The global challenge is to raise awareness for climate change and encourage solidarity and action with the world’s most vulnerable communities. By: JORDAN B. DARLING

N E W Y O R K — The United Nations

O f fi c e f o r t h e C o o r d i n a t i o n o f Humanitarian Affairs announced the launch of #TheHumanRace, the World Humanitarian Day race, on Aug. 2. The global campaign is spotlighting the dangers of climate change, its effects on marginalized communities, and encourages governments around the globe to commit to fighting climate change. “With over 88 million athletes in 195 countries, the Strava community has the power to unlock solutions to some of the world’s most critical problems. That’s why we invite athletes and people everywhere to join this challenge to raise awareness of climate change and its disproportionate impact on marginalized communities,” said Michael Horvath, Strava CEO, in an Aug. 2 press release. Participants around the world are encouraged to log 100 cumulative minutes

of either walking, running, swimming, cycling, or any sport of their choice on the Strava website between Aug. 16-31 to mark World Humanitarian Day on Aug. 19. World Humanitarian Day commemorates humanitarian workers who were killed or injured while they were working, it was designated in memory of an Aug. 19, 2003, bomb attack on the Canal Hotel in Baghdad, Iraq that killed 22 people. The day was formalized as a world remembrance day by the General Assembly in 2009. For those that cannot participate in the race, another option is to sign a pledge on the #TheHumanRace website that will call on countries to fulfil a 12-year-old pledge to provide $100 billion a year for developing nations to respond to climate change and support climate adaptation. The race comes a couple of months ahead of the UN Climate Change Conference set to be held in Glasgow, Scotland Oct. 31 through Nov. 12. António Guterres, secretary-general for the UN calls 2021 the world’s ‘makeor-break year’ and is calling for “a major breakthrough” to slow the pace of climate change and build resilience to protect the most vulnerable from increasingly severe and frequent climate impacts. The press release states that the activity will aim a spotlight on the global impacts of climate change, prolonged droughts, extreme and intensified weath-

Several organizations and professional athletes like Olympic silver medalist Francine Niyonsaba, and climate activists like Adenike Oladosu of Nigeria and Mitzi Jonelle Tan from the Philippines, have pledged themselves to participate in the event. “I am excited to run for the most important goal in our lifetime: to save our planet and the people living on it,” said Fernando Maciel, a world-class ultramarathon athlete, in the Aug. 2 press re-

lease. “We run every day, for ourselves, why not run for something bigger? Everybody should join #TheHumanRace because we need compassion and it is time to run together.” According to the UN, climate-related natural disasters, like floods, droughts, and heatwaves have doubled in the past 20 years and have had the strongest impact on developing countries and marginalized communities.

BIZARRE

By: LINDSEY GLASGOW CHEBOYGAN RIVER, MI— A message in a bottle tossed into Michigan’s Cheboygan River in 1926 has resurfaced, and thanks to some invested members of the public, the message has brought back a lot of good memories for the writer’s daughter. Jennifer Dowker, who is a boat captain and owner of Nautical North Family Adventures, runs shipwreck tours all summer long in Michigan’s waterways and was scuba diving to clean the windows on the bottom of her glass-bottomed boat, the Yankee Sunshine, on a June day when a small green bottle caught her eye. She picked up the bottle and when she got back on board, she noticed a note inside and was able to fish it out and gently unroll it to read the message. The note was dated November 1926 and read: “Will the person who finds this bottle return this paper to George Morrow Cheboygan, Michigan and tell where it was found?” She posted pictures of the find and the message on Nautical North Family Adventures Facebook page asking if any

Morrows know a George Morrow that would’ve written this circa 1926. She woke up the next day to find her post had gone viral. It has now been shared more than 100,000 times and has more than 6,000 comments from people offering tips, or who just wanted to know more about the story. One of the commenters was René Szatkowski who wrote, “I FOUND THE DAUGHTER!!!! They do not have Facebook ... she is ecstatic!” According to various news outlets, Dowker was connected to Morrow’s daughter, Michele Primeau, who said her dad’s birthday was in November and he would have been 17 or 18 when he wrote the note and threw the bottle in the river. Primeau told news outlets her dad died in 1995 and the discovery has brought back a lot of good memories. Primeau told USA TODAY her dad would do sentimental things like that. “I remember when we were changing the medicine cabinet in our bathroom and we found a message that my dad had written on the wall,” Primeau told USA TODAY.

Letters/Online Comments RE: “Commissioners Approve 8-Week

Pause for In-Water Hull Cleaning in Shelter Island Yacht Basin”

(JUNE 25 – JULY 8)

I do not see how this pause can come to a scientific conclusion. The thicker algae barrier from not cleaning will insulate the copper leaching into the water. Then this more toxic algae buildup will be more aggressively cleaned and released in the water. It also rains about 3 inches December to February which needs to be taken into account. It would be helpful to all if the Port would be transparent on the testing and reported to the Log. — Anonymous

increase in slip rent proposed by Bellwether Financial contains a number of misleading statements by Mr. Ueberroth. For instance, while the Dana Point harbor has virtually no amenities for boaters, other than rest rooms not upgraded since probably the 70›s (and no amenities to be added in the revitalization), the Newport Beach marinas on which Bellwether bases the proposed increase mostly have such amenities, like the pool, lounge and restaurant in Newport Dunes Marina, which is also a Ueberroth marina. To suggest any boater is “excited” about the so-called revitalization is laughable. The only things boaters are getting is replacement of some docks that have been crumbling for years, and, of course, a whopping, unreasonable slip increase. — Dennis

FAST FACTS

Fast Facts: Sailing in the Olympics By: LINDSEY GLASGOW

PARIS — Its off to the races for the competitors in the

2020 Olympic Games in Toyoko. The games kicked off July 23 and the sailing events began on July 25. Sailing is one of the oldest sports on the Olympic program and its Olympic history includes some of the sporting world’s great figures. The ancient version of the Games was first held in Greece around 776 BC as a tribute to Zeus, the god of sky and thunder. In 1894 the idea was put forward to resurrect the concept of the games by French historian and academic Baron Pierre de Coubertin. On June 16, 1894, the first Olympic Congress was declared open in the auditorium of the Sorbonne University in Paris and the desire was expressed for nautical sports - rowing, sailing, and swimming - to be on the Olympic program. The first modern Games, held in Athens, Greece as a tribute to its roots, were held two years later in 1896.

Sailing was on the program, but rain, heavy winds, and powerful waves that knocked lighter vessels on shore created conditions unsafe for competition in Phaleron Bay, according to the NBC Olympics website. Sailing was first contested at the 1900 Olympic Games and the competition included cash prizes for the winners in an era in which athletes were supposed to be competing for the love of sport, not money, according to the NBC Olympics website. The yachting competition also featured more than one final for each class and an adjustment of the times for each vessel based on the weight of its crew. Sailing made its next Olympic appearance in 1908 and has been on every Olympic program since that year. It wouldn’t be until 1988 that women would be included in the event. At the International Olympic Committee Executive Board meeting held in July and August of 1984 in Los Angeles, it was decided to add the 470 dinghy event for women to the program of the Games in Seoul, Korea in 1988.

There have been many other notable moments in Olympic sailing over the years. The following are a couple of moments that come from the NBC Olympics website. Los Angeles, 1932: At the helm of his vessel Angelita, Owen Churchill led his crew to victory in the 8-meter competition for America’s first-ever Olympic sailing medal. The Los Angeles native went on to patent the first rubber swim fin in 1940. These fins were later used in World War II by British and U.S. frogmen, and by recreational swimmers for decades to come. His boat was restored for the 1984 Los Angeles Games, with Churchill back at the flagship for the sailing events in Long Beach. Tokyo, 1964: Australia’s Bill Northam won the 5.5meter class on his yacht, the Barrenjoey. A grandfather of five, Northam was, at age 59, the oldest Australian Olympic gold medalist and his country’s first in the Please see FAST FACTS, PAGE 9

A Bittersweet Farewell The winds of change are blowing again and I am setting my sails on a new course. By: LINDSEY GLASGOW

HUNTINGTON BEACH.— A farewell and thank you is in order as this will be my final issue as a staff writer for the Log newspaper. No goodbyes are easy and this one, to you our readers, certainly isn’t. I came to the Log two years ago with a small amount of knowledge of boating and the nuanced development, legislative, and environmental issues impacting boaters but have strived to learn, grow, and dedicate myself to reporting these stories with the reverence they deserved. I did not take the weight of this responsibility to report fairly and accurately lightly and have strived to do so day in and day out. I wanted to give a heartfelt thank you to the community members I have met at my time at the Log, you have and always will be a vital part of this newspaper. I have tried in my time here to look deeper than commission agendas and listen and

seek your unique stories and tell them in an impactful way. And another thanks to the many waterfront department staff, harbor masters, harbor commissioners, city coun-

cilmembers and other local officials who have lived up to their duties and answered my calls and questions and not shied away from controversial topics. As I shift course, I will still be living

here in Southern California and hope we cross paths again out on the water. Don’t hesitate to stay in touch, you can reach me at lwelling6@gmail.com.

Beach Harbor. The birds have formed a colony on two barges in the harbor and chicks have been falling into the water and are in danger of drowning because the chicks have not grown their adult watertight feathers yet. Aquarium staff have been going out in boats daily to retrieve the chicks from the water where they are then transferred to the IBR clinic in San Pedro where they are then stabilized. As of July 16, more than 400 chicks had been rescued and brought to the clinic.

LOCAL SeaWorld San Diego and Hubbs-SeaWorld Research Institute Live Track Two Guadalupe Fur Seals SAN DIEGO— Two Guadalupe fur seals

were released back into the Pacific Ocean last month and for the next three to four months the seals will be tracked using transmitters, to collect data and provide information on the seal’s habits and location. According to a July 19 press release from SeaWorld, the Hubbs-SeaWorld Research Institute has tracked the animals south into waters off Northern Baja, one of the seals is midway between Ensenada and the outer continental shield and the other is moving towards the edge of the continental shelf just south of Ensenada. One of the seals was found on Camp Pendleton’s white beach on Jan. 30 and appeared to be emaciated, lethargic, and had bald spots across its body. After more testing they found two broken femurs, a broken rib, and a four-inchlong sting ray spine lodged in her nasal passage, according to the press release. Seals normally take three to four months to recover before they are released but they held her for over five months because of her injuries.

Aquarium of the Pacific Starts Up Saturday Wetland Restoration LONG BEACH— Starting on Aug. 7 the

LEGAL ADVICE

ask a maritime attorney

By David Weil

California’s Boating and Fishing News

I filed a lien against a yacht for unpaid wages, what next?

2C DARK BKGND

QUESTION:

I would like some legal advice for how to enforce a maritime lien. I am a former crew member of a large American yacht that failed to pay me when I left the boat over two months ago. I recorded a maritime lien against the vessel through an online service but my claim remains unpaid. What are the next steps for collecting my unpaid wages after recording the lien?

David Weil is the managing attorney at Weil & Associates (www.weilmaritime.com) in Seal Beach. He is certified as a Specialist in Admiralty and Maritime Law by the State Bar of California Board of Legal Specialization and a “Proctor in Admiralty” Member of the Maritime Law Association of the United States, an adjunct professor of Admiralty Law, and former legal counsel to the California Yacht Brokers Association. If you have a maritime law question for Weil, he can be contacted at 562-799-5508, through his website at www.weilmaritime.com, or via email at dweil@weilmaritime.com.

ANSWER: This question is a bit more complicated than our reader might expect. Consider the following. First, as we have discussed many times in this column, foreclosing on a maritime lien is extremely expensive, and the cost may easily exceed the amount of our reader’s claim against the vessel. The foreclosure process requires the filing of a lawsuit in U.S. District Court in the judicial district where the vessel is located, seeking a warrant for the “civil arrest” of the vessel by the US Marshals. The Marshals require a deposit of $5,000 to $20,000 depending on the type of boat and the rules of that particular district. After the arrest, the Marshals will transfer custody of the vessel to a comPlease see ATTORNEY, PAGE 11

LATEST NEWS UPDATES

blips on the radar By Jordan B. Darling

Queen Mary Comes Under Long Beach City’s Control WHAT HAPPENED: On May 14, the City of Long Beach filed an Objection to Sale of Leases with the court when the current lease-holder for the Queen Mary, Urban Commons Queensway LLC, a Long Beach-based travel company that has held the lease since 2016, filed for bankruptcy. Also, in May of this year, the city inspected the Queen Mary and determined that the cost for repairs would be between $41 and $58 million. On June 4 Urban Commons Queensway LLC surrendered its interest in the lease and the responsibility of the property back to the city. For the first time in 40 years, Long Beach was back in control of the Queen Mary. On June 8 the city approved a $2 million short-term caretaking agreement with Evolution Hospitality, the current on-ship operator, which costs about $300,000 a month to keep the ship running and provide basic maintenance. The city also approved $500,000 to Moffat and Nicol to develop engineering and design repair work; immediate repairs are expected to cost $5 million. The city is still looking to hold the previous leaseholder responsible for lease violations and the bankruptcy is expected to continue into August. The Queen Mary will continue to remain closed to the public until repairs are made. WHAT’S ON TAP:

about several options for preserving the Queen Mary or scraping. Moffat and Nicol, a Long Beachbased engineering consulting firm, laid out five options for moving forward. Preserving the Queen Mary where it is; deconstructing the ship at its current location; towing the ship to another location for deconstruction; complete a set of repairs and then tow the ship overseas to a recycling facility, or sink the ship to make an artificial reef. In almost every scenario the cost for the repairs topped over $100 million and each scenario was presented with its own challenges. Towing the ship to a new location would require that the ship has the structural integrity to be moved, restoring it would require the city to put in $5 million every year aside from the initial $25-$50 million. For now, the next steps for the city and the harbor are to work together to create an assessment of alternatives for a long-term solution, which John Keisler, director for economic development with the city, estimates to take up to 90 days before they can return to the council with projected costs. Ideally, short-term goals also include completing critical repairs to the ship so they can reopen for tourists in 2022, and a continued partnership with the harbor to negotiate agreements for hotel and special event operations on Pier H, which could include a transfer of Pier H to the port.

Historic Sailboat Journeys Again The Pequod, a 28-foot sailboat, was originally skippered by Hernán Álvarez Forn who became the first Argentinian to sail from Argentina to Antarctica in 1987.

BUE N O S A IRE S , A R G E N T IN A —It is a three-month and 4,000-mile journey by sailboat between Buenos Aries, Argentina, and Deception Island in the Antarctic. The journey covers miles of sea including, a journey across Drake’s Passage with 10 to 15-foot swells and strong northwestern winds. The Pequod, a 28-foot sailboat, made the journey for the first time in 1987 with skipper and well-known Argentinian skipper Hernán Álvarez Forn and made it again in 2021 with new skipper Manuel Pardi. Pardi and his crew of two left their homeport of Buenos Aires on the first day of 2021 and returned three months later after completing the harrowing journey to the volcanic island just off the Antarctic Peninsula. “When we arrived at Deception Island, it was an incredible moment it was a big euphoric time for me and for the Pequod because of the journey there was plenty of obstacles and things broken and it was very hard for us to get there,” said Manuel Pardi, skipper of the Pequod. “…When we arrived, it was like we did it… it was amazing and unforgettable for all of us.” The island is an active volcano in the South Shetland Islands shaped like a horse-shoe and covered in barren volcanic slopes, steaming beaches, and ash-layered glaciers. The island is open to the sea through a narrow channel at Neptune’s Bellows and forms a naturally sheltered harbor, according to the Deception Island Antarctic Specially Man-

aged Area website. Pardi’s journey didn’t begin the day he left on the Pequod, he was an avid sailor in his youth and loved to be out on the water in a boat, but life took a turn for the busier and his dream of sailing on a large adventure was put on hold. “I am almost 50-years-old and when I was young, I used to sail a lot in my youth,” said Pardi. “Then I became a lawyer and I have a family and my kids and I didn’t sail for a lot of time for more than 25 years since… and I always wanted to sail… a long trip.” Three years ago, Pardi began the journey of a lifetime simply by picking up a book. Forn wrote about his journey to the Antarctic in “Antarktikos” and Pardi was reading the book when he came across an ad for the Pequod, the boat in the book. “I got a sail ad on the internet and the Pequod, which was his boat was for sale,” said Pardi. “Completely rusted and with openings in the hull and things to restore and well that happened to me that I was reading a book and I go to the ad for the boat of the book and you know… well then I bought the Pequod and I decided to it was going to be my boat to do the adventure that I was reading about and that was my project.”

Pardi bought the boat, met Forn, and began repairing and restoring the boat to its original condition. During the repairs, Pardi made another unique decision that would set him apart from the original journey, he would make the trip with zero-carbon emissions. “I said I want to go to Antarctica with zero-carbon emissions… I will go to a place that it is unpolluted and pristine and I want to go electrical,” said Pardi. Pardi removed the old diesel engine which was leaking oil and equipped the boat with a Torqeedo all-electric auxiliary propulsion system, which could be recharged using wind and solar energy. Unfortunately, Hernán Álvarez Forn passed away in November of 2020 at the age of 94 just months before Pardi was set to make the journey. Forn’s family asked Pardi to let Forn make the journey to Antarctica one more time so Pardi could scatter his ashes. “The family asked me to take the ashes to Antarctica it was like honor or well something that I could accomplish and make and it was something remarkable to tell,” said Pardi.

Mexico Eases Enforcement in Vaquita Zero-Tolerance Area

Photo from Zero Tolerance Area and the Refuge Area for the Protection of the Vaquita Marina

Mexico has created a tierbased enforcement guide for the zero-tolerance area in the Upper Gulf of California, the habitat for the critically endangered vaquita. By: JORDAN B. DARLING

Mexico designated a zero-tolerance are in Sept. 2020, the zone is roughly 140 miles. getting caught and drowning in gillnets which are illegal in Mexico but entirely unenforced.” According to Smith, fishermen in Mexico use the gillnets to catch shrimp and totoaba, a large fish species only native to the Gulf of California and has been internationally illegal since its placement on the Endangered Species List in 1975, even though gillnet fishing has been banned in the vaquita habitat since 2017, and in the 2020 document, the use of gillnets was banned in and around the habitat. “Mexico has banned gillnet use in the vaquita habitat... in their regulations from Sept. 2020 in previous regulations they banned the use in certain fisheries,” said Smith “...They also banned the possession of gillnets in and around vaqui-

Paula Olson/National Marine Fisheries Service

L A PA Z, ME XICO — On July 9 Mexico released a document detailing a tierba sed enforcement system for the zero-tolerance area in the Upper Gulf of California, the only known habitat of the critically endangered porpoise, the vaquita. The recent announcement details Mexico’s plan for enforcing the Zero Tolerance Area and the Refuge Area for the Protection of the Vaquita Marina plan that was released on Sept. 24, 2020, which created a zero-tolerance of fishing within the vaquita habitat. The initial agreement created an almost 140-mile zero-tolerance area to protect the vaquita, this banned the use of gillnets in the area and any type of fishing vessel. When the initial agreement was released, Mexico promised to release a set of enforcement procedures and triggers for that enforcement at a later date. The vaquita is one of seven porpoise species on the planet and is considered one of the rarest marine mammal species in the world with the last species count at just 10 porpoises, which is a drastic decline from the over 500 individuals in the 1990s. The vaquita is facing a distinct threat from the use of gillnets in their only known habitat the Upper Gulf of California. “There is no evidence that vaquita are being preyed upon by other species,” said Zak Smith, director of international wildlife conservation with the Natural Resource Defense Council. “There is no other evidence that they have lack of food or that there is any other explanation for their dramatic decline other than

The vaquita is the smallest species of porpoise in the world and is only found in the Upper Gulf of California ta habitat because of the threat that gillnets pose.” Mexico’s current enforcement system is broken up into tiers based on the number of boats and gillnets that are observed in the zero-tolerance area. The enforcement rules allow up to 20 boats in the area and up to 100 meters

of gillnets before beginning any enforcement, at the minimum 20 boats in the area leads to surveillance and the availability of 60 percent of resources that are earmarked for the gulf and 100 meters of gillnets leads to search and recovery efforts but not enforcement. Please see MEXICO, PAGE 11

mercial custodian, and it will remain in their custody during the pendency of the lawsuit unless released upon the filing of a bond or other security by the owner. Commercial custodians submit a monthly bill to the plaintiff for their services, and they will require a significant deposit before the lawsuit is filed. And then of course there are the attorney’s fees. The attorney will spend a lot of time on the case, even if the claim is not disputed, and that translates to significant legal fees. If the claim is disputed, all costs will increase dramatically. The vessel may eventually be sold at auction, and the sale proceeds may be applied to the out-of-pocket expenses for the marshal and the custodian, but attorney fees may not be recoverable. Our reader indicated that he recorded a lien through an online service, but this will have little or no effect on the process. First, the Coast Guard’s National Vessel Documentation Center (“NVDC”) requires all claims that are accepted for recording to include the claimant’s notarized signature. I am not personally aware of an online service that assists with the recording of these claims, but the requirement of a notarized signature will complicate any online procedure. Second, a maritime lien, fundamentally, is a device to secure payment for services provided to the vessel. But the existence of a maritime lien, and the recording of a maritime lien with the Coast Guard, does nothing to actually procure payment. Maritime liens do not need to be recorded anywhere, and their recording has no legal effect. If the services associated with the claim give rise to a valid maritime lien, the lien is valid without recording, and the civil arrest procedure discussed above may proceed as described, without recording anything. The only reason to record a lien is to provide notice to the vessel owner, other creditors, and prospective buyers if the vessel is for sale, advising that a claimant is asserting a lien against the vessel. This is very effective if a sale of the vessel is pending, since the new owner does not want to be burdened with the claim. But as noted above it otherwise serves no purpose. In light of the foregoing, because of the expense of a foreclosure and the minimal legal-effect of recording a lien, our reader may want to consider other options. The lack of a practical and inexpensive maritime remedy does not mean that he has no legal recourse, he may consider filing a lawsuit against the owners in state court for breach of contract. The maritime nature of the contract allows him to pursue the vessel in Federal Court, but this does not preclude him from filing suit in state court. The only real differences are that the claimant cannot seize the vessel when the lawsuit is initially filed in state court, and a state court judge cannot order the sale of a vessel to be free of all possible claims from anywhere in the world. But the claimant may nonetheless sue the owner in state court, and if he prevails,

he may enforce his judgment against the defendant’s assets, which may eventually include the vessel.

From page 10

The strongest enforcement is if 60 to 65 boats are observed in the area three times a month Mexico will close the area and prohibit any type of fishing, the first time this occurs there will be a closure of up to 3-nautical miles for seven days, the second occurrence in 30 days will result in closure for 30 days, and so on and so forth. If more than 500 meters of gillnets are recovered in the area Mexico will follow the same pattern of closures. “For an area where there are supposed to be no boats to start with that, they will start increasing enforcement when the illegal activity reaches a certain threshold,” said Smith. “And if that

threshold increases it like basically its 20 boats, then it’s 50 boats you know they will increase their enforcement when the problem, of course, is any gillnet in the vaquita habitat threatens the survival of the species that is the conclusion of scientists.” In March 2020, the U.S. National Marine Fisheries Service announced that there was going to be a ban on imports of Mexican shrimp and other seafood caught in the vaquita habitat with the hope that the ban would place pressure on the Mexican government to stop the use of gillnets in that area.

the University of California, San Diego revealed the Scripps Institution of Oceanography had been granted $35 million from the State of California to build a hydrogen-hybrid coastal research vessel. According to Bruce Applegate, the associate director for the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, the new vessel will be a replacement for the 40-year-old Robert Gordon Sproul. “This is intended to replace our little workhorse vessel named Robert Gordon Sproul, which is a 125-foot converted oil field supply vessel,” said Applegate. “And so, the primary mission that ship serves it’s really our little workhorse for taking students to sea here at Scripps Institution of Oceanography but also throughout California.” The institution takes upwards of 400 students to sea throughout the year as part of supplementary education for lab work, but the vessel is also a part of a wider network that is open to scientists throughout California. “Folks who are supported by the National Science Foundation, the National Oceanography Atmospheric Administration, and U.S. Geological Survey all have access to ships like Sproul,” said Applegate. “And eventually the new ship, which

is operated within the U.S. Academic Research Fleet so it’s not just as at Scripps. We are a part of a much larger fleet of vessels that are organized through UNOLS which is the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System.” The new ship is also a part of the institution’s zero-carbon emissions goal and will have the ability to operate 75 percent of missions without generating carbon emissions. In 2017 the institution began feasibility studies in partnership with Sandia National Labs, a federal research lab, to explore hydrogen energy systems as an option for maritime energy. The goal was to explore reducing CO2 emissions as well as other pollutants and potentially create systems that were carbon neutral or even carbon-free on a large scale. “We did a couple of feasibility studies just to see,” said Applegate. “...Our first study was could you build a truly carbon-free zero-emission vessel using something other than fossil fuels using technology that existed at the time. We started that project in 2017 and the answer was yes sure you could and we looked at not just the technical aspects of the propulsion but everything from safety, could you bunker the thing, how do you get fuel, can it be, what was the regulatory framework look like, all of that.” The team took a couple of trips around the design cycle before coming up with a plan for a hybrid system that would utilize a hydrogen fuel cell system using polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEM). The fuel cells use hydrogen mixed with oxygen and air to produce electricity and pure water and according to the Department of Energy website, the fuel cells produce almost zero-carbon emissions. The conceptual plans for the vessel

have a smaller hull which means that the vessel would not be capable of carrying as much hydrogen as is needed to meet the 2,500-mile range used on trips, the addition of a second fuel system, a diesel, and electric system, would allow the vessel to reach the mission goal. The vessel is in the conceptual stage and the institution has set a threeyear schedule to have the vessel up and running. “We got a pretty aggressive schedule here,” said Applegate. “We’re saying we are going to do it in three the money gets here in October so you know we’ve got a conceptual design and we have conceptual renderings and drawings but really we need to spend the first year or so going through this and coming up with detailed designs so that’s the first step.” Currently, the institution is putting together a set of teams for leadership and construction before engaging with naval architects. “We will start working on the details of the design,” said Applegate. “We also have to work closely with the folks that are going to be using this vessel which are scientists and educators mostly at UC San Diego but also throughout the University of California.” Applegate thinks this project could be a step forward in creating a zero-carbon emission future for maritime. “I think there is a lot potential for this kind of power system to scale upward and be something that can be used on much longer duration and endurance vessels much bigger vessels as well,” said Applegate. “And really that’s key for decarbonizing maritime is moving away from fossil fuels to something like hydrogen that when produced at scale can be done sustainably with no carbon impact whatsoever.”

California 30x30 Biodiversity Panel The California Natural Resources Agency will be presenting its Pathways to 30x30 document in Feb. 2022. By: JORDAN B. DARLING

CALIFORNIA— On July 27 the California Natural Resources Agency hosted the third panel in a series of five community panels planned to go throughout the summer, addressing various topics on California’s path to 30x30 and defense against climate change. This particular panel Advancing 30x30 and Protecting Biodiversity focused on the best way to protect biodiversity in California through conservation. “The purpose of these topical advisory panels is to address key topics and questions to support the development of the Pathways to 30x30 document and the CA nature geographic information system,” said Mark Gold, secretary for biodiversity and habitat from the California Natural Resources Agency, in the discussion. In October 2020 Governor Gavin Newson signed executive agreement N-82-20, which committed the state of California to conserve 30 percent of the state’s coastal waters and lands by 2030, this enlisted California’s network of natural and working lands into fighting against climate change. In response to this the California Natural Resources Agency is creating a document, Pathways to 30x30, detailing opportunities and strategies to achieve 30x30 and is in the process of developing the CA Nature Geographic Information System. CA Nature GIS will be a publicly accessible system that will inform the 30x30 Pathways document and will provide insight on where biodiversity is richest and most threatened; how climate change will impact ecosystems; where landscapes can accelerate natural carbon removal and protect climate-vulnerable communities; where lands provide public access for recreation and where such access is restricted. The panel recommended six pathways for conservation that covered the use of metrics to capture biodiversity and prioritize lands and coastal waters that

need protection; target conservation approaches towards specific at-risk species and significant ecosystems in California; prioritizing the protection and restoration of landscape connectivity, things like corridors that would connect pieces of habitat disturbed by development; leveraging data to understand native species and the effect of climate change; implementing conservation methods on working landscapes and in urban areas not just in protected lands parks; partnerships with California Native American tribes to ensure effective and longterm management strategies. The white paper released by the panel stressed that designating lands coastal waters for protection is just the beginning in the push for conservation and changing climate. According to California Natural Resources Agency, the purpose of these panels is more than just reading off the white paper, but it is to engage the community to create a document and a pathway to 30x30 that is sustainable and well researched. They encourage public comment, which can be done by preregistering for the public speaking portion of the panels on the website or sending comments in through email, post, or leaving a voicemail. “We are looking for specific ideas on the types of programs that should be included and expanded upon and referrals to any organization doing relevant work propel us closer to the goals for 30 by 30. We want to hear from as many participants as possible… If you have additional input, you can send an email to californianature@resources.ca.gov, you can send in regular mail or you can leave a voice message at 1(800) 417-0668.” This is the third of the five panels, there will be two more held this summer on August 10, Conservation of Lands which will go over the definitions and the parameters of land conservation for 30x30. August 17, the agency will host the Conservation of Coastal Waters panel which will also provide definitions and parameters for conserving California’s water.

Kiteboarding was added to the Olympics for the 2024 Olympics set to be hosted in Paris.

Kite Foil League Takes Off in Southern California The league was created by a group of friends who were interested in upping the kite foil racing scene in California, their interest is in lieu of the induction of the sport into the 2024 Paris Olympics. By: JORDAN B. DARLING CALIFORNIA— Standing on the beach in Long Beach on July 17, passersby would have noticed a group of colorful kites dotting the sky just offshore. Twenty-six kiters were out on the water duking it out in 13 two-lap races for the lowest set of points in the Sea Breeze Invitational, the second race in the California Triple Crown Series hosted by the Kite Foil League. The league, based in Southern California, was created by a group of friends who were inspired to up the racing experience here in the United States after the International Olympic Committee

announced that Kite Foil Racing would join the sailing events in the 2024 Paris Olympics. “We were all kind of hanging out one afternoon and you know we were talking about how we could get to the place where you could go and win a gold medal for the U.S.,” said Willie McBride chief executive officer for the Kite Foil League. “One of the big things that came up was you know there is not enough racing here in the United States... We want to create super high-level racing as they have in Europe here in the United States and hopefully be able to bring national and regional and international events here to the United States.” Kite foiling also referred to as hydrofoil kiteboarding, foil boarding, and foil kitesurfing is a sport where racers use a kite and a hydrofoil allowing the racer to kite along the surface of the water. Kite foiling got its evolution from kiteboarding, people realized that they could drag themselves behind a kite on different types of boards, like wakeboards or surfboards. Once the racing started and people tried to go upwind, they began to add longer fins to the boards to make them

go faster, and eventually it was discovered that by adding a hydrofoil they could maximize their speed. “So, at this point, the technology has evolved to the point where these guys are going three times the speed of the wind,” said McBride. “So, in 10 knots of wind, these guys will do 30 to 35 knots downwind and 25 knots upwind.” McBride compared the sport to Olympic snowboarding, with the amount of speed that racers gain paired with the chop of the water and ability to navigate the course. “I think really at the end of the day it is more akin to snowboard racing in the Olympics,” said McBride. “Or something like that downhill skiing where these guys are going so fast it’s really all about managing the sea state and the chop and the wind and you know it’s kind of like a mogul course on a ski mountain where every little piece of chop out there on the water is impacting how they navigate the course.” McBride said that between an influx of 32 racers for the previous two events and almost 20 volunteers that have come down, the league is gain and hopefully will continue to gain momentum mov-

ing forward. McBride said part of it is the sense of community that the league has to offer and the excitement of creating a better racing community here in California. “In kiting the more people, you have out there the more people who are pumped to get out on the water the better it is the more people you can get out there the better the racing is the more competitive it is and I think because of that there is this sense of community,” said McBride. Because of sponsors and volunteers willing to come down and spend the time, the league has been able to offer free entry, and it is open to anyone with a kite and board. Or if you are just looking to volunteer, there are opportunities to be involved in the production of the event. “People can get involved in a lot of different ways the number one way that we encourage people to get involved is we want kiters to get out on the water and come race,” said McBride. The next race is the Ledbetter Classic Aug. 20 - 22 in Santa Barbara, for more information see https://www.kitefoilleague.com/.

Newport Ocean Sailing Association Inducts New Commodore Mary Bacon will be the second woman to fill the role of Commodore for the Newport Ocean Sailing Association. By: JORDAN B. DARLING

NE WPORT BE ACH — At their annual

meeting on July 18, the Newport Ocean Sailing Association instilled the 2022 board of directors, which included the installation of the second woman to ever hold the Commodore title, Mary Bacon. Bacon has been a valued member of the sailing committee for over 30 years and served as the second female commodore of the Bahia Corinthian Yacht Club in 1999 where she helped the club navi-

gate the purchase of its land and marina. She received the club’s Woman of the Year award in 1992, 2012, and 2013. In 2013 she was awarded the Peggy Slater Memorial Award from the Southern California Yachting Association where she served on the board in 2003 and as commodore in 2006. In a July 20 press release, Bacon said she hopes to capitalize on the momentum created by the 2021 Newport to Ensenada Race, to increase participation, and improve the competition experience. “We have had a great number of challenges in the past year, but we need to celebrate that we’re on the other side of the pandemic,” Bacon said in the press release. “The challenge now is to maintain enthusiasm into the celebratory 75th year and race. Sailors need to sign up and get raring to go; to bring friends; challenge other racers to get others out on the water; challenge organizers to stay busy, and challenge our yacht clubs to get fleets ready for 2022.” Bacon’s first act as commodore was to officially announce that the 74th Newport to Ensenada Race will be held on April 22, 2022.

CDFW Relocates Hatchery Salmon Because of Poor Drought Conditions in the Klamath River This is the first time since 1962 that the California Department of Fish and Wildlife has not released salmon into the Klamath River.

N O R T H E R N C A L I F O R N I A . — T he California Department of Fish and Wildlife successfully moved approximately one million juvenile fall-run chinook salmon from the Iron Gate Fish Hatchery to neighboring facilities due to increasing drought conditions. The fish which are normally released into the Klamath river between May and June are being held because of warm water temperatures, low water flow, and an exceedingly high probability of the salmon catching a disease in the river. “It’s extremely challenging to raise cold water fish species in a drought,” said Dr. Mark Clifford, Hatchery Environmental Scientist for CDFW’s Northern Region in a July 13 press release from the CDFW. “The reality is most of these fish would have died if we released them into the river. We need to maintain the integrity of the fall run on the Klamath River and we especially can’t afford to lose this generation of fish.”

The fish will be returned to the Klamath river to allow them to imprint on the river with the hopes they return to spawn later. The juvenile salmon, all roughly 7 months old, were trucked to a nearby satellite facility and to the Trinity River Hatchery, which is over 122 miles away; there is another 1 million salmon that will remain at the Iron Gate Hatchery which sits on the mouth of Bogus Creek right along the Klamath. There are four dams slated for remov-

al along the Klamath by 2024, which is the largest dam removal in history according to the CDFW, the removal is expected to restore fish access to the Klamath could have a positive impact on the salmon who will return to this river to spawn, and the river’s conditions. The CDFW is planning to hold the fish throughout the summer until river

conditions improve, the fish will then be moved back to the Iron Gate Fish Hatchery to allow time for the fish to imprint on the Klamath river. All of the relocated fish have been given coded wire tags that will allow the CDFW and other agencies to identify them later.

CDFW Offers Drought Guidelines for Recreational Anglers

By: JORDAN B. DARLING CALIFORNIA— In light of extreme drought conditions throughout California, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife has released a set of voluntary guidelines called “Hoot Owl” Restrictions, to mitigate negative impacts from recreational fishing during the drought. The CDFW is recommending that anglers finish fishing before 12 p.m. in certain inland waters to mitigate the effect on fish that are caught in catch and release style angling. For species of cold-water fish like

FEATURED CATCH Two Fish One Hook NEWPORT BEACH— This tiny look-alike from the 1979 movie Alien was found in the mouth of a sculpin on a trip out of Davey’s Locker Sportfishing and Whale Watching in Newport on July 12. “We think it might be a juvenile of the species caught a few months back on the @freelancesportfishing boat called a Red Brotula, ‘’ said a July 12 Facebook post from Davey’s Locker Sportfishing and Whale Watching. “Anyone else have any thoughts on this weird fish? .”

1. Minimize the time you spend “fighting” the fish and any hands-on handling. 2. Use rubber or coated nylon nets to protect a fish’s slime layer and fins. 3. Quickly remove the hook with forceps or needle-nosed pliers. 4. Minimize the amount of time the fish is exposed to air, especially when the weather is warm. 5. Keep your hands wet when handling the fish. 6. If the fish is deeply hooked, do not pull on the line. Instead, cut the line as close as possible to where it is hooked and leave the hook. 7. Allow the fish to recover in the net before you release it. 8. If the fish does not stay upright when you release it, gently move it back and forth. 9. Avoid fighting fish from deeper, cooler waters and bringing them into warmer waters at the surface. 10. Target fisheries that have stable water levels or species that are more resilient to elevated temperatures.

BLUEFIN, YELLOWFIN, YELLOWTAIL, DOROADO AND STRIPED MARLIN BITING IN LOCAL OFFSHORE WATERS! By Bob Vanian of 976Bite.com Southern California anglers have a lot to choose from in targeting species on the offshore fishing grounds and deciding what species you want to target will likely dictate where you choose to go fishing. If you choose to target bluefin tuna, your likely destination will be at an offshore bank in U.S. waters between the 9 Mile Bank and the Catalina area. Offshore banks in this sector are mostly holding big numbers of bluefin tuna and that might also produce a yellowtail, dorado or yellowfin tuna.



Your other choice for a day of offshore fishing is to head into Mexican waters and fish offshore banks between the Ensenada and Punta Colnett region. If you head down this way, you are heading into a prime kelp paddie yellowtail fishing zone that might also produce a few dorado, yellowfin tuna or bluefin tuna. Last week you could get into the good yellowtail fishing at some of the local offshore banks outside of Los Coronado Islands but at the time of this writing, boats are having to travel further down the line to fish the waters outside of Ensenada and below to get into the good yellowtail fishing.



The yellowtail under the kelp paddies have included fish to 30 pounds with most of the yellowtail falling within the 14 to 20 pound range. A recent catch that included large yellowtail was posted by Condor out of Fisherman’s Landing that had 37 anglers on a 1.5 day trip catch 1 dorado and 185 yellowtail that went to 30 pounds. Productive yellowtail areas have been in the zone ranging from 5 to 10 miles southwest of the Banda Bank on down to where you are fishing to the southwest of the Peanut Bank. This has you fishing from 60 to 90 miles 155 to 160 degrees from Point Loma.



Bluefin tuna have been ranging in size from 15 to 270-plus pounds with most falling within the 30 to 140 pound range. Much of the bluefin action originates from stopping alongside of spots of breaking fish and trying to cast poppers, Colt Snipers or surface iron to the breaking fish before they sound. There has also been some action that originates from stopping on sonar marks or meter marks. When fishing fish found with the electronics there have been some bluefin biting on sardines and mackerel while slow trolling, flylining or fishing with rubber band rigged sinker rigs. There have also been bluefin biting while drifting over marks and using kite fished frozen flying fish, kite fished live sardines, kite fished live mackerel, knife jigs or Flat Fall jigs. There are occasional bluefin caught on the troll while using kite trolled Yummy Flyers, trolled cedar plugs and trolled spreader bar rigs. There are some bluefin biting during

non-daylight hours and Flat Fall jigs and knife jigs have been working best when dropped down to marks found in the dark.



Generally listed from north to south, areas where good numbers of bluefin are currently being found are the region of the 14 Mile Bank, the end of the Steamer Lane below the 14 Mile Bank, the 277 Spot, the area 3 to 5 miles off Dana Point, the 267 Spot, the 289 Spot, the 209 Spot, the 312 Spot, the 181 Spot, the 138 Spot, the 182 Spot, the area 12 to 20 miles west to southwest of La Jolla, the 178 Spot and the upper end of the 9 Mile Bank.

Did You Ever See a Fish Fly? — “Kamakazi flying fish at Whites Landing on Catalina Island can be found in the cockpit any morning,” said Captain Dan Payne in a June 30 email. “They have been clocked at 35 m.p.h. If their solid cartilage forehead meets yours, an ambulance ride is in your future. Tastes like cod (cod liver oil).”

Deadline: Aug 13, 2021 Prints or high-res digital photos are preferred.



As talked about in the paragraph above, the bluefin are widespread and you never know when and where you might encounter an area of bluefin. A prime example was a recent day of fishing that saw the bluefin appear out of nowhere in the Carlsbad and Oceanside area. Captain Joe Cacciola of the Sea Star with Sea Star Sportfishing and the Oceanside Sea Center reported that Oceanside Sea Center boats unexpectedly had a day of fishing where they got into good bluefin action on local half and three-quarter day trips. Cacciola said that the area of fish was holding about 3 miles off the coast and was first found in the morning in the area above the Carlsbad Power Plant. Cacciola said that the fish moved steadily up the coast during the day to where boats were fishing them off Box Canyon at the end of the day.



Oceanside Sea Center boats took advantage of the sudden appearance of bluefin and they had Chubasco II out on a morning half day trip with 20 anglers catch 10 bluefin tuna. Pronto was also out on a morning half day trip with 7 anglers who caught 3 bluefin tuna. Southern Cal was out on a three-quarter day trip and had a catch of 2 bluefin tuna and 25 rockfish. The bluefin were reported to be good sized fish that included fish that were up over 60 pounds.



There has been a bit of striped marlin activity in both the Catalina and San Diego regions. The past Saturday saw 3 marlin bites being reported up by Catalina in the area of the 14 Mile Bank, the area off Avalon and in the region of the 152 Spot. Private boater Captain Louie Zimm of the Shearwater reported doing some kelp paddie hopping for yellowtail on a recent trip to the 425 Bank below Los Coronado Islands. Zimm said that while fishing a kelp paddie that he unexpectedly hooked a striped marlin on a sardine that was being fished with 40 pound test and no leader. Zimm got the marlin alongside of the boat and was reaching for his gloves to be able to Please see FISH REPORT, PAGE 22

grab the bill and release the fish when the line wore through where it had been rubbing against the marlin’s bill. That was an easy release!



The surface fishing at Los Coronado Islands has been good for a mix of calico bass, barracuda, bonito and yellowtail along with a chance at a bluefin tuna. The best areas for the mixed bag surface fishing have been the Middle Grounds, the north end of South Island, the Ribbon Kelp and the South Kelp. Yellowtail have been located by finding sonar marks, meter marks, spots of fish up on the surface, trolling strikes on deep diving Rapalas and trolling strikes on slow trolled sardines. Good choices for surface iron that work well for yellowtail and barracuda include Salas 7X lights and Tady 45’s in blue and white, mint and sardine colors.



Private boater John Carroll of Huachinango reported about his friend Mark Scott taking Huachinango to Los Coronado Islands and finding very good mixed bag fishing for yellowtail, bonito, barracuda and calico bass. Carroll reported that Scott first started getting action on slow trolled sardines while fishing the Ribbon Kelp area in the lee of South Island. The Ribbon Kelp produced 2 yellowtail and Carroll said that Scott ended up finding his best fishing further up the inside of South Island while slow

THELOG.COM

trolling sardines in the area between the Cove and the north end of South Island. Carroll said that Scott caught yellowtail, bonito, barracuda and calico bass in that zone and that it was non stop action.



Carroll said that Scott ended up with 4 yellowtail and lost another 3 or 4 yellowtail hookups. The water conditions were nice and the water was at 69 degrees. The fish were readily biting the slow trolled sardines that were being fished on 25 pound test line.



The fishing along the San Diego County coast has been steady for a mixed bag of calico bass, sand bass, barracuda, bonito, reds, rockfish, whitefish, sculpin and sheephead along with a chance at a yellowtail or halibut.



Calico bass have been providing the best surface fishing along the San Diego County coast and productive kelp bed and hard bottom areas for calico bass have been the hard bottom to the northwest of Buoy #3 at Point Loma, the Dropoff at Point Loma, the 5 Tanks at Point Loma, the Green Tank at Point Loma, Point Loma College, the upper end of La Jolla, Del Mar, Solana Beach, Leucadia, South Carlsbad and the Barn.



Sand bass fishing in the Imperial Beach area continues to be inconsistent but has shown overall improvement in recent days. The best sand bass fishing has been coming from meter marks found over hard bottom areas with sand bass also biting at the Imperial Beach

Pipeline and from an occasional meter mark found over sandy bottom.



The yellowtail fishing along the San Diego area coast continues to be difficult with the upper end of La Jolla providing the best chance at a coastal yellowtail. The yellowtail activity at La Jolla has shown some improvement in recent days so anglers have reason to be optimistic that better yellowtail fishing could soon be coming to coastal waters. The barracuda and bonito fishing along the coast has been hit or miss but there have been occasional flurries of barracuda and bonito at the upper end of La Jolla. One of the better recent fish counts from La Jolla was aboard New Seaforth out of Seaforth Sportfishing that had 38 anglers on a half day trip catch 15 bonito, 62 calico bass, 3 rockfish and 3 yellowtail.



Productive hard bottom and structure areas for the reds, rockfish, whitefish and lingcod are the Imperial Beach Pipeline, the International Reef, the Whistler Buoy and the Dropoff outside of Point Loma, the Green Tank at Point Loma, “The 270” out to the west of Mission Bay, the upper end of La Jolla, the ridge outside of Del Mar and at hard bottom areas off South Carlsbad, Leucadia and Box Canyon.
