OCEAN PRESERVATION TAKES SHAPE S INCE 2006, MORE than 100 NOAA projects have removed in excess of 12 million
pounds of marine debris from our oceans, most of it plastic that takes decades or even centuries to fully decompose. It’s a problem that isn’t going away anytime soon — the Great Pacific Garbage Patch is already estimated to cover more than 1.5 million square miles — even if we managed to never pollute the ocean with another piece of garbage. How many of you have had a plastic bag or fishing line wrap around your boat’s prop? Have you ever had to swerve to avoid a fishing net or floating trap? How many times have you seen a soda bottle or a beer can floating on the waves? Did you know it can take the can 200 years to decompose, and the plastic bottle could still be around in 400 years? While most of the trash that ends up in the ocean comes from land-based sources, washing into the sea through storm drains and ending up in the Garbage Patch or on a beach somewhere, boaters have a role to play in keeping the waters clear of debris. Heck, no matter how small a part recreational boaters play in the proliferation of marine debris, they have an obligation to do their part, because the water is their playground. No detail is too inconsequential. Even cigarette remnants contribute to marine debris and can end up in the belly of fish and birds, so flicking that butt overboard isn’t as harmless as you’d like to think. On a separate but conservation-related note, for West Coast anglers who enjoy the frequent or occasional trip to Mexican waters, Mexico’s expansion of its marine reserve area shouldn’t affect recreational fishing. According to Fish Rap, even though the expansion of the marine reserve announced by Mexico’s president,
4
Enrique Peña Nieto, includes the waters around the Coronado Islands, “The marine reserve, or biosphere, would still allow for human activities, such as fishing, to occur.” The details of how the biosphere will be protected and how the protection will be enforced are still being worked out (and will likely be aimed more toward commercial, not sportfishing, interests). I’m sure the folks at Fish Rap (fishrap.com) will stay on top of it, as will the fishing fleet in San Diego. Mexico’s National Commission of Natural Protected Areas (conanp.gob. mx/english.php) will be responsible for managing the area.

LEAD BOAT AZIMUT VERVE 40
YOU GOT A LOTTA VERVE Azimut unveils an outboard-powered weekender.
I
n creating its latest boat model, Azimut Yachts borrowed some features from boats much larger than the new Verve 40 and from boats smaller than the near-43foot Verve. From the smaller end of things, Azimut elected to go with outboard power for the walk-around weekender. Triple Mercury Verado 350s, to be precise. That’s 1,050 hp that deliver a top speed of 44 knots. From the
bigger end of things, Azimut turned the bow into a social space, the kind you might see on a yacht twice its size, with a large sunpad and bench settees that face each other. At the rear of the vessel, against the aft transom and the starboard side, is an L-shaped settee with a dining table. A rear-facing bench settee is just forward, set against the back of the helm seating console, but it can join the
L-settee, since it is mounted on tracks that let it slide aft. Part of this area is exposed to the sun, but an electrically operated SureShade extends to cover everyone, if so desired. Two built-in in consoles house a grill, a wet bar, an optional wine cooler, a refrigerator and in ice-maker. Three captain’s chairs front an automotive-inspired helm that includes twin Raymarine HybridTouch MFDs, thruster

Benny the Bunny AMANDA DENTON HAS LIVED ABOARD her
boat, Selah, a Catalina 34 sailboat, for seven years at Shelter Island in San Diego. Benny joined her five years ago. They are day sailors, taking the boat out in San Diego Bay at least once a month. They also enjoy bike riding and paddleboarding together, according to The Log. Benny even has his own little life jacket. Benny is a rabbit. He was a stray dwarf bunny with no front teeth living on the streets before he was rescued from a shelter by Denton. He’s now a “free roamer” that is potty trained and uses a little litter box. Benny’s maritime adventures can be seen on Instagram (@captainbennybun). GUESS THE LOCATION controls, engine throttles and a Mercury joystick (if added as an option). The hardtop has a skylight that opens for ventilation, and the sides are open, so the helm is protected but “outdoors.” Below are the salon, the galley, the head and the only cabin, which is in the bow. Its aft half has standup headroom, while the forward half doesn’t due to the
deck being lowered to accommodate the bow seating area. The salon settee converts to a berth for two. While this is among Azimut’s smallest yachts, it retains the Azimut design flair and takes advantage of the builder’s design and construction processes that have been improved again and again.

FAST FACT
According to Men’s Journal, the surf break at Mavericks Beach on the northwest tip of Half Moon Bay in California is the product of a geological anomaly, a vast cleft in the underwater continental shelf that lets open-ocean swells reach the coast without losing any size or power before being pushed upward and creating gigantic waves. Pillar Point Harbor provides the closest boat accommodations. 8

THE BEAUTY OF A CARVER YACHT IS MORE THAN SKIN DEEP. A lot of boats at the dock are all glitz and glamour. But how well do they perform when the going gets rough? All that pizazz is small comfort when you’re bouncing off the wave tops or wallowing in the troughs. At Carver, we’ve been building boats for more than 60 years that can handle the roughest water on the planet—the Great Lakes. Unlike salt water, fresh water is hard. Rock hard. And those waves can be steep and breaking. That means you take it on the chin, one wave after another in rapid succession. So we support our hulls with an extraordinary stringer system that reinforces the bow as much as the hull bottom. It’s not glamorous, but you’ll be glad of it the first time it’s blowing hard out at sea. No wonder Carver Yachts is taking the marine industry by storm. Sea trial one at your Carver Yachts dealer soon.
Stringers extend up the bow to prevent “oil canning” and reduce vibration in the hull when running into head seas.
The entire interior of the hull is coated with a white epoxy paint for easier maintenance and service.
Molded stringers are created using multiple layers of fiberglassengineered fabric for lighter weight, superior strength and resistance to water damage. Extra reinforcement in key areas provides rigid structural support for engines and generators.

A
WOMAN AT THE first informational
meeting about the 2017 CUBAR powerboat rally to La Paz last month told me she and her husband dream about cruising the Sea of Cortez, but she didn’t think they could get away from their consulting business for more than three weeks at a time. I told her to consider what’s become known as “commuter cruising,” an increasingly popular lifestyle that allows boaters to cruise to dream destinations, just on a part-time basis. The trick is that boaters can cruise for two or three weeks at a time, or maybe a month, then they fly back and resume their stateside lifestyle, which may require working, and fly back to the boat weeks later and cruise slowly to their next place in paradise. Many boaters aren’t truly ready, financially or emotionally, to unplug completely from their daily lives — although they may threaten to. Most of them have responsibilities, jobs and family they aren’t ready to 14

abandon. Many of them probably read the rigorous adventures of Sterling Heyden or Josh Slocum, but they’re not ready to leap into that abyss. However, they might be able to slip away to the boat in Mexico on a part-time basis.
WHO’S DOING IT? Retired people make up about 50 percent of the commuter cruisers I’ve met in Mexico. Most are couples who are both 100 percent retired, called jubilados in Spanish. Their itinerary voluntarily pivots
around the grandchildren’s graduations or weddings back home. But some commuter-cruising couples are only half retired; for example, one partner still works part time, necessitating an occasional trip back to the U.S. Once retirees crack open their nest egg, they can spread their funds a lot further by living aboard in Mexico, where food prices and medical expenses are a lot lower than in the U.S. La Paz and Mazatlan have the two largest communities in Mexico of U.S. and Canadian retirees living full or part time aboard their own boat. Unlike in the U.S., marinas in Mexico don’t set liveaboard limits; in fact, they expect guests to live aboard as long as they wish, up to 10 years. That’s thanks to the Temporary Import Permit. (More on the T.I.P. to follow.) Cruisers have created shoreside clubs to serve their needs: daily VHF nets, weekly potlucks and social activities, and classes in yoga, Spanish, navigation, Skype, outboard motor repair and more. Cruisers may also teach classes to the locals, such as English as a second language. The rest of the commuter cruisers are

still gainfully employed — to pay a mortgage, fund IRAs, cover kids’ tuition — at least on a part-time basis. They may own a business they can temporarily leave in the hands of trusted partners, employees or family members. (Three weeks seems to be the magic number, and that’s long enough to join the CUBAR cruise to La Paz.) Several commuter cruisers carry their whole business in their laptop. They keep grinding out a few dollars while they cruise the Sea of Cortez — thanks to the Internet, Skype, cellphones, satellite phones and HF email.
HIGH-TECH COMS Reliable onboard communications are required for scheduling a commute. Right from the galley, commuters can reserve a slip in a marina that’s about three weeks away, then book roundtrip travel from the nearby bus depot or airport. With HF email, they can constantly work with their team or coworkers. They might be anchored in a remote cove when they need to consult with a client. They might decide to change their own flight or that of friends coming to visit in Mexico.

radios in the oven or microwave, to shield them from lightning. Shade all windows, but leave some ventilation belowdecks. Commuters should give the marina dockmaster written instructions for taking care of the boat in their absence, plus any contact numbers. And get the dockmaster’s phone numbers and email addresses. Owners with bigger boats may need to hire a “port skipper” to check bilges, batteries and shore power daily. Some of them might even pick the owners up at the

airport on their return — with a cooler full of fresh foods.
PAPERWORK Here’s where the copier earns its keep. The marina staff keeps on file a copy of every owner’s Proof of Liability Insurance card, the original of which should have been provided by the insurance provider. They’ll also need a copy of the T.I.P., which is valid for 10 years. Keep the original T.I.P. aboard
the boat, give a copy to the marina, and take a copy home. If you need to import boat parts, the T.I.P. frees you from paying duty fees. If you added a new dinghy, motor or electronics, make an Addendum List with the equipment’s serial number and staple it to your T.I.P. Make copies. If your T.I.P. is going to expire before you get back, take it (and any Addendum List) to the nearest Customs office and get a brand new T.I.P. that’s good for another 10 years. If you are leaving Mexico, you’re supposed to hand in your current 180-day Tourist Form (FMM) even though it may still be in date. Don’t worry, the FMM will be replaced with a new one, good for another 180-day period, upon your reentry into Mexico. Specify that you’re a tourist, not someone applying for residence in Mexico. For more info, visit inm.gob.mx/ fmme/publico/solicitud.html.
HIRED SKIPPER If the registered owners are leaving someone else in charge of moving their boat out of the marina, even a family member, that person needs a notarized Skipper’s Letter from the owners. This last bit of paperwork is only important for folks who expect their boat to be waiting for them in their next commuter-cruising destination. SEAMAGAZINE.COM FEBRUARY 2017

N AT I V E C U LT U R E 1 / RETURN OF TRADITION
August 25 marked the 100th anniversary of the National Park Service. In addition, it commemorated years of work to plan and build a traditional Tribal House in Glacier Bay National Park for the Tlingit people who have called the bay home for thousands of years. Ice literally pushed the Huna Tlingit off their land during the Little Ice Age in the 1750s, and establishing the National Park later limited the Hunas access to their ancestral lands. The Tribal House project marks a new partnership with the Park Service, provides a place for visitors to learn about native culture and gives the Huna clans a place for ceremonies and gatherings. These three canoes led by clan elders arrived on the shores of Glacier Bay to symbolize the Huna Tlingit’s return to their land in traditional carved log canoes, wearing their elaborate tribe, clan and house regalia. I stood in the water to get this shot of the significant moment of arrival. 2 / D E AT H O F A T O T E M
We find examples of native culture from the Tlingit, Haida and Tsimshian people all over southeast Alaska, but I particularly like the collection at the Totem Bight State Historical Park in Ketchikan. Totems can tell a story, commemorate an event or honor someone who has died. Despite the tremendous amount of work that goes into creating one of these massive sculptures in wood, when the totem gets old and begins to decay, the native people simply take it down and leave it in the forest to rot, replacing it with a new totem that may take six months or more to carve. The totems in this photo have recently been retired, and the expression on the faces of the man and the wolf with their folded hands struck me as too much like death — the sad death of these poles. 2

FROZEN LANDSCAPE

2 1 / ICEBERG, HO
Early in the season, the glaciers in Tracy Arm were calving a tremendous amount of ice, sending large icebergs drifting down the fjord. We felt safe anchored in a cove near the mouth of the fjord because the bigger icebergs run aground before they can drift into the anchorage. One particular night the combination of an extra-high tide and strong winds helped some hefty chunks of ice bump slowly into the
anchorage. We kept a sharp lookout and eventually fired up the engines to move our boat out of the way of a big berg. Once the ice drifted past and the tide fell, we could finally get some sleep. It was difficult to judge the size of the iceberg during the night, but in the light of day with some people from a neighboring boat standing in front of it, we could see that it was quite a beastie.
3 2 / SHOOTING THE SHOOTER
The Le Conte glacier is 4,400 feet thick in some places, slowly oozing down the Coastal Mountains into the sea. The glacier’s face stands 200 feet above water and 800 feet below it. Most people know that when ice falls from the face of the glacier it’s known as calving, and it’s fantastic to see a huge chunk of ice crash into the water. Because the Le Conte is so deep, ice can break off the face

below the water, rising out of the water in slow motion in an event known as a “shooter.” I’ve been hoping to see one for several years, and just a few minutes after wishing I could see one, this massive block of ice rose out of the water in slow motion, dwarfing the 30-foot boat in the foreground. A still photo doesn’t do justice to the thrill of this magnificent ice event.
3 / GLACIER GRIT
Reid Glacier in Glacier Bay National Park is a favorite to visit because we can anchor in the cove formed by the glacier when it was at its largest, back in 1899. It’s wonderful to wake up in the morning and feel like we have this glacier all to ourselves, studying it through binoculars and paddling close to its face, which is three-quarters of a mile wide and 150
feet tall. We like to take the dinghy ashore and hike up to the north edge of the glacier where we can climb up on it and see the rocks it carries from the mountains down to the sea. The dark area to the right is ice laden with grit that the glacier scraped from the mountains as it passed by, and you can see the muddy rushing melt water on the far right running out into the bay.

WILDLIFE
1 1 / GRIN & BEAR IT
In August we anchored in Didrickson Harbor on the west side of Chichagof Island, with a great view of a salmon stream and an array of brown bears coming and going. Shortly after the anchor was set, I headed out in the kayak to watch the action. Bears have a pecking order, and the two sows baring their teeth was an example of a sow challenging the dominance of another. The sound of those bears growling at each other made my shutter finger shake! Neither actually bit the other, and the challenger eventually gave up, snarling at her cubs as she stomped into the forest. The bear in the other photo is my most favorite, sitting on that rock for a long time just watching the world go by. I love the look it was giving me when I took the photo, and I’m fascinated by bears’ expressive faces.

When the Japanese invaded the western Aleutian Islands in 1942, the U.S. government evacuated many Aleuts to protect people and resources from the invaders. Islanders were hastily herded aboard transport ships and relocated to various camps in southeast Alaska. Five hundred men, women and children from the Pribilof Islands were brought to Funter Bay and left ashore with little or no resources except some abandoned cannery and mining buildings, none of which had heat or fresh water. Between 1942 and 1944 about 10 percent of the displaced islanders died, and between 23 and 35 of them are buried in a cemetery in the forest here, still visited and tended to by their Aleutian relatives. The Russian Orthodox crosses on the graves respect the dominant religion of the Aleuts, and lambs on some headstones marked the graves of children in this peaceful but sad memorial grove in the woods. 2 / H O N O R I N G H E R I TA G E
3 2 / OGLING THE ORCAS
I get out in the kayak with my cameras as often as possible, and on this day I was paddling near Reid Glacier in Glacier Bay National Park, photographing birds after a long hike to the glacier. A small pod of orcas came into the cove, diving and surfacing a good distance away. I wondered whether I should be concerned if they came toward me, but didn’t want to give up a good photo opportunity, so I moved a little closer and kept shooting. After about 20 minutes, the orcas disappeared for a few minutes, surfacing only 30 feet from me and startling me with their splashing and staccato exhales. These photos were the best of a few shots that I grabbed with shaking hands and a pounding heart. After their short visit, they dove again and swam away into the bay.
The town of Petersburg on Mitkof Island was founded by Norwegians in the late 19th century and has retained a strong Norwegian culture ever since, earning it the nickname “Alaska’s Little Norway.” Since 1958 Petersburg has hosted the Little Norway Festival in mid-May, with people in Norwegian folk costumes as well as Vikings and Valkyries running around town. Notable visitors to this year’s Festival included Norway’s Ambassador to the U.S., Alaska’s governor and an internationally known harpist from Mexico. The parade is the highlight of the annual festival and the Viking ship is the star of the parade. This year the Vikings invited the governor to join them, along with plenty of Valkyries and children. This photo is special because Petersburg is my home, and living here has helped me get in touch with my own Norwegian heritage. 1
3 / MOTHER & CHILD
We occasionally see seals swimming in the harbor behind our boat or investigating us in an anchorage, but the best way to see seals is around glacier ice, a favorite place to haul out and rest. Females give birth to a single pup once a year on the ice and the pup only stays with the mother for four to six weeks. Seals are very curious, but also very wary, so they can be difficult to photograph. In Alaska seals are a Species of Special Concern, since their numbers are declining, so it’s important that we give them space and don’t disturb them from their resting spots, especially pups. I spotted this pair as we were leaving the Le Conte glacier, and I particularly liked this mother since, once she decided we weren’t a threat, she patted her little pup in a comforting gesture.

1 / TINY DANCERS
Celebration is an event held every two years during which the three native tribes in southeast Alaska (Tlingit, Haida and Tsimshian) gather to celebrate their culture through dancing, language and art. It’s like attending a gigantic family reunion with elaborate customs and costumes, and it’s wonderful to see the resurgence of native culture. We were very impressed by the deep respect shown to the elders, as well as the involvement of youth and children in every activity, particularly the dancing. These two little gals (near left) were my favorites on the dance floor, dressed in their regalia with symbols of their tribe, clan and house. Although both were just learning the dances, I loved that the older girl was gently helping the smaller one with proper hand position. The entire event was moving and beautiful, and we were grateful to learn more about the culture. 2
2 / C A N O E C R E AT I O N
At the Sitka National Historical Park is a carving shed where some Tlingit men were making a log canoe. A canoe starts with a Sitka spruce log, and the entire 40-foot canoe is hollowed out by hand using adzes, a process that takes four to six months to complete. After months of carving, this log developed some cracks, and the carver showed us how he was making plugs to repair the bad spots. Notice that the canoe seems a bit too narrow to be very comfortable or seaworthy. The final step in building a canoe is to carry it down to the water’s edge and fill it with sea water. Large rocks are heated in a blazing fire and placed into the water-filled canoe, heating the water into steam. At the same time, the two sides are wedged apart, gradually steaming the log canoe into a wider shape and causing the ends to rise. 3 / GET YER BOOGIE ON

We read about a great hike from the anchorage in Kalinin Bay (25 miles north of Sitka) that goes over the ridge of Kruzof Island to Sea Lion Cove, a beautiful sand beach on the Gulf of Alaska. The hike starts along the estuary next to a salmon stream, and then takes off on a steep climb to a mountain lake, then down to the ocean. There were fresh brownbear tracks in the mud on the trail going in the same direction we were, and though we never saw the bear our throats were sore from calling “Hey, bear!” on the long hike. The beach is popular with surfers, and we ran into two guys making the difficult climb with their surfboards. Jim found this abandoned boogie board on the beach, but I couldn’t convince him to check out the waves. Maybe next time.

fastener selection // grid’s rant
THE NUTS AND BOLTS SELECT THE CORRECT FASTENER FOR THE JOB. BY DEANE HISLOP
T
HE HUMBLE SCREW AND BOLT, COLLECTIVELY known as threaded fasteners, hold everything together on a boat, from crankshaft bearings to the VHF antenna mount. These connectors are an integral part of all seagoing craft and can’t be substituted for.
The type of thread on a particular fastener can be separated into two groups: parallelthreaded machine and self-tapping. The former is used in a nut-and-bolt combination and with such threaded hardware as engine blocks and transmission. Self-tapping fasteners
typically have a tapered thread that, up to a point, is capable of making its own mating threads as it’s screwed into such soft substrates as wood or aluminum. When it comes to the selection and use of fasteners, among the most important concepts that the user must grasp — and it’s the one that’s most often misunderstood — is torque. In simplified terms, torque represents how tightly parts are joined together with the fastener. In the case of an alternator bracket, for instance, the fastener, typically a hex-head machine

12/30/16 2:46 PM
screw, joins the bracket to the engine block with enough force that the two can’t move independently. If they’re able to move even a tiny bit, the fastener may hold them together for a while, but it will soon back out completely. Therefore, the primary mission of nearly all fasteners, rather than simply ensuring that components remain attached to each other, is to minimize movement between them. To ensure that fasteners are properly torqued, especially for such critical fasteners as engine and drive-train components, nothing short of a torque wrench will do. A seemingly endless variety of fastener heads, together requiring an equally endless variety of screwdrivers and wrenches, are employed aboard the average boat. The most common remains the hex-head cap screw or bolt. These are best driven using socket, box, open-end and adjustable wrenches, in that order. Force placed simultaneously on all six sides, or flats, of a hex head offers the least likelihood of slippage or cam out, which is commonly called stripping, although this term should be reserved for damage to or failure of the threads. Boaters may encounter several other heads and drive types, including socketrecess (aka Allen), Frearson, square, square-recess (aka Robertson), Torx, and
Select your fastener wisely, based on its intended use and the anticipated loads. Security Torx drives, to name just a few. If you intend to work on the gear aboard your vessel, you must have the tools to install and remove these fasteners. Few situations are more frustrating in the world of things mechanical than not being able to disassemble a component because you don’t have the proper tool. Among the most common failures involving machine-thread fasteners is unintended loosening, which is commonly

extreme vibration, consider using a lock washer or a thread-locking compound, such as Loctite 242 or 271. Select your fastener wisely, based on its intended use and the anticipated loads. Be certain that you have the proper tools both to install and to remove it. And whenever possible, use a torque wrench, especially when working on critical components.
the result of a combination of factors that can include improper torque, vibration and failure to use a locking device. To prevent a fastener from becoming loose, particularly critical ones such as those used on engines, and couplings, tighten it with a torque wrench. Also, use a high-quality locking device such as a split or star lock-washer. For critical systems or those subject to

HAPPY(?) NEW YEAR
L
AST YEAR WAS a year of epiphanies for me. I learned a lot (that’s what
epiphanies are supposed to do for you). To wit, and this goes to prove “Pride goeth before…,” or “Man proposes, God disposes.” I’ve been servicing outboards for 59 years and consider myself a font of
knowledge. When a computer dude and I face off for engine diagnoses, I will win. Period. Except in 2016 six engines from the same manufacturer had computers that conspired to combine with mechanical components to give clues that could not (regardless of Sherlock Holmes’ quote) point to a problem-resolution. These six engines cost me thousands of dollars in unreimbursed thought, test time, and “Let’s try this” time, not to mention the patience of the factory guys who are trying to help. Almost every time I got the stars lined up, so to speak, and we would go for a test ride and the engine would run flawlessly. I would
leave, get a mile down the road, and the owner called to say the engine was doing worse than when I got there. I returned to find another whole set of problems, totally unrelated. No, 2016 indicated I’m better suited for sitting under an oak tree with a mint julep in hand, preparing for a nap. Deep in my heart I know I’m a good person. I know I put others before me, at a cost to me both financially and mentally. This takes me out of the “good businessman” realm. A good boat businessman would look at the insanity facing him and never buy a boat. I bought two. The first has sat on the0.125” trailer bleed for years. The second
one I bought because I felt sorry about the way the owners treated it. I bought it cheap, a dear friend and I made it pretty, and I sold it for a princely sum. I looked at my only two expenses — my business plastic and my personal card — and realized I had enough to pay them off: $4,300. I wrote the checks, jumped in my trusty Dodge with 336,000 trouble-free miles on the odometer, zoomed into the post office lot, jumped out, mailed the payments, got back in the truck, put it in D and discovered the only gear the transmission had was first. One embarrassing trip to the shop by roll-back, a week of working out of The Nurse’s car and $4,239.04 later, the Dodge was back on the road with a rebuilt tranny. Forty-two-hundred, thirty-nine bucks and four cents, which I had to split between the two credit cards. Look me in the eye and tell me with a straight face that God wasn’t watching. Convince me this was just circumstantial. Too much coincidence for you, too, isn’t it?

TIARA 53 COUPE
A FAMILY-OWNED BUILDER HITS THE FAMILY CRUISER SWEET SPOT.
S
KIPPING ACROSS THE surface of Lake Michigan at almost 40 mph in a brand new
yacht is a darn fine way to spend a picture perfect Midwest summer day. Fortunately for me, I can do that and claim to be working, because I am. Seriously. Being allowed to drive said yacht makes it an even better experience. Using the in-arm joystick to steer the fast-moving vessel takes it up another notch. Such was the situation at Tiara Yachts last year in Holland, Mich. The builder had invited members of the boating press to attend a pre-dealer meeting unveiling of the brand new Tiara 53 Coupe, and the weather, the lake and the boat all cooperated. The guest of honor sat at the dock upon our arrival. Its flared bow pointed out from its berth, and its shearline curved subtly downward as it moved aft. A wide amidships hull window pointed toward a full-beam master, and windows all around the deckhouse indicated a light and airy interior, especially given the opening sunroof in the curved hardtop.
COME ABOARD The C53 is an evolution of the 50 Coupe, with an extended hull, a revised mechanical array and a redesigned salon that’s sure to be the focal point for social activity aboard the yacht. Also new and improved is the joystick operation, which can be used for high-speed steering instead of just low-speed docking maneuvers. Tiara designers created room for an optional Seakeeper 9 gyro, for rock-and-roll-free boating — unless the captain wants to
crank some through the Fusion multizone stereo system. Access to the yacht is via the 70-inch swim platform, which leads to a set of steps to either side of the transom. The platform can be covered in nonskid or inlaid with teak, and it can be fixed or hydraulic, an option that allows it to be the launch point for a dinghy (or a pretty sweet submersible beach for hot days). At the top of the steps is the cockpit, with includes a bench settee on the transom and a single built-in chair to each side of the sliding doors to the interior. Overhead, the hardtop extends to cover part of the cockpit, and a Makefast Marine powered sunshade is an option to cover the entire area when desired.
INSIDE SCOOP Through twin sliding doors — pull on the starboard door and they both open in opposite directions — is the full galley. Beneath the countertop to starboard are dual Isotherm drawer units. One of the units includes two refrigerator drawers; the other has one refrigerator and one freezer. A wine chiller is forward of them. The port counter includes a sink and a recessed three-burner

accommodating a group. With two standard staterooms and the option for a third, the C53 can be a family weekend cruiser. And that fits with the Tiara image. Its parent company, S2 Yachts, is still family owned and operated after more than 60 years, with the patriarch, Leon Slikkers, still involved.
cooktop, and under it are eight drawers and a microwave. Two overhead cabinets are to either side. Just forward of galley is the salon/helm area. An L-shaped sofa with room for five people is to port, while a loveseat is opposite the sofa, immediately aft of the doublewide captain’s chair. A companion chair at the forward end of the sofa slides forward and back and includes a moveable backrest, so the person sitting there can face forward or aft. A high-low table makes dinner a possibility here, if the cockpit’s alfresco setting isn’t desired. At the helm, where the dash consists of an upper and lower level, the captain has access to the latest from Garmin and Volvo

Penta. Set flush into the upper half of the dash are twin Garmin 7616 multifunction displays that can handle just about anything, given the integrated nature of today’s electronics. To the right of the steering wheel on the lower half of the dash are systems buttons (instead of toggle switches) and engine displays. The engine throttles and trim tab controls are next to the dash on a skinny console that runs between the bulkhead and the captain’s chair, which moves forward and back and up and down. Built into the right arm of the chair are the Garmin GRIB controller, a remote control of sorts for running the MFDs without actually touching them, and the Volvo Penta joystick. Most of the things a driver needs to control are at his fingertips as he sits back in his chair. One still needs to use the engine throttles to control speed outside of the no-wake zone, but steering at speed is simple and instant.
PERFORMANCE It was from the tricked-out captain’s chair that we conducted the sea trial and had a little fun driving the 54-and-a-half-footer like a 26-footer. The boat had full fuel and water, the wind was a whisper and Lake Michigan was rolling with a slow two-foot swell. We reached, for just a second, a top speed of 34.7 knots, which is within a whisker of 40 mph. More realistically, top speed was 33.7 knots at 2550 rpm. At that speed, the twin Volvo

Penta D11 IPS950 diesels were burning a combined 73 gph, for a range of about 310 statute miles. The best cruise speed range was from 28.1 mph (2100 rpm) to 32.1 mph (2250 rpm). Range was 348 and 345 miles, respectively. From 1800 rpm to 2400 rpm, the efficiency varies by a mere three-hundredths of a mpg, from 0.57 mpg (1800 and 2400) to 0.60 mpg (2100). Volvo’s Joystick Plus adds the element of steering at speed, and that made driving the C53 easy and fun. At 32 mph, I used my thumb to push the stick to the right, putting the boat into a hard starboard turn — a nice tight sportboat-like circle — and then engaged my forefinger to push the stick left and take us hard aport. Letting go of the stick brought the boat back to level and straightened out the path automatically. One can turn the stick, too, but the movements are more subtle and less immediate. Our C53 test boat had a Seakeeper 9 gyro aboard, so we had to check out its effect on our ride. We put the beam to the
swell, with some of our own wake and that of a companion boat thrown in, got a feel for the rocking motion and then turned on the gyro. The effect was nearly instantaneous and complete. The rocking motion ceased and the boat stayed level as a sniper’s temperament. Granted, the lake wasn’t throwing up a huge challenge, but I’ve tested other gyro-equipped boats in bigger waves, and the effect was pretty much the same, so I’m certain the C53 will benefit greatly from the gyro technology. Add in the Volvo Dynamic Positioning System, and owners have a boat that will hold its position in the water while remaining level atop it.
BELOWDECKS Stairs between the helm and the upper salon lead to an atrium-like landing below. With the standard plan, a utility closet with a stacked washer and dryer is to port, while the second head is to starboard. The VIP stateroom, which includes two berths in a
V shape that can be combined into a queensize bed, is forward and has direct access to the head. Opening portlights and an overhead hatch deliver light and air to the room, while a hanging locker and drawers provide storage. Amidships is the full-beam master. The queen bed’s head is beneath the starboard hull window, which is several feet across and includes an opening hatch, like its twin on the port side. A settee sits on the port side, unless the owner opts for the full length dresser there, which our test boat had. A 32-inch TV, a Blu-Ray player, four speakers and a remote control for the Fusion stereo provide the entertainment factor. An en suite head includes a fiberglass shower stall with an overhead waterfall showerhead, teak flooring and countertops, a vanity and a VacuFlush toilet. An optional plan turns the utility space into a third stateroom with bunks, and the stacked washer and dryer become a single unit that moves to the master.

JEANNEAU
LEADER 30 FRENCH BUILDER’S DAY-TRIPPING, OVERNIGHTING 30-FOOTER IS A BLAST TO DRIVE.
I
F EYES ARE the windows to a human being’s soul, are hull windows a boat’s eyes to its soul mate — the water? There’s a chance I’m overthinking this (just a chance?), but the hull windows on the Jeanneau Leader 30, a new yacht for 2017, made me wonder. They’re an eye-catching feature of the Leader 30 in that they are darkly tinted and run for at least half of the 30-foot boat’s hull length, making it appear slightly longer than it really is.
The Leader 30 is the only open model and the smallest boat in the Leader line, which includes the 33, 36, 40 and 46, so there is room for upward mobility within the Leader line, especially since younger buyers and first-timers are likely to be drawn to the smaller end of the line. But Jeanneau is part of the Beneteau Group — a stable of brands that includes Glastron, Wellcraft, Scarab, Four Winns, Jeanneau, Beneteau, Prestige and Monte Carlo Yachts — so the upward mobility extends far beyond the Leader models. The folks at the Beneteau Group hope the Leader models are a bridge from outboard boats, which the group offers, to the Prestige Line and from there to the Monte Carlo yachts division, which begins at 63 feet. It’s an all-in-the-family sort of strategy, and one that makes sense, considering yacht buyers and brokers tend to develop a relationship that lasts. Day trips are the Leader 30’s strength, but it has one stateroom and a salon/ dining settee in the bow that converts to a
berth big enough for two adults, so overnighting and weekending are definitely among its talents. And while cruising the harbor or the lake at a leisurely pace while munching on hors d’oeuvres and waving at friends and strangers is appealing, the Leader 30 is up for a little more action than that.
ON THE WATER On test day, Sarasota Bay was a recreational boater’s dream, so we got to run the 30-footer all out. The 300 hp Volvo D4 diesel sterndrive was up to the task. It pushed the boat to a top speed of 35 mph at 3600 rpm. Fuel burn at that pace was 16 gph, for a range of about 150 miles (including a 10 percent reserve). The most efficient cruising speed was at 26 mph, where fuel burn was just 11 gph, for a range of 165 miles. That’s almost 2.4 mpg at cruise. Buyers have engine choices. The Volvo D4 diesel is standard, and it comes in 260 or 300 hp. Folks who prefer a gasoline

Everything on the 30-foot Leader is about versatility, from a lower dinette that converts to a berth to an upper settee that converts to a sunpad aft and a companion seat forward. Designers even found room for a galley.

engine can opt for a MerCruiser 6.2L (350 hp) or a MerCruiser 8.2L (380 hp). One last option, for fans of twin engines, puts two 250 hp MerCruiser 4.5L V-6 power plants in the engine space. All are connected to a sterndrive. Driving the boat was easy and fun, at a compact and stylish helm. Systems switches flank a Raymarine HybridTouch multifunction display. Above that, set back on a smaller panel of the dash console, are analog dials. On the base surface of the console, the driver has access to the throttle, trim tab controls, VHF radio and bow thruster control, all on the right-hand side. An engine display is in the middle, and a cup holder is to the left. The throttle control was smooth, and the leather-covered sport wheel was easy to turn and grip. Evincing a sportboat lean in hard turns, putting the horizon at a 45-degree angle, the Leader 30 was aggressive and solid — able to be a bit of a bad boy but without making the
passengers worry they might be tossed around, or overboard. In fact, during one of our test turns, a member of the Beneteau team stood at the base of the steps to below and chatted on his phone.
SOAK IN THE SUN If one needs confirmation as to the Leader 30’s strengths, look to the bow and stern of the boat. On the bow is a three-section sunpad. The back sections lift at various angles for sunbathers’ resting pleasure, and the forward sections lift slightly, too, at the foot, creating a chaise lounge-like cocoon of comfort. Four cupholders are close at hand. At the other end of the boat, a swim platform worthy of a much larger boat extends the boat’s profile by at least three feet. It’s covered in teak, has a hidden boarding ladder and includes a couple of cupholders. Jeanneau’s designers expect this thing to get used when the boat is at anchor. It’s also the best entryway to the rest of the boat.

SOCIAL SPACE A group of six will have no problem mingling in the cockpit. A C-shaped settee wraps around a table that folds in half for easier access to the seating. Five or six people can sit on the settee, which extends just far enough forward that the captain will feel like part of the group from his bolstered chair at the helm. The settee has a bit of versatility. Half of the forward backrest can swing aft to create a forward-facing chair, a real companion seat to the captain. Also, the aft backrest folds flat to create a sunpad, and the rearmost port backrest angles to past 45 degrees, where it can serve as a headrest for a couple of people to recline on the sunpad. If passengers need a respite from the sun, a cockpit awning is an option. Opposite the settee is a console with a built-in sink that’s covered by a hinged countertop. An optional refrigerator can reside under the sink. It’s a convenient unit for supplying the party with
beverages, while a couple of speakers built into the radar arch supply the tunes.
BELOWDECKS Remember, this is a 30-foot, 3-inch boat, but belowdecks Jeanneau designers managed to find room for more amenities than most boat buyers might expect. From the landing at the bottom of the stairs, which are on the centerline, one will find a wet head to starboard, a small galley to port (a sink, a two-burner stovetop, a microwave, a refrigerator/freezer, and storage above and below), a dinette that converts to a berth in the bow and a stateroom aft, under the cockpit. On a 30-foot boat, versatility is key, and the belowdecks bow section serves triple duty as a lower salon, a dining area and a berth. The U-shaped settee wraps around a high-low table, which can accommodate four for dinner or up to six for drinks or games. For an overnight stay, the kids or a second couple can sleep here. The
table lowers to serve as a base for a filler cushion, and a curtain gives the occupants some privacy. The stateroom is tucked aft, under the cockpit, and while it doesn’t have standup headroom, it does have a berth that is as long as a queen but not quite as wide, a hanging closet and a bench settee. The hull windows I mentioned earlier extend into the room, so light pours in, and opening portholes to either side provide fresh air. Thirty feet may not seem like a ton of space to put into use, but the designers at Jeanneau managed to fit everything a couple or a group of six or eight people would need for a day on the water. Given a high level of familiarity, two couples could even spend a weekend enjoying the waterfront, either puttering along for the sake of friendly conversation and a lack of places to be, or scooting along at 35 mph to make it in time for a reservation at a hotspot across the bay.

A
RIVIERA 575 SUV
A NEW CROSSOVER IS THE RESULT OF GENETIC ENGINEERING.
USTRALIAN BUILDER RIVIERA keeps expanding its lineup of hardy sport and cruising yachts, and its crossover line has a new flagship in the 575 SUV. Intended to take Riviera’s fishing DNA and combine it with a sportier look while infusing cruisability, the SUV line has multilevel capabilities in a single-level yacht. The cockpit is a two-zone area that has a large, unobstructed fishing spot and a mezzanine forward with an L-shaped settee, a table and a console with a grill and a refrigerator/ice-maker for entertaining. A three-person settee is built into the transom, to be as unobtrusive as possible during fishing activities, but it can be replaced by a livewell, if the fish bin to port isn’t enough, or the barbecue console from the mezzanine. A sliding door and a window that swings up give the yacht an indoor/outdoor feel, with everyone from the mezzanine to the helm able to converse, despite the two steps up to the main cabin. A galley is immediately inside the cabin, and a salon with settees opposite each other is forward. The portside helm includes twin captain’s chairs and a dash with room for three 19-inch displays and all the bells and whistles. A dozen or more people can sit comfortably for social hour. Below, three staterooms, including a full-beam master, can sleep six people. The master has an en suite head, while the VIP has direct access to the second head, which is also the day head. For power, buyers can choose Volvo Penta IPS — D11 IPS950 or D13 IPS1200 — or shaft drives — Volvo Penta D13, 900 hp, or Caterpillar C12.9, 1,000 hp. All come in twin configurations. With the CATs, the 575 SUV reached a top speed of 30.3 knots, and optimal cruise was 25.5 knots.

As nearly every boating enthusiast will tell you, navigating the marine insurance seas are challenging, to say the least. However, in an effort to de-complicate boat insurance and steer you toward a calmer, better destination, we quizzed some industry leaders about the most important aspects insurance shoppers should look at when deciding on a policy. Our group of insurance company executives included: Scott Croft, vice president public affairs, BoatU.S.; John Wenz, recreational marine manager, Chubb; Cary R. Wiener, president, Pantaenius America Ltd., and Rick Stern, boat product manager, Progressive Insurance. Their responses provide practical tools designed to help buyers steer an easy course that affords smooth seas for everyone’s boat insurance concerns.
5 Must-Know Terms
The language of insurance can be intimidating, and while we can’t cover every important term in one story, here are five of the most important terms to know, and why.
1. Agreed Fixed Value. Agreed value is a pre-agreed upon value that you will receive in case of a total or constructive total loss. This contrasts with a market value policy, in which you would receive the current market value of the yacht at the time of the loss. It is always preferable to have an Agreed Fixed Value policy. 2. Absolute Implied Warranty of Seaworthiness. This
warranty applies at the beginning of the insurance policy, and while it is often called “drastic” by courts, these same courts have nonetheless recognized it as part of the law that governs marine insurance policies. Under the Absolute Implied Warranty of Seaworthiness, if your yacht is in port when your marine insurance goes into effect, and it can be demonstrated by the insurer that the yacht was not seaworthy at that time, your policy is deemed null and void from its inception. In other words, if your yacht suffers damage and you file a claim, you may discover that you have no coverage whatsoever, if the yacht is deemed unseaworthy. Under this hidden warranty, it’s irrelevant whether you, the insured, were aware of the unseaworthy condition or whether the unseaworthy condition in any way caused the loss that gave rise to the claim.
SHOPPERS STEER AN EASY COURSE.
3. Latent Defect. This is a defect in
material and workmanship of an item that may cause failure or malfunction, but is not discoverable to general inspection.
4. New for Old Vs. Depreciation for Partial Losses. A yacht insurance policy has two different ways to pay in the event of a partial loss. One way is to replace or repair without deduction for the age of the part, thus not deducting for depreciation. The other method is to depreciate the damaged items in the event of a loss based on the number of years the part has been used. 5. Resulting Damage From an
Excluded Loss. Look for yacht policies that include coverage for resulting damage from an excluded loss. While excluded loss will not be covered, damage resulting from the excluded loss will be covered if your policy provides such protection. — Wiener
Four Myths
Sometimes, one’s perception of this or that is influenced by people who aren’t necessarily in the know. That leads to myths that are difficult to overcome. Here are four such misbeliefs, and the truth.
1. An insurance survey will result
in a higher premium, a cancelled policy or will require the boat owner to make costly repairs or upgrades. Actually, a marine surveyor is an expert, an extra set of eyes for underwriters and an experienced professional who is knowledgeable in looking at details to spot existing or potential hazards. Moreover, a marine surveyor can recommend repairs or modifications that will result in a safe and more reliable boat.

distinction among the carriers. Not all insurers are alike. Look for an insurer that has a team of experienced specialists who are there to help boaters manage their risk.

Three Ways To Nullify Coverage
Four No-Nos
Insurance is only useful if the policyholder keeps up his payments and doesn’t do anything to adversely affect his coverage. Three actions definitely have a negating effect on a policy.
Some things boat owners do are just plain wrong. Here are four scenarios everyone should avoid.
1. Boating Without Insurance. Many boaters who own relatively inexpensive boats make the decision to “self-insure,” figuring that if their boat sinks or is stolen, they’ll be bummed but life will go on. What they often don’t consider is the liability piece: What happens if they collide with another boat on the water and injure the people on that other boat (or their own passengers)? Without the protection of insurance, this puts the boater at tremendous financial risk. 2. Boating Without Insurance II. Those individuals who decide to “self-insure” are uninsured boaters. If your boat is struck by an uninsured watercraft that damages your boat and injures you or your passengers, you might have no recourse unless you have your own boat insurance policy with Uninsured Boater Coverage. With Uninsured Boater Coverage, your own policy will pay for the damages caused by the uninsured boater. 3. Failing to Winterize a Boat. For people who live in a location that experiences freezing temperatures, proper boat winterization is a must. Water expands when frozen, so imagine what this can do to the engine block or internal plumbing, and most watercraft policies will not cover these types of preventable damages.
4. Storing a Boat Without a Proper Cover. Something so

1. Failure to immediately notify your insurer of a potential claim. We’ve had cases where boaters had an accident and proceeded to make repairs without notifying us, according to BoatU.S.’s Croft. They threw away damaged items and then, only after the boat was repaired, did they attempt to file a claim. Almost every insurance policy requires that the insurance company be provided an opportunity to inspect the damaged items, so never proceed with any type of repair until you have notified your insurer. 2. Transfer of Interest. What this
means is if you sell your boat, the new owner doesn’t automatically have coverage under your policy. Once a boat is sold, most insurance policies are cancelled based on this policy language: You may not transfer

3. Failure to Cooperate with Claims Investigation in a Timely Manner. Understandably, insurers want to resolve claims as quickly as possible. Boat owners who make a claim and then delay or fail to respond to the investigation may have their coverage nullified. — Croft
And There’s More
While we like our easy-to-digest categories, not everything fits into a box so easily. Here are a few more tips from the insurance industry experts we spoke to. Not doing the simple things, such as changing gear oil, bellows and through-hull fittings, can cause catastrophic damage to your boat, and in many cases, your insurance policy might not pay for repairs, because you failed to properly maintain your boat. — Stern Your policy has seasonal and geographic limits, and you may not be covered outside of those areas (e.g., hurricane-prone areas during hurricane season). If you need to be boating in those areas during periods of increased storm activity, check with your underwriter first. — Wenz Many boat insurance policies today offer some kind of on-water towing endorsement that provides a level of towing and assistance for routine breakdowns or soft ungroundings. Know how you will be able to use that coverage. Who provides the service, and do they have 24-hour dispatch service to call for assistance? At what locations in the country will you have to pay for a tow out of pocket and be reimbursed? — Croft

Not all watercraft insurance policies are created equal. Benefits such as Disappearing Deductibles, Small Claim Forgiveness and even Pet Coverage are examples of small intangibles that can make a big difference. Check with your agent to see what coverages you have and what are available to you. — Stern Your insurance provider is on your side. They are in the business of protecting you, your assets, your family and your guests. And they provide information to help you do so. — Wenz What are you doing to reward me? A good insurance policy will give you credit for not having claims and reward you with things such as diminishing deductibles that reduce the amount of your deductible for each year you remain claims-free. — Croft

BOAT BUILDERS BUILD BETTER BOATS
Modern boat construction is highly standardized, computerized and constantly evolving. It’s based on new materials that were nonexistent not so long ago, and it yields vessels that are lighter, faster, stronger, more fuel efficient and infused with technology. These vessels are also faster and easier to build, will withstand greater forces and enjoy better longevity than boats of just 20 or 30 years ago. Jam-packed with amenities and systems, today’s pleasurecraft is at once more complex and easier to use. Advances in technology have touched every aspect — design, materials, production processes, and fit and finish — which together create a luxurious, amenityladen experience on the water. Let’s break it down.
M
DESIGN
Changes in design have led the way in how boats are built. But design has also been affected by the availability of innovative construction processes and new materials. It’s a chicken-or-the-egg situation. CAD (Computer Aided Design) isn’t a product of just the last 30 years but it has become more prevalent in boat building. “Sea Ray was one of the first to employ computer-assisted design, allowing us to model boats digitally,” said Ron Berman, vice president of product portfolio at Sea Ray. “We use fluid dynamics testing to measure hull efficiency and create bottoms with less resistance while airflow analysis has helped us mitigate back draft and water spray. Access to advanced analytics has also led to a better understanding of what to expect from the strength and structural integrity of a boat.” French builder Beneteau has a dedicated prototyping facility that includes robots that carve life-sized 3-D models of new designs out of foam. It’s a better way to get a feel for a boat’s dimensions than just inspecting a drawing. A big focus has been on minimizing weight, and that starts at the design level. “Weight-savings is key for both better performance and improved fuel economy,” said Laurent Fabre, president of Beneteau Americas. “We build lighter boats that require smaller engines and have better fuel economy.” Boater tastes have dictated design changes too, leading builders such as Sea Ray to connect the interior with the exterior for a more open feel and to use more hardtops, which has eliminated many of the hassles

associated with canvas enclosures. More and bigger windows, especially in the hull, have been added from consumer feedback. “New materials and better design have allowed us to do all of these,” Berman said. PROPULSION & HULL SHAPE
Developments in propulsion have impacted design as well. The advent of pod drives has introduced easy joystick maneuverability and enabled the use of smaller, more fuel-efficient engines. Of course, joystick systems aren’t limited to pod drives. Sea Ray uses both pods (double and triple Zeus pods with Cummins engines) and also V-drives that combine bow and stern thrusters for pod-like control. “You get maybe three miles per hour more out of a pod boat as well as some fuel savings, but the cost of entry is higher with pods,” Berman said. “That’s why we offer both.” The use of pods has also changed where the engines sit in the hull and therefore where the weight is centered. As engines moved aft, compensations had to be made so the boats would sit on their line. Pod boats also created more usable interior volume, which has made room for larger living spaces. Another fairly radical design change was the introduction of

the stepped hull, which reduces friction and drag so a boat can go faster with less horsepower. A notch in the hull introduces air from both sides, generating lift as the speed increases. The hull comes free of the water just aft of the step, reducing friction, so the boat can be powered by smaller, less expensive, fuel-sipping engines. “Our stepped hulls are by designer Michael Peters,” said Phil Bourque of center console boat builder Mag Bay Yachts. “Because we build solid fiberglass hulls, the step offsets the weight with some efficiencies and performance.” Fewer boats are stick built these days. Catalina uses five pieces in its construction — the hull, structural grid, hull liner, deck and deck liner — and tolerances, according to the company’s architect and builder, Gerry Douglas, are often less than one-eighth of an inch, so “precision is key, even on paper.” Watertight bulkheads have become standard and even Catalina’s hullto-deck joint has changed. “We’ve done away with teak toe rails that could leak and had to be varnished and replaced them with an integral fiberglass cap,” Douglas said. Allowances are also made in the design process for accessories such as gyro stabilizers. “On our center consoles, we offer both joystick control with the SeaStar Optimus and gyros,” Bourque said. “These weren’t even a distant dream on a 30-foot fishing boat a few years ago.” Finally, boats are now designed to do double and triple duty, so the whole family can enjoy boating. That has led to questions such as, “Is this a fishing boat that cruises
or a cruising boat that fishes?” Boats simply can’t do just one thing anymore, and that has affected both how they are designed and built.
A Catalina hull rests between procedures in the mold.
Once out of the mold, a Catalina hull moves to the next production facility.
MATERIALS
Arguably, the most impactful change in boat building comes from the materials themselves. Your dad’s resin, glass mat and gelcoat were a far cry from what’s available today. Gelcoat retains its color and resists cracks better, and adhesives are much improved. “Structural adhesives have made headway as well,” Douglas said, “and we use them in our hull-to-deck joints. Not only is that lighter, it does away with leaks.” New vinylester (vs. polyester) resins are more flexible, have greater resistance to moisture and are stronger, so less resin is used, resulting in a lighter build. Coring materials have evolved too. Balsa wood is still used, but some builders prefer PVC (polyurethane) foam to protect against water intrusion. Catalina has moved to a Carbon-Core plastic honeycomb for its deck sandwich, because it doesn’t absorb water — and it cut 400 pounds out of a new 42-footer. Fiber has changed as well. Woven fabric has given way to knitted fibers, to create parts that are stiffer, stronger and lighter, because they require less resin to wet out. Multidirectional knitted fabric can take more stress (pounding into head seas), so parts last longer without cracking. Although knitted fiber is more expensive due to the complex machinery needed to produce it, it lays flatter and will result
in less print-through, which is where the pattern of the fiber becomes visible through the gelcoat as the boat ages. Beneteau uses a computerized cutter for fiberglass cloth that is laid into the hulls, decks, liners and component structures. The strips of cloth are cut with precision, numbered, labeled and packed into a kit bound for a specific vessel. It reduces labor and enhances consistency. The pieces even have an arrow on them to show the orientation of the cloth to the bow. Finally, carbon fiber has been touted as a miracle compound in numerous industries, and boat building is no exception. Aramid fibers, which are lighter and stiffer than glass fibers, allow a lower resin use per pound. But carbon fiber doesn’t come cheap. While glass fiber may cost around $2 per pound, carbon fiber can run upwards of $25 per pound, so it is often used sparingly for reinforcement or where weight must be kept down. “We use carbon fiber in key areas like our hardtops and sunroofs,” Sea Ray’s Berman said. “You can’t beat it for weight savings up high.” PRODUCTION
Of course, it’s not just the materials but how they are put together that builds a new kind of boat. There are three major types of building processes. First is traditional hand layup, which is the most common and is widely used by companies including Mag Bay. The second is resin infusion, a dry layup that is bagged and infused with resin through a vacuum; it’s used to make
While Sea Ray uses all of the latest in precision robots and cutting techniques, the human touch still applies for some of the finishing work.

hulls, decks and component parts. Vacuum bagging allows a better fiber-to-resin ratio, wastes less resin overall, is cleaner and yields results that are consistent. “We use infusion on our superstructure parts (hardtops on flybridges) to save weight,” Berman said. “It’s also more predictable for better quality control.” Beneteau is experimenting with different bagging technologies, focusing on reusable silicone mats rather than plastic bags, to save money and lessen the
environmental impact. Finally, there is injection molding, where two molds are sandwiched around materials such as gelcoat, fiber and coring and then injected with resin to create a perfect finish on both sides. There is no one optimal process. Instead, the choice of technology depends on the boat part being manufactured as the builder seeks to optimize the relationship between strength, weight, sound attenuation and thermal insulation, as well as provide a process that reduces labor and parts variability. Most companies, including Beneteau, Sea Ray and Catalina, divide their facilities into three areas: molding, cutting/trimming, and assembly. “Not only does this keep the facilities cleaner, it moves the boat
Barrett Howarth, vice president of Mag Bay, said, “Our five-axis milling machine has really given us an advantage. It helps us cut from several different directions, increasing parts consistency.” EFFICIENCIES
Finally, boat building is all about process, a systematic industrialized approach that is borrowing from other businesses for better efficiencies. Groupe Beneteau builds nearly 8,500 boats annually between more than seven brands in 16 production and assembly facilities in four countries, including the U.S. With volume like that, process efficiencies come under the microscope. “We’ve studied best practices in other industries like automotive, and we focus on elements of lean manufacturing, just-intime supply chain management and continuous process improvement,” Fabre said. Beneteau has eight building facilities in France alone. Boats are grouped and assigned to a plant according to size, not type (power or sail), because larger boats take more time to build due to their complexity. Similarly sized boats move along the line at the same rate. In each plant, tooling is mobile so work stations can be disassembled, moved or changed on the fly to mirror changes in sales orders. Boats are lined up on the beam and move down an assembly line to a new workstation every one to three days. Sea Ray also separates larger and smaller boats. “The electrical skills needed on a 50-footer are specialized, while on a 20-footer it may be more plug-and-play,” Berman said. Standardized workflow for plumbing, electrical and furniture installation is a highly repeated process that minimizes errors. Boats are built from the hull up, so everything, including the engines, systems, bulkheads and furniture, is often installed before the deck goes on like a lid. Catalina, on the other hand, adds the deck and then inserts the systems via the companionway. Douglas recognizes the importance of being able to remove systems later and highlights access to key systems. Wiring is color-coded and plumbing is fully labeled. What your dad wouldn’t have given

through its various production stages at an optimal rate,” Fabre said. The tools of precision manufacturing have also made great progress. While CNC (Computer Numerical Control) cutting routers were available 30 years ago in other industries, they are now prevalent in boat building. Beneteau’s CNC deck-cutting robots carve holes for hatches, fixtures and attachments. A specific model’s deck is cut in a sealed room to make the process cleaner and faster. The process is also more precise, relying less on human handling.

for that during his maintenance projects. On the newest boats, engine filters and strainers are grouped behind a single panel in the aft cabin. “If you can’t get to it, you won’t take care of it,” Douglas said. “The whole boat is designed around accessibility.” At Beneteau, components are binned per vessel, so a specific model receives crates of all wooden parts, fixtures, hose and wire delivered directly to the workstation. Work times are closely monitored and documented for continuous improvement.
that’s finished from every side while engineered woods have lightened the load and helped usher out Tupperware-style white fiberglass surfaces. Beneteau’s woodworking facility in France supplies the interiors (the most expensive part of the build) for all its vessels worldwide. Furniture is made with both traditional wood and engineered Alpi wood, a material that won’t warp, creates lighter cabinetry and bulkheads, and is pressed from wood from sustainable sources. Some wooden parts are hand-milled while others are
“IF YOU CAN’T GET TO IT, YOU WON’T TAKE CARE OF IT. THE WHOLE BOAT IS DESIGNED AROUND ACCESSIBILITY.” Quality control is at every step, including testing through-hulls and engines in a pool before the boat is prepared for shipment. FINISHES & AMENITIES
Changes in construction have been driven by technological advances but also by the changing tastes and expectations of boaters themselves. For example, boats have become wider and taller to offer greater interior volume and better headroom. Boats have also become less utilitarian by design. All materials and finishes aboard have been elevated in quality to match the at-home experience. “People want to feel like they’re spending the weekend at a luxury spa, not camping,” Berman said. “We can’t get away with Formica counters on a 50-footer today.” Granite countertops, full-sized appliances, high-end textiles and leather accents abound. A few years ago, energy efficient LEDs set boat lighting on its head. Soft indirect lighting has brought a glow to interiors while color-changing, sound-synchronized underwater lights have created new environments outside, unimaginable just a few years ago. Faster and easier manufacturing of component parts has brought cabinetry
built with computer-assisted cutting and varnishing. Complex curved trim pieces are often made of pressed layers of wood that are cured in 20 minutes using molds with high-frequency sound waves. Catalina’s focus is on use of solid wood in doorframes and cabinet corners. This approach yields more durable edges that can be fixed, sanded and re-varnished in case of damage down the road. The expectation of a high-quality finish is pervasive in all segments. USER EXPERIENCE
Hidden technology has brought Wi-Fi and remote Bluetoothenabled interfaces just like at home, and in many cases, it all had to be built in before the deck ever went on. The advent of digital switching, which brings multiple systems under one control, has served to mitigate the complexity that has come with additional technology. You can interface with climate, lighting and generators from one panel with better monitoring and diagnostics overall. “Digital switching has made boats friendlier,” Berman said. “We borrowed the approach to our user interface from Apple with the attitude, you already know how to use this.”

During the summer, Blake Island is a very popular stop for boaters.
THE SOUND OF SILENCE
FEATUR E
ANYTIME GETAWAY
BLAKE ISLAND IS THE PERFECT OFF-SEASON RETREAT AND THE CURE FOR CABIN FEVER. STORY AND PHOTOS BY DEANE HISLOP
WHEN WE MOORED EASY GOIN’ in Des Moines, Wash., one of our favorite off-season destinations was Blake Island Marine Park. This past spring, we had the opportunity to visit one of Puget Sound’s premier parks again. Nestled between Bainbridge and Vashon islands and approximately seven miles from downtown Seattle’s waterfront, Blake Island’s small harbor, only accessible by boat, is packed with boats rafted on the 1,500 feet of dock four to five months out
of the year. Each of the 24 mooring buoys surrounding the island is occupied and the island bustles with, according to Ranger Ruppert, a reported 100,000 visitors per year.
In the off-season, the island reclaims its anonymity. Puget Sound boaters seem to get amnesia in the off-season, forgetting that the 475-acre island is easy to reach, for the Seattle/Tacoma boater, for weekend or day cruises throughout the year in most conditions. As a result, a sense of remoteness returns that is usually reserved for more distant destinations, and it’s easy to escape from the hassles and humdrum of everyday life. That’s why we pack warm clothes and raingear, along with plenty of coffee and warm comfort food. We also pull NOAA chart 18449 from the chart locker before setting course for the “sprit” island.
AMENITIES A small-craft basin with floats is tucked behind a rock breakwater on the northeast point of the island. The entrance is at the north end of the breakwater between green SEAMAGAZINE.COM FEBRUARY 2017

and red markers on pilings that mark the dredged channel. Stray outside the markers and it’s easy to go aground. The first floats are reserved for commercial traffic, Tillicum Village staff and park rangers. The remaining four docks are for public use; however, the first section is a 30-minute loading/unloading area. The floats inside the breakwater have 30-amp power outlets available for visiting boaters. A self-service pay station is on shore at the head of the ramps where fees of $0.70 per foot and $6 per night for power are collected year-round. Protection is good in most conditions, except when winds blow from the north. South of the dock ramp are restroom facilities with showers, open year-round, and two covered picnic shelters with fire pits and picnic tables for rainy days. All garbage must be packed out. If you prefer to hang on a buoy, there are 24 scattered around the island. Boats 36 feet and longer are not allowed to tie to the buoys at the south end of the island. All other buoys have a size limit of no more than 45 feet. Size limits are posted on the buoys. A fee of $15 per night is collected year-round at on-shore self-registration pay stations. A pumpout station is located

just inside the breakwater and is limited to vessels with a length of no more than 40 feet. The park store in the park office offers T-shirts, snacks, ice cream, firewood and limited camping supplies.
BACKGROUND Blake Island was an ancestral campground of the Suquamish and Duwamish Native American tribes who took advantage of the local resources. It is also believed to be the birthplace of Chief Seattle (“See-ahth”), for whom the city of Seattle was named. In 1792, Capt. George Vancouver of the British Royal Navy anchored off the south tip of Bainbridge Island, known as Restoration Point, and sent his longboats to survey farther south. He noted in his journal “a small round
island” but never named it. Using the journal in 1841, Lt. Charles Wilkes of the United States Exploring Expedition officially named the island after George Smith Blake, who commanded U.S. Coast Survey vessels from 1837 to 1848. During the mid-1800s, the Port Madison Saw Mill logged the virgin forest from Blake Island. With no more trees to harvest, the island held little value and the mill fell delinquent on property taxes, forcing a Seattle bank to foreclose and take possession. William Pitt Trimble acquired the island at the turn of the century, renamed it Trimble Island and transformed it into a magnificent private estate for his wife and five children. The two-story mansion had 12 rooms and five fireplaces. When the

tree caretakers weren’t tending to the lawn and the formal and vegetable gardens, they would patrol the shoreline and chase away bootleggers who nicknamed the island “Smuggler’s Island.” After his wife drowned in Seattle in 1929, Trimble never returned to the property. A small portion of the mansion’s foundation can be seen today, although the home itself was destroyed by fire. The history of the Trimble estate appears on a sign at the site of the former mansion. In 1958, Washington State Land Commissioner Bret Cole learned of development plans to turn the island into an exclusive housing project with a luxury resort, hotel and marina. He believed the island should be preserved for the general public’s use, and in 1959 the island was sold to Washington state and work began to develop the land for public use. The property became Blake Island State Park in October 1974 and the rock jetty and boat basin were constructed in 1975.
A TASTE OF HISTORY The marina and Tillicum Village Northwest Coast Indian Cultural Center longhouse serve as the public hub to the otherwise undeveloped island. From mid-April through September, guests depart from Seattle aboard Argosy Cruises on a four-hour tour. The tour includes the cruise, a Northwest Indian-style salmon bake and a stage show. Visiting boaters can sign up (in advance) for lunch or dinner and the show at the gift shop or by contacting Argosy Cruises.
CURE FOR CABIN FEVER The island provides a magnificent view of snow-capped Mt. Rainier and the Olympic Mountains. Our last visit was on a wonderful clear, crisp night and the view of the Seattle skyline was spectacular. The following morning, resident deer grazed in the field at the top of the ramp. With the lack of visitors to the island
during the off-season, it’s not uncommon to encounter some of the resident wildlife while walking the beach or hiking the 15 and a half miles of trails. Island critters include raccoons, chipmunks, river otters, squirrels, mink, eagles, osprey, geese and many other types of birds. We enjoy hiking through the inner island’s quiet lushness and large secondgrowth forest. Combing the five miles of beach on a brisk day can be energizing. Vegetation includes native Northwest trees and shrubs. Visitors can walk the nature trails and learn about the native plants that are described by signage along the way. Blake Island’s tranquility makes an off-season visit a relaxing and rejuvenating day or overnight getaway.

THE MORE THINGS CHANGE… PORT ORCHARD HAS PLENTY OF NEW FEATURES, BUT IT HASN’T FORGOTTEN ITS ROOTS. STORY AND PHOTOS BY DEANE HISLOP
GRAB A BITE Nearby eateries offer a wide variety of dining choices, from pub fare to fine dining with a water view. For lunch we took one of Garcia’s suggestions and enjoyed a very good meal at Amy’s On the Bay 2 , which specializes in surf-and-turf offerings served amid a relaxing waterfront view. Dinner was Mexican fare at La Palapa 3 , another suggestion — and a good one. Other suggested restaurants were Thai Charlie’s 4 , Golden Grill on the Bay (Chinese) 5 , Bay Street Bistro (Northwest flavors with Italian/Mediterranean influences) 6 and the Home Made Café (comfort food made from scratch) 7 .
MOOR YOUR VESSEL
The marina is lined with flowers, and there is plenty of guest moorage.
AFTER AN EASY MORNING CRUISE north from Gig Harbor, via the Colvos and Rich passages, we pulled into Port Orchard Marina 1 , our home for the next couple of days. The city of Port Orchard is located just south of Bremerton across Sinclair Inlet. Once Easy Goin’ was secured in her guest slip, Arlene and I headed for the marina office to check in, where we were met by the always helpful and energetic Kathy Garcia, Port of Bremerton marina operations manager/harbormaster. The Port Orchard and Bremerton marinas are managed and maintained by Port of Bremerton. Before leaving the office we had a chance to visit with Garcia and her staff. They informed us of changes in town since our last visit a few years before and provided a few suggestions where to enjoy lunch and dinner.
IN TOWN Port Orchard has an old-fashioned look, with covered sidewalks and storefronts. Downtown is easily walkable and is only
a block from the marina. For the serious shopper, a collection of eclectic boutiques and collectibles shops line Bay Street, where merchants offer a mix of designer goods and retro finds. For variety, Port Orchard is home to a collection of toy and game stores, bookstores and galleries. The area’s rich history and cultural heritage ensures there are antiques and vintage finds in local antique shops. Specialty shops feature goodies from jawbreakers and taffy to handcrafted chocolates and ice cream.
When we arrived, there was plenty of room among the 1,500 feet of linear guest moorage and 46 slips, with a 40-foot maximum length. Out on the docks behind a security gate, visitors have access to 30- and 50-amp power, water, Wi-Fi and an activity float with a barbecue for group gatherings. Nearby are the marina office, immaculate restrooms, free showers and laundry accessible only by a security code, which is issued when you pay for moorage. The fuel dock is located out near the entrance to the marina and offers diesel, gas and a pumpout.
IN THE PARK The Waterfront Pedestrian Path 8 , with its view of the naval shipyard across the inlet and Olympic Mountains in the distance, is a scenic spot for a stroll or bike ride. Port Orchard offers two pet-friendly waterfront parks and a children’s area has play features for kids of all abilities. Marina Park 9 , with a boardwalk and a covered gazebo, offers beach access and is the site of a Farmer’s Market from April to October.

WAY UP THE COAST
THERE’S MORE THAN WINE TO TRY IN BODEGA BAY. BODEGA BAY IS A CHARMING stop along the California coast. By land, it’s 40 miles north of San Francisco on Pacific Coast Highway. Truly a nature lover’s paradise, Bodega Bay features spectacular scenic cliffs, sandy coves, and vantage points for observing migrating whales and birds. Speaking of the birds, Bodega Bay was also the setting for the 1963 Alfred Hitchcock film of the same name.
WHERE TO MOOR When visiting Bodega Bay, boaters have a few options to moor in this protected bay. Spud Point Marina 1 is a popular fishing and crabbing destination and is one of the
best ocean marinas in Northern California, with no bar to transit when entering and exiting the harbor. The marina welcomes monthly berthers, overnight visitors and yacht club events. Doran Park 2 includes plenty of areas to launch a boat and
designated areas for parking boat trailers. Boat launch fees are $11.
GO NATIVE There is plenty to do, see and eat in Bodega Bay. Beautiful coastlines are everywhere you look. The bay is a fisherman’s paradise, so you can hook your own catch of the day or enjoy someone else’s on the bustling pier. For an alternative way to enjoy the coastline, Horse ’N Around offers trail rides and beach rides for reasonable prices. What is more romantic than riding through the dunes on horseback?

MEET STEPHEN JACKSON INSTRUCTOR AT THE MARITIME INSTITUTE
STEPHEN JACKSON IS A SEASONED sailor, currently teaching part-time at the Maritime Institute in San Diego. He has logged over a quarter of a million miles on small vessels, mostly sailboats, and over a million miles on large ships. He has a U.S. Coast Guard license as Master Mariner, Unlimited Upon Oceans as well as a Master Sail 100T Upon Oceans license. He and his wife plan to make the Great Loop, cruising the eastern half of the U.S., about 6,000 miles.
7:56 AM
He started sailing dinghies at seven years old and has spent his adult life on the water, going so far as to get a 2nd Mate license with a 1600T Master cross-over. In between, he earned every license he could, from Hawaii to San Diego to the Gulf of Mexico. Now, Jackson teaches Bridge Resource Management for people upgrading their licenses above 100T and is Coast Guardapproved to teach all the lower level licensing. He sails part-time for Military Sealift Command as a deck officer. Why is the ocean a special place to you? In Hawaii, where I was raised, the ocean was always a large part of my life. I started sailing when I was seven, and it has been a lifelong love affair. My son was born in Hawaii and has been around the water since he was two days old. He went sailing the first time when he was two months old and loved it. Today he still loves the ocean and spends a lot of time on, in and under it. The ocean is my mistress, and my wife understands my need to run away to sea and even encourages me to do it. She knows I work hard work when on ships, but understands my love affair. Have you had a particularly fulfilling experience at sea? I spent a year on the missionary ship Logos Hope. These are non-paid positions; everyone pays support to cover their room and board. I both served on the ship as a deck officer and conducted Basic Safety Training (BST) for the new people joining the ship. Everyone who serves aboard has to go through BST. I always felt I needed to give back something for all the help I had gotten when I was climbing the license ladder. It was a year that I’m very glad I did, not only to give back, but I learned a lot from people from all over the world both crew and guests. Logos Hope carries between 350 and 400 crew representing about 56 different nations. The licensed people come from many different countries as well, and all people that serve aboard speak some English.
Who should give serious consideration to getting a U.S. Coast Guard captain’s license? I think all individuals who operate vessels, where they operate in close quarters to other yachts as well as ships, can learn a lot by taking a class toward getting licensed. Some will have enough boating time to get licensed after taking a class, while others may not have sea time for a license but will better understand what is needed to avoid trouble or creating a dangerous situation. That said, I’m against either the federal or state government licensing pleasureboat operators. There are some states that do

require pleasureboat operators to have a state license. I am not sure, but I believe, that a U.S. Coast Guard license should do for any requirements for state-mandated licensing. There are many excellent programs that offer practical safe boat handling, including junior and adult sailing programs, Coast Guard Auxiliary, as well as other programs. Should people consider getting a license even though they never want to run a commercial vessel? One big advantage is that they will find most insurance companies will give them a discount on boat insurance. The license or a certificate of a course completion will show the insurance company that these individuals do have some knowledge, and the license shows experience. One big question is this: Does licensing make a yacht owner a safer boat operator? No. We have a hard time teaching judgement, although we tend to use better judgement when we have better knowledge.
I think with knowledge, close calls between yachts, as well as between ships and yachts, could be reduced. During my career I have seen many close calls as well as some preventable accidents, between yachts and yachts, as well as yachts and ships. Remember, there are still collisions between ships with knowledgeable and well-trained officers and very good electronics for navigation on the bridge. If someone isn’t necessarily interested in getting a U.S. Coast Guard license but does want to get some education, which of the courses at the Maritime Institute would be most enlightening? Many of the classes that are taught at Maritime Institute can be helpful to anyone who operates a vessel. Rules of the Road understanding is important for all people operating boats. Depending on what a person wants to use their boat for and what electronic equipment they have, they might consider many of the other
courses they offer. Things like Basic Safety Training, Radar, Celestial Navigation, etc. Basic Safety Training will give the boat owner a much better understanding of what they might face if they have to abandon their vessel at sea and take to a life raft, or other emergency at sea. Radar training will help the owner understand what makes a radar work, better understand what they are looking at on a radar screen, how to best tune the radar, and how to rapid plot, to see if another vessel might be a threat to your safe navigation. Celestial Navigation is a must for anyone that is going offshore or any long-distance cruising. GPS is a great tool but units have been known to fail. Maritime Institute also offers many other course that people will fine helpful depending on how they use their boat.

FEBRUARY’S QUESTION: If I appoint a central broker to sell my yacht, do I lose all of the decision-making power when it comes to negotiations?
F
OR THIS MONTH’S answer, we turn to the Certified Professional Yacht Broker Code of Ethics. Here’s what Article 3 has to say: In the event of multiple offers all being refused by an owner, the listing Broker shall follow the instructions of the owner regarding the manner of continuing negotiations with multiple prospective buyers. These instructions should not only address the method of determining which offer will be accepted, but whether the owner wishes the existence of other current negotiations to be revealed to other Brokers and prospects. If the owner seeks the listing Broker’s advice for handling simultaneous negotiations, the existence of other negotiations should be revealed, mitigating the likelihood that other prospects and Brokers will feel abused if they later learn that the listing Broker was not forthcoming with the information that other negotiations were in progress. The following procedures are endorsed as fair and reasonable, although not necessarily the only fair and reasonable procedures.
(a) The owner can instruct the listing Broker to present a counter offer to each prospective buyer via the Broker who obtained the original offers, in the order that the original offers were presented with the understanding that he will accept the offer of the first prospect to meet this price (and acceptable terms). The counter should be transmitted to all parties as quickly as possible. Should a Broker and/or prospect not be immediately reachable, the process of transmitting the counter to the other Brokers and/or prospects should continue without delay. This procedure has the advantage of motivating all prospects to be the first to meet the counter without fear that they might pay more than the lowest price at which the yacht can be purchased. (b) The owner may instruct the listing Broker to request, by a specified deadline, one final, best offer from all prospects who have made offers. If the owner wishes to do so he may also convey the minimum price
that he is willing to accept. The owner will, at the specified time, select whichever offer he considers most acceptable, if any, and will respond either by simply accepting that offer or by requesting more information upon which to base his decision. If more than one offer is “most acceptable” and equally acceptable, the acceptance will be given to the party whose deposit was first placed in escrow by the Broker who received the offer. The advantages of this procedure are that it reassures the prospective buyers that they are not in a “bidding war” against unseen competitors. They can submit sealed, final bids, and experience shows that this procedure lessens the likelihood that all, or most, of the prospects will simply withdraw from negotiations when they discover they are bidding against someone else. It also gives the seller some chance that the final selling price will be higher than his counter.
