BIZARRE

Unusual Jellyfish Discovered in Monterey Bay

A new species of deep-sea crown jelly, Atolla reynoldsi, discovered by MBARI researchers and named in honor of Jeff Reynolds, the first volunteer at the Monterey Bay Aquarium, MBARI’s education and conservation partner.

A. reynoldsi is relatively large compared to other species of Atolla. The largest specimen MBARI researchers collected was 13 centimeters (5.1 inches) in diameter, making this newly discovered species one of the largest in the genus.

Like other deep-sea crown jellies, A. reynoldsi has a furrowed bell. A deep groove runs around the bell, separating the domed bell from the wide margin with thick segments, known as pedalia, containing finger-like lappets. The edge of the bell resembles a crown, earning this group of jellies its regal name. The “crown” in A. reynoldsi has warty papillae and spiked ridges. Only one other species of Atolla—A. chuni, known from the South Atlantic and Southern oceans— has a similarly bumpy bell. A. reynoldsi also has a distinct gut shaped like a Greek cross.

In addition to the lack of the hypertrophied tentacle, A. reynoldsi is often observed with its tentacles coiled. MBARI researchers have learned that the number of tentacles may not be a reliable diagnostic tool for identifying individual species of Atolla. Tentacle number varies considerably from one individual to the next, and the new A. reynoldsi can have anywhere from 26 to 39 tentacles.

A. reynoldsi is not common—MBARI researchers have only observed ten specimens between April 2006 and June 2021.

So far, this species is only known from Monterey Bay and lives at depths of 1,013 to 3,189 meters (3,323 to 10,463 feet).

A. reynoldsi is molecularly distinct from the other Atolla species that the MBARI research team collected and is morphologically distinct from all 10 de-

MONTEREY BAY—In a study conducted on March 16 by the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI) research team scientists have uncovered an “unusual” new species of deepsea jellyfish living in the waters off the California coast and have chosen to name it Atolla reynoldsi .

MBARI discovered the creature. It lives in the so-called midnight zone of the ocean – between one and four kilometers deep – a mysterious region where light only comes from animals that produce it themselves, and the pressure reaches 5,580 pounds per square inch.

The new jelly is a part of the Atolla family. One feature of the jellyfish researchers often use to identify Atolla is a single elongated or hypertrophied tentacle. One tentacle can stretch up to six times the diameter of the bell. Researchers believe this long tentacle helps capture prey; researchers in Japan suggest the single trailing tentacle helps a hungry Atolla catch siphonophores (rope-like gelatinous animals made of specialized segments).

The deep-sea crown jelly Atolla is one of the ocean’s most common midnight zone residents. Its bell has a signature scarlet color and bears one tentacle much longer than the rest. So, 15 years ago, when MBARI researchers spotted a jelly that looked like Atolla but lacked the telltale trailing tentacle, their curiosity was sparked.

Researchers have named their discovery Atolla reynoldsi in honor of the first volunteer at the Monterey Bay Aquarium, MBARI’s education and conservation partner, Jeff Reynolds.

“We named this stunning new species in honor of Jeff Reynolds in recognition of the 4.3 million hours of service that he and other volunteers have contributed to the Monterey Bay Aquarium over the past 38 years,” said MBARI Senior Education and Research Specialist George Matsumoto in the MBARI press release. “They have graciously given their time to educate the public about the ocean’s wonders.

In addition, Aquarium volunteers have been instrumental in raising awareness about the fragility of the ocean and inspiring the public to care about the health of the ocean.”

Matsumoto and his co-authors believe two more previously unknown species of Atolla also live in the depths of Monterey Bay. They hope to eventually include these new additions to Atolla’s family tree.

Over the past 15 years, MBARI researchers have observed and collected specimens of three types of Atolla-like jellies that lack the typical trailing tentacle. In addition, researchers have collected sufficient details about morphological and molecular features to describe one of these three unique jellies.

A new species of deep-sea crown jelly, Atolla reynoldsi, discovered by MBARI researchers. This individual was observed off Monterey Bay at a depth of 1,463 meters (4,800 feet) by MBARI’s ROV Doc Ricketts in 2018

scribed Atolla species. However, it shares the presence of papillae with A. chuni.

The deep-sea crown jelly Atolla is found worldwide and can be abundant in deep water. MBARI’s archive has more than 27,600 hours of video containing thousands of observations of Atolla. To date, scientists recognize ten species in the genus. Atolla chuni, A. gigantea, and A. vanhoeffeni are the most recognizable; they have unique features that make them relatively easy to identify. But others, even the widespread A. wyvillei, can be rather difficult to identify. In addition, some characteristics thought to be species-specific have turned out to be less than helpful in separating the species.

“This is such an honor to have this new species named after me,” said Reynolds.

“It also honors all the fantastic Aquarium volunteers over the decades. I was just the lucky one to be there so early on,” said Jeff Reynolds. “Volunteering and working for the Aquarium for 42 years was just such an awesome and rewarding experience.

It was especially wonderful being taken in as a 16-year-old kid by mentors like [Aquarium co-founder] Steve Webster and Tom Williams to just do whatever needed being done at the moment, from vacuuming the floor to caring for stranded sea otter pups to assisting with whale necropsies to building exhibit models.

Discovering King Crab Fishing Via the Newfound Fish and Wildlife Service

By: KATHERINE

M. CLEMENTS

A f ter two explorator y missions conducted by the newly found Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) Exploratory Base in Seattle in the Bering Sea, the discovery of the big market for king crabs sparked the construction of the vessel Deep Sea, who set out for her first venture on May 29, 1947.

Before Deep Sea was built, the Washington, an exploratory vessel built for FWS had returned from the Bering Sea on October 23, 1948, after completing Exploratory Cruise # 1.

Her assignment was to explore the waters of the Northeastern Pacific. However, after experiencing her performance out on the water, the Washington would have had to undergo a significant renovation to become a successful exploratory vessel.

So, the decision was made to design and build a research vessel instead. It would be a year and three months until that vessel became available on Feb.18, 1950, as the R /V John N. Cobb, commissioned at

the Oceanography dock at the University of Washington.

Meanwhile, the project had to continue without a research vessel. So then, the M/V Deep Sea was chartered for Cruise # 2, which was a bottom fish exploration of the Bering Sea, commenced June 1949 ,24, and ended July 1949 ,5, to complete what the Washington had initially set out to achieve.

The FWS had been involved with Lowell Wakefield, the president of Deep-Sea Trawler Inc. and owner of the chartered M/V Deep Sea. His father, Lloyd Wakefield, became interested in reports of king crabs from the FWS reports of the surveys of 1940 & 1941. The Wakefields had a 35-foot trawler built in Seattle. They took it north to Kodiak to experiment with methods of catching, processing, and preserving king crab at their herring plant at Port Wakefield on Raspberry Island, northeast of Kodiak. By the end of the war, Lowell had developed a company called Deep Sea Trawlers.

The company decided to have a seaworthy vessel built to work in the remote and treacherous

Bering Sea, where the FWS had found an abundance of king crabs.

Before the war, the Japanese had shown a market in the U.S. for canned king crab, and Wakefield’s experiments done in Alaska during the war determined that frozen king crab quality was better than canned. They had a Tacoma, WA. shipyard build a 140’ Atlantic side trawler that could process king crab, which was the beginning of Deep Sea’s missions.

Deep Sea Trawler Inc. asked the FWS to supply an expert to accompany the vessel as an observer and adviser. That person was Boris O. Knake, a Fishery Engineer from the FWS Tech-

nological Laboratory, Boston, who had expertise in east coast side trawling, net repair, trawl design, and knowledge of fish processing. He was aboard the vessel from the start of this first voyage in the Bering Sea to when he boarded the F WS Brown Bear on June 20, 1947, to return to Boston. He suggested several modifications that he felt should be considered. As a result, he was invited back on the fourth voyage, arriving in Seattle on Feb. 6, 1948, and working with the crew getting the trawls modified to fish king crab. Knake was aboard the vessel when she departed Seattle on March 16, 1948, and remained aboard until May 12, 1948, when he got off at False Pass and headed back to Boston. The vessel planned to continue fishing in the Bering Sea until November before returning to Seattle.

In his logs, Knake noted that Carl B. Carlson, another FWS

Fisheries Engineer who accompanied the Pacific Explorer trip to the Bering Sea, came aboard the Deep Sea from the Mars on April 1948 ,13, and departed on the Sunbeam, both vessels from the Pacific Explorer fishing fleet.

Then on April 24, 1948, the Pacific Explorer fleet reported good fishing in the Bering Sea. And finally, after making good catches of king crab, the Deep S e a he a ded for Fa lse Pa ss after picking up the mail from the Pacific Explorer. The two operations were in contact with each other.

The 1949 charter with FWS came at a good time for both groups. The Exploratory Base finished off the exploration of the Bering Sea northwest of the area where fisheries were being conducted. In addition, it gave Deep Sea Trawlers Inc. the knowledge of the unknown regions and helped them financially.

Pepper Park Redesign Receives $250,000 Check from Austal USA SAN DIEGO— On May 5, Austal USA presented a $250,000 check to the Port of San Diego for Pepper Park improvements. The check was presented as part of the port’s Pepper Park Community Design Workshop, which allowed the public to provide input and see a preliminary design plan for the waterfront development. “Pepper Park is already a recreational gem on our San Diego Bay waterfront,” said Commissioner Sandy Naranjo, Board of Port Commissioners, in a May 6 press release. “Austal USA’s $250,000 gift, on top of what we’ve already budgeted for the redesign and enhancements, will truly help make it sparkle. Thank you to Austal USA and all in the community who are helping us transform Pepper Park into a resource that visitors and residents will cherish for years to come.” The donation brings the current budget to approximately $4.1 million. Austal USA is a ship-repair facil-

ity that opened a facility on San Diego Bay along the National City waterfront in November 2021. For more information, see the Port of San Diego website.

STATE/NATIONAL/ INTERNATIONAL Outdoor Recreation Act Passes Senate Committee On May 3, the U.S. Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources unanimously approved the America’s Outdoor Recreation Act of 2022. The act has several parts meant to improve and increase outdoor recreation opportunities, including recreational fishing, on federal lands. In addition, some divisions apply specifically to the sportfishing industry, including: • Improved Visitation Data, which will require federal land management agencies to establish a single visitation data management and modeling system for public recreation. The data will be used to better understand economic growth in outdoor recreation and manage federal lands.

• Federal Land and Aquatic Resource Activities Assistance, which will increase inspections and decontamination of watercrafts entering federal sites to stop the spread of aquatic invasive species between waterways.

• Ensuring Recreation is a Management Priority will create an inventory of recreation opportunities on federal lands and requires federal agencies managing lands to protect and enhance the value of outdoor recreation.

The bill is now waiting for consideration by the full Senate.

California Congressman Requests Funding for Rockfish Assessment On April 29, Rep. Jared Huffman of District 2 requested the fiscal year 2023 funding for a coast-wide fishery-independent assessment of Pacific rockfish over rocky habitat. Huffman asked for the addition of a line to provide funding for the assessment in a letter to the Chairman of the Subcommittee on Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies Committee on Appropriations and Ranking Member of the committee Robert Aderholt. “Given the economic and social value of these fisheries and the seriousness of these closures on fishing communities, it is critical that we ensure managers have the highest quality data possible upon which to base these decisions,” said Huffman in the letter. “Fishery-independent surveys exist for stocks targeted by commercial trawl fisheries. There is no less need for such surveys for the distinct stocks targeted by recreational and non-trawl commercial fisheries.” In the letter, he requests a $5,000,000 allocation to the Northwest Fisheries Science Center to conduct a coastwide assessment of rockfish fisheries over rocky habitats in California.

California’s Boating and Fishing News

What is the difference between civil law and maritime law?

2C DARK BKGND

BW

QUESTION:

I have been following your column for a long time, and I am often confused by the various differences between maritime law and regular civil law. It would be helpful to see those differences listed in one place, but I’m concerned that this would require a 300-page textbook. Can you review some of the differences here, at least as they may be of interest to recreational boaters?

David Weil is the managing attorney at Weil & Associates (www. weilmaritime.com) in Seal Beach. He is certified as a Specialist in Admiralty and Maritime Law by the State Bar of California Board of Legal Specialization and a “Proctor in Admiralty” Member of the Maritime Law Association of the United States, an adjunct professor of Admiralty Law, and former legal counsel to the California Yacht Brokers Association. If you have a maritime

law question for Weil, he can be contacted at 562-799-5508, through his website at www.weilmaritime.com, or via email

at dweil@weilmaritime.com.

ANSWER: Our reader is correct - a review of all of the substantive and procedural laws and rules unique to maritime law would require a large textbook and a semester class in law school. But we field a lot of questions from readers of this column, and certain aspects of maritime law do seem to be particularly confusing to boat owners. This confusion usually relates to mistaken assumptions about the differences between maritime law and “regular” civil law. Let’s take a look at some of the mistaken assumptions that we see on a regular basis.

IN MEMORIAM: SUSAN JEWITT COLBY Susan Jewitt Colby, a long-time editor, photojournalist, and contributor to boating publications and websites world-wide, passed away Sunday, March 20, at the age of 73 in her beloved home country, South Africa. Colby had previously resided and worked throughout the US West Coast, including San Diego, Costa Mesa, the Bay Area, and the Pacific Northwest.

Colby turned her passion for adventure into a career including editor of The Log Newspaper from 1995 to 1997, Dockside and Harbors Magazine, and senior editor at Ecology.com network.

Notably, Colby was the lead content producer on one of the first tech startups, Quokka Sports, to cover sports on the web. This led her to direct the creation of the first virtual and total immersion yacht race, the 1997-98 Whitbread Round the World Race. Also, a skilled photographer, Colby’s photos often graced the covers of leading sailing and cruising magazines.

Susan’s love of the sea started young when she hopped aboard a sailing yacht in her late teens and ventured around the world with the wind at her back.

After that she never stopped exploring, conquering, and enjoying life.

“I had just arrived on Raiatea aboard Vadura, the 90’ ketch I sailed on from New Guinea,” said Susan while reflecting on herself at 19 years old. “I was celebrating and dancing in the copra shed on the old dock and the crew tried to teach me to tāmūrē! We left the following day for Papeete where we stayed at Marlon Brando’s house for a couple of weeks, and then I went back to Raiatea to sail Seedrache to Hawaii, then on to San Francisco and beyond.”

Nearly five decades later, she returned to the warm breezes of Tahiti on a charter. After a swimming expedition with sharks and rays, Susan jumped up and began dancing the tāmūrē when an old Te pāpā ‘u (grandpa) began strumming his ukulele. Indeed, Susan was known for her joie de vivre, sense of adventure, and self-proclaimed ‘inappro-

priate’ life.

When faced with her most recent challenge, a cancer diagnosis, she braved it head-on with her customary courage, positivity, and strength. But in the end, this was one challenge she couldn’t overcome.

Susan is survived by her sons, Ryan and Cody, her beloved “boys” (grandsons) Oliver and Everett, and a multitude of friends and loved ones who will miss the light and laughter she brought to this world.

A gathering to celebrate her life will be held in mid-July in Dana Point, Calif.

meanings, but today they are used interchangeably. Admiralty or maritime law is simply a set of legal rules, concepts, and processes that relate to navigation and commerce by water. The body of maritime law applied today can trace its roots back hundreds of years to the establishment of laws by early Egyptians, Phoenicians, and Greeks to govern commerce in the Mediterranean Sea. Similarly, the application of modern maritime law is focused on maritime commerce, but since recreational boating has been held by courts to have an impact on maritime commerce, most maritime law principles also apply to recreational boating. Legal principles that work for big ships can produce odd results when applied to a case involving a 30-foot sailboat, but that is nonetheless the legal umbrella under which that case would proceed.

Notwithstanding the applicability of federal admiralty law to recreational boating, a lot of the legal issues that confront boat owners will be determined by the law of the state in which the incident occurred. For example, a dispute arising from the sale of a boat would seem to have an impact on maritime commerce, but a dispute concerning the ownership of a vessel could involve a buyer and seller who are each located thousands of miles from the vessel. The dispute therefore does not have any physical effect on the vessel itself and it would therefore be decided under state law

Consumer Protection Laws for Marina Tenants This is probably the area with the most confusion among boat owners. There are no statutes or regulations or tenant protection laws in California, or under Federal law, that specifically apply to a slip rental agreement. Most of the statutes that provide protection to renters in California are set forth in sections 1940 through 1954 of the California Civil Code. But section 1940 specifically limits those protections to persons who rent “dwelling units” in California. Dwelling units are then defined as a structure on real property.

A boat is not a structure on real property. More to the point, a boat slip is not a structure on real property. Marina tenants who live aboard their boat are not renting their home. In fact, they own their home, and they are renting place to park it. Slip rental agreements are month-tomonth commercial contracts for the rental of a patch of water with an adjacent dock to use as a parking space. Month to month agreements may be terminated or modified - by either party - on 30 days’ notice.

Repairperson Licensing There is no California consumer agency to regulate or oversee boat repairs and there is no such thing as a repairman being in good – or bad - standing. Boat repair people are not required to be licensed by any California agency (except for regulations related to air and water pollution).

Repair people are subject to California statutes that effect your right as a consumer to sue or be sued by a boat

repairman (California Harbors & Navigation Code sections 410 through 418).

These statutes apply only to DMV registered vessels, and they have no effect at all on US Coast Guard documented vessels.

Nonetheless, a lawsuit against a repairman for a problem arising from work on a Coast Guard documented vessel would be very similar to a lawsuit involving a California registered vessel. Talk to your attorney for more information on this.

Marine Surveyor Licensing Marine surveyors are not licensed or regulated by any government agency.

There is no licensing requirement, and anyone with a voltmeter and a ball-peen hammer can hang up a sign tomorrow and call himself a surveyor. A surveyor who promotes himself as a licensed captain is simply using the license as a marketing tool, since the Coast Guard has no jurisdiction over his or her duties as a surveyor. It’s like showing your FAA pilot’s license to get a job as a truck driver.

The maritime community has its own tools for setting standards of competency for marine surveyors. Surveyors rely heavily on referrals from lenders and yacht brokers for pre-purchase inspections, and assignments from insurance companies to investigate claims. A surveyor’s membership in an industry trade group may provide more insight into their qualifications. Many qualified surveyors belong to either the National Association of Marine Surveyors (“NAMS”) or the Society of Accredited Marine Surveyors (“SAMS”).

These trade groups will designate their members as “Certified” (through NAMS), or “Accredited” (through SAMS). This is not a form of government oversight but membership in these organizations can provide some assurance as to the surveyor’s qualifications.

Lemon Law As the buyer of a “consumer good,” a buyer of a new boat in California is protected by a body of law known as the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act (California Civil Code sec. 1790). The Song-Beverly Act enforces manufacturers’ warranties on all consumer goods sold in California. It covers everything from computers to refrigerators, and it does cover the purchase of a new boat.

Under this law, a manufacturer who fails to fix a problem under warranty after a “reasonable number of attempts” must either replace the product or reimburse the buyer for the purchase price, less an amount for depreciation. Failure to comply with the law will subject the manufacturer to strict penalties.

The Song-Beverly Act has one glaring problem for the buyer of a new boat: It fails to consider that a boat is a complicated machine, with a long list of complex systems that may be subject to failure. A manufacturer will be in compliance with the Song-Beverly Act if it repairs each of those failed systems within a “reasonable time,” notwithstanding that it may have deprived the owner of the use of the boat for many months of accumulated down time during the repairs. Song-Beverly may work fine for a toaster or a television, but it does not adequately protect the buyer of a new boat.

In contrast, new car buyers are in a

much better position. California’s “Lemon Law” is set forth in the Tanner Consumer Protection Act (Civil Code sec. 1793.22), and the scope of the law is expressly limited to “new motor vehicles.” The Tanner Act offers a number of protections to the buyer of a new car, including a requirement that the manufacturer replace the car or refund the purchase price if, during the first 18 months or 18,000 miles, the car is out of service due to warranty repairs for a cumulative total of more than 30 calendar days. A new car buyer would therefore be protected under the scenario described above, where each individual problem is repaired but the cumulative effect of all the repairs amounts to months of down time. Further, under the Tanner Act the new car buyer is entitled to a refund of the full purchase price without any deduction for depreciation.

Once again, we, as boat owners, are on our own.

Vessel Documentation Services versus Real Estate Title and Escrow Services Marine title companies provide services to the yachting community throughout the country, but the names of these businesses may be confusing to consumers who are accustomed to real estate transactions. When we purchase a home, our title company usually provides “one stop shopping” for all of our title and documentation needs. They conduct a title search, they prepare and record the deeds and mortgages, they escrow funds, and they sell title insurance.

Marine title companies are more accurately referred to as vessel documentation services. They are very effective at navigating complicated vessel documentation requirements for state, federal and international transactions. However, they are rarely authorized to escrow funds, they usually decline to offer a legal opinion regarding a vessel’s ownership and lien history, and they never offer title insurance. Qualified firms around the country that provide vessel documentation services are generally members of the American Vessel Documentation Association (americanvessel.com).

How to “Lien a Boat” - Lien recording and Lien Foreclosure Maritime lien recording and enforcement procedures differ considerably from their land-based counterparts. Let’s start with the fact that there is no procedure to

“lien a boat” and recording a lien with the Coast Guard has almost no legal effect.

A lien is a financial security device that provides collateral to secure payment of an obligation. Regardless of the nature of the particular lien, the question of whether a lien is valid depends on whether various requirements have been met, all separate from the question of whether the money is actually owed. For maritime liens, the underlying claim must be something that provides a service or benefit to the vessel (rather than to the owner), and that service must have been requested by the owner or the owner’s representative.

The lien recording process is the area where maritime liens differ most significantly with land-based liens. The instrument that may be recorded with the Coast Guard is referred to as a Notice of Claim of Lien (NCL). It is, as the name implies, a notice to the world that somebody claims to have a lien. This may be helpful as an economical enforcement tool since a prospective buyer would want the claim satisfied if he or she discovers the NCL on the boats title history. But this “notice” is not a lien, and the recording of a NCL has absolutely no legal effect.

A maritime lien – assuming it meets the requirements of a lien noted above – is automatically perfected without recording anything anywhere. So, there is no need to “lien a boat.” The recording of a NCL is entirely optional, and the Coast Guard expressly warns that their acceptance of a NCL for recording provides no evidence one way or another about the validity of the claim. Validity is established and the lien is enforced through a complicated and expensive procedure that requires the filing of a lawsuit in Federal Court and a “civil arrest” of the vessel by the U.S. Marshals.

Birds can lose their feathers’ waterproof ability when they swim through the red tide and foam. As a result, this species of red tide has the potential to harm many of Orange County’s local sea birds, like the brown pelican or western gulls. It can also be harmful to dogs who encounter it while at the beach.

The Wetlands and Wildlife Care Center in Huntington Beach are on standby if they have to take in birds.

McGuire says if they do, the birds will have to be rinsed and washed to start recovering.

Frigatebirds Jacques Cousteau, the famous nautical explorer, was first lured to this volcanic speck 40 years ago, when he and his crew, aboard their research vessel Calypso, came to study and film the unusual mating habits of the island’s huge and majestic frigatebirds (Fregatidae).

Mariners crossing the South Pacific had long told tales of the magnificent Frigatebirds and their long-distance flying abilities.

In colloquial Spanish, both male and female frigatebirds are called “Ave Tijera” or scissors birds, because while maneuvering in flight they deeply fork their huge tail feathers like an open pair of scissors.

It’s hard to tell when you’re looking up, but it has a seven-and-a-half-foot wingspan, and relative to its body weight, it has the largest wing-surface area of any bird on earth. Surprisingly, this sea bird can’t swim; it can’t even land on water or its water-logged feathers would soon drown it.

But at Isla Isabel, Cousteau focused on how frigatebirds lived and loved on land.

During mating season the male attempts to attract a mate by inflating his throat sack into a huge brilliantly red balloon that he swings around brashly, a

Kim Paulsen photo

Yes, blue-footed boobies are a real thing.

So are scissors birds, well, actually frigatebirds.

Mexico boaters will encounter both of these unusual avian species at Isla Isabel, a tiny island 15 miles off the low-lying coast of Nayarit state.

Isla Isabel is a National Park, Biosphere Reserve, and wildlife sanctuary protected by park rangers, so bring your SEMARNAT passports.

Boaters can usually anchor in one of two places and launch the dinghy to go ashore to hike the trails and see the abundant wildlife. Thirty visitors are allowed on shore at a time, but no pets. Pangueros keep seasonal huts above the south end beach.

Isla Isabela (about a mile-long and 314 feet high) has no services for visitors and is a fair-weather-only anchorage, so be ready to up anchor and move on if conditions require. It’s best to think of Isla Isabel as a fantastic stepping stone while coastal cruising, not a long-term stay.

Two popular spots to drop the hook are, inside or just outside the small South Cove, which has rocks but generally better holding, or you may anchor almost all the way around Las Moňas, the two 200-foot-tall rock spires rising off the island’s southeast side. The sand bottom here is generally thin over slippery rock.

Moňas means mannequins or dress-maker forms.

As you’re coastal cruising down from Mazatlan, Isla Isabel lies about 85 nautical miles south-southeast. From Punta de Mita at the entrance to Banderas Bay, Isla Isabel lies about 68 nautical miles north northwest.

dramatic display against his glossy black plumage.

Further, the enamored male frigatebird uses his long-hooked bill like a drum stick to thump loudly on his red balloon - perhaps to serenade a potential mate.

Female frigatebirds are larger than males, distinguishable by their white chest feathers and brownish bodies. On Isla Isabel, both mates work together to build their rather crude brooding nest in the island’s stubby trees only 10 to 15 feet high.

Two deputies were placed in the harbor using discretionary funds from previous supervisors. The deputies focus on quality-of-life issues in the marina.

By: JORDAN B. DARLING MARINA DEL REY— On April 22, marina

lessees in Marina del Rey were informed

by Captain Chris Johnson from the Marina del Rey Sheriff ’s Station that Supervisor Holly Mitchell would be cutting discretionary funding for two patrol officers in the area.

The two extra patrol officers have been funded through discretionary funding from previous supervisors, including Supervisor Janice Hahn. She added a second deputy to the position in 2019 after prompting from business leaders who wanted the extra presence in the marina.

After the redistricting in 2021, Mitchell, supervisor for District 2, took over for Hahn in Marina del Rey. Mitchell also covers El Segundo, Hermosa Beach, Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach, Carson, Compton, several unin-

corporated communities, and neighborhoods throughout Los Angeles.

There has not been an official reason released for cutting the discretionary funding. However, Johnson’s best guess is the expense of the deputies, estimated to be $240,000 per deputy, and the county’s commitment to “Care First, Jail Last,” an initiative aimed at relocating resources from local law enforcement agencies to rehabilitation services.

In April, Johnson received information from the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department that Mitchell planned not to renew the two contracts for the additional patrol deputies in the area for the fiscal year 2023.

“They [the Sheriff ’s Department] were getting ready to redo the contracts here, and they reached out to supervisor Mitchell’s office and asked them if they were going to continue to fund these two positions, and I guess the answer was no,” said Johnson.

The two deputies are a patrol unit who do not take calls but focus on quality-of-life issues and preventative measures in the marina.

“Often times, the patrol guys are busy on other calls,” said Johnson. “These guys don’t get calls; they just kind of roam the marina looking for issues or people who might need help. They also address issues for people suffering from mental illness.”

Marina del Rey Could Lose Funding for Additional Patrol Deputies

The proposed cut will happen at the end of the 2022 fiscal year, and the deputies will be placed back into the normal patrol rotation.

The deputies often work with the homeless population in Marina del Rey. The deputies are tasked with reaching out to mental health services, crisis prevention, and addressing homeless encampments.

Johnson is set to meet with Mitchell on May 20 to discuss the proposed funding cut and hopes to bring Mitchell around to the idea of extra patrol officers in Marina del Rey. “I look forward to talking with them

because I think if I give them an explanation of certain things and I explain the history and the purpose and how the community feels, I think they could change their mind,” said Johnson. “I am hoping they do because I think if we take those deputies away, it could have a heavy impact on the community here.”

Mitchell was unavailable for comment at this time.

By: KATHERINE M. CLEMENTS DAVIS — In a study released on April 26

by The University of California, Davis, in the journal Scientific Report, the research found microplastics are a pathway for pathogens on land to reach the ocean, with likely consequences for humans and wildlife health.

The study is the first to connect microplastics in the ocean with land-based pathogens. It found microplastics can make it easier for disease-causing pathogens to concentrate in plastic-contaminated areas of the ocean.

Throughout the study, researchers were able to show parasites were concentrating on microbeads and microfibers, by placing parasites and plastics together in seawater, incubating it for several days, and then counting parasites on the plastics and those still suspended in the seawater.

The pathogens studied -- Toxoplasma gondii, Cryptosporidium (Crypto), and Giardia -- can infect both humans and animals. They are recognized by the World Health Organization as underestimated causes of illness from shellfish consumption and are found throughout the ocean.

“The zoonotic protozoan pathogens that we investigated are widespread and have been previously detected in shellfish in many countries,” said corresponding author Karen Shapiro in the study, an infectious disease expert and associate professor at the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine.

Giardia and Crypto mainly cause gastrointestinal diseases such as diarrhea; however, they can prove deadly in very young children and in the immunocompromised (Crypto is more dangerous than Giardia in that sense).

Toxoplasma is an interesting parasite that primarily causes asymptomatic infections in animals and people but can also be deadly.

“We are specifically concerned about pregnant women who become exposed for the first time to Toxo [through ocean water and or consuming infected seafood], where the parasite can infect the developing baby and cause miscarriage, abortions, or lifelong illness, if the baby survives, with a disease called congenital toxoplasmosis,” said Shapiro.

In addition, people with weakened immune systems (for example, those undergoing chemo treatment or those suffering from AIDA) can also develop a deadly systemic illness.

“We are also concerned about Toxo in endangered wildlife,” said Shapiro. “For example, here in California, Toxo kills threatened California sea otters, and the parasite is also a significant cause of death in critically endangered Hawaiian Monk Seals in Hawaii and Maui Dolphins in New Zealand. “ It is essential to note that these experiments were conducted in small bottles in a highly controlled lab environment.

“We have not conducted field studies yet to sample plastics to evaluate the presence of protozoan parasites on their surfaces in the ‘real world,’” said Shapiro.

“In that sense, our study was the first step to testing for this association as a preliminary trial showing that the association between parasites and plastics is possible and can be quite significant under the conditions tested. In terms of how they encounter each other in the marine environment, these pollutants [pathogens and plastics] occur in the same water bodies and coastal waters. I suspect that the probability of these two particle types encountering each other depends on many factors, including their respective concentrations, water currents, and turbulence in the system.”

A human and animal problem: Microplastics are tiny plastic particles smaller than 5 millimeters, no bigger than a grain of rice. They’ve contaminated waters as remote as Antarctica. The study’s findings indicate that by hitchhiking on microplastics, pathogens can disperse throughout the ocean, reaching places a land parasite would typically never be found.

T. gondii, a parasite found only in cat feces, has infected many ocean species with the disease toxoplasmosis. UC Davis and its partners have a long history of research connecting the parasite to sea otter deaths. Unfortunately, it has also killed critically endangered wildlife, including Hector›s dolphins and Hawaiian monk seals. In people, toxoplasmosis can cause life-long illnesses and developmental and reproductive disorders.

Crypto and giardia cause gastrointestinal disease and can be deadly in young children and immunocompromised people.

“This is very much a problem that affects both humans and animals,” said first author Emma Zhang, a fourth-year veterinary student with the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine. “It highlights the importance of a One Health approach that requires collaboration across human, wildlife, and environmental disciplines. We all depend on the ocean environment.”

Microbeads and microfibers: For the purpose of the study, the authors conducted laboratory experiments to test whether the selected pathogens can associate with plastics in seawater.

The authors used two different types of microplastics: polyethylene microbeads and polyester microfibers. Microbe-

Genotyping Shows High Return Rate for White Sea Bass Hatchery

Hubbs SeaWorld Research Institute

By: JORDAN B. DARLING

CARLSBAD — Hubbs SeaWorld Research

Institute released results of a study using genetic marking to identify the success of fish-stocking efforts from Southern California’s Ocean Resources Enhancement and Hatchery Program for white sea bass. The study shows the program makes a more significant contribution to the sea bass population than was previously thought.

The study shows that out of two control groups of fish, 597 juveniles and 43 legal-sized adults, 46.2 percent of fish were identified as hatchery fish in the juvenile group, and 30.2 percent of adult fish were identified as hatchery stock.

In 2017 a report by California Sea Grant, commissioned by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife suggested that fish from the hatchery accounted for less than one percent of white sea bass in the fishery.

In the previous study, the fish were identified as hatchery fish using a coded wire tag implanted in the fish’s cheek. In the recent study, a research team used genetic fingerprinting rather than the traditional tagging method to test the control groups.

“It has stimulated an incredible amount of interest and excitement because we’ve been looking at coded wire tag information for years as we surveyed the different landings and markets for adult fish,” said Mark Drawbridge, senior research scientist at Hubbs SeaWorld Research Institute. “[The] return rate has been low, and I want to say about 1

So that is less than one percent, so obviously, that has been discouraging for everyone involved in the program, and we have been trying to figure out different ways to improve that and fix that and certainly get it up into the several percent… And now looking at these new numbers, this new tagging technology it has kind of turned things upside down the potential in the overall efficacy of the program, so it is incredibly exciting in that regard.”

The study is a collaborative effort with the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources, which also runs a stocking, enhancement, and replenishing program with several different marine fish on the East Coast.

The research team uses a genetic marking process on twelve different marine fish species throughout five different states to track the success of their fisheries; traditionally, fisheries use other measures like the coded wire tag used by the OREHP on the white sea bass.

Using the genetic markers, the hatchery has shown an estimated 30 percent return on adult-sized sea bass.

would be interested in working with OREHP. “It’s a project we initiated about four years ago, so it’s been a while in the making, and it is a complicated project, so it has taken a while just to get these preliminary results,” said Drawbridge. “So, basically, I have some connections on the East Coast. The group that we worked with on this project, that was instrumental, is a research team from [the] South Carolina Department of Natural Resources.”

To start the project, Drawbridge and his team sent almost 600 genetic samples they had archived from the original broodfish in 1995. Then, the South Carolina team genotyped the fish and essentially created a fingerprint for each adult fish.

“With the resolution of those fingerprints when we send them a sample from a white sea bass collected out in the ocean…,” said Drawbridge. “All you need is a clip from the fin, and we can send it to them, and they can tell us if it came from the hatchery. And specifically, from the breeding fish, they were able to genotype.”

SCDNR has worked with the genetic-marker methodology for over 20 years and has achieved a 99.99 percent confidence level to distinguish between hatchery-reared and wild fish in this study.

There were 713 juvenile fish sent to South Carolina, and they were successfully able to genotype 597 fish. Out of those fish, 276 fish were reported to have come from the hatchery. This makes a 46.2 percent return rate. However, when the fish were captured, they were also scanned for the coded wire tag, which only 7.4 percent of the fish had.

There were 50 adult-sized fish sent to South Carolina; of those, 43 were successfully genotyped, and 13 had a genetic hatchery signature meaning 30 percent of the sample group were viable in Southern California hatcheries.

“Based on those numbers, a lot more hatchery fish swimming around in the ocean than those coded wire tags would lead you to believe,” said Drawbridge.

Drawbridge said there is more to come to analyze the contribution of hatcheries, and the next steps are uncovering the mystery of the coded wire tags.

S A N F R A N C I S C O — Ryan Finn, an

A mer ic a n sa i lor, pu l led int o Sa n Francisco on April 22 after a harrowing journey that took him from New York around the Cape Horn and up the west coast in a small single crew multihull sailboat. Finn has broken the record for the smallest vessel to complete the voyage, although he intended to be the fastest.

Finn departed on Jan. 19 from the Miramar Yacht Club in Brooklyn, New York, to execute his second attempt at setting the fastest non-stop solo-sailing record in America.

This is Finn’s second attempt at the record, the first one ending quickly after 24 hours when his boat faced hull damage.

Although he missed the solo speed record, he achieved an extraordinary victory in the world of sailing and ocean sport, setting the record for the smallest vessel to complete the journey.

“I thought, what kind of record would an American sailor be able to do that would be of significance for the singlehanded community because basically, the French have all the major records for solo sailing,” said Finn. “The French get a lot of publicity; I can’t compete with them because their sponsorship level is so much higher…So as proof of concept, I thought, well, maybe I can do around the world, non-stop, east to west; the upwind record.”

Finn considered what type of boat could go upwind for his estimated 71day journey. Finn’s record attempt was aboard the smallest boat to ever undertake the route, an adjustment Finn made from his first attempt to help sail faster.

Finn sailed a Russel Brown, designed and built, 36-foot Proa Jzerro, named Jzerro. The boat’s design is modeled after ancient technology used by Pacific Islanders, known for its efficiency, speed, and reliability. A Proa is the oldest type of multihull and also the one least embraced by the mainstream western sailing community. Finn wanted to prove the viability of this type of sailing vessel for ocean sailing records.

“Ryan’s choice of boat for his record attempt is remarkable,” said Russel Brown in an interview with Sail-World. “It’s the same at both ends, has one outrigger, and is very fast. Jzerro is a proa. Proas trade side-to-side symmetry for end-toend symmetry. The boat only needs one outrigger, but tacking involves changing ends [the bow becomes the stern]. There is a windward and leeward side but no port and starboard side on a proa.

Proas are as different as different can possibly be, but Ryan has made history in one. Ryan’s Jzerro is tiny and lightly built, yet he has proven that proas have the potential to be very fast and seaworthy. Ryan’s tenacity aside, many people are in awe of Jzerro’s performance.”

“So, I thought, well, something smaller like a multihull could do it, but what kind of a multihull could take that kind of a beating,” said Finn. “And I ended up with the Proa; I think a Proa could handle it better than a catamaran. It was a smaller Proa, like really small, actually quite too small of a Proa to do the New York to San Francisco record, but I did it.”

At 36 feet and 3,200 pounds, Jzerro is the smallest and lightest boat to complete the New York to San Francisco course singlehanded and the fastest sailboat under 40 feet to complete the voyage.

Finn covered more than 14,000 nautical miles heading south through Bermuda, into Brazil, and around Cape Horn in Chile, some of the most treacherous sailing terrains in the world, before passing Clipperton Island on his way up to San Francisco. Although he faced many challenges and had to forfeit 13 days to stop for repairs and spare parts in Bra-

By: KATHERINE M. CLEMENTS WA S H I N G T O N — On April 27, the

Department of the Interior announced the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) will publish two separate Calls for Information and Nominations for possible leasing in areas determined to be suitable off the coast of Oregon and in the Central Atlantic.

A Call for Information and Nominations (Call) represents an important early opportunity for BOEM to obtain information from and engage with ocean users and stakeholders as the bureau seeks to identify areas of least conflict for offshore wind development.

“More specifically, a Call will help BOEM gather information to identify (1) the areas where offshore wind development may be safely and responsibly developed, (2) other uses of the area, and (3) environmentally sensitive or other areas that should be excluded from development or otherwise protected, “said Lissa Eng, the Public Affairs Specialist for BOEM in an email from May 9.

“A Call will also help BOEM determine competitive interest in offshore development. A Call does not mean that BOEM will ultimately grant a lease for a particular area. Rather, it indicates that the area described may be subject to future leasing.”

The offshore wind energy development has the potential to create good-paying, union jobs, and related economic benefits. According to a recent report, the nation’s growing offshore wind energy industry presents a $109 billion revenue opportunity to U.S. businesses over the next decade. In addition, achieving the Administration’s goal to deploy 30 GW of offshore wind capacity by 2030 could create almost 80,000 jobs.

Thank to solid partnerships with states and industry to spur investment in a domestic supply chain, these economic opportunities are becoming a reality, including: a first-of-its-kind wind energy port in New Jersey, a Jones Act-compliant offshore wind installation vessel in Texas, the first offshore wind turbine blade facility in Virginia, and the first submarine cable manufacturing plant in South Carolina.

On May 8, Secretary Haaland and BOEM Director Amanda Lefton participated in a signing ceremony to celebrate a groundbreaking project labor agreement between North America’s Building Trades Union (NABTU) and Ørsted North America. This agreement – titled the National Offshore Wind Agreement

– is the first of its kind overarching agreement in the U.S. It will encompass all Ørsted projects, the largest leaseholder, from Maine to Florida, up and down the Atlantic Coast.

The agreement will develop offshore wind-specific training programs and establish a separate Offshore Workforce Equity Fund to support programs that offer training and services to women, people of color, and environmentally disadvantaged people looking to work in the offshore wind industry.

This will serve as a model for future offshore agreements between offshore wind developers and Offshore wind farms have many of the same advantages as land-based wind farms. They provide renewable energy; they do not consume water; they provide a domestic energy contractors.

By: KATHERINE M. CLEMENTS SAN PEDRO — Beginning in the early 1940s, 3,000 first and second-generation Japanese made their homes in an area of Terminal Island known as East San Pedro. The Japanese Fishing Village was next to Fish Harbor, and many of the locals worked in the fishing industry. When a dozen Japanese fishermen settled on Terminal Island at the turn of the twentieth century, it was still a rural stretch of land with around 200 homes.

Originally known as Rattlesnake Island due to the snakes that would gather after torrential storms, it had recently been renamed after its new owner, the Los Angeles Terminal Railway.

Approximately 250 fishing boats were owned and operated by the residents. Most of the local people, not working on the boats, worked in the many fish canneries clustered together on Terminal Island. Because Terminal Island was somewhat isolated, the islanders developed their own culture and even their own dialect. The people called their close community village “Furusato,” which translated to “old village.” An English equivalent would be “hometown,” “native place,” or “home sweet home.”

The village had a Fisherman’s Hall where the Japanese martial arts judo and kendo were taught, a Shinto Shrine, ethnic grocery stores, candy stores, and billiard parlors. Children attended

Walizer Elementary School and took the ferry to high school at San Pedro High School.

December 7, 1941, changed Terminal Island forever. After the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the FBI immediately took all the non-native Japanese fishers and community leaders into custody, and all traffic to and from the island was suspended. Only some men were released; the others were reunited with their families only later, at detention centers. The women and children were left to fend for themselves financially, leaving many families in dire straits for months.

Then, on Feb. 19, 1942, U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066. The order sent 120,000 Japanese Americans to internment camps. Of the ethnic Japanese people forced into internment camps, about 62 percent were Nisei and Sansei (2nd and 3rd generation Japanese) and were natural-born American citizens. The other 38 percent were Issei (Japanese immigrants) who were either naturalized American citizens or resident aliens.

In February of 1942, Terminal Island residents were the first Japanese Americans on the West Coast to be forcibly removed from their homes.

They were forced to evacuate their homes within 48 hours and had to leave almost all of their possessions behind, including all of their fishing boats and

gear. Nevertheless, some were able to sell their furniture, fishing gear, boats, and other items. Unfortunately, since the residents only had 48 hours to complete the transactions, they were often forced to sell at meager prices.

On Feb. 27, 1942, The Daily Breeze reported that all civilians were forced to leave the island as the military took over.

The Japanese Village was stripped of anything of value and flattened by bulldozers, and destroyed. The fishing boats were either taken by the military, repossessed, stolen, or destroyed.

The exclusion order was rescinded on Jan. 2, 1945; internees were released with $25 and a ticket home.

They returned home to find nothing; Furusato was gone without a trace. The

canneries were still operating, and a few people returned to work. The rest of the former residents were scattered.

The former Japanese villagers were worried the memory, culture, and history of Furusato would be lost forever.

Nevertheless, they stayed in touch and tried to keep the memories alive.

In 1971, they formed the Terminal Islanders Club. Since its formation, the members have coordinated reunions, golf games, picnics, and other activities.

However, now in their 80s, the Nisei worry about the future of the various events for the members. Therefore, in 2002, the surviving second-generation citizens set up a memorial on Terminal Island to honor their Issei parents and to preserve the memory of their Furusato, their “Home Sweet Home.”

Boats mix it up and jockey for position for the start of PHRF-UL-A and UL-Maxi. John Raymont’s Ker51M Fast Exit II (BYC) is to the left and Good Energy, George Hershman/ Mark Comings RP/63 (CBYC) is on the right. Coming right at us is the winner of the BEST ORR Overall Trophy - LBYC’s Doug Baker’s Peligroso, a Kernan 68.

By: KATHERINE M. CLEMENTS ENSENADA, MEXICO — April 22 kicked off the 75th Newport to Ensenada Races.

Weather reports for the April 22 start accurately predicted windy and wavy conditions. Many racers on all three courses took on Mother Nature in an epic showdown; most reported personal best times, numerous records, and came ashore with tales of blustery sailing adventures.

Rio100, a custom Bakewell White, and its crew, led by owner Manouch Moshayedi, set a new N2E elapsed time record for a monohull at 7:02:17. In addition, six out of seven boats in the Maxi Class clocked in faster than the previous record set in 2016. George Hershman and Mark Coming’s Good Energy, a Reichel Pugh 63, sistership to former record-holder Aszhous, arrived second at 8.32.49, shaving 1:02:45 off the old record.

Despite missing the record by four minutes, Saga’s finish time of 9:39.01 earned the TP52 a trip to the podium to claim PHRF UL-Maxi class honors. With a corrected time of 12:31:13, owner John Brynjolffson earned the Amigo Trophy for the fasted corrected time for a first-

time N2E skipper.

Bill Gibbs Wahoo, whose arrival at 9:23:19 was slightly ahead of Fast Exit (9:29:00) and Zephyrus (9:29:59), set multiple personal bests aboard his Schionning GF 1400 Catamaran. Not only did NOSA’s Staff Commodore sweep the top three trophies, but he did so for the fifth time.

In 2004, 2010, and 2013 Gibbs and a crew of friends collected the coveted Tommy Bahama Trophy for Best Corrected Overall with Afterburner, a 1987 52-foot Tennant Bladerunner-designed catamaran. He returned to the podium in 2016 after Wahoo’s inaugural N2E on the Schionning, which he modestly refers to as a lightweight cruising boat.

“My boat lights up at 20 knots of wind,” said Gibbs in an N2E press release from April 25. “This was the best wind of my 21 N2E races, by far. But you have to do all the races in order to be there for the special ones like this.”

Despit e blow ing out a spinnaker off San Diego, the crew bested Wahoo’s previous record by 90 minutes. In addition, it was reported that Wahoo got to sail in optimal conditions for much of the race, under 25 knots, TWS sailing

“Thanks to my great crew without whom this would not have been possible,” said Gibbs.

Sailing back to the podium, Gibbs also collected the Stern Choy Trophy for Best Corrected – Catamaran, the Alice Pursell

Gibbs will have his name etched 31 times onto five N2E trophies.

If You Can’t Take the Heat, Get Out of The Galley Part 1 Ahoy Sailors, now that you’ve learned how to anchor your vessel, let’s talk about the best ways to keep your galley organized, stable, and safe, so while you’re anchored you can make your meals. This will be a two-part lesson. Lesson one being the best way to achieve functionality of your galley, and the second lesson being boat galley safety features; stay tuned.

By: KATHERINE M. CLEMENTS

Whether setting out to travel the globe or just planning a long weekend across the bay, a functioning, secure, and wellstocked galley is the key to keeping your belly full, “hangry” sailors at bay, and your sanity in check.

Even the largest boats often have fractional galleys to what you would find in the average home. The lack of space, coupled with the constant movement, tropical nuisances, and limited power, could make the galley your worst nightmare.

However, with a few essential tips and some thoughtful planning, you can avoid many common mistakes and start whipping up delicious creations in no time.

Here are tips to keep your galley secured and functional while fully stocked.

The Boat Galley Boat galleys vary in a ton of different ways. Size, layout, storage, proximity –

N2E

From page 20

Standish Fleming’s Nereid, a classic 1999 J125, also reported extraordinary conditions; the fastest breeze of any race he’s done.

“We were 30 miles south of the Coronado Islands before dark!” said Fleming.

“That’s unheard of; incredible.”

A lthough this wa s Nereid’s first N2E, having purchased it in only 2019, Nerid took home the City of Newport Beach Trophy for best UL-B class at the start of N2E 2022.

This win was notable because Fleming took home the President of USA Trophy for Best Corrected – All PHRF, but it was crewmember John Shampain’s

the list goes on. Each boat will require a slightly different setup than the next, but certain features are beneficial.

Boat Galley Location From cooking and cleaning to remaining mobile and social, the location of a galley can dramatically impact your culinary experience at sea. The galley should be accessible from both the cockpit and saloon, well ventilated, and in an area that is less prone to boat roll than other areas. Placement at the foot of the boat’s companionway is ideal, as it satisfies the three considerations mentioned above. Those with multiple roles on the ship will enjoy this location as they make trips above and below deck. Each boat will have a different setup, so be sure to consider the specifics for you and your crew. What works for some will be less than ideal for others.

Gimballed Boat Appliances

Double-Basin Sink

A gimbal is a single-axis support system on which objects pivot to stay level, even when their surroundings are not.

Having gimbaled boat appliances is essential to cooking safely, especially when making long passages in inclement weather. The most common boat appliance to mount on a gimbal is a stove and oven. Gimballed boat appliances are lockable when not in use, so you can use the equipment as usual when at anchor or docked in the marina.

While this is a subjective opinion, many offshore cruisers prefer to equip their boat’s galley with a deep, double-basin sink. Deeper basins offer a few advantages. The main advantage is to soak your dishes without worrying about water overflowing when the boat rolls. However, if you’re only cooking for a few people, you can manage this with a shallow sink as well. The selling point for most is the double basins. You can use one for washing and draining with two basins while the other serves as a soaking station.

After all, efficiency is the game’s name in such a small and limited cooking space.

If you aren’t using one of the basins, you can increase your counter space by placing a fitted cutting board or surface over the second basin. Depending on the meal, you may require more space or an assistant in the kitchen.

Silicone is Your Friend Silicone is the new “it” girl. They make several products now out of silicone that are perfect for space-saving in the galley.

From collapsible mixing bowls and measuring cups to cookie sheets and pot lids that don’t make a sound. It is durable and flexible, but silicon is easy to clean, heat resistant, and affordable. Plus, they make them in great colors and funky patterns, making them both functional and stylish.

Plus, when your sailboat hits rough waters, silicon doesn’t shatter when it falls from the cabinet (which is also preventable).

Logical Refrigeration Placement

The shape and layout of your space will dictate how you set up your kitchen and arrange your boat galley accessories. Three standard configurations for a boat galley exist – Linear, L-Shaped, or U-Shaped. L-Shaped and U-Shaped galleys are more commonly found on offshore cruisers, as the design provides more support and security when the boat rolls. They also keep spaces and cooking accessories nearby for a busy evening as the lead cook.

While these confined layouts are more suitable for safety and convenience, they reduce the kitchen’s overall ability to be creative. Less space means you have to be more mindful of the equipment you’re using and how many dishes you can prepare at once. It would be best if you determined your galley’s layout by evaluating how many people are on board, how often you’ll be cooking during open-water passages, and how creative a cook you are in the first place.

While modern boat galleys are becoming more logical in their design and layout, things often leave us scratching our heads when looking at older vessels. Unfortunately, one of the most common issues is the placement of refrigeration and freezer units. Due to space restrictions or simple neglect, these cooling units are often installed near engine rooms, ovens, or in areas with minimal ventilation. Place in these areas will drastically reduce energy efficiency and driveup costs for obvious reasons. Therefore, when looking to buy a used boat or renovate your existing galley, make energy efficiency a primary consideration. When designing the layout of your galley, make it your top priority to keep the refrigerator away from the engine compartment if space and layout permit (generator compartment if that’s an issue, too). The second priority would be to keep the refrigerator away from the hull and where the sun can heat it. The more it’s away from anywhere that sun will beat down on it (such as next to the companionway), the better.

fourth trip to the podium to claim top honors.

Nereid also took home the City of Newport Beach for best UL-B class and was part of the Cortez Racing Association that ended Dana Point Yacht Club’s decade-plus-long reign as the yacht club with the most entries.

Dan Rossen Problem Child, a B32, and sole crewmate Richard Whitely successfully defended their double-handed winning streak and claimed the Volvo Best Corrected Trophy for a 10th straight time. \PHRF A Class winner, David Chase of Uhambo, said they raised a code zero sail at the start and took off. The -17 time N2E sailor said their race was the fastest ever by far. It was also the first

time Uhambo, named for a South African term meaning journey, saw the Coronado Islands in daylight.

In the CRUZ classes, NOSA Director David Normandin sailed home on April 24 with a crew of highly successful sailing friends and all four trophies. Flying a SDYC burgee, the sweep was yet another

by Freedom, a Beneteau 55OC. It included the Almon Lockaby Trophy for CRUZ SPIN A, the Secretary of Foreign Relations-Mexico Trophy for Best Elapsed – Cruz, and the Beneteau Trophy for – Best Corrected Beneteau.

Andy Horning’s Day Tripper II placed third in PHRF-C, ending his multipleyear streak this year thanks to a couple of breakages in what he called a wild and woolly race. Befittingly, he was one

Boat Galley Layout

Locking Cupboard, Drawer, and Oven Latches Installing lockable latches to anything with a swinging door or a sliding drawer is the best way to prevent things from coming open during a passage. Not only are you risking breaking your kitchenware, but you’re potentially turning ordinary household items into dangerous, high-speed projectiles. These latches are cheap, easy to install, and provide peace of mind for a more relaxed journey.

Vertical Cupboard Dowels Another infinitely helpful boat galley accessory is vertical dowels, installations to keep glasses in place and prevent breakage. You can also use dowels to stack plates and bowls, although most find the best use to hold their wine glasses and beer mugs. These are an alternative option to using silicone plates and drinkware.

Wall-Mounted Racks Having wall-mounted racks in strategic locations around the galley can help the chef stay organized and uncluttered without sacrificing accessibility for items like oil and spices. If your wall rack doesn’t have a security band or horizontal dowel to keep items secure, you can easily install a bungee cord to keep things from moving around.

of the three boats that claimed the Storm Trysail Team Trophy. Horning recalled being passed on the course by Rio100, calling the experience “otherworldly and amazing.”

Peter Isler accepted the NOSA Trophy for Best Elapsed Time – Overall on behalf of Rio100 and Moshayedi.

Rio100’s record-setting crew, flying under the St. Francis Yacht Club burgee, was manned by Manouch Moshayedi, Sebastian Moshayedi, Jeff Messano (Boat Captain), Peter Isler (Navigator), Morgan Gutenkunst (Tactician), Jesse Fielding (Strategist), Matt Noble, Marco Constant, Joseph Penrod, Ethan Doyle, Giovani Morelli, James Espey, Scott Tompkins, Scott Ewing, Chris Schubert, and Don Cianto.

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA FISHING NEWS

Endangered Chinook Salmon Return to Northern California Rivers After 100 Years In a joint news release from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and the Bureau of Reclamation, it was announced that state and federal biologists had started to move threatened Chinook salmon to Clear Creek in northern California.

The creek’s colder water temperatures prompted the move, which biologists hope will better support spawning and help their eggs survive while the state is still in a drought.

Teams from CDFW and USFWS will relocate 300 adult winter-run Chinook salmon to their native habitat above Eagle Canyon Dam on North Fork Battle Creek, about 20 miles east of Cottonwood, in Shasta and Tehama counties for the first time in more than 110 years.

“This marks the first time in many years that anadromous fish have been in upper Battle Creek,” said Paul Souza, Pacific Southwest Regional Director for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. “Releasing salmon to this location is critical during this third year of drought because water temperatures are cooler, and habitat is more conducive to spawning. This action would not be possible without the support of the Battle Creek Salmon and Steelhead Restoration Projects, a collaborative effort between state, federal, and private agencies.”

By transporting the fish to cooler waters experts hope the eggs will be given a better chance of surviving through the summer.

The operation is being coordinated by Pacific Gas and Electric, which operates hydroelectric facilities on Battle Creek; the facilities and other natural barriers can prevent adult salmon from reaching the upper portions of the creek.

“PG&E recognizes the current critical situation for adult winter-run salmon this year and are pleased to be working with the agencies to coordinate our project operations where we can support a successful movement of salmon to colder

water to support this urgent action by the agencies,” said Jan Nimick, PG&E Vice President of Power Generation in the May 5 press release.

This is one of a series of actions to boost the survival of the Chinook species from drought, high temperatures, thiamine deficiency, predators, and other stressors that devastated the population the last two years in the Sacramento River below the Shasta and Keswick dams.

The transportation of the salmon builds on the “jumpstart” program, which began in 2018 with an annual release of juvenile salmon in the lower parts of the creek.

The released fish migrated to the ocean and returned as adults to spawn, demonstrating the salmon’s ability to re-establish themselves if their habitat remains cool enough for eggs to survive the summer.

FISHING NEWS UPDATES

tight lines

On April 21, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) announced two fish hatchery facilities in eastern Sierra have recently detected an outbreak of Lactococcus petauri. Lactococcus spp., a naturally occurring bacteria, is similar to Streptococcus spp. The bacterium has caused disease in freshwater and saltwater aquaculture facilities worldwide, although 2020 was the first time it was detected in California. Lactococcus spp. can cause a blood-borne illness with symptoms including anorexia, bulging eyes with hemorrhaging around the edges, lethargic or erratic swimming, darkening of the skin, swollen abdomens, and increased mortality. Infected fish may also show no signs of infection depending on several factors, including water temperature and stress.

The affected facilities – Black Rock Hatchery and Fish Springs Hatchery – usually provide fish for stocking waterways in CDFW’s Inland Deserts Region.

Unfortunately, both facilities experienced a similar outbreak of Lactococcus garvieae in 2020, which led to the euthanasia of approximately 3.2 million fish to stop the spread of the disease.

The four raceways that hold catchable fish at Black Rock Hatchery tested positive for the Lactococcus bacteria earlier in April. This accounts for approximately 120,000 trout, generally stocked throughout the fishing season. At Fish Springs Hatchery, all lots of catchable fish (about 550,000 trout) tested positive. The current outbreak is among fish that have already received one round of

vaccination.

The primary prevention method will be through the implement ation of a vaccination program.

Fish at Mojave River Hatcher y have received the immersion and injection vaccine and have remained bacteria-free. The fish that tested positive at Black Rock and Fish Springs hatcheries had only received the immersion vaccine.

Staff attempted to administer the injection vaccine this winter. However, the cold CDFW initiated a phased priority stocking plan for Eastern Sierra and Southern California.

san diego fish report BLUEFIN TUNA BITE RIGHT THROUGH BREEZY WEATHER CONDITIONS!

By Bob Vanian of 976Bite.com SAN DIEGO— The past several weeks

Provided by Bob Vanian

has brought windy weather to Southern California and Northern Baja offshore waters. But the unsettled sea conditions have not slowed the bluefin tuna fishing which continues to produce near limitto-limit fishing on fish reaching up to 265-plus pounds.



For example, we are currently in the middle of a stretch where either Small Craft Advisories or Gale Warnings have been and are still posted. The recent weather pattern has kept a lot of boats at home and has often presented anglers with challenging conditions to deal with when out on the fishing grounds. The great news is that when boats do get enough of a break in the weather to venture out onto the tuna grounds, they continue to find good bluefin fishing.



The windy weather spell has been going on for weeks and it makes me wonder if we might be going through some sort of underlying change in our weather pattern that might transition us into a cycle to bring albacore back to our local offshore waters? Wouldn’t that be fun!



The bluefin ranged in size from 15 to 265 pounds with most fish in the 25 to 40-pound range. In recent days the numbers of larger sized fish have increased reports of 100 to 180-pound bluefin thrown in the mix and even bigger fish in the 265-pound range.



The best of the bluefin fishing continues to be found during the hours of the dark with flat fall jigs, knife jigs and sinker rigged sardines working best for the night time fishing. During daylight hours, flat fall jigs, knife jigs, sinker rigged sardines, flylined sardines and Colt Snipers have been effective.

Daylight hours have also produced an occasional bluefin on the troll with recent reports of scattered bluefin troll fish caught on spreader bar rigs and cedar plugs.

 Bluefin have been found over a vast area ranging from the 9 Mile Bank on down to the offshore waters outside of Ensenada. The best fishing has been found outside of Ensenada for boats fishing around the 295 Bank, 480 Spot, 385 Spot, the Boot Bank (the bank where the 238 Spot is located) and in the deep water about half way between the Boot Bank and the Banda Bank. The recent movement of bluefin has been in towards the coast and the best recent fishing has been in the deep water about halfway between Boot Bank and Banda Bank. This has you fishing down at 60 to 65 miles, 161 to 164 degrees from Point Loma. 

Boats fishing areas within 45 miles of Point Loma are also finding bluefin

The Last Buck ran great on it’s first of the season shakedown trip and what started out as a leisurely trip to run the boat and have some fun with catching and releasing calico bass resulted in Golding catching his personal best ever white seabass of 43 pounds. Congratulations Tom! activity and are catching a few including some of the larger fish up to 180-plus pounds. The best areas have been the 230 Spot, the 371 Bank and the Upper Hidden Bank. As an example of the most recent fishing, on their last trip, San Diego out of Seaforth Sportfishing had 34 anglers on a full day trip catch 6 bluefin tuna ranging 80 to 170 pounds.

Did You Ever See a Fish Fly? — “Kamakazi flying fish at Whites Landing on Catalina Island can be found in the cockpit any morning,” said Captain Dan Payne in a June 30 email. “They have been clocked at 35 m.p.h.

If their solid cartilage forehead meets yours, an ambulance ride is in your future. Tastes like cod (cod liver oil).”

There have not been many boats fishing around Los Coronado Islands lately with most skippers choosing to fish offshore waters for bluefin tuna.

There have been a few private boater reports from Los Coronado Islands and there has been good fishing for reds, whitefish, an assortment of rockfish, pretty good numbers of calico bass, and an occasional yellowtail.



Most of the yellowtail activity has been found around North Island and at the Middle Grounds. Meter marks and spots of breezing fish have produced an occasional yellowtail on sardines or iron around North Island and there have been a few yellowtail biting on trolled Rapalas at the Middle Grounds.



Yellowtail around Los Coronado Islands have ranged from 12 to 25 pounds. Try yo-yo iron and dropper loop fished sardines when you locate yellowtail down deep and try surface iron and flylined sardines when you locate yellows near the surface. Good choices for yo-yoed iron include Salas 6X and Salas 6X Jr. jigs in the blue and white color combination and in scrambled egg colors. Good choices for surface iron include Tady 45’s and Salas 7X lights in the blue and white color combination, mint and sardine colors.



There have been a few calico bass biting at kelp bed areas around South Island and the best zones for bottom fish species have been around the Rockpile and at hard bottom areas north and the Please see FISH REPORT, PAGE 26

northwest of North Island. A good depth range for the bottom fish fishing has been 20 to 50 fathoms.

Fishing along San Diego County’s coast has been good for a mix of calico bass, sand bass, reds, rockfish, sculpin, whitefish, and an occasional lingcod. The coastal yellowtail fishing and the halibut fishing have been slow.

The water along the coast has been warming up into the middle 60’s which has helped to improve calico bass activity in kelp bed areas. A couple of kelp bed areas that have had improving numbers of calico bass biting have been the kelp at the Green Tank at Point Loma and the kelp at the upper end of La Jolla.

There has also been some improved calico bass activity reported around the structure of the artificial reefs outside of Oceanside Harbor.

La Jolla has been the best area to try and locate yellowtail along San Diego’s coast but the yellowtail activity has yet to rebound after the showings of yellows slowed down after a drop in the water temperature that occurred a few weeks ago. The water temperature has warmed back up into the middle 60’s so anglers have reason to hope that consistent showings of yellowtail will begin sometime soon.

Areas where yellowtail tend to show in the La Jolla region are off Pacific Beach, off the upper end of La Jolla, and off Torrey Pines. A good depth to look has been 18 to 30 fathoms. Best bet once yellowtail are located has been to try surface iron or yo-yo iron. Good choices for yo-yo iron include Salas 6X Jr. and Salas 6X jigs in the blue and white color combination. Good choices for surface iron include Tady 45’s and Salas 7X lights in sardine colors, the blue and white color combination and mint.

The best areas for rockfish fishing along the coast as listed from the south to the north have been the International Reef, the hard bottom to the west of the Whistler Buoy at Point Loma, the Dropoff at Point Loma, the Point Loma Pipeline, the Green Tank, Point Loma College, The 270 to the west of Mission Bay, the upper end of La Jolla, Torrey Pines, Del Mar, Leucadia, South Carlsbad, and Box Canyon.

Halibut fishing continues to be slow with an occasional halibut being reported. In recent weeks there have been halibut caught in areas including Imperial Beach, San Diego Bay, the sandy bottom next to the structure of the Yukon Shipwreck off Mission Beach, the sandy bottom next to the sunken NEL Tower off Mission Beach, South Ponto Beach, the sandy bottom next to the Buccaneer Pipeline, and the sandy bottom next to the artificial reefs off Oceanside.

Private boater Tom Golding of Last Buck reported doing a fun shakedown trip to Catalina before venturing out on an offshore tuna adventure. Golding got to Catalina around noon with some lively sardines that he got from the San Pedro Bait Company bait receiver. They anchored up at a calico bass spot in the Salta Verde region and started catching and releasing short and legal sized calico bass and short sized barracuda.

Out of nowhere Golding said he got bit by a much larger fish that broke him off on the 20 pound test spinning outfit he was using for the calicos. Golding’s boat partner Steve Kunitake also got bit by a larger fish that was also lost. Golding decided to convert his 60 pound test jig rod outfit to fish live bait with a 60 pound fluorocarbon leader. He put out a sardine on that jig casting outfit and it did not take long to get bit and the end result was boating a 43-pound white seabass.

Golding said they fished from 12 to 3 p.m. and caught the 43-pound white seabass and also caught and released lots of calico bass and four short sized barracuda. The Last Buck ran great on it’s first of the season shakedown trip and what started out as a leisurely trip to run the boat and have some fun with catching and releasing calico bass resulted in Golding catching his personal best ever white seabass of 43 pounds. Congratulations Tom!

most people expected but the very good news is that the bluefin tuna bite has held up strong during the windy weather and has seen increased numbers of larger sized bluefin up to 265 pounds in the mix. I hope the windy weather backs off sometime soon and that you get a chance to get out on the water and enjoy the spring time fun. Keep on fishing and I hope to see you out on the water!
