PRESIDENT and EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR’S REPORT By Todd Irving and Al Will, Executive Director

OntarioSailing.ca The launch of our new logo and move to a more intuitive name of Ontario Sailing from OSA has progressed well. In order to keep our homepage fresh we set targets for updates twice a week on Mondays & Thursdays. Most weeks we have hit our targets.

On-line Registration Our on-line registration for Instructor Development Programs was launched in Spring 2005 and ran smoothly. More onus is put on candidates in terms of pre-requisites with all information hosted on our website. A successful registrant automatically has the detailed confirmation package e-mailed to them. On-line registration for regattas was implemented in June, unfortunately too late to get a lot of buy-in particularly from host clubs. A lot of work is being done to get host club buy-in before we assign Ontario Sailing title events. We are currently developing LearnToSail.ca to be launched at the January Boat Show, and we will announce CrewBank.ca at the sale time for a Launch in April 2006.

BOOM, Access BOOM and Safe Sailing In Camps Mobiles: 2005 was another busy summer across the Province plus a trip for Access BOOM to Cape Breton NS. Although we are always pleased with out safety record with sailors and staff, one of the high- lights of the summer was no accident to vans or trailers, not something we can say most summers! We have completed year three of our Safe Sailing in Camps program. Thank you to Ontario Trillium Foundation and our other sponsors for their support of this program. To date, just under 27,000 participants have gone through the BOOM programs. Our thanks to Eric Cartlidge, Pro- gram Director for his leadership of these programs.

Officials Training & Volunteers: A big THANK YOU to all the volunteers that participate on the front line in hosting sailing events. Thanks also to committee members involved with the Appeals Committee, Race Management Committee, Regatta Management and Officials Certification. This year volunteers spent a lot of time updating out Regatta Hosting Package – thank you. Thank you to Committee Chairs & Project leaders: Regatta Chair - Irene McNeill Judges Certification – Lynne Beal Race Management Chair - John Weakley Appeals Committee – Alex McAuley Regatta Hosting – David Lewis

Staff Changes: In 2005 we saw Sandra Johnson, Secretary & Database Administrator, Megan Will, Program Director and Alex Himmelman, Program Director all move onto new careers. We welcome new staff in Eric Cartlidge, Program Director, Rebecca Benson, Communications Coordinator and Shauna Cartlidge as Secretary and Fund Raising Assistant to our staff team. Barb Ar- seneault was on long-term sick leave most of the year.

Athlete Development: Our congratulations to all of the sailors that participated in Ontario Sailing events, and especially our top sailors who represented Ontario Sailing so well at the Canada Summers Games and the CYA Youth Championships.

Fundraising & Marketing Committees: To bring focus to both of these important mandates we found a format of back-to-back committee meetings that worked well in 2005. Thank you to the Committee Chairs Erin Sinyard, Fundraising & Tim Bishop, Marketing for their leadership and thanks to all the volunteers involved.

Financial Support: in 2005 a new Ministry was created and our major funders is now the Ministry of Health Promotion. How we apply for grants has changed and been divided into more categories but we continue to receives great support from our Provincial Government. Thanks to Scott Copper our Sport Consultant for being so helpful. Sailing is ranked 4th sport overall out of some 54 funded sports.

Canadian Yachting Association: Todd joined the Board of Directors of CYA representing Ontario Sailing this year. Ontario Sailing Past Presidents continue to play major roles at CYA. David Sprague Chaired the Nominating Committee and is a member of ISAF. Ron Kobrick, is VP-Racing and Jim Dike is VP-Administration. Michael Vollmer is a Director responsible for Government Relations. CYA welcomed Tim Brown as their new Executive Director in October. Al was involved in two days of training with CYA on their Long Term Athlete Development Model, and worked with Tim Brown on securing a new sponsorship for CYA with Mercury Marine.

Representing our Members: Todd gave leadership to gathering keelboat regatta organizers to start a coordinated regatta schedule. Todd also represents Ontario Sailing on the Council of Commodores, as well as being very involved in the J24 Canadian Class Association as President. This past year Jim Dike, Past President represented our members with his work of the Recrea- tional Boating and Tourism Technical Working Group of the Water Levels Study for Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence River, a project of the International Joint Commission (IJC). Al did similar duty as a member of the Public Interest Advisory Group and the liaison to the Recreational Boating technical working group. The changes in staff at Ontario Sailing forced Al to stay a little closer to home and retired from the following positions: Chair of the Ontario Recreational Boating Advisory Council to Transport Canada, Ontario representative to the National Recreational Boating Advisory Council, Secretary of the Canadian Safe Boating Council, Transport Canada review task force of the Safe Boating Guide, and in January 2006 will retire as an Advisor of the Ontario Boating Forum. Al continues to be involved with the Georgian Bay Biosphere, Community AIR, PRO/SAO Sport Volunteer Project, and the CYA Website Advisory Committee. Roger Shaw, Ivan Lavine and Brian Knoll also represent us on various committees concerning the Toronto Waterfront, Waterfront Planning, The Toronto Port Authority and City Centre Airport. 5

PRESIDENT and EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR’S REPORT (cont’d)

Retiring Directors and Volunteers: Alex McAuley: Alex will step down as Chair of the Appeals Committee at this AGM. Alex’s name appears in Ontario Sailing Annual Reports back in 1986 and consistently throughout the 19 years. Some years with Judges Certification, some years linked to Ap- peals and many years in both places. Our reports do not track the hundreds of events that he has served at throughout the world. Although stepping down as Chair, we expect that he will continue to be involved at a front line volunteer.

Susan (Banbury) Irving: Susan joined the Board in 2003 and has given Leadership to the Athlete Development Committee throughout her 3 years of service. During her term we saw the creation of the Ontario Sailing Regional Coaching (OSARC) program, now operating as of High Performance program.

Ivan Lavine: Ivan joined the Board in 2002 as the Treasurer a position he has held throughout his 4-year term. Ivan has reviewed statements on a monthly basis and reported regularly to the Board and Executive interpreting our financial position throughout the year. Ivan was a great contributor at the Board table voicing opinions on all matters of business.

Al Ouellette: Al joined the Board in 2004. Al is an active sailing Dad and spends time in the summer traveling to various events with sailors from Sarnia Yacht Club. Al brought that important perspective to the table.

TREASURER’S REPORT From Ivan Lavine, Treasurer The audited financial statements of the Ontario Sailing Association for its year ended March 31, 2005 will be available at the An- nual General meeting and have been posted on our website since December 1st, 2005. Although we are now into January 2006 these financial statements cover mainly the operations for the spring, summer and fall of 2004, and our winter training program January to March 2005.

While the association experienced a modest loss from operations for the year of $4,925, I am pleased that we were substantially better than the year before when we experienced a loss of $19,011. Together with our insurance agents, we have a difficult task tracking our insurance costs with the carriers as we are constantly adding and subtracting rental vehicles from our policy, therefore at year end an unexpected adjustment put us in a slight deficit position.

Because many of the programs run by the association are interrelated it is sometimes difficult to accurately allocate certain expenses properly. This year, we have allocated the administrative expenses on a similar basis as the year before for comparability. While it is not a perfect allocation, we are trying to refine this effort each year.

On a total comparative basis we were able to increase our revenues to $969,118. This is an increase of $146,483 from the year before. On the other hand, we also increased our expenses to $974,113. This was also an increase of $132,397.

The association has a number of programs that occur on a regular basis each year. These programs are usually funded from long standing sources on a continuing basis. These sources of funds have their own budgets and sometimes our expectations are ful- filled and sometimes we are caught short. When we experience a surplus of funds we either expand existing programs or create others. If we have a shortfall of funds we often have a time delay in restructuring our programs to offset the reduction in funds.

To a certain extent we are playing a balancing game that our Executive Director, Al Will, does very well.

As Treasurer of Ontario Sailing I would like to personally express my appreciation to the Ontario Ministry of Tourism and Recrea- tion, the Ministry of Health Promotion and all the sponsors and donors who assisted us this past year.

APPEALS COMMITTEE REPORT From Alex McAuley, Chairperson

The Ontario Sailing Appeals Committee’s job is to answer appeals submitted by competitors who have been party to a protest hearing and are unsatisfied with the protest result and/or hearing decision. Appeals can only be submitted by parties to the protest hearing and are usually filed against a rule interpretation and/or procedural mistake by the protest committee.

The Appeals Committee from time to time decides to return the appealed protest for a re-hearing and we usually include one of our certified judges from the area to conduct the hearing. This has a two-fold benefit to the club involved as they not only get the protest in question reheard but it usually ends up as a training session for all involved and everyone gains by the process.

In 2005 the Appeals Committee heard and/or dealt with 6 appeals. This is not a high number of appeals, so we can assume that the competitors are taking the Alternate Penalty route rather than be involving protesting each other??? This is also the first time we have received appeals concerning RRS 42 Propulsion. We have noticed that in the off-season more clubs are scheduling rules seminars as well as racing seminars. This keeps everyone’s interested in our sport. But remember, sailing is also a self-policing sport that you should enjoy, so let’s all follow the rules and keep it that way.

We have an excellent group of experienced judges on the Ontario Sailing Appeals Committee and great Ontario Sailing staff and I thank them on your behalf. We are changing around our committee in 2006 and Andrew Alberti -RCYC- a Sr. Can Judge & Sr. Can. Umpire will be taking over as Chairman of the Ontario Sailing Appeals committee. The total of the committee will remain as is.

Members: Alex J. McAuley IJ/SCU –Chair; Andrew Alberti SCJ/SCU; Dr. Andrew Wardle IJ/IU; Dr. Mel Preston SCJ; Kathy Dyer SCJ; Peter Wood SCJ; Shauna Cartlidge– OS Appeals Coordinator

MARKETING COMMITTEE REPORT From Tim Bishop, Chairperson

With beautiful weather for the summer of 2005, Ontario Sailing was busy promoting the sport. In order to attract new participants, Ontario Sailing had a marketing presence at many sport and other key events in 2005 to increase our exposure. In order to better service our current members, communication was a key focus to connect people with information they need. Moving forward, On- tario Sailing is making further updates to assist sailors and promote our great sport to others.

Many key accomplishments were made in 2005 and we’re gearing up for 2006. Three main objectives were focused on and are highlighted here: 1. Increased exposure for the sport and making more connections with people: ▫Sailing simulator featured at the Toronto Boat Show in January. Everyone from Olympians to hundreds of new participants tried sailing in a fun, controlled setting. ▫Sailing demonstrations and lessons at the Toronto In-Water Boat Show in September. A packed weekend schedule allowed for attendees to experience sailing for the first time in a safe environment with a trained coach ▫Annual events such as these will continue to be attended next year in order to reach more people and let people know about sailing in Ontario 2. Increased communication with our constituents via OntarioSailing.ca: ▫Redesigned web site launched at Toronto International Boat Show in early 2005. Regular, bi-weekly news and event updates posted on the new website. Fast and easy access to information and resources has allowed staff to focus efforts on other important priorities ▫Further changes are underway for early 2006 with an opportunity to provide more information to users while improving navigation. LearnToSail.ca will launch in early 2006 to guide new sailors to relevant services and resources. CrewBank.ca will also launch allowing greater contacts with and among Ontario’s sailing members 3. Understanding our customer better and providing more value: ▫Informative update from industry leader, John Kerr, on latest sport market trends and growth opportunities to better connect with more constituents. Better communication with sailors means more opportunities to engage and offer further services ▫Online registration has allowed users to register for services and training. Select Provincial Title Event regattas had a test-launch in 2005 and are now ready for full implementation in 2006. Athlete and Coach development registration model helps manage large course registration loads with less data processing by staff.

Ontario Sailing is better able to service its constituents and has successfully reached out to more people as a result of the efforts of 2005. We are moving forward and looking for more people to help contribute to the success of sailing in Ontario. Please contact Ontario Sailing at OntarioSailing.ca for more details and to get involved.

Enjoy the 2006 sailing season and challenge yourself – how many times can you go sailing in 2006? 12

Collaboration continues with the CYA Judges Programme, with two members of the Ontario Sailing Judge Certification Com- mittee also sitting on the CYA Judges Committee. 13

FUNDRAISING COMMITTEE REPORT From Erin Sinyard, Chairperson

As has been the case for the past number of years, Ontario Sailing has been focused on fundraising efforts over the past year to ensure that we can continue to develop and deliver programs that foster interest in sailing and promote and encourage proficiency in the sport, particularly among young people.

Through the individual donor campaign, we target users of the organization including Race Officials, Instructors, Athletes, Boom participants and Learn to Cruise students. We believe that the individuals that have been involved with Ontario Sailing over the years and have benefited from Ontario Sailing’s programs will use this as an opportunity to give something back and offer continued support to Ontario Sailing. The individual donor campaign takes place during the fall each year. In 2004-2005 we raised $11,587 in the individual donor campaign. This year, 100 letters have been sent and as of December 6, 2005 the results have been very encouraging. We have targeted the 2005/2006 individual donor campaigns to raise $12,630. This will represent a 9% increase over prior year.

We have also recently launched our 2005 corporate membership campaign. Membership provides a company with website exposure, listing in the yearbook and member only referral benefits.

A number of the programs offered by Ontario Sailing, such as Safe Sailing in Camps, the Ontario Sailing Team and Learn To Cruise Student Registration have program sponsors. The companies that sponsor these programs understand the importance of supporting Ontario Sailing in its efforts to promote sailing at all levels in the Province. Without these sponsors, many of the programs we offer may not be able to operate at full capacity. We are grateful for the continued support these companies provide.

We are extremely pleased that Ontario Sailing has been selected for the 7th year in a row as one of the organizations to benefit from the NMMA’s Boating for Children’s Charity event held at the Toronto International boat show. We are grateful for their continued support. Last year, our Celebration of Sail, which honoured Ontario Sailing Olympians and Paralympians, was a huge success. This year, we have chosen the theme Celebrate our Youth. The event is scheduled for March 4, 2006 at Ashbridges Bay Yacht Club. I encourage you to contact Shauna at Ontario Sailing to find out more or to purchase tickets for this year’s event.

Many of our member clubs have stocked our private label ‘Regatta’ wine in their clubs and the wine has been featured at many different events throughout the year. It is available for purchase on line at www.peleeisland.com. Ontario Sailing benefits from every bottle sold. This year, we are continuing to work on getting this wine into our member clubs. It is a great opportunity to support Ontario Sailing.

As we move into 2006-2007 I think it is important for Ontario Sailing to look for opportunities to partner with various organizations. As well, I believe there is potential to generate new revenues by considering advertising alternatives available to us through our web site. We are committed to evaluating these options as we continue to look for innovative ways to increase revenues.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank the staff at Ontario Sailing and all of the volunteers for their efforts this past year. Fundraising requires a considerable amount of staff and volunteer time and we are fortunate to have dedicated staff and volunteers to assist us in our efforts. In addition to the individuals and corporations that continue to support Ontario Sailing and its initiatives..…. THANK YOU!

LEARN TO SAIL COMMITTEE REPORT From Kim Case, Chairperson and Amy Goman, Program Director

During the 2005 season, 366 instructors were trained at a number of different clinics. We had 13 host sites, and were pleased that a few of these represented new sites for our instructor clinics. In Ontario, 3 new Instructor Evaluators and 2 re-certified Instructor Evaluators were trained at the annual clinic, held this year at the Royal Vancouver Yacht Club. Below are the numbers of instructors trained at each level for 2005.

Ontario Sailing is working on the development of a new learn to sail website. This website, www.LearnToSail.ca, will be available for sailors, instructors, and coaches to access. It will contain information regarding training in the province, along with information for instructors wishing to progress through the levels offered by the Canadian Yachting Association.

This fall, Ontario Sailing held a sold out Learn to Sail Symposium, with 60 present, for Instructors, coaches and club directors. This one-day informative session provided information for clubs on hiring instructors, fundraising, season planning, boat selection, able sail information and more! Please plan to attend our session next year to share information with others, and learn more about running an effective sailing program.

Each year, numerous instructors are trained through our Instructor Development clinics. These clinics would not be possible without the expertise and commitment of our Instructor Evaluators. Ontario Sailing Instructor Evaluators are highly trained and certified individuals who are committed to improving the quality of sailing in Canada. Ontario’s roster of professional Instructor Evaluators includes:

Will Abbott Kirk Cavell Amanda Gibson Lennie Liscio Owen Bird Cody Cote Amy Goman Rob Lytle Tim Bishop Steve Cutting Iain Greensmith Karen May Cyrus Boadway Nathan Dayler Ryan May Darin McRae Kim Case Graham Fraser Jeremy Kennedy Lynn McRae Anton Mihic Tim Searle Kate Thompson Erin Ross Charlie Rishor Lara Smythe Cam Watt Mike Weber

All instructors must pay their annual CYA instructor dues, plus complete any necessary pre-requisites before they are fully certified. Annual dues are valid from January 1 – December 31 each year. Please ensure prompt payment for the upcoming season! Not all fully certified and insured instructors will be listed on the CYA website: www.sailing.ca, due to the new privacy act, please ask your instructors at your club for their instructor card or other proof of insurance and certification.

Ontario Sailing looks forward to continuing training for instructors, coaches and sailors in 2006. The Instructor Clinic schedule and registration form is available on the Ontario Sailing website at www.ontariosailing.ca.

LEARN TO CRUISE and POWER COMMITTEE REPORT From Craig Pattinson, Chairperson and Eric Cartlidge, Program Director

2005 was a “quiet” year with most activity focused around administrative activities. As a result much work fell to Jamie Gordon in relation to both local and national matters. I would like to recognize the ongoing commitment and effort of Jamie who is an invaluable resource within the Learn to Cruise system.

Ontario Learn To Cruise Instructors: This year we had an increase in the total number of instructors trained in the province, with a significant increase in the number of Basic Cruising Instructors trained. This shows that there is an increase in the boating knowledge on the water with a desire to pass it on to others. Hopefully this trend will continue creating safe waterways for everyone.

Cruising: New Candidates & 2005 2004 Recertifications Basic Cruising 26 16 Intermediate Cruising 2 4 Advanced Cruising 1 2

IE’s: New & Recertifications Basic Cruising 6 6 Power 4 0

Power: New & Cross-Over Basic Power 3 6

42 34

Ontario Learn To Cruise Student Registrations: In the fourth year of the Student Registration Program, the overall participation numbers fell slightly but this masks some positive changes. Participant breakdown was as follows: 2005 2004 2003 (01/01/05 – 12/08/05) (04/01/04 – 12/03/04) (04/01/03 – 03/31/04) Basic Cruising 686 661 675 Intermediate Cruising 121 109 95 Advanced Cruising 21 11 6 Coastal Navigation 95 113 50 Basic Crew 41 43 7 Basic Power 30 63 82 Basic Outboard 0 7 8 Intermediate Crew 0 0 1 Celestial Navigation 8 5 Total 1002 1012 924 The Basic Cruising category continued to increase rising to 686 from 661. Intermediate Cruising rose significantly as did Ad- vanced Cruising with 21 candidates, which perhaps reflects the fact that the growing trend at the entry level is flowing through to more advanced certification levels over time. The dip in the overall numbers can be attributed directly to Basic Power which fell from 63 to 30 year on year. This is perhaps due to the trail off from the launch of the Pleasure Craft Operators Card. If this is the case there will hopefully be a rebound as the 2009 deadline approaches for all boaters.

Angus Yachts of Toronto were once again kind sponsors of the Learn to Cruise registration program and we look forward to continued participation in 2006.

Staff changes at Ontario Sailing resulted in a reallocation of responsibilities. We have a new Learn to Cruise staff representative, Eric Cartlidge. My interaction with Eric to date has been very positive and I look forward to working with him as we move forward. Amy now has different responsibilities within Ontario Sailing. We would like to thank Amy for her help and assistance during the year and wish her well in her new role.

We are very fortunate to work with such a dedicated friendly staff. Remember to say thanks the next time you are on the phone with any of these great people!

BOOM PROGRAM REPORT From Eric Cartlidge, Program Director

The BOOM Mobiles had another successful year in 2005. This year 495 people participated in a BOOM Mobile, which is up slightly from 2004. Ontario Sailing operated three Mobiles this summer, two that offered BOOM, and one that offered a combina- tion of Access BOOM and our new Instructor only mobile. In total our three mobiles visited 19 different sites, some for 2 weeks and 3 weeks at a time. The BOOM Program at a Glance 2005 2004 2003 2002 2001 Number of Mobiles 3 3 3 4 4 Number of Participants 495 (479) 485 (399) 381 (332) 578 (469) 528 Number of Sites Visited 19 (17) 20 (17) 22 (19) 23 (20) 26 Number of New Boats for 3 2 8 8 15 Mobiles *This spring our Access BOOM Mobile spent two weeks outside of Ontario, the numbers in brackets represent totals not including the out of province sites. Mobiles – As you can see from the chart above, the number of participants in the program is steadily increasing from year to year. As more and more hosts sign up for BOOM Programs, the variety of programming style increases. Some clubs offer the program to 16 participants all day and some offer the program to 32 participants for half a day.

This summer four BOOM sites hosted one of our BOOM Mobiles for two consecutive weeks, and one site hosted a mobile for three consecutive weeks. The two/three-week format helps to reduce wear on the equipment, reduce travel expenses and it also gives students an opportunity to work on more advanced sailing skills. As a result the instructors receive a break from traveling every week. However the multi-week program is not feasible or appropriate for all sites.

Of the 19 sites visited, 15 of them hosted one of the BOOM mobiles in 2004 showing that the program is still slowly growing, however, it is also leaving a lasting impression for repeat clientele. This year the BOOM Program sold out by the beginning of January and the Access BOOM by the end of March, thus showing that the demand for the program remains high. Once again the Access BOOM Program traveled out East and spent two weeks in Cape Breton helping promote accessible sailing on the east coast.

Equipment - This spring we purchased a new coach boat for one of our mobiles, as well as two new Laser Pico Dinghies for the BOOM Mobile. This summer most of the boats on the Mobiles were between one and five years old, however some of the 2000 Mangos are starting to show their age. This year we spent money to purchase four new sails for our Mangos, and a couple of new Mango and Pico rudders and rudder heads. The plan is to operate two BOOM Mobiles and one Access BOOM/BOOM without Boats in 2006. We recommend that we continue the phasing out of the Escape Mangos and continue replenishing them with Laser Picos. With the 6 remaining Mangos we recommend that we sell 3 this year and 3 next year. Therefore purchasing 3 Laser Picos this year and 3 Laser Picos next year.

The Access Dinghy’s are also starting to show their age, and with a revision of our boat loan/lease program we will keep four Ac- cess 2.3’s for the Access BOOM mobile and a 2.3 and 303 for each of the Demo and Loan/Lease programs and sell two 2.3’s and one 303. Participants – Again this year the Mobiles ran for eight weeks with the exception of the Access BOOM, which ran for 9 weeks. The program ran from 9:00am - 4:00pm Monday to Friday. Once again the adult evening classes running from 6:00pm – 9:00pm were a huge success and attracted over 40 participants.

Host Sites – Ontario Sailing would like to thank all the host sites for their continued support and commitment to the BOOM/Access BOOM Programs in 2005.

WOMEN SAILORS’ ASSOCIATION REPORT From Donna Scott, President The Women Sailors’ Association - “a network through which women can learn and participate in all aspects of sailing”. Again this year, through the period October to May evening dinner meetings with guest speakers and our on the water activities May to Sep- tember, there were plenty of opportunities for women who have a common interest in sailing to meet and learn from each other.

The annual tradition just prior to the start of the racing season of an evening devoted to a race training session including an in- depth review of the racing rules was most appreciated by all active racing members.

In addition to the Women’s Monday Night Racing Series organized under the National Yacht Club umbrella, there was the To- ronto Area Women’s Keelboat (T.A.W.K.) Series, an Ontario Sailing sanctioned event of 4 races ran concurrently with the Women’s Monday Night Racing series and was scored separately. To encourage participation this year, all participants in the Monday Night Racing Series were automatically registered for the 2005 T.A.W.K series. Given weather conditions this past summer, each race presented different challenges and in final analysis Ontario Sailing medals were presented to the following: 1st` OS Gold Rhum Punch Pat McRae Etobicoke Yacht Club 2nd OS Silver Doppler Shift Nona Johnstone National Yacht Club 3rd OS Bronze After You Judy Stevens National Yacht Club

Again this year, Port Credit Yacht Club hosted the Ontario Women’s Keelboat Championships in August. Despite the very light winds, a most enjoyable time was had by the 15 skippers and crew who participated. In addition to the traditional flying and white sail fleets of all female crew, we had a third fleet “Women on the Helm” where the crew is open to both male and female. Tro- phies sponsored by Genco were presented to the winners of the Flying Sails and White Sail divisions and Ontario Sailing medals presented to the top three in each division as follows:

Flying Sails 1st Gold Rhum Punch Pat McRae Etobicoke Yacht Club 2nd Silver Doppler Shift Nona Johnstone National Yacht Club 3rd Bronze Lady Bug Marilyn Smilie Mimico Cruising Club

White Sails 1st Gold Pelican Lee Wendy McCloy Port Credit Yacht Club 2nd Silver L’Attitude Jane McLaughlin National Yacht Club 3rd Bronze Gemsaga Donna Scott Mimico Cruising Club

Women on the Helm 1st Gold Still Crazy Sarah Danahy Port Credit Yacht Club 2nd Silver Wayward Laura Rutherford Port Credit Yacht Club 3rd Bronze Hope & Glory Bonnie Reid Port Credit Yacht Club

The 2006 Ontario Women’s Keelboat Championship which is being hosted by Ashbridges Bay Yacht club is scheduled to take place on August 13th. All women from Ontario are welcome to participate. There are no qualifying requirements for this event and again there will be 3 fleets scored.

In addition to our on the water and on the shore activities, the WSA also provides sponsorship - the Women Sailor’s Association Award – a trophy is presented to the Ontario Sailing Female Junior Sailor of the Year – and includes a $500.00 grant. In Janu- ary 2004 at the Ontario Sailing AGM the recipient announced was Alessandra Herrera Remer of Royal Canadian Yacht Club. WSA also sponsored Karen-Ann Xavier who participated in the 2005 IFDS World Multi-hull Championships in Kelowna, BC.

Our appreciation and thanks to Ontario Sailing for their ongoing support and contribution to WSA's successful year.

SAFE SAILING IN CAMPS REPORT From Eric Cartlidge, Program Director

The summer of 2005 marked the third year of the Safe Sailing In Camps Program. This program was developed to better serve our member camps though providing a number of new training opportunities specifically for camps. The Ontario Trillium Founda- tion (OTF) provided the funding for this program.

The types of programs we were able to offer camps this summer included: Sailing Skills Weekends, the Annual Camp Sailing In- structor Training Weekend, On-Site Spring Training Clinics, and a Summer Mobile Program (with or without boats). This summer the program was a huge success and once again we were able to train a high number of staff and increase the sailing skills of a large amount of participants.

The chart below shows an overview of the last 3 years of the Safe Sailing in Camps Program and the number of participants associated with each aspect of the program: Program Number of Clinics/Participants Number of Clinics/Participants Number of Clinics/Participants 2003 2004 2005 Annual Camp 1/9 1/5 1/5 Instructor Clinic Sailing Skills 1/22 2/12 1/3 Weekends Spring Camp 3/31 5/32 7/61 Visits Summer Camp 5/247 6/276 5/223 Mobile With Boats Summer Camp 0/0 2/62 1/34 Mobile Without Boats

Total 10/309 16/387 15/326 The purpose of the Safe Sailing in Camps program is to help camps increase the sailing skill level of the staff working at camps, so that they can in turn raise the sailing levels of the campers participating in the sailing program at the camp.

Although we were not able to meet all the targets as outlined in our initial Trillium application in the first 2 years, we have started to now meet those targets with the completion of our third year.

The table below breaks down our numbers further into a comparative overview, which for the purpose of the Ontario Trillium Foun- dation is divided between Non-Profit and for Profit Camps.

*The OTF funds were only used for the Non-Profit Camps Unfortunately we did not see an increase in the number of participants attending the Annual Camp Instructor Clinic. However, we believe the reason participation numbers are down for this clinic is because there has been a steady increase in the number of Spring On-site Camp Visits we are doing at camps. At the On-site Camp Visits we train up to 12 instructors per site at a fraction of the cost that for a camp to send 12 people to the Camp Instructor Clinic. Therefore the end result is we are able to train more people at the Camp Instructor Level and it is more economical for the camps. The On-site Visits in the spring is an area that we will continue to focus on, based on feedback from the camps, this is a very cost effective way to train their staff and they are very pleased with the results. In addition we will try to refocus the training offered at the Camp Instructor Clinic to attract senior sailing instructors at camps.

Another aspect of the program that continues to be popular is the Summer Mobile with boats. Our two instructors arrive at the camp on Sunday afternoon with a trailer full of boats (thanks to the wonderful support of our sponsors), they set-up and teach at the camp for the week. At some camps they work with the Counsellors in Training to improve their sailing skills so that they will feel confident to take campers out on the water when they become counsellors, and at other camps our staff work along side the camps waterfront staff teaching the campers and helping staff improve their instructing skills.

The highlight of this year’s Safe Sailing in Camps Program was the participation in the Ontario Camping Association’s (OCA) Annual Skills weekend held at YMCA Camp Wanakita. This weekend provided a variety of camp staff the opportunity to get trained in aspects of a particular skill. Participants were able to choose from kayaking, canoeing, wilderness first aid and sailing, to name a few. It was also a great opportunity to network within the OCA community to see where the gaps exist in camp sailing programs and where Ontario Sailing can provide solutions to fill those gaps.

This program, like many of our programs would not be possible without the support of our sponsors. Ontario Sailing would like to acknowledge the boat dealers and manufacturers who supplied us with boats for our 2005 Mobile. Thank you to CL Sailboat Shop who provided us with a CL11, an Echo Dinghy and a Code 40, Fogh Marine who provided us with a Hobie Bravo and a Laser Pico Dinghy and Swans Marine who provided us with a Flying Junior.

Thank you to Lindsay Milne and Sarah Cormier who worked on the Safe Sailing in Camps Program this summer.

The Safe Sailing in Camps Program would not be possible without the generous support of the Ontario Trillium Foundation.

ABLE SAIL REPORT From Eric Cartlidge, Program Director and Keith Hobbs, Chairperson

Ontario Sailing has several initiatives to increase the level of accessible sailing in Ontario. Through our programs, and use of special equipment, people of all ages and with all types of disabilities can experience the joy of sailing.

Able Sail Ontario Ontario Sailing and the clubs that offer Able Sail programs across the province have formed a provincial Able Sail committee called Able Sail Ontario. The clubs represented in this committee along with Ontario Sailing will share resources, information and promote events with the goal of increasing the number of sailors in Ontario. Access BOOM The Access BOOM mobile is a traveling sailing school that journeys to different communities across Ontario and sometimes out of Ontario with two CYA Certified instructors, 4 Access Dinghy’s, a coach boat, and teaching aids. The specially designed Ac- cess Dinghy makes it possible for people with disabilities to sail independently. The Access BOOM program was created in 2000 to give children with disabilities a new recreational activity to enjoy in the summer, but we do have some adult participants in this program as well. In 2005 just over 100 children experienced the thrill of sailing through this program. This program usually runs for eight weeks in the summer. In 2005 we ran the program for 9 weeks, which included a 2 week trip out east to Cape Breton. Special thanks goes out to Chris Garrard, Cyrus Boadway and Mark York who taught the Access BOOM Program this summer.

Able Sail Demonstration The purpose of this mobile is to increase both club and individual awareness of sailing opportunities for people with disabilities. In 2005 we promoted sailing opportunities for people with disabilities through Boat Shows, our Annual Training Workshop, and Club Open Houses.

Program Development Ontario Sailing works with volunteers from various clubs across Ontario to help them start and run sailing programs for people with disabilities. Over the course of the last few years we have helped clubs and schools develop accessible sailing programs that meet the needs of their specific club. Ontario Sailing has helped with things such as specific programming issues, the acqui- sitions of equipment and aid for applying for financial grants. This year, Ontario Sailing ran 2 Able Sail Volunteer workshops. Both the Kingston and Hamilton workshops were well received and plans for next year’s workshops are already in the works.

Boat Loan/Lease Program Ontario Sailing owns several accessible sailboats that we loan/lease to clubs and sailing schools that want to provide sailing opportunities for people with disabilities. Our Boat Loan/Lease Program is an important part of Program Development. Loaning or leasing boats from Ontario Sailing allows clubs to open their doors to people with disabilities, with minimal resources. This season Ontario Sailing loaned out 2 Martin 16’s and 1 Access Dinghy 303 to 2 different clubs.

Competitive Sailing In 2005 several clubs in Ontario hosted regattas for sailors with disabilities. In Ontario the two classes of accessible sailboats that we see used in programs and raced most often are the Martin 16 and the Access Dinghy. This year Martin 16 sailors com- peted at the Skippers’ Plan Cup at ABYC, the National Capital Cup at Nepean Sailing Club, the REACH Regatta at QQDSP in Toronto and the John Farrell Memorial Regatta at Royal Hamilton Yacht Club just to name a few. This summer sailors also had a number of opportunities to participate in several excellent training camps at places such as Nepean and Kingston.

Quinte Sailability hosted the 2005 Canadian Access Dinghy Regatta in August. Access Dinghy sailors also participated in regattas in Kingston, Burlington, and Hamilton.

COMPETITION

ATHLETE DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE REPORT From Susan Irving, Chairperson and Amy Goman, Program Director

2005 was a busy, competitive year for both the dinghy and keel events. Ontario hosted the National Women’s Keel event, 8 Metre Worlds, Laser II Worlds, J105 North Americans, Access Dinghy Canadians, and the Yngling North Americans in addition to the regular contingent of local, provincial, and national events. Ontario Sailing would like to thank all the volunteers, race officials, judges, coaches, and athletes for helping to make the 2005 year so successful!

Ontario Sailing Title Events Ontario Sailing continues its involvement in the Ontario competitive scene. The 2005 Ontario Sailing title events were an amazing success, thanks to the many host clubs and volunteers for their hard work in running these regattas. Specifically we would like to thank Fanshawe Yacht Club, Royal Hamilton Yacht Club, Sarnia Yacht Club, CORK and Britannia Yacht Club for hosting the Ontario Sailing title events. Without these clubs and their volunteers, Ontario would not be home to such a wide variety of highly organized regattas. Yacht clubs are reminded to contact Ontario Sailing if they are interested in hosting 2007 events. Ontario Sailing Title Events are divided into age and gender-specific categories, namely 23 & Under, 18 & Under, 16 & Under, 13 & Under, Women’s, and High School championships.

These events remain very popular with racers across the province with the largest barrier being the numerous conflicting regattas that take place each summer. Attendance numbers have been steady or increasing.

Ontario Sailing/CORK YouthFestival Ontario Sailing’s most popular event is still the Ontario Sailing CORK YouthFestival, held annually before CORK Series I. This event continues to attract over 325 competitors each year. Thanks must be extended to the staff and volunteers of CORK, and to the event organizer, Tim Irwin and Ontario Sailing Director Kim Case. YouthFestival remains one of the largest dinghy training events in the world.

Canada Summer Games In 2005, Ontario sent 8 athletes to the Canada Summer Games held in Regina Saskatchewan. The CSG team consisted of Katie Abbott (Byte), Erika Neuman (29er), Megan Armitage (29er), Evan Lewis (Laser), Anne Gilbert (Radial), Trevor McEwen (29er) and Chris Hewson (29er). The Ontario Team brought home 2 silver medals, one in the Laser class and the other in the men’s 29er class. Special thanks to Bill Abbott for ensuring that the athletes made it out on the water each day with their boats in top condition!

High Performance Race Training Program (Formerly known as OSARC) 2005 was the second year for the High Performance Race Training Program. This program is aimed to extend the training season of our developing athletes so that they are better prepared to compete in the summer months. Various clubs across the province participated in this program and have had excellent participation from eager athletes for both the spring and fall sessions. Bronte Harbour Yacht Club, Frenchman’s Bay Yacht Club, Royal Hamilton Yacht Club, and Sarnia Yacht Club were all hosts of the 2005 program. Because of the hard work of the volunteers at these clubs and the generosity of our sponsor Swan’s Marina, the program was able to give over 100 of Ontario’s most committed and keen young sailors the opportunity to be coached by some of Ontario’s most talented coaches as well as train during four months when previously the support for junior sailors to safely be on the water did not exist.

WINDSURFING COMMITTEE REPORT From Jon Matthews, Chairperson

Although our racing fleets were smaller than other years, Ontario Sailing had another very successful regatta series this summer. Five weekend competitions were held and of those, three were hosted by the Toronto Windsurfing Club (TWC).

The long weekend in May found fifteen hardy sailors at the TWC battling frigid water conditions (9 degrees Celsius), but beautiful sunshine. The wind, which was often hard to find this summer, ranged from three to six knots. Seven races were run over the course of the weekend under the supervision of our dedicated race committee, Irene McNeill, Chris Hope and Louise Hayes. The overall winner was David Hayes ( we seem to hear a lot about this fellow!!), with second place going to Dinchar Kocalar and third place to Paul Carr. Many thanks to Mike Tindall for organizing boats, Bill Quantock for planning the Saturday evening social and to Jane Tindall for helping organize lunches.

The TWC was once again our host on Boardfest weekend (June 11-12). The wind was light, but warm weather and ample sunshine saw us through the weekend. Fourteen sailors participated, with Chris Hope as race director and Louise Hayes as recorder. Unfortunately, we were only able to run four races over the two days, but the social part of the regatta was most enjoyable, as we renewed old friendships from Ottawa. David Hayes ran away with first place, followed by Paul Carr and Ian Matthews.

Ontario Sailing #3 was held in Kingston, with the Kingston Yacht Club as our host. Only nine sailors attended what was to be the best wind of the summer. Wind speed ranged from 7-11 knots on Saturday and 5-7 knots on Sunday. Chris Hope was our acting race director and KYC Commodore, Brian Hinchey, and his volunteers filled out the race committee. Kingston is always a very social time and we thank the KYC for hosting the Saturday evening social and Sunday lunch. Nine races were held and first place went to Mike Keltz. Second and third spots went to Paul Matthews and Nick Cox respectively. Thanks to Jane Tindall for her help with Saturday lunch.

The National Capital Regatta (August 13-14), which is held every year at the Britannia Yacht Club in Ottawa was the venue for our fourth weekend regatta. We saw new faces this weekend, as some of the Ottawa sailors from the BYC joined us. Saturday provided us with good wind with gusts to 20 knots but Sunday the river was like glass. Twelve sailors participated and two newcom- ers, Lee Scott and Hillary Borner joined us on original Windsurfer One-Designs. This was their first time on the water in approxi- mately 20 years and they were remarkable. Five races were run and the winners were, Nick Cox in first place, Bill Fenton (Ottawa) in second, followed by Jon Matthews in third. Many thanks to the Britannia Yacht Club for inviting us to join their regatta and providing such good hospitality.

Last but not least, was the TWC Mammoth weekend (September 10-11). Fifteen sailors enjoyed course racing on Saturday, followed by an end of season social Saturday evening. Chris Hope, Louise Hayes and Ian Hayes made up our able race committee and five races were run. Paul Carr won the event, with Paul Matthews and Keith Whiston, taking second and third place. The overall winner for the season was TWC's Nick Cox. Special thanks, once again go to Mike and Jane Tindall and Bill Quantock. The racers enjoyed the Mammoth on Sunday, which had 56 racers competing.

Hope to see everyone next year and we encourage anyone interested in racing to join our ranks. The series is friendly, non- intimidating and a great way to meet new people and improve your windsurfing skills.

RACE MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE REPORT From Irene McNeill, Chairperson

This has been a busy year for the Ontario Sailing Race Management Committee (RMC).

The February 2005 meeting introduced the Regatta Sub-Committee, chaired by Ontario Sailing Board member David Lewis. This is to be a temporary sub-committee with its mandate to review the Regatta Hosting package and address concerns regarding On- tario Sailing events. The committee also began its update of the Ontario Sailing Race Management section of the Ontario Sailing website. The 3-year strategic plan for the committee was approved.

The May 2005 meeting updated committee members of the progress to date of the Regatta Sub-committee. The race officer certification process was streamlined and mentoring guidelines as developed by John Weakley accepted. This meeting saw the introduction of a Regatta evaluation form developed to obtain feedback from competitors at Ontario Sailing events. This forum would be used to improve the quality of all aspects of Ontario Sailing events.

In September 2005, Irene McNeill and David Lewis met with Al Will and Alex Himmelman of Ontario Sailing to discuss race management committee progress to date. The OS evaluation form and its test use/results at three Ontario Sailing events (Lilac Festi- val, Sturgeon Lake and Windsurfing) were presented. The merits of an on-line registration for 2006 Ontario Sailing events was considered. Draft Guidelines for Ontario Sailing title events were discussed. Topics included: ·recommendations for race officers regarding regattas – line bias, wind strength, etc. ·plan for the consistency of use of starting penalty flags ·preliminary race results being posted in a timely fashion the day of the event ·recommendations regarding the timelines for the publication of all regatta-related documents (NOR, SIs, etc.) ·encourage use of Ontario Sailing on-line registration system for Ontario Sailing regattas ·code of conduct policy for all participants at Ontario Sailing regatta events

The committee met again in October 2005. Work continued on the Regatta Guidelines documents to be posted on the Ontario Sailing website, with the goal to have the race management section updated by the end of 2005. The regatta evaluation form was reviewed with recommendations that the form be place ‘online’ next year for competitors/participants to complete. Pat Lymburner also reported that the revised CYA race management teaching materials would soon be available for use by all course conductors. Also, a race management seminar for coaches is planned for 2006 based on the success of the course presented in June 2005. It is proposed to the Board that a new committee, Regatta Management with Race Management and Judges Certification as sub- committees, be established for 2006.

The committee also reports that the following race management training clinics were held: 2005 Clinic Location Date No. of participants Club & provincial National Yacht Club Feb 12–13 13

Club & provincial Whitby Yacht Club Mar 5-6 13

Club & provincial Etobicoke Yacht Club Apr 2-3 8

Club & provincial Nepean Sailing Club Apr 16-17 12

Mark set Etobicoke Yacht Club May 28-29 7

Club & provincial Etobicoke Yacht Club June 10-11 8

Total 77

The Race Management Certification Sub-Committee (chaired by John Weakley) approved 66 Club Race Officer Certifications and 4 Provincial Race Officer certifications/re-certifications. Thank you to all CYA Course Conductor volunteers for conducting these sessions.

The committee will continue to inform all race officers of the issues in Ontario surrounding Race Management. Clinics are already planned for 2006.

ZONE 5 REPORT From Keith Hobbs, Zone Representative

2005 has been a year of notable milestones and anniversaries for clubs / schools in Eastern Ontario. Happy Silver Anniversary to both the Collins Bay Yacht Club and the Georgian Bay Sailing Centre which is based in Ottawa.

Ontario Sailing’s mobile BOOM program enjoyed successful runs at Lac Deschenes Sailing Club, Stormont Yacht Club and the Brockville Yacht Club.

Key provincial youth championships took place in Eastern Ontario, with Britannia Yacht Club hosting both the 16&under and 18&under events as part of its National Capital Regatta in August. In late September, BYC also hosted the Provincial High School Championships.

In early September Britannia YC and Nepean Sailing Club combined resources to host a very successful CYA Women’s National Keelboat Championship that included 17 teams from five provinces.

Also, in September, Britannia celebrated 50-Years of its junior sailing program. Where were you in 1955?

For more years than living memory serves, the Kingston Yacht Club has been the place to go for people in this city who believe ‘there is nothing, absolutely nothing, half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats’. From its prominent location on the shores of the Kingston waterfront, KYC serves the sailing community as a place to gather and compete in its regular series of keel-boat and dinghy racing, or to simply enjoy these and other events from the comfort of the clubhouse.

In 2005, KYC was privileged to host the Shark Canadians, the 505 North Americans and the radio controlled IOM Canadian Championships.

Throughout much of its history, the Kingston Yacht Club has had a tradition of teaching sailing to the Kingston community; but 2005 has been a stellar year for the Club. In recognition of the Club’s continued commitment to excellence in both its Junior and Adult Learn-to-Sail programs, KYC was awarded the William Abbott Trophy for providing the best LTS experience in Canada.

In order to support its Learn-to-Sail programs, KYC maintains fleets of Nutshells, Optimists, Lasers IIs, FJs, Club 420s and Sharks. The Club also offers a classification of membership, called Community Club, through which a graduate of the Adult Learn-to-Sail program, or anyone who can display a basic sailing competency, is allowed to sign-out one of the Club Sharks for an afternoon’s day-sailing. For those who like to get way throughout the season, the KYC Cruising Fleet organizes numerous rendezvous out- ings to the Club’s Wolfe Island property, as well as to several more distant destinations.

As it has in earlier years, KYC continues to be the venue where Able Sail Kingston gives disabled sailors access to the sport, and where the Queen’s Sailing Team, one of the very few university-level intercollegiate sailing programs in Canada, conducts its Fall activities.

As it enters its 110th year, the Kingston Yacht Club will continue to be a place where everyone who wants to, can pursue their love of the water.

Ottawa Sailing School has now completed its 13th season of training in the nation’s capital region. OSS had another enjoyable and challenging season. This was the second season OSS offered Youth Keelboat programs with an increase in participation from 2004; had the numbers to run another Adult Bronze Sail program; and offered a new adult ‘Beyond Basic’ cruising program. The real challenge is still in finding available instructors to meet the demand from students. It is still very frustrating when we have to ask students to change their plans to try to fit into a different scheduled course or have them walk away when we are not able to find an instructor for them.

Nepean Sailing Club reports it will host the sailing portion of the Ontario Summer Games August 9 – 12, 2006, with sailing to be contested in 420's.

From an operations side, NSC has restarted its Opti-race program, with dedicated Monday night races for the Optimist fleet. This culminated in two NSC Opti-racers finishing 9th and 10th in Cork this year.

NSC also ran an instructor clinic for Green/Blue levels. All who participated had an excellent time. The Ottawa area needs to continue to grow a significant number of Instructors to answer the local demand of the clubs on both the Ontario and Quebec side of the Ottawa River.
