Photo courtesy Andy Bates Commodore Tom Pochereva April is here! With it comes a very busy month for your club. In the Galley our chefs have introduced new menus for the weekend lunch and dinner selection. Beginning in April the snack bar hours for Sunday will increase from Noon to 7:00 PM so members can plan to sail, fish, kayak or simply enjoy the longer daylight hours at the club and have dinner before winding up their weekend. Also for your enjoyment, the House and Grounds committee, under Mike Furukawa, upgraded the North BBQ with new stainless steel burners and elements aimed at increasing the life expectancy of this well-used asset. New on the club’s social media is Facebook.com/KaneoheYachtClub which is geared to increasing access by members for members. As we expand our hits on the site we’ll post more information and pictures, but it is up to you to see how it really adds to getting information to the members and their friends. As the year progresses we have lots of work to do at the club. You’ll see our maintenance crew out there painting and doing maintenance around the facilities along with their regular weekly routines. We have begun to implement LED lighting at the club and plan to increase its use in parking and dock areas. A few reminders: all member boats used at the club must have a legible club sticker (trailers too), and the member must supply proof of liability insurance… for homeowners this is typically part of home insurance for boats 25 ft and under. It is highly recommend, for minimal additional cost, that liability insurance be increased to the maximum (typically $500,000). Also, club members may not authorize anyone else to use their slip or rack. If you are unfamiliar with the Marina Regulations, please download them from our website. Walking around the club it is very disappointing to see so many boats with State DLNR stickers out of date, not just by a month or two but by years (one was 10 years out of date). While it is not the club’s responsibility to remind members to update their stickers it is hard to believe that actively used boats would lapse their registration. Speaking of stickers, those of you who own kayaks and paddle boards or even Lasers and El Toros may want to pick up a “Paddle Smart” sticker at the front office. This US Coast Guard program is based around a reflective orange waterproof sticker for your boat, with the owner’s ‘IF FOUNDCONTACT’ information (Phone 1, Phone 2 and a name). The purpose is to identify the vessel if it is lost, but especially if lost on the water. The idea is that a quick call to the numbers will allow the Coast Guard, DLNR or the Navy to implement a search and rescue promptly, if necessary. Or, if the user is safe, a costly search can be avoided and the owner can be reunited with their property. Either later this month or early next month the Board of Directors plan to hold a few evening meetings to update members on items of interest. Keep an eye out for dates and times. I look forward to seeing you at our events and enjoying our club’s many activities and facilities. Vice Commodore Richard Perkins On March 7, we welcomed our new members at the first Newcomer's Pupu Party of the year. Sime Gross, Sandy Ragley-Wood, and the Deckhands did a great job in assisting with this event. Welcome to all the new members. Also in March, we had a very successful St. Patrick’s Day dinner with 55 members attending. Mahalo goes out to Roselle Nottage and her entertainment committee for organizing this event. There was a lot of Green Beer served as well as some Green Wine if you can believe it. The First Friday Music event on March 6 was also very well attended. We received many positive comments regarding the First Friday Music so keep the comments coming as we appreciate your support for this event. Roselle has organized First Friday music for April 3. To close out March, we had our Annual Blood Drive on March 28 and a big Mahalo goes out to Ron Dodini and Jean Fernie for their hard work to make this a successful event. Through their efforts the Blood Bank’s goal of having fifty people sign up was accomplished. A special thanks to the Tennis Fleet for providing baked goods for the blood donors. April continues to be a very busy month starting with the Keiki Easter Party on Saturday, April 4. The Deckhands have planned another great event with Face Painting, Petting Zoo, Balloonists, Shave Ice, refreshments and of course an Easter Egg Hunt. On Sunday, an Easter Brunch is planned with a great menu. Bunco Night is on Wednesday, April 8 and a great wine tasting event on Saturday, April 25 with more than 60 wines featured. Please contact the front office to make reservations early for these events before they sell out! Our club management and maintenance staff have been busy addressing the issues caused by the storms in February. There were a lot of issues with the piers that took a lot of effort to repair. Ken and team were very proactive addressing the issues. House and Grounds continues to work with our club management and Finance and Planning to coordinate maintenance activities to address outstanding issues. See you at the club and Happy Easter…. Members donate blood at the annual Blood Drive Rear Commodore Tom Wood Aloha, all. March saw the racing season pick up with Thursday night races, the Wahine Race, more Junior Sailing events, and early preparations for the Lipton Cup. KYC is fortunate to have a number of member boats all competing in a race series to decide who will represent that club at the Lipton Cup Offshore Challenge. IRF also completed its first race on the 1st of March with 8 boats competing. The race committee familiarization meeting went off without a hitch on the 11th of March, and provided a great deal of information for those wanting to participate in the race committee process. The Regatta Chair, in cooperation with the Fleet Captains, has scheduled most of the race committees for the year, but there are still opportunities to participate for anyone who wants to help out and enjoy a day on the water with the racers. Overall we are seeing great participation from the sailing fleets and a great competitive environment for all. The Fishing Fleet held its first meeting in March with great participation from new and old fleet members. The first tourney of the year gets underway this week with a month-long tournament to catch the biggest fish. Rules are simple - you have to leave from and return to KYC, have fish weighed by an official weighmaster, and of course you have to sign up and pay your tournament fee to participate. For those who may have missed the meeting you can catch up with any of the fleet members for more details. March also saw the completion of the dry storage project with final painting and cleanup. Again, a note of thanks to all who contributed to that effort. Please note that the area adjacent to the north tennis court is no longer authorized for boat cleaning and flushing. This change was made to help extend the life of the seal coat and pavement by preventing salt deposits. The area by the boat ramp against the bulkhead is available for flushing as needed – please restrict your boat washing activities to that area. The Mooring Committee is actively working on both dry and wet storage issues, and as a reminder all boats and trailers on KYC property are required to be KYC registered. That means a legible KYC sticker on both the boat, and if applicable the trailer or dolly. Stickers are free and its an easy process, just see Julia or Jean in the office and provide the documentation for your boat or trailer and they will give you a sticker. I would also suggest that boat owners take a moment to check your state registration… while the majority of boats have valid HA numbers, there are some that are significantly out of date and since all KYC moored vessels are of course being used a minimum of twice a quarter, sooner or later DLNR or the Coast Guard may notice those expired registrations. Also, if you are in a wet slip and you haven’t checked your mooring lines lately, please make a point of coming down to do so soon – many lines are still improperly tied or missing, and we need those items corrected for the safety of all boats and piers. As another reminder, please support the Port Captain and our KYC Security by complying with their instructions and guidance when using the facilities. They are responsible for helping to make the club run safely and smoothly, and they need our support. As always, I greatly appreciate the efforts of all those volunteers who keep the Club going strong, and look forward to seeing many more of you as the year goes on. Stay safe, watch out for each other, and I hope to see you all at the Club or on the water. Junior Sailing Director Jesse Andrews Port Captain Bob Hurd Aloha, The weather is improving throughout the Pacific, and cruising season is upon us. Larger boats will start to head to the South Pacific soon. Some boats will be doing inter island cruising also. I have heard rumors about some of the boats heading out, but none of the owners have informed me of their plans. The Club can use the information to help other Club members during the more active summer season. There is a requirement in the Marina Regulations that anyone leaving their slip for a period of time contact the Port Captain and lay out their cruising plans. Some slips will be vacant, and I won't know why, and the lack of information prevents us from letting other members use the club’s vacant slips. Please contact me before you go. The latest windstorm revealed some flaws in moorings at the Club and in some member's faulty mooring lines. Some Club equipment was damaged by the stresses from the storm. Everyone has learned lessons, and the Board and I are paying close attention to the problems. I did an examination of a portion of E pier and found 14 mooring violations in 24 consecutive slips. It was very disheartening to see so many deficiencies in owner’s mooring gear. The Mooring Committee will process the violations that have not been corrected in the required 30 days, and I will move on to the next portions of E and G piers to inspect the moorings and electrical connections. There is a chart in the Marina Regulations showing the proper sizes of nylon line to be used depending on the size of your boat. There has to be a thimble (stainless steel recommended) tightly spliced into the line, and a shackle attaching it to the fitting on the pier. Pre-spliced lines with the thimble held in place by cable ties are not sufficient. The thimble must be tightly spliced in place. If you need more attach points on your slip or replacements for the existing ones you must contact the office and the maintenance crew will install them for you. The wet and dry slip wait lists presently have many Club members’ names that have given no dimensions for their boat. I cannot second-guess anyone’s needs. Members must either turn in a revised application specifying the size and type of boat slip desired or be passed up by someone further down the list who has specified boat dimensions. If you are waiting for later to decide if you want a slip, do the other members on the list, and me, a favor and ask that your name be put on the respective inactive list. You will not affect your date of application, and you can call the Port Captain at any time, telling him or her that you are ready for a slip and ask that your name be placed on the active list in the chronological order of your application. This happen in February, and a member whose application was made back in 1990 became first on the active wet list and ended up with a wet slip a few weeks later. Marina Regulations specify that a member wishing to bring a trailer boat to the Club must show proof of insurance and ownership of the boat, obtain stickers for the boat and trailer, and then bring the boat to the Club. Launching a boat without proving it belongs to a Club member and that it has liability insurance is prohibited, unless it is a sanctioned race or a pre-approved special occasion, approved by the Principal Race Officer or Port Captain. Please, everyone, the rules help us to ensure that the only people launching boats are club members! Have you tried to read the number on your KYC boat sticker lately? Some stickers given out earlier have faded to the point that they cannot be read. I will be sending out Mooring Violation letters in May. The stickers are free at the office now. Take advantage of the free offer now because Marina Regulation violations will be sent out in June, and there will be a fine for no legible sticker in July. Stay safe, have fun, and I’ll see you on the water. Spreading KYC Aloha on the Pride of America Don Brown and Ruthanne Quitiquit present Captain Kjell Nesheim with a Kaneohe Yacht Club burgee. We had a great first HYSA regatta of the year at KYC March 14. The previous weekend was HYSA #1 at Hickam. Both events saw moderate trade winds averaging about 15 knots. Our El Toro sailors excelled in both events taking the top five overall spots. At KYC's event we also included the Open Bic boats from Hawaii Kai. Our total number of entries was 39! We had 11 KYC sailors compete and swept first through fourth in El Toro A and first through third in Laser B. We also placed first in El Toro B. Many of these sailors will be traveling to Santa Cruz this summer for the El Toro North Americans. It looks like we will be sending 15 boats for the El Toro North Americans July 21-24 in Santa Cruz! In order to make this possible we got a great discounted shipping rate from Matson to ship 15 El Toros. We are also planning a few fundraisers with the first being at Waikiki Yacht Club Saturday, April 4 from 9:30 to noon. Hawaiian Values in Action is donating $1,000 for shipping El Toros if we help to clean up the Ala Wai basin! Come help make our sailing grounds a more beautiful place. Nets, gloves, trash bags and refreshments provided. BYO PFD. We are hoping to get confirmation soon on have one more clean up for another $1,000 towards shipping. More details to follow. There are a few other fundraisers in the works through KYC for June. If all this works as planned shipping of the boats will be covered. Hawaii Sailing Foundation have also indicated that they will provide individual financial assistance if a racer shows that serious determination preparing for this event. This includes sailing in HYSA events in El Toros and at our yacht clubs in their programs or races such as the KYC Friday night El Toro races. Don't forget to come down on Friday night starting April 10 for the first El Toro race of the year! Our next HYSA regatta will be the Slim Lambert regatta at Waikiki Yacht on May 2.

The sky was bright. The Koolaus were in all their splendor with the entire top of the range visible. If that’s global warming… hhhmmmm. But for most of us the action was on board with lots to do. The course was starting at G25, out the main ship channel to K bouy, back in the Sanpan Channel, finish at G25. There was a great battle going on with the lightweight boats, the Hobie 33 Flying Tiger and Mark Denzer’s Cowabunga. With Mark’s tiny self tacking jib, he would gain in the tricky upwind in the channel where tacking properly was a premium. As soon as the reaches came in, Flying Tiger stretched its legs and was off again. In the end though it came down to the rabbit and the hare with Dave Nottage on his Soling ‘Pursuit’ unseating the defender, Bill Leary in his Beneteau ‘Moku pe’a’. Rounding out the fleet was Mark Logan on his Beneteau ‘Puanani’ and yours truly on his J35 ‘Alizé’ As a little side note, wouldn’t everyone agree that the Sanpan Channel R2 marker is really hard to see now that it got downsized?

At the past two regattas, series B and C, there have been 13 boats the line. I think that is the first time we’ve ever had that many boats out. It makes for exciting starts and back and forth action throughout the entire race. Congrats to John Myrdal on Ol’ Blue for taking first at Classboat B, and the Cruises on Pilikia for taking first in Classboat C. Additionally, this past Sunday, KYC hosted the annual Wicked Wahine regatta in Cal 20s. It was a huge success as well, with 12 boats and 37 wahine competitors. After three races, the team of Jen Gillette, Jen Barra, Jackie Mcloughlin, and Leah Ford took first place. Congrats! Big thanks to all the participants, race committee volunteers, and all the Cal 20 owners for lending your boats, and Katie Cruise for organizing everything. Without you all, the regatta would not have been the success it turned out to be. With many more regattas to come, there are plenty of opportunities for people to come sailing. Anyone looking to get involved with the Cal 20 fleet (and do some one design racing!), please email me at [email protected]. See you on the water.

The wind was a shifty 10-15 knots from the north and northeast. The fleet had four boats turnout for the day; Tom Pochereva and Kevin Rogers sailing Tom’s new boat 1144, Elise Leroux and Tanner Marsh sailing 1104, Cecelia Jasson and Matty sailing Windlover 1101, Andy Bates and Danielle Hull sailing 1160. Race 1: The first race favored the port lay line. 1160 got there first and rounded the weather mark ahead of the fleet. During the kite hoists 1160 has a major problem and the kite had to remain in the bag the rest of the race. 1144 took the lead and never relinquished it finishing ahead of 1104 in 2nd place. 1101 had rudder damage and retired for the day to repair the back of the boat. 1160 finished a distant 3rd. Race 2: The breeze picked-up during race 2 and the fleet got off to another clean start. 1144 and 1104 had some “swims” during the first two legs which allowed 1160 to sail into the lead and finish first, followed by 1144 and 1104. Tanner Marsh had his first “off the boat” swim downwind. Good job Tanner. Great rides downhill were had by all. Race 3: The win moderated back down as race three got under way. 1160 and 1104 went for the previously favored port layline. 1144 was late to the start and tacked on to port off the starting line and went for the starboard layline that paid off handsomely this time. 1144 rounded the mark first with a good lead that they did not give up, finishing first. 1160 was second and 1104 was third.

Saturday’s weather was uncooperative, so tournament director Greg Siok had to split the tournament over both Saturday and Sunday. Keegan Giles took first place for the men, and Rob Rietow second. For the women, Dana and Betsy Denzer tied for first place, and Dana won the trophy by making the closest guess to the answer to the question: “What percentage of Valentine Cards are purchased by women?” (answer: 85%). Guests in the Feb. tournament were:Bob and Liz Meierdiercks and Lynn Pease, all of whom are applying for membership. left to right: Keegan Giles, Cindy Siok, Susie Weber, Dana Nottage, Kit Beuret Our March tournament fared better-weatherwise for the near-record 24 players, including guests Harry Brown and Lynn Pease (right). Cindy Siok and Donlei Darnell tied for first place among the women, and Donlei won the trophy by having the closest (but not very close) guess to the question: “When did Ireland first take part in the Olympics?” (answer: 1992). First place among the men was Bob Yoder, followed by John Gross. The annual fleet St. Patrick’s Day potluck offered lots of delicious corned beef and cabbage, carrots and Irish potatoes, plus an assortment of scrumptious desserts.
