The Moth World regatta wrapped up on Saturday
October 19 with a big luau attended by the racers and
their many friends and family. The comments have
been very positive. Although the exposure the Moth
World Regatta brought to KYC is immeasurable, so far
the bar is experiencing a nice surge in sales. Our
portion from Private Parties catered to the regatta is in
excess of $1,200 not counting the Snack Bar sales. The
Club and the membership are sharing the positive impact of this regatta.
We awarded the contract to Commercial Roofing to repair our flat and
tile roof with a silicone type of sealant with 10-year warranty. They started
priming the Upper Deck Roof. We had to get them started as time is of the
essence. We need to complete the roof so that we can install the PV system
before the end of the year. They were very careful to avoid any damage to
the Moths. They have done the Upper Deck roof and started the rest on
Monday, October 21 so the working is ongoing.
The fans in the Longhouse have been replaced with better working fans.
Now we are able to adjust fan speed and dim the lights appropriately.
All the sewer lines under the parking lot were inspected by video.
Found some places were sagging but OK to pave over. None of the sewer
lines are cracked.
We have added another big screen TV for the bar.
Remember the Annual Membership Meeting on Friday, November 1
at 6PM and Commodores Ball on December 14.
2013 is slowly sailing into the sunset. The
Deckhands and Entertainment Committee put on two
outstanding events, the Keiki Halloween Party and the
Adult Halloween Party respectively. The ghost and
goblins were out in force, the kids were screaming and
the adults were dancing. I saw Clark Kent on one side
of the long house and Superman on the other. How
did he do that? There was Super Girl, Bat Man, Bula'ea and a Cheerleader all
under the same roof; I’d say we were pretty safe that night. Well, in other words,
if there were to be a brawl, at least we had our Cheerleader and Bula'ea to keep
the crowd motivated. It was a great day for all of our members to come out and
enjoy our club.
We are currently at 100% senior membership in our club; please continue
sponsoring new prospective members. Due to attrition we might not have to
start a waitlist for new members.
We had the sewer lines in the front parking lot "scoped" before we spend
money in repaving. The scoping revealed no damage so it’s onto the parking lot
paving next.
I’d like to say thank you to our Rear Commodore Tom Pochereva and his
team for putting on an outstanding World Moth event. I cannot start to tell you
what this has done for our club; let’s just say we put our mark on the map. Great
job team!
Looking forward to seeing all of you around the club or in the water,
Chico

Aloha KYC members and families,
October was a very busy month at Kaneohe Yacht
Club with the Sir Thomas Lipton One Design
Challenge Cup, the International Moth World
Championship and the Cal 20 State Championship.
Kaneohe Yacht Club is a vital part to the health of
Hawaii’s boating and sailing community. Thank you
all for your support of our club.
The Club is now starting refurbishments to the roof and other key
infrastructure such resurfacing the club’s road ways. While this work is being
done please take care as you move around the club. Things may not always be
where you expect them and a little caution will make the club safer for all.
This time of year continues to be busy for our members as fleets wrap up
their seasons with tournaments, events and celebrations. The clubs annual
awards banquet date is being changed to Saturday, December 7 so please watch
for update notices.
As noted last month plans are underway by the Haul-out Fleet for the
annual maintenance of many members’ boats. The north dock work area will
become congested. Visibility will be hampered and children should be
reminded this is not a play area. Everyone’s co-operation will be greatly
appreciated.

Chico's Trivia Corner:
Q – The point of sail perpendicular to the wind (90 degrees off the wind)
is: Sailing across the wind on a run, beam reach or broad reach?
A – beam reach.
Q – A sheet is: a sail, a line that controls a sail, furls and unfurls a sail or
a reefing line?
A – A line that controls a sail.
Q – True wind is what you feel once the boat gets up to full speed. True
or False?
Joe Cochran Memorial
Channel Race
A - False, true wind is what exists without any boat speed.
Q – You're sailing a two masted boat with the mizzen mast located forward
of the steering post. What type of boat are you on?
Sunday November 3, 2013
A -A Ketch; the ketch and the yawl both have a mizzen mast, aft of the
main mast, but the mizzen mast on a yawl is located aft of the steering post.
The easy way to remember which is which is that 'k' comes before 'y'.

Q – The rigging which exerts side forces to keep the mast vertical is the
what?

Aloha Members and Families,
Thank you all very much for
contributing to the success of the 2013
McDOUGALL
+
McCONAGHY
International Moth World Championships.
In return, the club played host to many
of the world’s top sailors;
KYC member Ian Andrewes, awarded
US Sailing's Hanson Medal for a rescue on
San Franciso Bay as part of America's
Youth Sailing Force on July 17;
For some who were involved in the
America’s Cup like Outteridge and Adam
May;
Multihull ‘Yoda’ Loick Peyron;
Past winners such as Josh McKnight,
Simon Payne and, Bora Gulari (this year's
winner);
3 time Volvo Ocean Race sailor,
International 14 and 18 ft. Skiff World
Champion Rob Greenhalgh;
and, Sailors from Olympic, national
and international campaigns from 15
countries around the world.
This type of undertaking took
considerable planning, preparation and
implementation by a very active and
significant part of the club’s membership.
Members of our club, the staff, catering,
guests and other Hawaii yacht clubs stepped
in with time and/or equipment to make this
event happen. These people all played an
important part in making sure that regatta
events ran smoothly every day from the
time people arrived, during the racing and
until the last boat was packed up at the end
of the championship. It is a remarkable
team that we have here and it is very special
to be able to work with all of you.
Again, thank you,
Sincerely,
Tom Pochereva, PRO

Aloha from the Cal 20 Fleet,
The last two regattas of the season, Lipton
One Design and State Keel Boat Championships,
took place this October.
Lipton One Design was sailed by a
representative boat from each yacht club in
Hawaii. In total, eleven boats completed 8 races
in great winds over the course of two days.
Congratulations to John Myrdal and Scott
Melander,
representing
Hawaii
Laser
Association, on their first place victory. Close
behind was Keahi Ho and Bobo Stanford from
Maui Boat and Yacht Club in second, and Andy
Johnson and Corey LarRieu from Kaneohe Yacht
Club in third.
State Keel Boat Championships took place
in extremely shifty and difficult conditions. At
various times throughout the regatta, we had no
wind, thunder, lightning, rain, and winds out of
every possible direction. The race committee
certainly had their hands full dealing with it, and
did a great job getting races off. A total of 5 races
were completed over two days. Three points
separated 1st and 3rd place overall.
Congratulations to John Myrdal and Andrew
McDonald on their victory. Following close
behind was Marc Barra and Rich Reilly in
second, and Ken Kaan and Mike Scott in third.
In addition to some awesome racing, we had a
great barbeque for the fleet Saturday evening,
organized by fleet social chairs Katie Cruise and
Kerri Schwiebert.
It’s was a great season this year, and we look
forward to getting back to racing in early 2014.
Thanks to the competitors, race committee
volunteers, and Kaneohe Yacht Club for all the
support.

Today’s lesson is about the Marina Regulations
and the requirement of recording your quarterly
boat trips on the Movement Log in the office.
The Board of Directors changed the rules a few
years ago to require every vessel, including kayaks
and dinghies, dry or wet moored at the Club, to
complete a trip at least as far as Coconut Island and back twice in a calendar
quarter, but not in the same month. Kayaks and the like may substitute the
Coral Patch for Coconut Island. They were trying to insure the increased use
of Club moored boats. The penalty for not signing the Movement Log is
$100 for the first incident, $200 for the second and loss of the slip for the
third failure to sign in any two-year period. There is a mercy provision in
the event something serious happens to you, provided you notify me ahead
of the close of the calendar quarter. Accounting receives the log upon the
closing of the quarter and it is out of my hands. A letter to the Board of
Directors is the next step, explaining to them why you could not move the
boat twice in the same quarter.
The Moth class racers are gone (for the most part). Although we lost a
lot of car parking, the regatta went off without too much disruption.
The next major planned event will be Pacific Cup, mid-year 2014.
There will be signs posted, and volunteers can pick and choose a committee
to work with. This is essentially a one-week event at the Club, but often
takes more time. I think we will have the maximum of 70 boats, but some
will drop out between now and the start.
Another reminder, Haul-out season begins November 2, with the set up
party and the first haul will be November 16. There will be very limited
space in the work area for smaller boats, so plan your boat maintenance
needs accordingly.
There are 54 shopping days to Christmas.
Kaila Baker Finishing Race 3
Have fun, stay safe, and I’ll see you on the water.

Thanksgiving is in the air, and the turkeys are hiding. Where has the
year gone?
The Keiki Halloween Party was a great success! Lots of rides, crafts,
sandwiches, and candy. A great big THANK YOU to all the volunteers.
Christmas is upon us. Time to purchase those gifts for your loved
ones, near and far. We are getting in new items all the time. Reyn's shirts
for men, skirts, tees, and sweaters for ladies. And don't forget the kids'
tee shirts and rashgards. Make your list and come Shop,Shop, Shop.
Mark your calendars: Santa will be stopping by the Keiki
Christmas Party. He will be arriving at 10:00 a.m. on December 21, and
leaving around noon. Please bring a wrapped present with your child's
name on it, so your child will receive a gift from Santa.
Our Deckhands Volunteers for the month of November are Ann and
Dave Ayling. Please come by and use your discount at the locker!
Wounded Warriors
In September some of the Wounded Warriors and their families
from Kaneohe Marine Base enjoyed a beautiful and relaxing "day on
the bay." The Deckhands sponsor these events two or three times a
year with the help of KYC mariners and other members.
A big mahalo to Don Brown, who rounded up the float boats and
capable crew. Thanks to Bob Fram, who offered his boat and himself
for the day, and also to crew members, Bob Palmer, Bill Bachmann,Bob
Hurd and Ron Dodini. Deckhands provided the picnic lunch for
everyone with Sime Gross and her daughter on the sandwish detail.
Phyl Pender and Mark Walker prepared and packed up other goodies
for lunch. Mahalo to Elin Farrell and Suzie Januzzi for the yummy
cookies which the kids as well as the grown-ups devoured.
Funding for these events comes from the generous donations you
put in the jar at the Deckhands Locker window.
