Jetty boat rescue comes right on time
Lifeguard camp gets kids ready for rescues By Kennedy Meehan Intern
By Terry Lane Staff Writer
A local tow boat captain said that a recent rescue of a disabled boat in the Masonboro Inlet saved the family from serious injury. Sea Tow of Wrightsville Beach Capt. Ryan Saporito said the June 18 rescue of the father and his three sons came just as the family out on a day of fishing were about to be thrown from the fishing boat and onto the rocks of the jetty. A good samaritan called in the disabled boat right before it hit the rocks of the jetty, Saporito said, as the 22-foot center console boat was adrift in the rough waters. Saproito said that the

rescue tow arrived to rough conditions, with three-to-four foot waves, 15 knot winds and a rising tide. “All of those forces were pushing the boat in one direction,” Ryan said. The boat was already on the rocks when Saporito’s boat arrived. “It was stable until a set of five foot waves washed it further up the rocks, filled it with water and put it on a 70 degree angle.” That set of waves threw out the boat’s captain, the father who had his three sons with him on the trip. n See RESCUE Page 2

CFCC student creates sustainable doghouse
With fresh beer brewed on site, craft beer breweries are a growing trend in the Wilmington area, and the opening of a new brewery in July will bring the brewery trend right up to Wrightsville Beach’s doorstep. Under development for months, owners of the Waterman’s Brewery at 1610 Pavilion Place spent this week making final preparations for a grand opening expected as early as July 4. Bob High, one of the brewery’s owners, said they hoped sharing a birthday with America would be a nice tradition for the bar. “We’d love to be able to celebrate our anniversary on July 4th every year,” High said. The opening of Waterman’s Brewery continues the growing trend of craft beer brewing in Wilmington. The Cape Fear Craft Beer Alliance, which represents brewers in three counties, said that Waterman’s will be the 10th brewery in Wilmington. There are breweries in Carolina Beach and Southport and seven more are under n See WATERMAN Page 2
WB readies for 20,000 July 4th visitors By Terry Lane Staff Writer
Staff Report For her capstone project in her Sustainability Technologies class, Cape Fear Community College student Leigh Humphries was inspired by nature. Humphries chose an environmentally responsible building material to construct a doghouse - hemp. The recent graduate sought hempcrete to “promote sustainable building techniques and materials through outreach and public awareness.” Hempcrete is created by mixing the hemp core or ‘shiv’ from the hemp plant with a lime-based binder. This substance not only creates a negative carbon footprint, but it is also easier and more versatile to work with than standard concrete. Noted as a very durable, lightweight, breathable material, hempcrete lets water in without rotting, and is fire, pest, and mold resistant. Hemp grows to maturity in just 14 weeks, making it a truly sustainable substance. It requires very little fertilizer, and is deep rooting which returns nutrients to the soil. Humphries sourced her hemp material from a firm based in Kentucky.
With more than 20,000 people expected to visit Wrightsville Beach this week, the town is preparing for what most consider the busiest weekend of the year. “You can tell by the water production,” said town manager Tim Owens. “Where we use anywhere from 400,000 - 500,000 gallons of water on a normal day, the town will process as many as two million gallons a day during the Fourth of July weekend." There are no formal festivities planned, as the regional fireworks display is hosted in downtown Wilmington. However, there is one big activity in the area, as thousands are expected to go to

“We knew we had to act fast at that point,” Saporito said. ‘It wasn’t safe to remove the boat, we had to get the passengers off first.” Saporito said had the tow boat not arrived when it did, the boaters could have suffered serious injury. “They weren’t far from falling out,” Saporito said. “With the conditions that were there, had we not been on-scene, you’re looking at four people, getting hit with five foot waves over and over while stuck on the rocks. Those waves would have slammed them back into the rocks with 20 feet of force. We’re lucky to have the outcome we did.” The boat was equipped with a GPS-enabled trolling motor that was supposed to hold the boat in one position. However, the system failed and the captain wasn’t able to start the boat’s engine
before it hit the rocks, Saporito said. Saporito said the incident showed the need for boaters to be prepared, especially when in rough current like the Masonboro Inlet. “That incident alone demonstrates the need for people boating in the area to have a
contingency plan,” he said.
Diver dies off Masonboro In an unrelated incident, a diver died on Thursday, June 22 after being rescued by the U.S. Coast Guard from a boat more than 30 miles off the coast of Masonboro Island.
The Coast Guard said that the diver had been underwater for more than 40 minutes when the boat captain called. The diver was retrieved and brought to the surface before the Coast Guard arrived. The diver was airlifted to Dosher Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

Ocean Rescue Junior Lifeguard Program is growing fast, now enrolling up to 50 campers, said Lindsey Gerkens. Erin Fitzpatrick, a third year camper, said that she loves the interaction and learning experiences on how to do lifesaving techniques such as CPR and rescuing. Her favorite drill involves working together with the lifeguards to help save a passed out victim. Unlike Fitzpatrick, Sarah Parker Harris is a first year camper and says that the camp is everything and more than what she had expected. “I love that we have the opportunity to know what to do in certain situations in the water, and the instructors make it really fun. We play a lot of games and help each other out in all the drills,” Harris said. “I love that it’s not too serious.” Both campers look forward to learning new skills, but most

To brew the beer, Waterman’s brought in Zac Brown, whose past brewing experience includes the Magnolia Brewing Company in San Francisco. “We’ll have everything from light, dark, hoppy, and all the way in between,” Brown said. The brewery is planning on having at least three beers brewed on site for the opening and expect to have a rotation of as many as six in a few weeks. The brewery will also served other locally brewed beers. Another unique offering will be unique coffee brews, including cold coffee that can be served from the tap. Waterman’s Brewery will include a kitchen, though High emphasizes that the establishment’s focus will be brewing.

As a part of this year’s third annual Wrightsville Beach Ocean Rescue Junior Lifeguard Program, non-profit organization Block the Blade has paired with WBOR and the parks and recreation department in efforts to educate their campers on skin cancer awareness. “Our new partnership with Block the Blade has been awesome, not only with educating our campers about skin cancer awareness, but also by donating hats and sun screen, so after they learn about it, they can actually apply it,” Lindsey Gerkens said. “It’s really important for these Wrightsville locals to learn about ocean safety, such as safely getting out of a rip current,” Gerkens said. “But my main goal is that every camper leaves with a new appreciation for the ocean and beach.”
to go with the menu items. “We’re not putting food in front, we’re letting beer be the driver,” High said. “That will give us an opportunity to have fun with the menu.

Editorial/Opinion Around the beach
Public can help county control pesky mosquitos in heat of summer Mosquito education and monitoring are top priorities for New Hanover County Health Department’s Vector Control, and this week’s “National Mosquito Control Awareness Week” allows for greater awareness about the work of vector control and the steps all residents need to take to help control the county’s mosquito population. “It’s time to look around your yard, because mosquito control starts at home,” said Marie Hemmen, Environmental Health Specialist of New Hanover County Vector Control. “All mosquitoes require water to breed, so limiting water-filled containers where mosquitoes can live around your home or place of business is an important way of reducing their populations.” The Asian tiger mosquito is the number one nuisance pest in North Carolina and breeds in man-made containers.
“Controlling these mosquitoes is the responsibility of the homeowner,” said Hemmen. “If every citizen takes the time to tip and toss outdoor containers, progress can be made towards preventing this pest.”
•C lear roof gutters of debris.
Below are important mosquito protections that every resident can take:
•P lug tree holes.
• Remove water from all containers (tip and toss) and store these containers inside or under cover. • Even a small amount of water (<1/8 inch) can breed hundreds of mosquitoes. So tip and toss or clean out items like saucers under flower pots, children’s toys, buckets, bottles, overturned garbage can lids, tarps covering woodpiles, pet water dishes, and tires. • Drill holes in the bottom of recycling containers.
• Change the water in bird baths at least once a week. • Turn canoes and other boats over so they do not collect water. • Reduce time spent outdoors, particularly in early morning and early evening hours when mosquitoes are most active. • U se screened windows and doors and make sure screens fit tightly and are not torn. • Wear light-colored long pants and long-sleeved shirts. • A pply mosquito repellent containing active ingredients such as DEET, Oil of Lemon Eucalyptus, Picaridin, or IR3535 to exposed skin areas following the label directions.

Business owners, clergy, politicians and students are all invited, but you don’t need a title, just an idea. I’ll even help you write if you think you could use the help. I’m willing to consider columns on almost any topic, under a few conditions. All topics must be
local or regional. They also need to be neutral. No attacks on local politicians, organizations or businesses. No overt promotion of a business or a cause. It should present a somewhat balanced view, even if you are promoting one side of the issue. Of course, our Letters to the Editor section is also available if you only have a little, and not a lot, to say. If you’re interested, write me at terrylane@luminanews.com or call (910) 719-9180.

Hook, Line & Sinker Weather Cooperating for First Weekend of July By Skylar Walters
The weather is looking really fantastic for the upcoming, and probably the busiest, weekend of the year. July 1st arrives on Saturday and whether you’re planning a cookout with family or boating either inshore or offshore, unless something drastically changes, those who enjoy the outdoors are in for a real treat. Those who are hoping for some decent conditions to wet a line are truly in for a treat as wind and sea conditions are forecast to be slight to nonexistent. Water temperatures are reading in the upper seventies to lower eighties and water conditions appear to have rebounded from last week’s onslaught of strong southerly winds. Inshore, the red drum fishing has really taken off, with lots of over slot fish being encountered around the jetties of Masonboro Inlet. Fresh cut bait has been the choice of fishermen but live finger mullet are also working. Just make sure to have tackle stout enough to land these fish quickly so they can be released in good health. Sharks are plentiful around the inlets aas well and will readily devour a slow or injured redfish. Some smaller slot sized fish are being caught on the same baits around the docks and in the creeks, mainly during the higher water. Soft artificial baits are also working for anglers using them as are topwater baits. Flounder fishing has also picked up the pace, with lots of keeper fish being reported coming from the inlets and creeks, especially those with some decent mud banks in the vicinity. Finger mullet and mud minnows on Carolina Rigs are a hard tactic to beat but artificial baits are also working. Fishing waters that have a steady current, either rising or falling, is a necessity, as the flounder are looking for anything relief from the warm conditions. Cut bait such as fresh shrimp and fish has been working very good for black drum, which have also been plentiful in the creeks and waterway. Anglers targeting sheephead have been having good

luck fishing the bridge pilings as well as the pilings of the area docks as long as they have some significant growth on them. One arm bandits are the baits of choice and can be easily caught along the marsh during times of low tide. Tackle rigged with braid is your best choice as the fish like to wrap lines around the pilings when hooked and braid will help with cutoffs. Along the beach, some spanish mackerel are still being encountered by those trolling Clark Spoons on weights and planers, with better times for fishing being early and late in the day. A few king mackerel have been caught by live baiters within three miles of the inlet, but the better fishing has been in the five to ten mile range, with both structure and baitfish in the area being a necessity. Areas around the 23 Mile Rock have been holding some king mackerel and a few sporadic dolphin, but with water temperatures heating up, expect the inshore dolphin encounters to also heat up as well as the occasional sailfish. Bottom fishermen have been reporting some decent bottom fishing in depths starting at 80 feet deep but the sharks have also taken up residence and can become a quick nuisance. Changing locations several times can sometimes get anglers out them, but often anglers need to seek other locations with water depths greater than 100 feet. Once away from the sharks, the grouper fishing has been decent and angles are reporting some very large grunts. Gulf Stream fishing has been hit or miss as water temperatures have caused the fish to be spread out. Anglers who find weed lines or temperature breaks have been reporting some good action from dolphin with an occasional wahoo and blackfin tuna with a stray billfish being reported. With the holiday weekend quickly approaching, anglers and boaters especially, need to be reminding of the increased water traffic that will be occurring for the next couple of weeks.

Neighborhood Airlie Gardens opens 2017 summer art exhibit ‘Imagine’
A
irlie Gardens’ 2017 Summer Art Exhibit “Imagine” opened this week and will run through the end of September. The exhibit features an eclectic assortment of large, colorful, whimsical pieces often constructed of recycled and repurposed materials by artist Matthew Leavell. Leavell, a sculptor currently based out of Mobjack, Virginia, with roots in the Port City, specializes in steel, cast iron, wood and glass mediums. The large-scale installments consist of colorful florals and a variety of artistic creations that will spark curiosity and inspire. “Imagine” will be on display throughout the gardens, and will be included in the price of admission. Kids can also participate in a scavenger hunt during the exhibit. Leavell is a self-taught, Mobjack, Virginia based artist currently focusing on the creation of small and medium scale sculpture in steel, cast iron, wood and glass. He primarily utilizes salvaged and recycled materials, preferring raw materials that bring their own history, character, and soul to a new work of art. Matthew’s pieces are often created using recycled, salvaged, and upcycled metal components from various sources. He sees a neglected, rusting pile of steel as a literal representation of someone’s broken or abandoned dreams. Purchasing these materials and through hard work, inspiration, creativity, and persistence creating an entirely new and beautiful work of art, is not only a personally fulfilling process, but one that stands as an analogy of the nature of life in general.
