USC’s Wrigley Institute and Marine BioEnergy propose an experimental project to produce a biofuel alternative. By Parimal M. Rohit AVALON — Plans to build an experimental kelp cultivation system just off the shore of Catalina Island is slated to be debated by the quasi-judicial California Coastal Commission later this month, with the University of Southern California’s Wrigley Institute for Environmental Studies and Marine BioEnergy Inc. hoping to carry out a three-year test to ultimately produce a biofuel alternative. Marine BioEnergy believes kelp can be a viable source material to produce bio-diesel or biofuels, according to a Coastal Commission staff report. “As a feedstock for biofuel, kelp has the potential to provide an alternative to other biofuel feed stocks and fossil fuels that does not compete with food production on land, and does not require fresh water, pesticides, or artificial fertilizers,” a Coastal Commission staff report to commissioners stated. Coastal Commissioners will be weighing in whether the experimental project in the Catalina Channel can go forward at its May meetings in San Diego. The MarineBioEnergy-USC
Wrigley Institute proposal is one of the first orders of business on May 10. “Through this project, Marine BioEnergy seeks to demonstrate that kelp farming in deep ocean waters far from shore could be commercially viable using its cultivation technique,” the Coastal Commission staff report stated. “Marine BioEnergy and the project’s fiscal sponsor, the U.S. Department of Energy’s Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) Division, is interested in kelp as a potential source of material to produce bio-diesel or biofuel.” Marine BioEnergy could build up to four offshore test sites near Howland’s Landing at the west end of Catalina Island, meaning the experimental kelp farming project would be conducted within range of Two Harbors. The Coastal Commission is tasked with ensuring the BioEnergy proposal is the least environmentally damaging option possible. “No known project alternatives would meet the objective of the proposed project – to install and operate open ocean kelp cultivation equipment – without the placement of at least some fill material in coastal waters to maintain the equipment in place,” Coastal Commission staff stated. The project could be built and installed using a torpedo anchoring system, as it would use the smallest footprint, according to the Coastal
Commission. However the proposed anchoring system is largely untested, increasing the risk of the equipment being abandoned in the open ocean. “If a torpedo anchor becomes deeply embedded, it can be Catalina Island’s East End could be the site of an experimental kelp cultivation very difficult system. to remove and may need to be abandoned in place once it is no damaging alternative to the use of a longer in use,” Coastal Commission more traditional anchoring system that staff stated in a report to commissionwould operate with more certainty.” ers. “Given the untested status of the Satisfactory alternatives to the torpedo anchor systems considered by torpedo anchoring system were recomMarine BioEnergy, the potential need mended in the Coastal Commission for them to be abandoned in place, staff report. and their uncertain effectiveness, their Other items to be considered by the use would raise a variety of questions Coastal Commission at its May meetwith regard to adverse environmental ings include possible decisions on a impacts. coastal permit application for a 48-slip “If the anchoring system were to marina redevelopment in Newport fail, the mooring, buoy, and cultivaBeach and an appeal of the Redondo tion equipment could break free and Beach Waterfront and boat launch drift, potentially putting at risk marine ramp project. wildlife, habitat, fisheries and boating The Coastal Commission will meet activities,” Coastal Commission staff at San Diego’s Board of Supervisors continued. “This anchoring system Chambers – located at 1600 Pacific would therefore not be a feasible less Highway, San Diego – May 10-12.

The justices denied, without comment, Fane Lozman’s petition asking them to enforce their 2013 ruling by ordering the city of Riviera Beach to pay him about $365,000 for the home’s value and legal fees.

The 2013 ruling set a new standard for floating homes and other structures. It meant strict federal maritime law could no longer be applied to disputes involving floating structures that have no traditional characteristics of a vessel, such as an engine, rudder or sails. The decision affected thousands of floating homes and business owners across the U.S., including floating gambling casinos docked on rivers. Justice Stephen Breyer, writing for the court’s 7-2 majority in the 2013 case, said the decision comes down to a simple proposition: “Not every floating structure is a vessel.” “To state the obvious, a

They are also making more subtle modifications that may not have been in everyone’s periscope when the Navy admitted women into the Silent Service.

The dispute began after Lozman took up residence aboard his houseboat at a Riviera Beach marina in 2006. He became involved in a public battle with the city over its plans to turn the marina over to a developer, eventually leading to the seizure and eventual destruction in 2010 of his floating home under maritime law by Riviera Beach authorities.

California legislators are weighing a law proposal to make the state’s monitoring of climate change effects (such as sea level rise) a permanent process.
Efforts to address sea level rise could become permanent Assembly member’s proposal to continue the state’s monitoring effects of climate change progresses through legislature. By Parimal M. Rohit SACRAMENTO — A portion of California’s efforts to address sea level rise and the effects of climate change could become a regular occurrence as an Assembly member’s proposal to extend use of planning tools makes its way up the legislative ladder indefinitely. Assembly member Marc Berman, D-Palo Alto, introduced Assembly Bill 184 (AB 184) in January, hoping to update a 2014 law that established a statewide online database for sea level rise planning and modeling. The 2014 law came with a sunset provision to end the state’s efforts by Jan. 1, 2018. The Assembly’s Appropriations Committee approved Berman’s proposal by a 13-4 vote on April 5; the bill cleared the lower house’s Natural Resources Committee on March 20, with nine of 10 committee members in support. AB 184, if passed and signed into law, would eliminate the sunset provision and allow the state to continue maintaining a sea level rise database permanently. “The database provides sea level rise planning information, which includes studies, modeling, mapping, cost-benefit analysis, vulnerability assessments, adaptation projects as well as statuses and updates of Local Coastal Programs,” Berman’s staff said in a released statement. “The database is a single, centrally located tool and is beneficial to the state, local govern-
ments, and the public by showing actions taken to address sea level rise, enabling a more effective and coordinated response.” The Assembly Appropriations Committee estimated the state’s Natural Resources Agency, or NRA, would require $65,000 annually from the state’s General Fund or Cost of Implementation Account to keep the database operational. Berman stated his proposal would go a long way to ensure the state had enough tools to plan for and address the effects of climate change – such as sea level rise – both today and in the future. “Across California, our communities are threatened by sea level rise. Our homes, roads, and critical infrastructure are all vulnerable. California has been a leader in addressing the impacts of climate change and created a first of its kind sea level rise database,” Berman said. “This planning and educational tool is too valuable to end.” Existing law already requires the NRA, in conjunction with the Ocean Protection Council, to maintain a “Planning for Sea Level Rise Database.” Information provided to the NRA from public and private entities would be posted on the online database biannually. The NRA is also required to update its climate adaptation strategy – known as Safeguarding California Plan – every three years as of July 1. Meanwhile the California Coastal Conservancy was authorized by 2014 legislation to award grants to nonprofit organizations and public agencies to address the effects – both real and potential – of climate change on coastal resources. State law also required public trust lands with gross revenues exceeding See SEA LEVEL BILL page 16

Re: Editorial: Impending decision of Dana Point Harbor manager is tainted (April 7-20 issue)
Gross’ motives questioned “Gross once personally prevented Ambrosia Brody, The Log’s former reporter and editor, from attending a public meeting in Dana Point.” - this should never happen and I would question any public official’s motivation for doing this. Scott Croft, BoatUS Vice President of Public Affairs
Gross had his chance The fact is Orange County has a long history of ethical violations by elected and appointed officials, as well as by employees that serve its multitude of county agencies. If you connect the dots between the county and the management of Dana Point Harbor, the picture paints an image of violations, bullying and poor management of tax payer money. Trust in government is dependent upon officials that place the public interest ahead of their own, Mr. Gross had his chance and failed. Orange County tax payers deserve better.
Gross did a great job Dear Mr. Rohit, I never make comments on articles, but this one irks me. I am a long time avid boater in Dana Point and have spent time there almost daily for over thirty years. I have followed the “long awaited revitalization” of the harbor with great interest since its inception. I agree with your statement that “the county has spent more than 20 years trying to revitalize Dana Point Harbor, spending a whopping $20 million of taxpayer money on plans, reviews, consultants, analyses and management firms … but nothing more than a few roadside improvements near the waterfront to show for all the time and money spent.” However, I think you have totally tipped your hand as to your motivation for this article by stating “We also question whether Gross honors freedom of the press. Gross once personally prevented Ambrosia Brody, The Log’s former reporter and editor, from attending a public meeting in Dana Point.” As always, there are 2 sides to every story, including yours, and I would love to hear the other side.

San Diego coalition hopes to combat illegal charters Coast Guard, Port of San Diego, Harbor Police and city lifeguards team up to regulate passenger-for-hire activities. By Parimal M. Rohit SAN DIEGO — Should passenger-for-hire services be left entirely to the open market, free of government interference? Is formal regulation of illegal charters a means to ensure safety on the waters or another revenue stream for public agencies? These are some of the reactions to attempts by the U.S. Coast Guard and regional policymakers to regulate unauthorized passenger-forhire activities in local waters. Some argue the government is interfering in an honest economic activity. Still others contend illegal charter regulations aren’t about safety as much as they are another way to extract money from everyday people just trying to enjoy a day on the water with others no different than King Leonidas’ stroll with 300 of his personal bodyguards at the behest of Sparta’s elder statesmen. The depth of illegal charter use in San Diego Bay might not be easily discernable. Enforcement of illegal charter activity mostly
depends upon tips from community members or a random boat boarding by Harbor Police. Coordinated statistics of the frequency of illegal charter operations within the harbor are not readily available. Perhaps a multiagency effort to address the illegal charter or passenger-for-hire activities in San Diego Bay could help provide some clarity. There is a working group of federal and regional agencies hoping to change the tide and rewrite the narrative of charter regulations. This San Diego-based group is a joint effort bringing together federal (Coast Guard), regional (Port of San Diego and San Diego Harbor Police) and city (San Diego Lifeguard Service, City Attorney’s Office) agencies to combat illegal charter use in the nation’s southwestern-most urban metropolis. Its efforts are a work-in-progress, but representatives from the aforementioned agencies all stated the working group’s goal is to work with all harbor users to foster education and promote safety. Keeping the public educated and safe is juxtaposed with the difficulty of regulating illegal charter/passenger-for-hire operations, according to the Coast Guard’s investigations team. On the one hand, the working group brings several See STANDING WATCH page 10

Fast Facts: Hydroplane Racing at Salton Sea By Parimal M. Rohit One of Southern California’s largest inland waterways apparently doubles as the home of hydroplane and speedboat racing. National Motorist, in its January/February 1950 issue, proclaimed Salton Sea to be “the fastest body of water in the world for speedboat racing.” Boat racing enthusiasts reportedly flocked to Salton Sea more than 20 years earlier for a speedboat race of the ages. The Salton Sea Boat Race – held Dec. 14, 1929 – not only drew a large crowd but also delivered excitement on the water. “The Salton Sea Boat Race … was particularly exciting because rough waters at regattas at Lake Elsinore and Long Beach that year had kept down speed and there was great expectation that records would fall at Salton Sea,” an entry in
“The Salton Sea: California’s Overlooked Treasure” stated. “Prizes included the $450 Mackay Circuit Trophy, the $400 trophies awarded by Richfield Oil Co., and the $500 Warren S. Ripple prize, offered for the first Johnson motor to make 50 miles per hour.” Nearly 2,000 people attended the event, according to a newspaper report of the race. Most of those in attendance, according to the report, were “outside people with not as many locals as expected.” Five new world records were set at the Salton Sea Boat Race, according to the narrative in “The Salton Sea: California’s Overlooked Treasure.” The book’s author goes on to state three members of the Salton Sea Yacht Club invented hydroplane racing at around the same time.

County officials indicated Marina del Rey could benefit from at least one community boating center. Such a center, if realized, could benefit local boaters as well as regional, national and international visitors, county officials stated.
A community boating center could be developed in Marina del Rey County officials discuss Marina del Rey’s impending plans and challenges at special night meeting. By Nina K. Jussila MARINA DEL REY — Harbor-related businesses, boating organizations and boaters filled the Community Room at Burton W. Chace Park in Marina del Rey on April 13, voicing their thoughts and concerns regarding the county’s largest harbor at a special night meeting hosted by the Small Craft Harbor Commission. Gary Jones, director of the Department of Beaches and Harbors for Los Angeles County, acknowledged the challenges Marina del Rey has with the seemingly never-ending redevelopment projects occurring in the marina. One particular theme emerged from this meeting: Marina del Rey is in need of a community boating center. “There was definitely a theme [among tonight’s discussion]. There is a need for some center to serve the community that want to use and want access to the water in an affordable way,” Jones declared at the meeting. “There’s universal agreement that a harbor of this size, that serves so many, needs one.” Harbor Commissioner David Lumian, also known for being a renowned sailing instructor for the American Sailing Association, agreed with Jones but went a little further, stating there should be more than one center. “We need community boating centers, paddling centers. I would agree with that. I would say ‘centers’ rather than ‘a center,’ Lumian emphasized. “If you look at the great harbors around the country, you have multiple centers
at them. Boston, being a big example of that, [is] where you have three major boating community centers as well as several paddling centers.” Jones stated he and his staff are in full support of pursuing the idea of a community center adding it would serve not just the local community but the surrounding community and boaters from other counties as well as national and international visitors. “Certainly the staff side, we are very much willing to pursue [a community center], because of what we feel it could provide to Marina del Rey,” Jones affirmed. The logistics of the center will obviously need to be vetted. “What that center will look like, how it will operate, where it will be located…obviously details that are essential to the progress of seeing finally a center here in the harbor” is something Jones is compelled to pursue and “putting that together to compel the Board of Supervisors that there is a need and therefore will proceed focusing on a new center...” In addition to adding community centers in Marina del Rey, Lumian also recognizes a need for a tall ship presence in the harbor. “I’d like to see a tall ship program in Marina del Rey,” Lumian stated. “It gives a great opportunity for kids to come in and do scientific education as well as [get] practical experience on the water. It also could provide evening and weekend cruises for tourists. I think we should explore that and see if we can do that here in Marina del Rey.” The Small Craft Harbor Commission, a division of Los Angeles County’s Department of Beaches and Harbors, is the advising body for the Los Angeles Board of Supervisors in regards to matters concerning Marina del Rey.

LONG BEACH — Apparently the rules and regulations governing Long Beach’s three marinas were in need of clarification – and clarity is what city staff believes it has achieved with the most recent policy proposals approved by council members at their April 18 meeting. Long Beach’s City Council unanimously approved suggested clarifications to the municipality’s rules and regulations for marina permit holders and guests. The rules and regulations were clarified as a result of input provided by boat owners, city staff and Marine Advisory Commission (MAC) members, according to a report submitted to council members ahead of their April 18 meeting. MAC members and Department of Parks, Recreation and Marine staff reportedly held several meetings to review what elements of the city’s rules and regulations for marinas needed clarification and updating. “From these meetings, it was determined that clarification of some provisions of the rules and [regulations] would improve the safety of our marinas and ensure equitable application of policies,” city staff stated in its report to council members. Five areas within the rules and regulations were proposed for clarification, according to city staff: allow for a sublease of permits to be requested; increase the liability insurance coverage requirements for recreational vessels; clarify certain parking lot rules; require
minimum standards for vessel appearance; and, expand a provision on permit holder responsibility for costs associated with certain damages to dock boxes or power pedestals. The approved changes, by sheer coincidence, occurred about two weeks after The Log reported on parking challenges at Alamitos Bay Marina – the largest of the three marinas in Long Beach. Boaters at Alamitos Bay Marina have complained of parking permit theft, vandalism and constant competition with restaurant-goers to park their vehicles. Boat owners are permitted to park their passenger vehicles in marina-adjacent parking lots, according to the rules and regulations for marinas. “Boat owner parking is for passenger vehicles that do not transport persons for hire,” the approved rules and regulations stated. “This includes station wagons, sedans, vans, and sport utility vehicles. Parking passes shall be provided to boat owners within the guidelines/policies set by the Marine Bureau as required by availability at each marina.” Vehicles must be moved every 72 hours, the rules and regulations continued. Certain vehicles are not permitted in marina lots, such as buses, campers, camper trailers, fifth wheels, house cars and motor homes. “No vehicle in excess 21 feet in overall length may occupy any parking space within the parking lots adjacent to the Shoreline Marina or in the parking lot adjacent to Basin 4 in the Alamitos Bay Marina without the permission of the manager,” the approved rules and regulations stated. “No vehicle in excess 24 feet in overall length may occupy any parking space within the parking lots adjacent to Alamitos Bay Marina, with the exception of Basin 4.” See LONG BEACH page 15

Blips on the Radar Latest News Updates Runoff for Redondo Beach City Council Election to be held May 16 What Happened: Two candidates – including a boater – for City Council were forced to campaign for a runoff election after neither of them earned a majority vote cast during the March 7 race for elected office. Martha Barbee, the incumbent who was appointed to the District 1 council seat after it was vacated in 2016, will face off against candidate Nils Nehrenheim in the conclusive race.

Candidate Rolf Strutzenberg rounded out the final results with 9.49 percent of the vote.

practices vary from region to region the San Diego working group says it wants to focus on education. Some boaters might be unaware of local laws or where state and federal regulations overlap. Providing passenger-for-hire operators with direction of what they can and cannot do is something the working group could prioritize and achieve. One group who already has direction is the consumer. Members of the working group say consumers should be proactive and vigilant in identifying
illegal charter operations and knowing where they are spending their money. Does the charter’s captain have the necessary licenses and inspection certification? Does the vessel you are boarding have the requisite safety equipment onboard? Consumers should not be afraid to ask whether the charter or passenger-for-hire is a legitimate operation. Suspect answers to questions of paperwork or legitimacy should raise red flags to the consumer, officials anywhere will tell consumers. Anyone

suspected of running an illegal charter or passenger-for-hire should immediately be reported to the authorities, members of the working group stated. Passengers are never held liable for illegal charters or passenger-for-hire operations. The working group in San Diego, at the end of the day, hopes to level the playing field. There are plenty of operators playing by the rules, members of the working group said. Why should they struggle to stay afloat at the expense of another charter operation skirting the rules, the working group’s members pointed out? So what can customers and vessel operators alike do to limit the existence of illegal charters or passenger-for-hire operations out of San Diego Bay or any other harbor? Staff from the Coast Guard, Port of San Diego and Harbor Police Department all said vessel operators should be aware of what they are doing. Consumers should ask questions of any vessel operator. Both parties should be in constant contact with law enforcement and let them know what’s happening on the water, the working group’s members stated. In the meantime federal and regional officials hope to ramp up educational efforts to inform consumers what signs they should pay attention to in determining whether they’ve boarded an illegal charter or passenger-for-hire vessel.

Boating activities at Santa Barbara Harbor should be able to continue without interruption as the navigational channels are cleared of shoaling.
No need to dredge: the spring cycle is complete in Santa Barbara Harbor In other News: Harbor Commission seeks to fill two vacancies. By Nina K. Jussila SANTA BARBARA — Santa Barbara Harbor is ready for boaters to cruise in and out of its harbor following the completion of its spring cycle dredging, it was announced April 20. Meanwhile, the city’s Harbor Commission hopes to have two new members by summer. February storms created ocean swells and shifting sands resulting in a partial closure of the harbor channel in Santa Barbara. The Log, in early March, reported shallow waters and a safety zone designation in Santa Barbara Harbor. Large boats were advised to exit or enter the harbor only during high tide. “The spring cycle dredging started three weeks early [this year and] removed 130,000 cubic yards to open up a narrow channel,” Waterfront Facilities Manager Karl Treiberg told commissioners at their April 20 meeting. “Because they dredged up so much storm debris, they had to shut down for repairs. Dredging resumed two weeks later on April 10.” Treiberg added dredge work continued through April 19, with the dredging company removing 205,000 cubic yards of sediment. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) had awarded Pacific Dredge with a three-year contract for dredging Santa Barbara Harbor. This is year one of the three-year contract for the spring cycle, according to Treiberg. West Beach in Santa Barbara has required “chronic shoaling over the
years,” Treiberg also mentioned. The Waterfront Facilities Department has been working with an agency called Beach Erosion Authority for Clean Oceans and Nourishment, otherwise known as BEACON. A grant application was put together with Channel Islands, Ventura and Santa Barbara Harbors. “We put together a grant application for a total of about $2 million for the three harbors [Channel Islands, Ventura and Santa Barbara Harbors] to dredge these areas that are either in the sand traps or outside the responsibility of the Corps of Engineers,” Treiberg stated at the meeting. Santa Barbara Harbor is seeking $460,000 of the $2 million request, according to the multi-agency grant application. Whether the application will be approved and the funds be made available won’t be known until 2018. “The earliest the dredging from the funds that may become available is Fall 2018,” Treiberg stated. On another topic of discussion, the Santa Barbara Harbor Commission is currently looking to fill two vacancies on its commission. Five people currently serve on the dais. “The applicants must be city residents, registered voters [and] 18 or older,” Waterfront Director Scott Riedman stated. The applicants also need to be available on the third Thursday of each month for commission meetings at Santa Barbara City Hall starting at 6:30 p.m. The application deadline was May 1. Interviews are being held by the City Council on May 9, 16 and 23. Final selections will be made on June 6.

Are water uses in Newport Harbor too fast and furious?
A Newport Beach City Council member said a “river mentality” is slowly but surely permeating across the local harbor. A sergeant with the local Harbor Patrol, however, disagreed with the council member’s assessment.
By Nina K. Jussila NEWPORT BEACH — “Fast and Furious,” a film featuring a subculture of speeding cars and loud music, just released its most recent installment out in theaters this spring. Is a version of “Fast and Furious” playing out on our local waters? With more and more users of various watercrafts out on the water, are some boaters violating the speed limit and going too fast? Boaters are not illegally racing. However, in the opinion of Newport Beach City Council member Brad Avery, a subculture on the water is developing in the city’s harbor. “I’ve noticed the harbor is moving toward more of a river mentality in terms of some user groups,” Avery stated at a recent City Council meeting in regards to his observation. There are more users in our harbors than ever before. Weekends, holidays and summer are especially busy on the water with people boating, kayaking, paddleboarding, partying and some possibly going too fast. “Over the weekends and in the summer, there are more party boats. There are charter boats [and] there are rental boats where you have groups of people having a good time. They are drinking alcohol. Now and then they’re playing the music pretty loud,” Avery asserted. “It’s not a big deal, but on the other hand, it is a residential harbor.” Newport Harbor is rather unique as it is both a residential and recreational boating marina, surrounded by homes
on the water and a plethora of private docks. Avery deems the harbor as a place for everyone to enjoy whether on a powerboat, sailboat, paddleboard, kayak or other watercraft. “The more people that are around, the more respectful people have got to be. People need to be more respectful of their noise, and their wake and their speed because it has more impact on others,” Avery stated. If homeowners or other boaters notice speeding boats or hear blasting music from stereo systems on boats, he recommends calling the Orange County Harbor Patrol. The Log reached out to Harbor Patrol and inquired if they receive calls from residents complaining about boats blaring music while passing waterfront homes. Harbor Patrol Sgt. Steve Marble said
they get calls from residents complaining about noise, but the noise is coming from sea lions sitting on boats. Sgt. Marble did say noise ordinance violations usually occur during the Fourth of July holiday weekend, but it is nothing compared to the river. As someone who has spent time on the Colorado River, says to Sgt. Marble, the river has a lot more of a party atmosphere on holiday weekends and does not compare to Newport Harbor. “It is difficult to find somebody who is actually intoxicated and drank driving a boat, because everybody’s swerving anyway,” Sgt. Marble pointed out. One factor both Avery and Sgt. Marble agree on is the educational stance. Both want to educate people on the “rules of the road.” “We don’t write too many citations. We do a lot of stopping people

Third audit report on Dana Point Harbor operations released Orange County AuditorController finds control or efficiency in eight reviewed categories.
SANTA ANA — Dana Point Harbor could have a new manager soon, but not before county officials published the third of a series of audit reports analyzing the venues operations in 2015 and 2016. A fourth audit report was released on May 3; details of the report will be on thelog.com. The Orange County AuditorController’s office completed its audit review of Dana Point Harbor’s Special Revenue Fund 108 and found control or efficiency in a cost analysis of marina management companies and areas related to parking enforcement services and facility rentals. No recommendations or findings were identified in three of the audit report’s four objectives. The one finding of efficiency and effectiveness: Orange County officials are reportedly addressing a recommendation made in a 2013-14 grand jury report. County officials, according to the audit report, were specifically asked by a grand jury to conduct a “cost analysis for the efficiency of operating two marina management companies under two separate operating agreements with the county that duplicate services for boaters.” “Our audit found that the county is in the process of addressing this recommendation,” Auditor-Controller staff stated in its audit report. The cost analysis, according to a county response in the audit report, would be completed once O.C. Parks selects a developer to form a publicprivate partnership for the harbor

The third of four planned audit reports reviewing operations at Dana Point Harbor was released in late April and did not find any shortcomings. Release of the third audit report is possibly coincided with the planned hiring of a new Dana Point Harbor manager.
revitalization project. “O.C. Parks informed us they will continue to evaluate various options for operating the East Basin and West Basin marinas while reviewing the [Request for Qualifications],” Auditor-Controller staff stated in the audit report. “As such, it appears to be reasonable and cost-effective to delay conducting a cost analysis over managing the two marinas until the [publicprivate partnership] is formed and/ or when the current contract for the East Basin approaches conclusion [in 2021].” The audit report’s three other objectives were: ensure labor costs were properly managed; evaluate internal
controls of a specific vendor payment; and, determine whether administration of the harbor’s special revenue fund was effective and efficient. Auditor-Controller staff did not find any flags in these three areas, according to the audit report. The third audit report also found control findings in seven areas of management of parking enforcement in the harbor and rental facilities at O.C. Sailing and Events Center. County officials were asked to look into formalizing an agreement with the Sheriff’s Department to manage parking enforcement services, track the amount of time officers spend on patrolling the harbor area and establish greater consistency between actual and proposed expenses, among other suggestions. O.C. Parks concurred with each of the suggestions. Auditor-Controller Eric Woolery and his staff reviewed Dana Point Harbor’s special fund between Jan. 1, 2015 and Dec. 31, 2015. Dana Point Harbor’s Special Revenue Fund 108, according to the audit report, establishes accountability “for general government financial resources that are restricted by law or contractual agreement to specific purposes other than debt service or major capital projects.” “Fund 108 is the operating fund for [Dana Point Harbor] and is a nonmajor special revenue fund in the County’s accounting system,” AuditorController staff stated in the audit report. “All operating activities are
recorded in this fund. Monies received in Fund 108 shall be expended only ‘for the promotion and accommodation of commerce, navigation, and fisheries, for the protection of the lands within boundaries of the cities and counties, and for the promotion, accommodation, establishment, improvement, operation, and maintenance of the public recreational beaches and coastline for the benefit for all the people of the State.’” The fund balance, as of Dec. 31, 2015, was $64,005,015; reported expenditures were $21,571,545. The fund’s revenues for the year ending Dec. 31, 2015 were $27,307,494. The first audit report, which found abuse of an unauthorized hotel discount program by county employees, was published in May 2016 and coincided with the departure of Brad Gross as director of an independent Dana Point Harbor department. A second audit report was published in March of this year found significant control weaknesses of vendor operations at Dana Point Harbor. The report was released shortly after The Log inquired about possible delays in the auditing process. Meanwhile sources indicated O.C. Parks was on the verge of hiring a new Dana Point Harbor manager, yet no announcements were made as of press time. Former harbor director Brad Gross, whose tenure overlapped with the time periods reviewed by the Auditor-Controller, was reportedly one of the candidates interviewed.

The first vessel built with some of the new features, the future USS New Jersey, is expected to be delivered to the Navy in 2021. The Navy lifted its ban on women on submarines in 2010, starting with officers. About 80 female officers and roughly 50 enlisted women are now serving on subs, and their numbers are expected to climb into the hundreds over the next few years. For now, the Navy is retrofitting existing subs with extra doors and designated washrooms to accommodate women. Electric Boat in Groton, Connecticut, is at work on a redesign of the Navy’s Virginiaclass fast-attack subs and is also developing a brand-new class of ballistic-missile submarines, relying on body measurements for both men and women.

Coast Guard helps keep track of boats with stickers BURLINGTON, Vermont (AP) — The United States Coast Guard has a new colorful solution to the problem of the tide washing boats away. Coast Guard officials tell WPTZ-TV that they have been handing out orange identification stickers in preparation for boating season. Matt Harris, a spokesperson for the Coast Guard, explains that once the sticker is attached to a canoe or a kayak, they will work like luggage tags. Harris says that Coast Guard will be able to find the boat and return it to its owner if the tide washes it away. Authorities say the stickers also help to quickly identify areas where boaters have fallen in and need to be rescued.
Navy bans vaping on ships after explosions, burns NORFOLK, Virginia (AP) — The U.S. Navy is banning vaping on ships after at least a dozen reports of explosions and injuries. Naval commanders said in a statement that the temporary electronic cigarette policy aims to protect sailors and the fleet. Officials cited overheated batteries in vaping equipment as the problem. Explosions have led to fires, first-degree burns and facial disfigurement. During a recent eight-month stretch, 12 incidents put sailors out of work for a combined 77 days. Injuries also restricted some to light duty for a total of five months. The policy goes into effect May 14, but sailors at sea can request extensions. The Navy says it will make a final determination on e-cigarettes after more analysis. Vaping will still be allowed in designated areas on land.

The San Francisco Chronicle reports two helicopters, a plane, and a National Guard rescue team made the rescue. The man was airlifted to a hospital. His condition and the nature of his injuries were not available. His name was not released. Authorities say the Gutsy Lady 4 was more than 1,000 miles west of the San Francisco Bay Area when the National Guard accepted the rescue mission after a distress call from the trawler. The National Guard then dropped a medical bundle from the plane to help stabilize the injured crew member. That helped and the Gutsy Lady 4 then set a quick pace back toward California. Rescuers later reached him and airlifted him to the hospital.

Council member Jeannine Pearce, interestingly enough, told city staff she received many complaints about parking at local marinas. Pearce’s district includes Rainbow Harbor and Shoreline marinas. Marine Bureau Manager Elvira Hallinan said many boaters were not moving their large vehicles, which was a violation of the city’s municipal code. The rules and regulations, accordingly, were adjusted to allow for increased regulation of parking rules, particularly with permitted vehicle size and remaining in stalls long-term. “Right now I have several boat owners who have RVs that they park, or
box trucks that they basically use as closets because they’re liveaboards. These vehicles never move and it’s become an issue [when it comes to] sweeping the parking lots,” Hallinan told the City Council. “These box trucks and campers and RVs are dilapidated and make the marina look trashy.” Hallinan added exceptions could be made to the 72-hour parking limits for boaters who navigate to places such as Catalina Island for more than three days. The boater would have to make arrangements with the city before leaving in order to receive an accommodation. The approved rules and regulations will be distributed to boaters and slip permit holders by June 1, according to city staff.

In agreeing to the lease extension, Helgren’s also agreed to vacate the premises. By Nina K. Jussila OCEANSIDE — As one sportfishing business tries to hold on to the landing it’s occupied for the past 38 years, another multi-business venture is looking to offer a wide-range of services in Oceanside Harbor. City officials continue negotiations with Helgren’s Sportfishing and the SEA Center in an attempt to make both parties “comfortable” in its marina. Oceanside’s City Council extended Helgren’s lease, which was set to expire May 5, through Nov. 30 to give all parties involved more time to make concessions. The extension and new lease agreement also came with a couple stipulations: Helgren’s representatives agreed to have an exclusivity clause removed and to vacate the premises by the end of November. The city initially approved a Request for Proposals (RFP) in August 2016 to allow Oceanside SEA Center – or Science, Education and Adventure Center – to develop its business upon Helgren’s lease expiring. Joseph Helgren, soon after the City Council approved the RFP, disputed the decision through his attorney. Negotiations to determine the final fate of Helgren’s Landing have since been ongoing. Capt. Joe Cacciola’s Sea Star Sportfishing, Capt. Ernie Prieto’s Chubasco Sportfishing and the Pfleger Institute of Environmental Research (PIER) proposed building Oceanside SEA Center at the Helgren’s Landing site to offer visitors a multifaceted experience on the ocean. The center would offer sportfishing, marine education and environmental conservation. “The SEA Center partners and even our supporters were all fine with the council extending their lease through the end of November,” Cacciola told The Log. “The city decided they needed more time plus we thought it was a gesture of goodwill to give Helgren’s the opportunity to continue to operate during the most profitable time of the year...I think it was a win-win. A win for Helgren’s just because they get another seven months of high season instead of having to move out on the fifth of May.” The City Council previously attempted to have both parties share the landing space. “A couple months ago, they wanted to give us 25 percent of our building, have us put $50,000 worth of improvements in and give the other 75 percent to the SEA Center, which would be Pfleger Institute, Chubasco and Joe,” Helgren informed The Log.
Helgren said he was fine with the offer. The terms, however, were not satisfactory to Cacciola and his partners. “Right from the beginning, we needed enough dock space and we needed enough land space to make this whole project viable. If you try to downsize it, it really isn’t going to work properly,” Cacciola explained. Oceanside Adventures General Manager Donna Kalez believes the city’s attempt to find a way for all the parties involved to make use of the Helgren’s Landing location might be an impossible task. “I feel that sharing the landing at this point is going to be very hard [as there] are three different operations that want to share the building. I just don’t see how that will work ... and I have to think that Oceanside will want to keep Helgren’s in that same location. If the city wants an aquarium it should go where the Coast Guard dock is where the Sea Star Mr. Joe Cacciola has already been operating,” Kalez stated. The SEA Center’s plans include sportfishing, research as well as educational programs such as “vessel-based floating classrooms, touch-tank and aquaria-based learning platforms,” as stated in the proposal. The head of Visit Oceanside, a company promoting tourism to San Diego County’s northernmost city, said plans for the SEA Center, which would include sportfishing and charter activities, floating classrooms, touch tanks, research and public art, would be a great draw. “We are in an experience economy right now; consumers want destinations that offer new positive experiences and creative opportunities to explore and learn. The harbor has a lot of potential to offer a variety of adventures for everyone,” Leslee Gaul, President and CEO of Visit Oceanside, wrote in an email response to The Log. “I think the Sea Center would be a positive experience to have in the harbor for our local community and guests.”

$250,000 to prepare a plan to address sea level rise. Local governments within a coastal zone were also directed to prepare a Local Coastal Program under the 2014 law. The program must include assurances of “maximum public access to the coast and public recreation areas.” The Assembly’s legislative staff analyzed AB 184 three times through mid-April. An analysis by legislative staff of the Assembly’s Appropriations Committee identified the Planning for Sea Level Rise Database as an educational tool. “The database is an educational tool that is beneficial to the state, local governments, and the public by show-
Both Helgren and Cacciola expect another decision to be made in the next few weeks, and Cacciola is anticipating the SEA Center to be situated at the landing by December. “The city attorney announced within the [April 19 City Council] meeting… that the city attorney will be coming back to the council with both the SEA Center’s lease and Helgren’s new lease,” Cacciola said. “Theoretically, Dec. 1 [is when the SEA Center could move in to the premises], because Helgren’s lease Once-approved plans to convert Helgren’s Landing into a destination promoting extension ends maritime education and science were put on hold after the Oceanside City Council extended Helgren’s Sportfishing’s lease through November.

ing actions taken to address sea level rise, enabling a more effective and coordinated response,” the Assembly Appropriations Committee’s legislative analysis stated. “To be an effective tool, the database must be current and is required to be updated biannually.” Climate change and sea level rise are already being addressed by several public agencies within the state. In August 2015 the California Coastal Commission adopted a Sea Level Rise Policy Guidance document, which, according to the Assembly’s legislative staff, “provides an overview of best available science on sea level rise for California and recommends steps for addressing sea level rise in [the commission’s] planning and regulatory actions.”
The most recent legislative analysis of AB 184 identified sea level rise as one of California’s substantive climate risks. “Climate risks in California include sea level rise, changes in precipitation that increase the risk of both drought and flooding, and increases in temperatures that can affect air quality and habitat,” the Assembly’s legislative staff stated in an April 13 analysis. “According to Ocean Protection Council, climate change has already caused 8 inches of sea level rise at the San Francisco tidal gauge and scientists project an additional 3 to 5.5 feet or more of rising sea levels by 2100, within the lifetime of children born today. Assembly Bill 2516, which was signed into law in 2014, established the Planning for Sea Level Rise Database.

Dock Lines With Capt. Nicole Tips on buying the right boat Story and photo by Capt. Nicole Sours Larson Now that boating season is upon us, are you considering buying a boat, perhaps your very first? Are you asking yourself the right questions before you take the plunge? Buying a boat is a major investment, not just of money but also time and commitment. Remember that a boat often represents a significant lifestyle change. Is your significant other supportive? What about your kids? I’ve seen many marriages and families flounder over commitment to a boat. And remember the cost of the boat goes beyond the purchase price. Can you afford the full cost of owning a boat? Be realistic about your skill level,
extensive a galley do you need? The questions don’t stop there. Do you prefer sail or power? Before you initiate a serious search, look at your budget for your boat. One older couple, with no boating experience, visited our fairly complex Hatteras and made us an offer of one-quarter the listing price, explaining that “was all the money” they had. While trying not to be offended, we explained that the purchase price is just the beginning. Other required outlays include dockage or trailer expenses, insurance, property taxes, fuel (even for sailboats), maintenance and repairs, normal wear and tear and routine replacement of marine-grade parts and equipment upgrades. And don’t forget, for larger boats, to plan for costs of diving services and boat washers, if you don’t do it

knowledge, needs and aspirations — and especially about your budget. Don’t rush into purchasing a boat before you’re sure of what you want, understand and can afford. One family at our Maryland marina actually bought four boats in one year because they didn’t think things through. Much of what I learned about boat buying came from selling our old Hatteras. Arv and I often helped our broker show it to prospective buyers, who demonstrated the basic questions novice buyers face. How do you know what kind of boat to buy? And how do you identify the right boat for you and your family? I’m assuming you have at least minimal familiarity from enjoying friends’ vessels. Start by deciding how you’ll use the boat and list the features important to you. Is this a starter boat for you, with plans to upgrade eventually? A condoon-the-water, whether for living aboard or regular visits? A speedboat to take kids waterskiing? A fishing boat for you and your buddies? A long-range cruiser? A runabout for short jaunts? Day sailing? Do you plan to entertain friends? Will you or your guests sleep over? And how
yourself. Consider your knowledge and skill level, too. How much do you know about operating and maintaining a boat? Can you do basic maintenance and repairs yourself or will you need to call a skilled mechanic or other marine professional for routine maintenance and repairs? Will you require a captain or instructor to operate the boat or teach you basic operations and maintenance? Once you assess both your budget and capabilities, you’re ready to look at boat size and features. Make a list of all the features important to you, breaking them into “essentials,”“desirables” and “non-essentials.” A great way to discover “your” boat is to look at different types at boat shows -- where you’ll also meet many brokers and salespeople. If you’re a true novice, find a knowledgeable friend, captain or broker to help in the search. Whatever you do, don’t let anyone talk you into buying a boat you’re not sure about or don’t fully understand. Watch for my upcoming column exploring how to select a reliable, compatible boat broker.

NOAA Fisheries Enforcement By Parimal M. Rohit The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) released its latest annual report on April 5, highlighting the Office of Law Enforcement’s budgetary and regulatory numbers for 2016. Notable obser-
vations include a steady decline in law enforcement staffing between 2010 and 2016 and a lion’s share of NOAA’s budget spent on enforcement and surveillance. Also of note is the relatively small staff managing NOAA’s West Coast Division, which comprises of three states and 1,293 miles of Pacific Ocean coastline.

Comments From page 6
witch hunt here. We don’t know and you have not presented all of the facts of the County Audit. Exactly what degree of “lack of institutional control on his watch” was there and was he personally responsible for. Again, 2 sides to every story. When I read in the OC Register that Brad had quit, retired or whatever over this I sincerely believe he did so because he was pissed off about this petty Audit that went out of its way to find anything out of order just to justify their existence. Just my opinion. I know most of the vendors in the harbor and I have never heard anything negative about Brad Gross in all the years he has been involved. If the worst thing all politicians or public servants, past present or future, ever did was abuse a hotel discount this world would be a much better place. I do not know Brad and have never spoken to him. However, if he were to come back in the same capacity I think the County should offer him a lifetime discount to the hotel, put a statue of him at the harbor entrance and have an annual parade in his honor. “Failing to exercise institutional control of the hotel discount program.” REALLY??!! Brad did a great job before and he’ll do an even better job in the future. I hope he gets it and personally invites you to all future public meeting in Dana Point. I love reading The Log and will continue to do so. I just hope it focuses more on informative and factual articles where readers can form their own opinions and less op/ed stuff. Maybe do an article on the County’s “Mission Statement” for the harbor versus the revitalization plan. Thanks! Steve Richardson
Gross poorly manages Mr. Richardson, Please read all the audit reports. This is not about Hotel Discounts. Brad Gross was not managing any of the operating agreements as he was tasked to. That was his main job. No cash controls, no documentation, poor financial accounting, etc. He did not pay attention to anything, or looked the other way. Which was it? At any rate, he did not perform his duties. The Chamber of Commerce gave him an honor that he was not deserving of. He is a very poor business manager, period. The Chamber award was for effectively managing two large marinas, launch ramp and dry storage operations, the harbor’s support facilities and its commercial component. Well, that’s what we all assumed. The Audits prove otherwise. Thank you Log for keeping us informed as to the facts. Keep it up please! Charles Mirich
Re: Boat launch ramp vendor contract approved despite protest (April 7-20 issue)
Build the dock and the wall Castellanos should be ashamed of himself! To politicize something like this project, simply because his view is different than that of the current presidential administration is shameful.
The Log • May 5 - 18, 2017 • 19
We need the wall. Good fences make good neighbors. No “Californians” are going to be harmed by building it. No cross border trade or economies will be affected. Stopping the flow of ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS is what the wall will control, not the legal and lawful trades or crossings. Mr. Castellanos knows this, but found it necessary to try and make a political point. Unfortunately (or fortunately!), it didn’t work. Hooray for R.E. Staite Construction!! Alan M.
Go back to Mexico, Castellanos I totally agree with you Alan, if Castellanos is so concerned with Mexico I wish he and his kind would relocate there. But
that won’t happen just like all the movie stars that threatened to move if President Trump won. I would be more than willing to contribute to that cause, I would even take time off of work to personally move them! Richard

By Nina K. Jussila AVALON — Many Southern California boaters venture over to Catalina Island to escape from the hustle and bustle of the mainland. Just to be out cruising or sailing in the open water is relaxing enough, especially on a beautiful sunny day typical for Southern California, but to be able to moor a vessel in Avalon and visit a quaint island is just what some people need to unwind. In fact, the name “Avalon” comes from a poem describing a place for healing. George Shatto, who acquired Catalina Island in 1887, struggled to come up with a name for the island’s only town. Shatto apparently decided against naming the town after himself, according to a Santa Catalina Island Co. blog. Avalon was ultimately given her name by Etta Whitney, Shatto’s sisterin-law. At the time, she was reading “Idylls of a King” by the English poet Alfred Lord Tennyson. One of the verses tells the tale of King Arthur being wounded after a battle and going to the “island-valley of Avilion,” a “deep-meadowed, happy, fair with orchard lawns…crowned with summer sea” to heal from his wounds. “To the island-valley of Avilion; Where falls not hail, or rain, or any

to be mindful of is the speed limit, according to Avery. This is not just a rule for Newport Harbor. This rule applies to any harbor. The maximum speed limit is 5 knots in the harbor. However, the speed limit is dependent on the conditions out on the water and may require going less than 5 knots. If the harbor or canal is congested, boaters must slow down and be aware
snow, nor ever wind blows loudly; but it lies deep-meadowed, happy, fair with orchard lawns and bowery hollows crowned with summer sea, where I will heal me of my grievous wound,” the specific passage read. The passage inspired Whitney to recommend “Avalon,” as the island town’s name. City leaders kept the name of Avalon when incorporated in 1913 – almost 70 years after it became a part of the United States. Avalon Harbor has since become an The city of Avalon was named after an entry in “Idylls of a King,” a poem written by English poet Alfred Lord Tennyson. George Shatto, who acquired Catalina Island in 1887, did not want to use his last name for the island’s only town. It was his sister-in-law oasis for boaters.

of kayakers, paddleboards and other vessels on the water. This is not just to avoid creating a wake, Avery mentioned, but to avoid accidents from occurring. “When I first was on the harbor, it was primarily residents and people who kept boats here that were on the harbor; so, they were more in tune with the community. They had more experience operating boats. Now the majority of the boats on the harbor are rental boats. That wasn’t true 30 to 40 years
ago. It was a gradual increase,” Avery stated. Sgt. Marble hasn’t noticed an increase in boating violations. In fact, he believes it is getting better. The Log asked Sgt. Marble what the most common violation is on the harbor. “I don’t have those stats in front of me to give you the exact, but I would say probably speeding [and] registration violations,” Sgt. Marble answered. The city of Newport Beach is con-
sidering adding some staff to also help educate people on the water and help raise awareness. “We want to make the harbor more welcoming for all visitors and make it a more pleasant experience for residents when they are out on their decks in the evenings and just when people go down the harbor,” Avery said. “We want the harbor be an inviting place to come down and recreate. We just ask people to respect the boating laws and the neighbors.”

City Council grants one of the appointees an extended term; renaming of park for Ralph Rodheim delayed. By Nina K. Jussila NEWPORT BEACH — And then there were two. The Newport Beach Harbor Commission is whole again after the local City Council whittled a large candidate pool down to two finalists on April 25. Council members selected Scott Cunningham and John Drayton to succeed former commissioners Brad Avery and Joe Stapleton. Avery vacated his Harbor Commission seat shortly after he was elected to the City Council in November 2016. The council selected Drayton to fill his vacancy. Cunningham succeeded Stapleton, the latter of whom was appointed to Newport Beach’s Finance Committee. Stapleton’s term on the Harbor Commission was set to expire on June 30, yet the council voted to allow Cunningham to serve out the remainder of this term and continue for a full four-year term beginning July 1. Cunningham’s term, accordingly, will be two months longer than the norm. Voting took place in several rounds, with Cunningham garnering unanimous council support at the outset.
Each of the remaining five candidates received at least one vote in the next round of voting. Council members Avery and Marshall “Duffy” Duffield both voted for John Drayton. Mayor Kevin Muldoon and Council member Scott Peotter voted for Ira Beer. Council member Diane Dixon cast her vote for Jamshed Dastur. Council member Will O’Neill voted for Paul Prioleauto. Drayton and Beer, as the two candidates with two votes each, were the finalists in the last round of voting. A majority of the council voted for Drayton. Cunningham’s term continues through June 2021. “Drayton will serve out the balance of Brad Avery’s term and will be eligible for reappointment to a second term at June 30, 2019,” Newport Beach Harbor Commission Chair Paul Blank said. Drayton spent his childhood sailing in the Newport Harbor. He attended Newport Harbor High School where he participated in the sailing team and continued sailing through Tufts University. He is a member of the Newport Harbor Yacht Club and has participated in offshore sailboat races as well as dinghy races. He is the son of Phyllis Drayton, who is well known among adult sailing events and community service. “He was always a great sailor and noble competitor/gentleman in victory

and defeat. That means a lot to me and is a yardstick I use frequently,” Blank stated. Cunningham is a 17-year resident of Newport Beach and spends a great deal of time boating and paddleboarding in the harbor. He spent the past three years serving on the Beacon Bay Home Owners Association board and has a great deal of experience with RGP 54. He is actively involved in beach cleanup. “One project I am most proud of is the organization efforts to clean up the harbor beach that borders the Beacon Bay community,” Cunningham shared. “The neighbors of Beacon Bay all pitched in for the Sandman beach cleaner and groomer. Each week we clean and groom the harbor beach very similar to the large tractors that run
along the ocean front.” Also on the City Council’s April 25 agenda was the renaming of Balboa Island Park. City officials are looking to change the venue’s name to Ralph Rodheim Park. However the item was pulled from the agenda and will be reviewed by the city’s Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission. Ralph Rodheim, a Balboa Island resident and founding member of the Harbor Commission, passed away on February 5 after battling with Lou Gehrig’s disease. Rodheim, in addition to serving on the commission for 11 years, organized the Wooden Boat Festival. He was also named Newport Beach’s “Citizen of the Year” in 2010.

The Cruise Underway to Baja Rally, or CUBAR, returns this November for a 12-day, 900-mile cruise from San Diego to La Paz, Mexico. First sail is set for Nov. 7. Organizers are hosting an informational dinner about the cruise at San Diego Yacht Club on May 25.
Biannual cruising event from San Diego to La Paz returns in November. By Parimal M. Rohit SAN DIEGO — November might still be several months away but it’s not too early to start thinking about this year’s Cruise Underway to Baja Rally, or CUBAR - the 12-day, 900-mile cruise from San Diego to La Paz, Mexico. The 2017 iteration of CUBAR returns
after its standard two-year break, with first sail set for Nov. 7. Cruisers will continue to the southern tip of Baja California before turning into the Sea of Cortez and heading north toward La Paz. Cruisers are expected to arrive at La Paz on Nov. 19, but not before stopping at nearly a half dozen ports along the way. Stops include Ensenada, Turtle Bay, Magdalena Bay and San Jose del Cabo. There are opportunities to visit each city and take in the sites. Possible activities on deck for this year’s cruise
might include a Guadalupe Wine Valley tour, San Jose del Cabo Art Walk, gourmet dining at Flora Farms or cooking classes in La Paz. San Diego Yacht Club, which became the permanent host of the cruising event in 2015, will be hosting a kick-off dinner There were almost four-dozen boats registered in the most recent CUBAR and meeting for event, which was held in 2017.

Locals will crew Team Wolfhound in Norway and Sweden for country’s first entry since 1990. By Parimal M. Rohit SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA — The last United States sailing team to participate in the 11-Meter Championships was during George Bush’s presidency (the first one). It was 1990. There was no internet. Magic Johnson and Michael Jordan were still playing in the NBA. The average gas price (not adjusted for inflation) was $1.12 per gallon. Donald J. Trump – then married to Ivana – just opened the Taj Mahal hotel and casino in Atlantic City. Fast forward 27 years later, and Team USA will finally be represented again at the 11-Meter Nationals, which take place the first two weekends of September on Oslo Fjord in Norway and Lake Vätteren in Sweden. A series of two-day regattas will generally feature between 20 to 30 One-Design boats. Stacy Sinclair, Team Wolfhound’s bow and trim, said Team USA would face off against competitors from Denmark, Italy, Germany, Hungary, Norway and Sweden. All competitors will be provided with a one-design hull, though Team Wolfhound plans to arrive in Sweden with its own gear and sails. Team Wolfhound’s crew includes Transpac racer Jamie Meyer as captain, Sinclair on bow and trim, and Jenni Santoro on pit. Transpac racers Casey Schilling and John Rushing serve the crew on tactics/trim and trim, respectively. Also on the crew are Steven Schmitz (bow), Deidre Keeves (trim/runners/ pit), Rita Abraham (trim/runners) and Daina Bandziulus (trim/runners). The crew’s background, according to Sinclair, is as diverse as it is interesting. “We’re a Corinthian crew. Three of us are Flag Members at Del Rey Yacht Club, three are TransPac racers [and] I’ve done long-range boat deliveries,”
Sinclair said. “In work we are just as varied. Casey is an engineer with SpaceX, Jamie and Jennie are architects, John is a filmmaker and I am an educator and environmental scientist.” Other races Team Wolfhound plans to compete in before the 11-Meter Championships include Santa Barbara to King Harbor, ASMBYC High Point Series, CYC Sunset Series and Sundown Series. Team Wolfhound will represent the United States at the 11-Meter Nationals, held this year in Norway and Sweden. The race is The team recently spread out over a series of two-day regattas in early September. finished third in the 2016 Sunset Series - King of the Hill, third in the 2016 Berger Series PHRF B, fourth in the 2015 Berger Series PHRF B, third in the 2014 Santa Barbara to King Harbor and second in the 2013 Santa Barbara to King Harbor. Ron Holland and the International Sailing Federation (now World Sailing) built more than 120 11-Meter vessels to train sailors and crew for America’s Cup class boats. Skippers such as Paul Cayard, Gary Jobson and Jeff Madrigali have raced 11-Metter vessels, according to Sinclair. More information about Team Wolfhound, including specifications on the 11-Meter One Design, can be found on its website, which is at stacysinclair. The Team Wolfhound crew was described by one if its members as being “diverse” and “interesting.” The crew guided Team Wolfhound to several solid finishes at local races between 2013 and 2016. wixsite.com/teamwolfhound.

which cover everything from safety at sea, first aid, navigation, communications, provisioning, insurance requirements and things to do once you arrive in Mexico. “This doesn’t mean the captains have nothing to do as there is work in getting their boats ready for the nearly 900-mile cruise,” Cahill continued.
Organizers emphasize the November cruising event is an ideal opportunity to gain or tweak one’s offshore boating experience or navigation skills. “The underlying principal of CUBAR is to provide the support necessary for those that have limited or no boating experience in Mexico,” organizers stated. “It is open to anyone with a powerboat that has a minimum range of 450 miles at approximately 8 knots.
However, this event is not for someone who has never boated before, left the bay or been in [his or her] engine room.” CUBAR also raises funds for San Diego YC’s junior program. The event raised nearly $60,000 for the program, which is open to all juniors in San Diego, in 2015. Visit cubar.org for more information about the May 25 dinner meeting or to join the interest list.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) posted a notice of the NMFS finding on the official federal ruling database. Pacific bluefin tuna was one of four fish stocks to be listed as subject to overfishing or overfished, according to the April 19 federal notice. “A 2014 assessment determined that this stock was subject to overfishing and in an overfished condition,” the NMFS notice of determination stated. “This latest determination is based on a 2016 assessment conducted by the International Scientific Committee for Tuna and Tuna-like Species in the North Pacific Ocean, in conjunction with NOAA scientists.” NFMS’s determination allows section 304(i) of the Magnuson-Stevens Act to take effect. The section allows the Secretary of Commerce to take “appropriate action at the international level to end the overfishing” and “develop recommendations for domestic regulations to address the relative impact of fishing vessels of the United States on the stock” within one year of the determination. “NMFS has determined that section 304(i) of the Magnuson-Stevens Act applies because (1) the overfishing and overfished condition of Pacific bluefin tuna in the North Pacific Ocean is due largely to excessive international fishing pressure, and (2) there are no management measures (or efficiency measures) to end overfishing under an international agreement to which the United States is a party,” the NMFS notice stated. NOAA issued a final rule two days after the NMFS determination to limit
the commercial catch of Pacific bluefin tuna by United States fishing vessels for 2017 and 2018. The final rule goes into effect May 22. Federal officials formally notified Western Pacific Fishery Management Council and Pacific Fishery Management Council of the determination and “their obligations for international and domestic management under Magnuson-Stevens Act.” “The councils must develop recommendations for domestic regulations to address the relative impact of the domestic fishing fleet on the stock, and develop recommendations to the Secretary of State and Congress for international actions to end overfishing and rebuild the Pacific bluefin tuna in the North Pacific Ocean,” NMFS staff stated in the agency’s April 19 notice. Some fishing advocates, in response to federal officials state Pacific bluefin tuna are being overfished and environmental organizations stating the species is on the verge of extinction, argue the state of the predatory fish is not as dire as advertised. Federal policymakers and environmentalists are forecasting the state of Pacific bluefin tuna based on incomplete date, according to opponents of restrictions placed on the fishery. A reported published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) journal in February 2016 claimed decisions to declare Atlantic bluefin tuna as overfished and near extinction were not based on examining the entire fishery. Instead the policymaking was based upon a study of only two spawning areas, according to the study. “[The] complexity of spawning migrations questions whether there is complete independence in the dynamics of eastern and western Atlantic bluefin tuna and leads to lower estimates of the vulnerability of this species to exploitation and other anthropogenic stressors,” authors of the February 2016 Atlantic bluefin tuna report in PNAS stated. Factoring in other spawning grounds, authors of the report stated, could alter the way the fishery is man-

aged by federal officials. “Atlantic bluefin tuna support a highly contentious international fishery, and our results present an alternate life history model to inform the management of this species,” the report’s authors stated. “The implications of our work are most pronounced for western Atlantic bluefin tuna, which have a life history less vulnerable to overexploita-
tion and extinction than is currently estimated.” The PNAS-published report, whether conclusive or not, could be used to suggest NMFS, NOAA, Western Pacific Fishery Management Council and Pacific Fishery Management Council officials to alter their collective assessment of the bluefin tuna stock between East Asia and the Western United States.

Study: Overfishing becoming common on Baja’s Gulf coast A new approach should be taken to make fishing efforts more efficient, researchers say. By Parimal M. Rohit BAJA CALIFORNIA — Anglers and fishers on small boats are overcrowding sections of Baja California’s Sea of Cortez coast, causing overfishing and inefficient catch rates, according to a Scripps Institution of Oceanography study published April 13. The scientific study suggested an alternative method of fishing to allow for greater catch rates and sustained growth of the industry. Researchers with University of California, San Diego’s Scripps Institution of Oceanography specifically focused on analyzing fishing efforts in data-poor regions. “[An estimated] 17,839 boats were operating in an area that can only sustain 13,277 boats to maximize the benefits of catching more fish per trip,” the Scripps Institution study found. An oversaturation of boats in the specific areas of Baja California’s east coast translates into anglers and fishers catching less fish, the study’s lead author stated. “The current overcapacity of boats means that fishermen are working harder to catch fewer fish,” Andrew F. Johnson, the study’s lead author and postdoctoral scholar Scripps Institution’s Gulf of California Marine Program, stated. The study found a high concentration of fishing activity in Cabo San Lucas, La Paz, San Felipe and Santa Clara. Researchers say current fishing activity is putting a heavy strain on a region where sportfishing, diving and other ocean or marine activities are popular. However overfishing can be reduced, if not reversed, if fisheries combine a review of the number of boats out at sea (and amount of fish they land) with predictive analyses. “If [predicted] estimates are compared to total commercial fisheries landings, our method can also be used to: 1) predict the present amount of fish biomass extraction from areas of previously unknown activity; 2) evaluate the potential for future growth in a fishery; and 3) provide an estimate of the most cost-effective number of fishing boats per area without diminishing returns,”
authors of the Scripps study stated. “This new method of effort estimation moves us away from data-intensive and laborious methods of investigating this important measure. Our method predicts the ecological impacts of increasingly concentrated fishing efforts, as well as the economic potential for future expansion,” the study’s authors continued. Regulating the fishing industry, both domestically and internationally, has been in a contentious state in recent years. Fisheries are faced with increased demand for seafood, but the supply of popular (profitable?) catches have been difficult to find or in jeopardy of being placed on an endangered species list. Meanwhile regional, federal and international fishery management agencies or collaborations have been imposing stricter regulations on fishing operations. Many recreational fishers, in turn, stated they’re unfairly restricted during fishing trips as a result of stricter policy measures. Meanwhile fisheries began exploring alternative solutions to sustain their stocks, such as building fish pens just off the coast of Ensenada. “Global marine fisheries are under pressure from increasing demands for protein, driven by rapidly growing human populations. Many commercial stocks remain either fully or over-exploited and show continued declines, whilst rules and regulations governing them continue to tighten, driving new fisheries development,” authors of the Scripps study stated in their report. Solving overfishing could come down to predictive practices and sustained management, according to the Scripps study. “Fisheries biomass is often extracted from areas only known by fishers themselves, and is recorded at the point of landing or where the first sale of the catch is made. For this reason, fishing locations often remain elusive, off the radar and difficult to police,” authors of the Scripps study stated. “Understanding where fish are caught has never been more important. The amount of fishing (the effort) and the area over which fishing potentially takes place (the range) are critical measures for successful fisheries management and making realistic predictions about the wider ecological consequences of fishing, although for some specific fishery scenarios this is not always the case.”

Top catch smokes the competition at 42nd annual Halibut Derby By Parimal M. Rohit MARINA DEL REY — A 27.2-pound California halibut catch was good enough to give Reggie Beauvais first place honors at this year’s Marina del Rey Halibut Derby, which was held April 29 and 30 at Burton Chace Park in Marina Del Rey. Beauvais’s catch was the largest by a long shot – more than three times the size of the second largest halibut caught during the two-day fishing tournament. The 42nd annual Marina del Rey Halibut Derby drew 84 competitive anglers this year – down from the 125 participants in the 2015 iteration of the tournament but up from the 40 registered competitors of 2014. Conditions were windy during the two-day tournament, but anglers still hit the water to target halibut, white sea bass and yellowtail. Most of the fish caught were released alive. Anglers were rewarded with a bonus for releasing their respective catches alive. Steve Legere finished the tourna-
ment in second place with his 8.2-pound bag of live calico bass. Rounding out the top five were Eddie Flores (7.9-pound California halibut), Oleg Astanov (7.5-pound California halibut) and Miguel Zamora (6.4pound California halibut). Legere’s calicos were released at the weigh-in dock. Flores, Astanov and Zamora were all given a 25 percent live bonus for their halibut catches. Reggie Beauvais won the 2017 Marina del Rey Halibut Derby. He reeled in a The derby 27.2-pound California halibut, the only double-digit catch of the fishing tournament.

and Steven Legere) came in at third place with 8.2 combined pounds. Some of the prizes given away to the top five winners included a three-day offshore fishing expedition and trips to Alaska and La Paz. In addition to competing for catches, the participating anglers also helped raise money for the Marina del Rey Anglers’ Youth Fishing Program and White Sea Bass Grow Out Program, which help the local angling organization to take more than 500 at-risk and disabled children fishing every year. The program also releases 10,000 juvenile white sea bass annually. Sitka Point Lodge, Tailhunter International and Vagabond Sportfishing provided prizes for the top three finishes. All participants were offered a BBQ lunch from Outback Catering. Krystyn Lambert was this year’s Miss Halibut. Anglers had a field day during the 37th annual Marina del Rey Halibut Derby when the top five catches on the leader board weighed more than 36 pounds. The weigh-ins of the top three catches were 48.8, 46.6 and 39.3 pounds, respectively. Visit halibutderby.com for more information about the derby.

(Clockwise from top left) Anglers aboard Liberty Sportfishing reeled in eight bluefin tuna on an April 24 jaunt out of Fisherman’s Landing. The tuna were in the 20- to 30-pound class. A monster sea bass was the highlighted catch for 29 anglers aboard Thunderbird out of Davey’s Locker. Anglers reeled in 13 yellowtail in addition to the one white sea bass. Anglers up on Santa Barbara continue to show off their rockfish catches, such as this one brought over the rails of Stardust during a half-day jaunt on April 19. Meanwhile Dana Wharf Sportfishing posted a photo of this 11-pound sheephead caught aboard Clemente’s half-day-trip on Aug. 24. The total count for Clemente anglers that day was 15 calico bass, 12 sand bass, four sheephead and one sculpin, with 40 bass successfully released.

What’s Up?: Members of the State Senate’s Natural Resources and Water Committee unanimously voted in favor of Senate Bill 187 (SB 187), the proposal adjusting the way California issues sportsfishing licenses to anglers, during an April 25 hearing. State Sen. Tom Berryhill, R-Twain Harte, introduced SB 187 earlier this year; the bill would eliminate California’s practice of issuing sportfishing licenses on a calendar-year system and instead allow anglers to maintain active fishing permits for 12 months after the purchase date. “Currently, fishing licenses are based on a calendar-year cycle, with no extra time or prorated rates given for purchases made later in the season,” Berryhill’s staff said in a released statement about the sportfishing licenses bill. “SB 187, which is supported by groups representing nearly every type of Californian, would make fishing licenses valid for 12 months from the time of the purchase. A legislative analysis stated sportfishing participation in California has declined steadily during the past 40 years.
“In the 1970s and into the early 1980s, resident annual sportfishing license sales averaged about … 2.2 million. By 1990, sales were reduced to about 1.5 million,” the Natural Resources and Water Committee staff stated in its legislative analysis. “From 2000 [to] 2010 approximately … 1.2 million licenses were sold annually. The sportfishing license sales have declined despite increasing population over the time period.” Bottom Line: There are 11 states currently offering 12-month sportfishing licenses: Arizona, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, New York, North Carolina, South Carolina, Texas, Utah and Virginia. “According to the Senate Natural Resources and Water Committee analysis for SB 583 (2013), some of the states that switched from calendar year to 12 consecutive month annual sport fishing licenses experienced a decline in sportfishing license revenues at least in part attributable to the change. Some states have increased revenues,” the legislative analysis of SB 187 stated. Alabama experimented with a 12-month sportfishing license and reverted back to a calendar-year system. SB 187 will continue through the legislative process, with future votes to be reported by FishRap.

SALTWATER OCEAN FISHING REPORT By Terrence Berg 976-TUNA.com APRIL WINDS: The old fisherman’s adage about April being a windy month held true much of the past few days and the wind is expected to continue through the weekend. Most sportboats have been in since late Sunday (April 23) due to winds to 40 knots or more and 8- to 9-foot swells. This is not fun fishing weather, even for the big sportboats. As a result, most of the boats -- especially the offshore and island boats -- have been dockside this week. SAN DIEGO BLUEFIN: Before the winds started hammering the local ocean bite, the bluefin tuna action for the San Diego fleet had continued and more big fish were showing in this bite, with more fish over 60 pounds and the average still 40-plus. The yellowtail are still mostly smaller-grade fish to 8 pounds, and but the offshore bonito are 5 to 15 pounds. Pacific Queen returned from a 1.5-day trip on April 24 with 31 anglers, and while the trip produced only four bluefin as the weather soured, they were all from 60 to 110 pounds, with two topping that 100-pound mark. There was also a 116-pound opah landed on this trip. The April 23 trip with 34 anglers produced three bluefin and 110 yellowtail in the three to 8-pound range. Relentless and Old Glory, both out of H&M Landing, ran 1.5-day trips on April 23. The 19 anglers on Relentless had just two bluefin tuna, while the 30 anglers on Glory landed one bluefin and 127 yellowtail. Prowler, out of Fisherman’s Landing, had 23 anglers on its April 23 overnight trip and landed 115 yellowtail. On its April 22 overnight, 29 anglers landed 17 yellowtail and 15 bonito. Tribute out of Seaforth Sportfishing was on an overnight trip with
19 anglers on April 23 and landed one bluefin, 35 yellowtail, and 34 bonito. Oceanside 95 out of Helgren’s Sportfishing in Oceanside had 35 anglers on its overnight trip April 22 and landed two bluefin and two yellowtail. Liberty, the three-quarter-day boat out of Fisherman’s Landing, had 23 anglers on its April 23 trip and landed 35 bluefin and 85 bonito. The April 22 trip with 44 anglers produced two bluefin and 15 bonito. The three-quarter-day boat Mission Belle out of Point Loma had 13 anglers on April 24 and managed just nine yellowtail in roughening seas. The April 23 trip with 14 anglers returned with limits of 28 bluefin and 40 bonito. Malihini out of H&M Landing had 31 anglers on its April 23 three-quarter-day trip and landed two bluefin and 82 bonito. San Diego out of Seaforth Sportfishing had 35 anglers on its April 24 three-quarter-day and landed seven bluefin. Its Sunday trip with 21 anglers produced five bluefin and 105 bonito. LOCAL ISLANDS UPDATE: Wind was hammering even the inside of Catalina Island on April 25, with 40-knot winds really hammering what had been good fishing. Clemente and Santa Barbara islands saw even worse conditions on April 23. Before this winds got bad, however, the bite was pretty good. Thunderbird out of Davey’s Locker had 29 anglers on its April 23 overnight trip and landed 13 yellowtail and one white sea bass. The April 22 trip with 30 anglers, in much better condtions, produced 31 yellowtail, 84 sheephead, 54 keeper calico bass, 47 rockfish and two barracuda. Toronado out of Pierpoint Landing had 21 anglers on its overnight April 24 trip and landed 13 yellowtail, 41 keeper calicos, 23 rockfish, seven whitefish and six perch. The April 23 trip with 23 anglers returned with 12 yellowtail, 39 whitefish, 34 sheephead, 12 calico bass and 10 perch. ROCKFISH SOLID: The rockfish boats from Orange County north up the coastline continue to return with good scores of bottom fish, and the nearshore

boats have been a little protected from the brunt of the winds in recent days. New Del Mar out of Marina del Rey ran out of a half-day trip on April 26 and the 19 anglers managed to get 140 rockfish and three whitefish. The April 24 trip with 25 anglers produced 200 rockfish, 12 whitefish and four sculpin. The northern boats running out of Ventura and Santa Barbara landings have also had tough conditions with most boats in since April 22, but Patriot out of Patriot Sportfishing in Avila Beach had 13 anglers on an April 26 half-day and managed 47 rockfish, four lingcod and two red snapper. Up in Morro Bay, Fiesta out of Virg’s Landing had 11 anglers on its April 26 half-day and they caught 55 mixed rockfish, 50 red snapper and five lingcod. INSTRUCTIONAL CHARTERS: 976-TUNA offers instructional charters throughout the season. While all of the April and May trips are booked, the next available trip is a two-day aboard Thunderbird out of Davey’s Locker leaving June 11. The earlybooking price is just $275 (normal price is $400). These trips are held from early spring through fall, offering advice to beginning or veteran anglers and on-the-water teaching of techniques for different saltwater species.
