday, August 21st, bring your blanket down to the club for a showing of “Caddy Shack”! A fantastically funny movie that has definitely stood the test of time! The bar menu will be available until 7:30pm on this night, no sign up required.

Save The Dates: September 12th: Paint Night ... September 17th: Crab Dinner

Page 8 Cruiser Navigation Fleet by Dave Weimer

Our usual July cruiser navigation contests were awaited with enthusiasm because we have always planned on two contests this month on the same day in the ocean.

Our preparations for the two contests were complete and the CYC contingent was ready to go, but Mother Nature had other plans for all of us.

Saturday, July 23, dawned bright and sunny with a lingering offshore fog bank to keep us cool. However, as we made plans to begin our first contest from red channel buoy “16A,” the seemingly friendly fog bank began to move inland. And by the start, for most of us, the southwesterly eddy picked up with strong winds from the south and ground hugging fog. By the time we reached Ballast Point, visibility was down to under 100 yards.

Some racers continued on using their radars for guidance. But most of us, including Jeff and myself from Coronado, decided that the conditions were not safe, and we abandoned the first contest. Only four contestants continued the race under limited visibility conditions and their radars for locating the various checkpoints. All of the other skippers either did not continue their race, or decided not to participate.

By mid-morning, it was clear that the fog was not going to “burn off,” so the Race Committee cancelled the planned second contest.

For Jeff and myself, even the return to the bridge and the course into the Glorietta Bay proved challenging as the fog had moved in from the ocean to completely obscure the bridge and the Coronado Shores condominiums. We both felt we made the right decision, and were thankful we safely made it back into our Coronado berths.

It is expected that our August contest will now be a dual affair to make up for the July cancellation. We’ll report on our efforts next month.

We continue to encourage both established and new members of Coronado Yacht Club to consider participating in our monthly cruiser navigation events. Make plans now to join our cadre of CYC contestants during one of the remaining contests in 2016. We meet every Saturday prior to our on the water contest at 10 AM in the Club bar area.

Contact Magnus Karlsson, Jeff Calabrese, or myself, and we will help you get prepared to join us in our fun and educational sport. I’m always looking for another hand on deck to help me navigate and enjoy the competition. Please do not hesitate to call me (858-485-7545) or email [email protected]) to learn more about participating and representing Coronado YC in the 2016 San Diego Cruiser Navigation Contest schedule. Birdwatching in Coronado Learning the Local birds that frequent the area By Flag Member Jeff Calabrese

Let's take a "tern"...

There are two terns pictured on the right; They are members of the family with their base colors being pale to slate grey with white underparts. They feed on fish & are coastal birds that prefer broad level expanses of open sandy or gravelly beach.

They are fast flyers and have the ability to hover just before snatching a fish. I find myself fascinated by the torsional flexibility of the "quill shafts" that is demonstrated by this maneuver. They are neat to watch and are the desired "birds" to look for when fishing off shore. If the terns are on fish you usually will be too.

We all know the Least Tern (picture above, left). They are the smallest of the terns and a frequent sight on Glorietta Bay, San Diego Bay and the near shore waters. They have yellow feet, bill and a distinctive black mask. Although they are not endangered, they are probably the most litigated and mitigated bird in town. $$$$$ are spent on trying to provide them habitat after we have encroached upon theirs. Not good for us to be making noise during their nesting season either and many noise making operations such as pile driving and dredging are usually scheduled around them.

The Elegant Tern (picture above, right) is a medium sized tern. They have a black cap with a shaggy crest, a reddish orange bill and black legs and feet. They only breed in five colonies, three of which are is southern California. When they come around, it is not uncommon for them to roost in droves on moored boats and leave a corresponding mess.

Page 9 Sailing Tandem of Henken and Scutt to Represent U.S. in Rio Olympics By David Alexson, Coronado Eagle and Journal Normally an apology isn’t a good way to commence an interview, but since most of my formative years were spent growing up in sailing mecca of Prairie Village, Kansas, your columnist was almost comically ill-prepared to conduct an interview with Olympians Paris Henken (CHS ’14) and Helena Scutt. The pair will represent the United States at the Olympic Games in the 49erFX sailing class, when the competition is held in Rio de Janeiro August 12-18, 2016.

We’ll start with Henken, who is the daughter Coronado residents Ed and Tamra Henken. The Henken siblings include Hans Henken (CHS ’11), who along with his sailing partner Judge Ryan are the Olympic alternates in the Class, and they are currently serving as the training partners for the pair that edged them out in the Olympic Trials. Paris said of her older brother, “Their goal was to make the 2020 Olympic games and they got really close to winning the Trials this year.”

The sailing Henkens also include Paris’ twin brother Sterling Henken (CHS ’14), who is a skipper for the UC Santa Barbara Sailing Team. “We started sailing when we were six years old,” Paris said of the twins’ joint sailing background. “Actually my parents put Hans in a summer sailing camp. When Sterling and I were old enough, they put us in the same camp and we never stopped sailing.”

Paris, who is a member of both the Coronado Yacht Club and the San Diego Yacht Club, learned to sail in Sabots before graduating to winning the 2010 North American Event in the Class and then the 2011 U.S. Youth Championships. Paris is enrolled at the College of Charleston, but has been on sabbatical since December 2014 to campaign with Scutt for the Olympics. She is scheduled to return to the South Carolina school for class two days after the Olympic competition concludes. Helena Scutt laughed and said, “Hashtag student-athlete.”

Scutt is the crew to Henken’s skipper role on their 49erFX boat. She comes from an entirely different background, growing up on Lake Washington near Seattle. Scutt is the daughter of Tania and Oliver Scutt and she was born in Cheltenham, England. “I had a British passport and I have been an American citizen since 2012 because I had to wait until I was 18,” Scutt explained. She has a younger sister Nicola, who doesn’t race, but has been a sailing instructor and is currently a student at the University of Washington.

Helena Scutt played soccer until she was in ninth grade. She explained the transition between sports. “I was on a club soccer team called Crossfire, and basically around ninth grade I started to burn out and wanted something new. One of the great things about sailing is every day on the water is different. I wanted a new sport and a new challenge. My Dad always wanted me to sail, but he wasn’t pressuring me. He nudged me into racing and I never looked back. I always knew how to sail, but I had never raced, which is completely different than a little tour around the lake.”

Scutt started as the skipper aboard a one-person class boat and within two years she started crewing on a 29er Class boat, which is a smaller version of the 49er. She then crewed her entire college career at Stanford. Scutt graduated in 2014 from Stanford with a degree in Biomechanical Engineering and in addition completed half of her work toward a Masters in Mechanical Engineering while she was an undergrad. She expects to return to Stanford in September to complete her degree and select an area of concentration for her Masters.

During our interview I tried to generate a little controversy between the pair, who also appear to be good friends, suggesting that with her college degree Scutt could probably tell Henken what to do on occasion. Scutt chuckled, didn’t bite and said, “I don’t tell her what to do and that has never been the goal. I have a ton of respect for Paris having the courage to take this unconventional path. It seems obvious now, but three years ago without a guarantee, she believed in herself, in us and took the risk. What we have experienced has been unforgettable. As will be this summer.”

To add an additional degree of difficulty to her sailing career, in September 2013, Scutt was involved in a sailing accident and suffered several major injuries. Scutt explained, “We were at the 49erFX World Championships in Marseilles, France. It was our first international event together. We were coming into a mark where boats converge and we were really close and another boat hit me. We were going in opposite directions and that generated a lot of force. The boat hit me and my body was between the two boats. Both boats stopped and flipped over. I broke two ribs, lacerated my left kidney, suffered internal bleeding and I fractured the left transverse process of my second lumbar vertebrae. It was pretty crazy. To fracture the transverse process takes a lot of force, like from a motorcycle accident. I was so fortunate that I didn’t need surgery. I had a lot of rest and I was able to get back to Stanford pretty quickly. My Dad helped me settle back in the dorm and I took a quarter off from Stanford sailing. I took classes and adjusted to a normal routine.”

Together Henken and Scutt have the challenge of sailing a boat 4.99 meters long (hence the name 49er) or about 17 feet in length, that weighs 220 pounds, is 22 feet tall and can achieve speeds of 25 miles an hour while in competition. Add to that

Page 10 the fact that both sailors hang over the side of the boat, parallel to and about one foot above the water.

For the past several months, Scutt and Henken have basically been citizens of the world, traveling and competing in events far and wide. Scutt described their 2016 campaign thus far. “We started in Miami in January and then we went to Clearwater in February for the two Olympic Selection events. We spent a little time at home before going to Palma in Majorca for training and an event in March. Then we took the ferry to Barcelona. We finished eighth in the European Championships in Palma out of 36 teams, then 13th out of 37 teams in Barcelona.”

Looking ahead to the Olympic competition, Henken said, “A couple of countries are really good. The Brazilians, the Dutch, New Zealand, Italy and Spain.” Scutt added, “No one is dominant right now and there are a lot of excellent teams. It can be anyone’s game.”

The Olympic 49erFX course itself, is one-mile long, but with tacking and other sailing maneuvers, the races often take 30-40 minutes to complete and the actual sailing distance can be three to four miles. Henken spoke about the specific challenges of the Olympic course located near Rio de Janeiro. “The first time we sailed there was December 2014 and then we went again last August. Rio is known for a crazy current in the Bay because of all the mountains and the way the winds shift. The wind goes above and around the mountains. So we basically have gone there to get more familiar with the current. We plan to go three more times before the Olympics. Every day is different on the Bay. You can get a handle on the current if you sail there a lot. The current can be as fast as five miles an hour and it’s never the same anywhere on the course. Sometimes the current flows out and sometimes its flows back in. It can be swirling different ways on different parts of the course.”

As for the much-publicized water contamination and health issues facing the Rio Games, Henken said, “We don’t have any immediate concerns. We have heard about precautions from our doctors. We are there to train and that is what we are mainly focused on.”

Continued on Page 13 The History of the U.S. Sailing National Championship

The U.S. Youth Sailing Championship was started in 1973 at the Sheridan Shore Yacht Club in Wilmette IL. The top 150 sailors from around the country, aged 19 or under (ISAF World Youth Championship age limit), were sent invitations on US Olympic Committee letterhead to attend the event in Lasers and 470s in mid-June.

The U.S. Youth Championship is now the pinnacle of youth racing for the summer season. The event has several goals: (a) to provide a challenge to young sailors to grow beyond the skill levels used to win at the local and regional level (b) to serve as a bridge between Junior Sailing (age 17) and College Sailing (c) to better produce US sailors capable of winning the World Youth Championships in big-fleet races; (d) to develop and identify talent for the US Olympic Sailing Team, and (e) to motivate a lifetime commitment to sailing. Youth Championship graduates have become the stalwarts of successful college sailing programs and fill out the ranks of All-Americans.

Invitations to the event are made by US Sailing's Youth Championship Selection Committee, based on review of applicant's entry forms. Other than the Laser, boats have changed over the years. In 2006, this prestigious championship included Club 420's, Lasers, Laser Radials and 29ers. In 2013, another championship, the U.S. Youth Championship was incorporated into the Youth Championship. The International 420s were included and Boardsailing was also reintroduced.

The Robert L. Johnstone III Trophy for the Singlehanded winner recognizes the Founder and Chairman (1973-1980) of the event and his contribution to one-design and community sailing programs. The Doublehanded trophy memorializes Manton D. Scott, a Sears Cup winner ('69), Collegiate All-American ('72) and inspirational leader in small boat sailing, who was electrocuted by an overhead power line when stepping the mast of his 470. This was a month prior to the 1973 event, where Scott had been scheduled as one of the Clinic instructors. The Robert and Ann Conner Trophy was donated for the winner of the Radial Division in recognition of their contributions to junior sailing.

Sportsmanship awards were given out beginning in 1989 in the name of 1973 participant and later event Chairman, David M. Perry, a well-known author of books on the racing rules, recognizing his leadership qualities in junior and intercollegiate sailing. The W. Darline Hobock Sportsmanship prize recognizes pure sportsmanship behavior throughout the multihull fleet. For many years the U.S. Youth Multihull Championship was organized by the Multihull Council and was initially sailed for the Hoyt-Jolley Trophy. In 2004 a new trophy was awarded in honor of Arthur J. Stevens whose dedication to youth multihull sailing was the foundation of this championship. It became part of the Youth Champs in recognition of the importance of youth multihull sailing within US Sailing.

Page 12 “Sailing Tandem of Henken and Scutt…” Continued from Page 11

Their direct responsibilities on the boat while preparing for a major competition were discussed by Scutt. “We go to the boat and set it up together. We change parts of the setup depending on the conditions. We look at the weather forecast and then the weather itself. Then we go to the course and we maybe have half an hour to assess the conditions, change settings and discuss strategy. We do that together. While Paris is talking with our coach about the conditions and the strategy for the day, I make the changes on the boat with the rigging. Hopefully if I finish in time, I can join the conversation. We don’t have very much time, sometimes just five minutes. You take the weather forecast with a grain of salt and trust your instincts with what you see.”

Speaking boats, Henken and Scutt Sailing own two 49ers. Their primary competition boat is currently in a container on a ship headed to Rio. Their other vessel is still in and will likely be replaced by next year. Scutt explained, “Over time the boats get softer and gain a little bit of weight. For our performance needs, it’s time to get an upgrade.” I was afraid to ask the question, but a new 49er competition boat costs on the order of $30,000.

Scutt discussed the high finances relating to the sport of international sailing. “We have had support from U.S. Sailing Team Sperry for the past couple of years, but that is nowhere close to covering our expenses. The U.S. Olympic Committee supports you only when you qualify for the Olympics. Even after that, most of the support is about the actual Olympic competition. We have a lot of costs to cover ourselves before the Games. Running an Olympic campaign in sailing is like running your own business. I can relate to my Stanford classmates who have their own companies. We are sailing and trying to figure out how to be the best in the world. It’s about the fundraising, traveling, and getting boats around the world for different events.”

About the only feedback I can supply is that Henken and Scutt, despite suffering from a major case of jet lag, were generous with their time during their brief stopover in Coronado. Scutt was headed to Seattle after a couple of days locally and Henken was soon to depart for a brief stopover at the College of Charleston.

Both Olympians were most appreciative of the efforts of their parents and both thanked U.S. Sailing Team Sperry High Performance Director Charlie McKee for his contribution to their careers. Henken said, “Charlie lived in Coronado for a while and basically he is the one that inspired me to go on this journey. I’m pretty young to be sailing in the Olympic Games. When I was in high school, basically he had the most faith in my potential. He convinced me to do this and I am so happy he did.”

Scutt added, “My father was a lot more understanding of what sailing took at first and clued my Mom into what was involved, especially fundraising. My sister had helped in an artistic way, designing our logo and placing the logo on our sail. Of course the Henken Family has been really supportive. I want to thank my college sailing Coach John Vandemoer, the head coach at Stanford and also Charlie McKee. He was at my first 29er regatta and he helped build my interest in sailing. And I want to thank my 29er coaches Ben and Jen Glass. They are from Seattle and they were my first coaches.”

To contribute to a couple of sailors, who believe me you would like to see do well, visit www.henkenscuttsailing.com. There are a variety of ways to contribute financially to their Olympic sailing effort.

One of the major charities CYC strongly supports each year is the Sharp HospiceCare Charity Regatta and events to be held the weekend of August 25-28 this summer at CYC. CYC sailboat racers are encouraged to sign up and race to support HospiceCare Charity Race and, of course, have lots of fun sailing and partying on Saturday, August 27th after the sailboat race. A good number of our own charitable members donate usage of their boats as spectator boats to take members of the public out on the water for a substantial amount per person to watch the sailors race in the Bay. We all really appreciate our boat owners sharing their boats for a great charitable cause. We, at the present time, have all the boats needed for spectator boats. Thank you.

We do however need to use wet slips of Coronado Yacht Club members with 40’, 50’, 60’ and larger slips. These vacated slips will be occupied for this weekend by yachts serving as spectator boats.

If you have a 40’, 50’ or larger slip at CYC and plan to be gone from your slip August 25 through 28, please call Dave Flint, 619- 885-8310, or Fabian , 619-435-1848, so Sharp HospiceCare may use your slip for a spectator boat.

CYC sailboat racers are encouraged to race August 27 in the Greg Walker Cup. Go to the Cortez Racing Association website www.cortezracing.com to register.

Waves and Words By Chaplain Gary Boggs

It’s the “Summer” edition of “Waves and Words” and I’d like to thank all of those who take the time to check out my “ramblings.” We’re almost half way through summer already. Opening Day and the 4th of July have blown by us and here comes August. What a great time of year this is. We are blessed to have so many activities to be a part of here at CYC, but I also like the times when I can focus on the little things that often go unnoticed. I like the early morning on a clear day just before the sun comes up over the mountains to the east, and the calm, glassy water of Glorietta Bay. I like the quiet time before the day gets rolling. I enjoy watching the kids learning to sail in their “Sabots” and the beginning of the Wednesday and Friday races, as captains jockey for position at the start line. It can get a bit crazy down at B-18! I like the quiet time of a starry night at the end of the day and the ebb and flow of the tide. All these things help me realize that it’s good to consider the little things, as well as the larger things that capture our time every day.

I hope the rest of the summer season is all that you hope for and that you get the chance to take some time to pay attention to the “little things” that can bring joy and peace to your lives. Take a bit of time to say “Thank You” to the One who created it all, the big things and the little things. I’ll leave you with the words of King David when he wrote in Psalm 8:3-9, “When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have ordained, what is man that You are mindful of him, and the son of man that You visit him? For You have made him a little lower than the angels and You have crowned him with glory and honor. You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet, all sheep and oxen, even the beasts of the field, the birds of the air, and the fish of the sea that pass through the paths of the seas. O Lord how excellent is Your name in all the earth!” What else could I possibly say? Be kind to one another, take care of one another, and love one another.

May you have fair winds and following seas!...... Chaplain, out!

The Kitty Muhl Ladies Day Regatta encountered 30+ winds and will be re-sailed Sunday August 14.

A Race Like No Other … the 2016 Kitty Muhl By Sail Fleet Captain Sue Welch

The 2016 Kitty Muhl Ladies Day Race was an event like no other. From around 10 AM when the fog began to roll in from the ocean in deep, dark sheets, I asked around the club if we should consider a postponement for the start of the race. “Nah” was the consention; “This will clear up shortly. It’s been so hot.” It had been the warmest couple of days of the summer, until Saturday, July 23. But when the fog rolled in, so did the wind. . . . .

Six boats, and a new start line; it was a little crowded at Glorietta Bay’s dog leg turn at the GBI 8 bouy. The boats worked their way up and down the straightaway heading to the channel. It was a pursuit start, so each boat had a start time of their own, and all we had to do was sail across the start line at the appointed time and not be early. Normally not a daunting task at all, but this time in the gloom of the fog, the wind arrived as well and finding favorable conditions of humidity and barometric pressure, the wind intensified to just above 30 knots in gusts.

I thought that the wind would calm once we got to the bridge and began to work our way to bouy 30, but the opposite actually happened. And when my mainsail tore, we still tried to sail on, but in absolute nano seconds, and another large gust of wind tore the jib sail, my crew quickly tried to just salvage the boat and get back to the marina. In seconds, we had gone from second place to out of control. The sheets had become fouled around the life lines, sails were down, boom was down and draped across the aft deck, lines were tangled everywhere and I was literally sick to my stomach. It wasn’t until we actually tied up at the dock that I found out every single one of the six boats in the race had returned to port and had abandoned the race. Hopefully, we will all race again August 14.

There is actually really good news that has come of this and that is: Nobody on any of our boats was hurt. Nobody. Having lived through it, I can write that it’s amazing because if ever there was a day when somebody could have been hurt, July 23, 2016 was it. But the boat gods were with us, and nobody got hurt.

Kitty Muhl herself must’ve been watching. And Glenn gets new sails. Page 15 Page 16 ADULT SAILING PROGRAM AT CYC
