So it’s official, but of course
we knew it all along, UYC is
the club of the year, every
year.
We’ve had a fantastic
number of articles for our
first edition at the helm of
Tiller Talk. Reading through
them will remind you of
what makes the club so
good. If you missed the first
weekend of the season then
hopefully Tiller Talk will
help inspire you get out on
the water. Then of course
you will have had such a
good time sailing that you
will want to share it with
other members through the
pages of the next issue!
As the current guardians of
Tiller Talk we intend it to
remain true to Ian’s original
vision; the Members’
magazine fiercely
independent of the club
management. Any views
expressed are those of the
contributors and all we’re
doing is collecting them
together and running them
past the spellchecker
(Angela!) As Ian did, we aim
to include every article
submitted.
This issue slipped a little as
one half of the editorial had
extra work commitments and
the other extra holiday
commitments. We’ll leave it

UYC Do Little And Large
The Dinghy Show this year was brilliant as always. Many of
UYC’s keen sailors were to be found loitering in the aisles or
working stands.
One of the clubs largest and fastest boats was on display and
proved most popular. Mike, Lillian and the Tempest team had
obviously put some serious work in.
In contrast to the powerful Tempest, a little yellow UYC Mirror
was also a popular attraction with children and adults alike.

Right:
Mike Adams and friend on the Tempest
stand. Apparently the crew had been to
the trade stands asking for a ‘woolly bear
suit’ to go under his drysuit. As can
happen with all crews he didn’t get it quite
right …
Below:
Useful definitions from Richard Broad;
could be needed in the protest room if the
Mirror and Tempest ever meet on the
start line!
Flotsam and Jetsam
Did you know that there is a legal definition of these terms as follows;Flotsam - Floating wreckage of a ship or its cargo unintentionally lost overboard.
Jetsam - Parts of a ship or its cargo that is deliberately thrown overboard to lighten the vessel in a
time of distress and that sinks or is washed ashore.
There are two other legal definitions that are not so well known.
Lagan - Cargo that is lying on the bottom of the ocean, sometimes marked with a buoy that is
intended to be recovered.
Derelict - Cargo that is also lying on the bottom of the ocean which no one has any hope of
recovering.

UYC Open Day 28 May 11
Welcome to the start of another year of Junior & Cadet sailing at
Ullswater Yacht Club, with even more events packed in than
ever before.
This year’s UYC Open Day is being held on the 28 May 11,
Plans are being prepared to create an extra special day, so
please put it in your diary. The Cadets will be heavily involved
presenting the club at its best, with training in the morning and
cadet fun in the afternoon, which will be open to friends and
family to join in. We need a full list of activities for the open day.
Any suggestions and volunteers, please contact Ian Priestley or
myself.
Once again the Cadet fleet as grown, with more Toppers racing
in the 2010 season than the previous year and a greater
number of the adult prizes going to the Cadet & Junior
competitors. Let’s hope for the continued success of the fleet in
2011.
Changes to the 2011 Programme
The development of Cadet sailing at UYC has always been
through Toppers, which has provided excellent fleet racing,
which is to be encouraged. However, through the UYC training
and especially during sail-camp, it has become evident that a
double–hander should be offered in the Cadet racing
programme. Therefore, the Cadet series for 2011 will also be
open to Mirrors.
As ever, we will loose some familiar faces from the Cadet and
Junior fleets, we wish them well and look forward to some new
faces joining us.

New to the 2011 sailing programme is a dedicated Laser series.
This would be suitable for older Cadets & Juniors. The Laser
results will be extracted from the dinghy handicap fleet and
collated into a running total for the class throughout the whole
season. All types of conventional single-handed Lasers will be
included and adjustments made for PY handicaps. See the
2011 sailing programme for the Laser series dates.
For our Juniors, racing will continue within the Saturday T&D
series. These are held on the same days as the Cadet series.
Any class of dinghy can be sailed in this series. There has been
particular interest in the RS200 and we are hoping to see a few
more this year.
After the success of the single-hander series in 2010, the single
hander series will again be held on the same day as the island
races. It is for those who don’t have the legs for the island and
back and can be sailed in any single-hander, including Toppers.
The 2011 Parental Disclaimer for Cadets is available on the
UYC website, please print off, fill in the appropriate details and
bring to the first Cadet & Junior races on 23 Apr 11, Easter
Saturday.

Top Topper Tip
Can you afford to loose your rudder?
Letʼs not forget that your rudder, stock, tiller and extension
sink. So if youʼre turtled and your rudder stock parts with the
boat, itʼs going to the bottom. All for the sake of a short length
of rope, a typical example is shown below.

Calling All Budding Reporters
Last year we had a number of articles written by Junior and
Cadet sailors. This was an excellent way of reporting the many
varied aspects of the fleet. If you have something to say about
Junior and Cadet sailing, then Tiller Talk is the place to do it.
We would love to include your reports about events, top tips,
photos or comments.

How We Started Sailing
In 1959, David and Jo were students at Bradford
Technical College and one afternoon we skived-off
and went sailing with a friend in his GP14 at
Burwain Reservoir. We enjoyed this immensely but
never thought that we would aspire to owning a
boat. We got married in 1963 and seemed to go
separate ways on Saturdays – David played rugby
and Jo played hockey. So, we decided to take up a
hobby we could share, and after seeing a Mirror
Dinghy exhibited at a shop in Leeds, David drove to
Bell Woodworking in
Leicester and brought a
Mirror hull and spars
home on the car roof. He
subsequently varnished
the boat and put on all the
fittings. Sailing
instructions and how to
rig her were included.
The first attempt at
rigging her (on the back
lawn) did not go well, as
we did not understand
‘head to wind’ – so the
boat blew over.
Our launch was on the river Ouse near York at a
free slipway. All prepared in life jackets, old clothes
and pumps, we launched the boat, taking along the
sailing instructions in a plastic bag. All the dinghy
sailing pictures we had seen showed both helm and
crew sitting on the same side – so that’s what we
did. Needless to say, we chose the wrong side, and
a gust of wind had us swimming; and we lost the
sailing instructions! Not to be deterred, we joined
White Rose Sailing Association, on the river Ure
near Ripon, and learnt to sail. We entered the first
Mirror Open meeting at White Rose S.C. - and won.
Here is a ‘photo’ taken by The Daily Mirror.
Well, we moved to Reading and had 2 babies –
Philip and Christopher. David sailed a Merlin
Rocket on a gravel pit and later a Solo at Goring on
Thames S.C. where the ‘committee-bug’ bit him and
he became sailing secretary. We returned north in
4
1970 and joined Yeadon S.C., where David later
became commodore. Here, Jo was able to sail again,
first crewing for David in a National 12 and later in
her Mirror (yes, another Mirror) crewed by Phil; she
later crewed for Phil who was a much better sailor.
Having done some open meetings on bigger waters,
and the National 12 championships at Scarborough,
we realised that we should move to a bigger club,
and joined the newly-formed Leeds Sailing Club on
a reservoir in the
Yorkshire dales. There
we found some high
powered youngsters
including Lester Noble
and Roger Tushingham,
and several others.
Needless to say, we
didn’t win much in that
company, but David
joined yet another
committee and became
sailing secretary. Jo
bought a Laser and did
well in the lighter airs,
beating several young
guys who promptly retired with ‘gear failure’ when
she overtook them!!
We sailed various classes, including an Enterprise,
Fireball, Scorpion and Merlin Rocket at Leeds S.C.
and by the mid eighties, we had started sailing keel
boats. The first was a Prelude, which we later sold
to a family from Ullswater. This gave us the idea to
join UYC in 1988. We then bought a Hunter Europa
followed by a Hunter Sonata ‘Baby Grand’, which
are both still on the lake.
With his penchant for committees (and hard work)
David became sailing secretary and later
commodore of UYC.
Needless to say, we havn’t won any open meetings
since the Mirror meeting in 1965 – it must have been
beginner’s luck!

2011 SEASON
Like me, you have no doubt been eagerly awaiting
the start of the new season, but before we could get
started there were a number of tasks which needed
to be completed. The end of the 2010 November
series was rapidly followed by the onset of snow
and freezing weather. Whilst the skiers amongst us
were rushing off to the slopes a number of
important end of season tasks were left untouched.
The first of these was removal of the racing marks
from the lake. This resulted in five of the marks
losing their ground tackle in the ice and being
washed up on the lake shore. Fortunately these
were recovered. The rest were rescued by Bill and
need to be checked and moved to their correct
locations. In the meantime sinking weights will
have to be recast and to this end there was what will
be inevitably the first of a series of working parties
on Sat 5th March. I know a number of members
were at the dinghy show that weekend, but there
will be further sessions needed. For further details
see the website.
Our new committee boat also suffered during the
big freeze, and has undergone some mechanical
improvements during the close season. However,
she still requires some cosmetic TLC and to this end
the white wooden rubbing strakes need sanding
and repainting. In addition, the mooring needs
work to make tying Nina up easier Plans are in
hand for this, but again that important ingredient
“Member’s Muscle” is required.
Now that the Portacabins have gone we have
regained use of the whole dinghy park area. In
order to maximise best use of the space available,
Ian Priestley has undertaken a comprehensive
review of the dinghy park layout. Before boats
arrive and are parked in their new locations a
considerable amount of work has been required.
This again is one of the tasks which started on Sat
5th March and continued until the end of the
month. Again another case of “Member’s Muscle”
required. In addition to a new layout for the dinghy
park, some of the areas have required reseeding. So
far this new seed has been slow in striking. With
this in mind the Management Committee are asking
the club’s insurers to pay for new turf for these
areas. At this stage the outcome is uncertain, but if
successful will require some “Members Muscle” to
lay any new turf.
During the close season the Sailing Committee
discussed the option of moving from Asymmetric
and Conventional dinghy fleets to fast and slow
handicap, but after opposition from some members
decided to stick with the status quo at the start of
the season, and convene a meeting of the dinghy
class to discuss this option. At this stage I would
suggest the best date would be Sunday April 10th
after sailing at 4.00pm. This would give the Sailing
Committee time to implement any changes before
the start of the Spring Series on Easter Sunday 24th
April.
By now you should have received membership
renewal details through your letter box containing
the 2011 yearbook complete with sailing
programme and duties. This information has been
available on the website since early January.
Additionally the club now uses the internet based
Dutyman system to remind members of their
forthcoming duty obligations. This is available via
the club website, so please use this system if you
need to change your duty dates. Also please
remember that Dutyman only works if it has your
up to date email address. So please check that this is
the case and if not please advise the Membership
Secretary of any changes.
Again I would ask cruiser members to make every
effort to get their boats off the field and onto their
moorings as soon as possible. Space is a finite
commodity at UYC and we only have room for
either boat or car parking, but certainly not both.
Good sailing and an enjoyable 2011 season

UYC named ‘Sailing Club of the Year’
The magazine article reads: “Ullswater Yacht Club
suffered severe flooding in November 2009 causing
massive damage to the clubhouse. Despite this,
members were determined it would be business as
usual using temporary cabins whilst major repairs
were carried out.
“Members pulled together and managed to host
major sailing events including the famous Lord
Birkett Trophy. They finally celebrated moving back
into their clubhouse in September 2010."
A happy John Robinson receives ‘Club of the Year’ on our
behalf. Is this due to receiving the award or those rather
large (and empty) champagne glasses to his left?... Ed.
ULLSWATER Yacht Club has been awarded the
title of ‘Sailing Club of the Year for 2010’ by the
country’s top sailing magazine
The February edition of the glossy monthly
magazine Yachts and Yachting features its ‘Pick of
the Year 2010’ giving the top club spot to UYC.
Ullswater Yacht Club beat off stiff competition from
sailing clubs throughout the UK. The runners up
were two of the country’s biggest clubs - Grafham
Water Sailing Club in Cambridgeshire and Hayling
Island Sailing Club on the Solent.
Y&Y Editor Gael Pawson explained that the awards
were a new feature in the magazine. The winners
were chosen by the editorial team and were based
on stories and pictures which had appeared in the
magazine during the year.
“We wanted to start something that would
acknowledge the achievements of clubs and classes
each year and hope to build on the awards in the
future. It was a well deserved win, congratulations.”
Gael and her team were impressed with the way the
club coped throughout 2010 after its clubhouse was
badly flooded in November 2009.

The accolade came as a complete surprise to UYC
members who knew nothing about the award until
they opened their latest issue of the magazine.
UYC Commodore, Roy Hulse, is delighted and said
“I am extremely proud that Ullswater has been
voted Club of the Year 2010. The award recognizes
the heartache that the floods caused in Cumbria and
how well we all coped with the aftermath of the
storm damage.
Never in the sailing club’s history have we had to
deal with a situation such as that caused by the
flooding.
“The fortitude and determination of our members to
carry on as best we could was amazing and I am
delighted that all the hard work carried out by both
members and the committee has been recognised in
this way.”

I was asked just before Joe and Lindy’s wedding to write something for Tiller Talk. Sadly work, degree
courses and a sailing campaign got in the way and I only got myself into gear to put something together just
after Christmas! When I started I was having difficulty writing something that fully reflected the type of day
that it was, a day that was full of laughing, smiling and the occasional tear. Then after my third draft it
suddenly dawned on me. The only way to illustrate to you the type of day it was would be to show you my
speech that hopefully made people smile and laugh because it certainly made me cry!
Speech for Joe and Lindy’s Wedding by Murph.
For those of you who don’t know me, I’m Murph.
Firstly I would like to apologise if I seem a little
nervous. Public speaking isn’t really my thing, I was
hoping for a free bar so I could get some free
‘bravery gravy’ but when was the last time you saw
Joe buy a round?
Well, like Rich I am in a similar situation where I
have known both Joe and Lindy for similar lengths
of time. It would be impossible for me to stand up
here and tell you stories about Joe when most of
them involve Lindy in
some way. Even
during Christine’s
regime, Lindy would
have had something
to do with Joe being
in trouble, but now
we know why she
was trying so hard. I
have to be honest
though, Lindy is too
clean; I couldn’t dig
any dirt on her. She
really hasn’t got any
skeletons in the
closet, although she
has had a few bones in her bed.
So unfortunately mate, it looks like all of my
attention will be on you.
When I first met Joe I was only a young lad, fresh
from the suburbs of St Helens, wet behind the ears
with little understanding of the wide world. Joe,
bless him, took me under his wing, and within six
months not only could I sail, I had also become an
alcoholic. But amongst all the things Joe has taught
me none has been less successful than his attempts
at teaching me how to chat up girls. One such
example was back in 2004 when we went to the
Athens Olympics. We had drunk all our beers that
we had on our boat and so decided that we would
head into town for a few more. For the games a
brand new tram network had been installed
connecting each of the stadiums and Athens centre,
thankfully one of the stops was just outside our
marina. So we boarded the tram to head into town.
The tram was full of spectators who had just left one
of the games and two
spectators in
particular caught
Joe’s eye. As I
explained before, we
had had a couple of
beers back at the
digs, affecting Joe in
a spectacular way
and making him lose
his volume control.
He looked at these
two Greek girls,
turned to me and
shouted quietly in
my ear, “Murph, look at those two girls!!” I turned
and looked to see these girls, both pointing and
giggling at Joe. I said “Yeah very nice mate”, Joe
shouted again “Go and talk to them Murph”. I
could see these girls over Joes shoulder whispering
and giggling to each other. So I said “nah mate, its
fine, really”. Joe again shouted at me “Go on
Murph, go and talk to them they are perfect for
you”. By this point the whole carriage had tuned
Continued on page 7

Joe and Lindy’s Wedding
Continued from page 6
into our conversation without Joe realising. The two
girls where still stood behind Joe pointing and
giggling. “Go on Murph” Joe shouted. I said “mate
really it’s fine” trying to diffuse what was turning
into quite a public discussion. Joe, disgruntled by
my lack of apparent interest shouted “Ok then, if
you aren’t going too! I’ll show you how it’s done,
watch this!” And with that comment you can
imagine, the whole tram was listening intently,
everybody paused to watch Joe saunter up to the
two girls, each draped in a Greek flag. The tension
was incredible, everybody on the train holding their
breath, watching Joe lean coolly up against the wall,
leaning on his elbow with one hand behind his
head. He turns, winks at me as if to say “watch this
son”. Turns back, looks the girls up and down,
pauses and says to one of them...... “I like your
flag”. Six years later, surprise surprise, I’m still
single.
As you may or may not know Joe has had quite an
illustrious past and there simply isn’t enough time
to tell them all. So as you can imagine it was a real
struggle to pick just this one. Another problem I had
was that stories kept springing up and it was
getting more difficult to choose especially when a
couple of weeks ago Joe’s mum tells me that Joe was
once a Bay City Roller.
I have also had a bit of difficulty not to let any
secrets out of the bag, like when Joe was 18 and his
parents were away on business, Joe crashed his
Jensen Healey backwards into a wall at 70mph in
his local town and he managed to get the car
repaired and keep it a secret from his family... until
now.
But when I was thinking back, it made me realise
that we have had an amazing time. The last ten
years have been memorable and certainly there isn’t
a point that I wouldn’t go back to, and maybe if Joe
gets that flux capacitor going again, we might be
able to go back and re-live it one more time.
Today though, I think was a milestone. Everybody
knows just how close I am to Joe but I feel just as
close to Lindy. Today I didn’t just see my two best
friends get married, I saw.... and I never thought I
would hear myself say this... but today I saw my
brother marry my sister!
In all seriousness though, I can’t tell you how lucky
I feel to know Lindy and Joe. They have stuck by me
through the bad times and never let me forget the
good times. You are two people that I am so proud
to have in my life. You have no idea what you mean
to me and just how much I love you and how
grateful I am for everything you have ever done for
me. You are not just my friends, you are my family
and I wish you a life time of happiness together.
Cheers.
With love

Dear Auntie Foul
Following a highly enjoyable evening at the UYC Christmas Party, imagine my disappointment
when, turning up to the recent 'Working Party', I was given a wheelbarrow and a shovel and told
to clear the front lawn of winter debris! My new party shoes were ruined! How can I distinguish
between a genuine social event and what amounts to slave labour?
Dear Party Goer,
I can understand your confusion with regard to recent 'parties' that have been held at the club. Can
I assure you the management are giving this problem some serious consideration. Plans are
already afoot to merge all parties, Christmas, Working, Political, Pyjama and Tupperware, (for the
latter two see Joyce for a current catalogue), under the control of a properly elected vice
commodore. Hopefully this will at least ensure that future partygoers turn up wearing the
appropriate footwear.

So if you want to improve your racing and are
having problems with your tacking gybing
starting......please feel free to approach any of the
above and we’ll take through the process. We are at
the club most weekends. Most of us don’t bite.
URDP and the Buddy
Coaching Secret Techniques
This article is private and should only be disclosed
to those who want to improve their racing. So if you
are not interested in racing then please stop reading
this secret document
Following the latest debrief from our resident
Olympic Gold Winning Coach, Paul Brotherton, the
URDP Buddy Coaches have now been programmed
to pass on methods he used to achieve Beijing Gold.
Basically the method is probably easier to
understand in a boat handling manoeuvre, but once
ingrained could apply to other parts of racing, ie.,
starts, tactics... etc
There are six components- Communication, Get-Set,
Trigger, Transition, Exit, Pre-Set.
It is designed to provide the method needed to
make every manoeuvre consistent and measurable.
So if you need help with your tacking, gybing,
starting etc., then feel free to approach your
‘Friendly Buddy Coach’ and we’ll help you through
the process. (We have purposely not written it
down just in case it was to fall in the wrong hands,
like those who don’t want to improve their racing,
or those ‘pesky’ members of other sailing clubs.)
Your Friendly Buddy Coaches with the new
ground-breaking ‘Knowledge’ are,
Lester Noble
John Robson
Dave Giles
Matty Lyons
James Lyons
Dylan Noble
Anne Noble
With boat preparation being an important
ingredient to commencing the racing season on the
right foot, the Coaches may also prove a useful
source on helping with boat set-up and control
systems. If you are seeking advice on something a
little more structural concerning your hull and spars
then you can approach our boat prep expert Josh
Moran.
And for those of you who want to take part with an
on-the-water session, the first one kicks off on the
9th April and will be on the subject of Basic Upwind
Strategy. All are welcome. The session will take a
little over an hour and is aimed to start around
4.15/4.30pm, basically after the ACH race.
See you there
Have fun
Lester

The Cruiser Captain’s Problem
In these days of modern management, ‘person
specifications’ and written job descriptions are ‘de
rigueur’. Not so with Ullswater Yacht Club which
sticks to the old fashioned ways and, using peer
pressure, nudges someone into the job. That was my
fate and I will do the job to the best of my ability.
First, I would like to pay tribute to my predecessor
Robin Barratt who was Cruiser Captain for several
years. On a weekly basis, he collated the racing
results, calculated handicaps and communicated
UYC results to the RYA. Robin was often called
upon to settle contentious issues. Foremost among
these was the establishment of a Club Handicap
System for cruisers. This was a far from easy task
made more difficult with small numbers in a diverse
fleet and the unique wind and weather peculiar to
Ullswater. Robin did it with determination and a
degree of panache, taking no prisoners amongst
those who continued their grievance after the
decision had been made.
I see my task as continuing this debate but for the
2011 season, the Club handicap system will remain
unchanged. We will continue with the Forth Yacht
Club system for variable handicap races like the
Dennis Vernon, adjusting the handicap after each
race. We are also introducing a new Sunday Island
series every fortnight to alternate with the ‘round
the cans’ racing. This will be handicapped as the
Dennis Vernon but I am looking at the option of
adjusting the handicap after every two races and
reviewing the system at the end of the year. The
matter will be put to the next meeting of the cruiser
group for discussion and decision.
10
The eyeball to eyeball round the cans racing will be
run every fortnight as a single series through the
year. Competitors will sail on a consistent club
handicap, unchanged through the season with the
exception of two boats where current data is not
reliable; their provisional handicap along with that
of any new class joining, will be reviewed after 4
races. Other open and closed events will be
handicapped as last year.
From this account you will see that the system is
complex. Now I know more about it, I can assure
everybody that it has been applied fairly but it will
still be prone to anomaly. For that reason
development of the information system and its links
to the RYA is a central piece of business for the
Sailing Committee and great progress has been
made over the last year with the introduction of
Sailwave. This has already made the race office
much more efficient and I hope that 2011 will bring
other benefits
Greater integration of information and more
competitors in the racing will improve the data base
for setting handicaps. Reliable information is the
key and what we learn this year may lead to
modifications and an improved system next year.
Not all cruisers race but with the Dennis Vernon
Series and the introduction of the Sunday Island
Series, we are trying to make cruiser racing more
inclusive and I hope this encourages those who, for
whatever reason are uncertain, to join in and add a
new dimension to their sailing on our unique and
very beautiful lake.

RIBA Design Competition Judging Complete
On 15th February the RIBA received 180 design
submissions from the 220 plus entrants. After a
short review for compliance with the brief the
submissions were handed over to John Innerdale
and I sort them out prior to judging into A – strong
contenders, B – potential contenders and C – non
contenders. This process took us 2 full days but also
enjoyable days as we saw many great schemes,
submissions that were works of art and ones that
had fun elements to them
Over the weekend of 26th and 27th February we
have done firstly, the formal RIBA Judging that
included John Robinson and John Tweed (the RIBA
Independent Judge) and secondly, a meeting with
the UYC New Clubhouse Group that in addition to
the two Johns and I includes John Longstaff, John
Robson and Dave Lyons.
From the judging we have 3 potential winners and
from judging and the group a list of questions to go
to these architectural practices that would need to
be answered at the presentations on 21st March. On
that day and ahead of the presentations we have a
meeting with the National Park Planning at the
yacht club to get their views on the schemes that
they would be happy to see UYC develop and
submit for planning approval.
On 26th March we will present to the UYC
Management Committee the process that we have
gone through with the RIBA, views from the
planners, conclusions from the presentations by the
practices and the preferred scheme. At that meeting
we will seek endorsement of the preferred scheme
for the members to view.
The preferred scheme, other potential winners,
those that were strong contenders and a selection of
the other designs will be displayed at the club over
the Easter weekend. Myself and others from the
UYC New Clubhouse Group will be on hand at
various times to discuss the schemes with members.
Provided the above process supports the preferred
scheme we will then seek approval from the
Committee for the RIBA to formally advise that
practice that they are the winner and that subject to
approval by the members at the AGM in October
they will be the architect for the project with design
and planning next Winter.
At the moment only a few of us know the potential
winners. We can’t wait to show you these, as all of
us believe that they give us a great new yacht club
with many improvements over the current building
and views.
Brian Moreton
UYC New Clubhouse Group
Dear Auntie Foul,
I was pleased to see the recent Architectural competition to design the new clubhouse has apparently
been a resounding success. How can we ensure the designs remaining in the running maintain the 'feel'
of the old clubhouse? For example, have any of these designs kept the view of the veranda fence just
outside the windows? I for one would not thank some city architect type for designing a building where
I could see the lake from inside the clubhouse.
Auntie Foul Replies,
"Dear concerned member. Firstly can I applaud your interest in the Arcitectural Design Competition. I assure you
that the strict criteria of the design brief will ensure that the view of the lake will certainly remain obstructed. Also
included in the brief were a bar area with no view at all, (let alone an obstructed view), and a main entrance that
will continue to guide visitors into the club house via the bins and the gents urinals. It goes without saying that the
siting of the new Club House will be downwind of the sewerage farm so that members may continue to enjoy the
pungent odours that eminate from it on balmy summer evenings.

Representing UYC down under by Jono Shelley
Wellington, the capital of New Zealand, exactly
11,856 miles from Ullswater Yacht Club and I am
pleased to say that they like sailing just as much
over here……and they are damn good at it! A two
year secondment with my employer
PricewaterhouseCoopers to work in our New
Zealand practice has opened up many opportunities
for Carolyn and I but most importantly has meant
lots of time on the water!! The Kiwis are genuinely
great people and are fanatical about water sports be
it sailing, surfing, windsurfing, kitesurfing, diving,
kayaking, ocean swimming…(the list goes on). A
disproportionate number of the world’s best sailors
are from New Zealand. One just has to just look
down the list of Americas Cup and Volvo Ocean
Race Crews and there are loads of Kiwi’s and then
add in the famous names like Grant Dalton and
Russell Coutts and you can see why there is such a
big sailing scene over here. Wellington, situated at
the south end of the North island of NZ, is known
as the windy city for very good reason – it seems to
blow over 30 knots pretty much every day. This
makes the upwind slog in a Laser even more
punishing but makes for some of the best
downwind rides. My windsurfing has also come on
a bit spending many evenings on the water trying to
nail the elusive carve gybe.
On arrival in NZ I bought an old ‘OK’ dinghy with
a view to competing in the world championships
that were held in February 2010. The OK is one of
the bigger dinghy classes over here along with New
Zealand designs the P class and Starling and more
traditional classes like the Laser, 470 etc. There is
also a good fleet of 12 foot skiffs – 2 people, twin
trapezes, massive rig, big kite - totally insane but
lots of fun! The OK is a very old design with the
best hulls made by Icebreaker of NZ. Development
in the class has lead to super stiff carbon masts and
high quality North sails being used by most. I was
found out pretty quickly when out racing for the
first time and chopped around at the back of the
fleet until I slowly learnt that you use your kicker
down wind and not up and sailing by the lee is not
12
quick! I was training with Paul Rhodes (who
eventually came second in the worlds) and a few
other guys who featured in the top 10, including
world champion Karl Purdie and over time
managed to get closer to the front of the fleet.
Unfortunately I injured my lower back when out in
one of Wellington’s normal force 6 – 7’s and that put
an end to my OK sailing (I didn’t recover until well
after the worlds had been and gone….very
frustrating).
Following my recovery I was fortunate enough to be
invited to do some SB3 sailing over in Australia. I
raced an SB3 in the UK for a number of seasons with
my brother Ben and Graham Priestley and therefore
jumped at the chance. Chris and Clare Molloy (with
whom I also raced an SB3 in the UK for a season)
and I competed in Audi Victoria or ‘Geelong’ Week
in January 2010. Geelong week is essentially the
Cowes Week of the Southern hemisphere and takes
place in Port Phillip Bay, Melbourne each year.
Sunshine, flat water and a solid but shifty force 3 – 4
(reminiscent of everyone’s favourite Ullswater
south westerly) for 3 out of the 4 days provided
some excellent racing. The Aussies are also super
competitive when it comes to their sailing (and
everything else) but we managed to string some
bullets together to take home the trophy. What a
great place to go sailing.
Continued on page 12
Representing UYC Down Under
involves lots of short (10 – 15 minute) races with the
last boat in each race being eliminated to eventually
leave 3 boats to sail off in the final. The fleet was full
of sailing stars including Nathan Outteridge,
current 49er and Moth world champion and
Australian 49er Olympic representative, Glenn
Bourke ex CEO of the Volvo Ocean Race, multiple
world champion and Olympic medal winner and a
number of other Australian Olympians and national
champions. We had a great first day, making it to
the final with Nathan and Glenn which was very
humbling. However the second day was an absolute
disaster. We made a big mistake in the first heat of
the day, had an embarrassing broach and were
eliminated. This was a huge shame after the highs of
the first day but there is no way back in a short race
against such a talented fleet.
The next event was the Australian national
championships where I was crewed by UYC’s very
own James Walker (son of Keith and Joan) and
Jonnie Harrison from Derwent Reservoir YC (It
seems I am not the only one to learn that it’s pretty
nice down under!). The event was held in Port
Stephen which is on the East coast of Australia
(about 2 hours drive north of Sydney) as part of the
Sail Port Stephen regatta. Again the fleet was a very
high calibre and included some ex Olympians and
reigning world champions in other classes. We had
a shaky start but got into the swing of things and
posted some good results to lead the event going
into the last day. In a no discard series the event all
came down to the last race where theoretically any
one of 4 boats could have won it. We got off the line
well and sailed a pretty conservative race to post a
solid third. This was enough to lift the Australian
national championship sailing under the burgee of
UYC – a very proud moment. We were very pleased
to hold our nerve and win after coming second in
more events than I care to remember.
This regatta was closely followed by Geelong Week
2011 where we spent 3 days racing against 15 SB3’s
including one helmed by Nathan Outteridge and
crewed by his Olympic coach. This was one of the
best learning experiences of my racing life. We
placed second overall behind Nathan in the event
but had some amazing tussles with him at the front
of the fleet. There was rarely more than a few
seconds between us on the water but Nathan and
his crew demonstrated why they are one of the
favourites for Olympic gold in the 49er by making
no mistakes and never missing a shift.
Next we were invited to race in the Audi King of the
Docklands event which was held Melbourne on a
tiny piece of water in the middle of the city
surrounded by restaurants and high rise office
towers. This was a ‘skins’ series held over two days
with first prize being a new Audi car! A skins series
The Audi Sydney harbour regatta was the final
event on our programme and I again teamed up
with James Walker and Jonnie Harrison. Sailing
with the back drop of the Harbour Bridge and opera
house is absolutely incredible but the amount of
water traffic (including the Manly ferries that do not
stop or even change course for anyone) means that
you don’t have much time to enjoy the view! The
racing was great and was held in seriously shifty
and gusty wind with lots of ‘snakes and ladders’ on
the course (familiar?). We were well ahead of the
majority of the fleet and had a fantastic tussle with
another Olympic sailor. This time Matt Belcher
(current 470 World Champion and Australian
Olympic representative) won the event. We were
13
Representing UYC Down Under
second but the opportunity to race against the very
best is without doubt the best training you can get!
Back in Wellington to stay out of trouble I have
been racing on an exciting 30ft sports boat aptly
names ‘Drinks Trolley’. It is a modified Thompson
30 mostly made out of Carbon and planes
downwind at over 24knots, much like a big SB3. The
boat has a wing known as a ‘Dynamic Stability
System’ that cuts laterally through the hull under
the waterline and provides lift and stability when
going at pace. We placed pretty well in a couple of
local regattas and I will certainly miss being one of
her crew of 8.
My overall reflection of sailing in the Southern
hemisphere is very positive. We have been
incredibly fortunate to race in so many great events
in great locations and against some serious talent. It
is easy to understand why so many great sailors hail
from this part of the world and it’s a real pleasure to
see so many people take to the water. I hope that
our sailing will have benefited greatly from the
racing we have done on this side of the world and I
look forward to putting this to the test when
Carolyn and I return to the UK in July this year. We
very much look forward to visiting the club and
getting on familiar water at UYC. Cheers Jono.

Are You Ashamed?
Are you ashamed of your behaviour?
Would your friends, neighbours, relatives and
colleagues be mortified if they knew what you got
up to at weekends?
How would your friends, neighbours, relatives and
colleagues react if they knew that what you did at
weekends you did in one of the most beautiful parts
of the country?
What would your friends, relatives, neighbours and
colleagues think if they knew that you did what you
do, where you do, at a venue voted Best in Britain
2010 by Britain’s premier yachting magazine?
Not ashamed? Then why not tell them what you do
and where you do it? Even better why don’t you
bring them along to Ullswater Yacht Club, named
by ‘’Yachts and Yachting’ as’ Club of the Year 2010.’
Our open day is on the calendar for Saturday 28th
May. We are asking all members to come out of the
closet, admit what you get up to at weekends and
invite a friend, relative, neighbour or colleague to
join us for the day.
To make the day a success we need the help and
support of all members.

Dinghy Park 2011
The dinghy park has been reorganised for the 2011
season. The reorganisation has been done with the
intention of trying to make life easier for all dinghy
sailors though I am sure that we will not have
pleased everyone.
We have tried to keep boats of the same class
together. Some bays have been made slightly larger
to accommodate the wider boats. We have tried to
locate the heavier boats either nearer to the lake or
alongside the road to make moving them on site
easier. The Flying Fifteens and Tempests have been
moved to the top of the slip or alongside the gravel
road. This should greatly speed up their launching
and recovery. Tempests and Fifteens must return
their trolleys or trailers to their berths after
launching.
Please check on the diagram or list in the club house
to see which berth you have been allocated. It is
unlikely that you will have the same berth as last
year. If there is a problem with the actual berth
please would you leave your boat alongside the
tarmac road and contact me as soon as possible.
Stickers with your membership and boat details are
with Bill at the bar. Please could you apply these to
your boat where they can easily be seen.
All the berths have been tagged with the details of
your boat as taken from the club data base February
2011. Your boat should match those details.
If there is a mistake with this there are three
possible causes. You have not informed John
Longstaff, (Hon. Sec. Existing Members), this is
highly unlikely. You have informed John but he has
not updated the data base, again highly unlikely.
Your details are correct and up to date and I have
made a mistake, highly probable! Whatever the
reason please can you let me know.
Unfortunately the ground where the portacabins
were located last season has not yet recovered. This
means that the berths in those areas will not be able
to be used at the start of the season. If you have
been allocated a berth in that area could you please
leave your boat alongside the tarmac road until the
ground has recovered.
Any problems see me at the club, give me a call on
01768 362495, or e-mail me at

The DutyMan Roster System – what it is and how it works
UYC is a volunteer run club and relies on its
members to ensure all aspects of Club life run
smoothly. Carrying out a UYC duty is a condition
of your membership and to assist with managing
members’ duty dates the DutyMan Roster System is
in operation.
Well done to those who have already confirmed
their duties and/or amended their contact details –
examples to us all!
UYC uses a web based system called DutyMan
(DM) for interfacing the members with its duties
roster. DutyMan notifies members (automatically)
of their assigned duties by e-mail. Members can use
the system to exchange their duty dates (if
necessary), get members’ contact information,
confirm their availability and do much more.
If you are new to the Club, your contact details will
be added to DM (note: this may take a short while
so bear with us) and, when you are assigned a duty
with your team, your duty will be added to the DM
roster.
What happens next depends on whether or not you
have supplied us with your e-mail address and
whether it is current. I have received a number of
messages from the system that some members’ email addresses are undeliverable.
Members with e-mails will then get a welcome email containing their unique log in name and
password. You cannot log-in until you get this email!
If/when you are assigned a team duty, you will get
an advisory email about your rostered duties and
their corresponding dates; later you will receive
reminder e-mails in advance for these duties. These
e-mails have a quick ‘one click link’ log in to the
DutyMan site.
possible if you can use the internet as you can view
the basic roster to see who’s on duty when. You can
do this if you have no e-mail or if you have e-mail
but have not yet received your log-in password. (see
‘Getting Started’)
Getting started
Check out the DutyMan roster system. You do not
need a password or an e-mail address to do this. It
only needs internet access from your PC – nothing
more.
Here’s how in 3 simple steps:
1. Go to the UYC website
http://www.ullswateryachtclub.org
2. Select Members tab [near the top of the home
page]
3. Select Duty Roster - this will open UYC’s
Dutyman Roster web page and you can now look at
the basic Roster.
Logging In
You must log in if you want to confirm your duty or
swap your duty or have access to the e-mail address
or phone number of other members. Note, this is a
separate log in from UYC website log in. You can
also update your contact details, privacy
preferences, etc.
• Logging in requires your password or a ‘quick
login’ link – both are sent to you from Dutyman by
e-mail.
• If you haven’t received your password or a duty
reminder it may be that you have not given us your
e-mail address OR your e-mail address is incorrect
OR you are not yet on the roster.
• Once you’ve logged in your duties appear in easyto-spot red text and you can also now see other
members’ contact information.
Members without e-mails obviously do not get any
email communication. However, you should give us
your contact phone number so the club and
members can contact you regarding your duties.
• If you already have a password but have lost or
mislaid it - go to the DutyMan web site and click
on the link `Forgotten your login?’
Either way, do check out DutyMan as soon as
16
The DutyMan Roster System
Do’s and Don’t’s
Do
• Check out the system – especially if you are new
to UYC or Dutyman
• Give us your e-mail address - if you haven’t
already done so
• Check your details [phone and e-mail] and update
your e-mail address on DutyMan – if it has recently
changed, is different or wrong
• Confirm your availability for your allocated duty
on Dutyman
• Use Dutyman to swap your duty if necessary
• Enter all swaps on Dutyman – including those
you have agreed verbally! [this will update the rest
of the team on the same day who need to know]
• Inform your OOD /Safety Officer if you are
unavailable and can’t arrange a swap
• Get in touch if you have a problem or any doubts
• Save your reminder e-mails for the one click
‘quicklink’ login to your duties
Don’t
• Panic if you are not shown on a duty day, you
may not be assigned yet
• Turn up if your team is shown but you aren’t –
always check with your OOD or Safety Officer for
the day first
Remember
• You will get 2 reminders by e-mail; the first 60
days then the second 21 days before your duty. A
link to what you need to do on the day will be
included.
• The fastest way to log in is through the ‘quick
link’ in your reminder e-mails. It is the web link that
follows the words `To view the duty roster, to
confirm that you can do your duty, or to arrange a
duty swap go to ………………………….’ - so don’t
delete your reminder e-mails if you want to keep
your ‘quick link’ handy
• DutyMan is intended to assist the management of
duties for you and the club if you have a problem,
can’t do a duty or arrange a swap you must contact
the OOD or Safety Officer concerned
• It is a condition of membership that club members
do allocated duties; so everyone should be familiar
with the basics of DutyMan as it is the tool used to
notify or remind you of your duties, display the
most up to date roster and manage the overall
roster.

Dear Auntie Foul
I read on the club website that we have
lost several 'Racing Marks' over the
winter. This is very disappointing as I
had several close races against people
called Mark last year. Where are they
now?
Auntie Foul Replies,
Dear racing member. Unfortunately you are
correct in that we have lost a number of
Marks over the winter. Can I however assure
you that the newly formed Marketing Group
is working hard to introduce more new Bouys
into the club. They will let you know their
names in the next isssue of Tiller Talk so that
hopefully you can continue to enjoy some
close racing.
Could this
be Racing
Mark?

Campsite Commentary
Dear fellow Campers
How we all await the start of the new season with
eager anticipation. Warm Winter nights beneath 24
tog duvet are no solace for the bracing chill of a
Summer’s eve on the yacht club campsite. The
stillness of the air, the muffled scuffle twixt squirrel
(grey and red), baa-ing and low-ing from tents all
around, and the screams of ecstasy from the Lady of
the Lake as she escorts a plethora of partygoers
from Glenridding to Pooley Bridge in a haze of
liquid contentment.
For nigh on 5 months all campers have forsaken the
lure of the camping field in favour of Nasa tested
memory foam – but ....
Older Members of the Club wax lyrical about how
the campsite used to be as flat as the Sydney Cricket
Ground and that during WWII it was used as a
landing strip whereby supplies of saffron and
champagne were flown in for the guests at Sharrow
Bay to maintain morale.
Since then, due to Plate Tectonics and the absence of
an enormous roller, the billiard ball surface has
declined. Present day campers rejoice in the hills
and valleys that remain, viewing the highest peak –
Wanless Fell - as the choice pitch for those
occasions when the brook bursts its banks, the site
floods, and we all roll about laughing at midnight in
our damp negligees wondering really how much
18
fun we are allowed to have in a National Park after
closing time.
It is a true testament to the inventiveness of youth
that Alexander Bairstow took time from his PSIII
Studies and applied his talents to resolving the
dilemma of how to sleep soundly on the equivalent
of the surface of the Moon.
The “Aero Tent” is sure to be a hit with campers. It
is pitched at a height of approximately 4ft above
the ground and consequently ensures that even the
most surly teenager wakes up in the morning well
rested, re-energised, and ready and willing to bring
tea in bed to any adult that has pre-booked it the
night before.
Amongst several unique features it has the benefit
of 4 ft long tent pegs and a step ladder access that
permits easy entry even after the most sociable
evening at the UYC bar. There is also a “stairgate”
option that can prevent most unfortunate accidents
occurring during the night.
The tent is available for purchase from Alexander’s
parents at a discounted price of £99.99 for members.

UYC WEBSITE
We hope that members of UYC will have noticed an
improvement on the contents of UYC website over
the Winter. Andy Webster and Pauline Thompson
have taken on the responsibility for bringing the
website up-to-date and have included regular
updates and news throughout the Winter season, as
well as linking up to the web cam and weather
station at Pooley Bridge pier courtesy of Ullswater
Steamers.
As from April, the UYC website will have a
'Members Only' area. This will include Minutes of
Meetings of various committees, Club By-Laws,
Club Notices etc. It was also felt appropriate to
restrict the Forum to members only. To gain access
to the Members Only area you will need to do the
following:•
You will need to request a new login username
and password by emailing
[email protected] with
your name and membership number which will
be validated against club records. A new login
will be created for you based on your name and
membership number (1 login per membership
number).
•
Providing we can validate the membership
number you should then receive your new login
which will allow you to log into the website.
•
At first login you will be prompted to change
your password. This should be something
memorable and secure.
•
You will now be logged into the website and
new options under the members drop down
within the menu will be available to you.
Other things to consider:
•
Once you have logged in you will see your
display name at the top right next to “logout”.
If you select this you will see your profile.
•
When you are in your profile at the top left of
the page you can select view or edit
o
Select Edit
o
You will now be able to select Edit
Profile underneath your photo.
•
Your profile will be partially populated with
your membership number, and boat class
(Dinghy/Cruiser).
•
In this section you can fill in more details,
restricting who can see what by changing the
visibility option.
•
If you plan to use the forum at all, you can add a
photo here which will be visible when you make
a post so people new to the club will know who
you are when they are next at the club.
Also on our website we will have a separate
Classified Section which will include Boats for Sale,
Boats Wanted, sailing equipment for sale etc. If you
have a boat for sale it would be good to include a
photo, which will go on our website.
Please let Andy or Pauline have updates on your
news during the coming season. Reports on Open
Meetings etc. would be welcome.

Finish Line
If you’ve managed to get this far then you’ve probably seen Racing Mark in trouble already. Some of you may have
thought that that picture was Craig Robinson in his International Canoe – an easy mistake to make. In fact it was
from a selection sent in by Simon Purdy and here’s the remainder and an explanation to just what was going on.
He describes it as "the
permanent and mobile image of
a wrecked ship that has become
a functional and safe leisure
object."
French artist Julien Berthier has
designed a fully functional boat
to look as if it is sinking. The
6.5m (21ft) yacht was cut in half
with a new keel and motor
added so it remains in the
sinking position while being
fully functional.
The Love Love was built
to look as if it is sinking
The designer and artist
designed and built the
floating installation in 2007.
He named his creation Love
Love.
Berthier has taken the boat (or
should I say half-a-boat)
across the English Channel to
London and has toured it
around Europe, getting
plenty of offers of assistance
from unwitting good
Samaritans, who would
presumably be either very
annoyed or rather bemused
by the contraption.
Get writing and photographing!
No sooner have you read this and it’ll be time to start thinking about the next issue. You don’t have
to wait for the nagging e-mails, get inspired and start creating as soon as you have finished sailing.
When you're sailing asymmetrics you’re living, anything else is just waiting…
