July 2020 North East River Yacht Club Follow Us On Waterline July 2020 North East River Yacht Club www.neryc.com Follow us on 1 Commodore’s Letter Dear NERYC Members, As I write this, we are steadily approaching a feeling at the club of beginning to get back to normal, or at least a new normal for the time being. While I am filled with optimism for where we are today, there are always a few concerns that temper that feeling. In any organization, It is normal to have these ups and downs especially given the circumstances with Covid 19. I would like to thank the board and the team of volunteers who are always so willing to give of their time and have proven time and again to be resourceful problem solvers. There are so many ways that we may all be proud of our club: NERYC held the first CBYRA sanctioned race on the bay in 2020, with our invitational on June 6th. We were delighted to see 32 boats attend what turned out to be a great day of racing. After a delayed start, due to lack of wind, we waited and then were rewarded with great conditions. Thanks go to Wes Diesel for organizing the race, to Mike Wagner and Julie Cottage for officiating, and to Jack Kemery for providing the race committee boat. NERYC has a full marina and a waiting list for boats. We also had 6 new members approved at the June board meeting. This is just brilliant! Thank you to Rick Hanson and Judy Murray for their tireless work here. NERYC is holding a limited junior sail program this Summer. We are one of only a few clubs on the Chesapeake Bay to do this. Many thanks to Sharlene Wilkins, Julie Cottage and Mike Wagner, for their passion, incredible hard work and creativity to get this to happen. NERYC held our first soft opening of the restaurant and bar on June 19th. Despite the initial downpours, it was a tremendous success. It was great to see so many members attend and thanks go to Brandon Bush and Alex Razzook, for their great foresight and imagination in safely organizing this event. Thanks also to the volunteers who helped to facilitate this. Rick, Sue, and Kyle Hanson, and Dave Brzezowski. We will be needing more member volunteers to help with future events. The blue cottage has been transformed. You may have seen a lot of industry going on at the blue cottage in recent weeks. With the help of many volunteers, and the leadership of Elaine Walsh, many improvements have been made. The blue cottage is now ready for a new tenant. Thank you to everyone who has helped out with this project. You can see that NERYC is an amazing place to be. It takes the effort and enthusiasm of many volunteers but look at what we have been able to achieve, particularly in the era of Covid 19. We are doing well and are in a good position, better than expected in these difficult times, but we still have some difficult challenges ahead. There are continuous efforts needed to maintain and improve the facilities at our club. Recently we have been plagued with a host of, more than usual, equipment failure in the kitchen and club house. Our restaurant and junior sail revenues are obviously down significantly on where they typically would be due to Covid 19 and we are still carrying legacy debt from prior years. We will continue to address all of these issues going forward and keep you all updated on our plans and strategy. How can you help? In small ways: If you see something that needs to be done, weeds that need to be pulled, cobwebs brushed away, pots watered, please feel free to step in. Many hands make light work. In large ways: We always need volunteers for all of our initiatives and work days. We would also appreciate your continued support of our restaurant as a patron and volunteer waitstaff in the weeks ahead. I look forward to seeing you at the annual July 4th celebration picnic, organized by Dave Brzezowski, on July 3rd. I end this letter on a very sad note. Many of us are heartbroken about the passing of our beloved member John Sergeant. He was considered a Patriarch of our club for so long. He will be sorely missed but never forgotten. Our sympathies go to Jan Sergeant and her family at this time. Sincerely, Matt Sheldrick Commodore NERYC, 610 757 5023 2 Our friend and chaplain John Sergeant, lost to us way too soon. Photo taken June 19 2020 3 IPC Letter Like many of you, this club is special to me, and my family. We are a club that offers many unique qualities to our membership. NERYC’s most important quality is that we are friends and boaters who enjoy life along the North East River and the Chesapeake Bay. Some members are here for the waterfront, offering floating docks and easy access to the bay. Other members are here for the Restaurant and Burgee, offering a place to break bread, have a drink (or two) and provide for social interaction. Other members are here for our outstanding junior sail camp program and trophy winning Bay Racer team, teaching our kids the sport of yachting and a love and respect for the water. And other members are simply here for the beautiful sunsets. Regardless of your reasons for being a member at NERYC, it is our collective responsibility to assure that our club is operating in a responsible manner. And this responsibility falls on the shoulders of the entire membership. This is your club. As members, we are volunteers, we do our best to keep the doors open and lights on, to keep the grounds in tip top shape, to keep docks afloat, pay our bills, maintain our insurance and provide a healthy calendar of events and activities. Call to action for volunteers to join our Board of Governors and Committees. It’s nomination time!!!!! We need you to continue the tradition of volunteer supported leadership. 2020 Board of Governors and Committee Chairpersons: Commodore – Matt Sheldrick Vice Commodore – Dave Brzezowski Rear Commodore – Claire Brechter Fleet Captain – Glenn Davis Administrator – Barb Luloff Secretary – Cecil Keenan Treasurer – Christopher Reno Finance – Judy Herman Restaurant Chair – Alex Razzook Membership Chair – Judy Murray Building and Grounds – Elaine Walsh Sail Program Chair – Julie Cottage Dock Master – Rick Hanson Immediate Past Commodore (IPC) – Brian Fuchs The Board of Governors and Chairpersons are the champions of those committees listed below, there are needs for additional members to assist in the day to day operations of the club. For that matter we have a list of Committees that we need your assistance. Maybe there is a subject in which you have experience or can lend some support…….some of these are filled, some are not. Regardless we always need support and need to reposition or fill roles with new energy and expertise. Nominating Committee Publicity Committee Administration Committee Restaurant Committee 4 Finance Committee Marketing Committee House Committee Legal Committee Entertainment Committee Sail Program Committee Roster Committee Piers and Moorings Committee Assistant Fleet Captain Long Range Planning Committee By-Laws Committee Procedures Committee Waterline Editor Ship’s Store Supply Officer CBYCA Delegate Club Chaplain Email Net Coordinator Internet Web Master Club Safety Officer Club Parliamentarian Year over year, we have to fill the Bridge Officer role of Fleet Captain, which then works their way up the ranks to Commodore. While this might seem like a daunting role and time commitment. The Bridge Officer commitment is a tremendous experience. I personally have gained an appreciation for the work hard of my fellow members, the support and dedication of past officers and committee members and benefited from the friendships of all members. Please call or email me to discuss the many roles we have to offer at our club. The Nomination Committee will be holding court shortly to discuss your role in our club. Thank You, Brian Fuchs, Immediate Past Commodore, NERYC [email protected], 610-733-4078 What gets our members super excited??? A snake! Cliff Shaw’s email and photo generated more reply emails than any other topic in recent memory. Consensus: Water snake (but some members were concerned it was a copperhead) This was the best response: Hi. Had to comment. It is most likely a common black snake. We had them actually climb onto our boat and cozy up in the engine well and come out one night into the cockpit while we were on the hook. Let’s just say, it was a very scary experience. Jim threw it overboard and the darn thing swam back. They can swim very well. They’re harmless, but they’re big and they like to go up under docks and sun themselves. Ours had apparently decided that our big wide deck was a lovely place to sun himself and sleep in our wheel well. Our experience is FUNNY now, it was not funny then.

  • Vyc Yardsticks
    Yachting Victoria Inc ABN 26 176 852 642 2 / 77 Beach Road SANDRINGHAM VIC 3191 Tel 03 9597 0066 Fax 03 9598 7384 YACHTING VICTORIA YARDSTICKS - 2013-14 Date: 1st Oct 2013 Version: 1.0 INTRODUCTION These yardsticks are prepared to provide the fairest possible calculation of results for mixed fleet racing. New and modified classes appear every year and it is important to gather information and review results as quickly as possible. For dinghy classes there have been no changes to the original Yardsticks published for the 2013/14 season, as results for review have not been forthcoming. In the absence of race results data for dinghy classes and new internationally sourced classes, where there is yardstick data from overseas available, a comparison is made with other international classes to derive an equivalent Yachting Victoria yardstick value. This is explained further down in this document. Fortunately for catamaran classes, there has been significant work done by the Kurnell Catamaran Club in reviewing various catamaran ratings, as well as validating the ratings against the international SCHRS system. This work has now been incorporated into the YV yardsticks for catamaran classes. Much appreciation goes to KCC for this good work. Catamaran yardsticks are now contained in a separate document: “YV - Cat Yardsticks13_14 v1.0” USE OF THE YV YARDSTICKS A club which intends to run a race or event under the Yachting Victoria Yardstick system should include in the Notice of Race and in the Sailing Instructions clauses based on the following: 1 The version of the YV Yardstick System that is to be used in calculating the mixed class fleet racing results.

  • Portsmouth Number List 2016
    Portsmouth Number List 2016 The RYA Portsmouth Yardstick Scheme is provided to enable clubs to allow boats of different classes to race against each other fairly. The RYA actively encourages clubs to adjust handicaps where classes are either under or over performing compared to the number being used. The Portsmouth Yardstick list combines the Portsmouth numbers with class configuration and the total number of races returned to the RYA in the annual return. This additional data has been provided to help clubs achieve the stated aims of the Portsmouth Yardstick system and make adjustments to Portsmouth Numbers where necessary. Clubs using the PN list should be aware that the list is based on the typical performance of each boat across a variety of clubs and locations. Experimental numbers are based on fewer returns and are to be used as a guide for clubs to allocate as a starting number before reviewing and adjusting where necessary. The list of experimental Portsmouth Numbers will be periodically reviewed by the RYA and is based on data received from the PY Online website (www.pys.org.uk). Users of the PY scheme are reminded that all Portsmouth Numbers published by the RYA should be regarded as a guide only. The RYA list is not definitive and clubs should adjust where necessary.

  • Area's #1 Fishing & Hunting Outfitter
    Dear Angler: Here in Maryland, we need only look to our State Seal — depicting the fisherman and the ploughman — for proof that fishing really is part of our heritage. It’s a fun, affordable and accessible activity for all ages, and a great excuse to get our children away from video and computer games and into the great outdoors! Approximately 700,000 adults and thousands of young people fish each year in Maryland, with an estimated annual impact of $1 billion on our economy. Gov. Martin O’Malley and Sec. John R. Griffin More than a third of our anglers visit from out of state, testimony to the value and quality of our great fishing resources. We are very fortunate to have expert biologists and managers – working to- gether with our Sport Fisheries, Tidal Fisheries and Oyster Advisory Commissions, and our Coastal Fisheries Advisory Committee, to guide fisheries management across our State. We are also very fortunate to have you -- committed conserva- tionists and advocates – working with us. Your license revenues support protection and enhancement of Maryland’s fishery resources, research and management activities, expanded public access and enhanced law enforcement. And we look forward to strengthening our partnership with you as we work toward our goals for a restored Chesapeake Bay, thriving freshwater streams, and healthy abundant fish populations. Thank you for being a part of a great cultural tradition, and here’s wishing you a terrific year of fishing in Maryland. Martin O’Malley John R. Griffin Governor Secretary About the Cover: This edition of the Maryland Fishing Guide is dedicated to Frances McFaden, who retired from public service after 43 years as a steadfast, ever-helpful, and resourceful Maryland state worker.

  • 2017-2020 Class Rules
    2017-2020 CLASS RULES (Revised 1 January 2017) INTERNATIONAL HOBIE CLASS ASSOCIATION 2017-2020 CLASS RULES (Changes compared to the previous edition are marked with yellow) INTRODUCTION For some sailors, Hobie racing is about competition and the exhilaration of winning (or losing) fair- ly. For others, it’s the challenge, excitement, concentration and physical exertion. But for the vast majority of Hobie sailors, it’s about fun, camaraderie, familiar places, new places, old friends and new, and memories of fun times with people who share a love of the sport. Like any worthwhile activity in life, there is a right way and a wrong way to participate in Hobie sailing. The Hobie Class Rules set forth in this booklet, and the World Sailing Racing Rules of Sailing (RRS) as distributed by your National Sailing Federation, are your guidelines to the right way to race … the Hobie way. The rules of sailing are designed to allow all of us to compete fiercely and fairly with each other on a level sea. The rules are important for all sailors, but particularly so for one-design Hobie Cat sailors. Each of us has a basic responsibility to be familiar with the rules. Read them, accept them and abide by them—and we’ll all have more FUN. Be proud of your Class! Participate and become friendly with your Hobie competitors! Share your experiences and good times on and off the water with every new Hobie sailor you meet! Welcome to the Hobie Way of Life! We wish you fair winds and many happy days of great sailing.
