California Coastal Commission will allow work to be done on section of aging infrastructure in Ventura County. By Parimal M. Rohit
LOS ANGELES—A stretch of aging riprap in the heart of Channel Island Harbor will finally have some new life, as the California Coastal Commission approved a request to replace revetment in an area commonly used by recreational boaters. Ventura County’s Harbor Department, whose request was approved by commissioners on March 7, is looking to replace 1,540 linear feet of rock revetment within Channel Islands Harbor. The revetment is located at the southern end of the Channel Islands Harbor peninsula and was built, but the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, in the 1960s as part of the man-made formation of the harbor, according to Coastal Commission staff. Coastal Commission staff stated the revetment must be repaired and updated to protect the inner peninsula from further degradation. The revetment has been deteriorating due to wave and tidal action, among other reasons. “As a result of the wave and tidal
action of the harbor waters, in addition to the natural settling of the rock rip rap and underlying earthen material, the rock rip rap has sloughed in areas throughout the revetment leading to erosion and loss of stability,” Coastal Commission staff stated. “The proposed repairs are necessary to restore the structural integrity of the revetment so that it can properly protect the inner harbor peninsula and associated coastal-dependent development in the area of Peninsula Road.” Repairing and replacing the revetment will coincide with two development projects: the construction of a new waterfront hotel and slip replacement. Updating the revetment during these two projects would allow the harbor to remain open to boaters and visitors, according to Channel Islands Harbor Director Mark Sandoval. “With tidal surge, with storm surge and regular wave action, essentially we’re at a point where we’ve got to replace or do major repairs on virtually all the revetment in the harbor,” Sandoval told commissioners. The project will take about six months to complete and “be located within the footprint of the existing revetment and will not encroach any further seaward,” according to Coastal Commission staff. Ventura County’s Harbor Department must provide a tree replacement planting plan as part

of its infrastructure project, Coastal Commission staff added. Coastal Commission staff, in their report to commissioners, stated the inner harbor peninsula, where the revetment would be repaired and replaced, is vital infrastructure to recreational boaters and local businesses. Sloughing of the riprap, Coastal Commission staff continued, has been harmful to boaters and negatively affected the local shoreline. “The inner harbor peninsula that the revetment protects supports a recreational boating marina and visitor serving and public access uses such as a hotel, public parking, and
waterfront public promenade. Over the course of five decades following construction of the revetment, the wave and tidal action of harbor waters, as well as settling of the rock revetment and the underlying earthen material, has resulted in sloughing of the rock revetment and erosion in some areas. This shifting of the rock revetment and erosion has reduced the stability and shoreline protection afforded by the revetment. “In addition, the sloughing has impaired the use of recreational boat slips at the adjacent Peninsula Yacht Marina,” Coastal Commission staff continued.

Although the horizontal arc of visibility is the same for all lights, the vertical divergence (i.e. vertical arc of visibility) requirements for lights on vessels under sail are larger to accommodate greater heeling. Navigation lights that claim compliance with the navigation rules may meet the vertical visibility requirements for a power driven vessel; however, they may not comply with the vertical visibility standards for sailing vessels. Manufacturer labeling may not indicate that the lights are designed for use on power-driven vessels only. Annex I (COLREGs section 10 and Inland 33 C.F.R. part 84.16 “Vertical sectors”) prescribes
the degrees and intensities that navigation lights must meet on the vertical plane. Many boat owners may not be aware of the +/- 25-degree vertical light divergence requirement for sailing vessels, a 17.5-degree increase from the power-driven vessel standard. The Coast Guard strongly recommends that boaters avoid purchase and installation of any light that does not present the required certification data and that retailers advise their customers to purchase certified navigation lights. Installing a navigation light, designed for use on a power driven vessel, on a sailing vessel may result in the light losing

Wall of Death: Will Feds challenge use of international driftnets? Senators and representatives have been proposing bills on controversial fishing practice in recent years, but is the United States standing tough on the global stage? By Parimal M. Rohit
NATIONWIDE—Labeling anything as a “Wall of Death” is certain to capture the attention of, well, anyone who is paying attention to whatever is being labeled as a Wall of Death. In this instance the Wall of Death is a drift gillnet, also known as a driftnet. Most people reading The Log are familiar with driftnets. For those who don’t know: Driftnets are long nets, sometimes miles in length, placed along the ocean floor for the purpose of catching fish. Driftnets, which can also be referred to as
gillnets, have come under attack in recent years, however, because of their collateral damages: innocent fish species not targeted by the mileslong net are often captured as bycatch. Federal agencies such as the National Oceanic and Administrative Administration, or NOAA, have been reviewing proposals to keep certain seafood imports out of the United States because they were caught with driftnets – and placed other species in danger of being endangered or extinct (such as the vaquita in Mexico or Māui dolphin in New Zealand). Environmental groups, meanwhile, have taken the Trump Administration to court and accused the President and the departments he oversees of failing to properly enforce the Marine Mammal Protection Act in the Sea of Cortez. Vaquitas there have virtually disappeared, mostly because hundreds of them died after being caught into driftnets. (The driftnets were See STANDING WATCH page 10
FAST FACTS
America’s Cup 1886: Mayflower versus Galatea By Parimal M. Rohit
NEW YORK—The sixth running of America’s Cup pitted the Scots against the Americans, as Galatea tried to take the Auld Mug trophy away from Mayflower in the final days of 1886’s summer. Mayflower ultimately defended the America’s Cup trophy on Sept. 7, 1886, keeping the prestigious prize within the halls of New York Yacht Club. A report on the race’s finish in the Sept. 8, 1886 issue of the New York Times described what, for a while, appeared to be a tense race between Mayflower and Galatea. “There was one moment when the result seemed doubtful – at the start,” the New York Times article stated.“The Boston sloop has shaken her job topsail out of stops on the slender rope that connects bowsprit end with the end of topmast, and was pointing well up the south wind that came at last fresh from the Atlantic straight up the Narrows. “The Galatea was on the Staten side of her, as they both headed to Long Island with the sails to port the English boat point more off the wind in order to pass the starting boat and cross the line,” the New York Times article continued.“This gave her tremendous headway, and she appeared to outpace the Mayflower, daring nearer, the sight was
enough to make the veriest landlubber rejoice.” Momentum appeared to be in favor of Galatea – and then things went awry. “After both passed the line, and passed it so close together that a marlinspike might have been tossed from deck to deck, Galatea appeared also to output Mayflower by as much sash had been outpacing her,” the New York Times article explained to its readers.“But this excitement lasted hardly 10 minutes. Then the tepidity of certain failure of Galatea descended upon the fleet, and the only question that stirred the languor of yachtsmen was the amount of beating she would get.” Galatea’s loss to Mayflower was on the back end a day when many questioned whether a race would take place. Weather conditions on the final day of racing were far from ideal, according to the New York Times. “The morning opened sullen and thick, in this unlike the day before, which was misty and moist, the fog was lifeless and hot,” the article stated at the outset.“The fog was British, but the heat was American, and most people felt that it was uncertain whether we had an earthquake, but most sure that we would get no race.” Racing, however, would occur, and Mayflower went on to defeat Galatea to keep the America’s Cup in the United States that year.

Nonprofit seeks assistance, as part of cost-sharing agreement, from Los Angeles Harbor Department in advance of planned waterside improvements. By Parimal M. Rohit
SAN PEDRO—AltaSea’s plans to seek federal permits and move forward with waterside improvements will include a provision to share certain costs with the Port of L.A., as the Los Angeles Harbor Commission approved a new reimbursement agreement with the nonprofit, March 7. The reimbursement agreement would allow for the city of Los Angeles to be reimbursed for costs associated with future environmental analyses of AltaSea’s upcoming projects. AltaSea would compensate the Port of L.A. with 100 percent of costs associated with environmental analyses attached to the nonprofit’s future project; the reimbursement agreement is in effect for three years. Port district staff, in a report to commissioners, stated the approved agreement “will require AltaSea to reimburse the Harbor Department 100 percent for all staff, [U.S. Army Corps of Engineers] oversight, project fees and consultant costs to prepare the environmental document(s) of AltaSea’s proposed modified project. “The exact cost has not yet been determined because the scope of the various project elements are not finalized,” port district staff continued in a report to commissioners. Port district staff added the Harbor Department would be reimbursed for assessing project elements under the California Environmental Quality Act and National Environmental Policy Act. Harbor Department staff will bill AltaSea monthly to collect payments on any environmental assessments performed. Both parties agreed to cost-sharing terms a few years ago, but that agreement expired in February 2018. “The reimbursement agreement was not immediately renewed because there were no project development requests pending,” port district staff stated in a report to commissioners. “AltaSea has now requested assistance from the Harbor Department on various waterside improvements as well as assistance with permitting through the United States Army Corps of Engineers … and the Regional Water Quality Control Board.” A copy of the cost-sharing agreement between the two parties provided some details of AltaSea’s project: a “world class urban marine research facility … at the Port of Los Angeles on property consisting of approximately 34.75 acres and approximately 180,000 square feet of institutional, research and commercial space.”
AltaSea agreed to construct, operate and maintain its marine research venue through Dec. 22, 2063. The nonprofit’s operations are located at 222 W. Sixth Street, Suite 1010, San Pedro. The commission, in October 2018, had separately approved changes to the city’s lease with AltaSea. The nonprofit ran into problems with utility services on the land it rents from the Port of L.A. Commissioners agreed to waive AltaSea’s rent until August, allowing the nonprofit to resolve its issues with the L.A. Department of Water and Power.

Blips on the Radar Latest News Updates Port of L.A.’s Harbor Commission nominee officially approved
Pres. Trump signs Natural Resources Management Act into law
Port of LA photo
What Happened: The L.A. City Council, on March 6, officially approved Diane Middleton’s appointment to the Los Angeles Board of Harbor Commissioners; she fills the seat left open by the death of Commissioner David Arian in January. She went to work immediately, sitting in on her first meeting the next day (March 7). Middleton, an attorney specializing in social justice and workers’ Diane Middleton was formally appointed onto the L.A. Board rights and of Harbor Commissioners, lives in San March 6. Pedro, was nominated by L.A. Mayor Eric Garcetti to fill Arian’s seat. A Port of Los Angeles statement on Middleton’s confirmation stated she started her own law practice in San Pedro in 1979, specializing in maritime law. She represented injured longshoremen and shipyard workers. Middleton retired from her law practice in 2010; she reportedly represented 7,000 individuals during her legal career. She also founded the Diane Middleton Foundation in 1998; the nonprofit organization, according to a Port of Los Angeles statement, is “committed to supporting individuals and organizations fighting for basic economic, labor and civil rights in the areas of housing and elimination of homelessness, educational reform, and labor organizing.” Arian, coincidentally, is connected to Middleton; they were both co-founders of the Harry Bridges Institute, an organization for laborers and worker education, in 1993.

What’s On Tap: Middleton already attended her first commission meeting and will continue to occupy the seat vacated by Arian until she retires or is no longer able to carry on with her duties.
By Parimal M. Rohit
What Happened: The Natural Resources Management Act, which received strong bipartisan support in both houses of Congress, is officially law, thanks to Pres. Donald J. Trump’s signature. Trump signed the bill on March 12. What’s On Tap: Outdoor enthusiasts and industry leaders welcomed the Natural Resources Management Act, which will protect acres of public lands and hundreds of miles of rivers. The new law is ripe with fishing-themed topics, such as protecting public access for anglers and permitting takings of certain fish species. The new law includes provisions addressing wild and scenic rivers, wildlife conservation, funding for the Land and Water Conservation Fund, and recreational activities on federal or nonfederal lands, among other matters. Trump, in signing the Natural Resources Management Act into law, stated the bill featured two matters of constitutional concern. The creation of the Adams Memorial Commission, for example, would have eight of its 12 members come from Congress. Those members would not be allowed to execute laws as part of the commission. (The commission aims to build a permanent memorial for Pres. John Adams in Washington, D.C.) The president also expressed concern over the law’s Migratory Bird Treaty Act, which directs the Interior Secretary to follow the suggestions of regional Flyway Councils in determining hunting seasons for certain migratory birds. “The Flyway Councils are not composed of officers of the United States, raising constitutional concerns related to the manner of their appointment and removal,” Trump stated. “To avoid these concerns, the [Interior] Secretary shall not treat this provision as limiting his discretion to reject the recommendation of a Flyway Council when establishing hunting seasons, as permitted by the act.”
The Log on Social Media “Good luck with the group of morons in the state legislature. They will again all seem to agree that it makes total sense and then, at the last minute add some sh*t to the bill to make it ridiculous. Then they vote to defeat it again. Total joke!!!” - Mark Henry Sahs, on Facebook, in reply to our article on the newest proposal for a 12-month fishing license.

What obligation does the Trump Administration have in enforcing the Marine Mammal Protection Act (courts seem to think the administration does have an obligation to do so)? Should the United States regularly resort to banning the import of seafood from commercial fisheries that use driftnets in their fishing practices?
Current proposals Rep. Alan Lowenthal, D-Long Beach, introduced H.R. 1305 – the Albatross and Petrel Conservation Act – earlier this year. Rep. Ted Lieu, D-Torrance, is one of the bill’s co-sponsors. H.R. 1305 proposes to update the High Seas Driftnet Fishing Moratorium Protection Act. The updated act’s updated language would protect non-target fish and marine mammals, as directed by accords such as the Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972 and the Endangered Species Act of 1973. H.R. 788, introduced by Rep. Daniel Webster, R-Florida, also proposes a few clarifications to the High Seas Driftnet Fishing Moratorium Protection Act – though the changes here specifically focus on protection of sharks. Lieu is also a co-sponsor of this bill. This bill was reportedly introduced to increase regulation of the international shark trade. Back up in Washington – state, not district – state senators are deliberating a proposal to phase out non-tribal salmon gillnet licenses by the end of 2022. “Many other states have banned gill nets, and we should end nonselective netting,” a legislative analysis of the Washington state proposal – Senate Bill 5617 – stated. The same legislative analysis also
Regulating driftnets at the domestic level seems to be fairly under control. What we are doing – or should be doing – on the international level appears to lacking a clear direction. Environment groups are pushing for stricter enforcement of the Marine Mammal Protection Act. Federal lawmakers are including driftnet updates in bills proposing to increase regulation of the international shark trade. And NOAA is reviewing a request to ban seafood imports from New Zealand, as part of an effort to save a local dolphin from driftnets. Should the United States have a cohesive federal policy to protect various marine species from driftnets, particularly in waters well beyond our shores? Is a seafood import ban, for example, enough? What other forms of leverage does the United States have – assuming we want to be more proactive in this space? Reach out to the following lawmakers, policy creators and thought leaders to share your thoughts on driftnets/gillnets (and whether the United States should or should not be more proactive in regulating the fishing practice). Marine Mammal Commission Dr. Daryl J. Boness, Chair 301-504-0087 mmc@mmc.gov American Sportfishing Association 703-519-9691 sgudes@asafishing.org` Center for Sportfishing Policy 225-382-3754 lauren@sportfishingpolicy.com
pondered whether other factors also contribute to the decline of various fish or marine mammal species. “[Fishers using] gillnets are selective by fishing during limited times and place,” the legislative analysis of Washington’s SB 5617 continued. “Gillnet fishers fish sustainably. Habitat degradation and a decrease in hatchery production are the real problem, not gillnet fishing.”
Recent History The use of driftnets in the United States, when all is said and done, appears to be a dying practice. States such as Oregon and Washington have been proactively regulating commercial fisheries using driftnets of their respective coasts. Drillnet activities are not allowed off the Atlantic Ocean or Gulf of Mexico coasts. California finally boarded the driftnet regulation train when State Sen. Ben Allen’s proposal to ban the fishing tool was signed into law by then Gov. Jerry Brown in 2018.

However, at least 60 other marine species, including whales, dolphins, sea lions, sea turtles, fish and sharks, can also become entangled in the large mesh nets, injuring or killing them. Most of these animals, referred to as bycatch, are discarded,” Feinstein’s office stated in a released statement

STATEWIDE—The Division of Boating and Waterways (DBW) and the California Coastal Commission invite the public to become volunteer Dockwalkers and help keep California’s rivers, lakes and ocean clean. These individuals help raise awareness about clean boating practices through the distribution of boater kits filled with educational information and pollution prevention tools. Dockwalkers also interact one-on-one with recreational boaters at marinas, yacht clubs, boat launch ramps, boating events and popular boating areas, or by simply talking to boaters wherever they are. The free Dockwalker trainings are set to begin in March and run through May 2019 around the state. Participation in the program, including the training sessions qualifies as community service. To find the cities where the training is available and to pre-register, please visit Dockwalker. BoatingCleanAndGreen.com and select “Dockwalker Program.” “Dockwalkers make it easy for boaters to learn how to implement clean boating practices,” said Vivian Matuk, Boating Clean and Green Program Manager. “We invite outdoor enthusiasts to make a difference for our waterways by becoming a Dockwalker. Anyone from 15 to 100 years young who is interested in water quality and sharing clean boating information can become a Dockwalker!” Training classes will be held in the following cities: Newport Beach (March 30); San Diego (April 27); Marina del Rey (May 4); and, San Pedro (May 11). If you are a boater, this is your program because you want to protect the waterways and share your knowledge with your peers. Many Dockwalkers are boaters themselves, thus the program boasts that it exerts a bit of “pier pressure.” Marinas and yacht clubs are also encouraged to participate in the Dockwalker Program. Participating facilities receive educational materials and tools to operate a clean boating facility and minimize water quality impacts. This program provides marinas with points towards the Clean Marina designation, and participation in the Dockwalker Program counts towards the nomination of the Club of the Year under the community service category. In addition, yacht clubs and marinas are essential in spreading awareness directly to boaters. Safety organizations such as the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary and U.S. Power Squadrons also benefit from the Dockwalker Program as it supports their current efforts, and enhances and broadens their boating safety mission. Partnerships with the Bay Foundation (DBW Clean Vessel Act Program), the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary, the U.S. Power Squadrons, Save Our Shores, Lake Berryessa Partnership and many more organi-

California’s Division of Boating and Waterways is seeking volunteers to become Dockwalkers. A Dockwalker helps raise awareness about clean boating practices and interacts with boats, marinas and yacht clubs.
zations are integral to this program’s success. California has one of the highest levels of recreational boating activity in the nation. With approximately 4 million boaters, even a small amount of pollution per vessel can cause serious harm
to waterways, marine fish and wildlife. Since 2000, more than a thousand Dockwalkers have taught 10,000 boaters about oil, fuel, sewage, trash and marine debris prevention.

The agency serving Dana Point’s boating community shares news concerning the East Basin-West Basin Marina consolidation, slip waitlists, selecting a new slip, potential marina design and more. By Devon Warren-Kachelein
DANA POINT—Dana Point Boaters Association (DPBA) has broken the silence on the layoffs that took place at Dana Point Harbor when the new landlords, Dana Point Harbor Partners (DPHP), combined marina management of the east and west basins. In a newsletter released by DPBA on Thursday, March 14, the combination of the marinas was discussed among many other topics concerning the harbor revitalization. The introduction to the newsletter reads, “We owe you updates on several hot topics – some old news, some breaking news, some forecasts for the future.” DPBA, which had previously given the boating community routine news updates about the revitalization project, has noticeably cut back on reporting news elements since the lease
between County of Orange and DPHP was signed in October. In an aim to explain the silence, the newsletter continues, “Also, our apologies for not responding to all of your queries. As you might imagine, we have heard from so many of you over the past few months, so many that we couldn’t reply to everyone. We hope this newsletter and tonight’s forum answer any remaining unanswered questions.” The forum referred to in the comment is an open house meeting at Dana Point Yacht Club held by DPBA. While the forum will be held after this article goes to press, any important information detailed from it will be updated online or included in an article printed at a later date. While the transition phrase has been rocky to say the least, DPBA’s tone stayed optimistic in spite of the referenced public outcry.
Marina Consolidation The Log reported on the east and west marinas consolidating in the March 8 issue. This had been hinted at leading up to the consolidation, but there was no official confirmation on behalf of DPHP at the time. DPBA’s newsletter reads, “The East and West Marinas are now one – The Marina at Dana Point. Your DPBA has been pushing for combining the two marinas for years. This move eliminates costly redundancy, improves efficiency through shared resources, and ensures consistency in operations on both sides of the bridge. The previous operating agreements with Dana Point Marina Company and TBW have been terminated and DPHP now directly operated The Marina at Dana Point.” The management office for The Marina at Dana Point will be operating

A call for anchoring seven days a week Imagine that you‘ve sailed all day from San Diego or Santa Barbara and need a rest for the night. Island White is on the navigation charts as an anchorage, so you head there and throw down your anchor. But it is Wednesday. Out comes the Long Beach Lifeguard boat to tell you that you can’t do what the charts tell you, but you can pay for a mooring. We think that is wrong. This is about fairness and what we have researched is the background, documentation, and argument for that fairness. Last fall, we met with the Marine Bureau to request anchoring seven days a week.

from the east office, which formerly housed Dana Point Marina Company. Phone numbers for any queries will be the same, according to DPBA.
New Marina Design, Slip Number & Slip Rates California Coastal Commission decreed Dana Point’s new marina would have no more than 2,254 slips, measuring up to 32 feet, each. DPBA’s newsletter states, “Today we have 2,409 slips averaging 29 feet. We also have vacancies under 30 feet, and demand exceeding a 10-year wait in some larger categories. How do we build a marina with no fewer than 2,254 slips, averaging no more than 32 feet, while making adjustments to serve the demand? It’s a 2,254-piece puzzle.” Another subject that had boaters in Dana Point clamoring was slip rates. Last summer, the county of Orange raised slip rates in an annual increase. DPBA has asked for DPHP to put a
Beach) was assigned the follow up. His response was that the Bureau was going to keep things as they are. His reasons: It meets with current levels of interest (cites no data); boaters are seemingly fortunate since they don’t have to get a permit (whereas they never have had to.) And he alluded to “undesired long-term informal anchorage that can bring considerable risks and undesired consequences” (again no data nor any indication of what those harms are), but he tossed a bone by giving an additional day on special holidays. The August 2018 issue of the Long Beach Marine Bureau’s Marine Reader, page 4, was entirely devoted to the Belmont Mooring Co. An advertisement and article sponsored by the Bureau. So already the Bureau is expending public monies to enforce no weekday anchoring and to advise boaters to pick up a mooring by virtue of sending out the lifeguards. The ad says you can pick up a mooring and pay for 10 days. However, the current BM website advertises a 15 day stay!
moratorium on any further slip rate increases this year. The newsletter states, “This is a big ask from a developer preparing to spend nine figures on marina improvements. But we believe it’s due and appropriate. We are about to experience the upheaval of major construction. So, we have made the request … and they haven’t said no. They haven’t said yes, but we are getting positive signs that may agree to this very important gesture to our harbor community. We will keep you posted.” Allegedly DPHP are working behind the scenes to begin construction on a parking structure, which will serve the area when the project is completed. The revitalization, which will include updated marina, commercial and hotel facilities, is currently slated for completion around 2028. For more information or to read the full newsletter mentioned in this article, visit the website at danapointboaters.org.
Now, The Log (Feb.8-21, 2019, p.19) is advertising this formerly free anchorage as an opportunity to pay for the privilege of picking up a mooring. Belmont Mooring will also provide barbeque. We ask if there is a permit to do so and if the Long Beach City Health Department now will need to inspect the new food facility? We have been out to Island White many times and have never seen nor heard of, nor is it advertised, trash pick-up, blue dye tabs, or pump-outs.The Belmont Mooring Company is not living up to the agreement with the Coastal Commission nor the City. It is simple call for fairness for seven days a week anchoring. A simple 72 hour anchoring limit any day of the week should be allowed. Such a policy exists in other marinas. It should exist in Long Beach. Lynn & Mark Nelson Comments printed in The Log may be edited for brevity or to correct grammatical errors. The full content of each comment can be read online.

For recreational boaters who plan to travel internationally this summer, a breakdown of when to report to CBP and how to navigate reporting arrival via phone application. By Devon Warren-Kachelein
STATEWIDE—Port of Los Angeles, known as “America’s premier port,” is one of the busiest in the nation. The Los Angeles Board of Port Commissioners, with the record-breaking number of cargo they moved in the past years, fittingly approved an amendment to Agreement No. 09-2153 with United States Customs and Border Protection (CBP). The amendment, approved by commissioners on March 7, would allow Los Angeles to grant reimbursement for CBP projects requiring layered security measures. Even for one of the biggest container shipping ports in the U.S., dealing with CBP can be costly and time-consuming – and for good reason since CBP’s job is to secure our borders and increase safety at home. Recreational boaters may not be slugging millions of dollars worth of cargo between nations (at least we hope not), but there are undoubtedly
a lot of boat owners in Southern California who wish to use their boats to travel to other places. The Log would like to walk boaters through some of the steps to cooperate with CBP and take the work out of leaving your slip for far-away lands. Here’s a few tips and information to consider for your next adventure to ensure smooth sailing – on the waters and with border patrol.

Nicole Sours Larson, penned an The ROAM app, a mobile device application that is in cooperation with U.S. Customs and Border Patrol, offers a way article for our Mexico edition last for boaters to report quickly when entering back into the country after an excursion.

race (not for money) and will not be in the United States for more than 90 days may be admitted without formal consumption entry or bond. A certificate identifying the boat will be issued to the importer and must be delivered with the vessel to the CBP office at the point of departure from the country. If a vessel entered for such purposes will be in the country for more than 90 days the importer will be required to post a bond. Any boats entered for sale or for sale on approval are not eligible for the Temporary Importation Under Bond (TIB) program and must be entered as a formal entry on a form CF7501.” Basically, if the vessel has docked in or is departing from another country’s shores, it will require reporting to CBP.
How to report to CBP During the busy summer season, CBP staffs locations for check-in for recreational boaters. Boaters who meet the requirements stated that qualify as leaving the country will be subject to report their arrival as well as have their vessel inspected. In order to comply with CBP, the master of the boat should call in telephonically. CBP will then direct the boater to the nearest Port of

Entry, which will satisfy the face-to-face Customs check-in. Another option will be that CBP will direct the boater to the aforementioned location for vessel inspection and complete passengers’ requirements to report back into the country. Also, be sure to check about the requirements prior to leaving a country as well. Foreign ports will also have their procedures in place to satisfy customs departures.
ROAM App & exceptions for face-to-face reporting Some exceptions to the rule for the average recreational boater are through joint U.S. and Canada programs such as NEXUS and Canadian Border Boat Landing Permit (I-68). Small Vessel Reporting System (SVRS) is no longer in service. In the age of apps and the internet, CBP has created a reporting app to be installed on a mobile device called ROAM. ROAM is likely the easiest way for boaters to report back into the country. This reporter gave it a try and it turned out to be a very enjoyable process even in the skepticism that ensued before downloading it. After downloading the app to a mobile device, there is a disclaimer that states, “This is a pilot version only
for use in limited areas. Contact your local Port of Entry for guidance.” Given that a vessel owner’s local Port of Entry accepts this method and you have been given clearance to use it, it appears to be fairly easy to access and would likely save a lot of time traveling to an entry point/waiting in line with other boaters. Create a login, complete with contact information and your location. Before thinking the system does not seem safe, it appears very secure. Not only must a password be considered “strong,” including at least 12 characters and a mixture of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers and symbols, there is also a specific code issued to each user. The app advises writing down the code and keeping it in a safe place – don’t lose it! Also, each time you log into the app, you are required to submit another code delivered via mobile phone number, email or through another source. Additional travelers can be added to the system as well as the mode of traveling. At this point, when using the app individuals can report their arrival. According to language of the app: “After you submit an arrival, you will receive a push notification on your device to start a video chat with CBP Officer to finish reporting your entry
into the United States.” The app also states: “For pleasure boaters, you can request to become a Verified Traveler during submission.” Upon further education, the Verified Traveler program allows eligible boaters to avoid the video chatting process with the CBP Officer. According to cbp.gov, “You can request a Verified Traveler number within the CBP ROAM app either in advance of a trip or during the trip submission process. After your request has been approved, you will receive an email with a Verified Traveler number for each approved applicant.” There is a tab labeled “Enrollment” in the app that easily allows for enrollment. All U.S. Citizens, U.S. nationals and lawful permanent residents can apply for this status. The app is fairly easy to use and navigate, and certainly for boaters who are dying to expedite the Customs process it’s a must-have on any mobile device. From that point, make sure to have a passport, be careful about bringing in agriculture that doesn’t belong in the country and prepare to have the most fun ever on your next international boating excursion. Visit cbp.gov for more information and other queries about international travel for boaters.
Council members close public hearing after revising mooring rate structures for 2019 Fiscal Year. By Devon Warren-Kachelein
AVALON—Avalon City Council, on March 5, adopted a resolution to establish revised mooring fees for the 2019 fiscal year’s schedule. On July 1, 2018, City Council members approved a recommendation from Avalon Harbor Department to increase fees by three percent and consolidate the shoulder and winter mooring fee rates into one “off-season” rate. City Council members directed staff to
revise the mooring rate structure for the 2019 Fiscal Year on Feb. 19. At one of Avalon’s shortest City Council meetings in recent time – even Mayor Ann Marshall commented the meeting, clocking just shy of one hour, was one of the briefest – council members continued a public hearing on the fee increase, which had previously outraged some people in the boating community. However, there were no public comments during the most recent discussion on harbor fees. During previous City Council meetings that took place in December 2018 and Feb. 5, Council member MacGugan-Cassidy had mentioned her request to revitalize Avalon’s now-defunct harbor committee had in some parts been inspired by public outcry

Harbor fee resolution approved by Avalon City Council
Avalon’s City Council previously voted to increase mooring fees in July 2018.
due to miscommunication around the increased harbor fees. Though the fee increase was passed in July, some persons who rented moorings in Avalon had felt there was not adequate notice given before the winter rates had increased. John King of Afishinados Charters confirmed notices of the increase had been sent from the harbor department and was advertised in the local newspaper. King stated, “None of us did the math” when the winter rates went away, but then noticed the rates had “nearly doubled” when they went into effect. The harbor committee was decidedly scrapped for the time being, but instead City Council members paved the way for members of the boating community, marine business owners and the harbor department to create a task force to discuss goals and receive complaints. At this time it is not known
if a date has been set for the harbor task force to meet, but it was discussed during the Feb. 5 City Council meeting to tentatively schedule the task force meeting before Avalon’s busy peak season in summer. Moorings in Avalon’s main harbor, Hamilton Cove and Descanso Bay can be reserved online at cityofavalon.com or by phone on a first-come, first-served basis. According to a PDF provided by the city, boats measuring 30 feet and smaller can anchor for $38 a night. Fees climb a tiered scale topping out at $154 per night for a boat measuring 100 feet and larger. For more information, contact the Avalon Harbor Department by phone at 310-510-0535 or emailing the staff at harborpatrol@cityofavalon.com. Council members Pam Albers and Cinde MacGugan-Cassidy were absent.

Demystifying U.S. Coast Guard marine casualty investigations – Part II
Winter Haulout Rates
U.S. Coast Guard Facebook photo
SAN DIEGO—Did you know the investigation into the 1912 sinking of the RMS Titanic produced new requirements, such as all commercial vessels must carry enough lifejackets and lifeboats for everyone aboard, plus enhanced safety equipment and crew training? Or that the U.S. Coast Guard revamped its search and rescue practices following investigations into a fatal 1997 Charleston, SC, sailboat accident? Recently I met with the USCG San Diego Sector’s marine casualty team, Senior Marine Investigator Lt. Cdr. Stefanie Hodgdon, Investigating Officer Lt. Miguel Maldonado and Marine Investigator Greg Cable, to learn about the investigative process. They noted the USCG primarily investigates incidents involving commercial vessels while state and local authorities mainly investigate incidents involving recreational boats. “We investigate accidents to prevent them from occurring in future,” explained Cable, with 29 years in the inspections and investigations field. “We also evaluate the Coast Guard and our internal processes following marine casualties,” Hodgdon added, in case a USCG rule or practice formed a contributing factor, as with the Charleston sailboat tragedy. “When something happens we look for the cause, whether it’s the Coast Guard, the mariner or external factors.” U.S. Coast Guard investigators have subpoena power, but licensed mariners involved in collisions often cooperate in Investigators have subpoena power if needed, though hopes of maintain their credentials. usually USCG-licensed mariners involved in accidents cooperate because which Coast Guard investigators present they want to retain their credentials.

they can draw on the knowledge of USCG divers or the Coast Guard Investigative Service, which can do technical analyses. If investigators require more specialized expertise they can also call in the USCG’s New Orleans-based National Center of Expertise, which focuses on marine investigations. All this requires time. For thoroughness and fairness investigators look for multiple sources to supply data and information to discover what happened, not a single source. There is no time limit for individual investigations. A simple enquiry, such as a straight-forward injury or natural-causes death aboard a cruiseship, might take a day or two, while a complex investigation into a collision or sinking can take several years. The investigating officers do not make final decisions about the outcome of investigations or determine any penalties. “We only provide recommendations based on the investigations,” Hodgdon explained, with administrative law judges issuing decisions and providing adjudication following hearings.

DBW Mandate: California harbors must fulfill boat share quota
By Parimal M. Rohit STATEWIDE—California’s marinas, from San Diego to Crescent City, will have to abide by a new mandate, as of Jan. 1, 2020: allocate 25 percent of slips to a new fractional ownership program as part of an effort to address the state’s housing crisis. Details of the proposed mandate have not been made public but The Log gained insight of what could be after a review of internal documents from the Division of Boating and Waterways and discussions with several unnamed sources privileged to information but not authorized to go on the record. Boats in these slips would be required to offer one to five percent proportional ownership stake to anyone born in 1985 or later. The proportional ownership mandate, which would allow all parties named on the vessel ownership to access 100 percent of the boat (regardless of percentage owned), was concocted by DBW staff and commissioners to solve California’s boating participation crisis. “Our president declared the southern border as a national crisis. We here in California have a statewide crisis – younger people aren’t buying boats.
at its most recent meeting, would also be a test run to address California other burgeoning emergency: housing. “Today it’s 25 percent of slips for fractional ownership. Next year another 25 percent of slips at each marina must be set aside for affordable housing initiatives,” a State Parks spokesperson said.

Designated slips at every marina within the state must honor fractional ownership model to boost boating participation, address housing crisis.
Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti suggested he was open to setting aside 50 percent of all boat slips in California to address escalating rents and dwindling boating participation. He said the to-be proposed mandates would effectively kill two birds with one stone. “Renting a studio or one-bedroom apartment in Los Angeles is virtually out of reach for anyone earning less than $100,000 per year. The boating industry is also hard-pressed to find new blood,” Garcetti observed. “So why not take a boat, coincidentally the size of or larger than a studio or one-bedroom in L.A., and share it with those who can’t otherwise afford a place to stay here. This way we get people into some form of housing and show them the benefits of boating along the way. It’s a long-term investment in our youth.” The Log will continue to monitor the fractional ownership mandates and report on updates as they occur. Hi! Thank you for reading through the entire article! April 1 is just around the corner, so we decided to have a little light-hearted fun. The Log’s Parimal M.

Bill aims to clarify definition of vessel operator Legislators also seek to declare a climate emergency and establish more oversight of Salton Sea’s restoration. By Parimal M. Rohit SACRAMENTO—Two Assembly members are proposing to update the definition of vessel operator, according to a
bill introduced on Feb. 21. Assembly Bill 1183 (AB 1183), if approved and signed into law, would expand the definition of who qualifies as a boat operator (and what responsibilities are attached to the expanded definition). Assembly members James Ramos and Jay Obernolte introduced the bill last month. Current state law defines a boat

operator as someone who is on board the vessel and steering it while it is underway. AB 1183 proposes a three-pronged revision of vessel operator: • The operator must be onboard and steering while the vessel is underway • The operator onboard is responsible for the operation of the vessel while it’s underway • The operator is at least 18 years old, is attentive and supervises the operation of the vessel by anyone between 12 and 15 years of age. Clarifying the definition of vessel operator comes with added weight, as several bills, in recent years, on the topics of impounding boats or boating while impaired by alcohol/drugs have been proposed and/or approved.
Climate Change Emergency Assembly member Todd Gloria, meanwhile, introduced a bill to declare climate change as an emergency. Assembly Bill 1445 (AB 1445) specifically states, “A climate emergency exists that threatens the state of California, the nation, humanity and the natural world.” Gloria’s proposal would require California to immediately phase out fossil fuels and pursue a policy of zero
greenhouse gas emissions by 2030. “Irrevocable damage to the environment has been caused by global warming of approximately 1 degree celsius demonstrating that the Earth is already too hot for safety and justice, as attested by increased and intensifying wildfires, floods, rising seas, diseases, droughts, and extreme weather,” the language of AB 1445 states. “Climate change and the global economy’s expansion beyond ecological limits are driving the sixth mass extinction of species, causing a 60 percent decline in global wildlife populations since 1970.”
Salton Sea Efforts to restore the Salton Sea could receive an added layer of government oversight, thanks to the introduction of Assembly Bill 1657 (AB 1657) by Assembly Member Eduardo Garcia. The Natural Resources Agency’s Office of the Salton Sea will have a Salton Sea Oversight Committee if AB 1657 is approved by the legislature and signed into law by Gov. Gavin Newsom. Both the office and committee would be extensions of the Salton Sea Restoration Act, which aims to restore the waterway’s fish and shoreline habitats and improve overall water quality.

Carlsbad Aquafarms will continue its cultivation and nursery operation at Agua Hediodonda Lagoon. By Parimal M. Rohit
LOS ANGELES—A company cultivating Mediterranean mussels and Pacific oysters at an aquaculture farm in Carlsbad finally has a coastal development permit, or CDP, after nearly 30 years of operations. Carlsbad Aquafarms, which operated a shellfish aquaculture farms at Agua Hedionda Lagoon in Carlsbad since 1990, earned its CDP from the California Coastal Commission on March 7. Agua Hedionda Lagoon also hosts several recreational activities, such as kayaking and standup paddleboarding. The farm fettered 75 longlines within the lagoon to cultivate Mediterranean mussels and Pacific oysters. “Although [Carlsbad Aquafarms] has been in operation since at least 1990 (and under its current ownership since 2014), it has been doing so without benefit of a coastal development permit. Through this application, [Carlsbad Aquafarms] is seeking after-the-fact authorization for its existing facility and operations,” Coastal Commission staff stated in a report to commissioners. “As

A dive boat alerted officials that the whale was struggling, and NOAA’s Hawaiian Islands Humpback Whale National Marine Sanctuary coordinated a rescue effort with the U.S. Coast Guard and others. Several private boats, including a commercial fishing vessel, tracked the whale while waiting for officials to arrive. The U.S. Coast Guard arrived and attached a tracking beacon to the whale in case they were not able to immediately remove the debris. NOAA’s Ed Lyman, the sanctuary’s whale entanglement coordinator, was part of the team that cut the gear away from the whale. The whale was dragging about 500 feet (152 meters) of gear and the thick line was “deeply embedded” in the whale’s mouth, he said. Lyman said when this happens officials will leave a portion of the line where it is to prevent further injury. The line usually falls out on its own once the weight of the entangled debris is removed, he said. The team was able to cut the line from the whale ahead of its tail, which reduces the risk of it getting further entangled. It is possible the whale migrated from Alaska or another northern feeding ground with the gear already attached. The trap line that was found in the whale is typically used to catch crabs and other bottom fish in the north Pacific. “This would not be the first time a whale has dragged gear 2,500 nautical miles,” Lyman said.“This looks like it had been active gear, and it probably was up there and yes the whale probably dragged it, and
a result of [Carlsbad Aquafarms’] failures to obtain the necessary authorizations prior to carrying out development activities, violations of the Coastal Act exist on the subject property.” Reported violations included the installation and use of shellfish aquaculture longlines, as well as construction and operation of offices, a shellfish nursery, marine algae laboratory, depuration systems, and shellfish processing and packing facilities. Carlsbad Aquafarms prepared and submitted its CDP application in response to the violations, which was noticed by Coastal Commission enforcement staff. The CDP addresses issues potentially raised by the California Coastal Act, such as local habitats and marine wildlife. Coastal Commission staff specifically stated the aquaculture operation could have several adversely affects, such as: • Accidental release of marine debris • Disturbance or damage to eelgrass • Disturbance or alteration of seafloor habitats • Spread of no-native species • And, degradation of water quality. The CDP does come with specific instructions of what Carlsbad Aquafarms must do to discharge of its materials. “[Carlsbad Aquafarms] shall not intentionally dispose of or release any equipment or waste, including

Hawaiian humpbacks feed in the cool waters around Alaska in the summer and then come to the warmer waters around Hawaii to mate and raise their young in the winter months. There are usually about 10 whale entanglement responses each year in Hawai’i, Lyman said. There have been nine confirmed entanglements so far this season and 14 last year. - Caleb Jones, Associated Press
partly because they breed relatively few times, their schools are sometimes caught in fishing nets and their fins are prized in Asian markets. Marine biologist Alex Hearn of San Francisco University in Quito said researchers had believed that the hammerheads gave birth along continental coasts, so the discovery of the island nursery opens new lines of study. The hammerheads are an attraction for divers visiting the Galapagos, about 600 miles (1,000 kilometers) west of the mainland, and an image of a hammerhead is part of the Galapagos National Park’s emblem. - Gonzalo Solano, Associated Press
Hammerhead “nursery” discovered in the Galapagos Islands QUITO, Ecuador (AP)—Researchers in Ecuador say they have discovered a “nursery” of hammerhead sharks off the coast of the Galapagos Islands, a find that may help them track and protect the endangered predators. The head of the project, Eduardo Espinosa, said the group had found 20 hammerheads in the area along Santa Cruz island, and was able to attach monitors to five of them. “That site, where the babies spent two or three years, is important not only for the Galapagos but on a world scale because it gives hope for the protection and conservation of a species,” he said. The International Union for the Conservation of Nature lists hammerhead sharks as endangered species that have suffered sharply declining numbers in recent years around the world. They are vulnerable
LOCAL California urged to join irrigation plans to replenish Colorado River, can’t make promises PHOENIX (AP)—A major Southern California water agency is trying to push the state through a final hurdle in joining a larger plan to preserve a key river in the U.S. West that serves 40 million people. Most of the seven states that get water from the Colorado River have signed off on plans to keep the waterway from crashing amid a prolonged drought, climate change and increased demands. But California and Arizona have not, missing deadlines from the federal government. Arizona has some work to do but nothing major holding it back. California, however, has two powerful water agencies fighting over how to get the drought contingency plan approved before U.S. officials
possibly impose their own rules for water going to California, Arizona and Nevada. The Metropolitan Water District is positioning itself to shoulder nearly all of California’s water contribution, with its board voting unanimously to essentially write out of the drought plan another agency that gets more Colorado River water than anyone else. That agency, the Imperial Irrigation District, has said it won’t approve the plan unless the federal government agrees to commit $200 million to address the Salton Sea, a massive, briny lake southeast of Los Angeles that has become an environmental and health hazard in the Imperial and Coachella valleys. The Metropolitan Water District – a massive agency that supplies drinking water to 19 million people in Southern California – would have to provide what could be nearly 2 million acre-feet of water between 2020 and 2026. An acre-foot serves about one to two average households a year. That water would be stored behind Lake Mead on the Arizona-Nevada line to keep the key reservoir from dropping to drastically low levels. Water is delivered through Lake Mead to Arizona, California and Nevada. California isn’t required to contribute water under the drought plan unless Lake Mead drops to 1,045 feet (319 meters), which might not ever happen. But if it does, the Imperial Irrigation District said the public would likely demand that it contribute as the agency with the largest and oldest rights to Colorado River water. - Felicia Fonseca & Jonathan J.

Catalina Connection Catalina Island Company announces activities to mark William Wrigley Jr.’s purchase of the island 100 years ago CATALINA ISLAND—Any Catalina history buff (and most people who have the pleasure to experience Catalina Island, for that matter) know the impact William Wrigley Jr. had on the island. Wrigley purchased the island in 1919, which paved the way for it to become a major celebrity getaway spot and, famously, a Spring Training ground for the Chicago Cubs, the baseball team he also owned. One hundred years later, Catalina Island will entertain several special events that coincide with the centennial of Wrigley buying the island. In a release by Catalina Island Company, it stated: “This year marks the centennial of chewing gum magnate William Wrigley Jr.’s purchase of the Catalina Island Company … To commemorate this momentous milestone, visitors will be able to enjoy several new experiences, including two Anniversary Tours that take a nostalgic journey through Avalon, and a special
Catalina Island Museum exhibit celebrating Wrigley’s first year on the island and the decade that followed. Visitors will also be able to enjoy flashback menu items, once served at historic venues such as Hotel St. Catherine, now available for a limited time at Catalina Island Company restaurants.” The two anniversary guided tours mentioned are: Wrigley’s Catalina, which takes guests on a scenic onehour-and-fifteen-minute jaunt around the island; and, Magnificent Mt. Ada, a two-hour tour of the Wrigley’s famous home. For Wrigley’s Catalina, tickets are $39.95 for adults and $37.95 for seniors, military and children. Magnificent Mt. Ada tours are $69.95 for adults and $65.95 for seniors, military and children. Hotel Atwater, one of Avalon’s historic hotels that originally opened to the public in 1920, will also reopen in August. Named for Philip Knight Wrigley’s wife, Helen Atwater Wrigley, the hotel is currently accepting reservations beginning on August 18, 2019. Catalina Island Museum’s
exhibit, Wrigley’s Catalina: A Centennial Celebration, will run through January 2020. Events listed in this article are not the complete itinerary, but the year is sure to see many other Wrigley-centered celebrations on Catalina. For more information on the experiences in this article, visit the websites visitcatalina.com and catalinamuseum.org.

TWO HARBORS—Easter is traditionally a time to spend with family, which for boaters means the opportunities to celebrate as they jet through the water. Corsair Yacht Club (CYC) cordially invites boating family and friends to join in for three days of festivities – from April 19 to 21 – over the Easter holiday weekend. There will be a variety of festive activities planned for children and adults alike. The Easter celebration kicks off at 4 p.m. on Friday afternoon with appetizers and a no-host wine bar reception at The Harbor Sands Restaurant picnic site. In anticipation for the Easter parade, adults and children can decorate hats and bonnets at Buffalo Park at 10 a.m.; materials will be provided. That afternoon at 3:30 p.m. judges will award prizes to those who have decorated the best hats. In the evening, there will be a ‘bring your own BBQ dinner’ and the famous Corsair punch bowl will offer refreshments. As soon as the sun sets, attendees can gather by the bonfire for the “burning of the socks” event and poetry reading. Saturday night will conclude with music at Buffalo Park stage. John Glaister, commodore of CYC, says the burning of the socks tradition is newer and provides boaters the opportunity to “create and recite a poem at the Saturday night bonfire that expresses their relief that winter is finally coming to an end and the boating socks will soon be replaced by bare foot sailing.” Glaister continues, “As the poem is recited the socks are ceremoniously tossed into the fire. It’s a fun evening event that has generated

Midwinters West regatta raises the stakes for series Second Etchells race of the season comes to Coronado Roads, April 5-7. By Parimal M. Rohit
SAN DIEGO—The 2019 racing season is picking up steam, what with the second regatta of the Etchells West Coast Spring Series (WCSS) coming to Coronado Roads in San Diego, April 5-7. San Diego Yacht Club, for the fifth year, will host Etchells Midwinters West during the first weekend of April. Etchells Midwinters West is one
of four regattas making up the West Coast Spring Series. (The other three are NOOD, Etchells Pacific Coast Championship and Etchells ORCA Bowl. Etchells Midwinters West does not come with a throw-out option, making it the only required regatta within the series. Last year’s Midwinters regatta featured 20 teams competing against each other. Organizers expect this year’s races to feature even more competitors. Teams are using this regatta to tune up for the Worlds, which takes place June 24-29. “Etchells are known for their tight
races,” San Diego YC staff said in a released statement promoting the regatta. “Typically, there [are] only a few feet separating the top boats at the end of the 1.5-mile beat. This means close finishes and a range of possibilities on who can take home the trophy. The 2016 WCSS was especially exciting when after 26 races, Bruce Nelson won the WCSS Championship on the last leg of the race of the series by passing two boats.” San Diego YC member Rick Goebel returns to the Etchells fleet this year; he recently spent tine sailing J/105s. Goebel stated he would be out on the water, preparing for the race.
“Several of the teams will have a coach and boat and will be on the water early to practice and to tune,” Goebel said in a released statement. “This is the best approach for a big regatta as you get the perspective from off the boat and a recap of what went well and what needs work. We will be out the two days before each of the regattas as definitely need the time in the boat and this is the best way for us to get settled in prior to the racing.” A post-race barbecue will be held on April 6, followed by an awards ceremony on April 7.

Nonprofit sailing organization hosts its latest Opening Day festivities on April 13. By Parimal M. Rohit
LONG BEACH—Little Ships Fleet Yacht Club will celebrate its 82nd year in Long Beach when it hosts Opening Day on April 13. Members of the nonprofit sailing organization shared a brief history of Little Sails Fleet YC, pointing out what
sets them apart from other yacht clubs in Southern California (and elsewhere, for that matter). The yacht club started in response to regattas being open to boats meeting established criteria on size and cruising accommodations. Non-class boats were only allowed to compete based upon arbitrary handicapping, founders of Little Ships Fleet YC believed. “It all started with the idea of organizing a racing and cruising club for owners of non-class boats in the Long Beach area and originated in 1937 with six people,” the narrative
provided by Little Ships Fleet Yacht Club. “At that time, non-class boats were not included in any of the Southern California yachting regattas. If you wanted to go racing, you were pretty much on your own!” Organizers named the yacht club after a similar See LITTLE SHIPS page 27

Recreational ocean salmon fishery almost ready for 2019 season
By Parimal M. Rohit
STATEWIDE—The 2019 recreational ocean salmon fishery will open off most of the California coast during the first two weeks of April; dates for the remaining sections of coast to be open for the fishery will be announced next week. Season open dates were announced during the Pacific Fishery Management Council (PFMC) March meetings in Vancouver, Washington. Recreational ocean salmon fishing will open on April 6 in the Monterey management area (Pigeon Point and south to U.S.-Mexico border). The Fort Bragg and San Francisco management areas, located between Horse Mountain and Pigeon Point, will have its recreational salmon fishery open on April 13. Pigeon Point is at 37° 11’ 00” N. latitude, while Horse Mountain is at 40° 05’ 00” N. latitude. The recreational salmon fishery will

ment. “Recreational fishing representatives prioritized opening this area ahead of others on the California coast, though it may lead to decisions to close the season earlier in Monterey than in other areas. Delaying the opener in areas to the north should allow for more fishing opportunity there later in the year, when catch rates are typically better.” Anglers, stakeholders and members of the public are invited to a hearing for season proposals on March 26. The hearing will be at 7 p.m. and take place at Hampton Inn, 1160 Airport Park Boulevard in Ukiah. Those who can’t attend the meeting in person can watch live on the PFMC website, which is www.pcouncil.org.

IN MEMORIAM: DARRELL J. LOWRANCE, FOUNDER OF THE PORTABLE SONAR “FISH FINDER” By Parimal M. Rohit
Darrell J. Lowrance, founder of Lowrance Electronics Inc. and inventor of the first portable sonar “fish finder” – or the Fish-Lo-K-Tor – for everyday anglers, died, it was reported in mid-March. A post on Lowrance Electronics’ Facebook page stated Lowrance died on March 16; he suffered from a stroke. News reports, however, acknowledged his many contributions to and successes in the recreational fishing world. The American Sportfishing Association, for example, bestowed its Lifetime Achievement Award onto Lowrance in 2007, in honor of showing extraordinary leadership throughout his career and promoting sportfishing’s values.

of Fame in 2013; he also served on the American Sportfishing Association board in 2006 and 2007. His claim to fame, however, was the Fish-Lo-KTor, which was also referred to many as the “Little Green Box.” The sonar fish finder was a creation of Lowrance Electronics, a company founded by Lowrance; he served as the company’s president from 1964-2006. Lowrance Electronics, based in Tulsa, Oklahoma, was a family-run business for many years. Many Lowrance products are now branded under Navico. The Lowrance Electronics founder was also active with American Fishing Tackle Manufacturer’s Association (AFTMA), which was American Sportfishing Association’s predecessor. Lowrance served as AFTMA’s chair and board member; he also sat on several of the association’s committees.

San Diego Report
By Bob Vanian SAN DIEGO—It is a couple of days before the official start of spring (which begins March 20) as this report is being written but the past weekend (March 16 and 17) appeared to mark the beginning of what a lot of anglers would consider to be “springtime” or “springlike” fishing. A steady series of weather systems forced anglers to find ways to drop lines during the past two months, and there had not been much in the way of surface fishing action going on until four days ahead of the official start of spring. Good yellowtail fishing found at this time near the Rockpile region of Los Coronado Islands. The yellowtails biting in the region of the Rockpile are reported to be quality sized 10- to 15-pound fish. They have been biting best on yo-yoed iron that is dropped down to fish that are located by finding meter marks and sonar marks. Good jig choices include Salas 6X, 6X Jr. and 7X sized yo-yo jigs in blue and white, scrambled egg and sardine colors. In addition to yo-yoed iron, there have also been some yellowtails biting on sardines that are fished deep on a dropper loop rig.
The yellowtail have been biting in an area within 3 miles of the high spot at the Rockpile with the past couple of days seeing yellows found to the southwest, the east and the southeast of the high spot. The fish counts for boats fishing the Rockpile region on March 17 start with Mission Belle out of Point Loma Sportfishing, which had 13 anglers on a full-day trip catching 16 yellowtails, six rockfish and one lingcod. H&M Landing had Grande fishing a fullday trip with 13 anglers who caught 51 rockfish, seven lingcod and three yellowtails. Fisherman’s Landing had a full-day trip aboard Liberty with 20 anglers who caught 34 yellowtails, 50 rockfish, eight lingcod and three bonito. Seaforth Sportfishing had a fullday trip aboard San Diego fishing with 17 anglers catching 15 yellowtails, three bonito and 100 rockfish. In addition to the fishing for yellowtail around the Coronado Islands, there has also been good fishing for rockfish at hard bottom areas to the north and northwest of North Island in 40 to 65 fathoms of water. Another productive rockfish zone has been while fishing the South Kelp Ridge below South Island in 25 to 40 fathoms of water.
A Good Day to Fish
Hook’s Landing photo
OXNARD—A weekend overnighter aboard New Hustler out of Hook’s Landing in Oxnard returned to shore with 20 sheephead (and a couple lingcod to go with limits of rockfish and whitefish). A post on New Hustler’s Facebook page about the overnight trip stated the weather conditions on March 10 “was great.” The overnighter had 16 anglers on board.

Possible new regulations will be presented across the state; the only SoCal meeting is in Rancho Cucamonga. By Parimal M. Rohit
STATEWIDE—Public meetings to discuss possible changes to California’s trout season and fishing regulations are already underway, with the first of six meetings held across the state already held. California’s Department of Fish and Wildlife, or DFW, announced it early March it would host a half-dozen public meetings, in various cities, to update anglers on proposed changes to trout fishing regulations and seek the public’s input on potential statewide regulation changes. “The California Fish and Game Commission directed our department to make the regulations and seasons more simple and easy to understand, while continuing to protect and manage the state’s trout resources,” Roger Bloom, DFW’s Inland Fisheries Program Manager, said in a released statement. “We look forward to explaining how these new changes came about, and how they could be implemented.” DFW staff stated the meetings would focus on these key areas: objectives of the proposed regulations; species management goals; consolidation of process; parameters of standardized regulations; and, a review of proposed regulation changes. “[DFW] personnel will be available at information stations to answer questions and listen to stakeholder interests, needs and ideas,” a statement issued by DFW staff read. “All stakeholder input will be taken into consideration as a regulation simplification
package is developed for formal public review through the California Fish and Game Commission.” The first meeting was already held on March 20 in Bishop. The only public meeting in Southern California will be held on April 6, from noon to 2 p.m., at the Bass Pro Shops in Rancho Cucamonga (7777 Victoria Gardens Lane). Meetings will also be held at the following locations: • March 27, Redding Library Community Room, 1100 Parkview Avenue, Redding (6-8 p.m.) • April 3, Betty Rodriguez Regional Library, 3040 N. Cedar Ave., Fresno (6-8 p.m.) • April 10, Colonial Heights Library Community Room, 4799 Stockton Blvd., Sacramento (6-8 p.m.) • April 23, 2019, Truckee-Tahoe Airport Community Room, 10356 Truckee Airport Road, Truckee (6-8 p.m.). All meetings are in-person only. Conference calls or webcast options are not available for any of the meetings. Visit www.wildlife.ca.gov/fishing/inland/trout-plan for more information.
