The Newport Boat Show returned to Lido Marina Village last year after a brief hiatus, and the opening of several waterfront restaurants and shops was one of the show’s non-boating highlights. This year’s boat show coincides with the nautical-themed Lido House hotel opening. The boutique hotel has been in the works since 2013 and features a Cape Cod design, 130 rooms and five private cottages, a social roof deck with views of the harbor and

several other amenities. More information about the hotel is available at lidohousehotel.com.

Boat Debuts Several boats, such as the Horizon V68, will be making some sort of debut at the Newport Boat Show.

Horizon’s new V68 model, which was nine years in the making, will make its U.S. debut at the Newport Boat Show. It measures 70 feet long and features an open salon, joined galley and country kitchen on the main deck.

Also included onboard are three staterooms, bar with dinette and aft beach club area.

Ancient Viking sailors may have navigated waters with a crystal compass 2C

By Devon Warren BUDAPEST, Hungary — Crystal clear may have had a different meaning to the Vikings. As it turns out, the ancient Norse people, who reigned for three centuries between 900 and 1200 A.D., may have used calcite, tourmaline or other translucent stones to navigate their ships.

Vikings, although depicted by some to wear horned helmets and lack hygiene (both of which have been debunked by archeological studies), were skilled, sea-faring explorers. A new study shows the navigational savvies of the Vikings, who were possibly the first to construct advanced vessels and embark on long-distance voyages, could have been partially due to a special tool: a crystal they called sólarstein

North Carolina receives grant to build artificial reef measuring more than 100 feet long KILL DEVIL HILLS, N.C. (AP) — A fishing group has received a state grant to build a new artificial reef off North Carolina’s Outer Banks in hopes of luring anglers as well as the fish they aim to land.

The Virginian-Pilot of Norfolk reports the North Carolina Division of Marine Fisheries awarded the two-year grant to the Outer Banks Anglers Club,

or, translated, “sunstone.”

A new theory by Royal Society Publishing suggests Vikings could have discovered a method to sail from Norway to Greenland in dreary weather using sky polarization.

The sólarstein could be used to determine the true north direction as the light dispersed through it, making cloudy and foggy circumstances the perfect navigational weather.

This is by no means the first time the crystal theory has been discussed in the sailing world. In 2013, Live Science reported a crystal thought to be a sunstone was found at the Alderney shipwreck near Channel Islands.

In the study led by Dénes Száz and Gábor Horváth, 1,000 voyages were simulated during varying weather conditions during summer solstice and spring equinox. Software that

was written specifically for the study was used to lead to these findings.

Leif Eriksson, son of Erik the Red, was a known Viking explorer and was said to have discovered Greenland at least 500 years before Christopher Columbus landed in “The New World.” That would place Eriksson as the first explorer to

reach North America.

Despite violent and gruesome tendencies towards those they conquered, Vikings may very well be some of the most innovative and advanced sailors from ancient times.

which hopes to enhance the fishing reputation near the shore along the state’s famed barrier islands. The agency used money from the sale of coastal recreational fishing licenses, according to club spokesman Tony Lombardi.

“We’re trying to make inshore fishing equal to what they get offshore,” said Dick Parker, chairman of the artificial reef committee for the anglers club.

Artificial reefs have helped create a world-class fishing reputation near the shore in southeastern North Carolina. The new artificial reef will be constructed 8 miles south of Oregon Inlet by

sinking a decommissioned ship more than 100 feet long with an added 2,000 tons of assorted pieces of concrete pipe up to 8 feet long and more than 6 feet in diameter.

Another 6,000 tons of concrete and possibly another old ship will go into the site during the second year of the grant, Lombardi said. Concrete from the demolition of the old Bonner Bridge will go toward beefing up the existing four reefs in the area and will not be used at the new reef, he said.

Only four artificial reefs lie offshore from the Outer Banks near Oregon Inlet, and no new

material has been added to the four in 10 years, according to Parker. Over time, reefs tend to sink and deteriorate and become less effective, he said. The new reef and the additions to the existing reefs will make a big difference, he said.

“This means better opportunities to catch more fish,” he said.

Lead Fishing Weight Ban: Will California’s proposal sink or swim?

An Assembly member hopes to outlaw the tackle box item, but advocacy groups say legislations lacks scientific backing.

By Parimal M. Rohit SACRAMENTO — A recent proposal to ban the use of lead weights in California’s waterways has the bill’s opponents fishing for answers. Such opponents are specifically asking whether a proposal to ban certain-sized lead fishing weights and sinkers is based upon any scientific research.

The question is a fair one to ask. Legislation founded researched/scientific evidence is, generally speaking, tighter and harder to challenge than those strictly based upon emotions or ideals.

Lead fishing weights are commonly used due to their low cost, wide availability, density and malleability, according to the American Fisheries Society.

The evidence versus emotion juxtaposition is in full play with Assembly Bill 2787 (AB 2787), which was introduced by Assembly member Bill Quirk, D-Hayward, in February. Quirk, in a statement released shortly after the introduction of his bill, stated splitshots and other forms of lead fishing weights “are killing California wildlife.”

“Many birds consume river gravel to aid in mashing and digesting food. Often they accidentally ingest discarded lead fishing weights. The lead poisons their liver, leading to a slow death.

Water fowl, in particular, are common victims,” Quirk said in his statement.

Recreational fishing groups were quick to challenge Quirk’s statement (and proposal), arguing his efforts were founded on emotional appeal instead of scientific backing.

California Sportfishing League (CSL), a statewide angling lobby, provided six talking points to those who opposed the proposed ban on lead fishing weights. Two of the talking points questioned whether AB 2787 was based on scientific research. (The other four talking points claimed AB 2787 would be economically harmful.)

“There is no evidence that lead fishing weights threaten California wildlife populations in California. Isolated incidences in California do not suggest a significant risk, or the justification for a statewide ban,” one of the talking points stated.

“While lead bans exist in some Northeastern states or other countries, wildlife there are not commonly found in California,” the other talking point stated.

The American Sportfishing Association (ASA) raised the stakes and, in a policy position posted on its website in September 2017, stated the conSee STANDING WATCH page 7

FAST FACTS: San Diego’s Friendly Public Art SAN DIEGO — America’s Finest City might also be one of the country’s friendliest, as San Diego is home to a pair of interesting pieces of public art commemorating the city’s relationship with members of the Pacific Rim. Masahiko Katori’s Yokohama Friendship Bell sits on Shelter Island and recognizes San Diego’s sister city relationship with Yokohama, Japan. Also on Shelter Island is James T. Hubbell’s Pearl of the Pacific, which recognizes San Diego’s relationship with Tijuana (Mexico), Vladivostok (Russia) and Yantai (China).

The Yokohama Friendship Bell, located on the western cul-de-sac of Shelter Island, was presented to San Diego by the citizens of Yokohama in 1958.

It stands 6 feet tall and weighs nearly 2.5 tons. The bell was made in Japan and delivered to San Diego aboard the U.S. Navy’s U.S.S. Prairie. A delegation was finally able to install and dedicate the bell in 1960.

Hubbell’s Pearl of the Pacific, meanwhile, is

a fountain located at Pacific Rim Park.

Architectural students helped Hubbell create the pearl fountain with Chinese fans and Russian-themed ironwork. Pearl of the Pacific was created in 1998 - about 40 years after the Yokohama Friendship Bell. Its tile patterns feather an American shorebird, Chinese dragon, Mexican Quetzalcoatl and Russian Siberian tiger. The Port of San Diego, Ilan-Lael Foundation, Far-Eastern State Technical University, city of Vladivostok and Pacific Rim Park nonprofit corporation all helped bring Pearl of the Pacific online.

nection between lead fishing weights and waterfowl deaths isn’t strong enough to warrant legislative restrictions on the popular tackle box item.

“Mortality in some waterbird species, notably the common loon, has been linked to the ingestion of lead fishing tackle; however, it has only been shown to affect a small number of individual birds, not the health of the population,” ASA officials stated.

The national angling lobby added they have not found enough research to justify a nationwide ban on lead fishing weights.

“ASA believes insufficient data exists to warrant nation-wide bans on lead tackle. [The organization] acknowledges that a small number of individual waterbirds have died from lead toxicosis associated with discarded or lost lead tackle; however, ASA believes the data do not demonstrate that lead tackle is a threat to the health of loon or other waterbird populations,” the lobby stated as part of its policy position.

“In general, loon and other waterbird populations are subject to much more substantial threats, such as habitat loss through shoreline development, disease, water quality issues and predators,” ASA officials continued.

The policy position added non-lead alternative sinkers and weights could cost 10 to 20 times more than their lead counterparts. Added expenses, ASA and CSL officials argued, would cause fewer anglers to drop a line in the water (and, hence, harming the economy on multiple levels).

American Fisheries Society published a policy position in 2012, stating a hazardous connection between lead poising and wildlife “became apparent during the 1970s and 1980s.”

“Loons and swans ingest lead fishing tackle when they mistake small lead sinkers and jigheads for the small stones they pick up from the bottom of lakes and rivers to help them digest their food, or when they ingest fishing line with a lead sinker still attached to a baited hook,” the American Fisheries Society policy position stated. “A single ingested lead sinker or jighead will expose a waterbird to a lethal dose of lead since digested lead is readily absorbed into animal tissue.”

The policy position did acknowledge lead poisoning among waterfowl and other wildlife is possible from sources, but lead fishing weights, at certain sizes, can be easily ingested.

A scientific report cited by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in 2008 positioned lead fishing weights as a hazardous threat to wildlife.

“Millions of pounds of lead used in hunting, fishing and shooting sports wind up in the environment each year and can threaten or kill wildlife, according to a new scientific report,” USGC staff stated in an archived post on its website. “Lead is a metal with no known beneficial role in biological systems, and its use in gasoline, paint, pesticides, and solder in food cans has nearly been eliminated. Although lead shot was banned for waterfowl hunting in 1991, its use in ammunition for upland hunting, shooting sports, and in fishing tackle remains common.”

USGS’s archived post did note the authors of the cited report acknowledged more information was needed to determine some aspects of the relationship between lead fishing weights and its effects on wildlife. The need for more information, however, did not preclude the report’s authors from maintaining its position: lead does not pose any benefits for wildlife.

“While noting that more information is needed on some aspects of the impact of lead on wildlife, the authors said that numerous studies already documented adverse effects to wildlife, especially waterbirds and scavenging species, like hawks and eagles,” the report cited

by USGS stated. “Lead exposure from ingested lead shot, bullets, and fishing sinkers also has been reported in reptiles, and studies near shooting ranges have shown evidence of lead poisoning in small mammals.”

A report published in “The Journal of Wildlife Management” in September 2017, meanwhile, stated 48.6 percent of the adult common loon population in New Hampshire died, between 1989 and 2012, by ingesting small pieces of lead fishing tackle.

CSL quickly pointed out the cited report was limited to loons found in New Hampshire and could not be applied to California.

TAKE ACTION AB 2787 does not make any mention of scientific research or data – opening the door for Quirk’s proposal to be attacked as emotional and lacking foundation. The bill is scheduled for its first legislative hearing on April 24. Should a bill like AB 2787 advance through the legislature without some sort of data or scientific research cited?

Fine for $12.5 million issued to Orange County oil company for multiple violations LOS ANGELES (AP) — A California oil company with a long history of safety violations and regulatory lapses was hit with a record $12.5 million fine by state regulators for nearly 1,500 violations in the past year at an oil field in Orange County.

Greka Oil & Gas falsified results in more than 350 reports, failed to conduct regular pressure testing at dozens of wells and didn’t maintain operating pressure gauges, according to the state’s Department of Conservation.

“The magnitude of this penalty reflects the company’s violations and poor practices, and the potential harm it could cause to surrounding communities, the environment, and groundwater,” Ken Harris, supervisor of the Division of Oil, Gas and Geothermal Resources, said.

Lawmakers equipped the division with increased enforcement powers and stiffer financial penalties, which led to the largest fine ever issued by the division, spokesman Don

Underwater oil pipelines damaged by a vessel, according to Michigan governor TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. (AP) — Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder said twin oil pipelines beneath the waterway linking two of the Great Lakes apparently were damaged by the same vessel believed to have caused a recent 600-gallon (2,270-liter) coolant fluid leak from electric cables.

Snyder said Enbridge Inc. had notified the state about the damage to its Line 5 pipes, adding it was minor and consisted of three small dents.

But the Republican governor said Michigan agencies want to make sure there’s no danger to the pipelines. They carry 23 million gallons (87 million liters) of crude oil daily across the Straits of Mackinac, which connect Lake Huron and Lake Michigan.

Snyder also wants Enbridge to accelerate a study of ways to prevent anchor strikes and alternatives for replacing the

Drysdale said. The fine surpassed the previous record of $257,000 against Bennett Petroleum in 2015 by nearly 50 times.

The state also ordered the company to stop injecting water into its Richfield oil operation northeast of Anaheim until it complies with state orders. It is also required to get a $39 million bond that would be used to cover cleanup costs if the company goes bankrupt.

Bonding is of particular concern for the state because a former Greka subsidiary, Rincon Island Limited Partnership, filed for bankruptcy and California is now on the hook for a cleanup that is expected to exceed $50 million.

Tiny Rincon Island, built to drill for oil off the Ventura County coast, had been cited by the state for dozens of violations and being in a “severe state of disrepair” when the subsidiary folded.

The state will have to plug wells and decommission the operation. Expected costs don’t include removing the manmade island.

Assembly Bill 2175, if passed and signed into law, would allow a marine safety or peace officer, in the performance of his or her official duties, to remove (and potentially store) a vessel from public property and might have used in the commission of a crime.

AB 2175 also proposed to give a court the authority to make any person convicted of using the vessel responsible for costs associated with its removal, impoundment, storage and release.

The bill, which was introduced by Assembly Member Cecilia Aguiar-Curry, is sponsored by the California State Sheriffs’

Plans to dredge Oceanside Harbor could be delayed.

Army Corps of Engineers could delay Oceanside dredging What Happened: Plans to dredge Oceanside Harbor appear to be up in the air again after the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers reportedly informed city officials the annual project could be delayed or even canceled.

Oceanside hoped to have dredging complete by the Memorial Day weekend, but a San Diego Union-Tribune report stated the necessary paperwork for the dredge aren’t yet in order. The requisite paperwork and notices must be completed by May 1 in order for the dredging project to be completed by Memorial Day weekend, according to a news report.

Dredging is a necessary project to ensure proper depth of navigational channels; a harbor’s entrance/exit could fall victim to shoaling, preventing boats from navigating in or out of a harbor. Dredging removes the sand collecting and piling up at the harbor entrance; the sand is often relocated to local beaches, which often lose sand due to erosion.

What’s On Tap: Oceanside and the Army Corps of Engineers could still complete the necessary paperwork and permitting to move forward with the dredging project.

It is unclear, however, when the dredging project would start, if it all.

Voters also re-elected Ann Marshall as mayor. Marshall was elected as a write-in candidate, defeating businessman Robert

Long Beach approves fee waiver for Seal Beach Yacht Club regattas What Happened: Seal Beach Yacht Club was granted a fee waiver for the use of dock space at Alamitos Bay Marina for two regattas planned for this summer.

The Long Beach City Council approved a consent calendar item, April 3, to waive up to $2,500 in fees for visiting vessels to use dock space during the Seal Beach to Dana Point Race (July 7) and Marina del Rey to Alamitos Bay Regatta (Sept. 1).

“These sailing events attract visitors and spectators, and bring attention to the sport of sailboat racing in the City of Long

Beach and the Alamitos Bay Marina. They also generate additional tourism revenue for local businesses, such as hotels, restaurants, grocery and boating supply stores, as well as other retail establishments,” city staff stated in a report to council members. “These events are consistent with the Department of Parks, Recreation and Marine’s partnering policy to support organizations that provide a service to the community and its residents by promoting the Long Beach marinas.”

What’s On Tap: Docking fees will be waived for both regattas; $1,250 would be applied to the Seal Beach to Dana Point Race and another $1,250 in fee waivers will be available for Marina del Rey to Alamitos Bay Regatta.

Coastal Commission holds informational hearing on Redondo Beach’s “Waterfront” project Quasi-judicial agency could provide direction on controversial redevelopment of King Harbor in August.

By Parimal M. Rohit

REDONDO BEACH — The ongoing battle between the city of Redondo Beach and CenterCal Properties was met with a standing-room only audience, as both entities were present at the latest California Coastal Commission meetings for an informational presentation and hearing on The Waterfront project.

Commissioners held the informational hearing on April 12 as a prelude for what could be a decisive discussion in August, when the Coastal Commission is expected to review the Waterfront project in more detail.

Coastal Commission staff, in the meantime, updated commissioners on the current state of the proposed revitalization of King Harbor during its April meeting, which, coincidentally, was held in Redondo Beach.

CenterCal proposed an ambitious $400 million revitalization of Redondo Beach’s aging waterfront, angling to bring new visitor-serving amenities to King Harbor. The project – like many other large-scale redevelopments – drew its fair share of local opponents. Some who actively opposed the project – dubbed “The Waterfront” by CenterCal - stated it was essentially a super-sized mall on the water.

Plans to introduce a boat launch ramp - an amenity not present within King Harbor for decades - also drew its fair share of criticism and divisiveness.

There was a constant debate of where within King Harbor to place the boat launch ramp. Some locations were more cost efficient, while others were safer.

Controversy surrounding the CenterCal revitalization reached a fever pitch when Redondo Beach voters, in March 2017, approved Measure C, a slow-growth ballot initiative, with 6,102 residents voting in favor (compared to 4,541 votes against).

Recent Lawsuits The spotlight has since been on Measure C, which was the subject of state and federal lawsuit filings by both entities.

A federal judge recently ruled the matter was of local concern, essentially punting the dispute to state court. Redondo Beach and CenterCal both appeared in front of Los Angeles Superior Court judge (James C. Chalfant) just before Coastal Commission’s April meetings. Both sides claimed Chalfant’s ruling, at least partially, was a victory.

CenterCal stated Chalfant’s ruling upheld the company’s vested rights and the city of Redondo Beach could not apply Measure C to The Waterfront.

The company’s spokesperson shared an Easy Reader News article with The Log as evidence the judge ruled Measure C does not apply to The Waterfront.

A report in the Daily Breeze, however, framed the ruling as giving the Coastal Commission final say over Measure C. At least one city council member shared this article with The Log as evidence of Chalfant ruling in See REDONDO BEACH page 13

thelog.com

Redondo Beach From page 12

favor of Redondo Beach Jim Light, a Redondo Beach boater, shared his perspective of Chalfant’s ruling on The Log’s Facebook page.

“CenterCal tried to get Measure C thrown out because it violated the City Charter and it targeted just their project. The judge disagreed,” Light wrote. “The judge agreed CenterCal has vested rights. His ruling is that because CenterCal has vested rights, Measure C does not apply to it for now. But if the Coastal Commission makes changes to or denies the project, then CenterCal no longer has vested rights.

“So in the end, Measure C could very well be applied to the project. And in the end, the Coastal Commission is within its powers to define a project that would conform with Measure C,” Light stated.

Coastal Commission Informational Hearing Commissioners were provided with an update of the project, including the redevelopment’s overall plans.

“The proposal for the Waterfront Development project is a significant redevelopment of the Redondo Beach King Harbor, which would include demolition of the existing structures in the project site and construction of 19 new structures with three view corridors for retail, restaurant, creative office, cinema, a public market hall, and a 130 room boutique hotel, construct one new parking garage, reconstruct the existing pier parking structure [and construction of] a new two-lane road south of Harbor Dr., connecting Pacific Ave. to Torrance Blvd.,” commission staff stated in a report to commissioners.

Commission staff also spent time reviewing boat launch ramp plans and discussed whether elements of the project were consistent with Local Coastal Program (LCP) requirements.

“The development [in some instances] proposes to remove existing coastal dependent uses. For example, the project would remove the hand launch dock used for kayak and paddleboard launching,” Amber Dobson, a planner with the Coastal Commission, told commissioners. “Improvements to Basin 3 would remove one boat slip.

Removal of the boat slips is inconsistent with the LCP. “Overall the proposed project raises concerns regarding whether there would be an appropriate mix of visitor-serving uses and coastal dependent uses, which is also required by the LCP, and whether it appropriately reserves oceanfront land for high priority uses,” Dobson continued.

Redondo Beach City Manager Joe Hoefgen, who spoke to commissioners on behalf of the Los Angeles suburb, acknowledged the King Harbor area is in need of revitalization.

“It’s well documented that much of the waterfront infrastructure has reached the end of its useful life and is in need of significant repairs or replacement,” Hoefgen said. “If The

The Log • April 20 - May 3, 2018 • 13

Waterfront project is not constructed, the city will need to spend additional funds to address the failing condition of existing commercial buildings, which is estimated to cost another $30 million to $50 million.”

Hoefgen acknowledged The Waterfront project would absorb many of the high-cost items - such as parking structure and infrastructure improvements – needing immediate attention.

City officials also discussed issues with The Waterfront’s project intensity, scale and compatibility, as well as with plans to build a new public boat launch ramp.

CenterCal CEO Fred Bruning also spoke with commissioners, sharing Redondo Beach’s waterfront history

and his company’s vision of its future.

He also discussed The Waterfront’s project specifics, explaining its various elements and addressing issues raised by commission staff.

Several people spoke to the commission about the project throughout the prolonged public hearing, which started in mid-afternoon and continued into the evening.

A representative of L.A. County Supervisor Janice Hahn’s office read a statement to commissioners on behalf of the elected official, saying she opposed The Waterfront project as currently proposed. Hahn’s supervisorial district includes Redondo Beach.

Redondo Beach Mayor Bill Brand, who addressed commissioners as a pri-

vate citizen, said the current CenterCal proposal is an oversized project taking away ocean view corridors.

“This project should be rejected by the commission. Unfortunately, it’s a do-over,” Brand said. “This turned into a monster. There [are] way too many violations of The Coastal Act, as well as our Local Coastal Program.”

Mayor Pro Tem Laura Emdee, meanwhile, expressed her support of The Waterfront project, stating it increases coastal access and promotes clean water.

Commissioners and commission staff took the hours of public commentary into consideration and will continue to accept input from concerned parties during the next few months.

Dana Point Harbor Company General Manager says resolution lies in consistent enforcement, fair and clear policies.

By Devon Warren

STATEWIDE — Boat owners have the ability to jump aboard their ship and disappear from society for a while.

Some even take it a step further and live an adventure-filled, carefree life as liveaboard tenants. At least, that’s what most might think.

As it turns out, in California it is a difficult process to live on a boat.

Doing so requires a large amount of planning and could take several years to finally meet the criteria needed to be authorized to hold a liveaboard permit, depending on the harbor or marina one chooses as a home. However, there are some who do not go through the motions of complying with the liveaboard rules in marinas.

Enter the sneakaboard tenant, or a person who is living aboard his or her vessel in a marina or harbor without the contractual right to do so. It’s a similar concept to perhaps a squatter in an apartment rental. The word itself suggests a lawbreaker with an especially underhanded, stealthy way of jumping from liveaboard tenancy to tenancy – a possible nuisance for both harbors and other liveaboard tenants alike.

Sneakaboard Communities A popular website, Reddit, has an entire section dedicated to liveaboard communities all around the world.

Most of the users begin threads with inquiring lifestyle questions, but some flat-out ask about the marinas and harbors where they can reside as sneakaboards or under the radar.

It is unclear whether there is a rising sneakaboard dilemma in Southern California, but it has certainly been in the news over the years in Northern California as residents, usually younger techie types, look for alternative

options to battle increasingly high rental costs.

One gentleman, an Irish citizen with an American fiancé, first posted in 2015 with the desire to find a place to live in the San Francisco Bay Area, was an example of such sneakaboard inquiries. Multiple responses came as a result, but the majority advised the man not to break the law.

A response to the thread by user docmongre brought into question the management of varying marinas and harbors, asking whether tenants would want to pay to live somewhere that was not well managed or allowed ongoing situations where sneakaboards were allowed to dwell.

“Liveaboard status is a feasible but difficult task, depending on the marina,” the user stated. “Some marinas have wait lists, some allow temporary liveaboard while you wait. Some are strict, some are lenient. Some you would love to be at, other marinas are derelict and somewhat sketchy.”

One of the troubling aspects of sneakaboards, whether they are a pest to other tenants or the marina or not, is that legal tenants pay a premium for electricity, water, garbage, harbor amenities and may follow a strict number of requirements to maintain their permits and keep good standing.

Sneakaboard tenants do not accumulate these costs nor are they in compliance with the harbor rules.

The Waiting Most harbors and marinas have a waiting list for boaters who wish to apply for a liveaboard permit. Typically, there is a limit on how many permits and slips are reserved for liveaboard vessels. In Oceanside, where there has been problems reported of illegal tenants for years, there is a limit of 10 percent. In the case of some harbors, such as Dana Point, the percentage allocated by the County of Orange is much less at 3 percent.

James Lenthall, President of Dana Point Boating Association, told The Log, “There are no doubt boaters who desire to live aboard but are prevented

Battling “sneakaboard” tenants in Southern California

Sneakaboard tenants – those who live aboard a boat without permission to do so – has become an issue at marinas and harbors everywhere, including Oceanside Harbor, pictured here.

from doing so due to the limited number of [slips]. But we [DPBA] are not hearing that our boating community overall feels there should be more liveaboards or that there are significant violations or abuse.”

Doug Whitlock, general manager of Dana Point Marina Company, has been with the company for nearly 40 years and said Dana Point Harbor has made an effort to keep policies easy to understand.

Whitlock said the harbor currently has 11 permittees out of 1,428 on offer, making liveaboard tenants less than one percent of the current tenants at Dana Point Harbor. While tenants can easily apply for permits, the waitlist for slips is between two to 15 years for vessels 35 to 65 feet, which is what is required to be an authorized liveaboard tenant at Dana Point Harbor.

This may seem like a conundrum, but Whitlock says there is logical reason this might be the case at most marinas and harbors.

“The waitlist … prevents folks from becoming liveaboard on a whim. If they don’t have a slip already, they have to plan ahead for a few years to make it happen,” Whitlock told The Log.

Complying with Liveaboard Policies What qualifies as a liveaboard is also determined by each harbor and marina

with some cities being friendlier towards it than others. Contacting the marinas and harbors individually to learn more about slip allowances, rates, permits and regulations is advisable.

“Our liveaboard policies as they are now have essentially been in place since the early 1990s,” Whitlock stated.

“They are fair and clear, simple to administer and allow us flexibility to work with boaters.”

According to Whitlock, unauthorized liveaboards in Dana Point Harbor are a relatively rare occurrence, and the main goal is to bring slip renters into compliance with the policies.

“As a member of the Marine Recreation Association for many years, I have networked with many marinas on this and other issues,” Whitlock said. “Every marina has its own desires and enforcement issues on liveaboards.

Some marinas allow no liveaboards, some actively encourage liveaboards.”

Fishing Out Sneakaboards Oceanside is one such area where the matter of unauthorized liveaboard tenants has become a burden. A source close to the situation states that it’s incredibly difficult to prove a tenant is illegally living aboard the vessel and that Oceanside Harbor, a city-run harbor, is working towards a solution to this problem.

IN MEMORIAM: Joseph Driscoll scraping boat bottoms to assuming a leadership position with Driscoll Boat Works. The company continues to have a presence in San Diego, operating Driscoll Yacht Sales, Driscoll Wharf, Driscoll Mission Bay Boatyard and Marina, and Intrepid Landing at various locations along the city’s waterfront.

Driscoll himself managed Driscoll Mission Bay Boatyard and Marina for about 20 years. He also worked with Kettenburg Marine.

“Over his career, he was highly regarded in the industry and with the

employees as an intelligent and honest straight shooter,” an obituary written by his family read. “Customers would come from as far away as Los Angeles to have their boats repaired and serviced under Joseph’s diligent watch. He was also instrumental in bringing several of the large racing sailboats to the boat yard in Mission Bay to prepare for the races over the years.”

Driscoll was an avid golfer and also spent time on the water with his family.

He is survived by his wife of more than 35 years, Lynn, daughter Jessica, grand pup

Bentley, sister Mary-Carol Madison, and brothers John, Chuck, Tom and Michael.

Sister Cathy preceded him in death several years ago.

There will be a celebration of life on Saturday April 21, from 1-4 p.m. at Driscoll Mission Bay 1500 Quivira Way, San Diego 92109. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations are made to Southern Caregiver Resource Center at caregivercenter.org/donate2.php in memory of Joseph Driscoll.

Driscoll Boat Works was founded in 1947.

By Parimal M. Rohit SAN DIEGO — Joseph Driscoll, one of the leading members of Driscoll Boat Works in San Diego, has died. He was 60.

Driscoll died on April 2 after fighting a prolonged illness. He was born on Nov. 13, 1957 in San Diego and spent his entire life there. By the age of 16, Driscoll was a part of the family’s boat building and repair business.

Soon he worked his way up from

Sneakaboards From page 14

One of the major issues drawing sneakaboards into a marina or harbor: Its size and points of entry.

“In smaller marinas where dock access is through a central point, enforcement would be easy. For larger facilities with many access points, enforcement is more complicated and time-consuming,” Whitlock said.

For Whitlock, the key to combating unauthorized liveaboard tenants is in consistent enforcement.

“Consistent enforcement is the key to keeping unauthorized liveaboards at a manageable level. As I’m fond of saying, you need to address issues as they come up because you will have 10 more issues tomorrow,” he said.

In areas where liveaboards have become a larger issue, such as in Oceanside Harbor, Whitlock stated the problem might be that there was a lack of enforcement over the years and public and government-owned harbors, “tend to avoid ramping up enforcement due to the potential for public outcry.”

In California, waterfront or on-water property is at a premium. How can regulations toward liveaboards be implemented to allow for the best for both tenants and harbor operators?

Have any marina tenants out there been affected by sneakaboards for the worse?

Renewable Fuels Association (RFA) and agricultural agencies, on the one hand, appear pleased with Trump’s support of the ethanol industry.

Boating United, however, has released a petition calling for those in the boating community to take a stand against altering the Renewable Fuels Standard (RFS). If more ethanol is added to the country’s fuel supply then recreational boaters will have fewer choices at the gas pump, according to Boaters United.

Story and photo by Capt. Nicole Sours Larson

SAN DIEGO — Have you seen the new dockless rental bikes and scooters strewn around San Diego, Los Angeles and many urban areas?

While they have their fans – and many detractors – in affected San Diego neighborhoods, they’re a potential boon to boaters, especially for transients bobbing from port to port without their own wheels. Noting their convenience, Jim Behun, general manager of Sunroad Resort Marina, reports many marina managers generally welcome them.

Inexpensive dockless bikes and scooters have swamped San Diego in recent weeks, apparently dropped en masse in popular coastal zones without notice to city officials, who were caught flat-footed, unable to respond with much-needed regulations. Walking around targeted areas – Downtown, the Embarcadero, Pacific and Ocean Beach, Shelter and Harbor Islands – you’ll see them everywhere, often piled up or abandoned in the public right-of-way, parked blocking the sidewalk or stolen and trashed alongside the road.

To ride a dockless bike/scooter, start by downloading the application (app) and signing up for an account, giving your credit card for billing. Through your smartphone app you can locate the GPStracked bike/scooters on a pop-up map and unlock them through the app.

park them inappropriately or on private property and couldn’t care less about observing local regulations.

On the other hand, used responsibly, they have enormous potential for liberating people – particularly boaters – to enjoy spontaneous activities, opening doors for new exploration that, in the past, would have required advance planning.

My curiosity aroused after listening to presentations from reps of the four bike/scooter share companies now operating in San Diego, I wanted to know just what the companies tell users about local use requirements.

I downloaded apps for LimeBike, Bird and Mobike; I balked at providing Ofo with access to all the personal information they required just to download their app. I read all the gobbledygook in their terms, conditions and privacy policies, which most people never read.

My advice: read the fine print, always.

If people bothered to read it and comply with the terms laid out, riders would prevent most problems.

Legal passenger-for-hire vessel operators continue to search for ways to weed out illegal charters.

By Devon Warren

SAN DIEGO — Picture a scene where business owners are losing more and more profit each day by following the rules. This is what happens to legal passenger charter vessel owners every day when they go out on the waters.

In areas such as San Diego, legal charters are increasingly being pushed out or are in competition with illegal counterparts.

It’s not just in San Diego. Charter businesses in Dana Point, Marina del Rey and other areas have made similar complaints. What is being done to combat this issue and will it impact those who choose to illegally run a charter operation?

A Day in the Life of a Charter Owner A private charter owner in San Diego prefers to keep a secret identity.

In the past, damage has been done to the charter owner’s vessel in retaliation for openly going after illegal charters.

For the purpose of this story, The Log will identify this charter owner as Dan. In San Diego, though attempts have been made to address illegal hire-by-passenger boats, Dan said the ordinances have not been effective or significant enough to make an impact.

During the recent recession, disposable income was not readily available.

According to Dan, since the partial financial recovery, anyone who has a boat and is not using it believes they can make a quick buck by chartering it out.

How can paying customers distinguish between legal and illegal charter operators? Dan said it is fairly easy. The answer lies in asking for documentation. If a charter is legal, they should not have any trouble providing this information, which must be posted

on the vessel. Illegal charter operators will hem and haw, step around the issue or might become angry or verbally abusive.

A group of charter operators have gotten together, but some feel frustrated and like they are making no headway or that with other political and enforcement problems in San Diego, such as immigration, that illegal charters are not a priority.

Several agencies, such as the United States Coast Guard and San Diego Harbor Patrol, are working together to combat illegal charter According to Dan, operations on San Diego waters. However, local charter owners are still in competition with their illegal counterparts. the Harbor Police may be understaffed or undersourced.

One positive, Dan stated, is some operators are expected to uphold a continues to be a subject that draws marinas in San Diego have a limited standard of safety goes beyond what controversy and passion for boaters all number of charter operations allowed might be expected of non-charter over, not just charter owners. and that each charter business has a permit holders.

City and Navy come to terms on new license agreement, which allows for recreational access.

By Parimal M. Rohit

CORONADO — The city of Coronado formalized collaborations with state and federal level officials, April 3, as City Council members accepted $24,300 to address surrendered and abandoned vessels and continued its relationship with the U.S. Navy to keep a portion of the Glorietta Bay waterfront open for various recreational uses.

report.

“The license agreement with the Navy grants the City use of approximately 0.2 acres of beach and water area in front of the Club Room and Boathouse for public recreation,” city staff stated in a report to council members.

“This area supports numerous recreational operations at the Club Room and Boathouse,

Coronado accepts SAVE funds, extends naval agreement for waterfront use

Coronado’s relationship with the U.S. Navy will continue, as the two entities entered into a five-year accord for use of a portion of Glorietta Bay.

including beach access for events at the venue, instructional programs such as kayaking, standup paddleboarding, rowing and fitness classes.

“Without the license, the city will lose the use of the area,” city staff continued.

Coronado typically spends between $1,500 and $2,000 per year to maintain the portion of Glorietta Bay waterfront designated in the licensing agreement.

The Navy, in turn, uses the funds to offset fees associated with the licensing agreement.

The license agreement will remain in effect until March 2023.

SAVE Grant Council members adopted a resolution to accept $24,300 from California’s Division of Boating and Waterways (DBW) as part of the state’s Surrendered and Abandoned Vessel Exchange (SAVE) program. The grant funds are part of California’s efforts to remove derelict or ditched crafts as part of the Abandoned Watercraft Abatement Fund (AWAF) and Vessel Turn-In Program (VTIP) initiatives.

Coronado previously accepted $37,400 in SAVE grant funds in December 2016 and applied for a new round of funding after the state, in September 2017, announced funds would be available for local agencies to address abandoned or derelict vessels.

“Occasionally, abandoned recreational vessels become beached in Coronado as a result of poor seamanship, weather events, and unlawful operations, especially vessels anchored in the Zuniga Shoal that break free and drift toward and land on the city beach,” city staff told council members in a report. “These abandoned, derelict vessels pose a safety hazard to beach visitors, present environmental hazards to the beach and nearshore waters, as well as become a public nuisance.

“Most of the vessels are not seaworthy and the owners often do not have insurance or the resources to properly care for the vessels or arrange for their removal once aground,” city staff continued.

Coronado previously spent about $23,000 in unbudgeted funds to address abandoned or adrift vessels, according to city staff.

License Agreement with U.S. Navy City officials also sought to continue its relationship with the U.S. Navy, as Coronado and the federal armed forces branch will continue a five-year license agreement for use of a portion of Glorietta Bay waterfront.

Both the city of Coronado and U.S. Navy have maintained a standing agreement for recreational use of the area in front of Coronado Club Room and Boathouse, according to a city staff

Public input sought for alternative to ethanol fuels

By Parimal M. Rohit

The isobutonal additive was clearly defined in the EPA notice.

“Isobutanol is a flammable colorless liquid that is used as a gasoline additive and as an industrial solvent,” the EPA notice explained. “Isobutanol is composed of the chemical elements hydrogen, oxygen, and carbon and it can be made from petroleum or renewable biomass, such as corn, grasses, agricultural waste and other renewable sources. It can be used in internal combustion engines as an additive to gasoline.”

NMMA has urged boaters to submit comments to the EPA en masse, hoping such a campaign would eventually lead to biobutanol becoming readily available on the market.

The advocacy group specifically

WASHINGTON, D.C. — A manufacturer of biobutanol wants to be able to use the additive in gasoline, according to a Federal Register notice issued by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

Butamax Advance Biofuels specifically submitted an application to register biobutanol – also known as isobutanol – as a gasoline additive at up to 16 volume percent.

Public comment on the application will be accepted through April 30.

“Butamax has submitted information that would likely satisfy the applicable registration requirements,” the EPA stated in its public notice.

“The Clean Air Act requires the EPA to register a fuel or fuel additive once all the applicable registration requirements have been met by the manufacturer. Due to the potential for the widespread introduction of isobutanol into commerce, we are taking steps to make the public aware of the likelihood of this Boating advocacy groups are making a strong push to introduce biobutanol – registration. or isobutonal – gasoline blends into the marine fuel supply.

April officially decreed Donate Life Month in Avalon

By Devon Warren

AVALON — As many as 22 people who are on a wait list for organ transplants die every hour, Avalon City Council member Cinde MacGugan-Cassidy stated while reading a proclamation instating Donate Life Month into Catalina Island’s written history on April 3. The proclamation encourages Avalon residents to become organ donors and help chip away at the statistic Cassidy cited during the April 3 City Council meeting.

Cassidy, in an email correspondence with The Log, stated this event was near and dear to her heart and the issue of organ donations has personally affected her.

“I have known friends whose lives have been prolonged by receiving bone marrow from donors,” Cassidy said. “I have known two major organ recipients whose lives have been saved by transplants. One is a dear, dear friend who just received a heart transplant late last year.”

While some can feel a touch squeamish when it comes to blood, bone marrow or organ donations or cannot participate for religious, health or personal reasons, making the choice to give of oneself in this way could be

considered the ultimate altruistic act.

Avalon’s City Council has taken steps to officiate this day and bring public awareness to a subject that impacts Californians and American citizens across the nation alike, with more than 21,000 people in California and about 114,000 nationwide currently awaiting organ donations.

“I feel it is important to raise

awareness for the donor opportunities and I do so when opportunities arise,” Cassidy continued. “I myself have been an organ donor since age 18 and hope someday when my time is up, my last efforts will [help] to save the lives of others.”

For those on the island who wish to register as an organ donor, representatives for the Department of Motor

Vehicles (DMV) will be in Avalon on April 23-25.

“The DMV won’t be here during our next council meeting, so last week’s meeting [April 3] is the only real attention we were able to give at this time,” Cassidy said.

Illegal Charters From page 18

ing problems with illegal charters also takes precedence.

The major priorities of SDHP have been public safety and charters, illegal or otherwise, that are operating in an unsafe manner, such as speeding or boating under the influence.

Banuelos also mentions responding to the community continues to be important and among other pressing issues, such as marine fires, homeland security, property crime, homeless crime and marijuana’s legalization, that SDHP is openly working towards solutions. If any illegal charter is operating in an unsafe way or violating local law, Banuelos ensures harbor patrol will respond.

Coast Guard Warnings While there has been something going on behind the scenes, the process is slow and takes time and any amendments would also need to go before The Port Commissioner’s Board.

Board Officials had hoped to tackle the problem and provide educational material to the public, which was provided by the United States Coast Guard in June 2017.

Carrying more than 12 passengers on a vessel requires a Coast Guard approved Certificate of Inspection.

Marina Fest 2018 will focus on Marina del Rey’s history and on-water activities

By Devon Warren

MARINA DEL REY — The 8th Annual Marina Fest is coming to Burton Chace Park with an array of boating and Marina-del-Rey-centered activities for all ages. More than 40 exhibitors will represent the city at the show, which will be held May 19-20.

A major highlight of this year’s Marina Fest is celebrating the local and historic aspects that make up Marina del Rey’s colorful coastal community.

“Marina Fest, now in its eighth year, is a community event featuring all aspects of activities available in Marina del Rey,” Russ Carrington, a producer of the show, told The Log. “This year it includes Discover Marina del Rey, a county-sponsored event, featuring local government agencies,” Some of the highlights planned for this year’s event include the in-water boat show, where boating enthusiasts will have the chance to view a variety of yachts, sailboats and fishing boats.

Two historic tall ships, Irving Johnson and Exy Johnson, will be in the vicinity, giving around 10 groups of elementary school students the opportunity

to climb aboard. Steve Curran, one of the show’s producers, said the tall ship exhibit is a personal highlight for him as his mother was a third-grade school teacher and that her family first arrived from Tacoma, Washington via boat.

Curran said, “Sometimes we forget about our past, but it’s important to remember where we come from.”

Free boating excursions will be provided by Carefree Boating Club, and electric bike and paddleboard demonstrations will also be on offer as well.

The Kid’s Zone will keep children busy with face painting, bounce houses and crafts.

Live music and a DJ will set the atmosphere.

The boat show is $10 with kids under 15 gaining entry for free. Some Kids’ Zone activities, such as the bounce houses, will have a $5 fee. All activities on site at Burton Chace Park are free, including the historic harbor tours and Tall Ships.

Burton Chace Park is located at Mindanao Way in Marina del Rey. For more information about the event or to inquire about exhibiting or sponsoring Marina Fest, visit the website at marinafest.com.

Southern California’s boating and fishing capital Marinas, dock-and-dine, sportfishing and superyachts dominate at America’s Finest City.

By Parimal M. Rohit SAN DIEGO — The morbid future presented in the 1993 film “Demolition Man” was set in the city of “San Angeles” – an amalgamation of San Diego and Los Angeles. Urban sprawl of both cities was growing at such a fast rate back then the film’s writer appear to have jokingly predicted California’s two largest cities would merge together into one mega-metropolis by 2032 (the film’s present day).

Nearly 25 years later the metropolitan regions remain separated by a military base and some rugged terrain. Perhaps we’ll never see San Angeles come to fruition, allowing America’s Finest City to maintain its own identity as one of the nation’s top maritime and nautical destinations.

San Diego is a major draw for Southern California’s boating and sportfishing communities, with dozens of offshore fishing jaunts departing from the region’s many landings and thousands upon thousands of boaters calling the nation’s eighth largest city home. Boaters who dock or anchor in the San Diego region have the gamut of activities to explore – assuming they actually want to get off their boat.

The Port of San Diego, for example, is an urban boating paradise – with dock-and-dine restaurants dotting the waterfront and anchorages or moorings available at several locations within the bay.

Cities such as Chula Vista and National City are great for sailboats, as the waters within the South Bay region of San Diego are calm and pleasant.

The Shelter Island area is home to dozens of sportfishing boats and landings – a perfect desti-

nation for anyone seeking to go offshore fishing and bring home some tuna.

Both Shelter and Harbor islands are home to a variety of marinas and yacht clubs catering to the many whims of local and regional boaters.

Change is in the air as the Port of San Diego is pursuing ambitious plans to revitalize the waterfront. Boating amenities would be greatly enhanced should these ambitions come to pass – though the effect of such changes on boaters won’t be known for a few years.

Mission Bay offers boaters a “quieter” space for boaters who want to recreate but in a more park-like setting. The Mission Bay area is a popular destination for kayaking, jet skiing and standup paddleboard use.

Anyone who gets off their boats and explore San Diego by land will have plenty of activities to discover, such as dining at Gaslamp Quarter, enjoying Balboa Park or taking part in many of the art, food or music festivals planned throughout the year.

Those who enjoy camping or hiking won’t have to trek too far as San Diego’s inland features trails and other diverse natural resources.

Also inland are several freshwater lakes, where locals flock in search of trout, catfish and other fish.

San Diego essentially has a little something for everyone. Our inaugural San Diego Issue delves in to a few things local boaters can experience when visiting America’s Finest City. The guide also features a listing of upcoming events, resources for boaters to use once docked in town, insight on local amenities and happenings, and a few dashes of history.

Stay classy San Diego – hopefully you never become San Angeles.

Port district angled to become the world’s capital for 100-, 200and 300-foot vessels.

By Parimal M. Rohit SAN DIEGO — Sure as America’s Finest City is known for its sunshine is the reveler who takes a moment to pull out his or her cell phone and snap a few photos of the exotic vessels docked at San Diego’s Fifth Avenue Landing.

The boutique marina just in front of San Diego’s Convention Center started as a pilot program in 2008, as Southern California’s second city began its push to be a destination for megayachts and superyachts. Fifth Avenue Landing, more than one decade later, has 12 slips for yachts up to 300 feet in size – an upgrade from the marina’s “humble” beginnings as a berthing home for 100and 200-foot yachts.

A walk along San Diego’s downtown embarcadero just below the Marriott

Marquis and alongside the Convention Center will reveal no shortage of those who are either ogling at the berthed megayachts/superyachts or snapping a selfie in front of a 200-plus-foot vessel.

These revelers, for the most part, aren’t let down, as Fifth Street Landing – one of the most unique marinas in a city known for recreational boating – generally has its fair share of ultra large yachts berthed within one of its slips. Those who do dock at the 12-slip boutique marina receive complimentary concierge for captain and crew, individual pumpout service and shore power, among other berthing amenities.

San Diego clearly didn’t start the superyacht marinas – such venues already exist in European countries such as France, Italy, Monaco and Spain. Port Hercule in Monaco garners significant attention due to its proximity to the Monaco Grand Prix.

Port Tarraco (Spain, 64 slips) and Marina di Portofino (Italy, 14 slips) are, due to their respective small sizes,

known for being exclusive. Marinas such as Port de Saint Tropez (France, 700-plus berths) and Yas Marina (United Arab Emirates, 227 berths) are also major draws for those who own yachts of 100 feet or larger.

The Port of San Diego, nonetheless, hopes Fifth Avenue Landing – which was pushed by a group of people who started the San Diego Superyacht Association in 2006 – would be among the elite venues for megayacht/superyacht owners. Port district officials hoped the boutique

San Diego’s “Fishy” History: The Birth of Tuna Fisheries Formation of commercial fishing industry in early 1900s helped San Diego become synonymous with seafood.

SAN DIEGO — The pier adjacent to Seaport Village in Downtown San Diego is often crowded each Saturday morning. Seafood lovers arrive at the pier to greet a handful of commercial fishermen, who spent the preceding few hours catching tuna and other fish species off the San Diego coast, bringing them back to shore to sell to consumers.

Those consumers come to the Tuna Harbor Dockside Market every Saturday morning at 8 a.m., in hopes of finding – and buying – the freshest of catches. Purchases made that morning more than likely turns into lunch or dinner later in the day.

The Tuna Harbor Dockside Market – an open-air seafood market spearheaded by the Port of San Diego – is a microcosm and reminder of what once existed in San Diego. Southern California’s southernmost metropolis was once home to a thriving tuna fishery.

Founding of the American Tuna Fishery San Diego is often credited with birthing the American tuna fishery. The industry traces back to 1903, when a sardine packer in San Pedro switched to canning of albacore.

“Consumers’ acceptance of canned tuna soon led to the development of fishing fleets in both San Diego and San Pedro,” a research paper published by the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) in July 1978 stated.

“San Diego became the major base for the fleet, a position it continues to hold [through 1978].”

The first cannery opened its doors in 1909; the first tuna cannery arrived two years later.

“In the ensuing half-century, the city would earn its title as the ‘Tuna Capital of the World.’ By the 1960s, San Diego’s third-largest industry would be tuna, preceded only by the Navy and aerospace,” a blog post on the San Diego Food System Alliance website stated. “Catching, canning, and marketing of tuna would employ up to 40,000 San Diegans.”

A high demand of canned albacore on the East Coast fostered the growth of the tuna fishery in San Diego, The Journal of San Diego History stated in a published report, “The Origins of California’s High-Seas Tuna Fleet.”

Japanese and Portuguese Influence The tuna fishery’s establishment and expansion in San Diego coincided with an influx of Japanese and

San Diego was once home to one of the largest tuna fisheries in the United States. Today a portion of San Diego Bay is used as an open-air seafood market, as the port district hopes revive the local commercial fishery.

Portuguese immigration to the area.

Fishermen from both immigrant groups were instrumental in developing fishing techniques that defined an entire industry.

“San Diego’s first cannery, the Pacific Tuna Canning Company, became the second operational tuna cannery in Southern California,” the research paper, authored by August Felando and Harold Medina stated.

“The San Diego-based cannery obtained its albacore supply from small fishing boats manned by Japanese and Portuguese immigrants who caught the tuna by trolling with artificial lures, fishing with baited hand-line gear, and utilizing the bamboo pole method.”

Felando and Medina added Japanese immigrants – not just in terms of fishing techniques but also with sheer numbers – heavily influenced the commercial tuna market.

“In 1913, the Japanese immigrant fishermen incorporated themselves into the Japanese Fishermen’s Association of San Diego. The Japanese influence in San Diego kept growing so that by 1918, Japanese immigrants owned or operated more than 45 fishing vessels in San Diego, while more than 200 fishermen were members of the Japanese Fishermen’s Association,” Felando and Medina stated in their report.

Post-World War I Era San Diego’s commercial fishing industry performed well during The Great War. The end of World War I in 1918, however, caused the industry to slow down significantly. Tuna canneries shut down permanently, merged together or allowed themselves to be acquired by 1922, according to Felando and Medina.

The economic downturn after World War I caused many Japanese fishermen to head south of the border and pursue opportunities in Mexico.

“A large portion of the history of Japanese involvement in the tuna industry, especially in Baja California, revolved around Kondo Masaharu,” Felando and Medina stated. “With financial backing from Japanese investors and fishing concessions acquired from the Mexican government, Kondo’s new company employed 70 Japanese tuna fishermen to operate four fishing vessels.

“Turtle Bay was selected as a base of operation because its natural harbor catered to tenders from San Diego and because the site had tuna fishing grounds that were productive after the end of the albacore/ bluefin seasons of Southern California,” Felando and Medina continued in their research paper.

San Diego’s commercial fishing industry, meanwhile, continued to experience its ups and downs through the Great Depression and World War II.

Modernization and Industry Peak Bait boats were mostly used until the late 1950s, when fishing vessels switched from hook-and-line fishing to mechanized purse seining.

“In 1969, the realization of huge profits to be made in tuna fishing led to rapid expansion of the fleet. Not only were many new vessels constructed, but the boats were larger and faster than their predecessors,” Steve Rockland stated in his 1978 NMFSpublished report, “The San Diego Tuna Industry and its Employment Impact on the Local Economy.”

“Whereas in 1969, the San Diego tuna fleet had a total fishhold capacity of 31,750 tons, by 1974 this figure had grown to 52,840 tons,” Rockland continued.

Rockland added most of the tuna reeled in by the San Diego fleet were either skipjack or yellowfin.

“Skipjack tuna caught in these

waters usually range between 4 and 7 pounds and are the least valuable of the tunas,” Rockland said. “This is because their small size makes them more costly for the canneries to process, resulting in the lowest yield of canned product per ton of raw fish.

The yellowfin tuna normally accounts for the greatest tonnage. Valuewise, the yellowfin tuna ranks second to albacore in per unit value.”

Tuna Industry Today A “kill quota” implemented in 1975 substantially harmed San Diego’s fishing fleet. Boats were required to limit their bycatch, ultimately causing Bumble Bee Seafoods and Van Camp Seafood Cannery to close its doors in the early 1980s.

The San Diego fleet today consists of about 130 active vessels, according to the San Diego Food System Alliance.

Legislation passed in 2015 created the “Pacific to Plate” initiative, a plan where commercial fishermen can sell their catches directly to consumers.

The public policy opened the door for San Diego’s Tuna Harbor Dockside Market, where fishermen and consumers meet each Saturday, between 8 a.m. and 1 p.m.

The open-air seafood market sells more than just tuna. Black cod, for example, is available year-round.

Also sold at the market, according to an April 7 report, were box crab, live octopus, halibut, whole mahi mahi, ahi loin, wahoo filet, boat-frozen squid and opah filet. Prices ranged from $3.50 to $25 per pound.

Legislators hope the “Pacific to Plate” initiative will help revive San Diego’s commercial fishery. Be sure to visit the Tuna Harbor Dockside Market at Seaport Village, if you have plans to dock along the Downtown San Diego waterfront on a Saturday morning.

Explore San Diego’s top dock and dine destinations SAN DIEGO — The weather and many recreational activities in San Diego make taking your boat out for a spin in San Diego one of the best outings in the nation. One of the perks to being out on the water in San Diego: “Dock and Dine” destinations.

Dock and Dine options, which allow boaters to conveniently dock their vessels near local eateries, are abundant in San Diego.

In San Diego, Dock and Dine is encouraged by the Port of San Diego as a way for boaters to leave behind the hassle of traffic and finding a parking space. A listing of top restaurants can be found on their website at portofsandiego.org/maritime/dock-anddine.html.

The Log has compiled a few of our boater’s favorite locations that have their own docks. Here’s just a flavor of what San Diego has to offer.

Bali Hai Restaurant Vibe & History: News outlets across the nation, from Thrillist to The Log’s very own Capt. Nicole, have extensively covered Bali Hai, one of the last tikithemed restaurants of its kind on the California Coast. While this location is known for its historical place in San Diego (and for the fantastic cocktails that came from Polynesian-inspired restaurants such as the Mai Tai), Bali Hai Restaurant is considered a go-to Dock and Dine destination. There is a reason it has been around for more than 50 years and continues to be a hot spot.

Cost: Moderate.

Menu items: Includes Polynesianinspired fare, a brunch buffet with free-flowing champagne, gluten-free options and more.

The San Diego Maritime Museum hosts 7th annual Chocolate Festival

By Devon Warren

SAN DIEGO — Some might say eating chocolate is a close second to feeling the Pacific Ocean’s breeze in your hair aboard a classic, historic boat. The San Diego Maritime Museum will combine the enjoyment of chocolate and Pacific Ocean breeze into one event on the city’s downtown waterfront, April 29.

Chocoholics and boaters alike will not want to miss the 7th annual Chocolate Festival, A Celebration of Chocolate on the Bay, which is sure to have mouths watering.

The Chocolate Festival will return to The San Diego Maritime Museum on Sunday, April 29 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Each guest will receive complimentary chocolate at the ticket booth as they purchase a ticket; the festival features several vendors hosting events and

activities on the museum’s iconic ships.

Patrons might be puzzled – why would The Maritime Museum, an on-water museum featuring various famous vessels such as Star of India, be an ideal location for a chocolate festival? As it turns out, chocolate has a storied history and arrived here via seafaring travels, which attendees will have the opportunity to learn about when they come to the event.

San Diego’s hotel marinas offer boaters a home away from home for their vessels

By Devon Warren

SAN DIEGO — Arguably one of the best parts of owning a boat is navigating on

the water, especially here in California.

It’s easy to cut out traffic and bask in the sun.

Many San Diego hotels also have marinas where a guest slip can be reserved when visiting, which allows travelers to take his or her boat along on vacation. One of the prime boating locations in the world, enjoying the waterfront of a four-star hotel and being able to immerse oneself in the on-water activities offered attracts seafarers all over the world to this destination.

Shelter Island Boating enthusiasts are definitely going to enjoy staying here, which is considered one of the most nautical areas in San Diego. Some hotel marinas with the most impressive reputations, such as Kona Kai Marina, are located here. Shelter Island, at one time, incorporated the classic tiki style, became popular in the earlier half of the 20th century, into its buildings and infrastructure. The style might have waned a bit, but Shelter Island still maintains a small-town charm about it and is cruising distance to bustling Downtown San Diego.

Kona Kai Marina, which is known for accommodating 30-foot vessels to 250-foot superyachts, is a stylish resort getaway destination. High-end resorts such as Kona Kai Marina provide an array of outdoor activities to enjoy from jet-skiing to kayaking and paddleboarding. In addition to a private beach and spa, Kona Kai can help those who don’t have a boat rent one or they even advertise they can direct guests to Kusler Yachts, if they are ready to take the plunge and buy a boat.

Hotels like Best Western Plus Island

Palms Hotel and Marina is in the more affordable bracket and accommodates small boats ranging from 20 feet to larger yachts measuring 200 feet.

Amenities such as water, electricity, Wi-Fi and access to the hotel’s restaurants are included in the stay.

Shelter Island hosts abundant hotels with marinas, so boaters can take their pick at this destination.

Downtown San Diego There is no shortage of lively enjoyment in Downtown San Diego, which is loaded with fun activities for the entire family, including the Gaslamp District, Coronado Ferry, Seaport Village and the Maritime Museum of San Diego.

While boaters can set sail in San Diego Bay, family members who might not be as keen to spend the whole trip on a boat can find tons of shopping and other activities to keep them entertained.

One of the most reputable hotel and marina combos can be found in the heart of the downtown waterfront: Marriott Marquis San Diego Marina.

Jerry Lewis, at one time, rumor has it, docked his boat here. The Marriott overlooks San Diego Bay, and has some of the best reviews in the city.

In addition, the Marriott offers many deals and discounts to military, AAA or CCC members and a reward point system for those who come to stay often.

Mission Bay Home to SeaWorld, Mission Bay offers many outdoor activities to keep boaters busy. Sportfishing boats depart often for half-day, full-day and multiday trips and there is an emphasis on

all kinds of on-water activities such as surfing, sailing, paddleboarding, wake boarding and many other activities.

Paradise Point is one such hotel and marina where guests have tons of options when it comes to vacationing or stay-cationing. Modeled as a tropical island resort, Paradise Point has a private, full-service marina and offers dock and dine options for its restaurant Barefoot Bar & Grill. Various aquatic lessons, such as kayaking, motor boating, and jet skiing can be learned and enjoyed here.

Port of San Diego Reservations & Other Areas San Diego is a large, sprawling county and there are many cities and neighborhoods that make up this recreational boating haven. It’s impossible to explore the entire area in one day and visitors, even locals, are sure to enjoy something new every time they visit.

Because San Diego has so many sailing events, regattas and more, Port of San Diego wanted to make those activities more accessible to boaters.

For boaters who wish to bring their boats, but cannot make up their minds on which hotel to stay at or are staying with family or friends, the Port of San Diego provides temporary anchorage and guest dock areas. A reservation website can be viewed at portofsandiego.org/recreation/guest-slip-reservations.html. Anchorages can be reserved for a maximum of 72 hours, while guest docks allow stays up to 15 days in a 40-day period.

Wherever boaters decide to drop their anchors, they can be assured that they – and their vessels – will be welcomed in San Diego.

The Transpacific Yacht Race will celebrate its 50th running when sailors begin the trek from Los Angeles to Hawai’i on July 10, 2019. The race committee is now accepting entries for the 2,225-nautical-mile race.

Registration open for 50th Transpac Yacht Race The L.A.-to-Hawai’i competition will celebrate 50th running in 2019.

By Parimal M. Rohit

LOS ANGELES — Entries for the 50th edition of the Transpacific Yacht Race are now open as the Notice of Race for Transpac 50 was formally published, it was announced April 10.

The competition kicks off July 10, 2019, with yachts competing against each other from Los Angeles to

Honolulu, a 2,225-mile course. Next year’s race will feature an Aloha Class and separate divisions for monohulls and multihulls. The Aloha Class is catered for heavier, more traditional vessels (as opposed to downwind flyers).

Last year’s Transpac was record-breaking, what with Comanche, a 100-foot all-carbon monohull vessel, finishing in 5 days, 1 hours, 55 minutes and 26 seconds, the fastest time ever.

Mighty Merloe, an ORMA 60 trimaran, also set a time record with its 4-day, 6-hour, 32-minute and 30-second finish.

The 86-foot schooner Lurline, for

perspective, finished the first Transpac in 1906 in 12 hours and 10 days.

Transpacific Yacht Club has organized Transpac since 1906. The yacht race across the Pacific Ocean has pitted 1,980 boats against each other, to date.

The 2019 edition will likely see participant number 2,000 – a landmark the race’s organizers would certainly celebrate.

The standard application fee for the next Transpac is $250 and must be submitted by March 1, 2019. A late application fee will be in effect for all registrations between March 2, 2019 and May 31, 2019. Entry fees are based

on overall length of yacht.

Racing starts July 10, 2019; the awards ceremony will be held a few days later in Honolulu. Awards include King Kalakaua (First Corrected Time Overall), Barn Door Trophy (First Monohull to Finish), Rudy Choi Trophy (Fastest Elapsed Time, Multihull), New Course Record/Roy E. Disney Clock Trophy (new record for fast elapsed time by monohull) and Mark S. Rudiger Celestial Navigation Trophy.

Illegal marine poaching bill clears first committee AB 2369 proposes to stiffen penalties for poaching activities in Marine Protected Areas.

By Parimal M. Rohit

SACRAMENTO — A bill proposing to impose heftier fines on illegal poaching activities in Marine Protected Areas (MPA) cleared its first legislative hurdle, April 10, as the Assembly Committee on Water, Parks and Wildlife voted to push Assembly Bill 2369 (AB 2369) forward.

Assembly member Lorena Gonzalez Fletcher (D-San Diego) introduced AB 2369 earlier this year. The bill proposes fines of $5,000 to $40,000 for businesses found guilty of poaching in an MPA; the first infraction fine could also include up to one year of jail time, as part of a misdemeanor conviction.

A second MPA poaching violation would result on the loss of fishing

license, up to one year in jail (also as part of a misdemeanor conviction) and a fine of $10,000 to $50,000.

AB 2369 now heads to the Assembly’s Appropriations Committee; the bill would have to gain the support of the full Assembly before being considered by the State Senate. Gonzalez Fletcher’s bill would go to the governor if it gains majority support in both legislative houses.

Gonzalez Fletcher called illegal MPA poaching a “dire threat to … marine wildlife” and said the current system of fines and punishment is, effectively, a slap on the wrist for local fishing businesses that allegedly poach Marine Protected Areas.

Current law specifically limits fines to $1,000 per violation, according to a legislative analysis of AB 2369; jail sentences are limited to six months.

“In 2015, a commercial fisherman was fined a mere $220 for having set 200 hagfish traps within a no-take State Marine Reserve,” Gonzalez Fletcher

stated in defense of AB 2369. “These low fines can be easily absorbed by businesses when catch such as spiny lobster can sell for as much as $32 per pound.

In contrast, penalties for the illegal trophy hunting of animals like deer and elk include fines between $5,000 to $40,000, and/or up to a year imprisonment in county jail.”

Assembly committee hearing on lead fishing ban rescheduled SACRAMENTO — Legislative plans to ban lead fishing weights in California appear to have rescheduled, as a committee hearing planned for Assembly Bill 2787 (AB 2787) was taken off the April 10 calendar and pushed back to April 24.

AB 2787 was introduced by Assembly member Bill Quirk in February and proposed to ban lead fishing weights of 50 grams or smaller. The bill was to be heard April 10 in the Assembly’s Committee on Environmental Safety and Toxic Substance.

A review of the April 10 agenda of the Committee on Environmental Safety and Toxic Substance, however, revealed AB 2787 was not on the hearing list for that day.

Sources informed The Log AB 2787 would instead be heard by the same committee on April 24.

The recreational fishing advocacy group, California Sportfishing League (CSL), had sent an email blast five days earlier stating the bill would not be heard by the Assembly committee. CSL is one of the leading advocates against AB 2787, with the advocacy group stating there isn’t enough data or analysis to justify a full-on ban on lead fishing tackle.

Nearly 5,000 anglers signed a petition opposing the bill, according to the CSL email blast.

San Diego Report

Bass, bluefin, yellowtail and more highlight spring fishing

By Bob Vanian SAN DIEGO — The past few weeks have seen some relatively mild weather systems pass through Southern California but that has not prevented the spring fishing season from developing as anglers have been able to go out and catch a variety of species that include bluefin tuna, yellowtail, bonito, calico bass, sand bass, white sea bass, rockfish and halibut.

Bluefin tuna attract a lot of the attention and the action has been hit or miss in finding a hot bite. The past couple of weeks have seen bluefin biting in an area spread from below the 295 Bank on down to the offshore waters outside of San Martin Island for boats fishing between 75 and 140 miles from Point Loma.

Several sportboats were out targeting bluefin from San Diego Bay and Mission Bay on April 14, and their results show the hit and miss nature of getting into a hot bite. Tomahawk out of Seaforth Sportfishing fish a 1.5-day trip with 21 anglers catching their limits of 42 bluefin tuna. Seaforth Sportfishing reported Tomahawk caught bluefin that went to 50 pounds. H&M Landing had Old Glory fishing a 1.5-day trip with 27 anglers and caught 36 yellowtails, 3 bluefin tuna and 1

bonito. Fisherman’s Landing had a 1.5-day trip aboard Condor with 17 anglers who caught two bluefin tuna and two yellowtails. Point Loma Sportfishing had New Lo-An fishing an overnight trip with 32 anglers who caught 25 bonito, 12 yellowtails and three bluefin tuna.

Most of the bluefin tuna have been in the 25- to 40-pound range with an occasional larger fish being found in the mix.

Sonar marks, meter marks, kelp paddies and spots of breaking fish have led to most of the bluefin action. Some of the kelp paddies in the bluefin zone have also been producing some pretty good numbers of yellowtail.

The fishing in the region of Los Coronado Islands has been producing hit or miss action on yellowtail along with a mix of bonito, reds and assorted rockfish.

The yellowtail action has been up and down from one day to the next, with the better days of yellowtail fishing providing very good fishing with near limit-to-limit yellowtail catches.

Recent fish counts aboard San Diego out of Seaforth Sportfishing demonstrate the hit or miss nature of the yellowtail bite from day-to-day. For example, San Diego had 39 anglers on a full-day April 15 trip and returned with 123 rockfish and 107

reds.

On April 14, San Diego had 43 anglers on a full-day trip and returned with 33 yellowtails, 75 whitefish, 40 rockfish and one sheephead. An April 11 full-day trip aboard San Diego had 9 anglers who had excellent yellowtail fishing, with limits of 45 yellowtails and limits of 45 reds.

Boats fishing along the San Diego County coast have been finding occasional yellowtail or white sea bass activity in the La Jolla area. There has been some improvement to report in the yellowtail activity in recent days. A private boater Skipper reported catching two yellowtails while fishing outside of La Jolla, April 16.

Yellowtail have been located in an area ranging from out in front of Mission Bay on up to Torrey Pines with the upper end of La Jolla, Torrey Pines and the area outside of Mission Bay tending to provide the best opportunities for locating some yellowtail.

Schools of bait and porpoise have been indicators of where yellowtail might be found. The upper end of La Jolla has also produced an occasional large white sea bass. The best bet has been fishing with live mackerel along the outside edges of the kelp beds.

Aside from the yellowtail and white sea bass activity in the Mission Bay to Torrey

Pines region, boats fishing along the San Diego County coast have been finding good fishing for a mixed bag of sand bass, calico bass, sculpin, rockfish and an occasional halibut.

Some of the better areas for rockfish in the San Diego region have been the Imperial Beach Pipeline, hard bottom spots outside of the Whistler Buoy at Point Loma, hard bottom areas outside of the Green Tank at Point Loma, the Pine Tree outside of Sunset Cliffs, the 270 out to the west of Mission Bay, La Jolla, Del Mar, Leucadia and Box Canyon.

The spring season is underway and the already good fishing should get nothing but better as the northern weather systems subside and the spring season progresses. Keep on fishing and I hope to see you out on the water!

Commissioners approve phase two of dock-replacement project at Mission Bay.

By Parimal M. Rohit

REDONDO BEACH — The second and final phase of the complete renovation of Seaforth Marina and its sportfishing dock at Mission Bay Park was allowed to move forward, thanks to a California Coastal Commission vote at its April meetings in Redondo Beach.

Seaforth Sportfishing will replace its existing floating wooden docks at Seaforth Boat Rental and Seaforth Marina with “preservative-treated, sealed wooden docks,” while also repositioning 14 existing concrete piles.

“The proposed work will be divided into two stages: (1) the removal and replacement of the rental docks at the Seaforth Boat Rental which cover approximately 4,846 square feet of water area; and (2) the removal and replacement of docks C, D, E, and F and fingers at the Seaforth Marina which cover approximately 23,728 square feet of water,” Coastal Commission staff stated in a report to commissioners.

The project’s first phase focused on

the replacement and reconfiguration of Docks A and B in the marina and the sportfishing dock. Dock F will be reconfigured as part of the project’s second phase.

Construction will not be allowed between Memorial Day and Labor Day, according to Coastal Commission staff, as to ensure public access to Mission Bay is preserved during peak summer months.

Several other marine-themed businesses share the portion of Mission Bay Park where Seaforth Sportfishing is located.

Seaforth Marina, which includes six docks (A through F), was ending the near of its useful life, according to documents shared with the Coastal Commission.

Eelgrass is not present at the project site, according to Coastal Commission staff.

Mission Bay is a public park located a few miles north of San Diego Bay and is a popular destination for active and passive recreational uses, including boating, jet skiing and other uses. The area is also home to wildlife refuges, least tern nesting sites, yacht clubs and restaurants.

Seaforth Sportfishing is located at 1717 Quivira Road in San Diego.

SALTWATER OCEAN FISHING REPORT

By Terrence Berg 976-TUNA.com BLUEFIN CONTINUE TO SHOW: The bluefin tuna continue to show in fair numbers with fish to 60 pounds reported. The action has been on boats running to the offshore banks near San Clemente with some further south in Mexican waters. This action has been for the 1.5-day to three-day trips.

Oxnard, Ventura, and Santa Barbara region boats are all reporting mostly limits of rockfish on half-day to overnight trips when wind allows them offshore.

At Channel Islands Sportfishing in Oxnard, Island Tak had four anglers on a full-day trip and landed 40 rockfish, 18 whitefish, one sheephead, and one sculpin. Gentleman was on a threequarter-day trip with 38 anglers on April 10 and landed 380 assorted rockfish, 45 whitefish, 25 sculpin, and one sheephead.

IN MEMORIAM Norman Taniguchi, heir to family-owned fishing supply business Taniguchi Inc., has died POINT LOMA — Norman “Norm” Yoshio Taniguchi, the last heir to family-owned commercial fishing supply business Taniguchi Inc., died on April 2 at his Point Loma home.

The cause of death was not immediately available.

Born on Dec. 11, 1954, Taniguchi was the second child of Takeharu and Nellie Taniguchi, who made their family home in the fishing-and-boating-centered Point Loma neighborhood of San Diego.

Taniguchi was an alumnus of Point Loma High School, graduating in 1973, and went on to receive a BA in business from San Diego State University.

After college, Taniguchi joined the family business, Taniguchi Inc., where with the help of his parents and brother, Vern, was involved in developing one of the original stand-up harness and pad used for longrange fishing. Taniguchi Inc. was founded by Norman’s parents, who are also deceased.

Family members said one of Taniguchi’s favorite times of year was attending the annual Fred Hall Show and Del Mar Boat Show, where he enjoyed gathering with friends. His family also mentioned Taniguchi was an avid reader of The Log and never missed reading each issue that hit newsstands.

A lover of the great outdoors, Taniguchi fished in many tournaments, enjoyed golf, dove hunting and a weekly luncheon with his friends in Tijuana.

After the unexpected death of his brother, he was the sole caretaker of his beloved mother’s poodles, Lucky and Ronnie.

Taniguchi is survived by his aunts, Mary and Ruth Nagano, and cousins who reside in Northern California.

(Clockwise from top left) Alex of the San Fernando Valley hopped aboard Capt. Chris Volaski’s New Hustler (out of Hook’s Landing in Oxnard) on April 14 and caught a 12-pound white sea bass near Outer Island (Channel Islands area). Anglers aboard Thunderbird out of Davey’s Locker in Newport Beach spent a portion of April 11 fishing the waters off Orange County and returning to shore with three lingcod and limits of rockfish. An angler aboard Capt. Pica’s Reel Fun shows off the triggerfish he reeled in during an April 16 jaunt out of Dana Wharf Sportfishing. San Diego out of Seaforth Sportfishing, meanwhile, checked in with limits of yellowtail during an April 14 jaunt.
