'The Cruising Club of iuf"merica

T

was launched in the winter of 1921-22 by a group of yachtsmen interested in cruising and the development of the cruising type of yacht. It was felt that this branch of the sport never had attained the position it deserves in a country so rich in sea-going tradition and whose natural advantages are so peculiarly favorable to cruising, possibly because of the fact that there never had been any concerted action by cruising enthusiasts. The yacht clubs of the country had made racing a large part of their activities and there were several inter-club associations devoted to the advancement of this branch of yachting, but there never had been in this country an organization comparable, for example, to the Royal Cruising Club, which, in the forty years preceding the formation of our Cruising Club had done so much toward making cruising a national institution in Great Britain. Very shortly after the Cruising Club of America was founded, Henry A. Wise Wood, a charter member, was requested to formulate ideas on the objectives and scope of the activities of our club. The following are excerpts from his report: c'We have chosen the title, Cruising Club of America. In choosing this title did we mean to imply that we are the Cruising Club of the United States? or of the United States and Canada? or of all the Americas? •.. As those to the north of us are our intimate friends, of our own sea loving stock, it would seem to be too narrow a view of our field did we rate ourselves only a national organization. As we are an off-shore club, composed of blue-water men whose playground lies well beyond the Volstead line, I suggest that we use in our title the word, America, in its geographical and not in its political sense. To do this should result in drawing into close relationship all the deep-water amateur sailormen of our hemisphere. This, I assume, is what we wish to do. "By gathering into a group all who are fond of off-shore work, we sow the wilderness of the sea with a host of acquaintances, for whose houseflags we shall always be expectantly watching. And we convert the winter into a season of sport, wherein those who have been afloat swap their summer's experiences with each other, and share them with their unfortunate shorebound clubfellows. "Let us refuse stoutly to accumulate an on-shore contingent; let membership in the Club be a mark of achievement. This policy will give us a standing at home and abroad such as no American yacht club ever has had. Besides, it will make of the Club burgee a bit of bunting that all afloat will respect, and that sea lovers everywhere will strive to possess. Thus we shall become an active force influencing others to make adventurous use of the sea.'., 4

When an application in complete form shall be received, the Secretary shall send to all members of the Club the names of the applicant, proposer, seconders, and any other information directed by the Governing Board. Not less than thirty days thereafter, the Membership Committee may act upon such application and report its findings and recommendations to the Governing Board, which may then elect or reject the applicant.

1E,arbep QConober Harvey Conover so greatly exemplified the seagoing traditions on w1iic11 tliis club was founded; because he was our past commodore; and because of his innumerable friends throughout the yac1iting fraternity, the following Resolution was unanimously passed by the Board of Governors March 21, 1958: ECAUSE

B

'The Board of Governors of the Cruising Club of America expresses its profound sorrow in the untimely death of its former Commodore, Harvey Conover, who was lost with his yawl Revonoc and all hands, including his wife, younger son, and daughter-in-law, in a winter gale in the Florida Straits in January, 1958. "He was born on November 24, 1892, in Chicago, Illinois, and for much of his life was one of the most active yachtsmen in the United States. In blue water cruising, to which he was dedicated, his competence matched his boundless enthusiasm. In competition his skill and determination won him countless trophies both on Long Island Sound, his home waters he so dearly loved, and in many ocean events. "Beyond all this, his personal characteristics, both as a man and as a sportsman, won him the admiration, respect, and affectionate regard of all who knew him. His influence was at all time exerted for the good of yachting, and the sport is the poorer for his passing. "THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that this Board, with a deep sense of its loss in the death of Harvey Conover, makes this record of its appreciation and sorrow; and "BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that this resolution be spread upon the minutes of this meeting, and that copies be sent to members of his family."

'l(§port of The :l.istorian

HE YEAR b egan w ith a tragedy for this club. On J a n. 1, 1958, former Commod ore H arvey C onover in his yawl Revonoc sailed from Key W est, Florida, b ound for Miami. 'With him were Mrs. Conover , their son and daughter-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. L awren ce Con over, and William Fluegelman-all able, exp erienced offshore sailors. R evo11oc was a new b oat ; a keel-centerboard yawl 43 feet on deck, d esig ned , built and equipped to the m ost exacting specifications for offshore cruising and racing in the light of C ommodore Conover's lifetime of e;..,-perie nce. On Jan. 2, with no w arning, a sudden local gale with 70-mile N N E gusts ripped through the Florida Straits, spreading havoc among vessels of all kinds in its path. On Jan. 6 Revon oc's pram d ingh y, sh owing indications of having been ripped off the yawl's d eck b y a sea, drifted ash ore at Jupiter Inlet, north of Miami. And that is a ll anyone knows, or prob ably ever w ill know, a b out w hat happened to the C onovers. There were d ozens of rumors and theories, but n ot one m ore certain fact has come to light. An air and surface search of great intensity combed ever y square mile of sea, coastline and reef w ithin hundred s of miles w h ere R evonoc might p ossibly have b een. A score of C ruising C lub m embers, am ong them Commod ore H erny B. duPont, Dick Bertram and Rod Ste phens, Jr., took part in the search as ad visers and ob servers. One of the Cruising Club's saltiest and b est-loved ex-commod ores h ad b een lost without a trace, leaving us all to rem ember that the sea can get the b etter of the b est of us. On a hap p ier note, the 1958 Bermuda Race turned out 111 starters -22 more than in any previous fleet in the 52-year history of the event. It h ad a spectacular start and a slow finish. A nor'west w ind that blew 35 knots d emonstrated to some of the contest ants thnt star ting under spinnakers was a mistake. That th ere were no casualties except to sails and one steering gear was d ue more t o luck than judgm ent. Th e nor'w ester didn't carry very far offshore, and three days after the start the leading b oats, after p assing throu gh a w eather front, found themselves becalmed , some for as long as 12 hours, in a b elt of d oldrums

T

18


a hundred miles and more north of Bermuda. The smaller craft, carrying the breeze, ran right up among the A boats. Then the breeze picked up again and the whole fleet came tumbling in-big ones and little ones all in a heap. The first boat to finish, Jack Hedden's Good News, hailing from San Francisco, took 4 days, 6 hours, 23 minutes, 48 seconds. The conditions produced results the like of which no one had ever seen. They favored the small boats so much that the first 24 Class D boats were also the first 24 on corrected time in the whole fleet; the winning Class A boat, \Veils Morss·s Legend, was 64th in the fleet and Good News, first in, 85th on corrected time. And with more than 100 boats sweeping across the offshore finish line during that black, windy night, the records got into such a state that it took RBYC chairman Henry Masters and his committee two days of checking with contestants to get everybody squared away and in the right order. Under such conditions it was all the more remarkable that Carleton Mitchell was able to score his second consecutive victory with that :fine little yawl Finisterre. He and other leaders, such as Colin Ratsey's Golliwogg and the British Belmore, which were second and third in Class D and the fleet; Wells Morss; Jack Potter, who won Class B with Touche II; Phil Miller who took C with Glory, and others, deserve great credit. Complete results of the race will be found elsewhere in the Year Book. The club cruise was held in waters west of Cape Cod, as usual on Bermuda Race years, and brought out a fine fleet, many of whom made the whole circuit. It started at Block Island July 21 with George Bonnell's 70th birthday chowder party and continued on to Hadley Harbor and Commodore duPont"s 60th birthday party on July 23, Nantucket July 26 with dinner ashore for many at the Nantucket YC; Quissett July 29 with a cocktail party ashore at Hurricane Hall and with A. M. Morse, Jr. and Arthur Herrington as hosts; Marion July 30 where local CCA members Butler, Gibbs and Goodwin put on a beach party; and finally Newport where the fleet disbanded on Aug. 2 in time for some of the participants to join the New York YC cruise. The largest fleet was 52 boats at Block Island; subsequently the count was 47 at Hadley's, 35 at Nantucket, 34 at Quissett, 44 at Jvlarion and 19 at Newport. Rendezvous in the Long Island Sound area took advantage of two three-day weekends. That over Memorial Day visited Price's Bend and Port Jefferson, while the Columbus Day ports of call were Oyster Bay and Port Jeff. Various stations held their own rendezvous, as their reports will show. Of interest beyond the club itself is a report issued during the year by the Committee on Design and Construction. Originally conceived for the help and guidance of the race committee inspectors in determining the fitness of entries to take part in tl1e Bermuda Race, this report developed into a document valuable to any owner or prospective owner interested in the soundness and seaworthiness of a yacht's hull, gear and equipment. Accordingly, it has been made available in pamphlet form to any interested yachtsmen.

The Blue Water Medal for 1957 was awarded to a CCA member, Dr. William F. Holcomb, of Oakland, Cal., in recognition of his successful cruise around the world, 1953-7, in the 48-foot schooner Landfall II. The Measurement Rule committee made minor changes in the Cruising Club Rule, penalizing oversized headboards and over-length battens in sails. The San Francisco Station passed the 24-member mark early in the year and became entitled to a Rear Commodore. A project for the writing of a complete history of the Club was launched during the year, with Blunt White heading a committee in charge and John Parkinson, Jr. doing the actual research and writing. At the end of the year it was well under way. Dinners were held at the New York YC on Jan. 23, when 178 members and guests saw Dan Morrell's pictures of the pr~vious summer's cruise to Maine; on Feb. 13, when Dr. Laurence Sloan ·showed striking moving pictures taken on a cruise on the Labrador with Dr. Paul Sheldon; on March 21, when Phil Rhodes, Olin Stephens and Jack Dickerson disclosed much advance information on the coming 12-Meter sloop campaign for the America's Cup; and on Nov. 7, when following the annual meeting Rod Stephens, Jr., told the story of the America's Cup defense by Columbia, accompanying moving pictures of the trials and final races. Commodore Henry B. duPont was re-elected at the annual meeting, the other 1959 officers named being Prescott B. Huntington, vice comm.; Robert L. Hall, secretary, Richard S. Nye, treasurer; John Parkinson, Jr., historian, G. W. Blunt White, Alexander Strong, DeCoursey Fales, Arthur Knapp, Jr., and William T. Stone, governors. A committee headed by ex-Comm. Ralph Case represented the Cruising Club in the fight against permitting low fixed bridges over the navigable waterways-a fight that for the present at least has kept the minimum clearance at 80 feet. The club started the year with a membership of 653, and ended it with 673. WILLIAM H. TAYLOR

T

HE FIRST day of the year found Irving Johnson's Yankee in Mozambique Channel in the greatest storm he experienced in seven voyages round the world. He was later seen in Nassau, and again off Man-o'-War Cay, where Hobey Ford served as pilot. The Yankee ended her last voyage under Irving's colors on May 1 at Gloucester. Richard Wagner had a short cruise among the British Virgin Islands in February. During the spring, Don Gardner and Hank Streeter took part in the Miami-Nassau Race, and Francis Chamberlain sailed with John Wilson in the Western Star in the St. Petersburg to Miami Race and afterwards back to Charleston. Herb Barlow chartered his old Onward III for a cruise from Martinique through the Windward and Leeward Islands to St. Thomas, while Borogove III, Goosander, Blessed Event and Northern Crown made their way to and among the Bahama Islands. The Hatchet Bay YC on Eleuthera was very proud of a new house flag designed by Don Gardner. Ken Mayo reports cruising along both coasts of Florida, proceeding across the state from one to the other. As the sun worked north, the rest of the fleet was activated, the opening of the season being signalized by a Memorial Day rendezvous at Pocasset and neighboring waters. In the race to Bermuda, Wells Morss won in Class A with the Legend, Amory Jeffries sailing with him. Rich Warren took the gallant old Narwhal into both the OH Soundings and

22


Bermuda races ( ex-owner Bob Leeson in the crew) and was eighth in Class C in the latter. About 30 of the 172 members of the Station did the bulk of their summer cruising along the coast of :Maine, Francis Chamberlain spending four months in that congenial activity. This sailing was not all leisurely, as Alan Bemis reports doing 20 knots in a catamaran on Eggemoggin Reach. Sohier \Velch reports puffins, phalaropes and a vendetta at ~fatinicus. Harold \\Tillis went up the St. John River. Further east was the cruising ground for Philip Singleton in the Olina, cruising along the east coast of Nova Scotia as far as Halifax, and for Charlie Bartlett, who picked up the Gurnet Light at Baddeck, went through the Lakes and the Straits of Canso, along the north shore of Nova Scotia to Prince Edward Island, out to the :Magdalens, (which he says are a very attractive destination) back around Cape North to Sydney. Dick Lyman was with him for three weeks, and he and Burnham Porter brought the vessel back to civilization again. George Killam in a new motor cruiser went from Yannouth to Montreal via New York, the Hudson River, Lake Champlain and the Saint Lawrence, returning by the same route. !vlcCa.Ilum Grant cruised the Nova Scotia coast from May to November except for a trip to Norfolk, Va. About a dozen members braved the tide-river waters of Vineyard and Nanh1cket Sounds, some of them joining the Club Cruise during its majestic progress through those parts. Among the farthest asea were Bill Brewer, who spent four days traversing the Rhine from Basie to Rotterdam on a barge, \Voof Hallowell, who cruised in Holland in a Booikia Ark ( or what looks like that in his handwriting), Thorvald Ross, who made some small boat trips in the South Seas during a circumnavigation in the Bergensfiord, and Peabo Gardner, who spent three weeks in Grecian waters. Chartering Hod Fuller's schooner Aegean, he circumnavigated the Peloponnesus, cruised among the Ionian Islands and passed through the nru.Tow strait separating Corfu from Yugoslavia. Peabo is the author of a new book on sailing adventures down east called "Ready About", published by A. S. Barnes Co., which should not be missed. Later in the season, in September and October, Robert Amory, Jr. did some cruising in Upper Chesapeake Bay, and as winter's icy fingers began to close etc., Sandy Cameron had taken the Blessed Event back down to Daytona Beach for the winter, while Commodore McHosenozzle's Fondest Memo1·y was still cleaving the ice of Manchester and smTotmding waters. The oldest vessel reported was Gil Ervin's Riddle, 52 years. Perhaps the record for attendance goes to Jack Perrin, who had 110 people on board the Jopachee, 22' o.a.-not all at once of course. The only member besides Irving Johnson reporting an ocean crossing during the year was Spaulding Dunbar of Chatham, who, after a cruise in the Baltic, left Amsterdam in October for Lisbon, French Morocco, Las Palmas ( Gran Canaria), to the Barbados and through various West Indies and Bahama Islands to Miami, in the ketch Ocean Pearl. There was a meeting for members only on March 28th. The spring dinner was held on May 2nd at the Tavern Club, where Dr. Paul 23

L


Sheldon showed splendid pictures of his 1957 cruise in Labrador. Nothing but good reports have been coming from that area recently. Over Columbus Day, rendezvous were held at Hingham and Smith's Cove for the northerners and at Quissett and Cuttyhunk for the southerners. The annual meeting was held on December 12th, at which our Rear-Commodore was elected for another term by loud acclaim. Captain Fred Lawton gave an interesting talk on the America's Cup trials and races. The annual Jeffrey's Ledge Race is reported separately. DONALD C. STARR, Historian THE JEFFREY'S LEDGE RACE

Light northeasterly airs and a little haze awaited the 19 entrants lying at anchor in the outer harbor of Manchester on Saturday, September 6th. The smallest of the Beet, Shag, was first to start at about 0739, and then one after another received the starting signal, the last being Pandora N which did not get away until after noon, being the yacht with the highest rating under the Jeffrey's Ledge rule. The passage across Cape Cod Bay was easy for all, although the winds were generally light and ahead, but the end of Cape Cod was masked in fog and in trying to locate the 2PH whistler in the heavily running tide the fleet, early and late starters together, began to collect. It was well after dark before boats began to tum the buoy and square away for the run to 2JL, under spinnakers as has so often been the case. During the night the wind picked up until most of the yachts had all they wanted. On Jeffrey's Ledge the usual slop was encountered, but for some reason the whistle on 2JL was more inclined to peep than squawk and some of the skippers had their troubles. In this area Brenda caught a sea with her main boom and snapped it, but not at all discouraged she continued under genoa and jigger and by judicious use of her power finished creditably. Early in the morning, with the wind holding and fairing, Whistler approached Cape Ann with the Beet well under her lee, but she elected to round the Cape rather than running the risks of the Annisquam River and canal, and south of Cape Ann she ran into the usual tricky winds and gluey tidal conditions which have so often frustrated the hopes of prospective winners. It was just after noon on Sunday when Tango II and Serene rounded House Island and headed for the finish line only yards apart. They crossed in that order, less than a minute separating them, and right behind came Safari, with Whistler still half an hour's sailing away. An hour after Whistler, Pandora IV, Crow's Nest IV and KwaiLow finished in that sequence. Eight yachts failed to complete the course, some by reason of equipment failure and in other instances because 2JL was too elusive and Monday morning obligations faced skippers or crews. Tango II became the first winner of the perpetual Jeffrey"s Ledge Trophy, donated by Richard W. Pratt, and her skipper and the skippers of Serene and Safari received their trophies at the annual meeting and dinner of the Station on December 12th. J. ALBERT CHAMBERS, Chairman 24

Winter Dinner Meeting: March 13. Spring Rendezvous: l\fay 1-2. Annual Regatta: Memorial Day weekend. Fall Rendezvous: Oct. 22-23-24.

AST MARCH 7, our Station really "put on the dog" to start things off at a delightful dinner party at the Anderson House, Washington, through the courtesy of Henry duPont Baldwin. This was a most pleasant evening amid unusual surroundings and well attended. The entertainment was purely "off the cuff' and a lot of fun. We are a selfsufficient group when properly primed. The Spring Rendezvous was a two-day affair. A few yachts rafted at Whitehall Creek on May 16, the group swapping yarns and talking big for the coming season. Next evening, all hands attended a steak dinner at the South River Y. C., many going by car. A cocktail party on the club pier triggered the party, probably contributing to its success. There was a sizable group.

The F all Rendezvous started w ith a cocktail party a t the Anna polis Y. C. on October 23. About 80 p ersons a ttended. On the follow ing d ay, warm and summery, the fleet sailed in light air to G ibson Isla nd w here we enjoyed the excellent food always ser ved there. O n Saturday, the yachts proceeded to Grays I nn C reek, off the C hester River, a nd tied up at Eugene duPont's d ock. C ocktails and prize presenting were managed in what was once a slave h ouse, not used as such an y m ore. T he w eather was lovely. Next d ay, Sunday, was an early taste of \ \linter, w ith no sun and spitting rain, but we managed to have our election of o fficers and those rem aining enjoyed a b owl aboard Arnie Gay's M aran. T hos. Closs took the E arle Smith Memorial T rophy. Retiring Rear Com. \ Vm. T . Stone earned the coveted Blunder Mug for messing up tli e race circular so as to render it nearly useless. Perhaps the m ost significant plan for the 1959 season is a regatta to be held Memorial D ay w eekend, open to any m ember of a recognized yacht club, an affair to b e two days of competitive saiJing, p ort to port, with a get-together after each day. The idea is t o stimulate overnight cruising in all types of b oats. If the first Regatta proves a su ccess, w e will try t o sponsor it every year. The above report was d evelop ed at a luncheon ab oard fl agship Fantasy, iced in at Annapolis, Md.

Spring Dinner on April 25 at the Essex YC an excellent ham dinner was served to 28 members and guests. Two or three of our boats, afloat early, lay at their moorings off the clubhouse. Rear Commodore Sparrc provided the entertainment for the evening by giving us an account of his passage in Arabella from Essex to Sweden in 1955, and his return hy the Southern route in 1956-all illustrated by excellent colored photos thrown on a screen. The Spring HPndezvous was at Dering Harbor, and 14 boats took part, 12 of them in one raft. The weather was perfect, and some of the fleet took advantage of it by sailing around in the Shelter Island waters. The usual cocktail party was held on board ,vhite Mist and Cyane. The highlight of the party was the presentation of a silver bowl to George Bonnell, charter member and past commodore of the Club and past rear-commodore of the Essex Station, in recognition of his outstanding services to our Club and to our Station, and to commemorate his 70th birthday. The Station Flagship Henrietta, a schooner recently acquired by Rear Commodore Spane, was boarded by many of our members, who had not previously seen her. On July 21st the Annual Club Cruise got off to a good start by the Essex Station, with one of George Bonnell's famous chowders on his beach at Block Island. The weather was perfect, and more than 300 Club members and guests from the 62 boats lying off tl1e beach devoured thousands of little necks, followed by the chowder. After dinner a birthday cake was presented to George by Commodore duPont. Upon cutting the cake, George found, baked inside, four cans of ''Salt Sea'' clam chowder. After this, charter members and Past Commodore Bonnell announced to Commodore duPont and the assembled company, that, provided certain clauses in the charter could be adjusted to permit its acceptance, he would give his Block Island beach and adjoining land to the Cruising Club of America, for the use of the

A

T THE

27


members. This announcement was of course received with tremendous acclaim. The Fall Rendezvous was held as usual at Dering Harbor, on October 4th, 14 boats participating. There was a cocktail party on board of Olil Glory. The fleet consisted of Station flagship Henrietta, Club flagship Cyane, Balek, Canty, Cormorant, Felicia III, Gilpie, Old GlonJ, Pride & Joy, Red Head, Savage, "\Vhite Mist, and guest boats Sea Spray and Sea Tern. The homeward voyage, next day, was quite normal-wind working up to 35 knots, with fog and rain, but is was good sailing. Our Annual Meeting was held on December 5th, at the Essex YC, Rear-Commodore Sparre presiding, with 25 members present. The Rear Commodore, the Secretary-Treasurer and the Committee Chairmen made their reports, covering the matters heretofore outlined in this Report. The Station's membership is 62, no change in number for the year; one member, Joseph W. Appleton, having died, and one new member, David L. Bacon, having been added to our rolls. The slate of Officers, presented by the nominating Committee (John S. Dickerson, Jr., Chairman) was unanimously elected as follows: Rear-Commodore, Henry A. Scheel Secretary-Treasurer, F. Kelso Davis Historian, W. Perry Curtiss ( Perry Curtiss, at a later date, declined this election, and Robert B. English, Jr. was appointed Historian.) Rear Commodore Scheel then relieved the Chair, and made appropriate remarks of appreciation of his predecessor's leadership. During the course of the evening the following matters were discussed:( A) That steps be taken to have the name "Bonnell's Cove" adopted to designate the waters off George Bonnell's beach at Block Island. To accomplish this, the following Committee was appointed: Commodore duPont, Ted Daggett and Blunt White, Chairman; with power to act. ( B) That action be taken to further that object of our Club mentioned in Article II of our Constitution, namely, "to gather and keep on file all information which may be of assistance to members in cruising." Ralph Case was prevailed upon to undertake such work, covering Eastern Long Island Sound. The meeting closed with the announcement by the Rear Commodore of the Committee appointments and the Schedule of Events, as listed in this report. After the meeting, a New England boiled dinner was served, and later we were entertained by our fellow-member Norrie Hoyt who gave an account, illustrated by colored slides, of his cruising during the past year, with his family, in their Atalanta Class sloop over the land and waters of Florida, the Mississippi, California, the Pacific Northwest, and the intervening territory usually considered not navigable. This cruising 28


had been interrupted at times by Norrie's teaching duties, and also by his participation in the Bermuda Race (not in his own vessel). The activities of some of our members during the past year, which seem of more than usual interest were: The part we took in the defense of the America's Cup. This included: Jack Dickerson's summer-long work as Chairman of the NYYC Regatta Committee, handling the Cup Races themselves and, beforehand, the trial races, to choose the defender; Commodore du Font's Nor>easter, serving as Committee Boat throughout these races; Commander Dan Larkin, Jr., USN being detailed as Liaison officer, coordinating the activities of the Navy and the Coast Guard, in connection with the races; Ev Dickinson's duty on board of one of the mark boats. The Comstocks, Bob Englishes and Morrells took a quite unusual 300 mile house-boat cruise in the waters of interior Florida-shallow waters never to be reached in thir own boats; Bill Gaines spent the winter in Red Head based on Nassau, as usual; Mel Southworth is building a new boat, abroad. A really important cruise was that of Fred Richards, with two companions, in his 30 ft. sloop Golden Fleece> to Iceland. They left Milford, Conn. on June 14th, touched at St. Johns, Newfoundland, and arrived at Reykjavik July 14th. The cruise was well-planned, uneventful, and most enjoyable. They spent three weeks ashore in Iceland and shipped Golden Fleece home. JoHN K. MURPHY, Historian

D

URING 1958 the San Francisco Station arrived at a membership

total sufficient to have a Rear-Commodore. Charles A. Langlais, the first Post Captain, became the first Rear-Commodore and Adios I I the first Cruising Club flagship on the West Coast. The big cruise of the year was to the Gum Trees on Montezuma Slough. It turned out to be the hottest ( weatherwise) cruise we have ever had. 29


Our members individuall y cruised very extensively. R ear-Commodore Langlais cruised as usual to the Gulf of Lower Californ ia as a guest on Dorado, owned by T ed Conant, a fellow m ember of the Cruising Club of America. Tom Short sailed Tasco to British C olumbia. Bill Mills sailed Andale to the Channel Islands off Santa Barbara. Jim \ Vilhite and Hank Brigham were crew on Jack H edden's yawl, Good Neu;s, in the Bermuda Race. T om Ingersoll also took part in the Bermuda race. Charlie Robie h as b een on Good News with Jack H edde n, sailing to Panama on the way to the W est Coast. James Michael w on the season's championship for San Francisco Bay on his g rand ship Baruna. W e have had the pleasure of having Francis \ Vclch and T ed Banks of the Boston Station visit us. The following memb ers of the San Francisco Station went south to b e guests of Ted Conant on Dorado for the first rendezvous of the Southern California Station: A. \ i\l. Ford, Tom Ingersoll, L ester Stone, Jim Wilhite, Tom Short, Chas. A. Langlais. We are very pleased w ith the award of the Blue Water Iviedal to one of the members of our Station, Dr. Holcomb. If any Cruising Club members are in our area, either call the RearCommodore or the St. Francis YC (WEst 1-2700 ) . You will be m ade welcome.

THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA STATION

Rear-Commodore: W. L. Stewart, Jr. Union Oil Center, Los Angeles 17, Cal. Secre-tary-Treasurer: Howard W. \ i\lright 330 North San Rafael St., Pasadena, Cal. Rendezvous and Cruise Chairman: D onald B. Ayres 5848 W est Pico Blvd., Los Angeles 19, Cal. N_NOVE~BER 21 the first Fall Rendezvo~s of the ~outhern Califorma Station of the Club was held at Fisherman s Cove, Catalina Island. Sixteen members attend ed, in addition to eight members from the San Francisco Station, and there were six yachts. \ i\Te were honored by the presence of Commodore du Pont on this occasion. A meeting of the members of the Southern California Station was held on December 30 at the California Club for the purpose of electing officers and to formulate plans for the coming year. W. L. Stewart, Jr. was unanimously re-elected Post Captain, and Howard W . Wright Secretary-Treasurer, of the Station. D onald B. Ayres was appointed Chairman of the Rendezvous and Cruise Committee, as it was the consensus of the members present that the Station should a Spring Cruise as well as a F all Rendezvous. A Station procedure was adopted in proposing new m embers, to the effect that before a m ember discusses possible m embership with a

0

30


candidate, the member shall present candidate's name to the members at a Station m eeting. If the Station members :u-e agreeable, the member m ay then take ste ps to have the candidate proposed, seconded and supported for membership. Prior to forwarding the membership application form a nd the \":trious letters to the i\fombership Committee of the Club, tJ1 e candida te's p:1pers should be reviewed at the Station meeting. Two of our members emb:1rked on cruises of unusual note tJ1e past year. The P ost Capt:1in took delivery of a new motor sailer from Abeking & Rasmussen the first of June, and cruised to the Mediterranean, where h e spent three months cruising in the Balearic Islands and along the soutJ1 coasts of Spain and France. In October and November he sailed Cordonazo from Bremen to Puerto Rico, by way of Plymouth, the Madeira Islands :1ncl the Virgin Islands. In January, Gabriel Giannini completed an interesting cruise down the coasts of California , ?\foxico, and Central America, through the Panama Canal, tJ1e Caribbean, to i\Iiami. He encountered one severe storm during which he was under bare poles going in the wrong direction for two days.

THE

QUISSETT STATION

Post Captain: A. Metcalf Morse, Jr. Quissett Harbor, Falmouth, Mass. ;-.:oouBTEDLY, as far as Quissett H arbor was concerned, the 1958 sailing season proved to b e the busiest ever. Membership in the Quissett YC reached an all time high. Their Junior Instruction program and their busy race schedule, plus the many boats moored here by Quissett residents, has mad e it increasingly difficult for visitors to find anchorage room in the congested i1mer harbor. To provide a safe and pleasant anchorage for our visiting members a 750-lb. mushroom with 3/4" chain and a heavy pendant is located to the SS\i\T of the red spherical buoy at the inner entrance just outside of Clam Island. It is maintained in part by the largess of the Quissett Station members and in part b y the Boston Station treasury. On July 29th, a large fleet of yachts on the annual Cruise, stopped at Quissett and more tJ1an 200 members and their guests attended a lawn party at Hurricane Hall given by Art Henington and your post captain. On October 11th, tJ1e Boston Station held a rendezvous at Quissett and, in spite of tJ1e very cold and windy weather, an impressive fleet was on hand. Quissett Harbor is about two miles distant from shopping areas and if assistance is desired on matters of trnnsportation, communication, or general information members are most welcome to come ashore at Hurricane Hall. Fuel, ice, water, garbage bins and a public telephone are available at the boat dock on the inner harbor.

HE GROWING popularity of the Florida Station's Annual Race from

Miami to Palm Beach was proven by 27 starters on December 12, 1958-nearly double the 1957 entry list. NNW winds, 15 to 20 MPH, made monstrous seas in the Gulf Stream. While the temperature was low, the bright sunshine made fine sailing. Most yachts sailed long port tacks into the Stream and short starboard tacks, the majority not losing sight of land. 23 finished and 4 withdrew at Ft. Lauderdale due to gear failure. Another fine presentation party was given by the Sailfish Club of Palm Beach.

He took delivery of his new Ariel V, built by Warren Bailey, in time for the SORC 1959 schedule. Jim Crawford is making a round-the-world cruise in his 51' schooner Dirigo II. His 1958 Christmas greetings were from Suva, Fiji Islands. Chas. H. Baker, Jr., took delivery of his Garden-designed 61' centerboard sloop Mata Hari in Seattle. He cruised through the islands for 1400 miles toward Alaska, then south to the Panama Canal, along the coast of Central America to Yucatan, and to Miami. Many ports were visited and a wonderful cruise of 12,000 miles reported. 32

THE

HUNTINGTON STATION

Post Captain: Robert Hartwell Moore Halesite, L.I., N.Y.

W

HILE THE Huntington Station is the oldest Cruising Club Station,

it has never been operated on a formal basis. Over the years one or the other of us have rendered various services such as ferrying guests out to the Rendezvous, car service to and from the Penn Station and tl1e Huntington Yacht Club, arranging moorings for stayovers from one week-end t o the next, and occasionally assisting those stayovers with respect to provisions, ice, and the like. It is tl1e custom for members and their non-member guests to telephone either Robert S. Moore ( HAmilton 1-4238 ), Robert Hall ( HAmilton 1-3439) or myself, Rob ert H. Moore ( HAmilton 3-0004), for transportation to Price's Bend or the Lloyd's H arbor rendezvous.

GoMMITTEE

'l(§PoR Ts

Gonditions of ~embership ( This report was first read and approved at the annual meeting held on January 23, 1936. It was subsequently revised by the Membership Committee in 1952 and approved by the Governing Board on October 11 of that year. The committee which made the 1952 revisions consisted of: Chet wood Elliott, chairman; E. Standish Bradford, Edward R. Greeff, Prescott B. Huntington and Roderick Stephens, Jr.)

T

HE :MEMBERSHIP COMMITrEE under the chairmanship of Carleton

S. Cooke prepared a special report in 1936 which was ordered printed and circulated to the membership. This report served a very useful purpose, so useful in fact that it was revised on June 18, 1942, and approved by the Governing Board and ordered reprinted July 9, 1942. It is the opinion of your present Membership Committee that this report should be again revised based on the past ten years experience, and we now submit a revised, special report accordingly.

I Your eligibility rules, as found in the Constitution and the proposal form, are as follows: ''The Membership Committee in considering proposals will be guided by the following: "Article V, Paragraph I, of the Constitution of the Club, which reads, 'A person eligible for membership must be a sailor and a gentleman of acceptable character and personality who has demonstrated his ability to handle or command and navigate or pilot a yacht or small vessel at sea and who has had sufficient cruising experience.' "The candidate's record must show substantial compliance with these requirements; ordinarily that he has had several seasons of recent cruising experience. Experience in racing, or in alongshore trips from harbor to harbor, is not ordinarily considered as complying with the standards of the Club. "Unusual voyages will be given due consideration. Yacht ownership will be given full weight, but is not essential." Detailed discussion of the eligibility rules follows in Section IV of this report.

34


II In addition to the eligibility requirements Article V of the Constitution also contains the following: "Favorable recommendations by the Membership Committee shall not exceed in any calendar year a number to be prescribed from time to time by the Governing Board:, On February 23, 1951, the Governing Board adopted the following rules which are subject to being amended at any meeting of the Governors: (a) No one shall be elected to membership who at the time of election is under 21 years of age; ( b) The election of those over 21 and under 26 shall be regarded as exceptions. The Governors may, at their discretion, after recommendation by the Membership Committee, make such exceptions in special cases; ( c) There shall be no upper age limit.

III It is earnestly requested that members, before sponsoring candidates for membership, consider carefully not only the eligibility requirements but also the above rules laid down by the Board of Governors. It should be remembered that the Cruising Club is a club and not merely an organization of persons meeting certain minimum qualifications. Therefore, only those candidates should be proposed whose election to membership in the opinion of the sponsors will be welcomed by the present members and beneficial to tl1e Club as a whole. It is suggested that each member before deciding to act as proposer or seconder for a candidate ask himseH the following questions: (a) Would you like to take a long voyage with the candidate aboard a small vessel? ( b) Would you enjoy the company of the candidate, glass in hand, in the cabin of a small yacht? ( c) Would you be willing to loan your yacht to the candidate for a cruise of several days? ( d) Would the candidate in your opinion take a real and active interest in Club activities? ( e) Would other members feel as you do about the candidate?

IV Considering the eligibility rules in detail: "A person eligible for membership in the Club must be1. "A SAn.oR" ... This word does not exclude seaman by trade or profession. It has long ceased to mean only a rope-and-canvas seaman; a mariner in steam

35

L


or power is likewise a sailor. We consider, however, that experience in sail is extremely important though not absolutely essential, and the qualifications and record of a candidate with little or no experience in sail, receive more than usual scrutiny. 2.... "A.ND A GENTLEMAN OF ACCEPTABLE CHARACTER AND PERSONALl'IY" . . . Your Committee has at all times endeavored to be assured that the candidate is the type of person who merits not only respect for his seagoing ability and record, but also the friendship and good will of the members of the Club. It is your Committee's firm conviction that it is not your desire to admit to your membership any person with whom you would not care to be associated, whether ashore or on board. Your Committee is dependent on the members of the Club for information on this vital matter. Favorable recommendations by members have our serious attention. Opposition or objection by any member or members is considered and investigated with all possible care. It is needless to say that our deliberations and all communications made to us are kept in the strictest confidence.

3 . ... "'WHO HAS DEMONSTRATED HIS ABILITY TO HANDLE OR COMMAND"•••

Such ability may be demonstrated in various ways; for example, a sufficient number of creditable voyages or cruises, on which the candidate has been in a responsible position. In sponsoring a candidate, one should consider whether one would entrust his own boat to him for an extensive voyage. 4. . .. ''AND NAVIGATE OR PILOT'' ... Thorough knowledge of, and experience in coast-wise piloting is absolutely essential. Experience in the practical use of celestial navigation is not a requirement but is given considerable weight, as it generally involves experience in offshore cruising. 5.... ''A YACHT OR SMALL VESSEL AT SEA" . . . "At sea" does not mean landlocked or alongshore waters. This evidently excludes one whose cruising has been substantially confined, for example, to Long Island or other sounds. 6. . .. "AND WHO HAS HAD SUFFICIENT CRUISING EXPERIENCE" . . . This is somewhat elastic. What is "sufficient"' and what is "cruising experience"? In the sense here used, the word "cruising" has a special significance which is easier to understand than to de6ne. Racing and day sailing do not come within our understanding of the word, nor do commercial voyages, nor those on which the candidate was practically a passenger. Extended coastwise or offshore cruises or runs, involving passages at night and out of sight of land, as distinguished from so-called "harbor-hopping'., are favorably regarded. There is a certain amount of lee-way here, but we consider that it must appear that the candidate goes to sea and anchors in far-off harbors for the love of it rather than for such ends as the excitement of racing, the desire to win

36


trophies, for his means of livelihood, for fishing trips, visits to nearby harbors, motor-boating to Florida for the winter, and similar purposes. 7.... "THE CANDmATE•s REconn MUST Saow SUBSTANTIAL CoMPuANCE WITH TIIESE REQUIREMENTS; ORDINARILY 'THAT HE HAS HAD SEVERAL SEASONS OF RECE.~ CRUISING EXPERIENCE" ..•

Since it is present interest in cruising which is the test, it must appear that the candidate•s experience is recent, not a matter of bygone years. ( Your Committee will make allowance for war conditions in considering this point.)

8. ... "EXPERIENCE OR INTERF.ST IN RACING, OR IN ALoNGSHORE TmPs FROM HARBOR TO liARBoR, IS NOT ORDINARILY CONSIDERED AS CoMPLYING WITH THE STAN'DARDS OF THE Cum.''

A man who has never been offshore nor spent a night at sea, whose cruising consists of short trips between harbors, is not usually considered qualified. 9 . ... "UNUSUAL VOYAGES Wll.L BE GIVEN DUE CONSIDERATION." The meaning is obvious. We may add that long cruising races are favorably considered. But racing is not cruising, and ocean races can no longer be described as unusual voyages; they are recognized as valuable experience but they cannot be substituted for the other requirements. 10. . .. "YACHT OWNERSillP Wil.L BE GIVEN FULL WEIGHT, BUT IS NOT EssENTIAL.

11

While we believe it desirable to have a creditable Club Fleet, there are men who are or would be excellent members, who cannot afford to own boats; this is especially true of younger men, who should be encouraged as assets to the future of the Club. A man who fully complies with our requirements should not be refused because he does not own a boat. But we sometimes feel that where an experienced candidate of advanced years does not own a boat, when he apparently could afford to, this fact may indicate a lack of present and continuing interest in the sport.

V It is absolutely essential that full information be supplied as required on the proposal form, and that tl1e proper letters from the sponsors and adequate supporting letters be received. In a great many cases the members of the Membership Committee are not acquainted with the candidate and consequently have to depend on information thus received in order to reach a conclusion. Where a Station of the Club is established under the command of a rear-commodore we will expect approval of any candidate from that area by the Station's Membership Committee before making any final recommendation. 37


VI The names of candidates, whose proposals appear to be in order are published in notices sent to all the membership by the Secretary, as required by the Constitution. The purpose of this is to afford every member ample opportunity to give your Committee his knowledge and opinion as to the candidate"s eligibility and desirability-or the contrary. The Committee believes that each member should consider it his duty to examine all such lists carefully and to inform the Committee promptly of any facts concerning any particular candidate which he has reason to believe the Committee may not already know. If because of the neglect or reluctance of some member to supply the Committee with important information the Committee is led into error, we believe that the best interests of the Club have not been properly served. We can function only with the assistance of the members of the Club. With that assistance we intend to enforce what we conceive to be your desire, namely, that your Club shall continue to be an organization to which it is a pleasure and a distinction to belong.

Report of The ~easurement Rule Gommittee

D

URINc THE year a number of communications have been received

by the Chairman, the substance of which point up rnlings which may not be clearly defined or which appear to be regarded as inequitable. Several of the letters to the Rule Committee Chairman have been about mizzen staysails. A proposed revision of the Rule requires tacking mizzen staysails to the bulwark rail cap, deck, or cabin trunk abaft the aftermost point of intersection of the mast and deck. It also requires that, mizzen staysails must be triangular in shape. An unlimited number of mizzen staysails may be carried. The method of determining the ability of a yacht to carry sail continues to be the least satisfactory computation in the Rule. The possibilities of developing a simple substitute for the base ballast/displacement ratio as a means of measuring the relative stability of different yachts have been explored fruitlessly. There have also been many suggestions regarding certain pieces of equipment that should be considered as ballast. The feasibility of weighing all yachts to determine accurately their displacement has likewise been proposed. However, lacking an improved substitute, use of the base ballast/displacement ratio as now determined will continue. In view of the many indications that beamy boats sail faster than .'38


their current ratings indicate, a further change in the base ballast/displacement ratio is being considered. The effect of beam as a factor in resistance ( not to be confused with beam as an element in stability) l1as likewise been studied. The relative value of the fore triangle area and the area of the "mast sails" is being reviewed with a proportionately greater rating being placed on the fore triangle area a probability. The Rule as now written encourages particularly advantageous exploitation of the fore triangle. 1vlost important is a rearrangement of the Rule together with rewording of many of its parts. A comprehensive job has been performed by a subcommittee comprised of Arthur Homer, chairman, with DeCoursey Fales and Alexander Strong as members. It is believed that the redrafted Rule is much easier to understand that the version which has been in use for a number of years and that the simplification of presentation will enable owners to take the measure of responsibility they must assume if yachts are to be rated under the spirit as well as the letter of the Rule. The redraft also attempts to define the wind conditions under which the Rule can be e:-..-pected to produce equitable racing without establishing an assumed course of different length from the actual course length for time allowance calculations. Inasmuch as past changes in the Rule have tended to increase the ratings of all boats, a reduction in the decimal .95 in the Measurement Rule formula is under consideration. During the year the membership of the Committee has been enlarged to include a representative from the West Coast and also one from the Great Lakes. Already it is apparent that these representatives have furthered the best interests of yachting as well as the Cruising Club by providing avenues of communication with yachtsmen in the areas in which they sail The redrafted Rule and changes finally recommended will become effective as promptly as possible. The recommended changes in the Rule will have been carefully reviewed by the Technical Advisers and discussed at Committee meetings. They will reflect the wisdom of individuals with a variety of association with ocean racing. H. IRVING PRATI, Chairman

Report of The Cruise Committee

L

ATE IN 1957 Commodore duPont asked me to organize and run the Club cruise for 1958. Almost immediately a very competent group consisting of Daniel Morrell, Gordon Gibbs, Norris Hoyt, Colin

39


Ratsey, Robert M. Love, and John B. Bindloss, chairman, began the early correspondence and formation of plans which we thought would merit the consideration of all members interested in cruising the New England waters south of Cape Ann. Much attention was given to a suggested alternate cruise to split off at Block Island and cruise the Peconic Bay and eastern Long Island Sound area, rejoining the fleet at either Nanrucket or at Quissett. This split cruise plan, it was believed, would draw from the eastward those who had not been west of Block Island for some time and might perhaps make at Block Island the party to end all parties, reasons for which will be seen upon reading the section concerning it. Another suggested feature for this cruise was another split off at Nanrucket, offering those who wished an opportunity to sail outside the Cape to Provincetown and rejoin the cruise at Marion or Quissett. At this time certain specials were being planned that ruled out the split cruise idea. The committee adopted the usual short cruise for a Bermuda Race Year, starting at Block Island, our first scheduled rendezvous.

The Essex Station, our host at Block Island, Danny Morrell in charge, with George P. P. Bonnell chef extraordinary, produced chowder and fixings for about 150 persons on shore. There were also two barrels of little necks opened and consumed. The 52 assembled craft rafted when possible, clammed, swam and planned for George's 70th birthday party which was celebrated at the chowder party. A suitable cake was presented with the best wishes of all. This made our charter member, Bonnell, most happy. Notable at this gam was the expressed intention by George to set aside from his extensive real estate holdings, that portion so often used by the club members for beach parties. This area eventually will become club property. A suitable response was made by Commodore duPont to this kind offer and it was agreed by all that if those who follow us could have as much fun at ..Bonnell's Beach" as we have had, all desired intentions would be fulfilled. From Block Island our fleet made the usual lay-overs of choice and joined again at Hadley Harbor, with several additional boats. Here Robert M. Love arranged for and executed the most unusual party to celebrate the Commodore's 60th birthday and his cruise party. With Fleet Captain Fred Adams, Bob put together a raft of 16 larger craft and on this began a celebration which will long be remembered. Commodore's cocktail parties are usually pretty gay affairs but when its date coincides with his 60th natal day, most anything can happen, and it did. Uncle Blunt White made the cake presentation with great fanfare, but before he was able to really reach his stride, a small powered barge whose name boards suitably carried ''Hank's Plank", landscaped with red and green geraniums, port and starboard and potted plants, interrupted by circling the raft, those aboard singing a specially composed birthday ballad entitled ..Uncle Hank, Our Commodore." 40


Commodore duPont then transferred his Hag to "Hank,s Plank,, and after being checked out by the officer in charge, steamed about the fleet on what might be termed a manoeuvering trial. Many turns and twists unknown to common ships were executed. So rare an occasion, we believe, was celebrated in the manner deserved. For Nantucket we had not ex-pected a large turn-out, but 35 boats made it for the weekend. The Club dinner dance was largely attended Saturday night and on Sunday noon a most delightful party was given us by Commodore and Mrs. Gifford, the officers and wives-a bang-up weekend for all. Some 34 boats moored at Quissett and about 225 persons gathered at the lawn party given by A. M. Morse, Jr. and Col. Arthur Herrington under the beautiful trees and among the gardens of Hurricane Hall. Our kind hosts• elaborate plans, their hospitality, and the appreciative yachtsmen made this one of our pleasantest gams. The short distance from Quissett to Marion, with a reaching breeze, was covered before lunch by most of the fleet, necessitating careful handling of anchor grog in preparation for the Marion Beach Party that afternoon. Gordon Gibbs, William Butler, II, and E. Leslie Goodwin at Gibbs Beach entertained about 200. There were 44 boats at anchor. Gordon's extraordinary new house, its lawn and beach was the setting for this party, so much enjoyed by everyone. From Marion many left the cruise to join the N.Y.Y.C. rendezvous at New London and the start of their annual cruise, so but 19 boats gathered at Newport for our final day. Here groups formed to celebrate the occasion preparatory to saying "So long.,, Commodore duPont disbanded the cruise at colors the nex1: morning. We feel that the cruise, though short in length was long in gaiety and good fellowship. The weather was not too co-operative, but there seemed to be the feeling we had a marvelous cruise. The committee thanks all who participated, especially the hosts and those who expended so much effort for our happiness. JoHN B. BINDLOss, Chafrman

Report of the 'Weather Information Gommittee ( of the Boston Station)

I

N THE SPIUNG OF 1956 the Boston Station decided to undertake an

experimental program to provide its membership with a schedule of radio weather broadcasts which would be useful to those cruising the coast away from their home waters.

41


After study of the various sources from which really worthwhile weather information could be obtained, a so-called "manual" describing these sources and their use, and a card showing time, station, kilocycle, and location from which this information was broadcast was printed. Copies were sent to all members of the Boston Station June, 1956. Since the comments of those who used this information during 1956 were favorable, the project was continued. Copies of the weather broadcast schedules have now been produced for the entire membership, with some extras for others who have been interested, for both 1957 and 1958, and a similar listing is planned for 1959. Experience has Jed to some revision of the original "manual"; condensation of broadcasting station listings; and reduction in the size of the card on which the schedules are shown. Continuing effort is being made also for better selection from the many available, of those weather broadcasts which will be the most reliable and useful. An explanation of the various sources of information, as given in the Manual, is presented herewith: "The purpose of this 'Manual' is to provide members with such source information as is currently available to enable them to keep advised on the weather pattern and its probable changes. The coastal area which it attempts to cover is from Long Island Sound to New Brunswick. 'There are three principal sources from which the cruising man can obtain weather information over the air: (I) Commercial broadcasting stations operating in the 'Broadcast Band'; ( 2) Radio Range stations operated at various airports by the Civil Aeronautics Administration operating in the 'Radio Beacon Band'; ( 3) U. S. Coast Guard reports broadcast on short wave. These three sources can be tuned in on most multiple band marine radios or on the following equipment: ( I ) ordinary radios; ( 2) radio direction finders; ( 3) radio telephones. "I. The separate schedules list-by area-those commercial broadcasting stations which report weather information in some detail, and the times of such broadcasts. Current weather information which is so general as to be of little value to the yachtsman has been omitted. Only those stations and times, therefore, at which reasonably complete weather information is obtainable, either directly from U. S. Weather Bureau personnel or by independent meteorologists has been included. "2. The second source of information-the airport range station-is designed for and used by airplane pilots. Since it is not widely known or used by the average seaman, it seems worthwhile to explain in some detail how this information can be obtained and used. All of these range stations operate in the marine 'Beacon Band' on wave lengths between 200 and 400 K.C. Any good RDF should bring them in if you are close enough. They are much lower powered than most broadcast stations so an extra antenna will help. Any long, high antenna will do if you can find a place to attach it. Some have used the vessel's standing rigging for this purpose successfully. 42


"The primary purpose of these broadcasts is not to issue forecasts but simply to report current weather at airport stations within a few hundred miles. This information can be very helpful to the amateur forecaster. Broadcasts are made at fifteen and forty-five minutes past each hour ( unless delayed by traffic-control communications) from the stations listed. \Vhen tuning in you will hear a repeated code letter A or N ( or a steady note if you are literally on the beam) interrupted at fortysecond intervals by the code letters of the station. The operator will also identify the station before every message. 'The observations are given in a regular sequence preceded by the name of the airport spoken twice. Sl-y condition is reported as clear or altitudes of cloud layers given starting with the lowest deck if several are visible. Cloud cover is classified as scattered, broken, or overcast. Visibility is given if less than seven miles and the cause of any restriction, such as fog or smoke. Then follow the temperature and dew point, although the dew point may be omitted if widely separated from the temperature. Wind direction and velocity in knots follow unless the velocity is less than ten knots. If any gusts exceed the average by ten knots the peak gusts are reported. Then the altimeter setting is usually given in inches of mercury. This is closely equivalent to sea-level barometric pressure. Additional remarks are often made as 'breaks in the overcast,' 'fog bank east,' 'towering cumulus west,' or 'radar echo two four zero degrees twenty-five miles'. A radar echo in this instance means-rain shower spotted by radar at the compass direction and distance given. "Coverage is two hundred to four hundred miles in all possible directions at fifteen minutes past each hour and generally more local at forty-five minutes past. Boston, for example, gives reports from the following at fifteen minutes past: Boston, Bangor, Bradley Field ( Hartford), La Guardia, Newark, Burlington, Albany, Syracuse, Boston; and at forty-five minutes: Boston, Portland, Concord, Providence, FalmouthOtis Field, ( Hyannis and Martha's Vineyard occasionally), Westover (Chicopee Falls), Worcester, Bedford, South Weymouth, Nantucket, Boston. The 'home airport' is always first and last in the sequence. Foll~wing the reports a brief forecast for the next two hours only is often given. Winds aloft follow the broadcasts at 0015, 0615, 1215, and 1815. ( All times mentioned from these stations are Standard Time). These are given at specified altitude intervals in compass degrees and lmots. ccAn example of all this would be, 'Boston, Boston, measured ceiling two thousand six hundred feet broken, five thousand five hundred overcast, visibility three, haze and smoke, wind south southwest one five pe.ak gusts two six, altimeter two nine eight nine, ceiling ragged .. !ernunal forecast for period one two hundred to one four hundred ce1hngs two to three thousand, visibility three improving to five by end of period, winds south southwest one five to two zero and gusty. Winds aloft Boston one one three zero observation, surface two zero zero degrees one five knots, one thousand two one zero degrees two two knots, two thousandt etc. etc. "This is Boston radio.» "All this sounds like gibberish the £rst time you listen to it, but like anything else, if you will practice the use of these broadcasts a few 43


times it becomes simple to digest or write down the data as you hear them. On the schedule is a list of some of the nearby Radio Range Stations, operated by the C.A.A., which broadcast airport weather as described above. "3. The third source is the radio telephone. The Coast Guard broadcasts the latest U. S. Weather Bureau report on the local ship-toshore Marine Operator wave length as shown on the schedules. Presumably every one who carries a radio telephone aboard is familiar with this schedule and these broadcasts. "We assume that all readers of this 'Manual' are interested in doing their own weather guessing, not necessarily in competition with the experts but certainly to interpret the expert's forecasts locally and to recognize departures from the forecasts as early as possible. It is to aid in this activity that we have suggested the use of current weather conditions at airport stations and elsewhere.,, Au:xANl>ER STRONG, Chairman ROBERT B. ALMY ALAN C. BEMIS

t]w BJup \\·atl'r ~Ieda] of HJ5i is awarded to the cruising doctor and his schornwr. For thP first IO months of an itinerary that took Landfall II to Tahiti hy way of Panama, GuayaquiL the Galapagos, Pitcairn, the Gambier ArchipPlago. tlw ~larqm.•sas and the Tuamotos, the weather was kindwith on<.' notahll' <.'X<'Pption. That was in the Gulf of Tehuantepec off the coast of ~l<·xko. \\'lwn• a Tehuantepecer of almost hurricane force endured for 36 hours. Other rough passages in the months that followed indudl'd thl' 1200-mil<.' leg from the Fiji Islands to New Zealand and the suhsequent transit of tlw Tasman Sea, when jib, mainstaysail and mainsail Wl're torn across and the schooner lay to for a long period under forestaysail alonl'. 'Tlwse disturhanc:<.'s ha\'ing been successfully surmounted, the wind withheld its fury until Lane/fall 11 lay at anchor in Brisbane, Australia, in pn•st1ml'd safl'ty. There a hurricane occurred and the little ship found 1wrsl'lf \\'edged in among cattk>, tr<:.'<.'S and floating houses, one or another of which in thl' flood that followed the blow carried awav two-thirds of her rndd<.·1-, ll'a\'ing just <.'nough to foil detection and to iJermit steering uncll'r normal conditions. Th<.• journey through the Barrier Hee£ to Thursda,· Island and on to the island of Bali was uneventful until the crucial m<;nwnt of Pnt<.•ring the coral-studdt•d harbor of Benoa. Then in a strong foul tidt• tlw schooner rd't1sed to pass through stays and was swept on to a rt•t•f. 1ligh and lit·~· for one tide she was, with the assistance of the harbor master, rdloakd on the next and eventually with great difficulty was pmn•red into Surabaya where the rudder and a badly sprung seam wen• made right. Singapore, Penang and Colombo-unremarkable except that calms suhstitutt•d for the prevailing leading breezes and were in turn interrupted hy squalls which seemed always to come from dead ahead-with the result that it took 21 days to make the 1200 miles from Penang across the Bav of Bengal to Cedon. On the next leg, from Colombo toward Aden, dis.aster in tlw guise· of a swordfish really came to close quarters. The formidahk• fish ramnwd its adversary below the engine bed and holed a plank that was inaccessible from inside the hull. The state of the sea was such that outboard n•pairs would have been dangerous as well as unsatisfac:torv, and for four davs, t1!1til harbor was made at Cochin on the western si10re of India, the' pump was manned one hour out of four. Ht•pairs were effected in Cochin by Indian boatbuilders, but at such cost that Dr. Holcomb advises other cruising yachtsmen to leave India strictly to the Indians. For an unhoped-for contrast, the trip up the Red Sea in the month of December, 1955, was comfortable to the point of coolness, while visits in Port Said and Suez before Nasser took over operation of the Canal were delightful. Again for contrast, the weather off the coast of Asia ~J inor and in the Aegean Islands was abominable and it was not until the spring of 1956 in the central and western part of the Med that the climate behaved itself. Landfall II sailed without incident from Gib to England, remained

'The <f3ermuda Races Historical Note by Herbert L. Stone HEN THE IDEA presented itself in 1923, of reviving ocean racing and particularly the race to Bermuda which had not been sailed for some fourteen years, there was no organization ready to handle the matter so YACIITING got a group of prominent yachtsmen including Charles D. Mower, John Alden, Allen Weeks of New Bedford, Sam Wetherill and the writer to form a committee to make the rules, run the race and provide the prizes without the help of any yacht club. The Royal Bermuda Yacht Club agreed to handle the finish and these two committees worked together very well. The race was such a success that the next year there was demand for its repetition, and this time the same committee handled the conditions and the New Rochelle Yacht Club agreed to start the boats from New London and its race committee took over that function. Before the next race in 1926, the then newly organized Cruising Club of America became interested in the ocean-going boats, and the backers of the first two races asked the club to take over and sponsor the event. This the club agreed to do and ever since then it has handled the entire race in conjunction with the Royal Bermuda Yacht Club. The Cruising Club took the initiative in developing the various measurement rules which have come into being and, in addition to handling the Bermuda Race, also promoted two trans-Atlantic races, one from Newport to Plymouth in 1931, and one from Newport to Norway in 1935. It is the club's interest, backing and intelligent handling that has made these long distance races so popular in the United States.

Three Cruising <;iuides ( The following publications have been prepared and published by members as non-profit ventures and are convenience sources of cruising information which have been issued for the benefit of Cruising Club members and other interested yachtsmen).

T

HE ''Cruising Guide to the Nova Scotia Coast" is sponsored by the

Boston Station and the Royal Nova Scotia Yacht Squadron. It is a loose-leaf edition, with the individual harbor descriptions and articles credited to those who contributed the material. Since its inception in 1952, the editor's practice has been to send out gratis to holders of the book additional and substitute pages containing corrections and additional material. This has been and will be done in April of each year. In 1952 there were 32 harbor descriptions. Now there are 88. Most of the 36 description writers are members of the C.C.A. or R.N.S.Y.S. Copies may be obtained from the editor, Charles W. Bartlett, 294 Washington St., Boston, Mass. The price is $8.75.

The cruising guide entitled ''Cruising Directions-NewfoundlandWith Some Material On The Labrador" is sponsored by the Boston Station. It also is a loose-leaf edition, with individual harbor descriptions and articles credited to those who contributed the material. Furthermore the editor"s practice in sending out additional and substitute pages' annually is the same as with the Nova Scotia Guide. Inasmuch as the Newfoundland coast is much less frequently cruised than that of Nova Scotia, the harbor coverage is far less complete. Starting with a modest 18 harbor descriptions in 1955, however, there are now 60, almost all contributed by Club members. Copies may be obtained from the editor, Charles W. Bartlett, 294 Washington St., Boston, Mass. The price is $8.75. Supplementing the "Cruising Guide to the Nova Scotia Coast" ( or vice versa) is G. Peabody Gardner's "E 1/2 S." It is published by and may be obtained from the Peabody Museum, Salem, Mass. The price is $2.00.

:Flag etiquette GENERAL N working up the following section on Hag etiquette, for the purpose of simplicity some of the finer points have been omitted. However, for those who are interested, it might be pointed out that, with the exception of the custom of displaying the Club Hag both day and night, in general Cmising Club flag etiquette follows that generally adopted by American yacht clubs.

I

WHEN FLOWN A yacht in commission and manned shall, except as otherwise noted, fly its flags from 8 a.m. to sunset when anchored or moored. When undenvay in inland waters, Hags shall be flown whenever there is light enough for them to be identified. When on the high seas, Hags s~~ be flown when meeting or passing another vessel, assuming there 1s light enough for them to be identified. UNITED STATES YACHT ENSIGN Shall be displayed at the stem if at anchor, moored, or under power alone. When sails are hoisted, if the ensign is displayed it must be Bown from the upper leach, or peak of gaff, of the aftermost sail. CLUB BURGEE When a yacht is owned by, or under charter to, or in charge ~fa Cruising Club member, the Cruising Club burgee shall be displaye as follows: At the bow of power boats, at the foremast head of schooners, and at the mainmast head of all other rigs. The Club burgee may be displayed day and night. PRIVATE SIGNAL Shall be displayed at the mainmast head of power boats aod schoon· ers, and mizzenmast head of yawls and ketches. FLAG OFFICERS, POST, AND FLEET CAPTAINS FLAGS h • te signal, exS all be displayed day and night in place of the priva ll ower cept on single-masted sailing yachts and auxiliaries, and on sma p ·bed boats, when it shall be displayed in place of and in the manner prescn for the Club burgee. h" m 1 ·aI business ' in is Wh en a flag officer uses a member's yacht for ODJC flag should replace the burgee for such period of time as he may rema aboard. 161


FOREIGN NATIONAL ENSIGN When in foreign waters, the national ensign of the country in whose waters a yacht is located shall be displayed b etween 8 a.m. and sunset as follows: Power boats at the bow staff, schooners at the starboard fore spreader, and all other rigs at the starboard main spreader.

TRANS-OCEANIC PENNANT Yachts which have been awarded the Trans-Oceanic Pennant may fly it at club rendezvous and on other appropriate occasions, at the starboard main spreader, except schooners, when it shall be flown from the starboard fore spreader.

The Club c_surgee VIEW of the fact that different flag makers have manufactured Cruising Club burgees that varied considerably in details, the Board of Governors at the March, 1956 meeting, adopted the following specific description of the burgee, to replace the former first paragraph of Item 15 of the Constitution. It is suggested that when purchasing a new burgee you check it against this description:

:Flag c:Signals (Code F'lags Are Reproduced On Inside Back Cover) HE SIGXALS here given are divided in two sections, the first one of which includes urgent signals from the International Code in accordance with H.O. No. 87. The second section includes various special Cruising Club signals. These are not in compliance with the International Code ( H.O. No. 87) and in order to a void possible confusion when using the special Club signals, the Cruising Club burgee should be hoisted over the code flags. All ships to which signals are addressed should hoist the answering pennant as soon as signals are understood. The answering pennant should remain hoisted until the original signal has been hauled down. When additional signals are needed, they will be authorized by general orders and should be entered in club books.

A

SIMPLIFIED SYSTEM of coastal warning displays was put into effect

on January, 1958. For many years, whenever winds dangerous to navigation have been forecast by the Weather Bureau, storm warning signals have b een displayed along the coast of the United States, the Great Lakes, the Hawaiian Islands, and Puerto Rico. Under the new system, only four separate flag signals are used during the day, instead of the seven separate flag signals formerly employed in the Weather Bureau's Storm Warning Display System. During

~


the night only four comparable lantern signals will be used for Small Craft, Gale, Whole Gale, and Hurricane warnings. The major differences between the old and the new visual warning display systems are: ( 1) The substitution of a single non-directional "gale warning'' signal for the four separate directional "storm warning" signals that were used to specify northeast, southeast, southwest, or northwest gales. (2) The introduction of a new lantern signal for use during the night for "small craft warnings." Under the old system displays for small craft warnings were used in the daytime only. ( 3) The introduction of a new and separate signal for ''whole gale'' warnings. Under the old system the same signal was used for both "whole gales" and "hurricanes." The \\leather Bureau states that these visual storm warning signals displayed along the coasts are supplementary to, and not a replacement for, the written advisories and warnings given prompt and wide distribution by press, radio, and television. In most cases, important details of the Weather Bureau's forecasts and warnings in regard to the time, intensity, duration, and direction of storms, can not be given satisfactorily through visual signals alone. The new system of coastal warning display signals was adopted after months of preparatory work and consultations with marine groups, yacht clubs, shipping agencies, and other coastal interests especially concerned in providing for the maximum protection of life and property from storms. The explanation of the new display signals is as follows: Small C ra~ Warning: One red pennant displayed by day and a red light above a white light at night to indicate winds up to 38 miles an hour ( 33 knots ) and/ or sea conditions dangerous to small craft operations are forecast for the area. Gale Warning: Two red pennants displayed by day and a white light above a red light at night to indicate winds ranging from 39 to 54 miles an hour ( 34-48 knots) are forecast for the area. Whole Gale Warning: A single square red flag with a black center displayed during daytime and two red lights at night to indicate winds ranging from 55 to 73 miles an hour ( 48 to 63 knots) are forecast for the area. Hurricane Warning: Two square red flags with black centers displayed by day and a white light between two red lights at night to indicate that winds 74 miles an hour ( 64 lmots) and above are forecast for the area.
