The Cult of Personality: Re-envisioning Southern California Waterfronts

Will a water wheel be trawl2C ing for trash in Newport Bay? DARK BKGND

Trash skimmers might be the go-to solution when it comes to keeping our waters clean, but the city of Newport Beach might place a floating water wheel in the bay in its quest to remove marine debris. Will the floating autonomous apparatus catch on with local boaters? P. 12

Local harbors and marinas are often defined by the boaters who dock there, but the unique personalities of waterfronts appear to be shifting as city, county and port district agencies seek to draw inland visitors. What does the changing face of our waterfronts mean for boaters? Does redevelopment have to come at the expense of local personality? P. 18

Mexican consulate hosts TIP cancellation events in five cities Boaters seeking to cancel Temporary Import Permits (TIP) associated with vessels previously in Mexico can do so in person during the next few weeks, as officials from south of the border will be visiting five cities between Oct. 11 and Nov. 10 to process such cancellation requests.

Anglers face unknown enemy in fight for fishing license reform A proposal to change California’s fishing license system to a 12-month cycle was dashed yet again as an Assembly committee elected not to recommend Senate Bill 187 for a final vote.

Boaters, who’ve waited for upgrades since the 1990s, are hopeful for a decision. By Parimal M. Rohit DANA POINT — Someone born in 1997 is almost old enough to legally purchase alcohol – yet there has been no major work on Dana Point Harbor’s planned revitalization in the more than 20 years that has elapsed since boat slip and waterfront upgrades were first proposed. Orange County could be on the verge of hiring a vendor to execute the Dana Point Harbor revitalization as part of a public-private partnership – a selection process, in and of itself, which has played out for about 19 months. The selection of a vendor to oversee the revitalization of Dana Point Harbor – which opened in the early 1970s and has not been updated since – has been a long time coming for local boaters and businesses. Revitalizing Dana Point Harbor has been on the drawing board since 1997, but the county-managed waterfront is effectively the same today as it was 20 years ago. Of course there was a groundbreak-

Orange County has already spent about $20 million on the revitalization since 1997 – though no substantive work has been completed. The vendor selected to execute Orange County could be selecting a vendor for the Dana Point Harbor Revitalization this month – though it is possible a final decision its updated vision would come at a later date.

Lighting strikes where ships travel By Nina K. Jussila WASHTINGTON D.C. — Lightning occurs at a higher frequency and with more intensity in places where cargo ships travel than in other parts of the ocean, according to the results of one study. Diesel particles emitted from the vessels trigger more intense storms, researchers claim. “Lightning is nearly twice as frequent directly over two of the world’s busiest shipping lanes in the Indian Ocean and the South China Sea,” the Geophysical Research Letters from a publication of the American Geophysical Union summarized.

Bass Pro said it expects to keep some operations in Sidney, but redundant headquarters jobs will likely be consolidated in Bass Pro’s hometown of Springfield, Missouri. Both outdoor companies had humble beginnings. Cabela’s was founded in 1961 when Dick Cabela started selling fishing flies through the mail from his kitchen table with his wife, Mary, and brother, Jim. Bass Pro got its start in 1971 when founder Johnny Morris began selling high-quality fishing

tackle in his dad’s liquor store in Springfield. Morris developed a following in the region and created the Bass Pro catalog in 1974. Morris also introduced the Bass Tracker fishing boat in 1978 designed specifically for fishermen.

From surveying marines to enjoying the Andaman Sea Off-duty marine surveyor Kells Christian and his wife Hunter chartered a catamaran in the Andaman Sea of Thailand. More than 200 islands are situated in the Andaman Sea with Phuket being the largest of the islands. Phuket is referred to as “the pearl of the Andaman.”

sunk in Lake Huron nearly a century ago has been discovered. Deep diver David Trotter found the S.S. Clifton in September 2016 after beginning his search three decades ago, WZZM-TV reported. “The S.S. Clifton has been on many wreck-hunter’s bucket lists ever since she vanished in 1924,” he said. “Of the remaining shipwrecks left to find in the Great

Lakes, the Clifton would easily be number one.” Trotter said the ship was located about 100 miles south of where several shipwreck hunters believed the Clifton sunk. “Last sightings are not necessarily confirmation of where an event happened, and that couldn’t be more true than in this particular case,” he said. Trotter said he didn’t immediately announce the discovery because he wanted his dive team to further investi-

gate and document the ship this summer. “We made nine separate expeditions out to the Clifton wreck site, during July and August,” he said. “The visibility is much better at that depth during the summer months, so we could capture far better footage, in addition to really exploring the vessel, both inside and out.” He said he wants to understand what caused the ship to sink. Divers haven’t been able to find a reason for the sinking from a mechanical standpoint.

Trotter plans to continue venturing out to the site for more documentation. “The only whaleback steamer that was lost in Lake Huron was the Clifton, and her disappearance has been one of the Great Lakes’ greatest mysteries,” he said. “Historical records will validate much of the information we have pulled up from the wreck, and will provide historians new primary source information about this shipwreck.”

addition to transportation funding. “This is not a situation where reasonable minds may differ,” Frawley wrote. “The attorney general’s title is fundamentally flawed and must be changed to avoid misleading the voters and creating prejudice against the measure.” Becerra spokeswoman Bethany Lesser did not answer questions in a phone call and sent Sept. 26 by email about whether the office plans to appeal the decision. The judge’s rewritten ballot title reads: “Repeals recently enacted gas and diesel taxes and vehicle registration fees. Eliminates road repair and transportation programs funded by these taxes and fees.” The ballot title and summary will appear on petition forms and the ballot if it qualifies. It must be finalized before Allen and his allies can begin collecting signatures in an attempt to put the repeal bill on the November 2018 ballot. Lawmakers voted in April to boost gas taxes and vehicle fees to raise $5 billion a year for road repairs. Starting Nov. 1, gas taxes will increase by 12 cents a gallon and diesel taxes by 20 cents. Allen said he was pleased with the judge’s final language, which he said would make clear to voters what they’re deciding. “By rewriting it himself, he has entirely taken partisanship out of the ballot initiative process just as the California constitution intended,” Allen said.

SACRAMENTO (AP) — A California judge has rewritten the official ballot description for a proposed initiative repealing gas tax increases after finding one written by Attorney General Xavier Becerra was flawed and misleading. Sacramento County Superior Court Judge Timothy Frawley finalized his ballot title and summary on Monday following a lawsuit filed by Assemblyman Travis Allen of Huntington Beach, a Republican candidate for governor who wants to repeal the gas tax. Becerra’s title said the ballot measure would eliminate transportation funding by repealing revenues. Frawley ruled that’s confusing to voters and changed the title to say explicitly that it would repeal gas and diesel taxes in

Re: Talks over Avalon’s Casino Dock Café have reached an impasse (Sept. 22-Oct. 5 issue)

City of Avalon issued another RFP for a café on the fuel dock pier where a large bathroom facility is located.

“Acting in bad faith” It would seem the city council is acting in bad faith or unable to look at this from a business standpoint. The Armstrongs are ready, willing and able to commit a large sum of money to build a permanent structure that would benefit the city. The city counters with design requirements that are not conducive to allowing an adequate eating area to allow for a profit (unless the customers are going to eat in the bathroom). Next the city haggles over a five to ten year period on the lease? Thirty-five or forty years – that is so far out – that the lease will live longer than any of the negotiators. Now the city is talking about food trucks – the

owners of which would have a minimum outlay in cash, and no permanent structure to build? This would mean that if the food truck doesn’t generate enough revenue, they could just load it back on the barge and head for greener pastures. And what type of food is this food truck going to provide? No, they really do need to rethink their posture. Jerry Clanton

Anglers face unknown enemy in fight for fishing license reform

by J.R. Johnson

By Parimal M. Rohit STATEWIDE — If you want to understand the frustration of the everyday American voter, look no further than California’s angling community. Anglers up and down the state spent about two-thirds of 2017 believing they’d realize the fishing reform they long sought: the ability to buy a sportfishing license for a full 12 months, regardless of purchase date. Dreams of efficient consumerism were dashed when a California Assembly committee, despite overwhelming support from several corners and no known opposition, opted not to move forward with Senate Bill 187 (SB 187). The bill, proposed by State Sen. Tom Berryhill, would have changed California’s calendar-based licensing system to a 12-month program, giving the state’s anglers greater value

for their license purchases. Proponents of SB 187 argued the bill would have mandated common sense reform to California’s fishing licensing system. The system currently in place, after all, effectively devalues any fishing permit not purchased on the first day of any given year. An angler who purchases a California fishing license on Jan. 1 is the only person who receives maximum value for his or her purchase – all others are buying into a depreciating asset from Jan. 2 onwards. So why would a (seemingly common sense) plan to establish a 12-month fishing license system – which had widespread support and no on-record opposition – fail to reach the governor’s desk for possible signature? Who is the silent party lurking in the dark, pulling the puppet strings in our legislature and preventing a non-controversial proposal from going forward? The Assembly’s Appropriations Committee – which was chaired by a representative from San Diego – did not provide an explanation as to See STANDING WATCH page 8

Fast Facts: Boating on Los Angeles River By Parimal M. Rohit LOS ANGELES — Yes, you read the headline right – there are boating opportunities on portions of the Los Angeles River. Even kayakers have a place to roam along what is probably one of the most overlooked waterways in Southern California. The Los Angeles River isn’t the first body of water to come to mind when thinking of Southern California. Much of what once was a flowing river was converted into what most people see nowadays: a wide, cemented canal almost devoid of water. There are stretches of the river, however, now ripe for recreational vessel use, thanks to efforts spearheaded by the city of Los Angeles and a variety of private interests. Kayak vendors occupy some portions of the Los Angeles River, while seasonal boating and fishing is permitted at Glendale Narrows (near Griffith Park). Whether the Los Angeles River becomes a regular destination for anglers, boaters or kayakers

remains to be seen. The river’s history, however, is quite interesting. Members of the Tongva tribe, for example, established settlements along the banks of the Los Angeles River – mostly near where the iconic City Hall building stands today. The original Pueblo de Los Angeles was washed away in the early 1800s after the river overflowed and caused heavy flooding. Major flooding in 1914 caused so much damage in the Los Angeles area that local residents demanded action to prevent future catastrophe. The river was converted into a canal system by the 1960s. Nearly 50 years later there are efforts to bring the Los Angeles River back to life for recreational and aesthetic purposes. Sources: City of Los Angeles, Los Angeles Department of Public Works

Harbor Blotter – San Diego

Swimming Under The Influence

By Parimal M. Rohit SAN DIEGO — The newest addition to our coverage will be an intermittent section on police activity at various marinas and harbors in Southern California. Harbor blotter reports often contain “routine” happenings, such as a vessel collision or citation for code violation. There are, however, a few non-routine posts worth noting. The Log, from time to time, will share these blotter posts as they occur. The following reports were obtained from the Port of San Diego:

Harbor Police reportedly responded to a marina in San Diego’s South Bay, Sept. 21, due to calls of a female allegedly swimming in the water and untying boats. Officers reportedly spotted the female, pulled her from the water and suspected her of being under the influence of narcotics. Paramedics were called to the scene to evaluate the suspect for possible hypothermia. The female suspect was later charged, according to Harbor Police.

High-Speed (?) Vessel Chase San Diego Harbor Police was reportedly patrolling the Shelter Island area, Sept. 17, when officers came across a vessel operating without navigational lights. Officers attempted to stop the vessel, according to a Harbor Police report, however the operator continued navigating, causing a short pursuit. The pursuit reportedly came to an end when the vessel struck a dock. Six individuals fled from

to be seen. The other side of the coin is whether supervisors will accept county staff’s recommendation and award the suggested developer with the green light to move forward with plans. Supervisors could well reject county staff’s recommendation, further delaying revitalization plans even more. None of this factors in what would happen once a developer/operator is actually selected. “If we dare to predict any further into the future, we should expect one to two years of entitlements (Coastal

They were handed off to Border Patrol after officers alleged the individuals to be illegal immigrants. Officials reportedly impounded the vessel for evidence.

Commission approvals, building permits, etc.), followed by four to five years of construction. But that’s wild speculation based on our experience and what we know so far,” DPBA’s September newsletter to membership stated. “So don’t put too much faith into it. A new harbor by 2025?” Potentially complicating matters was Orange County’s decision to rescind plans to establish the Dana Point Harbor Advisory Council. The 11-member panel would have effectively served as a harbor commission, yet the council was shut down hours before it was set to go online.

Editor’s Note: The information shared from various harbor blotters is merely a sampling of police activity; information provided, based upon pending investigations, is subject to change. Any information shared does not imply guilt or fault upon any party. Additional information, if available, on reported blotters can be obtained by calling the associated law enforcement agency.

County officials told The Log the council would be replaced by an ad hoc committee in order to provide boaters and other stakeholders with a forum for public input on revitalization and other harbor matters. Dana Point’s boaters, however, remain worried whether they would be able to maintain a voice at the county level. What happens in the coming weeks could offer some answers as to whether the harbor revitalization moves forward in earnest or if the project experiences further delays. DPBA President James Lenthall indicated the Board of Supervisors could be selecting a devel-

opment partner at its Oct. 17 meeting, so some clarity might be around the corner. For now all we do know is Orange County hopes to revitalize Dana Point Harbor with a new 136-room hotel, 2,409 upgraded boat slips (with 42 guest boat slips), nearly 4,000 parking spaces, dry boat storage space and more than 30 acres of retail or commercial uses, among other amenities. The revitalization of Dana Point Harbor hasn’t progressed much in 20-plus years. It could well be a few more years before the revitalization is realized.

Standing Watch From page 6

why it did not advance SB 187 to a full vote. Marko Mlikotin, executive director of California Sportfishing League (CSL), spoke with The Log shortly after the Assembly Appropriations Committee failed to recommend SB 187 for a full vote. He was at a loss to explain the bill’s death. Berryhill was a little more optimistic, however, in his acknowledgement of defeat. The veteran legislator, in a released statement, said his quest to establish a 12-month fishing license system is still alive. “I’m sad to say SB 187, my bill that would have created a 12-month fishing license, died over in the Assembly. However, as luck would have it, I was able to get similar language into a new bill, [Senate Bill 518],” Berryhill stated. “I believe the new language will be able to get a majority of support. I will be fighting hard for this one next year.” Yet the question still remains why SB 187 failed to make it out of the Assembly despite earning unanimous votes in the State Senate and other legislative committees. Berryhill might

be enthusiastic about his chances to realize fishing license reform for California’s angling community with SB 518, but anglers believed real change was on its way with SB 187. Angling interests were both hopeful and adamant of Berryhill’s legislative campaign to reform California’s fishing license system. The Central California legislator proposed similar legislation in 2015, but that bill also failed to make it out of the State Assembly. So why is there such an effort – and associated frustration when said efforts fail – to reform California’s fishing license system? For starters, there’s the aforementioned statement of fishing licenses literally losing their respective values as each day passes. There is no incentive to purchase a fishing license in, say, October, particularly when you are paying the same amount as someone who purchased a license in January (and both licenses expire on the same day). Anglers and angling lobbyists, however, also argue California’s current licensing paradigm translates into diminishing fishing participation in the state.

A CSL study in 2015 stated annual fishing license sales dropped by 55 percent between 1980 and 2014. An estimated 2.26 million fishing licenses were purchased in 1980, compared to roughly 990,000 license purchases in 2014, according to the CSL study. The diminished participation, however, hasn’t necessarily been associated with dwindling revenues, which, it could be argued, might disincentive the powers that be from changing the system. Fishing license sales yielded more than $65 million for the state in 2016. Similar revenues could be achieved this year, according to Department of Fish and Wildlife (DFW) statistics. Anglers spent more than $54 million in fishing licenses through the first eight months of the year. California earned nearly $440 million from fishing license sales between 2010 and 2016. This year’s sales will likely put revenues over the $500 million mark. License sales for the entire decade, if the current trend persists, will likely exceed last decade’s numbers. The state earned more than $565 million from fishing license sales between 2000 and 2009, a number likely to be

eclipsed in late 2018 or early 2019. Annual revenues from fishing license sales, according to DFW statistics, were at $21.5 million in 1980 (or about $61 million in today’s money, when adjusted for inflation), by comparison. Obviously anglers and recreational fishing interests would argue the state could earn even greater revenue if California shifted from a calendar to 12-month system. Yet it’s also hard to change a program when it’s on target to yield about $600 million of revenue this decade alone. Nonetheless the question still persists: who stands to benefit by maintaining the status quo? Perhaps it could be conjecture to claim a shift to 12-month fishing licenses would result in increased revenues for the state – we won’t know one way or the other until the system is actually in place, right? However why not go forward with a seemingly common sense proposal, especially when there is no on-the-record opposition? Quashing a seemingly sensible proposal with no recorded opposition certainly creates an environment where voters do not trust their legislative representatives.

TAKE ACTION SB 187 might have failed, but you can still have your voice be heard – particularly in light of Berryhill’s continued efforts to bring a 12-month fishing license system to fruition in 2018. Below are a few people you can contact – including members of the Assembly Appropriations Committee – to express whether you support or oppose fishing license reform.

Blips on the Radar Latest News Updates

New Slips Now Available!

Oceanside is one of two Southern California cities seeking a harbormaster. The harbormasters at Oceanside and Avalon harbors both retired earlier this year.

SAVE grant provides reimbursement to the city of Avalon What Happened: Avalon City Council approved reimbursing the city with the grant money from California’s Surrendered and Abandoned Vessel Exchange (SAVE) program at their Sept. 19 meeting just prior to the grant expiring on Sept. 30. The city applied and was awarded a $32,400 SAVE grant in October 2015. Funding from the grant is used to reimburse the city for any costs of removing relinquished or derelict boats from its harbor within a two year period. Avalon City Council agreed in June to redistribute $10,613 of the grant to the city of Santa Barbara Waterfront Department through the funds assist program, since Avalon was not in need of using all the money. The remaining grant money ($21,787) was set to expire at the end of September. City of Avalon provided Richardson Bay Marina’s abandoned vessel program with $6,787 when the marina asked for assistance. The remaining funds were used to remove a vessel from Avalon’s own harbor. “Last hour, we were able to get the owner of Duet to sign off his boat for disposal,” JJ Poindexter, interim harbormaster for Avalon, said. “He and his wife were on the boat in 2014 when we had that bad storm. They survived.” Duet had made it through a couple bad storms in the Avalon harbor, Poindexter mentioned, but was unlikely going to make it through another one. The owner had also moved away, so city staff had been working with the owner to agree to let the boat go due to the poor condition. The owner finally but reluctantly agreed. Avalon paid $15,000 for contract work for the removal and disposal of the boat, Duet. All the funding from the SAVE grant will then be used to reimburse the city. What’s On Tap: The city of Avalon has not applied for another SAVE grant at this time. “We haven’t re-applied for another

grant,” Poindexter confirmed. “The last storm took care of the majority of our boats. “Those grants come up every year, and we will look at it down the road,” Poindexter continued. “But for now, Duet was the last one [in need of being removed from the harbor].”

What Happened: Avalon has been searching for a new harbormaster since July 1, shortly after Brian Bray ended his 38-year career on the job. Assistant Harbormaster JJ Poindexter has filled in as Interim Harbormaster, while the city interviews applicants. Oceanside has also been looking to hire someone to manage its 1,000-slip harbor; former Harbor Manager Paul Lawrence retired June 16. The Avalon harbormaster position’s salary ranges from $155,484 to $189,000 annually. The annual salary range for Harbor Division Manager in Oceanside is between $92,888 and $118,212. What’s On Tap: City staff in Avalon interviewed nine out of 30 applicants for harbormaster and has narrowed the pool of candidates down to four, according to Poindexter. A final hiring decision has not been made as of Sept. 26, The Log verified with Avalon City Manager David Jenkins. “The position is an important one and we will take what time we need to ensure that we do the best job possible for the City and community on this matter,” Jenkins stated. “The Interim Harbor Master remains JJ. Poindexter. He and Department personnel are doing a good job during this period of time while a final decision on the appointment is under review.” Oceanside’s website had the application process open until July 14. The position is no longer posted on the city’s website but is posted on the harbormaster.org website. The Log reached out to Oceanside harbor administrator who had no updates on the status of the position.

Santa Barbara Waterfront reports on the wild weather burst Harbor Commission updated on new boating law and harbor patrol boats. By Nina K. Jussila

Parimal M. Rohit photo

SANTA BARBARA — The power of Mother Nature has been headlining the news lately. A sudden change in weather conditions certainly left its mark on California’s Central Coast. The Santa Barbara Waterfront Department imparted a verbal account at the Sept. 21 Harbor Commission meeting on what occurred Labor Day weekend with the unforeseen weather over the local harbor. The Waterfront Department also provided an overview of the new boating law going into effect next year as well as an update on the harbor patrol fleet.

Wild Weather Harbor Operations Manager Mick Kronman provided an update on the weird weather burst that occurred on Sept. 3. People in the Santa Barbara Harbor were literally thrown off their watercrafts when rain suddenly plummeted

Santa Barbara Harbor, seen here on a sunny day, was subject to a wild weather burst during Labor Day weekend. Wind gusts reached up to 80 mph in a matter of seconds. The gusts lasted for about 2 minutes but caused some damage across the harbor.

down and strong winds blew over the waterfront. The wind gusts of up to 80 miles per hour only lasted two minutes, according to Kronman. The couple minutes of powerful winds “did pitch 17 people into the bay off paddleboards and out of kayaks that were swamped and overturned,” Kronman said. “But the good news is we had harbor patrol actually on scene in the middle of the harbor when the event hit. So when the blinding wind and rain ended, they were right there.” Kronman reported all 17 people (some with bumps and bruises) were picked up and safely returned to shore. Three people were injured on the waterfront that day. A 16 year old female was seriously injured and had to be airlifted to a Los Angeles hospital. Kronman said one of the harbor patrol boats got spun in circles, and patrol officers observed kayaks flying by at eye level. One man was reportedly hit by an airborne standup paddleboard. “According to the weather service meteorologist, it was a downburst. But when you get a down draft like that, it tends to expand at the same time,” Kronman relayed. “It seemed like it might have some minor cyclonic activity.” The microburst, now being referred to as a downburst, broke light posts on Stearns Wharf, knocked down trees onto parked cars in the main harbor lot as well as “bent masts, tore sails, ripped Bimini tops, ripped out shore power plugs right” and more. “What’s really daunting in the last

few weeks is seeing on the news that these winds are about one third of the winds you saw on the most recent hurricanes,” Kronman added. “It makes those events [on the East Coast] almost unimaginable.”

New California Boating Law Kronman also provided a brief overview of the new boating law going into effect Jan. 1, 2018, per Harbor Commission Chair Jim Sloan’s request. “For four million recreational boaters in California, we were only one of five states that didn’t have a requirement for training and certification… to operate a recreational boat on state waters.” Kronman stated. The new state-mandated law requires anyone 20 years or younger operating a motor boat to show proof of knowledge about boating laws and navigation by having a California Boater Card as of Jan. 1, 2018. The rollout schedule, based on age, will require everyone to have a California Boater Card by 2025. Kronman mentioned there are still some glitches to work out on obtaining the card, but it is relatively inexpensive with the card costing $10 and a replacement card costing $5. One harbor commissioner said he thinks “it’s a great thing that people are getting up to at least the lowest level of understanding of how to run a boat at sea amongst other boats.” Kronman agreed with the commissioner saying it’s long overdue. The upcoming boating regulation, however, comes with numerous

exemptions such as when someone rents a boat. Details on the new California boating law are available online at CaliforniaBoaterCard.com.

Harbor Patrol Boats Waterfront Facilities Manager Karl Treiberg provided a status report to the commission on the Santa Barbara Harbor Patrol fleet. The oldest boat of the fleet, built in 1983, has been replaced with a new boat. The new boat cost $214,000. The fiscal year budget already had $110,000 towards replacing the engines of the old boat. The additional money, to build the new boat rather than just replace the engines on the old boat, came from the vessel reserve fund and the capital improvement program. “Don Radon, a local builder, began construction in July of 2016 and delivered the boat in March of 2017,” Treiberg said. “The boat is essentially in full service at this time. The new addition to the fleet is a “fireboat, which is unique for such a small boat,” Treiberg added. The other harbor patrol boat built in 1984 had the two drive engines replaced at a cost of $116,670. The waterfront department has budgeted $200,000 for the third harbor patrol boat to be repowered in the 2018 fiscal year. “Once that’s done, we’ll be in a good position for at least the next six years,” Treiberg stated.

The natural occurrence of waves was one possible explanation for recent sand erosion at a Catalina Island beach. Another reason suggested for such erosion: the practice of Catalina Express boats running its engines in reverse while docked.

The theories behind the erosion of Catalina Island’s South Beach explained Avalon City Council receives the results of this year’s sedimentation study. By Nina K. Jussila AVALON — Two theories have been circulating in Avalon regarding the cause of sand disappearing from South Beach. One notion involves currents created by the Catalina Express running its engines in reverse while docked. Another explanation: waves are eroding the beach. Dr. Scott Jenkins of Michael Baker International (MBI) presented the findings from the Avalon Harbor Sediment Study to the Avalon City Council on Sept. 19. The erosion occurring on South Beach is due to a combination of both of these factors, the expert explained to the council. The prop wash from the Catalina Express does create a current, which loops along the seawall, Dr. Jenkins confirmed. “When Catalina Express boats are berthed and running reverse to tension dock mooring lines for better sea keeping, its reverse thrust is creating a wake coming towards the seawall,” Dr. Jenkins explained. “When that prop wash strikes that seawall, it then follows the seawall as a boundary current but that’s not strong enough to erode the sand.” However, a combination of the current created by the Catalina Express along with the occurrence of large waves reflecting off the seawall does move the sand off the beach. The sand then settles under Pleasure Pier along a very old concrete groin. The city entered into a contract with Michael Baker International in October 2016 to conduct the sedimentation study. The survey conducted this year was compared to a survey done in 1994. “We did determine about 5,000 cubic yards of sand have eroded off of South Beach and was deposited under Pleasure Pier,” Dr. Jenkins stated. Dr. Jenkins recommended 5,000 cubic yards of sand be removed from under the Pleasure Pier and be distributed back onto South Beach.

The groin underneath Pleasure Pier should be demolished and removed, according to Dr. Jenkins. The process of dredging and recycling the sand is just the first part of the solution. The second part would involve taking measures to prevent erosion from continuing at South Beach. A couple options Dr. Jenkins presented to the council involved a wave absorber or a retaining wall to prevent or reduce wave reflection off the seawall. “The problem with these two approaches,” Dr. Jenkins stated, “is…the footprint of [either] structure is going to take up the beach you are trying to restore.” The other concern is the cost of building a wave absorber or a retaining wall, called a rock revetment. The total investment for a wave absorber is $13.6 million and for a rock revetment is $6.8 million. Another option, according to Dr. Jenkins, is to build a “100 foot deflection wall to dissipate the loop current.” The cost of a deflection wall is $850,000. The deflection wall brought up another concern of displacing half a dozen moorings. “One other option would be a nonstructural approach,” Dr. Jenkins suggested. “Make some modifications to the way of the operational procedures of the Catalina Express. “I want to be very delicate with this, because they’ve brought over 25 million visitors to our island,” Dr. Jenkins added. “Catalina Express is just vital to this community.” Makrom Shatila, project manager with MBI, said they can come up with other alternatives if they are allowed to investigate further. Avalon City Council agreed to have them look into further solutions and have a proposal prepared for a future council meeting. “My solution is a soft solution of building our beaches, not building walls,” Dr. Jenkins stated. He also concluded with a bit of good news: Avalon has plenty of sand in its own harbor to replenish the beach.

By Nina K. Jussila NEWPORT BEACH — A floating autonomous apparatus might be seen maneuvering around Upper Newport Bay collecting trash and debris in the next couple years. Environmental impact studies are currently under way for a water wheel in Newport Beach. The idea is to help prevent or reduce rubbish in Newport Harbor by catching trash where the San Diego Creek meets Upper Newport Bay. The plan is to stop the flow of trash emerging from San Diego Creek from storm drains, empting into Newport Bay and ultimately ending up on the beaches and in the harbor. Newport Bay beaches have been getting an F grade from Heal the Harbor following storms, as The Log previously reported. Billy Dutton and Mark Ward of Help Your Harbor and Surfrider’s Foundation are spearheading the water wheel concept. They presently organize monthly harbor cleanup events, called Help Your Harbor. They hope the water wheel will put Help Your Harbor out of business, so they can go back to surfing in the ocean rather than collecting trash in the bay. “We believe [the water wheel] should capture over 90 percent of all the debris that is coming into Newport Bay,” Dutton told The Log. A water wheel currently exists in Baltimore with the capability of collecting 50,000 pounds of trash daily. The water wheel is powered by using solar energy from the sun and by the current of the water. Booms capture the floating debris, which gets lifted onto a conveyor belt and deposited it into a dumpster, which can be removed and emptied. “Definitely one of the things we’re looking for is making this as green of a project as possible,” Dutton stated.

Anchor QEA will be conducting sediment samplings of Newport Beach’s harbor as part of an environmental study. The city of Newport Beach is required to review nearshore sediments as part of its RGP-54 program.

Newport Beach to conduct sediment sampling for dredging permits City must conduct testing to maintain RGP-54 program for another five years. By Parimal M. Rohit NEWPORT BEACH — The city of Newport Beach hired a firm, Sept. 12, to survey nearshore sediments as part of its unique dredging program. The environmental study is required every five years in order for the city to keep its Regional General Permit-54, or RGP-54, valid. Newport Beach was the first city in the country authorized to issue federal dredging permits on its own accord. The RGP-54 permits are issued to residential and commercial pier operators. The city’s current permitting expires July 2018. Anchor QEA LLC will perform the sediment analysis, according to a city staff report. The professional service contract was approved by Newport Beach’s City Council, Sept. 12. All nearshore sediment within Newport Beach Harbor must be studied every five years to keep the RGP-54 process active. Residential and commercial property owners who maintain piers or marinas were recently permitted to apply for small dredging projects through Newport Beach – as opposed to applying for such projects through federal agencies. “As a condition of this permit, the city commits to a full harbor-wide nearshore sediment testing program every five years to ensure the sediment is clean and suitable for either beach or open ocean disposal,” city staff stated in a report to City Council members. “The proposed work involves sampling from a vessel at 54 previously approved locations over 10 days using vibrac-

ore equipment, and includes a single reference sediment sample site in the ocean.” Previous sampling did not raise any red flags in tested sediment, so Newport Beach city staff does not expect anything to change with current testing, according to the City Council report. City officials would prepare an analysis report with complete results and submit it to a group of state and federal regulatory agencies. Each of the agencies would have to approve the results and acknowledge conditions have not changed significantly enough as to revoke Newport Beach’s RGP-54 program. A city request to extend the sampling interval to a longer period (prior to the City Council’s Sept. 12 action) was reportedly denied. Anchor QEA was selected through the city’s Request for Proposals process. The company was chosen “because of [its] previous sediment testing knowledge for the same program in 2013, [its] intimate familiarity of the permit details and nuances that were negotiated during the entitlement process,” city staff stated in its report to the City Council. Another factor in the city’s decision to hire Anchor QEA was the firm’s ability “to react immediately before the rainy season this fall [as] turbidity from rainfall affects sampling accuracy.” The study’s approved budget is capped at $280,305. Newport Beach was granted primary responsibility to manage small dredging projects in 2015. The RGP-54 program allows residential and commercial property owners with marinas or piers to dredge up to 8,000 cubic yards per event (and up to 75,000 cubic yards per year) under and around existing docks.

Enforcement of marina rules was a hot topic for this particular sailboat in Long Beach.

BOA supports Marine Bureau I take issue with your article implying that Long Beach Marine Bureau managers were not enforcing the Marina Rules and Regulations concerning derelict vessels, or were doing so capriciously. The article quoted a member of the Board of Directors of the Long Beach Marina Boat Owners Association (BOA). He was voicing his own opinion and not that of the BOA Board. BOA fully supports marina management in its enforcement of Marina Rules & Regulations. Boat owners who feel they have not been fairly treated by management can request a formal hearing by the Long Beach Marine Advisory Commission (MAC). I have ... been in attendance when the MAC hears complaints from boaters who are being evicted from their slips due to violation of rules and procedures. My belief is that these boaters were consistently treated fairly and were given repeated opportunities to correct their behavior before management imposed sanctions. In my opinion, marina managers do not behave capriciously in their governance of marina affairs. Tom Mayes, PhD.

Lack of enforcement of the rules for maintaining boats in slips (and moorings) is an ongoing problem in every marina I’ve been in. Many boats go for months—even years—without being used or maintained. They not only contribute to the visual degradation of the marina, but many become hazards due to insufficient or no proper bonding and/or shore-power cords. This can cause stray current to affect other boats and, from what I’m told, can contribute to their expense for more electrolysis prevention and actual damage to their outdrives. A marina should be a place to come and sit on our boats and enjoy the view – not to have to be subjected to a filthy, deteriorated boat next door. The marina operators should realize many people wanting to enjoy their boats are on waiting lists and cause these irresponsible tenants to remove their boats. Wayne Ford

Waiting list is a joke In my personal experience, dealing with the Long Beach Marine Bureau has been a total joke. We paid to be on their “waiting list” for a smaller slip for years. After several years of paying the more than $50 “waiting list fee” (what nonsense is that?), I finally told them to remove me when they called this year to complain that I hadn’t re-upped on the waiting list fee. This comes after years of assurances that the new construction in LB marinas would yield additional slips. Most recently I received a verbal “pat on the head” when I inquired as to my place on the waiting list and prospects for the future. I think I’ll save the money spent on the ridiculous “waiting list fee” and simply berth elsewhere, where my business is appreciated and I am treated respectfully. It seems that the LB Marine Bureau is run completely at the discretion of the director with very little in the way of recourse for those of us in the boating community who are not insiders. Pretty familiar-sounding if you have lived in, and voted in, Long Beach for any significant length of time. We have been very happy in our new marina in San Pedro. Good luck, LB slipholders! We once wished to be among that number, but no longer. Mark V.

Mexican consulate hosts TIP cancellation events in five cities By Parimal M. Rohit MEXICO CITY — Boaters seeking to cancel Temporary Import Permits (TIP) associated with vessels previously in Mexico can do so in person during the next few weeks, as officials from south of the border will be visiting five cities between Oct. 11 and Nov. 10 to process such cancellation requests. Members of the Mexican consulate will visit, in order, Los Angeles, Dallas, Houston, Sacramento and Chicago during the 30-day cancellation campaign. Association of Mexican Marinas President Enrique Salcedo stated the TIP cancellation campaign aims to assist boaters seeking to cancel permits due to change of ownership, permit expiration or any other reason (for vessels outside of Mexico). Customs authorities will be on hand to cancel import permits at the following consulates: • Los Angeles, Oct. 11-12, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., 2401 West Sixth Street • Dallas, Texas, Oct. 13-15, 3 to 6 p.m. (Friday) and 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. (Saturday and Sunday), 1210 River Bend • Houston, Texas, Oct. 25-27, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., 4507 San Jacinto Street • Sacramento, Nov. 2-3, 8 a.m. to 5

Proposal to extend sea level rise database signed into law Gov. Jerry Brown signs bill to maintain planning measure in place through 2023. By Parimal M. Rohit SACRAMENTO — A legislative proposal to continue maintaining a database for sea level rise planning purposes has officially become law as Gov. Jerry Brown signed off on Assembly Bill 184 (AB 184), Sept. 28. The sea level rise database was set to expire in 2018, which prompted Assembly member Marc Berman to introduce AB 184 earlier this year. AB 184 originally proposed to establish the sea level rise database as a permanent program. The bill, however, was later amended to allow for a five-year extension. California currently maintains a database for sea level rise planning purposes. The database is populated with information provided by public and private entities and is maintained by Natural Resource Agency and Ocean

Protection Council. “Several state agencies as well as ports, airports, and utilities located along the coast and in the San Francisco Bay Area are required to report sea level rise planning information to the Natural Resources Agency biannually, including studies, models, maps, cost-benefit analyses, vulnerability assessments, and updates regarding adaptation projects,” Berman’s staff said in a statement about Brown’s signing of AB 184. “Collecting and making this data available is vital to our state’s ability to overcome challenges presented by sea level rise.” Information within the database, which was created in 2014, would be used to help various agencies decide what action to take, if any, when attempting to address potential threats from sea level rise and climate change. “Climate risks in California include sea level rise, changes in precipitation that increase the risk of both drought and flooding, and increases in temperatures that can affect air quality and habitat,” the latest Assembly analysis

of the bill stated. “According to Ocean Protection Council (OPC), climate change has already caused 8 inches of sea level rise at the San Francisco tidal gauge and scientists project an additional 4 to 5.5 feet or more of rising sea levels by 2100, within the lifetime of children born today. “These higher water levels amplify the flooding that occurs during El Niño periods and coastal storms. California is responding to these risks through various efforts,” the legislative analysis continued. Maintaining the database through 2023 would cost about $65,000, according to the Assembly Appropriations Committee. The state’s climate adaptation strategy, known as Safeguarding California Plan, would also have to be updated as part of the database extension. Climate change and sea level rise are already being addressed by several public agencies within the state. In August 2015 the California Coastal Commission adopted a Sea Level Rise Policy Guidance document, which,

according to the Assembly’s legislative staff, “provides an overview of best available science on sea level rise for California and recommends steps for addressing sea level rise in [the commission’s] planning and regulatory actions.” A legislative analysis of AB 184 identified sea level rise as one of California’s substantive climate risks. “Two-thirds of Californians inhabit coastal regions, which means sea level rise will have a catastrophic impact on coastal communities, infrastructure, and the economy if left unaddressed,” Berman said. “AB 184 preserves a critical tool that is needed to provide an educated, coordinated, and effective response to sea level rise.” AB 184 earned widespread support in both legislative houses before moving forward to the governor’s desk for signature. Assembly members approved the final version of AB 184, Sept. 5, by a 65-11 vote; the State Senate supported the bill by a 35-4 vote about one week earlier.

Channel Islands Harbor administration building to be replaced After a 12-year wait, a new facility will be erected on the same site.

OXNARD — The future of Channel Islands Harbor’s redevelopment continues to be in limbo after the California Coastal Commission delayed a scheduled dispute resolution hearing on the project, but work on Ventura County’s Harbor Department new administration building is finally underway. The Ventura County Board of Supervisors voted in 2005 to build a modern structure to house the Harbor Patrol and Harbor Director along with staff, financing and leasing operations, a conference room, patrol and emergency equipment and the maintenance shop and adjoining facilities. “The supervisors approved the reconstruction 12 years ago, but we had put it on hold to get other projects moving forward in the harbor first,” Harbor Director Lyn Krieger explained. However, the severe economic downturn of 2008 caused the project to be delayed. The project would earn the Coastal Commission’s blessing in August 2013, but work on the new Harbor Department’s new digs remained delayed until now – primarily due to the recession. “The recession was so deep, we weren’t certain that there would be enough income to handle all the maintenance that has to be done on a daily basis in and around the harbor,” Krieger said. The redevelopment calls for the original administration building to be demolished and then replaced with a 9,000-square-foot, two-story office building with site stabilization, marine rock revetment work, new parking lot and modern bathrooms. The entire facility will now be accessible to people

Ventura County Harbor Department rendering

Ventura County’s Harbor Department will finally have a new administration building. Work on the construction project is officially underway and should be ready at some point in 2018. Plans to rebuild the administration building were delayed after the 2008 economic downturn caused the project to be put on hold.

with disabilities. “There are many boaters with physical disabilities; the new facility from the parking lot to the hallways and bathrooms will provide greater accessibility for everyone,” Krieger explained. The project is expected to take 14 months to complete at a cost of about $5 million. Funding for the facility comes directly from harbor income. “We have prequalified five companies capable of doing the work. In the next 60 days we will present the three finalists to the County Supervisors to make the final determination of which company will get the project,” Krieger said. The upstairs area of the building will hold the administration department allowing for more room downstairs for

the now larger Harbor Patrol. When the facility was constructed in 1965, it was designed to handle a much smaller workload. A lot of the space currently in use was transformed from a maintenance shed into office space. There were no computers and few electronic devices back then, so the requirement for improved electrical systems is also necessary to handle the increased load. Meeting space will be included in the new building, thus saving the expense of renting offsite space. The county hopes to begin construction this winter. All staff moved into temporary quarters (trailers) in mid-July. “The facility will have working heating and cooling (something not avail-

able now), larger locker space for the current complement of harbor patrol personnel and emergency equipment storage. There is no triage space now, and sometimes my office becomes the location for emergency care,” Krieger said. With the expansion of Mandalay Bay north of Channel Islands Harbor Bridge and the addition of a harbor patrol substation at Seabridge, the need for greater coverage has grown, requiring more harbor personnel. “We have been getting all our work permits approved and are ready to start the project. We’re not building a Taj Mahal, we just want to modernize for greater functionality, efficiency and accessibility for everyone who comes here,” Krieger said.

Decision on modified mooring requirements in Newport Beach postponed until November. By Nina K. Jussila NEWPORT BEACH — Mooring permit holders might have to pay for new buoys in Newport Beach Harbor, yet local boaters will have to wait a few more weeks before a final decision is made. Adjusted mooring requirements have been proposed but not finalized with a decision being postponed until November. Newport Beach’s City Council received a Harbor Commission recommendation and request for approval on revised mooring specifications at their Sept. 26 meeting, but held off on lodging a final vote. City Council member Will O’Neill asked for public comment on the recommended style, weight and chains for mooring buoys. The public responses impelled the City Council members to solicit additional feedback prior to making a determination regarding mooring specifications. Newport Beach city staff reconsidered mooring conditions, since mooring responsibilities have shifted from the county’s responsibility to the city. City staff recommended modifying the shape and weight of mooring buoys as well as the size of the chains and lines. The condition of moorings was discussed at the Sept. 13 Harbor Commission meeting. Larger vessels and squally weather impelled city staff to take some action and amend mooring requirements. “As vessels continue to increase in size (beam, length, height and weight), the mooring specifications should be periodically reviewed to ensure safety of the mooring permittee’s vessel as

CHANNEL ISLANDS NATIONAL PARK — Santa Barbara Island has been reopened and can be accessed by the public, according to the National Park Service. Island landings will only be permitted at the rocky ledge adjacent to the boating dock, according to NPS staff. “In order to ensure a safe landing, boaters will need to carefully assess the weather conditions, particularly the tide and swell heights, prior to landing in this area,” NPS staff stated in its announcement. “The dock remains closed and is not expected to be repaired in the near future due to the severe nature of damage that occurred with successive storms the past two winters.” Santa Barbara Island, the smallest island in the Channel Islands National Park system, was closed to the public as park officials sought to stabilize local trails. The island’s trails were reportedly damage during last winter’s storms. The island, located about 50 miles away from Ventura and 24 miles from neighboring Catalina Island, is one of the least visited in the Channel Islands chain.

SAN DIEGO — If you’ve been wondering how to help hurricane-ravaged sailors, boaters and local residents, consider joining South Coast Yachts’ Southern California’s-spearheaded efforts.

The Cult of Personality:

Re-envisioning Southern California Waterfronts Cities, counties and port districts are rushing to revitalize harbor areas, but will everyone benefit? By Parimal M. Rohit SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA — One of California’s greatest assets is its waterfront, be it where land meets ocean or at one of the state’s many inland waterways. Public access to any stretch of coast within California is not only a birthright but also a way of life. The California coast is both admired and loved, as if it were a cult of personality. Yet has our birthright and love of the coast become such an integral part of our lives and lifestyles as to make local waterfronts an attractive destination for new, large-scale development? Will such renewed efforts to redevelop destinations along our urban coast be devoid of local flavor and uniqueness? Large stretches of California’s coast, to be fair, have already been saturated with development, be it large swaths of homes or a series of commercial destinations. Anyone navigating along the Southern California coast would be hard pressed to find a significant stretch of undeveloped coast between Ventura and Tijuana. Of course much of Southern California’s coastal development

Redondo Beach & Long Beach El Segundo-based developer CenterCal Properties was certainly no stranger to the challenges of redeveloping local waterfronts. CenterCal was the company behind a proposed $300 million revitalization of Redondo Beach’s King Harbor. The project recently stalled after years of planning and community meetings. Redondo Beach voters approved a slow growth themed ballot measure during an election earlier this year, basically putting the brakes on CenterCal’s “The Waterfront” project. Those who campaigned against The Waterfront claimed the redevelopment project was essentially an oversized mall on the waterfront. Naturally CenterCal held its ground, stating The Waterfront reflected the input it received from Redondo Beach as a whole. What eventually happens at King Harbor remains to be seen – city officials are still debating where, if anywhere, a boat launch ramp should be placed. The city appears to be moving forward with a plan to upgrade and modernize a dilapidated sportfishing pier.

Boaters are drawn to each harbor or marina for different reasons, but will the redevelopment of Southern California’s waterfronts redefine local uniqueness?

occurred between the late 1950s and early 1970s. Many waterfront locales, accordingly, are becoming ripe for redevelopment. The combination of high property values in coastal communities, booming population centers within a few miles of any given beach and a sustainable waterfront economy certainly translates into big budget developers eyeing specific enclaves for redevelopment or revitalization. The series of $64,000 questions in all of this: will these redevelopment projects significantly replace what some might consider as local charm with something bland or generic? Or will the updated urban design actually bring new character to a dated development? How will all the changes affect boaters? We’re already seeing some of these questions play out at just about every harbor or marina between Ventura and Chula Vista. A new hotel development is slated for Ventura Harbor, while Ventura County

officials have been trying to revitalize Channel Islands Harbor for more than a decade. Los Angeles County’s Department of Beaches and Harbors, meanwhile, has been redeveloping segments of Marina del Rey, with other revitalization projects still on tap. Plans to redevelop Redondo Beach’s King Harbor hit a significant hitch when local voters essentially stopped a large-scale development known as The Waterfront. The city of Los Angeles, conversely, shut down a marina in San Pedro as officials there are preparing to convert the harbor area into a San Francisco-like destination. Another revitalization plan has been in the works for Orange County’s Dana Point in 1997, but substantive work on the waterfront has not yet started. Multiple plans are in play down in San Diego County, where the local port district hopes to finalize redevelopment

plans at Chula Vista Harbor, Harbor Island and the downtown waterfront within the next few years. Each redevelopment has its share of skeptics and critics, with some claiming a given project is out of touch with community character or personality. Such voices were loud in Redondo Beach and Newport Beach, where proposals to renovate King Harbor and Mariners’ Mile, respectively, met significant resistance from local residents who disagreed with design plans. Newport Beach planners, for example, have struggled to update the Mariners’ Mile waterfront as certain corners of the city do not want any redevelopment plans to erase the village’s maritime themes. Antiquity is already at a premium in Southern California. The number of historic landmarks reminding us of Los Angeles’ or San Diego’s past are few and far between. Plans to execute full-scale updates of local waterfronts could be interpreted as the latest attempt to modernize Southern California’s urban footprint. It is fair to say change is good. It is also fair to question whether such changes come at the expense of personality and uniqueness. Here’s an overview of what’s going on at some of these harbors and waterfronts, as well as a few perspectives of whether future development would chip away from local history. egd / Shutterstock.com

Yet CenterCal isn’t entirely out of the picture, so a lot could still happen in the coming months and/or years. CenterCal’s other Southern California project – 2nd and PCH – proposes to bring a visitor serving retail center across the street from Alamitos Bay Marina in Long Beach. The 2nd and PCH project is still in the early stages of development – CenterCal hopes to be in front of the Long Beach City Council this month. However the developer believes, just as it did in Redondo Beach, the redevelopment project is an amalgamation of community and business interests. Fred Bruning, CenterCal’s CEO, said the 2nd and PCH project aims to gauge the needs of the surrounding community and determine what would constitute a “successful” project. “One of the worst things that can happen to a community is the project is unsuccessful,” Bruning told The Log. The CenterCal CEO said his team does make an effort to find out what the local community seeks to include in a project. Bruning said his team generally creates a project combining the community’s desires with aesthetic design.

CenterCal Proposals developed plans to revitalize waterfronts in Long Beach and Redondo Beach. The Redondo Beach proposal is in the midst of a legal battle.

The 2nd and PCH project, for example, would be where locals can come together at a gathering place and take in views of the marina while eating a meal or drinking some wine. CenterCal President Jean Paul Wardy said the 2nd and PCH project would include a number of local tenants who represent Long Beach’s character and personality. “Long Beach has a very strong and unique identity and you want to bring that forward in the project,” Wardy told The Log, adding the project would certainly include a mix of

local tenants and regional (or big box) businesses. Whole Foods, for example, is expected to be the anchor tenant for 2nd and PCH. “We really oriented the entire project to the water,” Wardy continued, adding the center’s pedestrian walkways and restaurants open up with views to the water.

Catalina Island

San Diego

One of the most beloved destinations for Southern California boaters is across the channel at Catalina Island. The island’s two major anchors – Avalon and Two Harbors – are unique cultures onto themselves. Two Harbors, for starters, is quite the remote village. The tiny enclave is home to one restaurant, one general Avalon’s city manager said cities must find a way to balance the need to grow with maintaining store, one partially operating school- local personality & flavor. house, one yacht club, one bed-andbreakfast and one beachfront resort. “Not all change is bad.

Marina del Rey Plenty of change is in store for boaters in Marina del Rey, what with redevelopment plans in place or already in motion at Parcel 44, Fisherman’s Village and several local marinas. Opponents of Marina del Rey’s multiphased development have long argued owners of smaller vessels are being phased out as new projects go online. Los Angeles County, which governs Marina del Rey, conducted a visioning process for Marina del Rey in 2013 and 2014. Staff from the county’s Department of Regional Planning reportedly met with various Marina del Rey stakeholders to gather input, according to officials, “develop a vision for Marina del Rey for the next 20 years.” Marina del Rey, similar to all

other waterfront locales in Southern California, took substantive shape in the 1960s. County staff, in its visioning process, stated the Marina del Rey community was in need of redevelopment since the area today is dramatically different than it was in the 1960s. “Since it was originally created, Marina del Rey has matured, consumer tastes and recreational interests have changed, and a revised vision to guide future redevelopment is needed,” Department of Regional Planning staff stated in a vision statement for Marina del Rey’s future. The visioning process did note a few emerging concerns from public input, such as: inadequate noticing process; public comments won’t be heard or considered; county officials do not care about the needs of the Marina del Rey community; and, new

developments would move forward without public input. Locals also stated they wanted county officials to ensure upcoming redevelopment projects would

enhance boating uses and activities, ensure recreational opportunities for youth and provide as many onthe-water activities as possible for all county residents.

Nina K. Jussila photos

NEWPORT BEACH — Central Avenue Pier officially opened Sept. 29, according to Newport Beach city staff. The public pier provides boaters with access to Lido Marina Village in Newport Beach. Construction on the public dock has been completed. The ramp is in place and the cleats are installed, Newport Beach Harbormaster Dennis Durgan confirmed. Rules and regulations for this pier still have to be determined. “We have yet to post signage for lengths of stay, but that will come soon,” Harbor Manager Chris Miller wrote in an email to The Log. “We’ll be discussing length of boats at this pier at the October Harbor Commission meeting.”

“The pier will be periodically closed as we start construction on the plaza in the coming weeks,” Miller added. California Coastal Commission approved the construction of the public dock on Nov. 4, 2016.

The public are welcome to tour aboard the United States Coast Guard’s Cutter Blackfin, the Ocean Institute’s tall ship Spirit of Dana Point, the NOAA research vessel Shearwater and Santa Barbara Maritime Museum’s flagship Ranger.

San Diego will host the next segment on the Extreme Sailing Series. The sailing event, which makes its West Coast debut, will be held Oct. 19-22 at Harbor Island. Sailors from around the world will participate in the race.

Extreme Sailing Series returns to U.S. making West Coast debut in San Diego World-class sailors race foiling catamarans inshore on Harbor Island, Oct. 19-22. SAN DIEGO — The Extreme Sailing Series returns to the United States and makes its West Coast debut in San Diego, Oct. 19-22. Top sailors from around the world will race high-speed foiling catamarans for four days on Harbor Island. The first US Team for Extreme Sailing will be in the series with a crew of five sailors. “The all-star American syndicate - which is sponsored by Texan restaurant chain Lupe Tortilla and Demetrio Tequila - will make its debut on the GC32 as the Series hits the waters of San Diego Bay,” a press release stated. The series has been taking place in various locations internationally for the past six years. “We are thrilled to be heading back to the United States for the first time after a long absence,” Extreme Sailing Series Event Director Andy Tourell said at a San Diego news conference, Sept. 20. “I have no doubt that San Diego, which has a long sailing tradition, will quickly establish itself as one of the classic venues on our circuit, along with the likes of Barcelona, Spain; Hamburg, Germany and Cardiff, U.K.” Sailors will be racing matching GC32 hydro-foiling catamarans in the San Diego Bay quite close to shore – a little more than 5 yards from the waterfront – giving spectators an opportunity to view the entire sailing competition up close. “Our bay’s natural stadium style setting will offer an outstanding competitive environment and an unforgettable spectator experience,” San Diego Board of Port Commissioners Chair Robert Valderrama stated. “This event was an important investment for the Port because it is a great activity that will draw people to the waterfront and offer an experience that

is truly unique to San Diego.” The event is free to the public. Harbor Island’s waterfront will be transformed into a race village. The village will consist of family-friendly activities, a kid’s zone, live music, vendors, food and beer gardens. A VIP experience is an option for spectators wanting to get even closer to the action by getting out on the water aboard GC32s during the actual racing. “As a lifelong sailor, I am pleased that the great fans in our community and sailing enthusiasts from around the country will have the privilege to experience the action and thrills of competitive stadium

sailing up close,” Matt Reynolds, CEO of Extreme San Diego, said. The Extreme Sailing Series began 10 years ago as a way for spectators to enjoy viewing competitive racing in a stadium-like setting. Sailors race in identical hydro-foiling GC32 catamarans on short courses. Top speed for these light-weight GC32s is up to 39 knots. Additional details about the history of the Extreme Sailing Series and on the upcoming events held for the first time in San Diego are available online at extremesailingseries.com.

Cal 20: A popular boat still in the race despite not being built By Nina K. Jussila SAN PEDRO — The California 20 was a boat in demand in the 1960s, but production on the popular sailboat halted in 1975 for reasons unknown. Cal 20s are still popular today despite being out of production and were on full display during a recent sailing event in San Pedro. Cabrillo Yacht Club hosted the 56th annual Cal 20 Class Championship in Los Angeles Harbor, Sept. 22-24. Alamitos Bay Yacht Club Commodore Chuck Clay, who won the championship in the past, hoped to win it all this year but finished in second place; he also placed second in 2016. “It’s always hard to lose it after winning all the way down to the last race,” Clay told The Log. “But Keith [Ives] sailed well, and he’s a good sailor.”

Clay said after coming across some waves, Ives took the lead. Ives ended up in first place his second year in a row. The winds were steady for the first couple days of the race kicking up a bit towards the end of the second day. The winds took the championship up a notch on the final race day. “Sunday started out at about 10 knots and got up to 13-14 knots,” Clay mentioned. “There was a lot of kelp. We caught kelp, and everybody got kelp which was very frustrating.” The simple design of the Cal 20 makes this boat easy to rig and a breeze to sail. The boat’s design, which fits a two to three-person crew, provides sailing with comfort and ease. C. William Lapworth designed the Cal 20 in 1960. The fiberglass sailboats were built at Jensen Marine See CAL 20 page 25

Factory in Costa Mesa. Jensen Marine was bought out by Bangor Punta in 1965, and the factory relocated to Tampa Florida in 1981 and then relocated again to Massachusetts. The production of Cal boats ceased all together in 1989. “The Cal 20 is a great boat for One Design sailing,” Clay stated. Stephen Ashley also competed in the three-day race and agreed with Clay. “One great thing about doing a One Design fleet is it’s really easy to figure out how you are doing [during the race],” Ashley said. “With the Cal 20, it’s simple. If a guy is ahead of you, you’re losing. If a guy is behind you, you’re winning. That’s one of the things that make it fun. “Chuck’s one of the best,” Ashley added. “They’re hard boats to do really well in because you have got to be right on your game to sail against someone of his caliber.” Clay mentioned the Cal 20 is very affordable compared to other sailboats of this size. A well maintained Cal 20 can be purchased or sold for around $2,000, according to Clay. A Cal 20 with upgrades can range in price from $6,000 up to $10,000. One doesn’t necessarily need to own a Cal 20, however, to enjoy the sailboat. Ashley teaches sailing classes on the Cal 20s in Long Beach. He is a member of Shoreline Yacht Club, trustee of a Cal 20, and treasurer of the SYC Sailing Foundation as well as an instructor. The SYC Sailing Foundation is a

The Log  •  Oct. 6 - 19, 2017  •  25

501(c)3 charitable organization and maintains a fleet of Cal 20s. The boats are kept at the slips in front of Shoreline Yacht Club. The yacht club offers a place to teach sailing students in a classroom setting for the first day, and the harbor is where the students sail for the rest of the lessons. Anyone can take the seasonal classes offered May through September even without a yacht club membership. Students can continue to charter the boats on a quarterly basis based on availability at a reasonable cost following the class and after passing a safety and skipper test. One may not need to own or partially own a Cal 20 to compete in future regattas either. Currently, the rules and regulations for Cal 20 competitions require the skipper to have at least one third ownership of the boat. Ashley said the idea behind the ownership rule is to have people racing the boats who have an interest in the boats. “We want people who are invested in the boats and have a long term investment in the program,” Ashley stated. “The downside [to the ownership rule] is that the group keeps getting older every year, and there are not a lot of new sailors coming into Cal 20s at the ownership level.” Amending the bylaws to allow for more participation in Cal 20 regattas are currently being considered. “Times have changed and participation is down,” Clay said. “So we’ve got to go with the changes to keep the class alive.”

Next America’s Cup to be sailed in 75-foot monohulls SAN DIEGO (LOG News Service) — The America’s Cup is ditching catamarans in favor of 75-foot monohulls with crews of 10 to 12 governed by a stricter nationality rule than in recent regattas. America’s Cup champion Emirates Team New Zealand and the Challenger of Record, Italy’s Luna Rossa Challenge, announced the protocol for the 36th America’s Cup on Sept. 29, with more specifics to come during the next several months. Among them are the design of the new class and whether the boats will foil. So far, the AC75 promised only to be a “high performance” boat. AC75 Class concepts are due to be released Nov. 30 and the class rule is set to be published on March 31. Regardless of what the boat looks like and how it sails, the Kiwis are returning to tradition in the 166-year-old competition. Team New Zealand CEO Grant Dalton said the main reason for the switch back to monohulls was “to attract more quality challengers to the event... We think the greater sailing community relates more to a monohull.” The last time monohulls were sailed

in the America’s Cup was 2007. They were plodding compared to the multihulls that sailed in the last three regattas. Traditionalists have grumbled about the lack of tactics and that most of the crew were grinders providing power to run the hydraulics that controlled the wing sail and daggerboards. Three crew or 20 percent, whichever is higher, must be true nationals, while the rest of the crew must live in the country of a challenging yacht club for a minimum of 380 days during a two-year period between Sept. 1, 2018 and Aug. 31, 2020. The challenger trials and the 36th America’s Cup match are scheduled for early 2021, as close to Auckland as possible but not on the city’s inner harbor. If a host city agreement can’t be negotiated, or if something unforeseen occurs, the regatta will be held in Italy. The dates and venues of the America’s Cup Match and PRADA Cup will reportedly be announced Aug. 31, 2018. Luna Rossa pulled out of the 35th America’s Cup in a dispute over a midstream downsizing of boats. However, it helped the Kiwis with technology and manpower.

Scheduling changes in store for Volvo Ocean Races Stakeholders and planners are likely to implement changes in time for 2019-20 racing season. By Parimal M. Rohit ALICANTE, Spain — Stakeholders associated with the annual Volvo Ocean Race announced they will be reviewing the event’s schedule and revise the competition’s start date. The decision to change the start of the race season also resulted in Volvo Ocean Race CEO Mark Turner announcing he would step down. Altering the start of the worldwide ocean competition, which would kick in ahead of the 2019-20 season, would give the event’s officials more time to implement changes to the race schedule. The late September announcement won’t affect the upcoming competition, according to race officials. “Following discussions with key stakeholders it has been determined that additional planning time is required to implement the recently announced changes to the

race schedule,” race officials stated. “As a result, the proposed 2019-20 race in new boats will not take place as planned. A revised schedule for future Volvo Ocean Races will be announced as soon as possible.” Volvo Ocean Race officials also stated work on the new Super 60 concept, which would make upgrades to the foiling offshore monohull technology, is still ongoing. This year’s Volvo Ocean Race kicks off Oct. 22 in Alicante, Spain. The race’s 11 legs will take competing teams to a total of 13 cities this season, including Lisbon, Cape Town, Melbourne, Hong Kong, Auckland and Newport, Rhode Island. The final leg of this season’s race starts in Gothenburg, Sweden and continues to the finish line at The Hague, Netherlands. The race, in all, race covers 45,000 nautical miles around the world. There are seven professional sailing teams participating in the upcoming race: Team AkzoNobel, Dongfeng Race Team, MAPFRE, Vestas 11th Hour Racing, Sun Hung Kai/ Scallywag, Turn The Tide on Plastic and Team Brunel.

Thunderbird returned to shore from a two-day fishing excursion, Sept. 21, with 16 bluefin – including this one pictured – and two yellowtails for 16 anglers. The sportfishing boat turned around two days later for an overnighter; the 20 anglers on the Sept. 23 trip returned to shore with 15 forks, seven calico bass and one barracuda. The 2017 fishing season continues to have a decent variety of bites.

Interior Secretary orders the expansion of fishing opportunities Increased angling activities would help provide additional funding to conservation programs, according to Ryan Zinke.

NATIONWIDE — The United States must expand fishing opportunities to anglers in order to bolster funding for conservation programs, according to an order issued by Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke. Improving management of game species and their habitats is also a goal of the Trump Administration directive. Zinke’s order specifically aims to enhance conservation stewardship, increase fishing opportunities for all Americans and placed greater priority on recruiting and retaining conservationists. The Interior Secretary cited former Pres. Theodore Roosevelt’s conservationist policies and practices as a foundation for his order. “For generations, countless Americans have hunted and fished

across the nation’s natural landscapes and waters, enjoying opportunities steeped in traditions, rich in history, and integral to meeting many subsistence and sustenance needs, while also providing an effective means of managing various populations of wildlife species,” Zinke wrote in his order. “Robust and

sustainable wildlife populations contribute greatly to our Nation’s well-being.” Interior Department Order No. 3356 also stated revenue from license sales and excise taxes help fund various conservation programs, hence why a directive to increase fishing opportunities is necessary. “Through the sale of licenses and sporting equipment, and associated excise taxes, sportsmen and women have helped generate billions of dollars in conservation funding each year. Expanding hunting, fishing, and recreational opportunities will provide additional revenue for fish and wildlife conservation, and for many small rural communities across America,” Zinke’s order stated. The order went into effect immediately after Zinke signed it and officially calls for the implementation of specific department recommendations “to

enhance recreational fishing – specifically, those recommendations regarding efforts to enhance and expand recreational fishing access, where practicable.” Zinke’s order, among other items, would also allow for the National Monuments Management Plans to be amended to “include or expand hunting, recreational shooting and fishing opportunities.” The Interior Department would provide and regularly maintain an online database listing various fishing opportunities on certain federal lands or waters. Veteran and youth fishing programs would also be pursued under Zinke’s order. “The goal of attaining and sustaining healthy wildlife populations can also be achieved in concert with the varied nature of differing land uses and missions,” Zinke stated in his order.

SB 144 would allow funding program to continue through 2023. By Parimal M. Rohit SACRAMENTO — A proposal aiming to continue funding for steelhead trout conservation programs is officially on the books, as Gov. Jerry Brown signed Senate Bill 144 (SB 144) into law, Sept. 26. The new law would allow funds taken from steelhead trout reporting to continue helping pay for conservation programs. SB 144 earned the support of assembly members and state senators during the most recent legislative

session. All 40 state senators voted in favor of the bill in late May; SB 144 passed out of the Assembly by a 75-0 vote on Sept. 5. Anyone taking steelhead trout from the state’s inland waters must have a fishing report-restoration card on their possession. The base fee for the card was set at $5 in 2004; the fee has been subject to annual adjustments ever since. Funds raised from the card fee were directed toward steelhead trout conservation programs. However the program was set to end Jan. 1, 2018. SB 144 would extend the report card funding for conservation programs until Jan. 1, 2023.

The 32 anglers returned to shore with 153 bonito, 97 whitefish, 77 rockfish, 23 yellowtails, two sheephead and one kelp bass. The 2017 summer fishing season continues to be a fruitful one despite the onset of fall. Hot catches, according to a Sept. 27 daily wrap-

up of Southern California landing counts on 976-tuna.com, included rockfish (2,212 reported catches), yellowfin tuna (599) and whitefish (436). Seaforth Landing had 388 yellowfin catches and 14 bluefin, Sept. 27. Channel Islands Sportfishing reported 101 yellowtails, also on Sept. 27. More than 138,000 yellowtails were reeled in this year by Southern California’s fishing fleet, according to 976-tuna.com’s cumulative count.

Tight lines — By Parimal M. Rohit Four anglers accused of selling abalone on black market SACRAMENTO — Four suspects were arrested and charged on allegations of harvesting abalone with a recreational fishing license and selling it for profit on the black market. Wildlife officers with California’s Department of Fish and Wildlife reportedly made the arrests Sept. 20, following a five-month investigation. At least one of the suspects was convicted of similar violations in the past, according to a statement issued by DFW officials. The arrested individuals were Thepbangon Nonnarath, 48, Dennis Nonnarath, 45, Thu Thi Tran, 45 and Cuong Huu Tran, 42; all four suspects reside in or around the San Francisco Bay Area. The suspects first drew the attention of DFW officers in November 2016, when at least two of them were cited for abalone violations while fishing at Mendocino County’s Moat Creek. Officers believed the quartet of suspects was engaged in the commercial sale of recreationally harvested abalone, according to a DFW statement. Selling recreationally harvested abalone for commercial purposes is illegal in California. DFW’s five-month investigation, which launched in May, reportedly followed the quartet of suspects to popular recreational abalone destinations in Mendocino and Sonoma counties. Officers allege the suspects engaged in poaching crimes and unlawful sales of recreationally harvest abalone, among other possible violations. “The alleged abalone poaching crimes occurred at a time when abalone

are facing significant threats to their populations due to unprecedented environmental and biological stressors,” DFW staff said in a released statement. “As a result, the California Fish and Game Commission … re-adopted an emergency abalone regulation to continue the restriction of the annual abalone limit to 12 abalone per person and continue the reduced open season which is limited to May, June, August, September and October.”

By Parimal M. Rohit SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA — A fish species once in danger of collapsing is now swimming off the Southern California coast in large numbers. A study published in Royal Society Open Science declared the West Coast rockfish has rebounded after being severely overfished at the turn of the century. The finding was part of a larger report on the role marine protected areas, or MPAs, play in facilitating the recovery of diminished fish stocks. “Marine protected areas (MPAs) can facilitate recovery of diminished stocks by protecting reproductive adults.

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service report says fishing participation increased WASHINGTON, D.C. — More than 100 million people, age 16 and older, participated in fishing and other outdoorrelated activities in 2016, according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The federal survey stated there was an increase in fishing participation nationwide. About 101.6 million Americans participated outdoor activities last year, contributing about $156 billion into the economy. The Fish and Wildlife Service conduct has regularly conducted five-year surveys on the state of outdoor activity participation since 1955. The survey reviews fishing and hunting participation. “The report indicates an 8 percent increase in angling participation since 2011, from 33.1 million anglers to 35.8 million in 2016. The greatest increases in participation – 10 percent – were seen in the Great Lakes area. Total expenditures by anglers nationwide rose 2 percent from 2011 to 2016, from $45 billion to $46.1 billion,” Fish and Wildlife Service staff stated in a released statement.

effectively augment fisheries, however, reproductive output must increase within the bounds of MPAs so that larvae can be exported to surrounding areas and seed the region,” researchers associated with the study stated. Scientist from National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), University of San Diego and University of Massachusetts Amherst conducted the study. “Protecting important ocean habitat promotes the long-term recovery of rockfish such as cowcod and bocaccio that have long been a staple of West Coast fishermen. Favorable ocean conditions also played a role,” a NOAA statement said. “West Coast rockfish species in deep collapse only 20 years ago have multiplied rapidly in large marine protected areas off Southern California, likely seeding surrounding waters with enough offspring to SeeROCKFISH page 28

There is still much work to be done, however, to truly understand the benefits of an MPA, according to study. “One difficulty in evaluating MPA effects has been a lack of robust sampling designs. MPA impacts may be masked or misinterpreted if, for example, samples are collected only within MPA bounds without outside control locations,” scientists stated in their report. “Furthermore, inside and outside locations should The population of West Coast rockfish has reportedly rebounded with the help of Marine Protected Areas, according to a NOAA report. be paired such that habitat conditions are similar inside and outside of MPAs. “An ideal set-up will monitor both the protected conservation areas,” NOAA before and after MPA establishment to said in its statement of the study. “Species determine if sample (e.g. fish abundances) that were not historically fished increased trajectories diverge inside and outside at about the same rate both inside and following placement of MPAs,” scientists outside the protected areas, indicating continued in their report. that rockfish spawning was high within Scientists ultimately stated their study the protected areas.”

(Clockwise from top right) The nearshore yellowfin bite continues to remain hot in Southern California, as Josh Lish posted this photo of a potentially record-setting catch by Bo Scanlon. The yellowtail, which was reeled in just off the Oceanside coast, weighed in at 265 pounds, which would be a California record. An angler set the most recent state mark in 1984, when he reeled in a 239-pound yellowtail near Catalina Island. The current world record for a yellowtail catch was set in 2012, when an angler brought a 427-pounder to a scale in Puerto Vallarta. Meanwhile a Sept. 28 three-quarter-day fishing trip aboard Stardust (out of Santa Barbara) yielded 54 lingcod, 63 reds, 159 coppers and 37 assorted rockfish for 27 anglers. Wahoo was among the featured catches aboard a Sept. 22 fishing expedition aboard Excel out of San Diego. Victory sportfishing out of Long Beach reported, sheephead, among other catches, during a Sept. 27 fishing trip.

OCEAN FISHING REPORT By Terrence Berg 976-TUNA.com YELLOWFIN UPDATE: The yellowfin tuna bite for the San Diego and Oceanside boats has lulled a little this week during the in-between moon phase. The yellowfin along with yellowtail, Dorado, and skipjack are still showing in fair numbers (about one to two fish per rod), but there have not been near as many limit-style trips as the previous week. This action is expected to increase again as we move into the full moon next week. Some typical boat counts from the last few days tell the story: Liberty out of Fisherman’s Landing had 35 anglers on its Sept. 26 three-quarter-day trip and landed 89 yellowfin tuna. San Diego out of Seaforth Sportfishing had 28 anglers on its Sept. 26 three-quarter-day trip and landed 26 yellowfin and three skipjack. The three-quarter-day boat the Point Loma, out of Point Loma Sportfishing, had 21 anglers on Sept. 25 and landed 28 skipjack, three Dorado, and one yellowtail. Daiwa Pacific out of H&M Landing had 27 anglers on its Sept. 26 three-quarter-day and landed just four yellowfin. On one of the better overnight trips in recent days, Pegasus out of Fisherman’s Landing had 15 anglers on its Sept. 26 trip and landed limits of 75 yellowfin.

Grande out of Point Loma Sportfishing had 17 anglers on its Sept. 26 overnight trip and landed 16 yellowfin, six Dorado, two skipjack, and one yellowtail. On a 1.5-day trip, Eclipse out of Seaforth

BLUEFIN BITE ALSO BACKS OFF: Boats out of San Diego, Orange and Los Angeles counties targeting the trophy bluefin off the coast also saw a pretty dramatic downturn in the action in recent days. Thunderbird out of Davey’s Locker has been making regular overnight trips out off San Clemente for the big bluefin, but they haven’t had a productive trip since last week’s two-day trip, and it only produced 16 bluefin for the 16 anglers on board. There was one bluefin on the Sept. 24 overnight with 12 anglers, and 14 yellowtails were caught; the Sept. 26 overnight had 26 anglers who landed 26 yellowtails. Freedom out of 22nd Street Landing has been focusing its overnight trips on yellowtail, bass, and bottom fish around San Clemente Island, with good action there. The last bluefin report aboard Freedom was Sept. 19. On the Sept. 26 overnight, 23 anglers landed 58 yellowtails and 42 bonito; the Sept. 25 1.5-day trip with 35 anglers produced 131 yellowtails, 44 bonito, 16 sheephead, and two barracuda. CATALINA UPDATE: The three-quarter- and fullday boats running out to Catalina Island continue to see very good bonito action and a decent pick on yellowtail, bass, and bottom fish action. Native Sun out of 22nd Street Landing had 32 anglers on its Sept. 26 three-quarter-day trip and landed 45 bonito, five yellowtails, and five calico bass. Enterprise out of Pierpoint Landing had 15 anglers on its Sept. 26 three-quarter-day trip this week and landed limits of 75 bonito, five calico bass, and four yellowtails. Sport King out of LA

VENTURA-SANTA BARBARA UPDATE: The Ventura and Santa Barbara Landings’ boats continue to have good rockfish action along with pretty good yellowtail and calico bass fishing. Island Tak out of Channel Islands Sportfishing had 10 anglers on its Sept. 26 full-day trip and landed 64 yellowtails and 37 calico bass. The Sept. 26 three-quarter-day trip on Gentleman produced 110 whitefish, 25 rockfish, 17 yellowtails, 17 calico bass, 10 perch, seven sheephead, and two bonito. At Ventura Sportfishing, Island Spirit had 24 anglers on its Sept. 26 all-day trip and landed 200 rockfish, 21 lingcod, 15 whitefish, and one bonito. On Sept. 24, Pacific Eagle had 24 anglers on its full-day jaunt and landed 76 yellowtail and seven bonito. At Hook’s Landing, New Hustler was out Sept. 25 with just two anglers and landed limits of 20 rockfish, 20 bonito, five whitefish, one sheephead, and one halibut.

on the Sept. 27 trip and caught 160 rockfish and nine lingcod to 15 pounds. On Sept. 26, Endeavor had 15 anglers who landed 130 rockcod, 20 assorted rockfish, and 13 lings, including a 20-pounder. At Patriot Sportfishing in Avila Beach, Phenix had 17 anglers on a full-day Sept. 26 trip and landed 145 rockfish, 25 lings, 10 bocaccio, 10 bolina, and three red rock cod. Flying Fish had 17 anglers on its Sept. 26 half-day and had limits of 170 rockfish and 12 lings. The local surf fishing remains good for perch on bloodworms and lugworms. There are also a few stripers showing on Rapalas, and Kenny Barker of Morro Bay had three stripers at Dog Beach last week to about 5 pounds.

AVILA BEACH-MORRO BAY NEWS: The rockfish bite remains very good to excellent with most boats posting full limits of rockfish. The lingcod action is still up and down, but there are a few on most trips. Fiesta out of Virg’s Landing ran a long-range private charter up to Cape San Martin, Sept. 23, and the 25 anglers scored 200 reds, 25 boccacio, 20 coppers, 20 lings, four assorted rockfish, and one rock sole.
