When 21 boats for Friday night and 65 boats for Saturday night come out for The Great Circle Raft up to kick off the 2007 cruising season, all you can feel is pride in our club. We want to personally thank Past Commodore Hal Steward for his hard work and dedication to the circle. Also a special thank you goes to Ladd Caine and Tom Fagan for working anchors and lines. It was amazing to watch the hard working pirates bringing our circle together. In its finest tradition the Blimp passed over once, twice and than again several more times. I for one am looking forward to checking out their photos. Rae of Stingrae. We greatly appreciate them, Thank you Bob & Dee. One by one the circle unfolded. Several boats ran aground and those that could be were helped off by Carl and Suzie of Glory Daze, Jake LaRue of Pi, Paul Gagnon of Diva, along with Michael and Brenda of Magic. We look forward to a great year and remember you too can earn the 2007 cruising flag. It is quite simple come out and enjoy your club events, and remember you earn extra points for hosting. If you would like to host please call Brenda & Michael of Magic at 954-545-1496 or Denise & Ladd of Blue at 954-942-1288. FROM THIS... Once the circle was closed all of the boats sounded their horns, conchs and anything else to express our appreciation for all the hard work Hal and his pirates did bringing us together. Our past cruising chairs Jeff & Lynn Kunkel were unable to attend and so Randy and Julie Tice gladly joined the new cruising chairs Denise & Ladd Caine along with Brenda & Michael Duvall to turn over the past to the future. We once again want to thank Jeff, Lynn, Randy, and Julie for the great times we have had in this past year cruising events. All dinghies were called out and soon a dinghy parade with the new cruising flags flying saluted the circle. As all the dinghies retired to their respective boats, folks cleaned up enjoyed dinner. After the respite the brave circumnavigated, while neighboring boats enjoyed each other's company and the circling sailors. Commodore Tim and his hardy side kick Ken checked the anchors and all of us sleepy sailors were tucked away by midnight or so. Sunday morning dawned with the traditional Bloody Mary's supplied by Bob & Dee ...TO THIS Thanks HISC Members - WE DID IT!

Come one, come all… every Wednesday evening for ten races, starting on May 2nd at 1900 (7 pm for you landlubbers) we will have a race for two classes, the fast boats in one class and the not-so-fast boats in the other class! If you have a preference, let me know. The format will be exactly the same as last year, and for many years before that, so don't be shy, get your crew together and plan on it. One big difference from past years is that we are not going to try to have races during the first two weeks of July due to the fact that so many boats are over at Regatta Time in Abaco or out of the area on cruises of their own. SAILING WITH GOODYEAR BLIMP EMPLOYEES by Dennis Tynan, Soulmate Twenty Goodyear blimp employees enjoyed a day of sailing on HISC sailboats on Monday March 19. The wind was blowing up to 25 knots but four Club members, Jack Dailey (Cracker Jack), Tom Fagan (Zebulon), John Sammons (Joy Ride) and Randy Tice (Joie de Vivre) used their boats take the enthusiastic employees for a ride. The day started with the boats arriving at Dennis Tynan's dock at 11:00 AM. The Goodyear people started arriving at 11:30. We had a cookout and got to know our guests and set sail about 1:00. Many of them were experiencing sailing for the first time. Conditions started getting a little worse and when more that a few started getting seasick we came in about 3:00. Since low tide became an issue Cracker Jack and Joy Ride dropped off their passengers and headed home. Zebulon and Joie de Vivre took a ride up the inter coastal and then came back to enjoy more food and drink with the young guests. We will have all the usual prizes… beer and t-shirts. We will do ten races with an overall prize for the series in both classes, Talk of Blimp rides, beer pong (if the ball lands in your cup you must chug) and kidding with the seasick victims went on and, with any luck, we will have a lot of fun for all. till the last of the people left around 7:30 at night. See you on the water! Many thanks to John and Judy Antweiler, Larry Winchell for helping cook, crew making our guests feel welcome. At one time I heard Judy say "Gee this is like a fraternity party. The Goodyear people all said they had a good time and enjoy taking pictures of our circle raftups. FRIDAY NIGHT SOCIAL MEETING PLACE: Lighthouse Cove Resort Tiki Hut on AIA at the end of N.E. 14th Street in Pompano. A pleasant setting, drinks and hors d'oeuvres. Happy Hour 6-7pm page 7 PENNER TILE, INC • Remodeling • Kitchen and Bath • Tile and Marble Licensed Residential Contractor (CRC-1326700) Broward & Palm Beach Counties - Since 1991 Peter G. Penner Page 8 561.265.0821 Programs by Paul Chasse, Cheerios April 12th, General Meeting Program This month Bob Kinnier will narrate to the Club his Photo Journal of his sail from the Baltic Sea to the Aegean Sea via the Rhine and Danube rivers. Bob was born and raised in Baltimore, MD, spending his summers on the Chesapeake. He graduated from Purdue University with a degree in Civil Engineering and later earned an MBA from California State University. His boating career spans almost 60 years. In 2001 he sold his steel fabrication business and sailed away from Milwaukee, WI, in his Slocum 43 for a long term voyage around the world. His goal was not so much to sail around the world but more to see the world from the deck of his cruising vessel. So far, Bob has more than 20,000 miles under his keel. He sailed across the Atlantic in 2003. He then cruised the British Isles in 2004 and navigated the Baltic Sea in 2005. Last year he sailed from the Baltic up the Rhine River and down the Danube to the Aegean Sea. This trip turned out to be his most challenging voyage which is the subject of the evening's presentation. We hope you will all plan to attend. It will be an enjoyable viewing and learning voyage.

I am especially happy that Ken Scott is my co-chair and that Elizabeth Knickerbocker has offered to head up race committee organizing. I am always grateful for the Fleet Captains, Larry Winchell, Peter Wilkinson and Jack Dailey as their assistance is really appreciated those times when the decision to postpone or cancel a race arises. And, how can we race without race results and trophies? That is where Cindy Cowan comes in. Then the after race parties need a person like Judy Whittaker who is heading that up this year. There are other behind the scene people like Jamie Cowan who serves on protest committee and is our PHRF and Florida Sailing Association Representative. Then there are the special events like the socials that Judy and John Antweiler organize, and the Old Port Cove hosts Dianne and Ken Voss. Of course we cannot forget a whole series of Beer Can races. Thanks to Jamie and Cindy Cowan and fund raiser Tom Garvey this is always a great program. Much gratitude goes to Larry Geller for letting us use Plush Toy for the Beer Can Committee boat. Let us not forget that critical to the racing program are the buoy setters. Thanks to Dan Meyers and Carl Wehe we have marks to round! Last month's general meeting was the Annual Skipper's Meeting where the race packets were distributed and the 2007 race schedule was discussed. If you did not get a packet please contact Ken Scott or Hal Steward. You must complete the forms in this packet to be able to race with our HISC program. I might mention at this time that racing with HISC is such a HOOT! We have such a flexible group of sailors and classes that racers can cruise and cruisers can race. So don't be intimidated if you have a full library, wardrobe and enough backup parts to rebuild your boat, you can STILL RACE Race Report continued on page 12 page 11 Race Report continued from page 11 If you are interested in helping out with Race committee (sometimes on a boat and sometimes from the beach) please call Elizabeth Knickerbocker. This is a great way to get the understanding of the rules of racing from a different perspective. You are always invited to the after race party and if you committee enough you are eligible for a race flag! Speaking of which, please submit your Race Flag entries by the May general meeting. Please limit your design to 3 colors and use a pennant shape. One more important person on our team: Crew Pool. Remember if anyone wants to crew or needs crew, the person to contact is Bob "Hutch" Hutcheson. See you out on the water. Races start at 11:00, and stay tuned to channel 68 for race instructions. Hal Steward Page 12 page 13 Page 14 page 15 Trawler Tracks ICW, Skipper Bob's guides are great for anchorages. Even the Waterway Guides are excellent since Tom and Mel Neale have become cruising editors. The full cruising editor staff is much more knowledgeable and "anchor friendly" these days. As for what anchors work best? I'm a brave soul and will offer an opinion. My preferences, in order: 1. Bruce 44: All chain. Anywhere on the ICW or Bahamas. Much of the time we swing on just the chain itself. 2. Fortress FX-37: Short chain with nylon rode. In mud (Chesapeake) or sand (Bahamas). Also our primary storm/ hurricane anchor. 3. Fortress FX-23: Stern anchor when you don't have space to swing. Or large circle raftups! By Capt Doug Knickerbocker, Yankee Rover 4. Delta Quickset: If wind is less than 20 knots. Otherwise ([email protected]) it's a PLOW, of which John Deere would be proud. Got rid Commodore Tim Leonard asked if I would provide a of ours. monthly article about the "trawler" interests in the club, so I don't like 2 anchors off the bow either, unless in severe storm here goes. I thought long and hard about what the content conditions. Enough said. should be (at least 5 minutes). I'll discuss some long term cruising issues that all of us face at one time or another and provide an update on where the trawler folks are and what Each of us trawler folk have different preferences for location they are doing. Comments are welcome. Just drop me an e- and frequency of anchoring. Some never go into marinas, and mail. This is not the end-all for trawler info, just one view. some practically spend all of their time in them. We are Remember, long term cruising isn't just a vacation, but an somewhere in between, depending on what we want to do experience in living in a relatively small space for an extended when we get there (be ashore to visit friends, dink ashore, or period of time (that didn't come out right, sounds like prison, just hang out). Being a techy, I keep stats on our frequency of anchoring, marinas, and free tie-ups. Over the past 7 which it isn't). years, our average is one-third anchoring, one-third of the I decided on the title "Trawler Tracks" because we always time in marinas, and the rest at a place to tie up gratis (often seem to be venturing into new and unfamiliar anchorages with with electric and water available - how much better can it "Yankee Rover" (Kadey-Krogen 39). If you cruise north, get?). With long distance cruising, both weather and mainthe tide becomes more critical as to when and where you tenance becomes issues and usually drive the decision as to venture for anchoring. You may get into an anchorage easily when and where to park, and for how long. I'll be writing at or near high tide but find a strange waterscape when you about weather and maintenance in future articles. Sufficient go to leave the next morning and may need to be VERY to say that maintenance is an ongoing day to day activity when precise in your exit route, ie. fog or narrow, unmarked living aboard for an extended period. Also, we'll have a channels. Local knowledge is always helpful. We always discussion about two of the greatest inventions going: bow have the GPS and chart plotter in track mode going into a thrusters and stabilizers. And then there is the subject of potential anchorage. If we can't get where we thought we paper charts vs electronic navigation systems and radar. And would like to anchor, it's lots easier to backtrack on your intracoastal vs off shore cruising. I'm open to other topics GPS track before the tide changes significantly. Also, leaving readers might suggest. the anchorage in the morning is easier regardless of the weather conditions. I save particularly tricky ones for future As I write this, we are getting more focused on preparation reference. Today's cruising guides are usually very good with for the coming cruise this summer. Plans aren't totally firmed anchoring info as well. Twenty years ago I wouldn't neces- up yet, but we are trying to link up with sailing friends up north sarily believe what I read. If you are traveling north on the to visit some of the Maine coast again. I vowed never to venture by water again into the land of fog. I guess I was kidding myself. I can taste the lobsters now! Currently, Page 16 Norm and Ann Dupont, on "Carpe Diem" (Grand Banks 34), are in the Exumas. Bill and Myke Oppold, on "Footprints" (DeFever 49), crossed over last week to West End and are in Marsh Harbor. One of the things we enjoy is linking up with other HISC trawler folk up north for a cruising point or two (or three). We sometimes meet in the strangest places. We like coming into an anchorage or marina and unexpectedly spotting an HISC burgee. Surprise... You never know who you'll meet in the next cove. HAM EXAMS May 22nd, Ft Lauderdale @ 6:00 PM The Gold Coast Amateur Radio Association will be giving ham exams for Technician, General, and Extra class licenses, on May 22nd, and hopefully every fourth Tuesday after that, at the Imperial Point Medical Center, 6401 N. Federal Highway, Ft. Lauderdale. In the cafeteria, look for the Private Room. Please arrive a few minutes early, and bring a pencil, ball point pen, a photo ID (driver's license, etc), and $14.00. Also bring the original and photocopy of your license and CSCEs, if any. Enter at the main entrance, and tell the guard you are attending the ham session. There is no longer a morse code requirement, so hams that have passed the written tests for either general or extra, but have not taken the morse code test, can upgrade by paying the $14.00 and presenting their CSCE. The CSCE must not be older than 365 days. PS: Anyone know where the picture of Yankee Rover was taken? Please call Gordon Groves, K3GG, at 954-783-8693, or e-mail ([email protected]) for any questions and to register for the exams.

In keeping with our club credo, to promote the interest in sailing, we are trying a new feature, the sharing of books between club members. If you have books on sailing, boating, or related topics; and you would be willing to loan them out to club members, please join our book exchange. The featured book this month is The Proving Ground by G.B. Knecht This book is a gripping account of the Sydney to Hobart race in which only 43 boats out of 115 entrants finished. Six men died, and the survivors were changed forever. Call Jane or Gordon Groves if you wish to borrow this book. We will maintain a list of books by category, both on the club web site, and a printed list for the "computer challenged". You can contact the owner of any book and borrow it for any amount of time agreed upon between you. Book owners will maintain their own list of personal books, and the borrowers who are using them. If you are willing to join this worthwhile venture, please send a list of the books you wish to lend to Webmaster, Mike Duvall, and a copy to Jane Groves.
