Al Declercq had a vision that
he could take a 91 year old, 32’
wooden racing sloop, which
won the inaugural Bayview
Mackinac Race in 1925 and do
it again in 2012. With the help
of his son Matthew, and Fred
and Ward Detwiler, and Ken
and Connor Flaska, his vision
became a reality.

COMMODORE’S
MESSAGE
Commodore Kent M. Colpaert
On behalf of Bayview Yacht Club, it is my
honor and privilege to welcome sailors and racing fans on July 20
for the 89th Bell’s Beer Bayview Mackinac Race. This is truly a
wonderful time of the year. Preparations should be finishing up for
the more than 200 competitors who will race from Port Huron in
Southern Lake Huron, heading north along two courses up to
Mackinac Island. This is my favorite time of the year, maintenance
is completed, boats are on the water and sailors are ready to race.
Our Mackinac Race Committee has gone to great lengths to roll
out the red carpet for our guests and is confident that the Bell’s
Beer Bayview Mackinac Race will maintain its reputation as one
of the most spectacular fresh water sailing events in the world. We
are extremely grateful to Bell’s Beer and newly appointed Vice
President, Laura Bell, for her recent announcement confirming a
sponsorship commitment into 2016. This extended sponsorship,
which takes us through our 92nd year, allows the Club to focus on
the visibility of the race while further enhancing the Bayview
Experience.
The Acura “Sailing Under the Stars Charity Preview” presented
by Soaring Eagle Casino & Resort will return for its second year
on June 15th. This wonderful summer event will serve as the kick
off for the race and will feature live entertainment and showcase
the delicious cuisine of 25 local restaurants, eateries and sweet
shops. Importantly, it also will raise funds and awareness for
several local nonprofit organizations, including Autism Speaks,
COTS, The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, Matrix Human
Services, Play Place for Autistic Children and Rose Hill Center.
Thank you to Doug Fox, owner of Ann Arbor Acura, who helped
spearhead this effort.
It’s also important to thank Port Huron Mayor, Pauline Repp,
and Chris Shepler of Shepler’s Ferry, who have led extensive
dredging efforts to address the record low water levels on Lake
Huron and The Straits of Mackinac. This year, Mayor Repp had
more silt than normal removed from the Black River and Shepler’s
thoroughly dredged Mackinac Island, Mackinac City and St.
Ignace locations. In addition, Dan Musser of The Grand Hotel
helped raise funds from local businesses to dredge the Mackinac
Island harbor. I would like to extend my sincerest appreciation to
everyone who played a part in these efforts.
Sailors and sports fans alike will enjoy the return of the Pro
Team Challenge, pitting Detroit’s local sports teams against one
another in friendly competition. This race within the race is very
popular among our sailors and a fun way for fans to support teams
that are selected to represent the Detroit Tigers, Pistons, Red Wings
and Lions. The “team boats” that were randomly selected include
Windshadow–skippered by Jim Murphy, Rampage–skippered by
Matt Haglund, Pterodactyl–skippered by Mark Symonds and
Shenanigan–skippered by Dick and Dan Synowiec. Only one
winner among the four will receive the Pro Team Challenge
Trophy, so I encourage fans to follow along and cheer your favorite team on to victory.
Finally, this race takes an entire team to ensure its success, not
only for the sailors, but for the more than 10,000 fans who attend
all of the ancillary events leading up to the trophy ceremony at
Bayview in September. I would like to congratulate 2013 Race
Chairman, Carl Bihlmeyer, for taking on such a big event, and all
of his volunteers in Detroit, Port Huron, Mackinac Island and on
the USCG Cutter Bristol Bay assigned to follow the fleet up to
Mackinac Island keeping us safe. I’d also like to thank the Grand
Hotel for planning another spectacular awards party for the sailors
and their families.
I wish all the skippers and crew a fast and enjoyable race to
Mackinac where friends and family await our safe arrival. I’ll see
you at the Pink Pony when you get to the Island. Enjoy the
Bayview Experience!

Message
From the
2013 Race
Chairperson
S
ince I am relatively new to
BYC, some of you may wonder how I came to
serve as Race Chairman for the 2013 Bell’s Beer
Bayview Mackinac Race. Commodore Kent
Colpaert approached me and asked if I’d be interested in being the Race Chairman this year and I
accepted the position. Commodore Colpaert’s
belief in me represents the absolute culmination
of all the events that have driven my life in the
sport I admire and love.
Let me tell you a bit about my sailing background, which I know you can all relate to,
because your love of the sport mirrors mine.
Sailing has been a lifestyle for my family, and
racing has given me many opportunities to grow
my skills. Participating in buoy racing has provided great fun, but the real joy and challenges of
sailing has come from the 26 Bayview Mackinac
Races I have completed.
Achieving Old Goat status was earned by
crewing with expert sailors such as Tom
Kleinhardt (Catalina 38 Forte’) and the Kirkman
family (J120 Hot Ticket), which made for many
memorable winning moments and great sailing
stories. An opportunity to race our cruising boat,
Allure, in the Mac Race came through collaboration with the Smith family.
After sailing as crew on other boats, it was a

Commodore Colpaert’s belief in me

life in the sport I admire and love.
real thrill to race and win with my own
boat. I developed a greater appreciation
for all the energy it takes to get a boat
ready for this race and know the work
that is being done across the fleet to
prepare the boats for the race.
During these sailing and racing years, I
have been a member of the Handicap
Review Board for more than 10 years and
served as BYC’s Chief Handicapper for
five Mac Races. I have also served on the
Race Committee teams for the NOOD
races, the BYC Thursday night OTD
racing and the Harbor Committee at
Mackinac Island. If I was not racing, I
was working as a volunteer to make
racing a great experience for the sailors.
Getting on to this year’s Bell’s Beer
Bayview Mackinac Race, there are a few
changes that you should all be aware of.
We are excited to announce a change that
the committee feels all participants will
appreciate. The winner of the division
with the greatest number of boats registered will be awarded the J.L. Hudson
Trophy and Flag designating the boat and
crew as the overall winner of the race.
This is different from past years and we
all feel it will make the competition stronger. Also, for 2013, boats will finish the
race in a westward direction through the
Straits of Mackinac with the finish line
off the Round Island Light as pictured in
this year’s race logo.
In my experience, the best part of the
event is meeting new people and working
with many others to reach a common
goal, to put on a great event. Our volunteer base is tops and cannot be beat. Once
again with 200+ strong we approach our
job with thoughts of continuous improvement, and when we leave the Island on
Wednesday, that goal will have been
achieved.
It’s fun to see the volunteers at work,
making all the right moves to provide the
racers with great satisfaction. It can be
seen while preparing in Detroit, heading
to Port Huron for the start, then on to the
Mackinac Island finish and through to
our famous, super awards “happening”
on Tuesday afternoon. The Grand Hotel
provides the beautiful venue, Endless
Summer, our entertainment for the afternoon, will move you, while Jonathan
Witz & Associates promises enhanced
activities for children—a total family
affair.
In the 89th year of this historic race,
two Bayview Yacht Club members/sailors will earn Grand Ram status, which
means they will have completed 50
Mackinac races. I’m pleased to note that
Commodore Dean Balcirak (Sea Fever)
of Grosse Pointe Woods, Michigan, and
John Tipp (Yare) of Troy, Michigan, will
achieve this honor.

We are proud, and grateful to our sponsors, because their support helps raise the
visibility of the race and of Bayview
Yacht Club. Kudos goes to our long list of
race sponsors, starting with Bell’s Brewery, Laura Bell, Vice President, has
extended our relationship for two more
years, to 2016. This also allows us to
concentrate on the factors that make the
race experience as fantastic as it can be.
Other honored sponsors include the
Grand Hotel, Acura Advance, Shepler’s
Official Ferry Service, Legal Copy
Services, the BYC Foundation, AitkenOrmond Agency, Soaring Eagle Casino,
Doyle Sails, Michigan Gas, Frankenmuth
Insurance and Barefoot Wine & Bubbly.
As you start your trek north, please
take a minute to remember all the sponsors and volunteers who make this event
a success. When you arrive at the island,
reach out to all of them, shake their hands,
shower them with praise and remember
they are there to make you, the customer,
happy and proud to complete another
“Jewel of July” event­— safe and sound.
To the BYC Staff, RC Volunteers and
Sponsors—THANK YOU for all your
help and expertise to make my time as
Race Chairman a great one. To the many
past chairmen that were my mentors—
THANKS! And to Art LeVassuer (2014),
and Peter Wenzler (2015), have FUN in
the years to come.
Fair winds, as “a gentleman never goes
to weather.” Have FUN on your trip and
see you at Mackinac Island where the real
FUN begins. u

Society
T
he Straits of Mackinac Society
was founded by Bayview Yacht Club
to honor all Mackinac Race Committee
personnel who have served the committee for 15 years. Members of the Straits
of Mackinac Society are known as “Old
Forts”: our heroes who have worked in
the background with such dedication for
so many years deserve proper recognition. Without their untiring efforts there
would not be a starting cannon, or any
race at all.
We wish to thank the many men and
women who have served Bayview Yacht
Club and the sailing fraternity over the
years by honoring them with membership in the Straits of Mackinac Society.u

Dee Otenbaker
2013 Bell’s Beer Bayview Mackinac Race
By: Carl Bihlmeyer, Race Chairman – 2013 Bell’s Beer Bayview Mackinac Race
A
s Mackinac Race Chairman, I’d like to congratulate
Dee Otenbaker for being selected as the 2013 Bell’s Beer Bayview Mackinac Race Member of the Year.
She has been accepted as a member of the prestigious Straits of
Mackinac Society, signifying 15 or more years as an enthusiastic Race
Committee Member. Her most notable and enduring position is the allimportant “voice of Mackinac.” After finishing the race, racing in all kinds
of conditions, sometimes cranky, the skippers call in with finish details
and are greeted with the most soothing and elegant voice, “welcome, skipper, to Mackinac Island…” We could not pull off this tremendous event as
we do without the unfailing efforts of all our volunteers, and Dee, your
selection as 2013 Race Committee Member of the Year is a tribute to all
that you have done on our behalf. It is a real pleasure hearing that
beautiful voice upon arrival “at the Island.” THANK YOU! u

Society of Mackinac
New “Old Goats”
inducted this
year through
the 2012 Bayview
Mackinac Race
“The more I sail,
the younger I feel”
By: RAY ADAMS, Chairman of the Bayview Mackinac Old Goats Committee
T
he title of this article could be the motto for the
Bayview Mackinac Old Goats. Sailors that have invested time and effort
making their way to Mackinac Island share a passion that bonds them together in this legendary race.
Each year, sailors complete their 25th Mackinac Race and are eligible to
become Old Goats. If you are one of those people, you should contact
Bayview Yacht Club (313-822-1853 or www.byc.com) to obtain a copy of
the Old Goats application. It will need to be filled out and returned to BYC
by September 1st to be inducted in that year’s class of new Old Goats. A
cocktail reception is held before the Mackinac Awards Dinner for new Old
Goats. Recognition of this accomplishment occurs at the Mackinac Awards
Dinner on Saturday, September 21, 2013.
There is also recognition of Double Old Goats for sailors who complete
25 Bayview Mackinac Races AND 25 Chicago Mackinac Races. If you fall
into that category, please notify both CYC and BYC. There are a few very
select sailors who have sailed in 50 Bayview Mackinac Races who are
known as “Grand Rams.” Please alert Bayview if you complete this milestone this year.
Becoming an Old Goat speaks volumes about your persistence, commitment and dedication to a sport that is more than just an activity. It is a way
of life! The friends that you make in the sailing community are the people
that you can share Mackinac stories with for a lifetime. We hope that you
will make some new memories this year and be able to share them with
Old Goats who are getting younger every year!u

We are happy to announce
the addition to Grand Hotel
for 2013
Sadie’s
Ice Cream Parlor
S
adie’s
is located just
outside the east entrance of the hotel
and is open to all
Mackinac Island visitors. It is located in
what was formerly
Margaret’s Garden.
Margaret’s Garden
has moved to the
interior of the lower
level of the hotel and
is now an open-air type flower shop where guests
can watch the daily activity of the flower designers.
Sadie’s will serve 24 flavors of Michigan based Hudsonville Ice Cream.
The name Sadie’s is a tribute to the Scottish
Terrier that belonged to the proprietors of Grand
Hotel, Mr. and Mrs. R.D. Musser, and the joy she
brought to their family. Sadie was born in Laingsburg, Michigan­—home of the family’s Roundtown
Kennel. The Mussers have shown terriers throughout their life together. Sadie was their top
winning dog—the only dog to date to win the “Triple Crown,” the three largest shows in the country,
Eukanuba’s National Championship in Long Beach,
California, the National Dog Show in Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania and the Westminster Kennel Club
Show in New York City. She was the number one all
breeds dog in 2009 and a champion for the record
books with 112 Best in Shows. Today Sadie has
2 2 /// 2 0 1 3 S u m m e r B u r g e e
retired from the dog circuit and lives with her best
friend and handler in California.
This classic American ice cream parlor has
been decorated by Grand Hotel’s interior designer,
Carleton Varney. As you walk up Grand Hill this
season, new black and white hounds tooth
awnings with the Sadie’s logo can be seen. Newly
built stone stairs and a ramp lead to the bright red
door where inside you will find cafe tables with
white marble tops accompanied by cafe chairs
with twisted iron and settees along the perimeter.
Outside you will find additional seating on custom
twisted iron benches.
Grand Hotel is proud to partner with Hudsonville Ice Cream to be the exclusive ice cream
supplier both at Sadie’s and throughout the hotel,
and in all five off-site restaurants. For 80 years,
Hudsonville has been a Great Lakes brand with
Michigan roots, creating a strong bond with Grand
Hotel, a family owned and operated hotel for three
generations, celebrating its 126th birthday this
year. Grand Hotel and Hudsonville respect and
appreciate the value of Michigan-made products
and family owned businesses which makes this
partnership so grand.
In addition to traditional ice cream cones,
Sadie’s will feature shakes, sundaes, a special
Grand Sundae built to share and served in a dog
bone shaped bowl. In addition you will find the
famous Grand Pecan Ball and a new twist on an
old favorite, a mini Grand Pecan Ball on a stick.
We hope to see you at Sadie’s this season. u

Sailing in the Smith
family has become
much more than
just a tradition,
it’s a lifestyle.
P
ersonally, my first sailing experience took
place before I was even born, with my mom hiking on a J24:
kind of crazy right? But this article isn’t about me, it’s about
the entire Smith family and this lifestyle we have all come to
love. The history of our family sailing in the Mackinac Race is
truly remarkable. My father, Wick Smith, had one thing in
mind as my brother Andrew and I (Scott) were growing up:
“How do I get my sons into sailing the Mackinac Race as
quickly as possible?” Many people were approached in 2004
to charter a boat and finally Carl Bihlmeyer came through with
Allure, a Catalina 36 that had never raced.
This is where the story all begins. We got five Smiths on a
boat, three generations including myself, my father, and my
grandfather, Lee Smith, who sailed his 59th Mackinac Race in
2012. Over time we have had seven Smiths sailing on one boat
to Mackinac and let me tell you it can get pretty hectic sometimes. The seven Smiths include my granddad Lee (aka Tops),
his sons Wick and Randy, grandkids Lauren, Kathryn, Andrew,
and me. We sailed Allure from 2004-2009, managing to get a
3rd place flag, two 2nd place flags, two 1st place flags, and 1st
overall in cruising in 2007. However, my grandfather was getting older and we needed a bigger boat. This is when we approached Fred Bellamy about chartering Pogo. We sailed Pogo
in 2010 and 2011, winning first in class in 2011. Little did I
know that all these years we were chartering other boats, my
dad was looking for a boat of our own, one we could use to
continue this lifestyle we had all become accustomed to. In
2011 he found that boat, a Beneteau 42 from the East Coast
that was in really rough shape. It took us months and many,
many man hours to get that boat into sailing condition, but
once again we prevailed as a team and got Mostly Harmless in
the water just in the nick of time. That year we sailed with six
Smiths; Wick, Randy, Andrew, Kathryn, Lee, and me, taking
3rd place in our first year in our brand new boat—one we
could finally call our own. A boat that I hope will stay in our
family as long as possible. u

“Bayview
Time on the Water”
Wonderful time had by all. From the moment we
arrived in Fort Lauderdale to our return eight days later, it was a
“Bayview time on the water.” A faction of the BYC crew began our
voyage in typical BYC form before even stepping aboard, “one omelet
and four Bloody Marys, please.” Yee Haw! We’re off to the races! >

With stops in Turks and Caicos, San Juan,
St. Maarten and Holland America’s own
Half Moon Island in the Bahamas, our days
were spent in Caribbean sunshine and evenings
enjoying each other’s company. For the sailor in us, plenty of time at
sea to enjoy what we do, move the boat. For the vacationer in us, plenty
of food, libation, laughs, shore excursions and time for that unread book.
We considered having Gerome and Denise host a “Hummer Course”
aboard to compliment Holland America’s other cuisine courses, but we
figured “Hummers” mixed in with 2100 passengers once they ran out of
ice cream, may give rise to mutiny. So we sought a safer yet still BYC
tradition and settled for asking the Captain, a fine Dutch sailor, Captain
Vincent Smit, if he would oblige us by hoisting our Burgee upon the ships
mast. Go figure, he actually agreed to it.
Settled in our berth at St. Maarten, we were met by a young navigation officer from New Zealand who escorted us to the upper deck,
patiently posed for a few pics, climbed the ladder with burgee in hand to
the mast, and smartly hoisted BYC up the mast. Cool. Our seamanlike
duties complete, it was time to return to libation, shore excursions and
laughs.
Hard to imagine a better mid-winter’s respite than to hang with
your BYC buddies cruising in the Caribbean. Try it, you’ll like it. u
nture!

“...winning with your friends and family is what it’s all about.”
C
ommodore Dean Balcirak sailed his
first Bayview Mackinac Race in 1964 aboard a Pearson
Vanguard. That is a 33 foot boat that rates slightly faster
than a Cal 25. You’d be hard pressed to find anyone
today who would think that sailing from Port Huron to
Mackinac Island on one was a good idea. Commodore
Balcirak, however, thought it was a great idea.
So enthralled by the experience was Dean that he
chose to do it another 49 times, almost exclusively on
boats he owned (all but one of which were named Sea
Fever), and as a credit to his sanity, all on boats faster
than that Pearson Vanguard.
The next 49 years were sailed under CCA, IOR, IMS,
IRC, and PHRF, and on boats ranging from a Pearson 30
to a C&C 61 and everything in between. In the meantime, he was teaching at Grosse Pointe North, Grosse
Pointe South, and the Olympic Sailing School.
Nothing was more important to Dean than sailing
with his family, among whom he counted not just those
he was related to, but the many who have spent their
sailing lives on boats with him. Not only has he been
able to sail with three generations of his own family,
but two other families on the boat have featured two

generations on board, and more than a couple regular crew
members who have been with him for more than three or four
decades.
No conversation about Dean is complete without also talking about his wife of 42 years, Barbette. The efforts of Sea
Fever’s crews throughout the years have been fueled by Barb’s
cooking and (over) provisioning, and those crews have strived
to prove correct her theory that well-fed crews sail faster.
The highlight of Dean’s Bayview Mackinac Races occurred in
2004 when he accomplished something that never happened
before, and hasn’t happened since. Sea Fever performed a
clean sweep, winning first in class, first overall, and first in the
Yacht Club Challenge. Proudly, Sea Fever is the first and only
boat in the history of the Bayview Mackinac Race to accomplish that feat.
That this is the highlight of Dean’s Mackinac Races speaks
volumes to not only his commitment to sailing and helping
people learn to sail, but the importance that he places on
doing it with people he cares about. “Anybody can win races
with the rock stars,” as he’s been known to put it, “but
winning with your friends and family is what it’s all about.” u

he 2nd Annual Bayview One Design
(BOD) Regatta is in the books. After three days
of heavy winds, tough competition, and nonstop
entertainment, sailors and volunteers were left
exhausted but gratified about the weekend
events. “We have never seen such
beautiful awards and professional race
management in all our years of racing.
Simply put, it’s the best regatta I have ever
attended,” stated Paul Nuechterlein,
Cal 25 Racer.
Bayview Yacht Club and its local club
affiliates are extremely pleased with the
positive outcome and support received for their
international yacht racing event. “Without support
from our sponsors and 150-plus volunteers, our
capability would be limited. However, when your
goal is to be the best One Design Regatta in the
Great Lakes, you must plan and be prepared to step
it up a few notches. We pursued the best One Design
classes, sponsors, Race Committee, international
judges, and entertainment that were committed
and willing to attend. I’m happy everyone
responded,” said Brad Kimmel, 2013 Race Chairman.
Attendance for the BOD this year was just shy of 200
boats, including representation from twelve states, and three
countries (US, Canada, and Brazil). “Next year’s goal is
250. We want all great lakes sailors, PHRF or One Design
to experience a first class regatta comparable in its
overall quality as our offshore event, the Bell’s Beer
Bayview Mackinac Race,” commented Paul Hulsey,
2014 Race Chairman. One thing is for sure—all
participants agree the BOD regatta is something special.

Commodore
John S. Barbour
Memorial Regatta
Sunday, September 8, 2013
The University of Michigan Sailing Team is proud to announce
the Commodore John S. Barbour Memorial Regatta. This
event will be hosted out of Bayview Yacht Club in Detroit, MI on
Sunday, September 8, 2013. During registration, boats are offered
and encouraged to take a local junior sailor along for the ride.
Commodore Barbour was a lifelong sailor and incredibly active
member of Bayview Yacht Club since 1969. Mr. Barbour became
commodore in 1989 and was responsi-ble for the creation of the
NA40 class. Commodore Barbour raced competitively on his NA40’s,
and was adamant about keeping the fleet active, owning up to three
boats at one point. Some of his greatest accomplishments include
winning overall
division title in
the 1993 Port
Huron-Mackinac Race on Velero VI, and finishing
first overall in the racing division of the 100th
anniversary Chicago-to-Mackinac Race on Velero
VII in 2008.
Commodore Barbour’s passion for sailing and
sharing it with others encouraged the Michigan
Sailing Team to create an event in his honor.
As a club sport at the University, the team is
student –funded –governed and –managed. The
team is currently working toward a Capital Campaign goal of $100,000 to purchase a new fleet of
boats to maintain their competitiveness. Creating and running a big boat regatta at a local yacht club
has been a goal for a few years, and this year finally became a reality. The team participates in several
large scale fundraisers a year, however the profits from our Strictly Sail Chicago Booth and Annual
Banquet go directly to team operations.
The team hopes that the Commodore Barbour Memorial Regatta will help the team to establish
a sustainable fundraiser for our capital campaign. Additional goals of the event include developing
better ties to the Detroit Sailing Community as well as allowing junior sailors the opportunity to
participate in keelboat racing. Junior sailors throughout the DRYA are allowed to participate and boat
owners are encouraged to take a few junior sailors along to expose them to racing in bigger boats.
The regatta is open to boats with a valid PHRF rating. The event will consist of a one-day, 3-4
hour distance race on Lake St. Clair. We are offering an early bird registration special of $25/
boat. Registration will be through Yacht Scoring, and is opening soon. Please email our long-term
Fundraising Chair, Ansley Semack at [email protected] or our Race Chair, Will Cyr at
[email protected] if you have any questions.
