BIZARRE
Zipper-shaped ship brings unzipping wake in Tokyo’s Sumida River By LINDSEY GLASGOW TOK YO, JAPAN — A ship shaped as a zipper
on the surface of the water. “Suzuki says that it was not until this situation that he noticed the ‘now’ that appeared on the surface of the river,” reads the page for the event of the zip-fastener ship journey. “If you look at the gently flowing Sumida river, you can see the swaying water that changes its shape due to the splash of waves that the ship has set up on the sparkling water surface that reflects the sky. As the fastener ship sails, we will bring out and convey the various expressions of water that lurks around us.” Interesting Engineering reported there are plans for the ship to travel between Takamatsu and Megijima in Japan and also carry passengers. The online publication reported that in August the boat underwent sea trials to evaluate the risk of rollover. The ship will need approval from authorities before passengers can be loaded onto the unconventional vessel.
The “Zip-Fastener Ship”, created by Japanese artist Yasuhiro Suzuki, cruises Tokyo’s Sumida River as part of a recent outdoor installation.
Opening the River exhibit photo
with a wake resembling a zipper being undone, wowed onlookers of Tokyo’s Sumida River Oct. 31 through Nov.8. The “Zip-Fastener Ship” cruised the river as part of an outdoor installation called DESIGNART Tokyo 2020. The 29-foot ship is made up of a chrome-colored body, bridge, and puller—just like a regular zipper. According to a website for the exhibit, titled “Opening the River,” a bird’s eye view of a ship’s wake splitting the water’s surface into two like a zipper is what inspired Japanese artist Yasuhiro Suzuki to design and create the zip-fastener ship. “When the artist Yasuhiro Suzuki looked down at Tokyo Bay from the window of an airplane, the ship and the wake going through the sea seemed to open the sea (earth) with a zipper,” a statement on the exhibit website, sumiyume.jp/event/zipfastenership2020/, stated. The statement on the exhibit’s website went on to say due to the recent corona storm, the Sumida River has been visited by unprecedented silence

FAST FACTS
Rum running along the Orange County coast in the 1920s By LINDSEY GLASGOW NEWPORT BEACH—Orange County’s oceanfront
today is dotted with mostly pleasure craft, fishing vessels and cargo ships but from the 1920s through early 1930s, another type of vessel was common in the waters. According to the Orange County Sheriff’s Museum, during Prohibition, the county’s zig-zagged 42-mile coastline became a convenient rendezvous for “rumrunners” who off-loaded English and Canadian liquor in the county’s numerous hidden coves, sometimes for national distribution. The ban of liquor sale and distribution in the United States first was proposed as the 18th Amendment to the Constitution by the U.S. Congress on Dec. 18, 1917 and took effect Jan. 17, 1920. As booze supplies began to run out, the demand for liquor increased, and the age of bootlegging and rum-running began. Tony Cornero, known as Tony the Hat, was one of Southern California’s most famous rumrunners. Cornero would later turn up as the owner of The Rex, the notorious gambling ship that operated off the South Bay coast during the 1930s. The mobster used a shrimp boat as his cover to smuggle massive
shipments of whiskey and rum into Southern California. His shrimp boat would reportedly idle three miles offshore while small skiffs, painted black, delivered case upon case of contraband to Laguna’s secret coves. One of the popular drop off points for the contraband was Crescent Bay, which was isolated from view from the rest of the coast making it an ideal spot to truck in the booze. In the South Bay, the Palos Verdes Peninsula became a favorite landing spot for rum running ships. Once on shore, the contraband was trucked to locations throughout the county. One of Laguna Beach’s oldest standing structures, the Murphy Smith Bungalow, where the Laguna Beach Historical Society is currently based, was a favorite stash spot for rumrunners. According to the Daily Breeze, a brief gun battle erupted at the old Anaheim Landing in Seal Beach on July 1, 1923 when the Coast Guard and federal agents seized a fishing boat carrying liquor. Crew members attempted to throw some of the estimated 100 cases overboard, but it was quickly recovered. Bootlegging and rumrunning came to an end alongside the end of Prohibition, which officially ended Dec. 5, 1933 with the ratification of the 21st amendment.
WORLD NEWS
news briefs WORLD/NATION Poll finds consumers believe current E15 label is ineffective in protecting consumers WASHINGTON—The results of a new national poll initiated by a group of organizations representing manufacturers, retailers, and consumers of nonroad engine equipment and products reveals the vast majority of consumers find current E15 labeling at gas pumps to be ineffective in communicating the dangers of this type of fuel for usage in small engines like those in boats, off road vehicles, motorcycles, and lawn mowers. Led by the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA), the American Motorcyclist Association (AMA), and the Outdoor Power Equipment Institute (OPEI), the survey, conducted by Survey Monkey during the week of Nov. 2, polled a nationally representative pool of 515 users aged 20 to 65 on their awareness of E15, a type of
gasoline blended with 10.5-15% ethanol. Key findings included a mere 18.25% of consumers think the current E15 label used at gas pumps across the country is very effective in showing that E15 is hazardous to certain types of engines and consumers were more than four times as likely to prefer a prototype design with direct language and visual representations of the fuel’s risk, saying the improved label elements of the prototype more clearly serve as a warning than the current label. As the EPA looks toward new labeling regulations, industry and consumer organization partners have called on the Federal government to factor in these considerations and solicit expert advice and consumer label research to better protect and inform consumers. NMMA and its partners developed a prototype Please see NEWS BRIEFS, PAGE 6

I recently made an offer to purchase a boat through a yacht broker and the offer was accepted. Unfortunately, I lost my job due to the pandemic and I simply cannot afford to buy the boat now. The offer was made contingent upon sea trial and survey, but there was no contingency in the contract regarding my financial ability to buy the boat. Is my deposit at risk if I withdraw the offer?

language of your purchase agreement. The language of a yacht purchase agreement may vary quite a bit depending on the preferences of individual yacht brokers, but in California, the most common purchase agreement is the document published by the California Yacht Brokers Association. The philosophy used by the CYBA in drafting their standard purchase agreement was that they did not want to force anyone to buy a boat. Under the CYBA purchase agreement, the vessel is “deemed rejected” unless the buyer signs a final acceptance prior to a certain date. And, when a vessel is rejected, the contract requires the return of the buyer’s deposit, net of any unpaid costs relating to the transaction (such as the cost of a haulout and survey). In the scenario described by our reader, he would simply decline to execute the final acceptance and he would be entitled to a return of his deposit.

ELECTRIC FOIL SURFBOARDS CAUSING WAVES IN OCEANSIDE HARBOR, SHOULD THEY BE CONSIDERED VESSELS?
Oceanside Harbor Police have been dealing with an uptick in reports of electric foil surfboards in the harbor, prompting questions about whether the devices are considered vessels by regulatory agencies. The California Department of Motor Vehicles says yes. By LINDSEY GLASGOW OCEANSIDE— Harbors and mari-
nas throughout the country have seen an increase in the amount of human powered watercraft on their waterways with much of the activity centered on the booming paddleboard explosion. Now motors have been popping up on paddleboards, kayaks and even surf boards and the new trend has been causing a stir in Oceanside Harbor. Oceanside Harbor Manager Ted Schiafone said in an email electric foil surfboards have become a popular attraction in the area and have caused some waves in maritime law enforcement. These watercraft have a lithium-ion battery as a power source and/or a hydrofoil that extends below the board into the water. “These new electric foil surfboards are difficult to carry so it’s much easier to launch one at a public dock and simply ride it out into the ocean and surf line,” Schiafone said in an email. “As more of these new watercraft hit the Harbor, our slip renters began calling about enforcement.” Schiafone went on to say it’s easy to spot a trolling motor mounted on a kayak, but the new technology has made it more difficult to identify an electric motor built into a paddle-
board, kayak or surfboard. “This new technology allows a surf board to rise up on the foil at about 5mph and travel as fast as 30mph,” Schiafone said. “Once the surfboard leaves the friction of the water, there is no wake so spotting its movement is more difficult, especially at daybreak or twilight.” Surf boards of any kind, including foil and electric, have been banned in Oceanside Harbor for safety reasons. Boat operators have trouble seeing them due to obstructions in and around the water and poor visibility of the small fraction of the person that is above the water’s surface. While the issue has been resolved in the Oceanside Municipal code, Oceanside Harbor Police had issue with enforcement, because surf boards are technically not a “vessel” and they didn’t produce a wake. Schiafone reached out to the U.S. Coast Guard, hoping to gain some more clarity on the issue as to whether they would be considered vessels. Under USCG regulations, any craft determined to be a vessel requires safety equipment, including a personal flotation device, and registration. Gold dredges, paddleboards, argo-amphibious ATVs, kiteboards and float tubes have all been determined to be vessels, but electric foil surf boards are not currently named as a vessel.
“The U.S. Coast Guard doesn’t regulate this type of vessel unless it’s in commercial service or for hire, aka paying passengers/consideration involved,” USCG San Diego Sector External Affairs Officer Lieutenant Liesl Olson told The Log in an email. He went on to say the State of California Department of Motor Vehicles does all boat/vessel registrations and would be in charge of any local requirements for safety and registration. The DMV requires any boat/vessel with a motor no matter the size, to be registered with DMV in order to legally operate it on California waterways. “This would apply to surfboards, kayaks and stand-up paddleboards that have a motor attached,” Nicholas Filipas, a Public Information Officer with the California DMV, said in an email. More information about registering a vessel with the DMV can be found at https://bit. ly/3gnKOcU. A similar issue was raised when the paddleboard industry began to boom. In 2008, USCG made the determination paddleboards used outside a swimming or surfing area are “vessels.” The designation requires paddleboarders to have a life jacket, a whistle to warn other boaters if necessary or in an emergency, a navigation light after sunset and to know and follow the Navigation Rules.

oaters or those with electric watercraft looking to get more information or to register their vessel can reach out the DMV. Boaters who would like to report safety issues seen in Southern California harbors can contact the USCG District Eleven Prevention Division or their local harbor department.

label incorporating elements that consumers rated as most effective, including visual reinforcement, coloring, and clear, unambiguous language. The poll found 91.26% of respondents thought the prototype was either somewhat effective or very effective in showing that the fuel is hazardous to certain types of engines, compared to just 55.34% for the current label. “If there’s one thing apparent from the latest findings, it’s that we should be doing more to educate and warn consumers about the potential hazards of E15—not obscuring this information and increasing the likelihood that people will unknowingly incur costly damages,” said Nicole Vasilaros, Senior Vice President of Government and Legal Affairs at NMMA, in a released statement.
Sea Tow Southcentral Alaska named Franchise of the Year ALASKA—Sea Tow named Capt. Trey and Alyssa Hill, co-owners of the on-water service provider Sea Tow Southcentral Alaska, Franchise of the Year at Sea Tow’s annual meeting, which was held virtually on Nov. 18 because of the Covid-19 pandemic. The Franchise of the Year award goes to the Sea Tow location that exemplifies the company’s “high standards of service and operation,” according to the press release. “Trey and Alyssa have shown their dedication to the boating community throughout Alaska,” Sea Tow CEO Joseph Frohnhoefer III said in a released statement. “With three locations (Homer, Seward and Whittier) under their watch, the Hills continue to provide superior customer service, while also helping expand the Sea Tow footprint to service even more boating communities. They are everything we could ask for, and more, in franchise owners.” Avid recreational boaters in Kachemak Bay, the Hills joined the franchise after experiencing the frustration of being stranded when their boat broke down several miles offshore. They started Sea Tow Southcentral Alaska in 2018, the first location in the state for the franchise. Based out of Homer, their three boats provide on-water assistance to mariners in Kachemak Bay and lower Cook Inlet as well Seward and Prince William Sound. Working with the Sea Tow Foundation, they also have a Life Jacket Loaner Station at their office on the Homer Spit that loans out personal floata-
tion devices free of charge. “We are both humbled and proud to receive this award,” Trey Hill said a released statement. “We love what we do and will continue to bring peaceof-mind to boaters by standing by ready to assist when they need it most. We look forward to continuing to grow with the local boating community.”

Throughout 2020, Freedom Boat Club has experienced record growth, completing more than 400,000 trips during the year and exposing a broader range of consumers to the boating lifestyle. “We are thrilled to be part of such an important milestone for Freedom Boat Club,” said Bev Rosella, Freedom Boat Club franchisee in a released statement. “When we opened our first location, we hoped that we could create an experience for our members that would allow them to have lifelong memories on the water. To have nine locations now is just incredible and we look forward to meeting new boaters in the Philadelphia area.” The Delran location will be located at Dredge Harbor Boat Center, 67 St Mihiel Dr, Delran, New Jersey.

CYBA contract or a contract drafted by an experienced attorney. A broker may use a purchase contracts that he found on the internet or pieced together from several different documents. These documents may be created without the benefit of any legal advice, and they tend to be very ambiguous. For example, many of the non-CYBA forms make no provision for the “signing off,” or acceptance of the survey or other contingency, or they fail to describe the circumstances in which the buyer’s deposit may be at risk. Ambiguity often leads to litigation. Regardless of the language of the contract, a buyer’s deposit will not be at risk unless the buyer breaches the purchase contract. Problems arise when the ambiguity of a contract makes it very diffi-
accidental death on July 8. The 33-yearold actress had rented a pontoon boat on the lake on July 8. Her son was found sleeping and alone on the drifting boat later that afternoon by authorities while Rivera was missing. Her body was found in the lake five days later. The lawsuit alleges negligence, arguing the pontoon boat lacked a safely accessible ladder, radio, rope, anchor or other equipment to keep swimmers from being separated from the boat. It also didn’t have a life preserver or other flotation or lifesaving devices, according to the suit. The man who rented Rivera the boat has said she declined a life vest, but he put one aboard anyway. The suit also alleges there weren’t any signs in the area warning “of the lake’s strong currents, low visibility, high winds” and other dangers even though at least 26 people have drowned there since the lake opened in 1959.
cult to determine whether the contract has been breached. Even in the event of a breach, the contract must include some language which ties the deposit into the seller’s remedy for a buyer’s breach of the contract (typically, a “liquidated damages” clause). If the language of the contract is so ambiguous that it is impossible for the parties to determine whether a breach has occurred or whether the deposit should be returned, the entire mess will end up in court. The best advice that I can offer a buyer regarding the purchase deposit is to read the contract carefully, and be sure that all of the buyer’s obligations in the contract are clearly spelled out. Don’t be afraid of “legalese.” If the language of a contract is so convoluted that it is impossible to understand, a jury won’t understand it either. Ask the broker to explain your rights and obligations in plain English, or - better yet - talk to an attorney.

King Tides bring high waters to Southern California Nov. 15 and 16 By LINDSEY GLASGOW NEWPORT BEACH—A King Tides event on Nov. 15 and 16 brought high tides to the Southern California coast and high water levels to harbors. King Tides are extremely high tides caused by the alignment of the gravitational pull between sun, moon, and earth. The photo on the left was taken at 8:22 a.m. on Nov. 15 at 10th Street and W Bay Avenue in Newport Beach. The photo on the right was taken at 8:32 a.m. on Nov. 15 on the bayside of the Long Beach Peninsula. The photos were submitted to the King Tides Project, which uses photos submitted by the public to document current flood risk in coastal areas and visualize the future coast should sea level rise predications prove accurate. The project asks members of the public to document and submit photos of the coast and harbors during these events. Another round of King Tides arrives Dec. 13 and 15. Those interested in submitting a photo to the King Tides Project can visit coastal.ca.gov/kingtides/index.html for more information.

Art exhibit of original naval paintings to visit Santa Barbara Maritime Museum By LINDSEY GLASGOW S A NTA BA RBA R A —An exhibit of 53 paintings chronicling the accomplishments of the US Navy will be on display at the Santa Barbara Maritime Museum for the next six months. The exhibit, Arthur Beaumont: Art of the Sea, features a collection of paintings by Arthur Beaumont, who served as the Navy’s “Artist of the Fleet” and documented various naval events. The exhibit was set to debut Dec. 3 but as of the time this paper went to press, the museum remained closed due to Covid19 restrictions. The exhibit will be on display through May 30, 2021. In addition to Beaumont’s paintings, the show will be accompanied by a book of his life and art, also entitled Arthur Beaumont: Art of the Sea, written by Beaumont’s son Geoffrey Campbell Beaumont and published by The Irvine Museum. On January 21, 2021, the author will offer a presentation about the exhibit and his father’s life as part of SBMM’s distinguished lecture series. Beaumont received a commission as a lieutenant in the Navy and became the
“Artist of the Fleet” in 1933. His earliest paintings showed naval vessels in various settings and states of preparedness, but following Pearl Harbor, his work supported the US war effort and reflected life or death struggles in the Pacific and, in 1944, he was given the official title of War Correspondent. Following the end of World War II, Beaumont became the official artist for Operation Crossroads, documenting the Navy’s first tests of the nuclear bomb, and continued to travel with and paint for the US Navy on missions to China and Japan. In addition to his work during the Korean War, in the production of movies, in private commissions and personal painting, Beaumont accepted three assignments from the Navy in the 1950s and 60s to paint frozen landscapes in Alaska and Antarctica. Over the remaining years of his life, he painted the RMS Queen Mary as it arrived in Los Angeles, a series of Revolutionary War-era sailing vessels, portraits of prominent naval officers, and operations along the Mekong River during the Vietnam War.

Catalina Connection Boat traffic to Catalina Island up compared to last year AVALON HARBOR ACTIVITY REPORT By LINDSEY GLASGOW
OCTOBER 2020
AVALON —It’s been several months since the Avalon
Harbor Department released a harbor activity report. There were some positive comparisons reported in the latest report, released for October 2020. There were 1934 vessels on moorings this October versus 1484 last October and the vessels stayed a total of 6375 nights this October versus 5013 nights last year. There were three weather warnings this October compared to 12 in October 2019. Avalon Harbor experienced its first North Eastern this season on October 26th. The City’s pier end float capsized, but remained secured to the mooring. A 64foot power boat was blown into Descanso Bay and a sail boat ended up on Pebbly Beach. Each of these two vessels were anchored outside City of Avalon waters and neither of them had anyone on board at the time. All EMT-trained Harbor Patrol officers, along with Baywatch and both fire departments, participated in an annual two-day continuing education course to maintain their certifications.

With winter approaching, the harbor department reminds vessel operators to monitor weather and sea conditions to ensure that their vessels are safely secured for the relevant conditions. This may include, but is not limited to, additional lines, chaffing gear or other precautions as appropriate. Operators are ultimately responsible for their vessels and passengers, especially if their vessel breaks free and becomes a hazard to navigation and/or life. Since the last Harbor Activity Report in February 2020, both Carnival Cruise ships, the Imagination and the Inspiration have been sold. The Tuesday visits by the Inspiration were replaced with the Carnival Radiance (passenger capacity of 2984). Currently, its first visit to Avalon is scheduled for April 27, 2021. According to the harbor activity report, the department is not aware of a replacement ship for the Monday visits. It was reported that a few cruise lines were making inquiries about dates in 2021. Other harbor updates included news the pier end float, the clubs dinghy docks, the Barbara Pearson dinghy dock, the Yacht Club float, the Tuna Club float, the Hamilton Cove float, the Jet Ski Barge, and Joe’s Rent-a-Boat string lines and floats were all removed for the season.

NEAR GRIDLOCK AT SAN PEDRO BAY PORT COMPLEX AMID BEST MONTH IN 114 YEARS FOR PORT OF LA As activity at the port booms, retailers and other shippers say they are experiencing growing delays and increased charges as the Port of Los Angeles and others across the U.S. attempt to keep up with the rapid increase in container volume. By LINDSEY GLASGOW LOS ANGELES —More shipping
vessels have been idling outside the Port of Los Angeles and Port of Long Beach as the ports experienced a surge in cargo volume leading to growing delays for shippers looking to load and unload. “Container dwell time on terminals has doubled during this import serge to five days,” Port of Los Angeles Executive Director Gene Seroka said in a Nov.
18 video update. “Street dwell times while waiting for warehouse space to open up has also doubled to 7.1 days.” October marked the busiest month in the Port of LA’s 114year history, propelled in part by replenishment of inventories and retailers preparing for upcoming holidays. The Port of LA processed 980,729 Twenty-Foot Equivalent Units (TEUs) in October, an increase of 27.3% compared to October 2019. “The spike in imports is unpreceded in scale, breaking new records on a monthly basis,” Se-
roka said. The Port of Long Beach also achieved another single-month record in October, processing more than 800,000 cargo containers for the first time in its 109-year history. The Home Furnishings Association (HFA), the trade group for U.S. home furnishing retailers, and other industry groups joined together in a letter to the Federal Maritime Commission (FMC) seeking actions to clear the bottlenecks at ports across the U.S. The letter cited worsening delays and inefficiencies

at Southern California ports, which the associations said are knotting an already constricted supply chain and raising costs for many furniture importers, manufacturers and retailers. “Despite months of effort to work with various supply-chain partners, including the ocean carriers and marine terminals, the San Pedro Bay port complex devolved to virtual gridlock due to a lack of collaboration needed for advanced planning,” the letter stated. “Much of this lack of collaboration can be attributed to the foreign-owned ocean carriers.” The groups asked the Federal Maritime Commission to suspend unreasonable detention and demurrage charges on containers and chassis at the Los Angeles and Long Beach ports. Demurrage charges apply when an inbound container remains within a terminal beyond the free time allowed. Detention refers to the charge for use of the container outside the terminal or depot beyond a free time period. Industry groups contend these charges pile up because of policies and practices beyond their control. The FMC has already announced that it will investi-
gate the current situation at the ports. Among the issues cited for the investigation were demurrage and detention charges in the ports of Los Angeles, Long Beach, and New York/New Jersey and their impact on trade. Seroka on Nov. 18 outlined some of the Port’s efforts to address the issues brought about by the volume. He said they are using Port Optimizer™ data and expertise of supply chain partners to prepare for a range of scenarios to respond to market demands in the months ahead. He also announced the launch of “The Return Signal,” a new data tool that will assist the trucking community to know when and where to return empty containers to cargo terminals throughout the San Pedro Bay complex. “Here’s what we need to focus on to move the needle, first, I’ve been advocating for a comprehensive digitalization strategy throughout the complex for many years, we need to use real-time data to make smart decisions,” Seroka said. In a few weeks, Port staff is expected to present two monetary incentive programs to the Los Angeles Harbor Commission with the goal of improving efficiency.

the end of the month to participate in a survey about a proposal to add an additional public anchorage location in Newport Beach Harbor. Currently, Newport Beach Harbor has one designated public anchorage area located east of Lido Isle. This location allows boaters to anchor safely to relax and enjoy stationary time aboard their vessels outside of the harbor’s active navigational channels. Both day and short-term overnight use of the existing anchorage is allowed, with overnight use of the anchor-

The West Anchorage is proposed as a second public anchorage area in Newport Beach Harbor. age limited to a maximum of three days in a 30-day period. Users of the anchorage must adhere to various safety rules, including the vessel’s skipper remaining aboard the vessel while in the anchorage, at almost all times. According to city staff, during the summer months, when recreational boating is typically most active, it is not unusual to find the anchorage congested and at full capacity with no room for additional recreational boaters to find safe anchorage. In an effort to provide the harbor’s boating community an alternative anchorage location and reduce the potential of crowding and over-capacity use of the only existing designated anchorage, the city established a trial anchorage west of Lido Isle near the Turning Basin, dubbed the West Anchorage. The trial anchorage was in place during 2015, 2016 and 2017 and according to the city, the trial was well received. According to previous Log reporting,
Historical
plans to make the city’s second public anchorage permanent began in 2018 with a recommendation by the Newport Beach Harbor Commission. City staff then submitted a formal proposal to the U.S. Coast Guard for a permanent and yearround anchorage at the location. Log reporting stated the Coast Guard withheld initial support of the city’s plans, with two sources with the city saying high traffic volume in the Turning Basin area was cited as the reason for the lack of Coast Guard support. A page on the city’s website has been set up for the West Anchorage. According to the webpage, the city is pursuing a request for consideration from the U.S. Coast Guard for a long-term anchorage designation in the Turning Basin. The Harbor Department is soliciting feedback from the public on the proposed West Anchorage, through a brief online survey, which can be found at bit.ly/39s6pzj. The survey will remain open through Dec. 31.

AVALON—Sugarloaf Point, pictured here, was Catalina Island’s most recognizable landmark long before the Casino was built in its place. Sugarloaf Point was given its name by early sailors who thought the point resembled Mt. Sugarloaf in Brazil. During the 1890s, a vertical staircase was built on the Little Sugarloaf Rock. The staircase led to a viewing platform where visitors could take in the beauty of Avalon. Precarious by nature, the staircase led to many folks needing assistance to get down. According to the Catalina Island Museum, many island children waited happily at the bottom to assist them - for a fee!

Sea level rise planning included in Santa Barbara Harbor five-year funding plan New capital projects being prioritized for funding and execution in fiscal year 2023 include sea level rise adaptation for Stern’s Wharf, the breakwater and the harbor/marina, among others. By LINDSEY GLASGOW SANTA BARBARA —The Santa Barbara
Waterfront Department’s planned budget for the next five years includes funding to further study and plan for the effects of sea level rise. The Santa Barbara Harbor Commission at its Nov. 19 meeting approved the Waterfront Department’s proposed fiveyear Capital Improvement Plan (CIP), a planning tool for developing and evaluating capital project funding needs. Among the new capital projects being prioritized for funding and execution in fiscal year 2023 is sea level rise adaption for the breakwater, Sterns Wharf and harbor/marina. The department budgeted $100,000 for each of the three areas. “Other departments, us and Public Works and some of the main players being effected, are starting to put small dollar amounts in there, not to do any physical work, but to kind of further study and get our heads around what timeline we’re going to have to start allocating big dollar amounts for this and get a better handle on what needs to be done,” Waterfront Director Mike Wiltshire told commissioners at the Nov. 19 meeting. This comes on the heels of the release of the city’s Sea-Level Rise Adaptation Plan, which includes recommended actions for the city to take in the coming years to mitigate impacts of potential sea level rise. The plan is largely based on projections from a 2018 statewide analysis of potential sea-level rise scenarios. Actions in the plan include raising or modifying the harbor breakwater, rock groin, sandspit, and the walkway and wall spanning from the breakwater to the harbor commercial area; pursuing Army Corps of Engineers feasibility studies, funding, and assistance
with these projects; renovating marina facilities and the City Pier in phases; continuing use of beach berms and considering additional beach or dune nourishment south of the harbor commercial area; continuing the current regulatory practice of limiting uses in the harbor; and requiring new development and substantial redevelopment be designed to avoid or mitigate the impacts associated with sea-level rise. The plan specifically recommended to start in the next few years to plan for replacement or modification of the harbor breakwater, walkway, and seawall that spans from the breakwater to the waterfront offices in the harbor commercial area as well as the sandspit and rock groin. “This is really money to begin the process of further studying how we’ll be tackling the effects of sea level rise,” Wiltshire said at the commission meeting. The commission approved the fiveyear CIP, but Commissioner Michael Nelson questioned why they were planning to spend $400,000 on what is projected to be a billion-dollar project. “$100,000 is not going to address our problems, our billions of dollars problems,” Nelson said. “I’m going to vote for this recommendation but reserve the right to be annoying and obnoxious later on.” Wiltshire welcomed the comments. “These dollars need to be scrutinized and talked about,” Wiltshire responded. Other new capital projects prioritized for funding and execution as a part of the coming two-year budget cycle include marina management software; renewing parking kiosks for Harbor Main and Los Banos; replacing the Stearns Wharf waterline; upgrading the waterfront maintenance shop; replacing the Stearns Wharf sewer lift stations; replacing the roof at the harbor 132 building; remodeling the Leadbetter public restrooms; replacing City Pier hoists; and replacing Harbor Patrol Boat 3. The department must prepare and submit the fiscal year 2022-2023 budget to the City Council by February 1, 2021. Final approval of the specific CIP projects will occur when Council adopts the city’s budget in June 2021. Future year projects for fiscal year 2024-2026 will not be funded as part of the upcoming budget process, but are included in the Five-Year CIP for advance planning purposes.

‘Conception’ captain charged with 34 counts of seaman’s manslaughter The indictment was filed Dec. 1 and alleges Jerry Boylan caused the deaths of 33 passengers and one crewmember “by his misconduct, negligence, and inattention to his duties.” By LINDSEY GLASGOW LOS ANGELES —Jerry Boylan, the captain of the Santa Barbarabased dive boat that caught fire last year, has been indicted by a federal grand jury on 34 counts of seaman’s manslaughter. Each charge of seaman’s manslaughter carries a statutory maximum penalty of 10 years in federal prison. The 67-year-old was the captain aboard Conception when it caught fire during a Labor Day weekend dive trip in 2019 while anchored near Santa Cruz Island. One crewmember and 33 passengers who had been sleeping below deck were killed in the blaze. Five crewmembers, including Boylan, escaped and survived.. The indictment, filed Dec. 1, alleges Boylan, as the captain and master of the vessel, “was responsible for the safety and security of the vessel, its crew, and its passengers.” The indictment alleges that Boylan caused the deaths “by his misconduct, negligence, and inattention to his duties.” The indictment cites three specific safety violations: failing to have a night watch or roving patrol, which was required by the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) and for over 20 years was
a requirement in the Conception’s Certificate of Inspection issued by the U.S. Coast Guard; failing to conduct sufficient fire drills, which are mandated in the CFR; and failing to conduct sufficient crew training, which was also required by the CFR. “As a result of the alleged failures of Captain Boylan to follow well-established safety rules, a pleasant holiday dive trip turned into a hellish nightmare as passengers and one crew member found themselves trapped in a fiery bunkroom with no means of escape,” United States Attorney Nick Hanna said in a released statement. “The loss of life that day will forever impact the families of the 34 victims. With this indictment and our commitment to vigorously prosecute the case, we seek a small measure of justice for the victims and their loved ones.” The indictment comes about two months after the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) released its investigation findings, probable cause determination, recommendations and draft final report. NTSB could not determine the exact cause of the fire due to the extent of the blaze and condition of the vessel. However, NTSB determined the probable cause to be the failure of Truth Aquatics Inc. – the vessel’s owner – to provide effective oversight of its vessel and crew member operations including requirements to ensure a roving patrol was maintained. NTSB said the absence of the required roving patrol delayed detection of the fire, allowed it to grow and directly led to the high number of fatalities. The report also critiqued USCG inspections and rules and called for USCG to change regulations to require all vessels with overnight accommo-
dations to have interconnected smoke detectors in all passenger areas and require a secondary means of escape into a different space than the primary exit. The NTSB also called on USCG to develop and implement an inspection program to verify that roving patrols are conducted – as required – for the safety of sleeping passengers and crew. USCG has not implemented changes to the federal regulations or design criteria for small passenger vessels at this time. The USCG’s own investigation into the deadly fire is still ongoing. “The Coast Guard will carefully consider the National Transportation Safety Board’s recommendations through a deliberate process, which will include review by all subject matter experts and senior leaders responsible for implementing the potential regulatory changes,” USCG Media Relations CWO Kurt Fredrickson said in an email. Meanwhile, legislation called the Small Passenger Vessel Safety Act, which would require the USCG to modernize and update its regulation of escape hatches, batteries, smoke detectors, and night watch check-ins, is making its way through Congress. As for owners of the Conception, Glen and Dana Fritzler of Truth Aquatics, lawsuits were brought against them by one crewmember, who was injured while escaping the fire, and several family members of the deceased. The Fritzlers had filed for protection from lawsuits under an 1851 law known as the Limitation of Liability Act. The law limits any compensation sought by survivors of the victims to the value of the ship’s remains. Since the Conception burned to its waterline and sank, its value was zero. On Oct. 1, 2019, Truth Aquatics officially suspended all operations of their fleet, saying “we feel it’s important dedicate our entire efforts to make our boat models of new regulations that we will continue to work on with

NMMA CANCELS BOAT SHOWS, THREE STILL ON DOCKET FOR EARLY 2021
Covid-19 continues to bring uncertainty for boat shows in 2021.
By LINDSEY GLASGOW WASHINGTON —With Covid-19 uncer-
tainty lingering into the end of the year, the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA) announced significant modifications to its boat and sport show schedule for the first months of 2021. NMMA canceled nine shows in the first quarter of 2021 and planned to move forward with three shows, either as currently scheduled or postponed to a later date. NMMA said the decision was made following a thorough market-by-market analysis regarding the feasibility of producing safe and successful winter events. Canceled shows include Progressive Insurance Atlanta Boat Show, Progressive Insurance Baltimore Boat Show, Progressive Insurance Chicago Boat Show, Progressive Insurance Louisville Boat, RV & Sportshow, Progressive Insurance Miami International Boat Show, Progressive Insurance Minneapolis Boat Show, Progressive Insurance Nashville Boat Show, Progressive Insurance New York Boat Show and Progressive Insurance St. Louis Boat & Sportshow. The Progressive Insurance Atlantic City Boat Show scheduled for Feb. 2428, 2021, Progressive Insurance Northwest Sportshow scheduled for March 2528, 2021 and Progressive Insurance New England Boat Show, which does not yet have set dates, are still on the books. The Atlantic City Boat Show remains on the books with the option to delay the show to early April 2021. “At this time we decided to keep them on the books because we have the option of delaying them but never the less, whatever decision we make or not make on that will be solely guarded on the principle of health and safety,” NMMA Vice President of North American Public Affairs John-Michael Donahue said. Donahue said exhibitors for these shows expressed an interest in still having a show, which was another factor in the decision. “Boat shows are very important to the industry, so with hearing from their feedback and that they would like to try and
make it work if possible, that factored into it with the demand,” Donahue said. NMMA said they are working with local health officials in each of the markets, along with the venues themselves to develop a comprehensive plan for what the show would look like in the situation that it moves forward. Donahue said they will be releasing safety measures for each show in the coming weeks. Masks and additional spacing between exhibitors are something expected across all three shows he said. Due to the fluid nature of the Covid19 situation, these shows have the potential to get canceled or postponed as the dates get closer. “We do need to again look at this from is it safe and is it going to be a good decision for everyone involved,” Donahue said. Locally in Southern California, boat shows have been on a hiatus since midMarch. In late November, San Diego Sunroad Marina Boat Show, which was scheduled for Jan. 28-31, 2021, announced the show would be postponed. “Our top priority is the well-being of our employees, customers, partners, and event attendees,” a statement on the show’s website read. “After much consideration and due to the rules set forth by the state of California and the County of San Diego, we have been forced to make the decision to postpone the January 2021 boat show.” Duncan McIntosh Company Inc., publisher of The Log and producer of several local boat shows including the Newport Boat Show, San Diego Boat Show and Los Angeles Boat Show, is also monitoring the situation regarding local and state Covid-19 restrictions. “As soon as we get the green light to hold our boat shows we will be announcing the dates,” DMCI said in a statement. While boat shows remain on a hiatus for the foreseeable future, NMMA said they are working on online offerings. Details are expected in the coming weeks. “We’re exploring a wide variety of options including how we move some of this online,” Donahue said. Donahue said he is hopeful that by the summer and fall they will be able to resume their regular boat show schedule. “There’s a great amount of uncertainty around all this, it is our hope and expectation that by the summer and fall we’ll be able to resume a full show schedule,” Donahue said.

SailGP announces updated schedule for the first half of its second season The modified schedule has the opening events now set for the island of Bermuda on April 24 and 25, 2021 and the southern Italian city of Taranto on June 5 and 6, 2021. By LINDSEY GLASGOW LO ND O N —Sa ilGP a nnounced a n
updated schedule for the first half of its second season due to concerns about the coronavirus, with the San Francisco event now serving as the SailGP Season 2 Grand Final. SailGP announced the new schedule on Nov. 23. This comes after SailGP postponed season 2 due to Covid-19. Opening events are now set for the island of Bermuda on April 24 and 25, 2021 and the southern Italian city of Taran-
to on June 5 and 6, 2021. San Francisco and New York were initially set to host the first events but the league shifted the schedule to ensure greater certainty and reduce travel in the early part of the year. The Bermuda Grand Prix presented by Hamilton Princess will set the stage for an expanded season that is planned to feature nine events. The event in Taranto will be the first-ever Italy Grand Prix. According to SailGP, due to the fact Bermuda has been largely shielded from the pandemic and the island’s successful health and safety measures, Bermuda is an ideal venue to restart SailGP’s global racing championship and host pre-season training. Following the league’s restart in Bermuda, SailGP will shift to Europe – where four of its eight national teams are based – for a series of five grand prix events beginning in Taranto. Italy has long been one of the top sailing destinations in the world, and the southern coastal city will welcome SailGP for the
first time. “We’re incredibly pleased that our venue partner portfolio has expanded to include events in Bermuda and Italy,” SailGP CEO Sir Russell Coutts said in a released statement. “Both venues should provide excellent conditions for our high speed, close-to-shore racing. This new schedule allows us to plan our first events of 2021 with more confidence while still retaining a U.S. event at the end of the season.” As previously announced, the Great Britain Grand Prix Plymouth will then take place on July 17-18, followed by the ROCKWOOL Denmark Grand Prix Aarhus on August 20-21. Two additional European host cities will be announced with the remaining season schedule in early December. The United States Grand Prix San Francisco will now serve as the SailGP Season 2 Grand Final, and is planned to take place in April 2022. The Grand Final features the top two teams in a $1 million winner-takes-all match race.

Contact SCYA staff at 562-433-7426 or service@scya.org for questions about the dinner event. As SCYA moves into its 100th year, the association is soliciting input on plans to create a “Cruising Calendar” for its membership clubs and yachting organizations. While the calendar is focused on cruising activities first, SCYA said it is the intention to evolve it to other events such as regattas, power boat activities, training, and social events open to the SCYA membership at large. SCYA said even land cruising events are being considered. SCYA is looking for input to help evolve what the offering will be. “Please feel free to post your questions or pointers to help guide where the calendar goes and what that feature on our website will evolve to,” SCYA said in a Nov. 15 Facebook post.

CDFW awards $10.7 million for fisheries habitat restoration projects The California Department of Fish and Wildlife selected 27 projects to receive funding for the restoration, enhancement and protection of anadromous salmonid habitat in California watersheds. S A C R A M E N T O —T h e C a l i f o r n i a
Depa r t ment of Fish a nd W i ld life (CDFW) has awarded $10.7 million in grant funds to 27 projects across the state through the department’s Fisheries Restoration Grant Program (FRGP). CDFW solicited applicants and received 80 proposals requesting more than $40.6 million in funding through the 2020 Fisheries Habitat Restoration Grant Solicitation. As part of the competitive grant program, proposals underwent a rigorous technical review by CDFW and NOAA scientists. The 27 approved projects will further the objectives of state and federal fisheries recovery plans, including removing barriers to fish migration, restoring riparian habitat, monitoring of listed populations, and creating a more resilient and sustainably managed water resources system (e.g., water supply, water quality and habitat) that can
better withstand drought conditions. These projects further the goals of California’s Water Action Plan and CDFW’s State Wildlife Action Plan, as well as addressing limiting factors specified in state and federal recovery plans. “The ongoing momentum to restore California’s habitat for these historic species hasn’t stopped as we face a global pandemic and devastating wildf ires,” CDF W Director Charlton H. Bonham said in a released statement. “Awarding these projects highlights the resilience, passion and vison for salmon recovery by our state’s restoration community, for which we are grateful.” Two projects in Southern California were granted funds. The California Conservation Corps – Camarillo in Ventura County was granted $201,036 for public outreach efforts and joint CCC/ CDFW Southern California steelhead habitat restoration projects in Southern California coastal watersheds from Santa Barbara County to Los Angeles County. Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission was granted $388,261 to monitor the effectiveness of randomly selected restoration projects in central and southern California coastal watersheds; train and assist CDFW grant managers in per-treatment/implementation monitoring; conduct Q A/QC assessments and determine restoration effectiveness through qualitative and quantitative methods.
Since its establishment in 1981, the Fisheries Restoration Grant Program has invested millions of dollars to support projects from sediment reduction to watershed education throughout coastal California in response to declining populations of wild salmon and steelhead trout and deteriorating fish habitat. The California Conservation Corps - Watershed Stewards Program was g r a nt e d $6 17, 589 t o, i n pa r t ner ship with AmeriCorps (WSP), engage 44 WSP Corps members throughout coastal California to enhance anadromous watersheds through restoration and protection, community education and outreach events, recruiting volunteers for hands-on restoration projects, and professional development.
The Fisheries Habitat Restoration Grant Program was established in 1981 and has included funding from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOA A) Pacific Coastal Salmon Recovery Fund since 2000. The federal fund was established by Congress in 2000 to reverse the declines of Pacific salmon and steelhead throughout California, Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Alaska.

Analysis finds poachers are staying out of Channel Islands Marine Protected Areas The analysis found harvest rates are effectively zero inside most Channel Islands MPAs while high harvest rates at several sites where fishing remains legal are up to 10 times greater than previous regional-scale estimates. By LINDSEY GLASGOW
CHANNEL ISLANDS—A new population analy-
sis by an Oregon State University researcher has found fish are thriving and poachers are staying out of marine protected areas around California’s Channel Islands. Findings of the analysis were published Dec. 2 in Conservation Letters, a journal for the Society for Conservation Biology, by Will White, a marine ecologist with Oregon State’s Coastal Oregon Marine Experiment Station in Newport; Mark Yamane, an undergraduate student participating in a National Science Foundation-sponsored research experience at Hatfield Marine Science Center; Kerry Nickols of California State University, Northridge; and Jennifer Caselle of the University of California, Santa Barbara. The study estimated harvest rates for four kelp forest fish species - which are frequently targeted by recreational and/ or commercial fishers - inside marine protected areas (MPAs) and non-MPA reference sites in the Channel Islands from 2003 to 2017. The research found harvest rates were effectively zero in MPAs for the four species, indicating illegal fishing was not taking place in the protected areas. Two locations showed a low harvest rate, suggesting some poaching may be occurring or the fish in those areas may be straying outside protected boundaries. “Based on that evidence we cautiously suggest the straying/spillover explanation is the most likely,” the authors wrote. “Nonetheless, these results can guide managers in allocating enforce-
ment resources toward particular locations.” Researchers also estimated high harvest rates–up to 10 times greater than previous regional-scale estimates–at several sites where fishing remains legal, indicating more fishers, displaced from the MPAs, might be fishing areas outside the protected regions. The study did not directly test that hypothesis. While other studies have looked at whether fish abundance or biomass increased in or near MPAs, this study is believed to be the first to directly assess whether MPAs have eliminated harvest in a fished population. “This is an important advance in MPA assessment, because a major concern in MPA design is that fish will tend to move across MPA boundaries and be captured, even if the center of their home range is inside an MPA,” the authors wrote. The analysis stated estimated harvest rates outside of the MPAs in the study were considerably higher than prior estimates based on the most recent assessments of those stocks. However, the analysis suggested such spillover is minimal for most of the Channel Island MPAs, because the fish populations within MPAs resemble unfished populations, not populations in which large individuals are removed if they stray into fished areas. “That movement would reduce the effectiveness of the MPA, although in some cases such spillover is a desirable outcome to support fisheries,” the report’s authors stated. Since the formation of the MPAs, there has been a balancing act between meeting angling and boating interests and conservation. The network of 11 nearshore MPAs was established at the northern Santa Barbara Channel Islands in 2003 with the primary goal to conserve ecosystem biodiversity. According to the authors, studies have found an overall increase in biomass of fishery targeted species in Channel Islands MPAs. The analysis questioned if fishing effort, having been displaced from the areas now encompassed by the MPAs, has been concentrated in the remaining surrounding habitats and what the impacts of that might be. “What remains to be investigated is the degree to which fishery yields might increase as a result of larval spillover from MPAs,” the authors wrote. The results from the analysis will inform the coming assessment of California’s MPA network in 2022, which will be the first decadal management review of the state’s MPA network.

fishing so far this December with bluefin tuna, yellowtail and swordfish biting on the offshore fishing grounds. Recent days of fishing have seen near limit, to limit numbers of bluefin tuna caught out by the Tanner Bank and limits of yellowtail have been caught from kelp paddies found at some of the offshore banks outside of Ensenada. Swordfish also remain in the picture with deep drop fishing techniques producing some swordfish fishing excitement for boats fishing offshore banks outside of San Diego.
Bluefin tuna have been grabbing the headlines through most of the 2020 offshore fishing season and nothing has changed as the first weekend in December saw sportboats fishing the area between the Tanner Bank and the 267 Spot that is easterly of the Tanner Bank finding near limit, to limit bluefin tuna fishing. The recent catches of bluefin have been made up of mostly 40-pound class fish with bigger fish also in the mix that go to 200 pounds. The best zone is currently while fishing between 75 and 85 miles at 250 to 251 degrees from Point Loma. Most of the bluefin action has been originating from stopping on meter marks, sonar marks and spots of breaking fish. Sardines, mackerel, live squid, Flat Fall jigs and kite fished frozen flying fish have all been working for bluefin. In other offshore areas, recent days have seen limit catches of yellowtail being caught from kelp paddies found at some of the offshore banks outside of Ensenada. Most of the yellowtail have been in the four to 12-pound range and productive areas have been while fishing the region to the east of the Upper 500 Bank and around the 295 Bank and the 238 Spot. This has you fishing from 50 to 65 miles 170 to 180 degrees from Point Loma. The offshore fishing grounds have also been providing late season opportunities at catching a swordfish. The deep drop method has been working for boats fishing some of the offshore banks outside of San Diego such as the 9 Mile Bank, 178 Spot, 224 Spot, 302 Spot, 182 Spot, 181 Spot and 289 Spot. The most consistent swordfish bite area has been fishing the back side of the 9 Mile Bank in an area a short distance above the Mexico border. There have been sportfishing boats and commercial fishing boats that have been fishing the swordfish via the deep drop method and there have been a fair number of bites reported along with occasional hookups and boated fish. Productive baits include mackerel, large frozen squid and bonito. The fishing at Los Coronado Islands has drawn more attention lately and what has been found is good fishing for rockfish and bonito along with a chance at a yellowtail. The yellowtail bite might well be improving as San Diego out of
Seaforth Sportfishing found yellowtail biting on their last trip and had a fish count of 18 anglers on a full day trip catching 88 rockfish, 31 reds, 13 yellowtail, two bonito and one lingcod. Productive areas for bonito have been North Island, the Middle Grounds and the region of the tuna pens in the lee of South Island. A reminder about fishing around the tuna pens is that it is illegal to do any recreational fishing activity within 250 meters of any commercial activity (including tuna pens) while in Mexican waters. Try for yellowtail by locating meter marks, sonar marks and spots of working birds around North Island. Yo-yo iron and dropper loop fished sardines or mackerel would be good things to try for yellowtail. Rockfish have been biting at hard bottom areas into the north, northwest and east of North Island as well as at hard bottom areas below South Island. Productive depths for rockfish have been ranging from 25 to 50 fathoms of water. The fishing along the San Diego County coast remains good for reds, salmon grouper, whitefish and sculpin. There have also been some flurries of sand bass for boats fishing off Imperial Beach and an occasional yellowtail or halibut have also been biting. Hard bottom and structure areas have been producing the bottom fishing catch along the San Diego County coast and productive areas have been the Imperial Beach Pipeline, the hard bottom to the southeast of the Whistler Buoy at Point Loma, the Green Tank, the 270, the upper end of La Jolla, Del Mar, Solana Beach, Leucadia, Carlsbad and Box Canyon. There have been occasional flurries of sand bass action for boats fishing hard bottom areas outside of Imperial Beach. Daily Double out of Point Loma Sportfishing made a noteworthy catch of sand bass on a recent half-day trip when 17 anglers caught 70 sand bass. A few halibut are being caught by boats drifting the sandy bottom next to hard bottom areas off Imperial Beach. A good depth range has been in 45 to 60 feet of water. Occasional halibut are also being reported by boats fishing outside of Mission Beach while drifting at the sandy bottom next to the structure of the Yukon shipwreck and the sunken NEL Tower.
Bob Vanian is the voice, writer and researcher of the San Diego-based internet fish report service called 976-Bite which can be found at www.976bite.com. Vanian also provides anglers with a personal fish report service over the telephone at (619) 226-8218. He always welcomes your fish reports at that same phone number or at bob976bite@aol.com.
