People Watching at Anchor
A Useful Tool for a Good Night’s Sleep
As I sit in the palatial 48° North offices,
overlooking the parade of boats heading north
out into Puget Sound from the ship canal,
many on their yearly migration to the San
Juan Islands, it’s impossible to tell who is experienced and who is on their
maiden voyage with their new or “new old boat.” There are some telltale
signs, however, that some boaters are more experienced than others. In last
month’s editorial I mentioned how boats seem to sprout useful items based
on their owner’s experiences. Very few boats, if any, will return to the islands
without some piece of new gear fulfilling a want from the previous trip. Of
course, a new sailor can have a well outfitted used boat, which becomes a
case of, “I’m not a cowboy, I just found the hat.” But, for the most part, well
outfitted boats are a good sign of experience.
People watching at anchor is a peaceful, educational and most often a
very entertaining pastime. It gives you an idea of what is happening around
you, something that may determine whether or not you get a good night’s
sleep. Watching the boats swing at anchor will tell you what you might
expect as tides and winds change. Everything may be fine at first, but when
the boats reverse themselves when the tide turns, the variety of scopes in
the anchorage may create some closer than comfortable situations. This is a
good thing to deal with in the daylight as opposed to a dew covered deck in
the dark. Most people are aware and will work together to make everything
pleasant for everyone. Some don’t. Lots of times it just depends on who was
there first. Sometimes moving is inconvenient but it’s worth it for the peace
of mind, or just the peace.
It’s just like everything else in boating; anticipate what might happen,
and prepare for it, or at least be aware of it. Just like watching the weather
and tides, watching the people around you gives you a heads up. And by
the way, they’re watching you too.

NEW! Breaking Waves
A new addition to the homepage this month is the Breaking Waves section.
On the right side of the page will be continually changing news and events
that came in too late for the current issue, but will be over before the next
issue comes out, or are significant enough that we want to get the word out
right away, and can’t wait for the next monthly mag, i.e. The State Parks
system always sends their press releases for events about three days before
the event, obviously too late for the mag. We will continue to do this on
our Facebook page but wanted to have something on our homepage as
well, to keep you up to date while visiting www48north.com
Cruising Blogs
Last month we announced Eulalie Sullivan and Eric Laschever, sailing
Elizabeth Jean, had been added to the Cruising Blogs. They sailed from
Seattle to Mexico this year to begin their open-ended adventure. But, due
to an electronic error (always blame the electronics) they didn’t show up
on the list. They are up there now, so join in their Mexican adventure.

An Idea on Preparing to Cruise Full-Time
Get Used to Anchoring
Full time cruising means spending most of your nights
at anchor. If you’re like we were in the Puget Sound,
anchoring for a night was a big deal. I spent many nights
awake wondering if we would drag. This is what we did
to get comfortable with anchoring. Three years before we
headed south for the sun, we decided to stop using marinas
when we took the boat out for the weekend. We bought an
oversized anchor, 73 lbs. Rocna and 300’ of chain. Our boat
is 42’ and 20,000 lbs. Every time our yacht club went on a
cruise, we would anchor next to the marina and take our
dinghy to the event. For three years we spent the month
of August in the San Juan Islands and never spent a night
in the marina. Soon we became comfortable sleeping on
the hook and in fact started to like it more than being on
a dock. The boat did not jerk against its dock lines when
a boat came through or when the wind picked up. In
addition anchoring saved us $42 or more a night in marina
fees. Soon all that chain and anchor was paid for. Since
leaving to sail the world by boat, we have spent more than
1,200 days at anchor and now trust our anchor more than
the mooring balls some places want us to rent, as we know
the condition of our gear. This confidence gives us the
ability to find secluded anchorages that others won’t use.
There are many articles on what is the correct amount of
scope to use when anchoring. We have talked with many
cruisers about this and
find each person needs
to be comfortable with
their own set up. On
Kokomo, a 5 to 1 scope
is plenty and allows us
to sleep most nights.
If ever faced with
abnormal conditions,
we are prepared to
put out much more.
If you’re planning on
heading south or just
want the freedom to gunkhole any bay, cut loose from the
dock and enjoy the freedom of anchoring.
Denny and Becky Flannigan
s/v Kokomo
Probably some of the best pre-cruising advice I’ve ever
heard. I especially like the bonus of the anchor “paying for
itself,” because you’re not spending money on marina fees.
Saving money while getting experience and confidence, nice
combination.

Any Info on Pro 28’ from New Zealand
Has anyone seen a boat like this? I am trying to find
Boat #1 and Boat #2. I recently purchased Boat #3 without
mast or rigging. I am searching for help with deck layout,
rigging and information about the boat and the designer,
Harold Evans.
I know that Harold Evans is a New Zealand yacht
designer known for incorporating “racks” into his designs.
He designed the Pro 28 race boat with two distinct features:
The deck mounted tubular racks that protrude from the
side on which the crew hike out, and the open sweeping
transom.
It is my understanding that in 1989 there were only
three of these boats built and shipped from New Zealand
to California for a boat show. After their debut, Boat #1
and Boat #2 disappeared as did the mast and rigging for
Boat #3. Consequently, Boat #3 never saw water and was
scheduled for demolition.
Abandoned, half full of water, and without mast or
rigging, I bought it anyway. I could not help myself. The
boat looked devilishly quick. Even lying tangled in the
weeds, I could see this was a boat, not designed to draw a
crowd…but to leave it behind.
Without a diagram and mast specifications I am
running into rigging problems using my available used

Anchoring and Mooring in Maple Bay
My name is Melanie Griffin and I live with my husband
in Maple Bay aboard our vessel the MV Atrevida No. 1. On
July 9, a Municipality of North Cowichan Bylaw Officer
and two staff boarded our boat without permission and
tried to enter the vessel to serve us with the attached
(email) eviction notice. The notice stated that we had
to leave the area by 9am July 16 or face a $500 per day
fine. It states that all anchored and moored vessels are
contravening the W1 zone which stretches for 1000 feet out
from all shorelines in the Municipality These Municipal
staff were not in uniform and had no ID. They also went
right inside vessels to serve the notice, even if nobody was
aboard.
The next day we found out that the Municipality
was to hold a private, emergency meeting to discuss
this issue (and others issues I believe). Members of our
group attended this meeting but were told to “leave, you
are not allowed here.” Needless to say, they stayed and
didn’t leave. Three members of the group were able to
speak which resulted in the Council placing a hold on the
decision until an Options Report could be presented by
Municipal staff at the August 20, regular council meeting.
We have learned that an Options Report pertains only to
the provincial and federal laws and jurisdictions that relate
to the issue. It doesn’t include any ‘community focus.’
While we don’t have to leave until potentially August 20,
there is a much larger issue involved.
We have been told by several sources (including our
lawyer) that other municipalities are waiting to hear the
outcome of this situation. In other words, if this bylaw
is not altered or some other arrangement made, North
Cowichan Municipality will set the precedent for all other
BC municipalities to not allow anchoring or mooring of
private vessels within 1000 feet of any shoreline. While
we are obviously fighting for our home, the larger issue
is that they are threatening to remove our Canadian Right
to navigate and anchor in Canadian waters (a.k.a. the
Common Law).
We are pushing the Municipality to work with the
boating community instead of this heavy handed approach
in a subject they obviously have no knowledge of. We have
heard of the annual decal system in place in Washington
State which uses the annual fees to fund the removal of
derelict vessels. All of the members of our group (and
others) believe this system has much merit and is worth
investigating. We are trying to raise awareness of this
situation and would welcome anything you may be able
to do. We are also encouraging people to email comments
to [email protected] which will go to all North
Cowichan Council members.
Thank you for your time,
Melanie and Neal Griffin

The only festival that celebrates
Tacoma’s working waterfront will
return to the Foss Waterway. Maritime
Fest, now in its 22nd year, will be held
at Thea’s Park and the Foss Waterway
Seaport at 705 Dock Street. In addition
to highlighting the contributions
the working waterfront has made to
Tacoma, the festival will focus on Puget
Sound recreational watercraft and
marine education.
Maritime Fest is a free community
event for people of all ages. In addition
to the popular toy boat building and
remote control boats, the festival will
include a range of boat displays from
tug boats to tall ships, a beer garden,
musical entertainment, sailboat rides
and an entertainment stage just for kids.
Back again is the hugely popular
Quick and Dirty Boat Building Contest.
Now in its 8th year, the contest features
local teams that have to build a boat
from scratch and race it around a course
within six hours. Team registrations for
the contest are now being accepted at:
http://maritimefest.org/quickanddirty
Sponsors for this year’s festival
include The Port of Tacoma, Totem
Ocean Trailer Express (TOTE), Vigor
Industrial, Belina Interiors, Horizon
Lines, Crowley Maritime, TEMCO,

Fun was had by all at the inaugural
Pacific Northwest J/Boat Rendezvous
the weekend of June 28-29. With the
drizzly rain pushing across the bottom
of the Olympics towards West Seattle,
10 hearty J/Boats risked the weather
to find themselves lounging in sunny
skies with a warm brisk southerly
breeze blowing through the quiet and
relaxing Brownsville Marina.
“Ten boats and only one without
a dodger,” laughed Dennis Clark,
owner of that one little dodger-less
boat, his beautifully restored J/27.
The dodger crowd consisted of a
J/122 all the way up from Portland,
Oregon, a J/40, J/37, J/109, J/35c,
three each J/35's and a J/30 to round
out the crowd. Sailors enjoyed hours
of touring the different boats, taking
time to explore and meet each of the
owners and finally to vote on the
“Best in Show” for the PNW J/Boat
Rendezvous.
With the beautiful, modern J/122,
the clean and
quick J/109 and
the beautifully
rebuilt J/27, it was
anyones guess on
the winner. Come
d i n n e r, i n t h e
pavilion, it was
time to add up
the votes cast by
each and every
attendant. Third
place went to the
J/37 Lolo with her
unique design
August 2014
www.48North.com
and well oiled interior. Second place
went to the re-furbished J/27 with
its sleek dodger-less deck, modern
rigging and clean lines. First place,
well ahead of the others, was the
amazingly rebuilt 1984 J/35 Pazzo. In
like new condition after her years of
being rebuilt, painted and re-powered
there was no question in everyone's
mind that this old J/35 was the “Best
in Show.”
Poker rally, chicken and steak
dinner, prizes and awards all sponsored
by Trident funding, welcome bags with
the help of Peoples Bank on Westlake,
Red and White Wine from J. Lohr and
J/Boat hats for everyone from the
friendly owners of that little company
in Rhode Island, the Johnstones. With
new sponsors already lined up for
next year the event like no other. With
new sponsors already lined up for
next year, the J/Boat Rendezvous, is
primed and ready for years of fun and
friends. — Ben Braden

a great location for gathering U.S. and
Canadian based Island Packet Yachts
for a weekend of fun, educational

you don’t own an Island Packet but

well. Please call or email:

The Wooden Boat Society of
the San Juan Islands is holding the
13th Annual Wooden Boat Rendezvous
at Deer Harbor. The Rendezvous takes
place between the Victoria Classic
Boat Festival and the Port Townsend
Wooden Boat Festival.
All wooden boats are welcome:
oar, power and sail. Wooden boats
of all sizes attend the Rendezvous,
from rowboats to motor launches, and
daysailers to historic tall ships. Most
of the boats moor at the Deer Harbor
Marina, and are available for public
viewing throughout the gathering. The
Rendezvous is a low-key celebration of
wooden boats.
Questions, or would like to
volunteer, call Deer Harbor BoatWorks
(360) 376-4056. Make moorage
reservations with Deer Harbor Marina
(360) 376-3037, mention the rendezvous
to get the reduced moorage rate.
“The Poulsbo cruising community
is shocked when pieces of the Celina, a
Hunter 356, are found floating in Puget
Sound after the Celina’s EPIRB alerted
the Coast Guard. A week later, when
the sheriff's boat pulls the body of her
skipper, Chuck Kroge, out of Madison
Bay, the community is mystified.”
“Was it an accident, suicide, or
murder?” Thus begins the HAPS
murder mystery rendezvous in
Poulsbo. Clues will be placed in land
and sea, and teams will compete with
each other for clues, the substance of
which may (or may not) add up to some
finger pointing at “Chuck's wake,” a
potluck dinner on the dock when all
will eventually be revealed (if Chuck’s
ex-wife has her will and her way).
All Hunter sailboat owners with
sense of adventure and humor are
welcome. For further information, call
Stuart at (425) 205-3888.

A Mariners’ Memorial for Port Townsend
It is hard to believe that a city
steeped in maritime history does not
have a fitting memorial to sailors who
never returned from the sea. Victorian
seaport Port Townsend, Washington
was such a city, but thanks to the
dedicated efforts of a local family and
the Kiwanis club, those brave mariners
will soon have the recognition they
deserve.
The idea of a Mariners’ Memorial
was conceived by Bernie Arthur, former
partner in Skookum Marine, who
with his family donated a prominent
100’ parcel of downtown shoreline to
Port Townsend Kiwanis for the project.
“Port Townsend has a long history
of water-related events and this
memorial will give a focus to all who
went to sea,” Arthur explained. “The
Kiwanis Mariners’ Memorial will
commemorate all who were lost at
sea, especially in and around Puget
Sound.”
More than 20 community members
gathered at the property for the recent
dedication ceremony. Among them
were Makah Tribe hereditary Chief
Walter McQuillen and his wife, Sarah,
who thanked the Arthur family for their
donation, saying, “It is an honor to be
included in the ceremony. This great
man (Arthur) is doing a wonderful
thing for the people that go to the water
to provide for their family.”
Others present included Port
Townsend Mayor David King, Jefferson
County Commissioner Phil Johnson,
members of the maritime trades,
Kiwanis and the Arthur family.
Kiwanis has undertaken a fundraising effort to build the memorial,
which will include a bronze sculpture
and is estimated to cost $200,000. Along
with monetary donations, Kiwanis is
seeking information from people who
can add to the history of lost sailors
for inclusion in the final project. Those
who contribute will be recognized on
the memorial.
To contribute to or for information
about the project, contact Melanie
Bozak at [email protected], or
write to Port Townsend Kiwanis, P.O.
Box 489, Port Townsend, WA 98368.

Puget Sound Maritime Historical Society
Receives Ed Monk Sr’s Collection Of Ship Plans
Through the generosity of Edwin
Monk, Jr. of Bainbridge Island, the
Puget Sound Maritime Historical
Society has received the entire
collection of his father ’s drawings.
This collection represents a naval
architectural career of nearly fifty
years. Wide ranging in size and scope,
his vessels were designed for both
pleasure and commercial clients and
became familiar to mariners all along
the Pacific Coast.
Edwin Monk Sr. began as a
shipbuilding apprentice in 1914,
working with his father who was a
shipwright in the Puget Sound area.
Ultimately, while working at the
Blanchard Boatyard on Lake Union,
Monk had the opportunity to meet the
legendary naval architect Ted Geary.
Geary hired him as a draftsman in
1926 and shortly thereafter, when
Geary decided to move closer to
lucrative prospects in California, Monk
joined him there. Around 1934, Monk
returned to the Pacific Northwest and
designed the 50-foot NAN, which he
then built, lived aboard at the Seattle
Yacht Club, and used as an office. He
moved his workspace into a small
corner of the Grandy Boat Company
in 1940, then later to an office at the
Marina Mart on Westlake.
In 1947, Monk was joined by
fellow naval architect Lorne Garden
and moved his office to the National
Building near Colman Dock. This was
convenient for his daily commute to
and from his Port Madison home,
which was tucked on the shore of
Hidden Cove on Bainbridge Island.
He moored a succession of ten personal
“cruisers” in his boathouse there.
Monk died in 1973 at the age of 79
The Monk Ship Plans Collection
includes over 2,000 individual vessel
designs which have been cataloged
according to client, boat type, length,
year and name. PSMHS has assumed
responsibility for preservation and
care of these valuable assets and is
now ready to accept research inquires.
To make an inquiry, please visit our
website (www.pugetmaritime.org)
and fill out the “Research Inquiry
Form” found on the Resources page.
You may email your request to
[email protected].
In addition to the invaluable
collection of ship plans, Edwin Monk,
Jr. also donated his father’s half-hull
models, his drawing curves, and his old
ship sign. PSMHS is also in the process
of acquiring Mr. Monk’s photographic
collection, which chronicles the ships
of his design as they were under
www.48North.com
August 2014
construction and completed.
The completeness and significance
of this collection is both rare and greatly
appreciated. Puget Sound Maritime
Historical Society thanks Edwin
Monk, Jr. for his willingness to share
these treasures. Society president John
Hough noted the group looks forward
to ensuring that the full collection
is cared for and made available to
researchers in perpetuity.

Sailing is more than simply a sport
for many people the world over; it’s also
a way of life. There are valuable lessons
inherent in the sport of sailboat racing
that have enriched the lives of sailors
for generations. In Plotting The Course,
readers are given a glimpse into the
vast and diverse world of competitive
sailing and shown valuable tools that
the sport can provide for finding success
in the ways we live and work.
The foundation of Plotting the
Course is the cyclical nature of life’s
experiences in parallel with
those of a sailing campaign.
The challenges that a
sailor faces in mounting a
competitive effort tend to
mirror those that anyone
would find in a worthy
endeavor onshore, from the
early planning stages to the
moment of performance
and on to the learning
phase that follows each challenge and
precedes the next. Each of
these phases is explored using
examples from the world of
sailing and provides takeaways
that apply for use in life on shore;
in business, relationships, or
everyday situations.

LESSONS LEARNED WHILE CRUISING Jamie & Behan Gifford
Beasties Onboard!
Warning: paradise may at times involve coexisting with nature
that wants to sting you, eat you, or just plain gross you out.
As captains go, Captain Monday
was my favorite when I was a deckhand
on the 1907 Steam Ship Sabino, doing
tours for the Mystic Seaport Museum.
Captain Monday was an old salt
having begun seafaring in the 1920s
on a square rigged ship sailing the
South Pacific. A lowly 16 year old and
unproven sailor, his only friend was a
mouse. His stories of Tahitian women,
sailing ships, and friendly rodents
were most memorable!
Fast forward thirty years: I’ve seen
Tahitians, sailed the South Pacific, and
as of July 9th seen rats onboard Totem.
It was magical up until July 9th! We’re
in Puteri Marina, on the Malaysian
side of muddy, crocodile patrolled
Johor Straits. On the other side lies
Singapore’s military range, where
F16s and Chinook helicopters practice
maneuvers while machine gun fire
and mortar rounds hammer away at
imaginary targets. Tiny Singapore is
the mouse that roars. Rats seem to
prefer the peaceful Malaysian side.
Our first rat scurried aboard late at
night, spied by our son Niall as he read
in his bunk. We went after it, without
success. A few hours later, at 3 a.m., a
second rat jumped through a hatch. It
landed on Behan, who wasted no time
transitioning from deep sleep to a loud,
loud scream.
Cruising near coasts or far shores
brings you and your fine vessel to
paradise. It’s easy to imagine perfect
anchorages, quaint towns, and
stunning nature; a kind of mental
travel brochure with no hotel room
required. And it is about those things,
but occasionally stunning nature visits
you in unwelcome ways.
La Cucaracha!
Some say that for every cockroach
you see, one hundred are hidden
nearby. They are not pleasant. If you
plan on sailing in tropical paradise,
plan on cockroaches. Their eggs come
aboard hidden in cardboard packaging.
Minimizing packaging helps, but
they’ll also just fly right in the hatches!
Our last cockroach assault came when
we were anchored near a small island
in Malaysia. A dozen or more thumb
sized roaches sought shelter in our
cozy main cabin. We scrambled to catch
them and send them to the spa, over
the side. They swim well, but hungry
fish swim better.
There are a number of ways to try to
prevent cockroaches from flourishing
onboard. None are perfect. Roach
motels are timid, sprays put nasty
chemicals in the air and on surfaces,
and “bombs” are a last resort that
leaves chemical residue throughout
the boat. Many cruisers report good
luck mixing boric acid powder with
A glamor shot of the
“Totem’s” rat trap on
the dock. Live traps are
the favored style here
in Malaysia, although
we’re ready to try
anything. We can’t
afford to rewire the
boat and you can hear
the bugger chewing at
night! Awful!

sweetened condensed milk into a
paste. Then stick small globs of the
mixture around bilge, lockers, etc. A
more potent gel, commercial product
is called MaxForce Roach Killer. This is
a nasty poison, so use extreme caution.
Accidental or unknowing contact,
especially by children or pets, could
be tragic. While these methods are
passive, a gecko or two onboard are
very active anti-cockroach weapons.
Ewww, Ants
Legendary Harvard Professor
E. O. Wilson discovered that ants
have a means of communication.
Unfortunately, they haven’t gotten
the message that we don’t want them
on Totem! A species of very small ants
settled on Totem in Australia. There’s
no logical explanation for how they got
there, yet there they were – hundreds
of them marching one by one, hurrah.
Out came a sponge and cleaners; a few
drops of cinnamon oil wiped in the
pantry deters them from food, but still
they returned from impossibly small
spaces. A few ants are easy to deal
with. It’s when they form a nest, with a
queen, that you’ve signed a long lease
with bad tenants. There are powders
that sicken ants, who return to the nest,
sickening the population. We’ve found
them to only delay ant colonization.
You have to find the nest, or have a
gecko that does that for you.
The Stingers!
Thank you bees for pollinating
flowering plants of the world. We have
no flowering plants on Totem, so no
need to stop by. At least, so we thought.
At a small island in the Sea of Cortez,
Isla Carmen, bees swarmed us from
sunrise to sunset. Hundreds buzzed
at every portlight, thousands at every
hatch. Even with the boat completely
sealed, many somehow found their
way inside in search of fresh water.
They weren’t aggressive, but it was
intimidating.
Anyone with a bee allergy must
have the necessary medications; and
other crew members must have training
on how to administer should the
inflicted be unable to do so themselves.
Geckos provide no defense against
bees’ sting, but a venom extraction kits
may be just the thing for some stinging
beasts. Our kit was very handy in
Papua New Guinea after a scorpion
firmly planted its stinger in to Behan’s
neck.
The Eaters… Mosquitoes, Termites,
Fruit Flies, Weevils, Lice
Cooking and eating local dishes
rate high on the list for understanding
the places we visit. Ceviche in Mexico.
Poisson Cru in French Polynesia.
Kangaroo burgers in Australia. In
return though, local beasties like to
sample us, our food, and our boat. We
are a traveling smorgasbord!
Mosquitoes are the bane of earth,
pure evil carrying malaria, Japanese
encephalitis, dengue fever, and others.
Disease carrying mosquitoes are not
usually an issue in Puget Sound, but
they can still be very irritating. Mosquito
repellents are mostly by chemicals
of varying toxicities, but alternatives
exist. We use a small device that emits
a high pitched sound the beasts find
annoying; it’s nearly inaudible to us. In
areas where mosquitoes carry disease,
chemically treated screens and netting
decorate the hatches and ports. A travel
doctor or nurse can advice you about
test kits, vaccinations, and meds to
carry onboard.
Other eaters aren’t as lethal, but
rate high for aggravation. Worse, they
can contaminate food and consume
that lovely teak interior. Australia often
requires visiting yachts with wood in
the cabin to undergo expensive termite
testing. Weevils will bore through
multiple layers of plastic, while scoffing
at the bay leaves you put in the flour to
repel them. Fast multiplying fruit flies
can be enough to take away anyone’s
appetite for a delicious Washington
apple. In Half Moon Bay near San
Francisco, we had a huge swarm of
hungry black flies visit, it wasn’t fun.
There are a few tricks that help, a
little, such as freezing or microwaving
flour to kill any organisms already
present. A couple of hours in the solar
oven can do the job as well. Otherwise,
it’s all about inspecting and cleaning.
When you get to a place with flying
termites, you’ll want to keep a close eye
on nooks and crannies. We use vinegar
or lime juice mixed with water to kill
germs on surfaces. And once again, all
hail the might gecko for its fly eating
prowess.
Not that it would really happen
on your boat, but lice shampoo is a
good thing to have onboard for any
big passages. We found this out the
hard way, on the 2900 miles leg from
Mexico to Marquesas. To be 1000
miles from shore and find three lice
infested scalps, and no lice shampoo on
board becomes and an exercise in “nit
picking” – literally, for days.
I still have fond memories of
Captain Monday, but his little rodent
relationship now strikes me as odd. It’s
now July 11th and traps have not yet
caught our rats. Perhaps that mental
travel brochure for sailing in paradise
with beautiful beaches and clear water
should include a small disclaimer that
says- Warning: paradise may at times
involve coexisting with nature that
wants to sting you, eat you, or just
plain gross you out. Be strong, you’re
bigger. Get a gecko.

Replacing the Impeller in
Your Raw Water Pump
Regular maintenance is the key to dependability
of the cooling system for your auxiliary engine.
Jack and Alex Wilken
Water is always a big theme on
boats. Sometimes it is how to keep it
out while other times it’s keeping it in
or moving it from one place to another.
One important piece in this puzzle is
the ever-present pump. Some of these
pumps depend on impellers. The first
one that comes to mind is the raw water
pump on the engine. This pump will
often develop problems from neglect.
Regular maintenance is the key to
dependability of the cooling system for
your auxiliary engine.
The first question is, “When or how
often should I replace the impeller in my
engine’s raw water pump?” Once every
year, or sooner, depending on the
engine duty (use), is the recommended
service interval. A properly installed
impeller may last for several years if
it receives a free flow of water at its
intake port. You can always keep the
impellers you change out every spring
as spares. The added bonus is you

Figure 1: The two original, soon to be
replaced screws “A” show wear in their
slots. The new screw is an Allen socket
machine screw “B”. The Allen socket
will hold the tool in place while you are
turning it. Also, Allen wrenches need
little clearance in front of the pump and
will work at an angle.
34
know these spare impellers fit your
pump; no chance someone bought the
wrong spare part. So, you can change
the impeller on your terms or when
you least expect it, entering a marina
or anchorage etc.
How do I change it? You remove the
screws that hold the end plate on and
pry off the end plate. Now you pull out
the impeller. The first part of this can
be straight forward enough if the slot
on the screws is in good condition. Yes,
typically these screws are slotted, not
much fun if you do not have a straight
shot at them and not our favorite
fastener (Figure 1). We change these
out for Allen socket heads or there is
a third party kit that supplies knurled
finger screws (Figure 2).
Getting the end cap loose can be as
easy as finding an edge that overhangs
the pump housing and pulling against
it with a screw driver. What you want
to take care of is the mating surface
between the end plate and the pump
face. Driving a screw driver or chisel
with a hammer between the plate
and pump stands a good chance
of scratching one or both of these
surfaces. If there are no overhangs and
you are sure that your only option is
wedging them apart, then use a thin,
flexible putty knife with much care.
Tap it gently with a hammer, keeping
the putty knife’s blade as straight as
possible so it will not buckle.
Assuming you do not need to
rebuild the whole pump, you are at the
last step in the taking it apart phase.
Before removing the impeller note the
direction of rotation. If you don’t get
this part it’s not a big thing as the blades
will flip over in the first revolution. To
remove or extract the impeller it is best
to use an impeller puller (Figure 3). If
you are up the creek without a puller,
there are other paddles. You can grab
August 2014

more or less opposite blades on the
impeller with two needle nose pliers
and pull straight out, or a much more
risky way is with two screwdrivers
at about 45°angles opposite each and
carefully pry the impeller out. With the
screwdrivers you can mar the mating
surface on the pump housing. This
could cause the pump to leak.
So now it is time to put the new
impeller in place. Lubricate the
inside of the pump. There are at least
two schools of thought: dish soap
or something that will dissipate in
water or a light amount of grease. We
go for the grease because it will give
protection to the impeller during initial
priming of the pump. Compress the
blades to decrease the diameter of the
impeller so it will be easier to press
it into the pump housing. A zip or
cable tie will hold the blades until the
impeller is part of the way in. Then
snip it with a pair of diagonal cutting
pliers. Use your fingers to work the
impeller the rest of the way into place.
Before sealing up the pump,
inspect the end plate. It must be flat and
without scratches. The old gasket needs
to be removed, but with care as not to
scratch the plate. Put a little grease on
the end plate to hold the gasket in place
until you get it into position. Thread
the screws into the pump housing by
hand. How tight should these screws
be? Look in your engine manual, it
should give you a torque setting. To
Figure 2: The knurled finger screws
supplied with this kit allow for easy
removal and replacement. There are many
other benefits with this kit.
See http://www.speedseal.com/
SpeedsealLife/SpeedsealLife.html
use this you will need a torque wrench.
If you don’t have a torque wrench, you
can tighten until they feel firm, but do
not over tighten. It is better to be too
loose than to break off a screw; you can
always tighten them more to stop any
leak.
Now that you can change your
impeller, what could cause it to fail in
the first place? Basically it needs to be
fed and cared for or it will not do its
job. The feeding is simple – it needs
a continuous flow of water at the
intake port as we have already said.
The typical things that cause this not
to happen are: someone leaves the
seacock closed, seaweed or a plastic
bag gets sucked up against the screen
that covers the thru-hull fitting, or the
raw water strainer gets plugged with
sea grass or whatever. Many boats have
inadequately sized raw water strainers,
especially in the Pacific Northwest,
with our plethora of sea grass, flotsam
and jetsam. Once we even had a small
fish wedge itself in the seacock.
Unless you notice the change in
the sound of the exhaust, the impeller
will normally destroy itself before the
temperature gauge or alarm will alert
B
A
you. The real answer here is a flow
alarm (Figure 4). This will give you time
to shut down your engine before the
pump runs dry and heats up, breaking
off blades, sending bits of rubber into
the heat exchanger tube bundle and
frying the seal that keeps the water in
the pump on the shaft side.
If the seal leaks, it needs to be
replaced. In a moment of need,
however, you can probably live with
the amount of water that will enter
the boat. Many pumps have steel ball

puller shown here is the
recommended tool for
removing the impeller.

bearings which will not take kindly to
the saltwater so this should be attended
to at earliest moment possible.
On the care side you are looking
for that familiar green color that signals
corrosion. Leaking saltwater either
from the end plate, the shaft seal or the
hose connections means you need to
act. If it is from the hose, it could be the
clamps or the hose that have exceeded
their useful life, see 48° North article,
March 2011 on hose clamps. A leaking
end plate will require the removal and

probably replacement of the gasket
or O-ring and possibly the end plate.
Corrosion can pit the edges of the end
plate. In an emergency you may be able
to seal it with a new gasket and liquid
gasket – do not get a lot of this inside
the pump. If you do not have a new
gasket, old charts make good gasket
material. There is an after-market cover
available, mentioned above, which
has a modified end plate bearing that
extends the live of the impeller and
end plate, while allowing the pump
to run dry for more time to help avert
meltdown. It allows you to remove the
cover blindfolded and without tools
(Figure 2).
In conclusion, carry a spare
impeller, gasket or O-ring, end plate,
or complete pump in that order of
importance. Also, an impeller puller
and the tools you need to remove the
end plate, an Allen wrench for example,
and something to pry off the end plate.
For raw water you want neoprene
impellers. If it is an impeller pump with
a different job, bilge pump etc, that will
see a lot of petroleum products, use
nitrile. Both Jabsco and Johnson have
charts matching up your impeller with
a part number. Here is a link to Jabsco
www.xylemflowcontrol.com/files/
MTC_12_Impeller_Replacement.pdf.
We
advise
installing
the
aforementioned engine cooling water
flow sensor/alarm because if you
overheat the impeller, running it dry,
you also overheat the seal and destroy
it.
Enough gloom and doom. Replace
the impeller regularly and, again,
mount a flow alarm. Have peace of
mind and go sailing – enough of all this
engine stuff.

The Artist’s View – Secrets of the Salish Sea
Sketches and story by Larry Eifert
Appearing top-heavy with an over-sized bill and
head, belted kingfishers are common around the Salish
Sea. Three reasons for this are the abundance of sandy
banks suitable for nesting burrows, small fish for them
to catch and overhanging trees and boat masts upon
which to perch while looking for a mate. One of the few
bird species where the female is more brightly colored
than the male, never-the-less, during breeding season
these birds seriously defend their territory against all
other kingfishers. Learn to listen for their long rattle call
- like marbles in a tin can, and you won’t have to see the
bird to know it’s there.
Kingfishers pair up for a season when the male’s
love-offering of a tasty morsel is accepted by the female.
After all the folderol, they choose a sandy bank and both
build a nest in about a week, then rear the five to eight
young together, sharing the duties. The nest burrow is
usually near water and can be up to eight feet deep, sloping it slightly upwards to the nest, possibly to keep it dry.
As nestlings, young can digest all bones and fish scales
given them, apparently to keep the burrow clean and
smell-free from predators. Body chemistry changes as
they grow, and regurgitated pellets under roosting trees
can show you what kingfishers eat.

Recommended Clean Vessel Act
Awards for Fiscal Year 2014
US Fish and Wildlife Service Awards
$16.6 Million in Grants to Support
Recreational Boating and Clean Water
A total of $16.6 million in grants
will be awarded to 21 states under
the Clean Vessel Act (CVA) program,
the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
announced today.
Since the first CVA awards were
made in 1993, the Service has awarded
more than $200 million to states
to fund construction, replacement,
renovation and maintenance of
facilities that assist recreational
boaters in properly disposing of onboard septic waste. The program also
provides information and education
about the importance, benefits and
availability of pump-outs.
“Clean water is a fundamental
need for both people and wildlife,
and a perfect example of how the
fates of both are intertwined,” said
Service Director Dan Ashe. “Clean
Vessel Act grants not only help
ensure that clean drinking water,
sustainable ecosystems and healthy
recreational areas are accessible to the
American people, they also provide
a substantial economic benefit for
local communities. These grants are
another fine example of the Fish and
Wildlife Service’s commitment to
ensuring our natural resources are
conserved and protected for future
generations”
Funds for the CVA program
are provided annually from the
Sport Fish Restoration and Boating
Trust Fund, which is maintained
through the collection of fishing
tackle manufacturer excise taxes and
boat and fishing import duties, as
well as motorboat and small engine
fuel taxes. Funds are competitively
disbursed to states, the District of
Columbia, Puerto Rico, American
Samoa, Guam, the Commonwealth of
38
the Northern Mariana Islands and the
U.S. Virgin Islands for up to 75 percent
of project costs, with non-federal
partners providing the remaining 25
percent. The Service waives the first
$200,000 in matching requirements
for the insular areas of American
Samoa, Guam, the Commonwealth
of the Northern Mariana Islands and
the U.S. Virgin Islands. Sub-grantees
often include local municipalities and
private marinas.
In addition to traditional ondock pump-outs, funded projects
include pump-out boats that travel
in designated harbors to make the
sewage collection process more
efficient and convenient. Some states
also install floating restrooms in areas
where boaters congregate and no
restrooms are available.
“As one of the many programs
supported by the Sport Fish
Restoration and Boating Trust Fund,
CVA-funded pump-outs help boaters
fulfill our commitment to clean
water. After all, our 520,000 BoatU.S.
members are not only on the water,
their families often swim in it and eat
fish from it. Most importantly, widely
available, accessible and working
pump-out facilities make it easier to
deal with a basic need and get back
to enjoying time on the water,” said
BoatU.S. President Margaret Bonds
Podlich.

the addition of telemetry equipment.
The 2014 project will focus on the
San Juan Islands, which is identified
as an area of heavy boating use
with limited pumpout service.
Washington updated the statewide

A look at iPad-based navigation
Adding this technology to your boating experience
could simply be a matter of installing a new app(s) on
a device that you’ve long since mastered.
By David Schmidt
In 2007, I joined the Puma Ocean
Racing team for an offshore-training
session aboard their Volvo Open 70,
Avanti (ex. ABN Amro Two). While
our bow-breaking ride is a different
tale, watching the late, great Mark
Rudiger navigate Avanti up New York
City’s East River and under its many
bridges using a then-state-of-the-art
B&G (bandg.com) tablet left a strong
impression of the increased situational
awareness that tablet navigation
affords.
The drawback? Cost
Fast forward to 2011, and I found
myself aboard a Protector 40, ripping
through skinny-water passes at 30-plus
knots on Vancouver Island’s northeast
coast, a paper chart splayed across my
lap and a large-screen Multi Function
Display (MFD) on the dashboard. Peter
skillfully drove while Ralph tapped on
his 3G-enabled, first-generation iPad
(apple.com), which was running a
Navionics (navionics.com) navigation
app. Ralph had full access to boatspeed,
heading and location information,
often identifying hazards faster than I
could.
Much like my experience aboard
Avanti, I was impressed with the
possibilities. The difference? Cost.
While dedicated tablets are great
at running complex routing programs,
they’re expensive, tricky to replace and
require specific program knowledge.
The iPad’s 2010 introduction was an
game-changer, offering commoditylevel tablets that can run a vast
menu of specialized apps. While
iPad navigation has some inherent
limitations, it offers a refreshingly
simple approach to navigation in an
affordable, user-friendly package. This
article looks at the advantages of iPad
nav, how it works, its drawbacks, and
where it’s headed.
cloud-store data, or—should your iPad
get pilfered—remotely track the device
and/or wipe all data.
“The sheer convenience of the
iPad makes sense,” said Don Black,
the Global Senior VP of Sales and
Marketing and Business Development
at Navionics (navionics.com). “There’s
still a place for PCs aboard, for
example if you want to run complex
routing programs, or if you need a
keyboard. The difference is fun. iPads
are a different way to enjoy boating
activities.”
Advantages
“The iPad has become an all-in-one
computing device,” said Robin Martel,
the president of Northport System, Inc.
(Fugawi Software; fugawi.com). “It
does many tasks with a unified user
interface. Plus, its ubiquitous Internet
connection gives owners a cheap, easy
way to get online. Chart updates can
be pushed to the iPad [via the App
Store], and users can easily share trip
information using social-media.”
While still not “cheap,” iPads are
far less expensive ($399 to $929) than
dedicated tablets, and their diminutive
size makes them highly portable.
Apple’s omnipresent online and brickand-mortar presence ensures easy
replacement, and with iCloud, you can
Nuts and Bolts
So
how
does
iPad-based
navigation work? Bundled within
the iPad’s operating system (OS) is a
feature called Location Services, which
pinpoints the iPad’s location on a chart
using GPS, cellular or WiFi networks.
A navigation app provides the crucial
interface between the hardware and the
cartography, and allows users to easily
source and purchase new, app-friendly
charts. While the iPad is available in
both 4G LTE-enabled and WiFi-only
versions, GPS is only available on 4G
LTE-enabled models, which can also
access cell towers to determine their
position if WiFi isn’t available.
Once Location Services fixes its
position, a user can drag, pinch and

scroll to different areas, examining
cruising
options
and
changing
waypoints. All heading and speed
information is available onscreen,
and (app-depending), the iPad can
access information from other onboard
instruments (e.g., GPS or AIS) via the
yacht’s WiFi network. And because
the OS supports multitasking, other
apps are just a few taps away. “iOS
is a powerful UNIX-based operating
system—it handles all of the iPad’s
touch input and the graphic display,”
says Rich Ray, the President and Owner
of GPSNavX (gpsnavx.com), makers
of the popular iNavX app. This is a
huge advantage over dedicated tablets,
as Apple has invested cutting-edge
Silicon Valley resources into ensuring
that the iPad’s touch interface is silkysmooth, and that its high-resolution
display can tackle all graphic demands.
So what does a nav app look like?
“It’s a duplicate of what you’d see on a
MFD, except there’s no radar overlay,”
said Ray. Much like MFDs, nav apps
can display both raster and vector
charts, with certain apps excelling at
particular chart types. Also, because
Because iPads have
limited flash-memory space,
users typically download
germane charts beforehand.
Depending on the app, some
charts are free, while others
are pay-to-play.
charts are often large, high-resolution
files, and because iPads have limited
flash-memory space (the biggest iPad
Air only has a 128 GBs of storage),
users typically download germane
charts beforehand. Depending on the
app, some charts are free, while others
are pay-to-play.
The true test of any app’s success
is its User Experience (UX), AKA as its
Graphical User Interface (GUI). “The
UX is a core convention of any app,”
said Black. “Routine functions need to
be easy to get to, and they need to be
intuitive to use.”
The ease of delivering updates via
the App Store, coupled with features
such as real-time user feedback, has
created an environment of “crowd
sourcing,” where users can provide
input and information for updates. For
example, some nav apps allow a user
to note incorrectly demarcated rocks
or buoys. While the rock’s location
remains unchanged on the actual chart,
crowd-sourced information can be
compiled and pushed out via updates;
users can employ this information as an
optional layer. “The biggest challenge
is the frequency of the updates,”
advises Black. “It’s a never-ending
development program.”

there’s sheer computing horsepower.
“There’s still a big performance gap
between PCs and iPads,” said Martel.
“But the expectations are different. In
the PC world, people want a featurerich program that does everything.
On the mobile side, people are used
to having a cluster of applications—
different apps for navigating, getting
weather information and route
sharing.”
Future Trends
Moving forward, Ray predicts that
we’ll continue to see universal tablets
whose raison d’être hovers between
utilitarian function and entertainment.
Moreover, we can also expect a huge
uptick in processing power and RAM.
“We’ll also see more tasks offloaded
to server farms, where the processing
can be done,” says Ray. This trend
has already started with Apple’s new
voice-command-controlled Siri virtual
assistant, which is now a standard
feature on all current-generation iPads.
So will nav apps ever usurp PCbased navigation, MFDs or paper
charts? “I don’t look at the iPad as a
navigation device, but rather a tool
to extend the fun past the boat,” said
Black. While Black admits there’s no
way of knowing where the technology
will be in five years, he strongly
advises nav-app users to cruise with
a full compliment of paper charts, a
good MFD and the right chart kits.
Others agree. “It depends on where
you are and your familiarity with the
waters,” offers Ray. “It’s fine to use an
iPad instead of a PC, but you need a
dedicated MFD, and you really want a
paper chart.”
While limitations exist, there’s no
question that iPad-based navigation
compliments any nav station. The
best part? Given the iPad’s soaring
popularity, adding this technology to
your boating experience could simply
be a matter of installing a new app(s)
on a device that you’ve long since
mastered.

On a typical Fijian
sunny day last August,
we set sail from the
island of Makogai on
the start of our passage
thorough Bligh Waters.
This body of water
named after Captain
William Bligh, is a
shallow marine area of
approximately 3,700
sq. miles of water in
western Fiji east of the
Yasawa Islands. The
first Europeans to visit
the area were the Dutch
explorer Abel Tasman in
1643 and James Cook,
who later sailed through the area in 1774,
but it is Bligh who is most commonly
credited with the “discovery” of Fiji,
having sailed through Fiji in 1789
following the mutiny on the H.M.S.
Bounty and again in 1792.

reef strewn Vatu-I-Ra passage we

The AquaDrive system solves a

that marine engines are installed on soft

The very logic of AquaDrive is
inescapable. An engine that is vibrating
on soft mounts needs total freedom of
movement from its propshaft if noise
and vibration are not to be transmitted to
the hull. The AquaDrive provides just
this freedom of movement. Tests

To say that I was an inexperienced sailor in
May of 1977 was only half right, in fact I
was both inexperienced and incredibly stupid
— and I can prove it.
On a sunny Sunday afternoon in
that month of May, accompanied by
a beautiful young woman who I had
been dating for only a few weeks, I
boarded my newly acquired sailboat,
Gull, in order to move it from C dock to
J dock at the Shilshole Bay Marina. My
sublet on C dock had expired and my
44
boat had to be moved to the guest dock
until I could find a more permanent
moorage. It was to be a simple task,
perhaps taking no more than ten
minutes to motor it the hundred yards
to the north. The young woman I was
with knew nothing about boats, so it
was my plan to dazzle her with my
August 2014
www.48North.com
new toy and my great knowledge of
sailing (even though we weren’t going
to do any sailing (or so I thought),
and we were dressed more for a nice
brunch than a sail).
I untied the Gull, started the motor,
pushed off from our slip on the south
side of C dock, and backed out into the
waterway between C and B dock. I
shifted into forward and immediately
heard a loud clank and the engine
stopped (I learned later that the nut
had fallen off of the fly wheel and had
wedged in the gears - the motor was
dead). What followed was the first in
a long line of increasingly brainless
decisions.
No problem, I thought, this was
my chance to really impress the young
lady - I’ll just go ahead and sail the boat
down to J dock! It was a relatively calm
day, with a steady breeze out of the
south, and since I was going south-tonorth, I could sail downwind until I got
to J dock, then turn into the waterway
between J and K dock, and then luff up
into a slip on the north side of the dock.
A little information about Gull - I
had purchased her only four months
earlier and it was my first sailboat.
My sailing experience consisted of six
lessons at the Seattle Sailing Club. Gull
was a fine William Garden designed
Bristol Bay conversion, a 30’, woodhulled ketch. A necessary part of the
conversion was the addition of an
eight-inch in diameter round timber
bowsprit (this small fact becomes
important later in this story).
I quickly raised only the mainsail,
as I figured I would just be sailing
downwind. I raced back to the tiller
(Gull had a basic tiller, and a large
rudder with a scallop detail that was
big enough to get a good handhold
on if you happened to be in the water
— another small fact that becomes
important later — and I smartly
sailed out of the waterway and turned
north along the breakwater to J dock.
Everything was going as planned. I
sailed past J dock and headed into the
waterway and spotted a slip about
halfway down. There was a small
motor boat in the front part of the slip,
but the slips on J dock, as you all know,
were deep enough for two boats.
I sailed close to K dock before
turning up into the wind so there
would be enough time for the boat to
slow down. But just as I turned to the
slip and into the wind, the motor boat
started backing out and blocked any
possible entrance to the slip!
No problem, I thought (foolishly),
I’ll just continue the turn, sail back out
to the breakwater, head up into the
wind for a few yards, do a smart U-turn,
head back downwind to get enough
speed, and repeat the maneuver into
the now vacant slip. I am, after all, a
professionally trained sailboat driver,
and I own my own sailboat, and this
girl will soon be rendered speechless
by my prowess (in fact, she was).
Unfortunately, I failed to consider
four things: 1) I only had the mainsail
up, 2) Gull, with it’s foot-wide concrete
keel, didn’t point well under the best
of circumstances, 3) The water current
(something I had no experience with)
was also moving swiftly from south to
north, 4) the wind had stiffened. So, as
I turned back out of the waterway, Gull
picked up speed, and as I tried to point
up, I realized too late that it wouldn’t
go that direction.
At this point I could see disaster
looming. I yelled for the young woman
to run to the front of the boat, jump
into the water and position her body
between the breakwater and the boat
to soften the blow as the boat hit the
rocks. We were moving fast now, and
if she had been as stupid as I was,
and had actually done what I asked,
she probably would have been killed.
Instead she just gave me a look that
said “Are you nuts?”
A moment later we hit the
breakwater hard. I never thought to
loosen the mainsheet, so between the
current and the wind, we were laid over
and pinned against the large boulders.
Now this was happening on one of the
first warm Sundays in Seattle, and on
this day there were dozens of people
walking the guest dock. We started to
attract quite a crowd of onlookers, and
as things progressed, so did the crowd.

I raced to the front of the boat to
see if there were any gaping holes in
the hull. Fortunately, it looked intact.
Just then a large power boat pulled
alongside and tossed me a line in
order to tow me off the rocks. Once
again, I tumbled further down the
food chain with yet another, this time
inconceivably stupid decision. Rather
than actually attaching the rope to any
part of the boat, I simply stood on the
bow and held the rope in my hands,
thinking (I use the term loosely here)
that the boat would react like a water
ski and move forward because I was
leaning back. The power boat gunned
it on my command of “Okay” and
the rope whizzed through my hands
removing several layers of skin. The
power boat skipper gave me a confused
look, shook his head a little sadly, and
headed away.
My next brilliant idea was to
jump into the water with my clothes
(and shoes) on and somehow push
the boat off of the breakwater. The
crowd continued to grow. I jumped in,
wedged my body between the front
of the boat and the large rocks, and
pushed. After a few attempts, I finally
got good leverage and the front of the
boat broke away from the breakwater.
I will remind you here that I knew
nothing of water currents, and I still
had not loosened the mainsheet. So, as
soon as the current and the wind got
on the other side of the bow, Gull took
off and peeled away from the rocks
heading back toward the slips. The
boat started moving fast, and I’m still
in the water, and the young lady is still
standing in the cockpit looking at me. I
lunged out and luckily was able to grab
the scallop on the rudder as Gull broke
free of the breakwater and picked up
speed. Now in 1977, I was a young
man, skinny, in shape, limber, and at
that particular moment I was carrying
a near lethal dose of adrenalin, so
somehow I managed to pull myself up
from the rudder and into the cockpit - a
near impossible feat. My recollection is
that the young lady remained planted
in the cockpit looking at me, but she
may have helped me aboard.
At this point we are more than halfway across the main waterway and
moving fast at a slight angle to north directly at the face of K dock. I’ll never
forget what I saw next, as I emerged

from the water and into the cockpit.
Those of you who are familiar with the
history of boating in the Northwest are
undoubtedly familiar with the name
H. W. McCurdy. Mr. McCurdy could
well be called the scion of boating and
shipbuilding in the Northwest. He
owned the largest shipyard, he was the
past president of the historical boating
society, and he had many other honors
and titles too numerous to name. He
was the man.
He was also the owner of the
beautiful 96’ motor yacht, Blue Peter.
And, since it was a fine Sunday
afternoon, he just happened to be
enjoying a formal dinner on board
Blue Peter with a large contingent
of his family. I will never forget Mr.
McCurdy’s expression as he looked
down from the rail while I tried to push
Gull out of the hole we had punched in
Blue Peter’s hull. He was in a grey suit
with a blue tie, and he leaned over
and said to me, in what could only be
described as understated, “Young man,
what do you think you are doing?”
I have no idea what I replied, or
if I replied, but I pushed the bowsprit
free of Blue Peter and we drifted north
on the current to the face of L dock,
where one of the many onlookers who
were observing the world’s stupidest
boater, tossed me a line and we were
finally secured and unable to cause any
further damage.
After tying up, and without
consulting with the young woman
(who I left still standing in the cockpit),
I ran down the dock and over to K dock
in order to get my punishment from
Mr. McCurdy, only to be confronted
with a locked, secured gate. In those
days, the locked gate was surrounded
with a chain-link frame, and topped
with barbwire so no one could get by
without a key. Still overdosed with
adrenalin, I immediately climbed over
the top of the gate, chain-link, and
barbwire, catching the inside of my
thigh on a barb and ripping my pants
and a good portion of my leg.
A minute later I was standing in
the salon of the Blue Peter, soaking wet,
bleeding into my shoe, and conversing
with the great man himself. He could
not have been more gracious and kind
- perhaps the greatest relief of my life
as by now I had expected to be keelhauled or at least severely beaten.
But, instead of punishment, we made
arrangements.
Though relived, it took many
more hours, and several drinks, for
my breathing, blood pressure and
adrenalin levels to return to normal.
Gull’s motor was repaired the
next week while moored on the face
of L dock. I got a mask and fins and
dived down to inspect the hull for the
expected deep gouges. Surprisingly,
there was no major damage, though I
suspect that if it had had a fiberglass
hull, the Gull might have sunk right on
the breakwater. Mr. McCurdy had Blue
Peter turned around on K dock and was
able to repair the hole from the dock
with his own craftsman. He charged
me only for the materials, though the
Port Orford Cedar did cost me about
$1,200.
I went on to sail Gull for several
more years, taking two long trips
into the northern waters including a
harrowing passage to the end of the
Bute Inlet. I got a little smarter about
sailing. I have no idea where Gull is
now, or if it is even still afloat.
Blue Peter, of course, remains one
of Seattle’s most prominent yachts and
www.48North.com
August 2014
can often be seen in the opening day
parade.
But the most surprising and
amazing outcome of that eventful
day was that the young woman, who
so stoically stood in the cockpit and
observed first hand my incredible
stupidity, later agreed to marry me,
and later still became the mother of our
four above-average children.
And in case you were wondering this is a completely true story. I’ve got
witnesses.
Kurt Dahl later went on to start
an unusual company in the Boatworld
building on Westlake Ave. called
Boatscope. For those of you that don’t
remember, Boatscope was a preview of
what now goes on in that interweb thing.
He is now writing essays on our looming
sustainability crisis that can be found on
many websites, and has recently written
two novels: “The Eden Proposition,” and
“An American Famine.”

Laser Master North Americans
I
t may not have been typical Gorge
conditions, but “mature” Laser
sailors (35 years old and over) enjoyed
the Master North Americans over the
July 11-13 weekend at Cascade Locks,
Oregon. Charlie Buckingham and
Michael O’Brien became the new Laser
Master North American champions,
Buckingham in the standard rig and
O’Brien in the Radial.
The event came on the heels of
the Columbia River Gorge Racing
Association (CGRA)-organized Gorge
Laser Performance clinic, and the
48
famous downwind Gorge Blowout
Race. Both were well attended and
deemed by all to be successes.
Buckingham sailed a strong series,
but had to survive a protest from the
race committee in one race. In second
place, by a mere one point, was Seattle
sailor, but Gorge regular, Dan Falk,
who was able to match his usual strong
heavy air performance in the lighter
conditions. Other Puget Sound area
sailors in the top ten of the full rig fleet
were Joe Burcar and Greg Jackson.
O’Brien’s victory may come as a

surprise to those outside his home
fleet of Seattle, but not to his fleet
competitors. He’s been diligently
working at Lasers for about six years,
improving both his performance and
that of those around him. He was
pushed hard by master Keith Davids
who was only two points behind.
No races were completed the
final day, though one was started and
abandoned as the full rig fleet had
picked up a zephyr en masse and were
headed for one of the most interesting
leeward gate roundings ever.

Friday Nights in August are
about to get hotter. The Friday Night
Sail/Fest returns to Shilshole Bay. This
is a free fun event for all sailors. Bring
your friends, your business associates,
kids and kid’s friends for a fun filled
evening on the water and ashore.
After the fun race/sail everyone
is invited to the Shilshole Bay Marina
Plaza at the head of I Dock for free
hot dogs/beer, wine, sodas, and the
famous Sail/Fest Raffles. Bring the kids
there is no telling what prizes might
be waiting for them.
The racing is designed for everyone
to come out and sail for fun. No
ratings, just show up for a sail. There
will be three starts: fast boats, not as
fast boats and dinghy’s. First start is
at 1900 hours and subsequent starts at
1905 hours and 1910 hours.
Only three rules: 1) Have Fun,
2) No Collisions, 3) Rules Of The Road
The first four Fridays in August:
1, 8, 15, 22. No race on the 29th due to
early sunsets.

The 44th Annual Shaw Classic is the
high point of summer sailing activities
in the San Juan Islands. All boats are
grouped into divisions depending
upon their type, class, and handicap
ratings. The divisions include multihulls,
unballasted centerboards, registered
PHRF boats and cruising sailboats of all
sizes and rigs.
The race starts and finishes in Friday
Harbor. The course permits rounding
Shaw Island either clockwise or counterclockwise. A navigation challenge,
currents, winds and projected boat
speed must be factored into an equation
to determine which way to round the
island. After the race, winners will be
announced at the traditional lasagna
dinner. For more information contact

North Sails
English Bay Scramble
August 16
Tiddly Cove’s annual North Sails
English Bay Scramble is the most
interesting and popular sailboat race
in Vancouver. It delivers a unique
combination of the strategic challenges
of a distance race, an open, lowintensity format, suitable to sailors of
all experience levels, and a legendary
after-party.
The Scramble is probably the only
race in the Lower Mainland where
independent thought actually pays off.
Nowhere else does splitting away from
your competition actually make sense
and where you can take a course that
is not taken by your competitors and
actually expect it to pay off in winning.

This will be the 41th annual running
of the Ton’s and Kelly O’Neil Cup.
Remember when everyone knew what
a TONNER was - 1/4 tonners, 1/2
tonners, 3/4 tonners, one tonners and
two tonners? Bellingham Yacht Club
celebrated these racing machines by
founding the Pacific International Ton
Championships (PITCH) way back in
1973…”When the breeze was up, it was
rock and roll pest control, all the way
down Bellingham Bay”… it’s still going
strong but today the boats are a bit more
stable and a bit more swift.
Open to all TON and non-TON boats
with a PHRF-NW certificate and/or
recognized One Design fleets. Then BYC
will crank up the barbie and the tunes and
hold a REGATTA of a party, Labor Day
Weekend, 2014. Thanks to title sponsor

Anacortes Yacht Club Signs Up For Bart’s Bash
September 21
The inaugural Bart’s Bash is a
sailing race to be run by yacht clubs
all around the world on behalf of the
Andrew Simpson Sailing Foundation.
I t w i l l t a k e p l a c e o n S u n d a y,
September 21, with Anacortes Yacht
Club as a sponsoring yacht club.
According to Sir Ben Ainslie, “It will
be the biggest race of all time.”
Andrew ‘Bart’ Simpson tragically
lost his life on May 9, 2013, when
Sweden’s 72' catamaran, Artemis
Racing, capsized in San Francisco Bay
during a practice for the America’s
Cup competition. The Foundation is a
charity set up in Andrew’s memory to
inspire the next generation of young
people and to provide opportunities
for the underprivileged to sail.
A goal of Bart’s Bash is to set a
Guinness world record for “The Largest
Sailing Race in 24 hours at Multiple
Venues.” Yacht Clubs will each sail an
individual Bart’s Bash regatta at their
location. It will also be a community
fundraiser for youth sailing programs.
• Mail Scanning & Forwarding
• On-Site Mailboxes (Shilshole)
• Business and Mailing Services
• Workspace Rentals
• Notary
Bart’s Bash in Anacortes will be
sailed on Fidalgo Bay. It is a sailing
event open to all types of boats, large
and small, all levels of sailors and
wannabe sailors, those with experience
and those with none. It is designed to
be a fun day on the water with prizes
based on participation.
Pre-registration will be available
on-line or in person at the AYC
Clubhouse on the day of the Bart’s Bash
regatta. A continental breakfast will
kick off the event. Novices and nonracers are encouraged to participate.
After sailing there will be a Bart’s
Bash Barbie and a Bart’s Bash Dash
for Dessert. ‘Cash for the Bash’ will be
an auction of unique America’s Cup
memorabilia with all proceeds going
to local youth sailing.
Bring your life jackets (we have
extras if you need one) and your sense
of fun! For more info on the AYC Bart’s
Bash contact mturner@oracleracing.
