Archipelago often referred to as “North American Galapagos” was celebrated on March 7. By Catherine French VENTURA—Channel Islands National Park, on March 7, held a free public event in celebration of the park’s 40th anniversary at the Channel Islands National Park Robert J. Lagomarsino Visitor Center. Congress established the nation’s 40th national park on March 5, 1980, to be comprised of five islands: Santa Barbara, Anacapa, Santa Cruz, Santa Rosa, and San Miguel, plus the waters surrounding one nautical mile of each island. Often referred to as the North American Galapagos, the islands are home to plants and animals—about 150—not found anywhere else in the world, including the diminutive island fox, the rare Santa Cruz Island scrub jay, and the island poppy. Also, the park is essential in the lives of 99 percent of the sea birds of California and more than 100,000 seals and sea lions. The largest animal ever to live on the Earth, the blue whale, is a summer resident in the
cold nutrient rich waters of the park. Channel Islands National Park Superintendent Ethan McKinley delivered two lectures on the state of the park and future management actions; the lectures were held on March 5 and March at the park visitor center. A California native plant sale started the event at 9 a.m. and ran until 1 p.m., March 7, at the park’s native garden; the plant sale was sponsored by the Channel Islands Park Foundation and supported by volunteers from the Ventura County Master Gardeners. Also on March 7: Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History Paleontologist Dr. Jonathan Hoffman gave a lecture on the recently discovered sea cow fossil on Santa Rosa Island; and, Channel Islands Chumash descendent Julie Tumamait-Stenslie interacted with visitors through her Chumash storytelling. Throughout the day, segments from the 2016 documentary, West of the West: Tales from California’s Channel Islands – produced by Sam Tyler; written and directed by Peter Seaman and Brent Sumner – were shown providing viewers with an in-depth look into the life of island inhabitants and their history. Marina dock tours gave the public an up-close look at the National Park Service vessels. Biologists with the park’s kelp forest monitoring team
The Channel Islands National Park, which was established on March 5, 1980, celebrated its 40 th birthday earlier this month. The park, which has a formal visitors center (top photo), celebrates the five Channel Islands (Santa Barbara, Anacapa, Santa Cruz, Santa Rosa and San Miguel) and its diverse wildlife (bottom two photos). demonstrated the long-term monitoring techniques they use to better understand the health of the marine environment. Park rangers and biologists, during the March 7 event, spoke about opportunities for children to learn about a variety of careers in the National Park Ser-
vice. Children’s activities were enjoyed throughout the day, including a button making station and fish prints. A junior ranger station made it possible for children to complete activity booklets and earn junior ranger badges on site. Visit nps.gov/chis for more information.

Man confesses to stealing, sinking submarine 60 years after the incident LAKE GEORGE, New York— In the middle of a summer night in August 1960, a 15-foot yellow submarine, dubbed Baby Whale, was stolen from a dock on New York’s Lake George. The small sub was built by three men intended only for shallow exploration in Lake George; however, its seaworthiness was never tested. The location of the missing sub remained a mystery until 1995 when divers from Bateaux Below, an underwater archaeology group dedicated to finding and preserving sunken and historic boats, discovered the long-missing yel-

The magazine has served as the voice of boating trends in the western United States for more than 111 years. What Sea Mag will look like in its rebirth isn’t 100 percent clear, yet. Time will be needed to re-acclimate the magazine to its readership, advertisers, freelancers, editorial team and other interactive connections. All we know so far is Sea will have an April/May issue. The table is being set for Sea Mag’s June issue to be published reguarly. What that table looks like – and the items to be placed on said table – are yet to be determined. Bottom line is this: Sea Magazine is making a comeback, and we hope it’s not a one-hit wonder – like Mark Morrison’s “Return of the Mack.” (What was Mark returning from, anyway?)

IF farming mussels as easy as setting some lines for them to naturally grow on their own then it would be fine, IF NOT it is my water as well as theirs and I DO NOT WANT ANYTHING added to MY water to do it. We have a HUGE PROBLEM with the Salmon farming cover ups and releasing pesticides and who know what else they use. If it’s natural it’s okay with me.

Municipal Warehouse No. 1: Port of LA’s Welcome Building By Parimal M. Rohit SAN PEDRO—A six-story warehouse dominates the skyline at the southwestern corner of L.A. Harbor’s main channel. All boaters and cargo ship pilots who pass Angels Gate Lighthouse and into the Los Angeles Outer Harbor are immediately greeted by port district’s Municipal Warehouse No. 1. The six-story, 475,000-square-foot building opened for business in 1917
and, for a while, served as the only bonded warehouse at the Port of Los Angeles. The city spent almost $500,000 (1917 dollars) to build Municipal Warehouse No. 1 – that’s close to $10 million today. A water tower was built on the roof of Municipal Warehouse No. 1, to help prevent fires. The warehouse apparently doubled as a supply depot during World War II, when the U.S. Navy assumed control of the building. It continued to be used as a bonded warehouse in more recent times, as containers became the norm at the
port district. There’s actually quite a bit of filming at Municipal Warehouse No. 1, in recent years. “Teen Wolf” – the television show, not the movie – was filmed at the warehouse, according to The Daily Breeze. A ballot initiative was introduced in 2017 to determine whether the warehouse should be converted into a waterfront hotel. The Port of Los Angeles just issued a prospectus, announcing it would accept Requests for Proposals to redevelop Municipal Warehouse No. 1 as a commercial or visitor-serving use (see Blips on the Radar). Municipal Warehouse No. 1 was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in April 2000, according to news reports.

Take me out to the ball game AVALON—In honor of baseball opening day on March 26, here’s some history about one of America’s favorite pastimes on Catalina Island. According to the Catalina Chamber, the Chicago Cubs first visited Catalina Island in 1920, kicking off what would be three decades of spring training on the island. By the middle of the ‘20s, William Wrigley, Jr. had built a spring training field that matched the dimensions of Chicago’s Wrigley Field and by the end of that decade; he had also constructed a clubhouse that would eventually become the Catalina Island Country Club. Catalina served as the Cubs’ spring training location until 1952, when Mesa, Arizona was chosen to become the team’s new training ground.

es on the stage again. Obviously we’re hopeful Sea 2.0 will last another 111 years (or longer). In an era where newspapers and magazines are constantly folding or merging, it’s nice to see Sea make its comeback (a real one, unlike Mark Morrison). Details are still being ironed out – such as Sea 2.0’s editorial team and the content the new staff would pursue. Boating World won’t be back, for now. Will Sea Mag incorporate elements of Boating World into its pages? How frequently would Sea be published? These questions – and more – are valid, and should be asked (and answered). But it’s a breath of fresh air for The Log to have one of its sister publications be brought back to life, about three
months after Sea Mag was a faint beep or two away from flat lining. The April/ May issue will be 72 pages in length and feature stories on composites, the Greenline 39, World Cat 400DC-X, Lexus Luxury and more. We do ask you be patient with us as we fine-tune, polish and put the finishing touches on Sea Magazine. Versions 2.1, 2.2 and beyond might be required, but rest assured we are taking the return of Sea Mag seriously. The Log will continue to be your go-to publication for SoCal and regional boating news, while Sea is about to re-discover its place West Coast outlet for boat trends. Feel free to email us if you have any suggestions, comments or concerns. I will be happy to field those emails – I can be found at parimal@thelog.com.

The Huntington Harbor Commission advises the City Council in matters pertaining to the harbor, its beaches, facilities, and parks. The commission has been focusing of four areas: safety, infrastructure, water quality and municipal codes.
Huntington Harbor Commission finds sea legs in first year The Commission held their first ever meeting on March 28, 2019. What’s been accomplished this past year? What’s next for 2020? By Lindsey Glasgow HUNTINGTON BEACH—The Huntington Harbor Commission is celebrating its one-year anniversary. The commission is the newest harbor commission in Southern California, with March 28 marking one year since their very first meeting. Harbor Commissioner Chair Bill Larkin said part of what makes Huntington Harbour unique compared to other Southern California harbors, is its quiet, residential personality. “It’s mostly a residential harbor, there’s not really a lot of commercial activity,” Larkin said. “You get some restaurants, kayak rentals and such but when you compare it to Newport or Los Alamitos or Port of Long Beach, San Diego, etc., it’s pretty unique.” Larkin and harbor commissioner Craig Schauppner said most of this first year has been about gathering information. “Our first year of existence I would call it as informational,” Schauppner said. “Getting us up to speed on the process of working in government and what not and we received a series of briefings from various organizations.” With several jurisdictions – city, county, state and federal – in charge of Huntington Harbour waters, the Harbor Commission has over the past year heard from various agencies including the State Lands Commission, Seal Beach Naval Weapon Stations, Orange County Water District and Huntington Beach city manager as they work to find their sea legs among these various agencies. Schauppner said the commis-
sion aims to serve as the eyes and the ears of the harbor and provide a conduit between the city and various harbor stakeholders. “That’s what we’re here to do is be the eyes and the ears,” Schauppner said. The commission has identified four focus areas: safety, infrastructure, water quality and municipal codes. Ad-hoc committees have been working on each of those areas over the past year and will continue to do so this year. “Because it’s a newer commission there’s not really projects that were ongoing and it’s been more of trying to be an advocate, giving representation of the harbor, bringing awareness for issues,” Larkin said. In the safety category, Larkin said they are working with operators of standup paddle boards (SUPs) and kayaks to come up with a “rules of the road” guidance and safety training for people who are renting equipment. The commissioners said they are hoping to recommend policies to the city to be implemented this year, which could include providing SUPs and kayak renters with a placard with a map of the harbor and emergency numbers. Another safety issue, brought to the attention of the commission from a citizen, is bridge jumping. The commissioners said they are working with the city on deterrence options, among them being adding lifeguards or some sort of enforcement presence at harbor beaches in the summer. Larkin said they are also looking at lighting bridges and getting lighted buoys to help with navigational visibility. On the infrastructure side of things, the commission is working on creating a comprehensive process for the issuance of permits to allow for private commercial business use of the harbor’s only public dock, which is situated in front of Huntington Harbour Yacht Club. The dock has been used for loading and unloading passengers by the handful of small commercial operations that operSee HUNTINGTON page 19

LEGISLATORS INTRODUCE TWO FISHING REGULATION PROPOSALS Fish that cannot be weighed or sized would be allowed to be brought ashore under SB 1080, while AB 3072 proposes minor changes sportfishing report card possession. By Parimal M. Rohit SACRAMENTO—Two bills proposing to make changes to California’s sportfishing regulations were introduced in both houses of California’s legislature on Feb. 19 and 20. One of those bills – Assembly Bill 3072 – makes non-substantive changes to existing law. The other proposal – Senate Bill 1080 – would change existing law to allow anglers to bring a fish whose weight or size could not be determined to shore, but under specific conditions.
SENATE BILL 1080 State Sen. Brian W. Jones, R-Escondido, introduced SB 1080 on Feb. 19. The proposal, titled “Fishing: Inspection of Fish,” would change existing law governing the recreational take of certain fish and whether it could be brought to shore. Existing law makes it illegal for any boat to possess or bring to shore, if the fish’s condition makes it impossible to determine its weight or size. Jones’s proposal would change California law to authorize anyone angling in a lake, at the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta or on any other inland water to bring a fish, whose condition makes it impossible to determine its size
or weight, ashore, so long as it can be cleaned or otherwise cut once the fishing trip is over. The boat must be “temporarily attached to a dock or other permanent structure” at the end of the fishing trip. SB 1080’s first stop is the State Senate is the Rules Committee.
ASSEMBLY BILL 3072 Assembly member Frank Bigelow, R-Fresno, brought AB 3072 to the Assembly floor on Feb. 20. The proposal makes one simple change to the language of existing law: it changes the pronoun use of “his or her” to “their” – no other substantive changes are proposed. “Existing law prohibits the owner or operator of a licensed commercial passenger fishing vessel from permitting any person to fish from that boat or vessel unless the person has in their possession a valid sport fishing license and any required license stamp, report card, or validation,” the language of AB 3072, which is titled Commercial Passenger Fishing Vessels: Sport Fishing Licenses, stated. Bigelow proposes taking out a portion of existing law that says “has, in his or her possession” and replaces the language with “has in their possession.” “The owner or operator of a boat or vessel licensed pursuant to Section 7920 shall not permit any person to fish from that boat or vessel unless that person has, in his or her possession, has in their possession a valid California sport fishing license and any required stamp, report card, or validation issued pursuant to this code,” the language of AB 3072 stated. AB 3072 might be heard by a committee on March 23; the bill, however, has not been assigned to a committee.

passengers. Milton, who studies the spread of virus particles in the air, said recirculating air on a cruise ship’s ventilation system, along with people living in close quarters and in communal settings, make the vessels vulnerable to the spread of infection. Top cruise line executives met March 7 with Vice President Mike Pence at Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, after which Pence announced “significant changes” to the industry going forward. Pence said cruise officials agreed to enhanced entry and exit screenings and to establish shipboard testing for the virus, along with new quarantine standards established by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The industry also was asked to come up with and fund a new plan on how to transport cruise passengers who contract the disease. Princess officials said the new protocols include asking all new passengers to sign a health declaration, and temperature screenings as passengers leave. Anyone coming from a “high-risk area is also undergoing a medical evaluation,” Dr. Grant Tarling, chief medical officer for Carnival Corporation, told reporters.

of San Diego invite the public to take an online survey to help guide the branding of the Chula Vista bayfront. Feedback from the survey will be used in the development of signage and other materials that will welcome and guide visitors to and around the Chula Vista waterfront on
San Diego Bay. The survey will be available until March 29 and can be completed online at https://bit.ly/38Bjpyw. The city and the Port are transforming 535 acres of largely vacant and underutilized landscape into a recreational, residential and resort destination. When complete, the public will enjoy more than 200 acres of parks and open space, a shoreline promenade, walking trails, RV camping, shopping, dining and more. Through the survey, the City and the Port hope to learn about the public’s preferences for the most important factors to be considered in a future brand, such as memorability, geography and longevity.

PILOT STUDY REPORT ON IN-WATER DRY DOCKING SYSTEMS IN MARINA DEL REY HARBOR RELEASED Los Angeles County Department of Beaches and Harbors tested an in-water dry docking system over the course of a year to get a better understanding of its capabilities, maintenance requirements and ability to serve as a potential alternative to antifouling paints.

By Lindsey Glasgow MARINA DEL REY—Los Angeles County Department of Beaches and Harbors (DBH) recently released a report summarizing a pilot program testing out an in-water dry docking system for its capabilities, maintenance requirements and ability to serve as a potential alternative to antifouling paints. The county has been looking for ways to reduce the amount of dissolved copper in the harbor and in-water dry docking has been identified as one potential method. The harbor is on the state’s 303(d) list of impaired water 20.0 bodies due to several pollutants, including dissolved copper. 15.0 The Marina del Rey Marina Toxic Pollutants 10.0 Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) estimates approximately 94 percent of 5.0 the dissolved copper is coming from passive leaching of antifouling paints, with the other 6 percent coming from boat hull cleaning. The county is hoping to reduce the copper in the harbor’s water column by 85 percent by March 2024. In-water dry docking systems work by separating the hull of the boat from the water without lifting the boat out of the water. These systems consist of a bottom liner that envelops the submerged hull of a boat, a floating frame and a pump to keep the hull dry when docked at the slip. The cost for a FAB Dock, an in-water dry docking manufacturer, ranges from approximately $7,000 to $21,000, depending on boat size. However, custom build models can cost as much as $55,000. A local community group, the Sea Scouts, piloted one of FAB Dock’s in-water dry docking systems between Sept. 2018 and Sept. 2019. The Sea Scouts reported in the recently released “In-Water Dry Docking Systems Pilot Study Report” that the FAB Dock worked well, kept the boat bottom clean, and was easy to use. During the one-year pilot, the bottom of the device was never cleaned, and there was no need to clean the boat bottom while it was kept in the device, according to the pilot study report.

The Sea Scouts did report the FAB Dock was damaged towards the end of the pilot study, but did not disclose what had specifically caused the damage. The bottom of the liner had been punctured, possibly by the boat’s motor, the pilot study report said. At the end of the trial period, the device was pulled out.
The California Department of Pesticide RegulationBlvin 2009 d rson effe studiedW Jthe dissolved copper levels in the MdRH water column and found they are far above the regulatory limit set by the California Toxics Rule of 3.1 micrograms per liter.
“The device was pulled out of the water by two men, without additional support, and without moving the boat out of the slip,” the pilot study report said. Once out of the water, the larger fouling growth - tunicates and mollusks - on the bottom of the FAB Dock was removed by hand. The rest – such as
algae – was sprayed off with a hose. “The manual growth removal and hose rinse was effective, removing about 95% of the fouling,” the pilot study stated. “Organisms came off easily and did not leave any marks on the material.” Photos of the marine growth on the FAB Dock after one year in the water in the harbor as well as more information collected from the pilot program can be found in the pilot study report at bit. ly/37MhoPQ. The county continues to study in-water dry docking systems to assess the product’s maintenance requirements and potential cost savings. DBH purchased two new in-water dry docks for use by private boaters in county-managed Anchorage 47; DBH will assess the devices over a three-year pilot period. The first was installed in June 2019 for a 1991 Beneteau powerboat with 28-foot length, 10-foot beam, and twin stern drives. The FAB Dock was purchased for $12,990 (the lowest cost bid). The second was installed in October 2019. The boater volunteered to participate with a 2006 Safe Boat Defender, 26-foot length, 8-foot beam, with a twin outboard. Only one bid was received, which was from FAB Dock, at a cost of $10,735. “It is the county’s hope that through implementing pilots of these options, other marinas in MdRH might be inspired to follow similar models of offering a dry docking system as an add-on service for slip rentals,” the pilot study report stated.

HUNTINGTON BEACH—The Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has forced a multitude of cancelations and postponement of public events. One of those cancelations: a planned workshop on Poseidon Water’s desalination plant proposal in Huntington Beach.
POSEIDON WORKSHOP
DELAYED BECAUSE OF CORONAVIRUS California Regional Water Quality Control Board meeting set for March 13 in Huntington Beach was canceled.
M
By Parimal M. Rohit
Members of the California Regional Water Quality Control Board were set to have what appeared to be a final public workshop on the proposed Poseidon desalination plant on March 13. The workshop was canceled due to concerns of the coronavirus. “The primary agenda item scheduled for … [the] March 13 … board meeting was a workshop on the renewal process for … [a] permit for the Poseidon Resources, LLC desalination facility in Huntington Beach and does not require immediate board action. This item has generated a great deal of interest and participation by interested parties and the general public, based on previous Regional Board meetings. Given the crowd size anticipated for the meeting site and the evolving COVID-19 situation in the Southern California area, CalEPA and the Santa Ana Regional Water Board have decided to cancel the March 13, 2020 Santa Ana Water Board (Region 8) meeting,” Water Board staff said in a mass email to the press. The March 13 meeting was set to take place at Huntington Beach City Council Chambers. Water Board staff stated the items on the March 13 agenda would “be presented at a future Regional Board meeting.”
The Log reached out to Water Board staff and confirmed the March 13 meeting is off calendar, and the Poseidon workshop could appear on the April 3 agenda. Board members were originally slated to vote on Poseidon Water’s permit renewal, which would have allowed the desalination plant project to move forward, on April 3. It looks like the public hearing and vote would be delayed, however, as the Regional Water Board anticipates having the March 13 workshop rescheduled for April 3. “The April 3rd meeting is still scheduled to be held and the current thought is that the workshop that was scheduled for the March 13th meeting would be held on April 3rd, along with an opportunity for public comment,” Mark Smythe, an environmental program manager with the Water Boards, told The Log in an email. “The State Board and Regional Board managements are exploring scenarios that would provide an equal opportunity for verbal public comment while minimizing ‘close quarters’ congregation of large groups of people,” Smythe continued. “Those procedures may be sufficiently vetted to be implemented for the April 3rd meeting.” A public hearing and vote on Pose-
idon’s permit renewal might be held in late May, Smythe added. “With regards to the public hearing (vote) on Poseidon’s permit renewal, as you might have seen in the agenda package, we received 217 unique comment letters and from those letters have identified [more than] 500 comments. The responses to those comments are currently being worked on by Regional Board staff,” Smythe said. “In order to provide full responses and allow for internal review, the public hearing (vote) will probably be postponed to late May and potentially addressed at an additionally scheduled ‘Special Board Meeting.’” Poseidon Water obtained its first-ever permit for its Huntington Beach desalination plant project in 2006; the permit was renewed in 2012. The 2012 permit renewal, which would have allowed Poseidon to discharge 60.3 million gallons of wastewater daily, was set to expire in February 2017. Several modifications – which the Water Board determined to be material – to the project were proposed since the 2012 permit renewal. The 2012 permit, accordingly, was deemed to be “no longer valid” by the Water Board – setting up the current public process, where Poseidon hopes to gain a renewed permit to allow it to move forward with its desalination plans in Huntington Beach. The proposed desalination plant would be built at the old AES Huntington Beach power plant, located at the intersection of Pacific Coast Highway and Newland Street. Poseidon Water hopes to use the 12-acre plant to produce 50 million gallons of potable water daily. The price tag for the desalination plant is $1 billion. Proponents of the project say the desalination plant is necessary to provide Southern California with water security during cyclical drought seasons. Opponents, on the other hand, say the billion-dollar project would be harmful to low-income ratepayers. Others have argued the proposed desalination plant on the Central Orange County coast is not environmentally friendly. The Log will continue to monitor this story and keep readers updated as to whether the workshop will be held on April 3 or if the coronavirus situation causes another delay in proceedings.

Ocean Cleanup’s Interceptor - a solar powered vessel that collects floating trash – will be deployed in Ballona Creek for a 24-month pilot project.
Trash collecting vessel expected to debut in Ballona Creek this fall Los Angeles County will be testing out a device called Interceptor in a 24-month pilot program in partnership with Ocean Cleanup, a non-government engineering environmental organization based in the Netherlands. By Lindsey Glasgow MARINA DEL REY—Come fall, a section of Ballona Creek in Marina del Rey could have a new solar-powered,
trash eating machine. Los Angeles County entered into an agreement with Ocean Cleanup for the Ballona Creek
Trash Interceptor Project in late 2019 and pending permits, the trash collecting vessel will be deployed in the fall of this year, according to the county’s Department of Public Works (DPW). Ballona Creek is an 8.8-mile-long flood control channel, which drains the 130-square-mile Ballona Creek Watershed and provides flood risk management for approximately 1.5 million residents. The waterway runs parallel to Marina del Rey Harbor and dumps into the Santa Monica Bay. DPW Stormwater Quality staff said floatable debris that flows out of Ballona Creek can loop into the marina as well as end up in Santa Monica Bay and the ocean. Seta Marjanian from the county’s
Department of Public Works (DPW) gave a presentation on the pilot project to the Small Craft Harbor Commission on Feb. 12. “This is a pilot project to test the efficiency of the interceptor in capturing floating plastics and other trash in Ballona Creek,” Marjanian said during the presentation. The Interceptor will remove debris from the watershed using a barrier, which guides waste towards the opening of the vessel. The water flow then moves the debris onto a conveyor belt, which delivers the waste to the shuttle. The shuttle then automatically distributes the debris across six dumpsters on a separate barge. The dumpsters are then brought to land and items trashed or recycled. Marjanian said the DPW could look to the Department of Beach Harbors (DHB) for cranes for trash disposal, facilities for collecting and sorting recycling and as a potential site for assembling and launching the vessel. “The primary focus as far as the partnership goes with any interest with the Small Craft Harbor Commission and DBH is use of DBH’s facility for maintenance purposes and cleanup,” Marjanian said. Implementation of the pilot project is estimated to cost the Flood Control Dis-

trict, the managing agency of Ballona Creek, $1.75 million. Funds will come from the Flood Control District Budget, which is primarily supported by benefit assessment and property taxes. County officials hope it will help clean up both local and global waterways. Ocean Cleanup also hopes it helps them realize their goal of reducing floating ocean plastic by 90 percent by the year 2040. DPW Stormwater Quality staff said it is anticipated the Interceptor will have a monitoring system to track the amount floatable debris that bypasses the vessel and flows into the bay. If the pilot project is deemed successful, the ownership of the Interceptor will be transferred from The Ocean Cleanup to the Flood Control District free of charge, DPW Stormwater Quality staff said. The DPW also has other trash abatement measures in place in Ballona Creek. A trash boom has collected debris for the past 10 years at the Lincoln and Culver Boulevard bridges, about 2-3 miles upstream of the mouth of the creek, serving as “last line of defense” for the urban watershed. During the 2019/2020 storm season (Oct. 15April 15), DPW Stormwater Quality staff reported approximately 34 tons of floatable debris – including vegetation – has been collected from behind the existing boom as of Feb. 25. Marjanian said there are enhancement plans in the works to replace the existing boom with a boom with finer mesh and deeper netting.

Port of Los Angeles seeks proposals for LA Waterfront redevelopment
By Parimal M. Rohit
DBW accepting grant applications for boating safety and abandoned vessels What Happened: California’s Division of Boating and Waterways (DBW) announced it is accepting applications for grant programs on boating safety and abandoned vessels. DBW stated $3.75 million in grant funding would be made available to eligible applicants. Public entities can apply for grant funding through the Boating Safety and Enforcement Equipment (BSEE) and Surrendered and Abandoned Vessel Exchange (SAVE). Those awarded the BSEE grant would be eligible to receive a portion of up to $1 million, while SAVE awardees are vying for a slice of the program’s $2.75 million of available funds What’s On Tap: The application period is open from March 16 to April 16. DBW will host two free workshops to provide applicants with information about the grants and application process. Both workshops will be held at DBW headquarters in Sacramento, April 2. The BSEE workshop will be held from 10 a.m. to noon on April 2; contact Johanna Naughton at 916-327-1826 or johanna.naughton@parks.ca.gov to RSVP. The SAVE workshop begins at 1 p.m.
on April 2 and runs to 3 p.m. Reach out to Ron Kent at 916-327-1825 or ron.kent@ parks.ca.gov to reserve a space. DBW headquarters is located at One Capitol Mall, Suite 500, Sacramento, California 95814. The BSEE and SAVE workshops can be accessed via teleconference; both workshops will also be recorded and made available to anyone unable to attend in person. Award winners should be announced in April, according to DBW. DBW awarded 46 BSEE and SAVE grants in 2019, totaling $3.7 million. BSEE grants, according to DBW, are “available to local government agencies that can demonstrate a need for patrol boats, engines, personal watercraft, search and rescue equipment, and patrol and diving equipment.” The U.S. Coast Guard Recreational Boating Safety Program provides funding for BSEE grants. The SAVE grant program, meanwhile, “is available to local public agencies statewide to receive surrendered vessels and to remove and dispose of derelict vessels on coastal and inland waterways,” DBW staff stated. The $2.75 million available for the SAVE program is available through California’s Abandoned Watercraft Abatement Fund.
What Happened: The Port of Los Angeles released a prospectus on March 3, outlining plans for a redevelopment and adaptive reuse opportunity at “Warehouse No. 1.” The building, which is one of the most recognizable structures on port district land, would be converted into a commercial and visitor-serving facility. Included in the prospectus: the Request for Information and Request for Proposals. Warehouse No. 1, at six stories tall and 460,000 square feet in space, is often the first building seen whenever boaters and cargo ships enter the L.A. Harbor. It was built in 1917 and was the port district’s only bonded warehouse. What’s On Tap: The building is being positioned as an ideal location for commercial and visitor-serving purposes. Warehouse No. 1 is adjacent to AltaSea and close to Cabrillo Way Marina. Port district officials are also touting Warehouse No. 1 for its close proximity to San Pedro Public Market, a $150 million redevelopment project scheduled to be online in 2021. San Pedro Public Market is the centerpiece of the LA Waterfront project, which aims to repurpose the San Pedro and Wilmington as a visitor-serving destination. The winning bidder would have an opportunity to enter into a public-private partnership to repurpose the large building.

A LOG SATIRE
Port of San Diego contemplates exchanging marinas for cruise ports At least one marina in San Diego Bay could be removed in order to allow for more cruise ships to dock at America’s Finest City. Virgin Voyages is in talks with port district. By Parimal M. Rohit SAN DIEGO—The plight of small boat owners to have a place to dock has reached new heights, as the Port of San Diego is considering a new policy to accommodate the largest vessels of them all: cruise ships. Port district officials are drafting a policy where at least one marina on the local harbor would be removed in order to make way for a new cruise ship dock, sources familiar with the situation but unauthorized to speak on the record told The Log. The only question right now, according to sources, is whether any of the marinas have enough depth to accommodate at least two cruise ships at a time. It is unclear which marina would be targeted – let alone whether the port district’s policy idea ever makes it out of the idea stage. Details about the policy proposal are scarce at this time, but some information was shared with The Log in early March. The new port terminal, if built, would be in close proximity to Downtown San Diego or the city’s international airport. At least two cruise ships must be able to dock simultaneously at the new terminal, should it be built. Port district staff is apparently in discussions with Richard Branson’s Virgin brand. Branson has floated the idea of introducing his Virgin Voyages cruise line in San Diego. Virgin Voyages has been branded as “Adult Cruising” and, as part of its inaugural year on the water, will be taking passengers to and from the Caribbean aboard Scarlet Lady. Whether or not Virgin Voyages – or any other cruise line – would add new destinations out of San Diego might take years to realize, however. The port district must first engage with the public and local

stakeholders about the plan to add two large vessels to San Diego’s cruise ship capacity. Then there is the California Coastal Commission to reckon with: will the strict state agency be on board with allowing at least two new cruise lines coming in and out of San Diego Bay – in addition to the lines already in town? Also tempering discussions right now: Coronavirus. The COVID-19 pandemic is already hurting the cruise industry. Branson and others have been working to accommodate current reservations threatened by the spread of Coronavirus, both in the United States and abroad. Expanding operations in San Diego, in light of the pandemic, might have slowed talks about the new cruise terminal. (The Log, however, has not been able to confirm whether this is indeed the case.) Hasan Minhaj of Netflix’s “The Patriot Act” already hosted an exposé episode on the ills of the cruise industry. Would the Port of San Diego’s pursuit of Virgin Voyages and other cruise lines inspire Minhaj to do a follow-up episode in America’s Finest City? No one has formally went on the record with The Log with this story, but at least three sources familiar with the port district’s plans spoke to us under the condition of anonymity and said the new cruise terminal is being pursued to help raise funds for a new NFL stadium in Downtown San Diego. San Diego Bay already has a terminal to accommodate two cruise ships. The following cruise lines berth at the Downtown San Diego terminal: Carnival, Celebrity, Crystal, Disney, Holland America, Norwegian and Princess. Cruise destinations to and from San Diego include Hawai’i and the South Pacific, Mexican Riviera and points south, and the Panama Canal.

New parking system installed at Dana Point Harbor Boater lots have new machines installed at entrance and exit. Slip tenants are exempt from paying for parking, but who will be on the hook for going in and out of the lots? By Parimal M. Rohit DANA POINT—A new parking management system has apparently been installed at Dana Point Harbor, and the local boaters association is trying to answer the $64,000 question: who would be paying to go in and out of the lot? Dana Point Harbor Partners, the private entity tasked with revitalizing the dilapidated boating venue in South Orange County, installed the new system to manage unauthorized or abusive parking habits. A recent Dana Point Boaters Association e-newsletter stated the new parking control system aimed to prevent “unauthorized use of boater parking and maximize space for legitimate slip tenants.” Representatives from Dana Point Boaters Association said they pushed for a parking system where boaters could access the water for free, but “interlopers” were kept away. Slip tenants and their families are exempt from paying parking fees while visiting these lots, according to the Dana Point Boaters Association e-newsletter. The new parking system, however, has Dana Point Boaters Association asking who will have to pay for going in and out of the lots. “These new machines sure look like they issue tickets and accept credit cards, suggesting that someone will be paying for parking. But who,” the e-newsletter authors stated and asked. “We are assured that Dana Point Harbor slip tenants … and their immediate families will never pay for parking. We will be issued up to four transpon-

ate harbor tours and 6-pack charters. Larkin said they are also looking at developing a permitting process to assist homeowners trying to make repairs to a dock or seawall. Like many other Southern California harbors, water quality and debris is a concern. The Commission met last year with the Orange County Water District and expressed an interest in efforts to prevent the flow of debris from the area’s watershed. Larkin said they are also working to simplify the path of where residents look for assistance. He said with the involvement of multiple jurisdictions and agen-
ders that will be adhered to our vehicles and will automatically let us in and out of boater parking. But what about everyone else? Our friends and extended family? Boat mechanics and washers?“ Dana Point Harbor Partners is expected to distribute details about the new parking management system soon, according to the boaters association’s e-newsletter. Details of those plans, whenever they are announced, will certainly be covered by The Log. The boaters association, however, made it quite clear it would fight to protect “the boater experience” and block the imposition of fees or costs on slip tenants to help pay for parking. “There is no indication so far that marina management plans to charge our guests to park. Nonetheless, we have preemptively made our position clear to Dana Point Harbor Partners that we will strongly oppose any parking management plan that results in our invited guests paying for parking,” the e-newsletter’s authors wrote. “Additionally, any new fees charged to those that service our boats (mechanics, washers and so on) should not be so exorbitant to cause undue charges passed along to boaters. “In a nutshell, the new parking management plan must not impose new costs on the boater experience,” the e-newsletter’s authors continued. Parking is still free, for now, according to Dana Point Boaters Association. The parking management plan could be implemented as soon as April. The parking control system has been installed but its arms, which keep people from going in and out at the entrance/ exit, will remain open until the plan is fully implemented. Details of the parking management system at Dana Point Harbor will be reported on as soon as the information becomes available. Installation of the new parking management system, according to Dana Point Boaters Association, was implemented to “protect boater parking from interlopers and others that have no business in our recreational marina parking.”
cies, there has always been a little confusion of who’s responsible for what or where to go. He said the Commission is planning harbor-halls and meet the commissioner events this year to help engage the community. Going forward, Schauppner said the commission is looking to see some of these safety protocols and permitting process recommendations getting implemented this year, as well as having a proactive role in identifying needs of the harbor before they become challenges. “We’re a neighborhood with streets and waterways so what are the unique challenges and what is it that the city should be doing or not doing in order to address these challenges?” Schauppner said.

By Lindsey Glasgow AVALON—Following the March 3 election, the Avalon City Council is full for the first time in more than six months. Avalon voters elected a mayor and three council members in the recent election. According to preliminary numbers from the Los Angeles County Registrar Recorder/County Clerk website, current Mayor Anni Marshall claimed a re-election victory, receiving 58.49 percent of the votes. Her contender, Steven Hoefs, received 41.51percent. Marshall has served as Avalon’s mayor for the past six years. “I am so happy the majority of Avalon voters demonstrated their confidence in me as their mayor once again,” Marshall
said in an email. “I appreciate their support as the City Council works on many important issues going forward. I welcome those newly elected. I know with ongoing open communication and cooperation much will be accomplished.” In the City Council race, two fouryear seats were up for grabs. The seats were held by Oley Olsen, who ran for re-election and Pam Albers, who died suddenly in May 2019. In June 2019, Hoefs was selected by the Council to fill Albers’ seat until the end of the term; Hoefs ran against Albers in the 2018 election, losing by just 16 votes. By the time this paper went to print, Lisa Lavelle led the City Council race with 26.04 percent of the vote, followed by Yesenia Sarahi De La Rosa with 22.05 percent, according to preliminary numbers. Olsen trailed closely behind De La Rosa with 21.63 percent. Yolanda “Yoli” Montano received 15.67 percent and Joe Sampson received 14.60 percent. “I’m ecstatic with what the results are showing currently and hope that the trend continues,” Lavelle said in an email.

LISA LAVELLE Lavelle and De La Rosa would be first-time Avalon City Council members. Lavelle grew up in Avalon and is currently on the Board of Directors for Catalina Island Chamber of Commerce & Visitors Bureau and previously served a term and a half on the Planning Commission. De La Rosa was also raised in Avalon by what she described as hard-working, immigrant parents. She went on to attend San Diego Mesa College before returning to Catalina to work. Olsen has served on the council for eight years. He is retired and worked for the Catalina Island Company for 35 years and owned several businesses. A special election was also held to fill the seat of former council member Richard Hernandez, who resigned in July 2019. He did not provide a reason for his resignation and did not return multiple requests from The Log for a comment on his departure. After several, somewhat heated discussions, the City Council in September voted to hold a special election to fill the seat. The special election seat, with a term
City Council approves rezoning for Huntington Harbour waterfront property The re-zoning allows for low density housing to be built in the open space located at 16926 Park Avenue, should the California Coastal Commission also approve. By Lindsey Glasgow HUNGTINGTON BEACH—The Huntington Beach City Council gave the green light to re-zoning a vacant property on the city’s harbor waterfront at the end of Park Avenue to low density housing. At their March 2 meeting, coun-
cil members approved a zoning map amendment to change the zoning on a 6,179-square-foot parcel at 16926 Park Avenue from water recreation to residential low density. The site is currently vacant with two attempts to bring a public marina to the property both failing. In July 2017, the Huntington Beach Planning Commission denied a request from the property owner to construct a boat marina with a community dock, a two-story building with a 508-square-foot marina office and public restroom on the first floor, a one-bedroom 565-square-foot caretaker’s unit on the second floor, and a detached 441-square-foot two-car garage on the subject site. The applicant appealed the Planning Commission’s action. In 2018 the property owner and the city entered into a

settlement agreement, with Huntington Beach agreeing to process the proposed requests for a rezone from water recreation – marina – to residential at a reduced fee. In exchange, the property owner agreed to withdraw the marina project and the appeal. The new zoning allows for a single family dwelling with city approval of a coastal development permit. However, no development has yet been proposed. Comments submitted from the California Coastal Commission in August 2019 included concerns of exposure of the site to flood and erosion hazards. The comments also stated means for offsetting the loss of public access to harbor waters would need to be included in the Local Coastal Program Amendment. In regards to that issue, city staff

wrote in Local Coastal Program Amendment (LCPA) No. 19-001: “The vacant subject site currently does not provide a formal opportunity for public coastal access and will continue to lack public coastal access while undeveloped. Future residential development on the subject site that will be more compatible with the surrounding residential area could only occur if the LCPA were certified.” In response to the agenda item, the City Council received two emails. One of which expressed the opinion taking the marina off the table was a positive step but questioned whether a residential development could get Coastal Commission approval. The other expressed concern about any kind of development on the lot, stating the property is prone to flooding. That email also stated the narrow road is almost impossible to exit as-is – an issue the writer believed would be aggravated by more vehicle traffic.

The full-day, familyfriendly festival features was set to feature open houses aboard boats, fishing seminars, more than 200 exhibits, live entertainment and more. By Lindsey Glasgow SAN DIEGO—An annual event that signifies the start of San Diego’s spring saltwater fishing season has been canceled due to the Corona Virus. A time honored tradition, the annual Day at the Docks celebration was set for Sunday, April 19 at San Diego’s Sportfishing Landings in Point Loma. On March 16, the San Diego Sportfishing Council released a statement on Facebook saying they were actively looking at another date for this year, possibly in early summer. “The CDC announced that all gatherings of over 50 people planned for the next 8 weeks should be cancelled or postponed. The Port of San Diego’ Day At The Docks 2020 was within that timeframe. In accordance with the CDC guidelines we have postponed Day At The Docks 2020,” the statement read. The statement also said to be able to reschedule, many things must come together. An email sent to The Log on March 17 from San Diego Sportfishing Council Special Event Coordinator Peggy Couvrette stated after a comprehensive discussion, weighing the costs and benefits of finding an alternate date, the board concluded holding the event later this year was not a viable option.
“The outlook is very good for a strong spring and early summer fishing season,” Courvette said in the email. “The dates we considered to be far enough in the future to be outside the present COVID-19 restricted time frame, would place the event in conflict with on-going sportfishing activity. And of course, sportfishing activity is what we support and promote.” The festival opens the San Diego fleet – the largest assembled sportfishing fleet in the world – to the public. The fleet includes 70 large vessels and dozens of 6-pack charters. The festival gives visitors the opportunity to walk aboard and tour boats in the fleet, talk with the captains and crews, ride on boats, explore the latest in fishing tackle and techniques and participate in many other activities going on. “People look forward to this event it’s a tradition,” Event Director Catherine Miller said. It was also set to feature fishing and boating “how-to” seminars; exhibits from more than 200 fishing tackle and boat manufacturers and community groups; a kids’ fishing adventure area; casting and knot tying contests; cooking demos; music and entertainment; drawings for thousands of dollars in prizes; marine art, clothing and accessories vendors; and, boat rides around San Diego Bay for $3 per person. Vendors and exhibitors who signed up for the 2020 event will be refunded. “We are all very hopeful that this current health crisis is resolved soon and with the least harm to our community, the industry and our customers,” Couvrette said in the email. “We are planning 2021 Port of San Diego’s Day At The Docks on Sunday, April 18th, 2021. Please save the date.”

Sailing Cal Maritime claims another Harbor Cup victory The public nautical institution wins the collegiate regatta for a seventh time. By Parimal M. Rohit SAN PEDRO—California Maritime Academy celebrated its seventh Harbor Cup win during the first full weekend of March 2020, as the Keelhaulers edged out UC Santa Barbara and defending champion College of Charleston for the victory. Each day of racing ended with a new leaderboard, but Cal Maritime was able to win the Harbor Cup with top billing on Day 1 and two third place finishes thereafter. Penn State, who competed in this year’s Harbor Cup with minimal to no keelboat or gybing experience, finished in ninth place but won the regatta’s Spirit Award. Four of the 10 teams competing in the Harbor Cup were helmed by women (either part-time or full-time). The Harbor Cup first launched in 2008 and has continued each year since as a 10-team invitational regatta, pitting college sailing teams against each other at the L.A. Harbor. Cal Maritime is the regatta’s partner. Competing in this year’s regatta were Cal Maritime, UC Santa Barbara, College of Charleston, U.S. Merchant Marine Academy, Eckerd College, U.S. Coast Guard Academy, U.S. Naval Academy, Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, University of Hawai’i and Penn State. Each year’s winner is awarded the Port of Los Angeles Harbor Cup Trophy, which, according to race organizers, represents sportsmanship, fairness, courtesy, grace in victory or defeat, environmental awareness, stewardship and love of the ocean.
Cal Maritime won its seventh Harbor Cup, defeating UC Santa Barbara, College of Charleston and seven other schools at the invitational regatta, which took place March 6-8 at the Port of Los Angeles in San Pedro. This year’s Harbor Cup also featured a Penn State team with minimal to no keelboat or gybing experience. Also competing in the regatta were U.S. Merchant Marine Academy, Eckerd College, U.S. Coast Guard Academy, U.S. Naval Academy, Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and University of Hawai’i.

versity, Northridge shared giant sea bass eggs with Aquarium of the Pacific and Cabrillo Marine Aquarium last summer, as part of an attempt to produce offspring for the species. Staff with Aquarium of the Pacific and Cabrillo Marine Aquarium reared the baby giant sea bass babies, setting the tone for eventual release. “The young fish will all be released into the wild with approval from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife,” Aquarium of the Pacific staff said in a released statement. “Divers from both aquariums will release several hundred fish into the ocean at a time on two trips, the first of which has already been completed. The release location will be kept confidential among the project partners, allowing the young fish to acclimate to their new home.” Aquarium of the Pacific staff added giant sea bass are “notoriously difficult to breed in an aquarium setting.”
“The Aquarium of the Pacific was the first public aquarium to successfully hatch and raise a baby giant sea bass in 2016. That fish, named Yutaka, is now on view in the Aquarium’s Amber Forest exhibit near its parents, which have lived in the Aquarium’s Honda Blue Cavern exhibit since its opening in 1998,” aquarium staff stated. “After this initial success, the Aquarium of the Pacific’s husbandry staff planned a regional meeting to gather aquarium professionals and local researchers who had been working with giant sea bass, and multiple partnerships were formed between universities, aquariums, and government agencies.” Anyone spotting giant sea bass in the ocean is encouraged to take a photo and submit it to researchers at UC Santa Barbara.

The department oversees more than one million acres of public lands within the state of California. “These lands include Wildlife Areas and Ecological Reserves that provide an opportunity to recreate and explore the rich diversity of fish, wildlife and habitats
that California has to offer,” department staff said. “CDFW recommends that all visitors follow guidance for social distancing (of at least 6 feet) when visiting our public lands. To explore the outdoor opportunities on CDFW public lands, please visit wildlife.ca.gov/Lands.” Department staff urged anglers, boaters, hungers and other outdoors enthusiasts to stay in touch with local public health agencies and follow any suggestions they broadcast as the COVID-19 situation evolves.

A representative from California Sportfishing League (CSL) said the R3 (Recruitment, Retention and Reactivation) strategy would open the door for state leaders to finally implement a 365day fishing license in California. “California anglers could not be more pleased that the Department of Fish and Wildlife has unveiled an R3 Plan that recommends a 365-day fishing license,” CSL Executive Director Marko Mlikotin said. “This achievement sends a strong signal to the California state legislature that there is a real plan to reform the state’s antiquated and costly licensing program, and this was accomplished with the hard work of many fine hunting and angler organizations. Finally, there is a real plan to make the great outdoors even more accessible to future generations of Californians.” Anglers in California have been limited to buying a calendar-based fishing license, which expires on Dec. 31 every year (regardless of when the license was purchased). Mlikotin, in a released statement, added the CDFW strategy, which he said recognizes California’s “costly and antiquated [fishing] license program,” would likely bolster the passage of Assembly Bill 1387 (AB 1387).

It’s a White(fish) Winter AB 1387, which was proposed by Assembly member Jim Wood (D-Santa Rosa), advances several CDFW fishing recommendations. “As an organization involved in developing the plan, the California Sportfishing League (CSL) is pleased with the department’s recognition that the state’s costly and antiquated license program needs to be overhauled and a 365-day fishing license with auto-renewal features is part of the solution,” an official statement released by CSL said.
CDFW, through the R3 strategy, proposed shifting the responsibility of setting license fees and structure away from state legislators to the California Fish and Game Commission. “This move could improve license marketing and rational price setting, which will increase fishing license sales. Today, license fees are determined by the legislature and a cost-of-living formula that increases prices nearly every year without any consideration to market conditions,” CSL’s official statement
OXNARD—Whitefish was the catch of the day for seven boats and 161 anglers who fished the waters outside of Ventura County at the end of the second full week of March. The total fish count for March 15 at Channel Islands Sportfishing Co. in Oxnard was 370 whitefish (including the one pictured), 1,481 rockfish, 31 lingcod, 30 bonito, 19 sheephead, eight sculpin, one cabezon and one rock sole. “Fishing was solid again for bottom species with more Bonita in the mix. What you don’t see in the count are the several Calico Bass that were caught and released,” CISCO staff stated in the Facebook post about the fishing on March 15. “No rain today, in fact some sunshine trickled down upon the anglers.” We’ll see whether fishing continues out of Southern California landings as the Coronavirus situation plays out.
on the R3 strategy said. “As a consequence, California’s sport fishing license remains among the costliest in the country with permits. Since 1986, the price of California’s resident annual fishing license has increased 216 percent, which is 41 percent greater than the rate of inflation. Today, the annual license costs 110 percent over the national average.” Fourteen states have implemented a 365-day fishing license, according to CSL.
SD FISH REPORT BIG BLUEFIN TUNA PROVIDING LATE-WINTER FISHING ACTION By Bob Vanian
SAN DIEGO—The spring fishing season is upon us and the good news is that offshore anglers have bluefin tuna to target in areas that are as close to San Diego as the 9 Mile Bank. That said, the best of the bluefin fishing is being found at a further distance from Point Loma for boats fishing 1.5- to 2-day trips to the waters outside of Punta Colnett. The bluefin fishing outside of Punta Colnett was good last weekend and the catches coming from the area included a good number of 100 to 170 pound fish and ranged in size from 20 to 170 pounds. Some count’s from the weekend’s fishing start with Fisherman’s Landing that reports that Pacific Queen fished a Saturday 1.5-day trip with 32 anglers who caught 47 bluefin tuna. Fifteen of their bluefin were reported to be in the 120to 170-pound range and the rest of the bluefin were reported to be in the 20- to 70-pound range. Fisherman’s Landing also reports that Tomahawk returned from a weekend two-day trip with 18 anglers having caught 36 bluefin tuna and 10 yellowtail. The bluefin aboard Tomahawk ranged in size from 30 to 170 pounds. Eleven of their bluefin ranged from 150 to 170 pounds, 8 of their bluefin were between See REPORT page 26

MEXICO CITY—The Mexican legislature spent portions of 2019 and 2020 considering a proposal to amend its federal fishing laws to allow for commercial catches of Dorado (mahi mahi). Mexico’s “General Law of Sustainable Fisheries and Aquaculture” currently limits Dorado catches to recreational fishing trips. The potential opening of the Dorado fishery to commercial interests, however, is stressing out recreational fishing interests in Baja California Sur.

100 and 140 pounds and the rest were in the 30- to 70-pound range. H&M Landing reports having Old Glory fishing a 1.5-day trip with 16 anglers who caught 9 bluefin tuna and 6 yellowtail. The bluefin aboard Old Glory ranged in size from 100 to 132 pounds. H&M Landing also reports Poseidon fished a 1.75-day trip with 16 anglers who caught 13 bluefin, ranging in size from 50 to 110 pounds. The first weekend of March also saw a lot of private boaters out looking for bluefin in local offshore waters within 30 miles of Point Loma. The weekend’s fishing in this local zone saw some scattered bluefin tuna activity being reported by boats fishing the Coronado Canyon, the upper end of the 9 Mile Bank and the deep water inside of the 302 Spot. The showings of bluefin were mostly situations where the fish were up and down quickly and hard to get to before they would sound. fishing around Los Coronado Islands The remains good for reds, rockfish and an occasional lingcod. The surface fishing has generally been slow, but there has been an occasional flurry of bonito or yellowtail action. Good news about the surface fishing is there was improved yellowtail action to report from the most recent trip on Liberty out of Fisherman’s Landing. The fish count on Liberty was 18 anglers catching 9 yellowtail, 40 reds and 100 rockfish.

Sources in Cabo San Lucas and La Paz reached out to The Log and FishRap in January and February, off the record, to express their concern of the amendment proposal that had been circulating in Mexico City, which is the Mexican capital. Article 68 of the General Law of Sustainable Fisheries and Aquaculture states: “The species called marlin, sailfish, swordfish, shad or chiro, rooster and goldfish, in all their biological varieties, are exclusively destined for sport-recreational fishing, within a range of fifty nautical miles, counted from the baseline from which the territorial sea is measured.” The Log and FishRap is reaching out to sources in Mexico to determine the most up-to-date status of the proposal. A recent post on Facebook by a sportfishing association, however, indicated the move to update the General Law of Sustainable Fisheries and Aquaculture to allow commercial fishing of Dorado might have been stopped.

has been to fish with yo-yoed iron. The yellowtail fishing has been difficult for most private boaters as most of the yellowtail action has been originating from stopping on sonar marks found with scanning sonar. The difficulty for most private boaters: most private boats are equipped with traditional up and down style fathometers and are not equipped with scanning sonar. for an assortment of bottom The fishing fish remains good around Los Coronado Islands. In addition to the Rockpile, productive areas for the bottom fishing include hard bottom areas to the north, northeast and northwest of North Island while working in 25 to 55 fathoms of water. Also productive has been fishing the lower end of the 9 Mile Bank while keeping on the Mexico side of the border and fishing in the 60 to 80 fathom depths. Another productive rockfish zone around the Coronado Islands has been fishing spots along the South Kelp Ridge below South Island in the 20 to 40 fathom depths. fishing areas along the San Diego BoatsCounty coast have been finding good mixed bag fishing for reds, rockfish, bass, sculpin and whitefish and are also catching an occasional halibut. The surface fishing has been scratchy but there have been occasional showings of yellowtail off La Jolla, around The 270 (to the west of Mission Bay), in the region of the Whistler Buoy at Point Loma and outside of the Imperial Beach Pipeline. spring season is here and I pray you The stay healthy and hope you can get out on the water and get in on the spring time fishing.

STATE PARKS ANALYZES EFFECTIVENESS OF BOATER MARKETING Surveys try to determine whether campaigns are reaching boaters and influencing their behaviors. By Parimal M. Rohit SACRAMENTO—California State Parks, and its Division of Boating and Waterways, hopes its marketing campaign to boaters is altering their behavior for the better. The marketing campaigns have been urging boaters to use life jackets, engage in clean vessel practices and obtain their California Boater Card. Jolene King, a member State Parks’ marketing department said her team conducted a series of surveys to determine whether boaters were engaged and influenced by the agency’s advertisements. Responses were collected each year since 2016, according to a presentation King made at the Feb. 14 Boating and Waterways Commission meeting in Sacramento. What did boaters learn from the campaign? Were there any behavioral changes? These were the questions State Parks hoped to answer in its research. The marketing campaign targeted power boaters (60 percent), paddlers (20 percent) and anglers (20 percent). King also talked to commissioners about the department’s life jacket awareness campaign, which has been in play for at least 14 years. “We know life jackets are the number one way we can reduce boating deaths on the water,” King told commissioners. Boaters were asked whether they saw or heard of any advertising on boating safety or life jackets within a six-month stretch for 2016, 2017, 2019 and 2019. The department’s clean vessel program caters to power boaters. King says the campaign, similar to the life jacket program, reached more than half of the target audience for each year since 2016. Survey results specifically showed 52 percent of respondents saw or heard of a boating safety or life jacket campaign, when asked in 2016. Positive replies increased in 2017 (58 percent) and 2018 (61 percent), before dipping to 57 percent in 2019. Did the department’s advertisements on personal flotation devices (PFDs) influence boaters to actually wear life jackets? The responses to this question were also positive, with 86 percent of responders saying they were influenced to wear life jackets by State Parks advertising in 2016. The positive responses jumped to 91 percent in 2017 before dipping to 86 percent “yes” in 2018 and 84 percent in 2019. State Parks staff analyzed the responses a little more closely for 2019; 86 percent of power boaters, according to the 2019 survey, said the depart-
ment’s advertising influenced them to wear a life jacket. Only 80 percent of paddlers, according to the 2019 survey, confirmed the state’s advertising influence them to wear a PFD. Department staff also asked if
power boaters saw advertising campaigns on the state’s app promoting pumpout stations. Boaters were specifically asked: “Do these ads influence you to not dump sewage into the water?” Nearly 90 percent of boaters asked this question said they did see such marketing in 2016, 2017 and 2018. The number of boaters who saw the department’s campaigning on pumpouts dipped to 80 percent in 2019. At least 54 percent of survey respondents, in 2016, said they recalled hearing or seeing a “keep California waterways clean” advertisement within the previous six months. The “yes” responses to the same question jumped to 63 percent in 2017 and held there in 2018.
The 2019 survey revealed 59 percent of respondents saw or heard a “keep California waterways clean” advertisement within the previous six months. King said the drop off in positive responses in the 2019 surveys for life jacket and clean vessel awareness were due to the department’s budget cuts. She added 81 percent of BoatCalifornia.com visitors landed on the website via their cellphones. The Boat California mobile app, meanwhile, has about 17,800 total downloads, according to King. The commission, in a separate action, re-elected Virginia Madueño as chair. Katherine Pettibone was elected as vice-chair; she succeeded Doug Metz.
