FROM THE HELM

Torn Sails, Engine Fails, and Whale Tales

As I sit down to write my monthly message in a bottle to you, dear reader, my spring boating experiences blur together in my memory. That May mojo whips us Cascadian boaters into some kind of frenzy, doesn’t it? Norris Comer First off, I tore through my first sail on a racecourse! To be precise, my first two during the Blakely Rock Benefit Race. Ok, it wasn’t a solo effort, for I had the help of fellow R2AK teammate/trainee Li Sung, Ruf Duck trimaran owner and Northwest Multihull Association president Jeff Oaklief, and Jeff’s son Jonah. Together, not only did we tear up our mainsail, but also the jibe. Looking back, our class of one guaranteed both a first and last place. Do the race minutiae matter too much in that case? Although not ideal for a race program or pocketbooks, dealing with curveballs like blown-out sails in wet weather and gnarly gusts are perfect R2AK and life training, no? Thank you, Pacific Northwest. Second, I’m in the grips of what I’m tempted to call tulip trouble. No, it’s not romance related, it’s about our poor boats and timing! The tulips start to bloom when the boat projects start to mount up around here. First on my docket of to-dos was to get my trusty old Yamaha 9.9 outboard working again on my for-fun sailboat, a 1970 Albin Vega I named Huldra. I did what any sensible boater would do: bust the motor open, fail to fix it, make a big mess, then throw it at a mechanic to officially declare it deceased. Word to the wise, when sludge comes out and the motor’s seals aren’t the problem, and when the mechanic says, “I haven’t seen one of those since the '80s!” when you show him or her your motor,

the outlook is grim. Now I am scrounging around for a good hand-me-down replacement. Feel free to reach out if you have a long shaft, under 10 horsepower lying around… Third, and certainly worth a mention, are the whales. How can I not? The large baleen whales are passing through en route to their summer feeding frenzy in Alaska, and the orcas chasing king salmon are almost common sights from the SeattleBainbridge ferry. Most Paciﬁc Northwest of them all may be the barnacle-encrusted gray whales, for they feed upon critters in our Puget Sound right oﬀ the beaches, often with adorable calf in tow. Megafauna like these cetaceans are a rough indication of a productive food chain and healthy ecosystem, or so I learned in my past life as an oceanographer. If that’s the case, none of us have a dire enough excuse to not spend at least some of our time whale watching, from deck or otherwise. Enjoy, and protect, the jackpot of life around us. We won the lottery just by living here! As always, Northwest boaters have much to be thankful for. The spring may be a little colder than we like sometimes, but that’s the price of snow-capped views. The rain may be a little much, but in exchange we get green forests and salmon-ready rivers. There may be spring boat troubles, but there are also tulips. We’re living the dream, friends, and need to appreciate it as much as we can. If you see any of the NWY crew around the upcoming Opening Day celebrations (May 5), Trawlerfest in Bremerton (May 1-5), the new Anacortes Boat & Yacht Show (May 17-20), or just on the water aboard our publisher Michelle’s Bayliner Northwest, be sure to give a us a salty ahoy!

Splish Splash, We’re Paddling Fast The Northwest Paddling Festival Returns For Its 8th Year By Eva Seelye

Kicking oﬀ the on-water fun of summer is the 8th annual Northwest Paddling Festival, May 11 and 12 at Lake Sammamish State Park in Issaquah, Washington. Considered the largest of its kind in the Paciﬁc Northwest, this is a celebration of all things paddle sports with two full days of kayak tours, stand up paddleboard (SUP) yoga classes, seminars, and more. Free seminars are available on Saturday, May 12. Choose between Sea Kayak Camping 101, Back Country Cooking; Dressing for Paddle Sports; Choosing the Right Kayak; Eight Essential SUP Yoga Poses; Ease of Family Paddling; and Kayak Fishing.

with their parents. Children younger than eight can still get in on all the aquatic fun by testing out the Aqua Paddler paddle boats. Interested in showing oﬀ your mad paddling skills? Sign up for the Northwest Paddle Challenge or watch from the shore as kayakers, stand up paddleboarders, and outriggers cruise through this three-lap, six-mile, spectator-friendly race. There’s also a shorter, two-mile race option. Preregister online for Friday, Saturday, or both at northwestpaddlingfestival.com; or register at the event. For $35, racers will receive a competitor race T-shirt and wrist band for on-water demos. If you’re not racing, there is a $10 fee to demo kayaks, stand up paddleboards, and canoes. Parking is available at Lake Sammamish State Park using a Discover Pass. Check out northwestpaddlingfestival.com for the complete schedule, seminar descriptions, or to register for the race.

The annual Leukemia Cup Regatta is one of the standout charity races of Puget Sound. The popular event benefits the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) that fights to create a world without blood cancers. The success of the race is in part thanks to a partnership with Elliott Bay Marina, which has fully embraced the event as a day-long celebration and kickoff to the popular casual summer race series, the Downtown Sailing Series. Slated for June 9 this year, registration for the Leukemia Cup is open now. The most direct way to participate is to register your boat online (registration links available at leukemiacup.org). If you don’t own a boat or are less of a sailor yourself, you can also donate online and join the land-based fun as well. What’s more, younger sailors can support LLS by participating in a May 20 Seattle Yacht Club Junior Regatta! This event is made possible in part by the Elliott Bay Marina Leukemia Cup Regatta Committee members: Brandon Baker, Phil Calvert, Dwight Jones, Christina Marie Kimball, Tom Leonard, Brent Reys, Matthew Wood, and Shaun Wurzner. Special thanks also go to Boat Insurance Agency, SeaGlass Wines, Sterling Marine Services, and Tacoma Firelogs.

2018 Salmon Season Set

By Eva Seelye

We all know the feeling of bringing in a big one!

After much debate over the looming threat of declining salmon populations, the Pacific Fishery Management Council came to an agreement for the 2018 fishing season that aims to meet conservation goals for wild fish while also providing fishing opportunities on healthy salmon runs. Chinook and coho salmon are expected to have low return rates to Washington rivers this season. The culprit? It’s unfortunately not one but a series of contributing factors. Unfavorable environmental conditions over the years have resulted in loss of salmon habitat - severe flooding and warm ocean

waters have affected these areas, reducing the number of returning salmon over time. Additionally the “population explosion” of seals and sea lions “and the needs of the endangered southern resident killer whales are the real challenges facing us today,” states chair of Northwest Indian Fisheries Commission Lorraine Loomis. Ron Warren , head of the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife’s (WDFW) fish program, dwells on this ongoing loss. “It’s critical that we ensure fisheries are consistent with ongoing efforts to protect and rebuild wild salmon stocks,” he urges. But even with these recovery efforts, salmon habitats continue to decline. These low return rates prompted state and tribal fishery managers to come together to protect these wild fish that are a part of the Pacific Northwest’s identity. Fishing opportunities will be limited in many areas. One such outcome, for example, will be fewer opportunities for recreational anglers to fish for Chinook off Washington’s coast and along the Columbia River. To protect weak stocks, tribal fisheries will also be restricted in certain areas. Another result will be limited fisheries in areas where southern resident killer whales typically feed. This will minimize the negative effects of boat presence and noise, as well as decrease competition for Chinook and other salmon varieties in areas critical to declining whale populations. Washington’s ocean water Chinook catch quota for the 2018-2019 season is 27,500 fish. At last year’s quota of 45,000, recreational fishers are looking at a quota drop of 60 percent this season. Last year’s quota of 42,000 coho will follow anglers into this season with no quota cuts. Navigate to the WDFW website for a preview into the 2018-2019 season. You can read up on additional quotas and opening days for locations in Puget Sound, Grays Harbor, Willapa Bay, and the Columbia River. Information will be available in the 2018-2019 Washington Sport Fishing Rules pamphlet in June.

Longitude by Dava Sobel By Greg Van Belle

In the mid-‘90s, I was living on Maui and teaching surﬁng to happily sunburned tourists. Late one afternoon, as we paddled out for a quick sunset session, a small sloop crested the horizon and picked its way through the reef, dropping anchor a hundred yards oﬀ shore. We caught a few waves and headed back to the beach, where we met the crew of this newly arrived boat. It turned out the three young men had bought their Catalina 27 in Long Beach, California, loaded it

with canned chili and Gatorade, and headed southwest for Hawaii. The boat they purchased had no electronics, no radio, and just a few ratty sails. Running into the Hawaiian Islands was just an example of the pure dumb luck that 20-year-olds seem to ﬁnd in this world. As they worked their way through our case of Heineken, I asked one of them how they managed to navigate to the islands. “It was easy,” he said. “We just followed the jet contrails.”

I think about those lucky idiots a lot. And as I sit onboard tonight, having just ﬁnished installing our new chartplotter, they are newly on my mind because I am settling in to read Dava Sobel’s wonderful book Longitude. Those young men deﬁnitely played a risky hand, navigating by compass and following the occasional white

line of exhaust in the sky above them. If they missed the Hawaiian Islands there was a good chance they would have ended up dying of thirst somewhere in the South Paciﬁc. Take away the jet contrails, and they were taking the same risk early explorers took: setting sail over the horizon, making Continued on Page 24

Longitude by Dava Sobel Continued from Page 22

John Harrison

by using the sun and stars to ﬁx themselves on one parallel. It was longitude that presented the biggest challenge because each line of longitude could represent anywhere from 68 miles at the equator to essentially zero at the poles. Determining longitude required a very complicated equation combining celestial observation, distance traveled, and two

educated guesses as to where they were at any given time. The problem of longitude vexed mariners and scientists for centuries. Latitude was relatively easy. As early as A.D. 150, Ptolemy ﬁgured that the zero-degree parallel was at the equator. Each line of latitude was separated by an even 15 degrees. Columbus and other early explorers sailed east to west

hyper-accurate time measurements: one at a fixed location and one onboard the ship. Celestial navigation was already understood. Distance logs were well sorted out. It was the accurate measure of time that would be the breakthrough mariners needed. Sobel’s book beautifully tells the stories of the men whose often contradictory efforts led to our modern understanding of the imaginary lines that girdle the globe. We get the history and the science. And at each step of the development of understanding we see how these discoveries changed exploration, shipping, and warfare. Prior to understanding longitude, for example, ships were bound to well-worn trade routes between known ports. This made for easy plunder: pirates merely waited at the tail end of a tradewind path for laden ships to sail into their traps. These routes were also wildly inefficient, but deviating from them presented the very real danger of shipwreck or being lost at sea. In 1714, after a particularly embarrassing and deadly shipwreck, the English Parliament implemented the Longitude Act, offering a substantial prize for the solution to the longitude problem. Much as the cure for scurvy would greatly benefit the country that discovered it, understanding longitude would open the globe up and reap tremendous rewards for England. Every time we reach port safely and on time we can thank an uneducated woodworker named John Harrison, who invented the first clock able to withstand the harsh conditions at sea while keeping accurate time. From his invention we gained not only the ability to safely and accurately navigate in open ocean but also time zones and modern mechanical clocks. Longitude is simply a wonderful book that walks the reader through the science, politics, and beauty of the greatest navigational advancement in history. Once you have read it you will pause at every globe you see and marvel at the image on your chartplotter. It is a history lesson that lays bare how quickly we have gone from the dark ages of navigation to where we are today.

My Boat Story

Literary License, Unlimited Tonnage By Greg Van Belle

It took me three days after my dad died before I could go into his workshop. When I opened the door I was faced with tools scattered everywhere, half-completed art projects, supplies and lumber staged for some project he had planned. It was chaotic but beautiful. Late in life, as Parkinson’s got the better of him, this is how his world began to look. Tools and supplies with great intentions were left in a state of half-completion. He was no longer able to focus long enough to bring ideas from his head to reality. I know he could see what he wanted to create, but his body and brain fought him. In the chaos of broken tools, discarded sawblades, and empty tubes of thalo green paint, I could still see the order and the logic of it, but just barely. When I was a kid our garage was so strictly organized as to deter me from even using a handsaw. The black outline of the missing tool would give me away. Now saws and hammers were left everywhere. “He would hate this,” I said to myself. After a few minutes spent deciding whether to start cleaning, I noticed the pile of rags and tarps in the corner, under which

was the wooden pram we built a few years before. Cleaning and organizing his other things was a therapeutic way to stay busy in the days immediately after his death, but something about that nine-foot dinghy buried in the detritus of his workshop stopped me cold. I couldn’t bring myself to look. I loved that boat. We built it together. It sailed like a dream, rowed perfectly, and looked as salty as you could want. Boats, and that little boat in particular, presented us with one of the few meaningful connections the two of us had. In fact, other than conversations about medications and doctor visits, boats were the only topic we ever really agreed on. And yet, I never really understood my dad’s fascination with boats. I know now that it came to the surface far differently than my own. He never owned a boat until late in life. He didn’t grow up sailing. And despite living in full view of Puget Sound, he never seemed all that interested in boating as a hobby. A decade ago he had me find him a fishing boat, which I happily did. In two years of ownership he neglected it, let it slip anchor and wash up on the beach, and basically ignored it before telling me to get

it out of his driveway. My brother and I once took him sailing in the Gulf Islands, a trip he professed to enjoy but seemed to sleepwalk through. He never once took the helm. I turned my childhood fascination with boats into a full blown adult obsession. My dad somehow seemed content with the idea of boats. Going through his things after he passed away, I found an old dog-eared copy of Don Casey’s This Old Boat and a couple of Nigel Calder’s books on boat maintenance. These were casual reading for him. He loved the thought of boats. He loved the craftsmanship and the lore, but he was never a boater despite every opportunity. Years earlier, more focused and more in control of his fine motor skills, Dad built himself a wooden kayak. It was the most beautiful boat I had ever seen, and I still don’t understand how one person can turn strips of five different types of wood into a functional water craft. He paddled it once that I know of, a few feet from shore in the calm water of the bay in front of his house. Now it hangs in the rafters, covered with a plastic tarp and full of sawdust. He was strangely content to Continued on Page 30

have made it, even if he never used it. Even today I have no idea what to do with that kayak. When I finally pulled the rags and tarps off the boat in the corner, revealing its perfect cherry wood gunwales, exquisite brass fittings, and perfectly finished white paint, I started to make sense of things as I sat and sobbed. This little boat was everything I loved about my dad. My dad was always reaching. He was never satisfied with anything, which is a blessing in business and a curse in family life. I think that for him having a boat of any size and shape gave him a window he could always open. There is something freeing about knowing you can cast off and sail away even if you have no intention of doing so. Or maybe boats, stereotypical toys of the wealthy, always seemed like a dream for an immigrant contractor who spent most of his adult life working 60 hour weeks. I caught myself, as I gathered all of the parts to the rig, wishing Dad got the chance to really enjoy the boats that he built. But of course he did enjoy them. He created them from nothing. Though he rarely sailed or paddled them, he did know the joy of taking In the garage, lovingly cared for.

to the water in a craft that he built with his own hands. He got to see his grandkids ﬂoat around on hot summer afternoons. He watched as I pushed her to the limit and capsized her. Only now can I imagine his pride in those moments. And I think he would enjoy where that little pram is enjoying its second wind, as the tender for my own boat. I like to watch it quietly surf oﬀ our stern as we make our way through the Puget Sound. She seems happier out there, splashing around in our wake. Sometimes the idea of a boat is enough, but I wish he had experienced the sound of water rushing past the hull with nothing but horizon in front of him.

The Great Paciﬁc Garbage Patch: The Facts

By Evin Moore

A sailor transiting from Puget Sound to Hawaii might not even notice it with a naked eye, but the Great Pacific Garbage Patch (GPGP) is undeniably on the route and growing. Caught in the North Pacific Gyre is an area of plastic debris that is far larger than previously thought and growing every day. The GPGP contains plastic from the last four decades and all the countries on the Pacific Rim. A study published by Scientific Reports in late March concluded that the patch had an area of over 600,000 square miles, or an area twice the size of Texas. Estimations of its weight range from 80,000 tons to 7 million tons. However, the “Garbage Patch” is a bit of a misnomer: the patch is not a solid field of plastic, but closer to a soup of plastic debris mostly floating just below the surface of the water. Satellites can’t see it and radar can’t detect it. There are large pieces of plastic, fishing nets, and water bottles, but much of the plastic are pieces the size of confetti or smaller. The area of the patch is ascertained using in situ water samples, which is why its size is difficult to determine. These microplastics and microfibers may be difficult to see, but they may be more dangerous to the environment than their macro-sized counterparts as they are readily ingested by plankton, the basis of the marine food chain. Efforts to clean the ocean of microplastics have been steadily growing. Fraser Yachts announced a partnership with The Plastics Oceans Foundation, a global network of independent nonprofits and charitable organizations devoted to changing the world’s attitude toward plastic waste. This is just one of many notable industry examples. “Every year we are producing more than 300 million tonnes (270 million tons) of plastic, half of this is designed for single use, and each year around 8 million tonnes of it ends up in our oceans,” said David Jones of the Plastic Oceans Foundation in a press release. “We are genuinely thrilled that a prestigious company like Fraser Yachts

has shown so much enthusiasm for what we are trying to achieve and has agreed to commit resources and to use its global voice to help us change the way we deal with plastic waste.” Raphael Sauleau, Chief Executive Oﬃcer of Fraser Yachts, also voiced his opinion in the same press release, “We are always looking for

ways to protect the environment and give back to the oceans that we make our livelihood from; we want to make sure that the oceans remain a beautiful place for many people to enjoy for future generations... we know that this topic is also close to the hearts of our clients and we look forward to working with them on various initiatives.”

While the task of cleaning the oceans may seem herculean, the combined eﬀorts of all segments of society may just be the key to ending the excessive plastic waste of the modern era. You can learn more about the Fraser Yachts/ Plastic Oceans Foundation partnership at fraseryachts.com.

es t o N s s e n i s Bu Freedom Boat Club of Seattle to Open Kirkland Location By Evin Moore

Freedom Boat Club, an international boat-share company, announced yet another Paciﬁc Northwest franchise location opening at Yarrow Bay Marina in Kirkland. “Our ﬁrst year of operation has been outstanding in the Seattle market as boaters and newcomers to the boating lifestyle alike have equally embraced the club concept and our proven and

highly successful boat sharing model,” said the Seattle location owner Nick Hooge in a press release. “Feedback from our club members, coupled with our research of the Kirkland market, made this decision to expand an easy one. Our members will now enjoy the best of both worlds, with two separate bodies of water that provide totally unique boating experiences.” Hooge points to the success of the Freedom model as the key to the club’s growth in the area. Freedom Boat Club was founded in Sarasota, Florida in 1989, the ﬁrst club of its type. Designed to give boaters an alternative to boat ownership, Freedom Boat Club has grown steadily since then, and now has 15,000 mem-

Boats available to Freedom Boat Club members are often rigged for fishing and carry pots for tasty crab or spot prawns.

bers, 1,700 boats in its ﬂeet, and 150-plus franchise locations in 30 states and Canada. Members have unlimited access to the club’s ﬂeet of boats and don’t need to worry about storage or clean-up. Besides the Seattle and Kirkland locations, Freedom Boat Club franchises can be found in Bremerton and Tacoma, Washington, and Vancouver, Canada. Club members have access to free, unlimited boat training taught

by licensed U.S. Coast Guard captains and invitations to special member events. “Boating creates memories that last a lifetime,” said Hooge. “Nowhere else is lifelong fun with friends and family this exciting, and this aﬀordable.” If you would like to know more about membership or services, contact owner Nick Hooge at 206-900-1291, email at nickh@freedomboatclub.com, or visit freedomboatclub.com.

Letters We here at Northwest Yachting love hearing from our readers. Below are a few correspondences we’ve received. If you’ve got two cents to share, feel free to send us a snail mail letter to Northwest Yachting Magazine, 7342 15th Ave NW, Seattle, Washington, or an email to editorial@nwyachting.com.

Local Aluminum Hello, One of the local marina owners sent me a copy of your October 2017 issue that featured aluminum boats and some local builders. I'd like to throw our hat into the ring. Xtaero Boats was established in 2014 and has been serving the boating public with several items that your readers would find valuable. 2018 saw our third consecutive year participating in the Anchorage Boat Show and next week will be the third consecutive year being the front and center display booth at the entrance to The Great Alaskan Sportsman Show. We moved into our Tacoma, Washington, factory in 2015. Our website isxtaeroboats.com. Thank you for your continued acknowledgement of the aluminum boat industry as it is a fast-growing segment. I believe Xtaero offers a class of elegance in lines and functionality in addition to the ruggedness of other builders found in our segment. Have a wonderful day! —Travis Brandt, President of Xtaero Boats Ed: Thank you for reaching out, Travis! Congrats with the business and keep up the great work. That aluminum feature was one of our first, and overdue, features looking into the Pacific Northwest aluminum builder world and we were certainly impressed. To other companies out there: If we publish a guide or roundup of a topic pertinent to you and you aren’t in it, REACH OUT TO US! We thrive off scuttlebutt and want to give our readers as much information as possible. We are a megaphone for the local industry, use us.

Rad Reading with R2AK Dear NWY, Great job on the R2K stories, I’ve enjoyed reading along. I hope you keep it up and good luck with the race. —Mark Gumley

spanned oceans.

mjenkins@tridentfunding.com lbishop@tridentfunding.com

“Down, down, down!” I shout over the 20-knot wind as a deadhead, a proper log, appears on our course. “DOWN!” Jeff Oaklief, president of the Northwest Multihull Association (NMA) and owner of the Farrier F9R trimaran Ruf Duck, adjusts the course off the wind in the nick of time. “Nice call!” says Oaklief as Ruf Duck zips past the potential hull-damaging log at a sporting 16 knots. He resumes course toward the Seattle cityscape that towers proudly into the sunny February sky. Today’s Blakely Rock Race, the first of the Center Sound Series, is supposed to be overcast with five knots of wind. Leave it to the late winter/early spring Pacific

Northwest weather to surprise us with a gorgeous day and brisk wind. I look over to the other crewmates, Scott Wallingford and Li Sung, who are with me on the windward arm of the tri for our downwind run. We’ve rounded Blakely Rock and scheme our course back to Shilshole Bay. Why are we on Ruf Duck in the first place, you may ask? Wallingford, Sung, and I are training for the Northwest Maritime School’s (NMS) fourth iteration of the Race to Alaska (R2AK), the Pacific Northwest’s most iconic adventure race. We, Team Wright Yachts, are scheduled to do the 750-mile, engineless race in a Corsair 970 Sport performance trimaran dubbed Wright 1. The catch? Our boat is

currently under construction in Vietnam and we need to practice. While our team has plenty of combined nautical experience, including Sung’s PhD in Ocean Engineering and U.S. Navy tenure, and Wallingford’s decade-plus marine industry career, we are by no means multihull racing gurus yet. In fact, this race aboard Ruf Duck with Oaklief is our first official race together, and, for most of us the first time aboard a performance tri. Thankfully, the spring sailing season in Puget Sound gives us a near-weekly chance to race with Oaklief and the NMA, who’ve graciously taken us ducklings under Ruf Duck’s wings. Bust out the pump-up music and boxing gloves because it’s training montage time. We finish the Blakely Rock Race, not first by any means but not in disgrace either, and help Oaklief get Ruf Duck on the trailer. Someday soon, we’ll be doing this kind of setup and breakdown in our own craft. “Nice hustle,” Oaklief tells us in his breakdown of the day. “Even brought me a coffee... and I pretty much need my coffee. Crew work is showing promise, and you seem to have figured out the jib, screecher, and main. You have my trust on those now, so the spinnaker is next on the list... that and getting folks on the helm.” One race down. A lifetime of learning to go.

The remaining three of us have thus adjusted our strategy. The drawback of being a bare-bones crew will be the increased fatigue on each crewmember over the course of the multiple days of the race. “Mastering our crew rotation so we can get rest will be critical,” says Wallingford. “If all goes to plan, we’ll finish Leg 2 and get to Ketchikan in about four days. We’re all going to need to get some kind of shut-eye during that time.” On the plus side, a barebones crew has the advantage of less weight aboard. The racing mindset dictates that every pound of weight not aboard is its own victory, and the weight demands of each crew is the sum of his or her body weight, water and food consumed, gear, etc. Every person represents potentially hundreds of pounds. In short, like all things R2AK so far, hopefully the pros of our decision outweigh the cons. We’ll only know for sure once we hobble over that finish line.

But what of our vessel under construction abroad? Our ragtag group’s shot at R2AK has been made possible by Rob Wright of Wright Yacht Sales, the local dealer of Corsair trimarans. Wright is essentially letting us take his inventory on a joy ride before finding it a permanent home, perhaps with another R2AK dreamer for next year. With the Blakely Rocks Race under our belts and team confidence growing, I pack my bags for a trip to Vietnam to see Wright 1 for the first time. In my absence, Wallingford and Sung prepared for another training race aboard Ruf Duck, the Center Sound Series Scatchet Head Race. R2AK prep never stops.

VIVID VIETNAM The food carts and businesses on the other side C u Phú Thuân (Phu Thuan Bridge) in District 7 of Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Saigon) have no rhyme or reason where they spill onto the sidewalk. The concrete, single-room shops are laid

Wright 1 in all her glory! The team’s dreams and well-being rest on her capable hull. With an arrival of April, Scott, Li, and I are like three kids waiting for a big birthday present.

STATUS UPDATE: THE TEAM A lot has happened since Team Wright Yachts announced to the world that we were taking on R2AK in Northwest Yachting’s January 2018 issue. Readers of that story will probably be wondering what happened to National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Corps Officer Kathryn Richwine, our fourth team member. In short, life. Being the superwoman that she is, she decided to focus on racing competitively in her upcoming marathon, dominating her NOAA career, and other such goals. Sometimes, an adventure race just doesn’t fit into one’s plans. Maybe next year, and we’ll certainly miss her when it comes time to peddle.

Ed: We appreciate the well wishes, Mark. Team Wright Yachts, with our managing editor aboard, is eager to get going! Soon our trimaran from Vietnam will arrive and we can start practicing on our own boat (ﬁnally!). Stay tuned, more coverage to come.

Compiled by Norris Comer

Regency P65 Motor Yacht When one looks at luxury motoryachts in the 65’ or more range, it’s increasingly difficult to find a bad design. The distinction has evolved into good vs. excellent designs with emphasis on the all-important, no-man’s land of client preferences. The challenge to yachts designers, builders, and brokers of this class is not just to check off all the boxes, but to offer more. It is in the spirit of more that we look at the Regency P65 Motor Yacht, the latest from Taiwanese builder New Ocean Yachts. First, some context. The original lines of the P65 were penned by ubiquitous naval architect and marine engineer Howard Apollonio with the goal of creating a “minimegayacht” in 2005. The 2008 recession delayed the launch of the P65 until New Ocean and Premiere Yachts (the local brokerage) collaborated to update the design and tooling to make the vision the reality we see today. For a Regency design, the P65 is

Specs LOA: 66’5” • Beam: 18’3” • Draft: 5’2” Displacement: 88,105 lbs. Tankage (Fuel/Fresh/Black): 1,200 gals./285 gals./100 gals. Local Dealer: Premiere Yachts, (206) 708-7002 Web: premiereyachts.com Photos: Alex Kwanten

on the shorter side; the line currently oﬀers models from 60’ to 96’ length overall. Like all Regency boats, the P65 is semi-custom and gives the owner quite a bit of control over a build’s ﬁnal form. More on that later. Let’s start at the stern, where the vast majority of boardings will take place. Not only are there the usual luxury motoryacht attractions—large swim step, dual set of stairs leading forward around an island transom, covered cockpit—but a truly awesome feature is hidden in plain sight: a massive climate-controlled storage area/ workshop beneath the cockpit that leads to spacious engine room access. This arrangement will bring tears of joy to handy owners and mechanics alike. Also notable is the railing system both above and below deck. You can easily remove the stainless steel sections of rail from their mounting positions to either open up or close in the swim step, or adjust support

for boxes of cruising gear or a bicycle below. Also notable aft are twin control stations for extra ease in tight maneuvering. The clever utility aft is matched by the big-little-yacht luxury of the interior. Right away we noticed the horizontally oriented grain of dark walnut detailing that defines the P65. The interior design has local roots and is the handiwork of Seattle-based designer Sylvia Bolton and now Pacific Custom Interiors. The result is objectively beautiful, with dual glass doors aft leading forward into the spacious salon. A large flat screen TV deploys with the click of a remote from an integrated housing starboard and is positioned right next to the always necessary mini-bar and wine cooler. A modest set of stairs leads forward to the full-service galley (oriented port) and helm. The design purposefully creates a continuous interior space so, in practice, the skipper can see

New & Notable Boats

and hold conversations with guests in the salon, the cook in the galley can easily ask what visitors sitting at the transom seating in the cockpit want to drink, etc. The model we explored featured classy black and white granite countertops that were gorgeous with the walnut. The helm itself continues the theme of luxury and utility, with two rotating, padded captain’s chairs at the helm and nav station. As one would expect of a yacht like this, a state-of-the-art, three-screen Garmin system is standard. We played with it, and electronic charts, security cameras, and engine data were easily displayed simultaneously. The two chairs even rotate 180 degrees and act as seating at a foldable table that sits between the helm and the galley. We kept going forward and inevitably ended up at a spiral staircase that leads down to the accommodations. While the build we explored had three staterooms (master, VIP, and double berth) and two fully enclosed heads, a client could opt for more or less. The stateroom layout we experienced should leave nobody in want, and again we felt like we were on a much larger yacht. The walk-in showers were simply massive with innovative raised textured-tile ﬂoors and rain-style shower heads installed overhead. The details really stood out, down to the unique opening mechanisms for the drawers and closets (say goodbye to those annoying pop-style handles), to the faucets that come out of the wall vs. the logistically easier in-wall installation. These little touches add up and left us satisﬁed in a way that doesn’t come across entirely in a promotional brochure or online click-through tour. The two iconic features of the exterior include the foredeck lounge and, of course, the pilothouse (the “P” in P65). The foredeck lounge, an increasingly popular feature aboard yachts, is as advertised and highly adjustable for ease of stowing and deploying

on a sunny day. The covered pilothouse not only features another two-chair helm and nav station (two screens this time) set-up, but also a dinette and table seating. The build we checked out had custom canvas options that enclosed or opened the bridge, a wise move in the Paciﬁc Northwest. Aft of the covered pilothouse is completely open and typically would be the home of the dinghy (recommended 13’ length overall) and davit system. When the dinghy is deployed, the aforementioned railing segments can be popped into place and transform the bridge into a large socializing space with a view. This P65 came with twin Caterpillar 12.9L 1,000-horepower diesel engines. Economy speeds of around 8 to 10 knots at 1,000 RPM

seem to be the norm, while 2,000 RPM gets the yacht in the 16- to 20-knot cruising speed range. Reported top speed is 23.5 knots. If you’re into big yacht amenities but don’t want to wander into 70’+ territory, the Regency P65 Motor Yacht is certainly worth a look. If interested in learning more, contact Premiere Yachts, the local dealer. The outﬁt is run by Martin and Kristen Snyder, who were part of the P65 design collaboration and are immensely knowledgeable. The owner we talked to added his endorsement for the P65. “I’m so excited to enjoy this boat,” the owner told us. “It is just perfect for me and my wife, we love just about everything about it. We’re newly retired, fresh out of the rat race, and it’s time to have some fun!”

Lagoon Seventy 8 Motor Yacht The Lagoon Seventy 8 Motor Yacht, a luxury power catamaran and flagship of the Seventy 8 fleet, is the newest addition to the local market for the brand. This modern power cat is a no-expense spared cruising yacht made for large get-togethers or charters. Immediately apparent is the generous amount of teak, a beautiful aesthetic that brightens the cockpit deck, transom skirt, side decks, and forward cockpit. The covered flybridge, with convertible-style hardtop, is also eye-catching, and the various layout options speak volumes about what this yacht is about: maximizing dining and entertainment spaces. One layout option for the flybridge includes a small hot tub. The Seventy 8 is not shy about taking fulladvantage of the additional space aboard thanks to its 36’1” beam (quite generous for a yacht 78’1” long), made possible because of the twin hulls. Construction methods vary depending on what part of the yacht you’re looking at. The deck is polyester resin infused

on a balsa core, the hull and roof are vinyleseter resin infused on a balsa core, and the hull bottom and keels are solid-infused laminate. The deck is simply massive, made to accommodate proper lounge furniture. Below, the layout options include three-, four-, and ﬁve-cabin versions and various galley designs. The many options indicate that it’s unlikely that any two Seventy 8s will be exactly the same. One unique feature of one

of the designs is the deployable lounge built into the hull that allows direct access to the outside from one of the berths. All the space, versatile layout options, and modern ﬂair should make the Lagoon Seventy 8 Motor Yacht into a top-notch entertainment platform, sought-after charter, or both. If interested, the 2019 iteration of the yacht is now oﬀered by local dealer Marine Servicenter. Contact them for details and pricing options.

Tiara Sport 38 LS 2019 Arriving soon to Seattle is the brand-new Tiara 38 LS 2019, an ultra-modern luxury sport yacht fresh off the line. A blend of design traits from larger luxury yachts and performance sport day boats, the 38 LS is meant to go fast in style. Right off the bat, we notice a trio of Yamaha outboards affixed off the stern. The standard propulsion package offers them at 300 horsepower apiece while optional 350s are offered as well. With a whopping 900 to 1,050 horsepower at your fingertips, the 38 LS is reported by the manufacturer to reach a maximum speed of around 50 knots with a more typical cruising speed in the mid-30s. The skipper has the added benefit of an integrated Garmin navigation system and optional Yamaha Helm Master Joystick Steering (popular when docking). But the 38 LS isn’t all business with most of the features designed to maximize onthe-water recreation. Seating options are tucked into just about every available space aboard, from the bench-style seating along

the transom to the covered seating under the hardtop near the helm. The starboard walkway that connects the cockpit to the bow is deep-seated and wide in a successful move to make the foredeck as accessible as possible. The entire foredeck is essentially a lounge with wraparound seating. On a nice day, this will probably be the favorite hangout space for guests. Back in the cockpit, seating can be rearranged around an integrated barbecue grill

and refrigerator with hidden settees and lockers. There are even overnight accommodations below deck, though the emphasis of the 38 LS is clearly on being queen of the day trip as a swimming, ﬁshing, waterskiing, socializing, and whatever you can think up platform. If sleek styling, luxury accommodations, and performance are high on your new boat priority list, the Tiara 38 LS 2019 may be worth checking out. You can reach out to local dealer, Alexander Marine USA, for more details.

New & Notable Boats

Amel 50 New to the local Signature Yachts brokerage is the French Amel line of boats, with the new Amel 50 being the star of the show. Designed for that cruising couple or family who’d rather relax on the journey than endure hardship, the Amel 50 is a luxury sailing yacht that emphasizes comfort. A few features leap out at you during a ﬁrst glance. Like many Euro cruisers, the Amel 50 has an eﬃcient plumb bow and transom with fold-out swim step. Unlike most Euro cruisers, this one has a retractable hardtop dodger with a helm positioned more amidships than aft. There are no dual helms here, for this yacht is all about the cruise. The hang-out space in the cockpit is simply massive with sumptuous padded seating just about everywhere. Interestingly, the rig is masthead vs. the fractional rigs that

seem to dominate the industry. It features an in-mast furling mainsail, another example of the boat’s emphasis on making sailing as easy as possible for the skipper and crew. Of course, the interior is equally luxurious. A few steps down the companionway leads into the large salon with galley immediately starboard. The family dining arrangement and nav station is situated

to port. Diﬀerent layout options provide six to eight berths. Overall, the Amel 50 looks like its accomplished what it was born to do: go the distance in style. The modern touches and generous accommodations of the yacht are likely to be hits with their clientele. If interested, contact local broker Signature Yachts for more information and pricing.

Specs LOA (w/swim step): 50’10” Beam: 15’8” • Draft: 7” Displacement: 49,000 lbs. Tankage (Fuel/Fresh): 180 gals./160 gals. Local Dealer: Signature Yachts, (206) 284-9004 Web: signature-yachts.com

Capture Life All Around You Garmin VIRB® 360 Camera / $799.99 We’ve entered a 360-degree digital world, and Garmin is leading the way. Their VIRB 360 camera is the ﬁrst of its kind with highresolution 360-degree audio and video at your ﬁngertips. Film vertically or horizontally and allow your VIRB 360 camera to auto-stitch your 4K footage for a complete 360 experience. For higher-quality RAW 5.7K video, record unstitched video and stitch the content together with the included desktop software, VIRB Edit, or in its mobile app. At 30 frames-per-second with 4K spherical stabilization, your 360 video will rid itself of quick movements and vibrations without overriding camera orientation. All it takes is one click in the VIRB Edit desktop software or mobile app. The app connects to your Android or IOS operating system, and with another tap, your phone

becomes a remote control for your camera; see 360-degree video in real time, use a virtual reality (VR) device to view your 360 videos in VR instantly, or livestream to Facebook or YouTube (livestreaming is only available on compatible Apple devices). GPS and GLONASS barometer, accelerometer, and more built-in sensors provide customizable G-Metrix data overlay options in 360-degree augmented reality. The camera includes pre-made data points templates for ease of use. Consider pairing your Garmin camera with compatible Garmin sensors and devices for additional camera control and measurable data.

Press start or simply say, “Ok Garmin, start recording” to begin your video. Recording will also stop on your command. If you record a memorable moment, tag that second to easily ﬁnd it later by saying, “Remember that.” Whitewater rafting? Pool party? No problem. The rugged VIRB 360 is waterproof up to 10 meters; its small size and lightweight design ideal for any and all adventures. The glass lenses are easily replaceable. A single battery charge records up to one hour of video. Check the sunlight-readable screen for storage, battery power, mode, and connectivity status. The VIRB 360 is available online at buy.garmin.com for $799.99.

Wind in your (tiny) Sail DaSail Econo SUP Paddle / $199.99 People have used the wind to power ships for thousands of years, and now even the humble paddleboard can take advantage of a free ride. The DaSail Econo SUP Paddle has a 12’ sail that folds right into the handle. DaSail Paddle inventor Curt Siverts got the idea for the unique paddle after watching paddleboarders muscle their way past his boat. The original design featured a fan-shaped sail that was later dropped for the more practical triangle shape of the new design. To launch the sail, pull the handle oﬀ and slide 46 NORTHWEST YACHTING || MAY 2018

the rigging out from the hollow shaft. This process takes less than ﬁve seconds. The shaft is made from lightweight carbon ﬁber and the paddle is made of a durable ABS plastic. The paddle is adjustable from 74” to 93” when in paddle mode and 120” to 139” in sail mode. The paddle's sails come in three colors, Sunset Orange, Lime Green, and Tropical Yellow. If you want to add a little extra range to your next paddleboard trip, or are just feeling lazy, think about the DaSail Econo SUP Paddle. Starts from $199.99, more info at sailpaddle.com.

The Safety of the Raft WINSLOW Life Rafts / Prices Vary Well-known for the finest marine and aviation life rafts in the industry, WINSLOW Life Raft Company’s combination of superior quality with extremely lightweight and compact design has gone unmatched for over 70 years. Each raft is custom built using the latest technology for a high-quality, life-saving raft. The company originally built life rafts for the Allied Forces in World War II. After Fred Shoaff acquired the Florida company, he discovered weight and manageability were sticking points for many traditional life rafts. Strength, durability, and seaworthiness with a lightweight and compact design became WINSLOW’s new goal and eventually, their standard. Their signature design is so light – 40%-60% lighter than other rafts – that almost anyone is able to deploy it, exponentially increasing a survivor’s odds of returning home. Word got out, of course, and WINSLOW began supplying not only sailors, but also pilots with their superlight, compact rafts. Shortly after WINSLOW received top honors in an independent review of aviation life rafts by The Aviation Consumer, they secured FAA approval and expanded the aviation line. Their rafts are used by world-renowned

The deployed life raft has overhead shelter for protection and external straps for holding on or affixing supplies onto.

sailing competitors, power boaters, government agencies, and Fortune 500 companies. Each raft is designed to meet the needs of every customer. Most rafts are 10-sided to simulate a round life raft’s ability to always remain at a “neutral” point but with additional rigidity for better stability. They also feature a ballast system, a drogue (largest in the industry), a wide entry point for easy accessibility from a sinking vessel, a wide boarding platform, and large 11” buoyancy tubes to allow passengers to sit low in the raft to lessen the likelihood of being tossed out in severe conditions. The

raft’s extra support and comfort also reduces “life raft fatigue.” WINSLOW’s multi-position double-coated, self-erecting canopy system is also typically included in each raft and provides necessary protection from the elements, reducing the risk of hypothermia. A survival equipment package is tethered to each and every life raft. To top it all off, their extensive packaging options allow for effective storage in almost any location. To learn more and discover WINSLOW’s expansive life raft products, check out their website at winslowliferaft.com.

In the market for a coffee maker that requires almost zero effort and fits in compact places while maintaining a full-bodied taste? Believe it or not, it exists. Check out Inissia – Nespresso’s smallest coffee machine. Weighing in at only 5.3 lbs. at 4.7” by 12.6” by 9”, this tiny machine is perfect for any tight galley. Small, efficient, and designed to deliver perfect results every time, it may be time to replace your French press with this twobutton caffeine machine. If you’re new to the Nespresso lifestyle, secure your halyard because the array of capsule choices will have you flying ahead full sail. From limited edition to “Intenso” and “Pure Origin” to “Lungo,” the choices are plenty and the taste is always delightful. To make your search a little easier, refine it by choosing your intensity level, cup size, and aromatic profile to fit your desires.

Grab your cup, choose your capsule, and tap one of the two programmable buttons – complete with automatic flowstop - for a delicious cup of joe in under a minute. The Nespresso extraction system heats water to the ideal temperature in only 25 seconds. Just push the button and let the magic happen — it’s as easy as coffee gets. The water tank holds up to 0.7 L, the used capsule container holds 11, and the pressure is 19 bars. If you’re not a morning person, and can’t think past sipping down that delicious drink, much less turning the device off, don’t worry! Your Inissia will automatically switch off after nine minutes. The nine-minute shut off time also results in a small footprint, meeting the Energy Efficiency Class A standards. Check out nespresso.com for more details or to order online, priced at $199.00.

Cool to the Core Deck Hand Hoodie by Grundens / $60.00 From sun to rain to hail to snow, we’ve seen it all this season. Now that we’re in full spring mode but still trying to remember how it feels to be warm, it doesn’t hurt to be prepared for the beautiful (and hopefully hot!) summer headed our way. Grundens products are designed to withstand the forces of nature, encouraging anglers to get out and fish with nature and its elements. That being said, stay cool this coming season with the Deck Hand Hoodie by Grundens. Designed for serious anglers to perform at their best in extreme temperatures and sun exposure, this hoodie uses COOLCORE chemical-free cooling fabric to take the body’s own moisture and use it to cool the garment as you sweat. This

actively keeps your body cool – both look-wise and temperaturewise. Its fabric stretches in four ways, allowing an unlimited range of motion. Throw up the hood to save your neck and head from the outside elements. With quickdry technology and an ultraviolet protection factor of 30, fishermen can stay on the water longer, increasing their chances of bringing home the catch of the day. Choose between three colors: Deep Water Blue, Ocean Wave (green), and Monument Gray in sizes up to 3X for $60. Shop for yours on their website at shop.grundens.com; also available from other online and local dealers.

The Designer Origami Kayak Oru Kayak’s Robert Lange Edition Coast XT / $2,099.00 Oru Kayak’s innovative and unique approach to kayak manufacturing applies the concepts of the ancient art of origami to their products. Origami genius Robert J. Lang is the inspiration behind Oru Kayak designs. Their third and latest creation, the Coast XT – Robert Lang Edition was born out of the “Birdwing Butterﬂy” pattern – one of Lang’s 160 intricate and beautiful trademark folds. This kayak is roomier and lighter than previous models, without compromising strength, making it easier to enter and exit with plenty of leg room. Three simple zipper channels slide on the center seam, sealing the sides of the kayak together – it’s as easy as that. Traditional Arctic kayaks inspired the Coast XT’s size and form, giving it superb speed capable of serious expeditions and pro-level performance. The 16’ long, 25” wide, and 34lb kayak folds up to 33” by 12” by 29” or the

size of a large portfolio or suitcase, making it easily transferrable and storable. Throw it in a trunk, closet, garage, under your bed, in a van, and perhaps the most useful, your boat. You can even check it onto planes or carry it on a hike. The corrugated polypropylene kayak is built to withstand 20,000 fold cycles, 10 years of ultraviolet radiation, and outlast contact with rocks and underwater obstacles.

Along with its entire fold pattern, its deck lines and comfortable and easily-adjustable thigh braces set this new kayak apart from others. The material is key to the lightweight and extraordinarily strong ﬁnished product. But even if something detrimental were to happen, the kayak comes with a one-year warranty. Purchase yours for $2,099.00 online at indiegogo.com and check out their other innovative products while you’re at it!

This foldable kayak converts into a handbaglike travel form for ease of stowing.

Farm to Feet Socks / $15.00 If you’ve been wearing the same brand of socks since middle school, it might surprise you that they’ve come a long way since then. While socks aren’t thought of as a product that is updated with the latest and greatest sock technology, they are more comfortable than they used to be thanks to constant innovation. Their socks are made from merino wool, spandex, and nylon fibers; the merino wool allows for temperature control and moisture to be whisked away. The spandex provides elastic stretch, and the nylon adds support and color. The toe closure is seamless, meaning the seam is totally flat, reducing the bulk around the toes and the chances of blisters and abrasions. Farm to Feet socks are built with honeycomb inspired hexagon-shaped reinforcement zones, plus extra cushioning in the heels and toes. Ventilation channels promote air flow and faster drying, while elastic fibers lightly

Short Take

compress socks around the arch of the foot, providing extra support. Nester Hosiery, the makers of Farm to Feet socks, is committed to a 100% American-made and environmentally responsible product. Beyond just “made-in-America”, every single aspect of production uses components manufactured or grown in America; from the wool sheered within 300 miles of Nester’s Mt. Airy, N.C. factory to the ink and cardboard used in packaging. Being sourced in the U.S. dramatically reduces environmental impact and ensures quality materials. Farm to Feet offer socks for every need: try the Harpers Ferry model for hiking or wear the Cedar Falls while fishing. Socks come in a variety of colors, patterns, and heights, so there’s sure to be something that fits your taste. If a pair of socks that feels fresh all day is something you’re interested in, find out more at farmtofeet.com. Prices start at $15.00 a pair.

With rendezvous season approaching, nothing can liven up the party like a little music. Wireless speakers are very popular, but they tend to be averse to watery conditions. That’s where the speakers from ECOXGEAR come in. The EcoDrift speaker is a lightweight, waterproof speaker with a rating of IP67 that was made speciﬁcally for use on boats and around water. A 15W speaker and a 3’’ diameter passive subwoofer produce the sound, and a rechargeable lithium ion battery provide 15 hours of power. Use Bluetooth to connect the speaker to any device with music on it, be it a laptop, tablet, or phone. The 5.5’’ by 2.3’’ EcoDrift weighs in at 17 ounces, and can be paired with another EcoDrift to provide stereo-quality surround sound. Beyond simply waterproof, the speaker is shock resistant and capable of ﬂoating. Next time you’re out cruising, or stretching out by the pool, bring along a speaker that loves the water as much as you do. The EcoDrift is available at ecoxgear.com and starts at $89.99

The last problem you want to have in rough waters is not being able to see what you’re doing. A standard ﬂashlight takes up one of your hands, and while a headlamp may solve that problem, they tend not to be rugged enough to be relied upon. That’s why the people at Exposure Lights created the RAW Pro Head Torch, a lightweight yet heavy-duty headlamp designed especially for boaters and marine conditions. The RAW Pro uses LEDs which can give oﬀ powerful red or white light with the click of a button. The head lamp can switch between an hour long, extremely bright 200 lumen setting to an energy-saving 2 lumen setting that can be sustained for up to 25 hours, and every setting in between. Choose between a red or white beam with the click of a button,

and use the swivel clip to adjust the beam angle with one hand. The RAW Pro also has a highpower strobe function for emergency signaling that can run for five hours. Fully charge your head lamp in 1.5 hours with the USB charge port, and wash the removable headband. Unclip the light from your headband to use as an inspection light. Best of all, the head lamp from Exposure is 100% waterproof with a rating of IPX8 to 6’ of depth, and shock proof up to a 15’ drop. The RAW Pro was meant for the sea, but works just as well mountain biking, hiking, or night kayaking. If you need a next-level light source that you can count on in tough conditions, check out the Exposure RAW Head Torch from exposurelights.com starting at $164.00.

A back up anchor is never a bad idea, but the problem most of us run into is the lack of proper storage they require. Not only do we have limited space to spare onboard, but if an anchor bumps into its neighbor - be it a cabinet or possibly gelcoat - a lot of damage could be done. The Stowaway Bag could come in handy in such situations. Fortress Marine Anchors built the Stowaway Bag with rugged, heavy duty Cordura® fabric; assembly and packing instructions with easy-to-ready diagrams are sewn inside, guiding you through anchor assembly and bag-packing procedures. Each bag includes a spare ﬂuke clip, nut and bolt, two wrenches, and is capable of holding the full line (16) of Fortress and Guardian anchor models in addition to 6’ of chain – everything you need to deploy your anchor quickly and avoid disasters. Stow it below or in a lazarette for quick access and even quicker assembly – a vital component of any last-minute anchoring emergencies or crowded San Juan Island bays. In the same spirit, if you’re in the market for a new primary or sec-

ondary anchor, Fortress Anchors are a sturdy yet lightweight option at only 69 lbs. Constructed with high-tensile, corrosion-resistant aluminum magnesium alloy, their holding power paired with lightweight design makes them widely used. The FX-125 is the primary anchor on 154’ USCG Sentinel-class cutters, a telling endorsement for those weighing anchor options. Purchase a Stowaway Bag online at West Marine or Fisheries Supply Co. for $59.95 and receive a no risk, 90-day money back guarantee in addition to a three-year warranty. Browse their full list of dealers online at fortressanchors.com.

Stowing the anchor in a secure manner is a safety must.

Marine Electronics

Get Yourself Connected Winegard Marine ConnecT WF-200M Antenna Complete connectivity while at sea remains the holy grail of boating technology. For many of us, the point of going boating and leaving it all is to escape the internet, cell phones, emails, Yahoogles, InstaSquawks, and the like that have infested land. However, for others, staying connected is important. At the end of the day, if staying connected is the diﬀerence between going out or staying in, then we can certainly get behind the always connected mindset. Winegard Marine recently announced their new ConnecT WF-200M antenna designed to keep boaters connected to the internet just about everywhere they go. The concept is relatively simple; the unit combines a long-range Wi-Fi signal extender with an integrated nationwide 4G LTE cellular antenna in a protective, easy-to-mount housing. In a real-world application, the Wi-Fi antenna kicks in when the user is near the shore or at the marina when a hotspot is in range. This makes it easier to download software updates for electronics, get the latest weather report, and stream videos without worrying about eating up cellular data.

When out of range, the user clicks a button and the antenna switches to cellular mode. In this mode, the antenna taps into Winegard’s nationwide 4G LTE network to keep the user connected to the internet. The unit comes with Winegard’s pay-as-you-go ConnecT 4G LTE data program that does away with annual contracts, activation fees, and monthly bills. You can also preload a data plan that ranges from 1 ($20) to 20 GB ($150) of data from the company’s website (winegard.com) on the go if needed. Their growing network covers most of the USA and swaths of Canada, including much of the British Columbia coastline. Once a signal is ﬁxed, either by the Wi-Fi extender or cellular antenna, then the WF200M rebroadcasts the internet wirelessly to interact with onboard electronics. These can range from a whole integrated NMEA network aboard or just the skipper’s smartphone, tablet, or laptop. Also keep in mind that most modern smartphones feature Wi-Fi calling, meaning that you may get away with using your phone with Wi-Fi provided by the WF-200M instead of falling back onto your usual provider’s often expensive data plan. The unit itself seems well-suited to life aboard with a mounting pedestal meant to be compatible with most kinds of vessels.

The WF-200M antenna is housed in a compact, weatherproof housing that should be easy to mount on most mid- to large-size yachts. Winegard has many similar models geared toward mobile or off-the-grid lifestyles (RVs, cabins, etc.), but the WF-200M is the model designed specifically for the boating lifestyle.

56 NORTHWEST YACHTING || MAY 2018

The pedestal can be mounted on a flat surface with up to a 30-degree slope, or any 1” 14-thread extension pole. The WF-200M is 10.3” in diameter and weighs about three pounds. Units like the WF-200M antenna bring some boaters to an interesting crossroads. For those who can work remotely, always being connected opens a whole new lifestyle. Provided the boss is okay with it, maybe you could swing the cruising dream if connected? Tech like this is becoming better and more prevalent. Perhaps this will lead to a new kind of high-tech world cruiser living the dream his or her own way. For now, it’s worth noting limitations of the tech. The WF-200M’s cellular coverage is only in North America, for example. Also, cellular coverage is still bound to be limited or nonexistent oﬀshore. However, such limitations are not the antenna’s fault. Someday when we have complete global cellular coverage and Wi-Fi hubs are truly everywhere, this antenna should be ready to take advantage of it. If you’re intrigued by the Winegard ConnecT WF-200M Antenna, you can find more at winegard.com. A warranty that covers two years for the parts and one year for labor, unlimited complimentary telephone and email support, and a large dealer-support network only sweetens the deal. The Winegard ConnecT WF-200M is listed by the manufacturer at $479.00.

Opening Day, Pull! The tradition of Opening Day—held on the first Saturday of May—is honored by communities throughout the area, notably Friday Harbor. The biggest of all is on the Montlake Cut of Seattle. Hosted by the Seattle Yacht Club, a boat parade with log boom moorage for revelers are mainstays. Parading boats of sailboat racing crews, commercial outfits, fire-rescue teams, yacht clubs, and more come together to create a collage of all things maritime. The Windermere Cup Regatta, an international competitive rowing race, is also an iconic part of Seattle’s Opening Day. Annually, more than 800 athletes, men and women from ages 14 to 70, compete just to earn their place in the Cup's lineup of races. This year, organizers are thrilled to host the women’s crew from the Dutch National Rowing Team, the men’s crews from Oxford Brookes University (UK), and rowers from the University of British Columbia. Pictured here is an all-women’s team from Seattle University pulling hard during the 2017 Cup. You can enjoy the fun from land as part of the lawn party celebrations or from a boat on the log boom moorings. Check out windermerecup.withwre.com or seattleyachtclub.com for more details.

Kevin’s Catch By Kevin Klein

Here Comes the Fun in the Sun! May is full of opportunity to get out and get some seafood. Whether we’re talking about north or south of the Canadian border, it’s go time! Let’s start with spot prawns which open for harvest in many areas May 5. About as sweet and large as you will ﬁnd anywhere, they are worth gearing up for and going after this month. One of the hot spots is right in my backyard—the San Juan Islands; but many places in the Strait and Sound are also open and jumping with action. Legal methods, limits, places, times (even down to the hours that seasons are open) can be complex. You’ve heard me say it in this column before, but do your own research and always check the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife regulations before planning a trip. Then check them again the night before you go, including any emergency closures that may be posted. This goes for any state in the United States or province in Canada. Enforcement oﬃcers are usually very fair, but they have

Far Left: This recent catch is proof that tasty flatties are out there in the Sound. Left: A good haul of local spot prawns! Below: Hauling in halibut is reel hard work.

a job to do. Don’t make that job writing a ticket for you! With that said, don’t be intimidated. It’s not that hard if you are aware and pay attention to the rules in your area. Back to the fun topic of catching these tasty shrimp; look for days and times with flat tides to target them. They can be found in many areas from 200’ to 400’ deep with a flat bottom. With modern electronics, we can even see shrimp beds as clouds on our sounders. Make sure and use good traps with at least 350’ of weighted line. Then weigh down these pots (if not the pre-weighted kind) with a 10-lb. downrigger ball clipped to the pot. Many folks who think they’ve been the victim of a pot thief really got their gear swept away by rushing tidal currents. Don’t be that guy or gal! Weight heavy. Also, a good pot puller is a must for this fishery because of the depth reached and weight of traps. One tip is to use a round laundry basket or something like it to contain the line as it comes over the rail—keeps things organized. Use good bait too. I like shrimp pellets soaked in one of the shrimp-catching oils on the market. I may throw in some other fish parts as well. Good old staples like cat food still work. As far as cooking methods, I’ve been boiling prawns lately for just a couple minutes. Once you get the timing down correctly, I think that’s one of the best ways to do it. Halibut and lingcod fishing are also open in many areas in May. Ling has a longer season, while halibut has just a few selected days. There are size limits and depth restrictions for lings, and other rules for halibut. But for tasty eating and fun, lings are the thing and flatties are nuts! Once again, don’t be intimidated by the rules and regulations, just do your research and go for it. For lingcod close to shore, I like to bounce lead headed jigs with curly tail plastic worms down a drop-off from 80’ to 120’. Look for kelp. Little fish like to hide in kelp and big lings eat little things…and big things. Some folks use live bait for these toothy tasties, but I’ve had just as much luck with jigs. For those who venture out further into the Pacific, pipe jigs will produce good cod action. Anchoring for halibut has become the go-to method in many parts of the Northwest. Find the right structure and let the flatties come to your scent trail is the theory. Using good bait such as horse herring or squid is key. Continued on Page 94 A lifelong resident of Washington, Kevin Klein can be found promoting sport fishing and giving seminars on boating and fishing techniques. A passion became a career when Kevin joined Inside Passage Yacht Sales as their Northwest sports and fishing representative. On any given day, you may find Kevin and his wife Vicki, also an accomplished angler, plying the waters of the Northwest, spreading the word about the benefits of the boating and fishing lifestyle.

On Watch By Peter Schrappen

The No Discharge Zone Becomes Law Boaters pay a lot in taxes and fees. While not exactly earth-shattering news, it’s worth mentioning and highlighting what the 250,000 registered boats (not to mention the visiting vessels) do for the Washington state economy. As the late state Senator Andy Hill would say, “For a state (like ours) without an income tax, supporting a thriving boating economy is the next best thing.” So, when it comes to taxes, here’s just a few of the taxes Joe and Jane Boater face every time they register their boat. There are $3 directed into the derelict vessel fund. Plus, Washington’s Department of Fish & Wildlife receives $2 from every registration to combat zebra and quagga mussels. There’s the excise tax that every registered boat owes each year (amounts to .5 of one percent of the boat’s value) that is placed in the state’s General Fund (that’s about $35 million every two years). Unfunded gas tax dollars are collected by the state’s Recreation and Conservation Office (RCO), which amounts to $8 million ever year (give or take). On top of the higher profile taxes (and I haven’t even mentioned the sales tax that’s over 10 percent in King County), there are fees. If you visit a state park, then you are familiar with the Discover Pass fee for the various marine parks. There are crabbing and recreational fishing fees. All in all, there’s about $60 million collected in taxes and fees each year from boaters. That’s the bad news, but that’s also the good news. Boating and politics and government are intertwined because so much of what we hold dear is decided not only on the water (of course, that’s true), but it’s also decided in Olympia and at your local city levels of government (and then there’s D.C. decisions that affect ethanol and tax/tariff polices). There’s a strain of political science reasoning that those who pay a lot in taxes (that’s us!) have more skin in the game and should be (and most often do) pay closer attention to politics. That’s the reasoning as to why 60-year-olds are much more likely to vote then 19-year-olds. As boaters transfer $60 million to government (and destroy $60 million of their collective income), it behooves us to sit up and hold our elected officials accountable. A case in point is the recent (as in April 10, 2018 press release from the Department of Ecology) to make Puget Sound a No Discharge Zone (NDZ). If you read the newspapers, the headlines wrack up some cheap political points without scratching the surface as to what this issue is really about. First, here’s what it’s not about: No Discharge Zones have been shown to improve water quality. Second, this issue does not affect the current law that states dumping black water is illegal. Third, what is in the scope of this new regulation of marine sanitation devices (MSDs) that, according to their manufactures, discharge effluent that is cleaner than municipal sewer plants?

62 NORTHWEST YACHTING || MAY 2018

For the vast majority of boaters, this NDZ will have little effect on you. Holding tanks will need to be pumped out. The vessels most affected (tugboats, UnCruise, superyachts) will no longer be able to use their MSDs in Puget Sound. With all the misinformation out there, it makes sense as to why my phone has been constantly ringing since this regulation moved forward. Speaking of moving forward, as this ties into more of the large boating population, look for marine law enforcement (and the U.S. Coast Guard) to spend more of our tax dollars enforcing this new regulation. The state will have more authority to board vessels to ensure they are not illegally dumping black water (again, something that is already illegal). As I mentioned in last month’s column, it’s a missed opportunity on Ecology and the environmental community’s parts to not look at targeted No Discharge Zones instead of a Puget Sound-wide No Discharge Zone. Then again, logic, data, and science have not had much traction here. As an aside, what constituted Ecology’s initial outreach on this six-year approach to the NDZ were two “sticky-dot” exercises that had about 15 meeting attendees, including yours truly. Yes, Ecology has seen a deluge of supportive postcards (like 25,000) but when the messaging is “keep poop out of Puget Sound,” it’s not exactly like “we are playing on level” as President Obama would say.

2006 Cruisers Yachts 420 Express

Twin Volvo With all the misinformation outdiesels, there,AC-Heat, Genset, Nice! $199,000 it makes sense as to why my phone has been constantly ringing since this regulation moved forward.

Expect to see more articles and news on this subject. Please ask me questions. At the outset, Ecology is focusing on education and outreach (hopefully, no sticky dots) as this new regulation rolls out. Down the line, don’t be surprised to see more enforcement on the water. I’ll do my best to keep you abreast of any future developments as part of my On Watch duties.

Cinco de Mayo Aboard I recently chased the sun to Baja California Sur for a weeklong trip to a friends’ home on the East Cape. The sun, light, and warm temperatures were a soothing salve. My skin had turned a sallow grey and no amount of skiing and time in the mountains could resolve the need for full sun and heat. If you can’t skip town to recharge, a meal of warm tortillas, tacos, sopitos, salsa, and margaritas will help resolve some of the sadness. This is an easy menu and can be brought to the boat for a fun meal with friends. The margaritas can be batched and taken down in a tub with a bag of ice. A bit of fresh fish, tomatoes, and limes are enough to help you imagine the sun and warm temperatures to come! Corn masa is a versatile ingredient. It is the larger flint corn that has been sloughed off the hard skin with the addition of lye. The corn is then rinsed, and the softened kernels are ground to make fresh masa. Dry masa can be found in the grocery store in the baking section, or in the ethnic section, along with some great Mexican ingredients. Grocery stores now carry a fair selection of fresh salsas such as pico de gallo and salsa verde, and the cheese section will usually have a few types of Mexican cheeses such as queso fresco, ranchero, or cotija. The produce section has tomatillos. Choose firm, bright green tomatillos for salsa verde and Roma tomatoes for your pico de gallo, but if the Roma color

is not a deep red, then spend the extra money and choose a vineripened tomato. The masa harina (corn flour) can be blended in advance and held in a plastic bag to use for multiple meals. The tortillas and quesadillas can be made at the last minute to cook and eat fresh and warm, helping conjure images of the warm Mexican coastline. The tomatillo salsa will hold for days in an airtight tub. The pico de gallo can hold a day, as can the guacamole, though both are delicious when fresh on the day of the party. If your time is limited, purchase the pico de gallo and make the guacamole fresh. Cabbage can be shaved in advance and the ingredients for slaw can be easily added at the last minute to prevent the slaw from becoming soggy. Call your friends, build a large pitcher of margaritas, put on some festive Mexican music, change into shorts and flip flops, and start cooking. The delicious lime and tequila of the margarita is a great substitute for the lack of sun. If all else fails, temperatures are starting to warm up even more in Baja and flight prices are starting to drop, so make a run to Baja and seek out the sun and a warm beach!

Corn Tortillas 2 cups corn masa 1 ½ cups warm water, approximately 2 plastic bags (quart size) for pressing tortillas (grocery bags work)

Flat griddle, comal (a flat griddle typically used in Mexico), or cast iron pan Tortilla press, or flat sauce pot

Mix the masa with the water and work well so the water is evenly distributed through the corn flour and it forms a cohesive mass when pressed together. The dough should be of medium/soft consistency, neither too firm nor sticky. The dough is supposed to feel wet when you squeeze it but not stick to your hand. Divide the dough into 15 equal parts (each one should weigh just over 1 ounce) and roll into smooth balls about 1½” in diameter. Place all but one of the balls under plastic wrap so that they do not dry out.Heat an ungreased comal or griddle over a medium flame. Allow to warm completely. Open the tortilla press and place a small plastic bag on the bottom plate. Place a ball of the dough on the bottom bag, a little off center toward the hinge rather than the pressing lever (it presses too thin on that side), and press it out with your fingers to flatten a little. Cover with the second bag and press down firmly, but not too hard. Open the press, remove the top bag, lift the bottom bag up in one hand, place the dough onto the fingers of your other hand, and very carefully peel the bag off the flattened dough. Keeping your hand as horizontal as possible, lay the tortilla flat onto the comal. There should be a slight sizzle as the dough touches the surface of the comal. Leave for about 15 seconds; the underside will have opaque patches and be slightly speckled with brown. Do not leave too long or the dough will dry out. Flip the tortilla over onto the second side and cook for a further 30 seconds; the underside should now be opaque and speckled. Pat the dough to get the dough to puff. Flip back onto the first side again and cook for 15 seconds more. Hold in a foil envelope lined with parchment to steam. Tortilla Tips: Fresh tortillas just formed but not cooked can have a bit of cheese added to one side and folded in half for traditional quesadillas (recipe follows), or that same fresh masa can be formed to make thick patties called mulitos (two are formed and cooked, meat or beans are added in between, and then it’s shallow fried in a bit of oil). Otherwise, small 3” disks can be formed into cups that are then cooked and filled with salad-like ingredients which are called sopes, or sopitos if they are mini-appetizer bites (recipe follows). Leftover tortillas can be cut into wedges and fried in canola or corn oil to make fresh tortilla chips.

64 NORTHWEST YACHTING || MAY 2018

Quesadillas (Mexican Style) Grated Mexican cheeses – queso ranchero, Cotija, or Monterey Jack Suggested flavors: squash flowers, sautéed button mushrooms, grated zucchini, and chorizo

Corn masa, prepared for tortillas Lard or canola for frying Comal or sauté pan Paper towels (if frying)

Follow the procedures for building corn tortillas from previous recipe. Once the tortilla is formed, fill the center of the raw tortilla with a tablespoon of filling. Using the plastic, fold the quesadilla in half and seal by pressing the dough together. Place the finished quesadilla on an oiled comal or griddle cooking until the dough starts to bubble and brown, turn and finish the other side. Do not cook too long or the masa will dry out. Serve immediately. To fry a quesadilla, put the finished quesadilla in a heated sauté pan filled with a ½” of lard or canola oil, fry to golden, turn, and finish the other side. Remove to paper towels and season with salt. Serve immediately.

Sopes/Sopitas Corn masa dough prepared for tortillas Suggested flavors: cooked carnitas, cooked Mexican chorizo, chicken in salsa verde, cooked shrimp, sautéed vegetables, etc.

Salsa (pico de gallo or salsa verde) Cotija or ranchero cheese Picked stems of cilantro A drizzle of Mexican crema Canola oil for cooking

Form the thick, small tortillas that will become the sopes. Gently press out a flattened ball of dough between the sheets of a plastic bag to about 3½” in diameter for a salad or 1½” for an appetizer sopito (it should be a little less than ¼” thick). Place the dough rounds onto the comal and cook like you would a tortilla. While the first tortilla is cooking, continue pressing out others and adding them to the griddle or skillet; just be careful not to leave them on so long that they cook and dry out. The sopes should have brown spots just like a tortilla and be cooked on both sides. Place the sopes on a sheet pan covered with plastic to keep them from drying out. While the sopes are still warm, crimp the top edges of the thick tortilla to create a small edge, leave them covered until you are ready to fill. To serve the sopes, heat a griddle or sauté pan and oil lightly, also brushing the sopes with oil as you add them to the pan. Once the sopes are heated through, season with salt and top with your choice of heated meat, cheese or vegetables, then top each with the remaining garnish and serve immediately.

ROUNDUP Compiled by Northwest Yachting Staff

APRIL

The annual cannons of Seattle’s Opening Day, always scheduled for the first Saturday of May, signal more than just the water-themed festivities of the afternoon. The cannons are a declaration to shake off those winter landlubberly attitudes and board the nearest boat for on-the-water fun! Prominent on the summer calendars of Pacific Northwest boaters are the various festivals, parades, celebrations, fish derbies, regattas, potlucks, messabouts, and the like we enjoy. Among the array of boating events is the rendezvous. What exactly distinguishes a rendezvous from the rest? First and foremost, the focus of a rendezvous is always boat owners and their guests. A typical rendezvous involves gathering boat owners of a certain type, often at the invitation of an owner’s association or local yacht brokerage. Odds are that there is a rendezvous out there that you and your boat fit into, either planned by your broker or even a fellow owner with gumption. Rendezvous vary quite a bit in character. Some are packed full of educational seminars from factory representatives while others just want you to bring your guitar and a bowl of potato salad for the evening barbecue. Some rendezvous are mobile, resembling more an organized group cruise, while most are station-

ary at a gorgeous location, often in the San Juan Islands. There are exclusive rendezvous for members only vs. open-ended rendezvous for anybody who wants to go, and ones catered to fine wine or Rainier tallboy crowds. Rendezvous can embrace a dress-up theme, like superheroes or rock stars, or ask folks to just come as they are. Not all heroes wear capes. Ultimately, what defines a successful rendezvous is a spiritual feeling of community, a shared experience of Boat with a capital B. When you pull into your rendezvous, a feeling of finding your tribe should ensue. Your boat is among her sister ships and familiar faces are there to greet you, often with a cocktail in hand. Take a deep breath in and cleat off those mooring lines. You’ve made it. We offer our inaugural Rendezvous Roundup to help fill up your calendars this summer and find the rendezvous that best fits you. Note that we’ve kept the geographical scope of this guide in Washington state, purely for magazine space restriction reasons. We also acknowledge, especially because this is our first take with this roundup, that we’ve probably missed somebody. Fortunately, the season is young, and we eagerly await to publish your scuttlebutt. Send all information to editorial@nwyachting.com and we’ll do what we can to get the word out.

A L E X A N D E R

By Norris Comer

Where do yachts come from? We look at the birds and the bees of the boating industry.

“Shi shi [thank you],” I repeat to the helpful, but not bilingual, highspeed rail attendant at the airport stop in Taipei, Taiwan.

78 NORTHWEST YACHTING || MAY 2018

I’m fresh off an airplane from Seattle–a 12-hour, trans-Pacific schlep with 14 hours of time zone difference–and I’m on a mission. I’m to navigate to the Ocean Alexander (OA) boatyard in Kaohsiung, a manufacturing city on the other side of the island. Fortunately, Taiwan is connected with high-speed rail, so the trip is only one and half hours.

Not a Mandarin speaker, the challenge for me is getting on that train. “Welcome,” the attendant responds with a smile and head nod. We half-mime a conversation for a few minutes and he points me in the right direction. I’m off, thankful for the English subtitles on most of the signs, and hop aboard my steed to the south.

Left: Two Ocean Alexander yachts await the final rounds of assembly in Kaohsiung. Below: Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall in Taipei.

own right, put the brand on the map as the visionary of the entire Ocean Alexander line at the outset. Ed Monk Jr.'s Ocean Alexander Mark 1 is a prime example of a classic OA look. First launched in 1978, the build was a trendsetter for motoryachts of the day as the quintessential blend of old-world seaworthiness with modern luxury amenities. Despite being built in Taiwan by a Taiwanese company, the Mark 1 looks undeniably Northwest and was made for that Puget Sound to Alaska (and beyond) long-distance, rugged cruise. If you want one, you can still find one today in immaculate condition. Just be prepared for sticker shock, for many go at three times the original listed price. OA’s success was thanks to this uniquely Taiwan-Pacific Northwest bond, perhaps due to the motoryacht world’s positive response to similar contemporaneous trans-Pacific partnerships like the one pioneered by the famous Bob Perry and Cheoy Lee collaboration. It’s easy to imagine Perry, the spectacled Pacific Northwestern designer with pencil and paper in hand, meeting with entrepreneurial Taiwanese boatyard-owning personalities over a whiskey. I recently talked to Perry about his time in Taiwan. “Taiwan is a fantastic place,” recalls Perry. “And the food? Best in the world. When we started out, a lot of people think we couldn’t pull it off.” A sideways grin. “We sure showed them.” Today, although the OA brand has expanded from purely Ed Monk Jr. designs, many of those ties remain. Like many legacy brands, manufacturers seek to balance beloved designs with the need to innovate, and modern OA designs vary quite a bit from their traditional lines. The recent 70 Evolution (70E) and the newest 90R Enclosed and Open models are prime

Comfortable seats, clean, Wi-Fi… Seattle should take notice, I think to myself as Taiwan passes by the window. I review my notes for the upcoming tour withAlexander Marine Vice President Winnie Huang.

ALEXANDER MARINE & THE PNW Ocean Alexander yachts, now formally a line under the Alexander Marine

parent company, has a longtime connection with the Pacific Northwest that goes back decades. Founded by Taiwanese native Alexander Chueh in 1977, the company is now under the direction of his son, Johnny Chueh. The Pacific Northwest’s own Ed Monk Jr., son of the legendary early/mid-20th century boat designer and top-notch designer in his

examples of clear aesthetic departures from classic OA builds.

THE OPERATION

WINNIE HUANG

After a good night’s rest in Kaohsiung, I leave the hotel lobby to meet Huang, who is there to pick me up in her car. After brief introductions and rehashing of my trip, we are across town and on the Alexander Marine factory grounds. Huang, a professional naval architect with years of formal training, is in her element. “Taiwan has a very long history of boat building and shipping,” she explains to me.

Alexander Marine owns four factories spread across Kaohsiung, each designated with their unique jobs (ex. tooling). Huang and I are exploring the assembling facility where it all comes together. The towering stalls shelter massive yachts in various phases of assembly. A brand-new OA 112 (112’ length overall) on jack stands is the star of the show, free of the assembly stalls and ready for sea trial. “Before the boats are ready for sea trials, they spend time in our testing pool,” Huang gestures to the far end of the yard. A massive orange travel lift sits near a basketball court-sized pool of water. This kiddie pool

of sorts serves as every OA’s first exposure to water after assembly. A motoryacht floats alone as Huang and I walk past. We enter the factory and pass gigantic stall after gigantic stall, each with a yacht under construction surrounded by scaffolding where dozens of people are hard at work with their trades. Once inside, the factory doesn’t differ too much from boat factories the world over. We enter the wood shop where the fine trimmings take form. I’ve heard stories from back in the day where workers in Taiwan would spend nights aboard, carving ornate doors and the like over the course of days. I ask Huang about this, and she laughs.

Winnie Huang, vice president of Alexander Marine, has been working with the company for many years. A trained naval architect, Huang comes from a multigenerational maritime design family. “There’s not a lot of women in maritime, but people like me are changing that.” Huang is proud of her family’s Taiwanese boat building heritage, as well as her two kids. Winnie Huang, at left.

80 NORTHWEST YACHTING || MAY 2018

After construction comes the test pool.

OCEAN ALEXANDER 90R The Ocean Alexander 90R is the newest addition to the fleet with the first orders currently under construction in Taiwan. One can tell at a glance that the 90R takes the OA family in a new direction aesthetically, notably with the near-plumb bow and modern-style glass windows integrated along the hull. Designed by Evan Marshall, the 90R comes in both enclosed and open flybridge models, underscoring the bridge as a major design focus of the yacht. The bridge is simply massive, complete with entertainment space with full bar aft and expansive lounge and dining space forward.

“Where did you hear that? No, the workers here have normal eight-hour days with weekends like everywhere.” We hop aboard numerous builds, including one of the first 90Rs coming together. The beach bar built into the transom may someday host swanky cocktail parties right by the swim step, but right now a team of electricians are running wires. The boat is a dull gray, and unfinished. I snap a few shots and look forward to enjoying a 90R beach bar when it’s fully operational.

Also notable is the beach bar built into the transom. The transom features glass doors to its own full-service bar with seating instead of a normal tender garage. This, coupled with the nearby water access via the large swim step, may make this area a guest favorite. The first 90R is set to sail November 2018; check out oceanalexander.com for more information. Alexander Marine 90R Specs: LOA: 90’ | Beam: 76’5” | Draft: 5’10.5” (max) | Displacement: 206,800 lbs. Tankage (Fuel/Fresh/Black): 3,000 gals./450 gals./200 gals.

FROM DREAM TO DELIVERY

THOUGHTS OVER LUNCH After a full morning touring the factory and answering my questions, I feel honored that Huang hasn’t tired of me and instead invites me to lunch. We end up at a Japanese place built next to an elementary school, and kids in different colorful uniforms appear to be gathered for a track meet. Huang and

Left: Rendering; Right: Being assembled.

I talk about boats, our families, and current events. We laugh; we listen. For a second, I’m not in Taiwan and there is no bald eagle on my passport. We are simply two human beings united by a deep-seated attraction to the sea, and all else is rendered irrelevant. Not everything about these times of international trade and relations is stable, but I’m willing to bet that the boaters of the Pacific Northwest will have a soft spot for Ocean Alexanders for the years to come.

TAIWAN 101

I pick Huang’s mind about the yacht building process. Every yacht starts as a twinkle in a client’s eye, and an OA is no exception. Most Ocean Alexander builds are semi-custom, and after a client expresses a desire to buy a yacht to their local dealer, details are hashed out for the order. If the preferred yacht is in stock with the desired options, the owner can motor away from the dock and that’s that. However, most buyers want their perfect boat, and that usually warrants a new hull. Once the order is official, all four Kaohsiung facilities spring into action. A typical turnaround for a yacht is five or six months, and the OA team has decades of experience under their belts in making delivery. Clients are welcome to visit the factory during the construction process and tweaks to the order are allowed within reason. In Huang’s experience, most owners just like to be in the loop. The culmination of it all is at the assembly factory where the hull comes together, systems are installed, and the yacht is polished to a fine sheen. After a two-week dip in the test pool and countless systems and structural tests, the yacht is ready for its sea trial, conducted on the Taiwan coast. Once the sea trial goes well, the OA is loaded onto a container ship and delivered to its new home for a full life of recreational boating. Many OAs can be found cruising the emerald waters of the Pacific Northwest, like they have since the line’s inception.

When we work together, the remarkable becomes standard operating procedure. The waiter arrives, and the multi-course lunch of seafood fare that Huang ordered begins. We savor every bite.

Taiwan, officially the Republic of China (ROC), is an island state in East Asia with a fascinating history and culture. While the majority of the state is of Han Chinese decent, Taiwan was first under the control of its unique aboriginal population, then a series of Colonial powers, including the Chinese Qing Dynasty who ceded it to Japan in 1895, only for it to return to Chinese control after WWII. The subsequent Chinese Civil War led to the rise of the People’s Republic of China (PRC, which oversees mainland China today), with the previous non-communist ROC government fleeing to Taiwan in 1949. The result is a self-governing, democratic society in limbo with mainland China insisting Taiwan is under its sovereignty while many within Taiwan advocate for official independence. Taiwan is a modern society with many attractions for visitors, in part thanks to a blend of influences. Taipei, the capital, has a world-renown foodie scene and an entire spa culture built upon a natural hot spring. Notably, Taiwan’s Kavalan Solist Vinho Barrique officially won the Best Single Malt Whiskey (2015) category by the World Whiskies Awards. With a climate similar to Hawaii and direct flights from Seattle and San Francisco, Taiwan is a tempting trip on most travelers’ lists.

The Paciﬁc Northwest is a crabber’s dream, but there is plenty to know in order to access the crabfest below. BY B R I A N N A K I N G

82 NORTHWEST YACHTING || MAY 2018

Nothing says spring in the Northwest more than appreciating the local seafood we have available here. Dungeness crabs have always been an absolute favorite of mine amongst the varied local fare, and it’s the thing I look forward to most when I order from a coastal restaurant or café. Crab cocktails – served cold, with the

smallest dab of cocktail sauce, if any at all – is a standout, as well as crab meat straight from the legs and crab eggs benedict. Any recipe where the meat can shine on its own and be the star of the plate is the best! A day crabbing can be even more relaxed than a day spent fishing, given that you’ll usually have to let your pots soak

for a little while. You could spend that soak time either doing some other kind of fishing, or just relaxing, soaking up the Pacific Northwest sunshine, talking with your friends who have come out with you, and generally just enjoying the day. And even if the sun isn’t out, a day out on the water, or by the water, is never completely wasted. Unfortunately, my crabbing outings in the Pacific Northwest have been mostly unsuccessful. While living in Astoria on the Columbia River, a few friends and I attempted to catch some crab in the brackish water of one of the nearby creeks, though we came up empty-handed. On a charter fishing trip with some friends in Newport, we passed on getting a crab license for the day, and then watched jealously as people took delicious fresh Dungeness home with them (and kicked ourselves for being too miserly). Up here in Alaska where I now live, the king of crabs is just that – the Alaskan king crab. But, being an Oregonian at heart, I have a soft spot (though not soft shelled) for Dungeness crab. Dungies can still be caught up here, but Puget Sound is a particularly great spot for finding these orange and purple crustaceans.

THE PNW MENU There are many different species of crabs in the Pacific Northwest, though there are a handful that are more common and more likely to be seen during a walk on the beach or pulling up a pot. Most of these species aren’t large enough to fish, but two notables are.

DUNGENESS CRAB Dungeness crab (or “Dungies”) named after the coastal town of Dungeness, Washington, are probably the most widely known and recognizable species of crab in the Northwest. This is due to its popularity as a commercially and recreationally caught species. They grow up to about almost 8” and have meat often thought of as being very sweet and tender. Like all species of crab, Dungeness crabs go through a process called molt-

ing, or ecdysis, which is like a snake shedding its skin. During this period the crab is very delicate and vulnerable, which is the main reason there are crabbing closures during certain times of the year. Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) requires that all soft-shell crab be returned to the water. This is in your interest as well—soft-shell crab meat is known for being mushy and flavorless.

PUGET SOUND KING CRAB You’ve heard of Alaskan king crab, but did you know there is also the Puget Sound king crab? While similar to the Alaskan species in size and overall appearance, the main difference is the length of the legs – there’s a reason people eat Alaskan king crab and not Puget Sound king crab! This species, along with the box crab, can fold their legs against their body so that they, in fact, resemble a compact box.

GO GET ‘EM Recreational crabbing is common practice in the Pacific Northwest, partially due to the relatively low cost and complexity of the hobby. However, knowing a thing or two about gear and technique goes a long way toward hauling in full pots in the first go.

GEAR INSIGHT Having the right gear is essential for any good day out on the water. If you are headed out on your own, you will need to make sure you have all the right gear with you, and you are responsible for any legal requirements (license, catch records card, specs on gear, etc.). If you are going out on a charter vessel, the charter will make sure that all the correct boxes are checked off before you head out.

Your essential gear for crabbing, in addition to your licenses, endorsements, and cards, is what you use to actually catch the crab. Crab pots are the most common method for catching crab. Pots are constructed using an iron frame and wrapping netting or wire mesh around it, with two funnel-shaped openings where the crab would enter. To prevent the crab from doing a rapid exit, there are trigger devices in the tunnel. If the pot has the trigger device, it is required to have a 4¼” inside diameter escape ring. This allows for smaller crab (particularly undersized crab) to escape. Also, to prevent ghostfishing (left-behind crab pots that continue to catch crab), the pot is required to have a biodegradable escapement device, usually a part that will biodegrade and eventually allow animals to escape if the pot is not retrieved.

TIPS & TECHNIQUE Depending on where you plan to go fishing, lightweight pots might be suitable. If there are strong currents in your area, however, a lightweight pot may get carried away in a current. You can weigh down the pots with rocks, though as with most things in fishing, it’s a trade-off – because weights in the pot take away potential space for more crab. Make sure to allow for enough line, for you need to balance the amount of line out with how deep the water is, how strong the currents are, and how not to cause a hazard for other boaters. You also need to account for tidal changes – if the tide comes in and you didn’t give enough line, your buoy may be submerged. The other risk is that if you used a lightweight pot, or you over compensated on the number of floats, your pot could float

Dungeness crab, pictured here, are the iconic quarry of choice for the Pacific Northwest crabber. Notice the spear-shaped feature on their underbellies? That’s an indication that these are males, which have fewer harvesting regulations than their female counterparts for ecological reasons.

or bounce on the bottom and be carried away with current. However, don’t give out so much line that you are putting other recreational boaters at risk of getting a line tangled in their prop! To prevent this, you need to weigh down the lines with a small weight, just enough to keep the line submerged. The general advice I have received from fisherman is to look at the depth marked on your chart for the area that you are fishing, and double that for the length of line. There are other less common methods of crabbing, including ring nets, long-handled dip nets from boats, shorthandled dip nets while wading, and hook and line. Ring nets are like a collapsible basket, which a crabber lowers to the seafloor

with some bait inside. The crabber allows time for crabs to come to the bait, and then quickly hauls up the net to trap the crab inside the basket. Dip nets from boats or beaches are used by running a dip net (a large net with a metal rod as a handle) along the bottom of shallow areas and scooping up the crab. Hook and line isn’t very common but is executed by making a bird’s nest out of monofilament line with the intention that a crab will get tangled and be caught. I have also come across the method of using snares, which are loops that tighten around a crab’s leg as it tries to get away. I’ll confess, I’m not entirely familiar with the Washington state regulations on these alternative crabbing methods. You’d best check in with WDFW.

THE RULES To fish for crab in the Puget Sound you need to have a Washington state fishing license if you are 15 years or older. This can either be in the form of an annual shellfish and seaweed license, which would only allow you to harvest these organisms, or you can get a combination fishing license to also fish for other species during the year. In addition to a license, you need to have a crab endorsement and carry a catch records card. This card accounts for all Dungeness crab that are caught. At the end of the summer or winter (depending on when you get your card), there is a deadline for turning it in, and you Continued on Page 86

Crabmeat: The most important thing is to use crabmeat that’s best and freshest in your area. Here in Seattle, we make our crab cakes from Dungeness, using the body, leg, and claw meat.

Draining and Squeezing Crabmeat: Dungeness tends to be wet. Before you make crab cakes, drain the crabmeat in a sieve. Gently squeeze the crabmeat with your hands to remove excess liquid and at the same time feel for any bits of cartilage or shell and remove them. Don’t go overboard squeezing your crabmeat because you don’t want to squeeze out all the flavor or make it too dry.

Mixing and Handling: Mix gently. Crabmeat is graded and priced on the size of the lumps. It’s a treat to find some nice, intact lumps of crab meat inside your crab cake, and you don’t want to smash them up by overmixing. Fold the crabmeat and the dressing together with a rubber spatula as if you’re folding whipped cream into a mousse.

Salting: Some Dungeness is very salty. Taste your crabmeat first and adjust the salt in the recipe accordingly.

Chilling Crab Cakes: Once shaped, most crab cakes will be easier to handle if you chill them before cooking. You can put them in the refrigerator, leaving them right in the pan of crumbs and covered with plastic wrap for at least 30 minutes, or for several hours, or even overnight. Another idea is to refrigerate the crab mixture first, then scoop and crumb the cakes right before you cook them.

Forming Crab Cakes: A two-ounce ice cream scoop with a release lever is the perfect tool for shaping a classic 2½- to 3-ounce cake. Lightly pack the scoop with the heel of your hand and release the cake directly into the pan of bread crumbs. Press the crumbs around the cake while you’re shaping it into a disc.

Cooking Crab Cakes: The easiest way to tell if a crab cake is cooked and hot all the way through is with an instant-read thermometer. Insert the thermometer into the center of the cake and if the temperature reads 145°F, you know your crab cake is fully cooked. Turn the crab cakes only once while cooking. Flip flopping them is likely to break them apart and you won’t get a nice crust. When you cook the crab cakes, use a good, seasoned cast-iron pan, or a shiny stainless steel sauté pan such as an All-Clad or a KitchenAid, or a pan with a nonstick surface.

will receive an annoying $10 fine if you miss the deadline. They can be returned online or can be dropped or mailed to the WDFW. To a fisherman or recreational crabber, these cards can seem like a bit of a pain, but they provide valuable data about the state of Dungeness crab populations in Puget Sound. These cards are used to estimate the recreational harvest for the upcoming year. By submitting your data, you are helping ensure decisions made by fisheries managers are as accurate as possible. Being as accurate as possible also includes submitting cards when you caught zero crab! It may be painful to admit you got skunked, but fisheries managers are equally concerned, if not more so, by instances when someone has tried to go out crabbing or fishing and didn’t catch anything. As I’ve had it hammered in to me many times as a fisheries science graduate student— zero is not the same as no data; zero is a number! By having accurate data, this prevents two situations from potentially happening: overharvesting of Dungeness crabs, resulting in a damaged stock for future recreational or commercial fishing; or, unnecessary conservative restrictions and limits of fishing, which wouldn’t allow for people to take full advantage of a public resource. Fisheries managers are constantly attempting to strike that Continued on Page 110

MAKE TOM DOUGLAS’ DUNGENESS CRAB CAKES:

GREEN COCKTAIL SAUCE:

Adapted from I Love Crab Cakes by Tom Douglas (Morrow, 2006). Makes 8 crab cakes (serves 4 to 8 depending on whether you serve 1 crab cake or 2)

Adapted from I Love Crab Cakes by Tom Douglas (Morrow, 2006). Yields 2/3 cup

1 pound Dungeness crabmeat, drained, picked clean of shell, and excess moisture lightly squeezed out if your crabmeat is very wet ½ cup plus 2 tablespoons mayonnaise; preferably Hellman’s or Best Foods 2 tablespoons and 2 teaspoons grated lemon zest ¼ cup minced scallions, white and green parts

½ teaspoon kosher salt ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper ½ cup panko bread crumbs, plus 2 cups more for dredging (see note) 5 tablespoons unsalted butter Green cocktail sauce (see recipe) Lemon wedges

To make the crab cakes, put the crabmeat, mayonnaise, lemon zest, scallions, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Mix everything together gently with a rubber spatula. Add the ½ cup of panko and mix again. Pour the remaining two cups of panko into a shallow container. Form the crab mixture into eight patties. Pat them gently into shape without pressing them too much. Drop the patties into the panko and turn them to coat both sides, patting to shake off the excess. If you have time, you can let the crab cakes chill in the refrigerator an hour or more before frying. When you are ready to fry the crab cakes, preheat the oven to 450°F. Put two large non-stick skillets over medium-high heat and add about two and a half tablespoons of butter to each pan. As soon as the butter is melted, add four crab cakes to each pan. Leave the pans on the burners for a minute or slightly less (the butter should not be starting to brown), then place the pans in the oven. Cook the crab cakes until they are heated through and golden brown on both sides, about 12 minutes, carefully turning them with a spatula about halfway through the cooking time. Remove the pans from the oven and transfer the crab cakes to plates. Serve with the green cocktail sauce and lemon wedges. Note: Panko or Japanese bread crumbs are coarser than ordinary bread crumbs and stay nice and crisp when fried. Panko can be found in Japanese fish markets and in many large supermarkets.

86 NORTHWEST YACHTING || MAY 2018

8 ounces tomatillos, husked, rinsed, dried, and quartered 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar 1 tablespoon sugar 2 teaspoons green Tabasco 1 teaspoon chopped garlic 1 teaspoon mustard seeds, toasted (see note) 1 teaspoon peeled and grated fresh horseradish Put the tomatillos in the bowl of a food processor and process until coarsely pureed. Remove the tomatillo puree to a sieve, drain off the liquid, and discard. Put the drained puree in a bowl and stir in the vinegar, sugar, green Tabasco, garlic, mustard seeds, and horseradish. Note: To toast spices, place them in a small, heavy skillet over medium heat for a few minutes, shaking or stirring constantly, just until they are lightly browned and aromatic.

RACING SHEET

Weeknight Sailing Kicks Off Words: Doug Hansen // Photos: Jan Anderson The ﬁnal competition of the Corinthian Yacht Club Center Sound Series (CSS), Three Tree Point Race, traditionally marks the end of the late winter races and ushers in summer sailing. The race course usually takes the ﬂeet south of Alki Point and around a permanent mark set just to the south of Three Tree Point. With shifty wind conditions dominating the forecast and an expectation for wind to go away completely, the race committee took the positive

feedback from the Scatchet Head Race’s shortened course and opted to send the ﬂeet south, but not quite as far as planned. The “medium distance” course acted somewhat like a large buoy race, with plenty of corners and opportunities for passing while still giving boats time to play with the winds and currents. Oﬀ the start line was an aggressive game of playing the shifts while working close in towards the beach along West Point to stay out of the current. Once the

fleet passed beyond the point, the race got interesting. Wind shifts of over 90 degrees brought boats just a few yards away from one another, sailing in completely opposite tacks yet headed the same direction. Big dividends went to those who kept their wits about them and reacted to what was happening in the moment. Ken Chin with his Olson 911 Kowloon was the first to navigate the rocks, finishing a perfect series for the team by rounding the weather mark first in all CSS races.

Left to Right: Crews earned their foulies on the windward run to Blakely Rock during BRBR; Airloom, a Baba 40, rounds Blakely Rock and tries their kite during the gusty BRBR; Rounding the rock was the primary challenge for BRBR, especially as high tide obscured the small island’s actual size. 88 NORTHWEST YACHTING || MAY 2018

After rounding the rocks, the wind began to build into the high teens as boats reached from Blakely Rock to Duwamish Head. A few crews decided to push things and flew spinnakers in hopes of outpacing the competition before the downwind run. The puffs settled into a nice southerly just above ten knots. With the sun shining, it was almost enough to make racers forget about the frustration of the first leg. The course made for some long days onboard the smaller boats in the fleet, with the scratch boat Crossfire finishing in three hours and thirty-five minutes while Chris McMuldroch’s Tartan 3800 Wind Dancer crossed the line after nearly eight hours. All in all, it was a challenging race course to round out the CSS and a welcome change from the same courses year after year, although some navigators were disappointed that they weren’t given the chance to test themselves against the traditional course. Keeping the fleet close to the marina in the event of the

Results: Center Sound Series Finals eventual wind shut-off was a wellexecuted alternative to sending the fleet on a wild goose chase at the north end of Vashon Island. Following the Three Tree Point race, the Sloop Tavern Yacht Club played host to the nearly legendary Blakely Rock Benefit Race (BRBR). Part race and all party, the event has grown into itself since the first run in 1981, and now stands as one of the most well-attended races on the spring calendar. This year’s forecast called for strong winds from the south and while the intensity was high, it did not discourage over 60 boats to brave the conditions. Gusty conditions gave many crews the chance to test high wind sails and build confidence in themselves and their equipment in the first big wind regatta of the year. The event continued off the water back at The Sloop Tavern with what has become one of the most impressively stocked sailing raffles in the country. Haulouts from several boatyards, chandlery gift cards, and memorabilia were up for grabs with all proceeds going towards The Sailing Foundation. Established in the late ‘70s, the foundation has been at the forefront of safety and fleet development in the Northwest sailing community, and currently sets the bar for supporting local youth sailing and keel boat racing safety training. With the CSS and BRBR wrapped up, it’s now time to look towards the weekly series beginning to take shape both on Lake Washington as well as Shilshole Bay. Dominated by several growing, one-design keel boat fleets including the J/80, J/105s, and J/24s, as well as the Thistle, Laser, and RS Aero fleets, there are plenty of options for competitive racing nearly every night of the week. As for the big boats, eyes now turn to the Seattle Yacht Club Tri-Island Series, kicking off with Smith Island on April 28, and, of course, the venerable Swiftsure starting May 26 out of Victoria, British Columbia. Be sure to check back here for updates on those races as well as other events from around the Pacific Northwest sailing scene.

P RTS OF CALL

Ladysmith, British Columbia By Marianne Scott It’s easy to picture Ladysmith historical figure and coal baron James Dunsmuir standing on the bluff above Oyster Bay of the eastern side of Vancouver Island in 1898 plotting how to get his coal shipped out. After his father discovered coal near Nanaimo, British Columbia, he formed a company, built a railway, and began shipping “black gold” from Departure Bay. James was equally ambitious and when he opened the Extension Mine just north of the future Ladysmith, he moved his miners, their families, and their bundled-up houses by train and ox cart to the new site. Ladysmith became a company town of about 2,500. Some of the moved houses still exist, although in updated form. Ladysmith prides itself for being exactly on the 49th parallel. Today, the town has about 8,500 inhabitants and a convivial atmosphere. As one example, I ran into Isabelle Oulette, who’s lived 81 of her 83 years in Ladysmith. She’d used her walker to creep up the bluff and talked to me while resting a spell. “I volunteer in the city’s Archives,” she told me. “I love looking up so many events in our community, remembering the people who contributed, finding some of the name changes. The work makes me feel rooted in my hometown.” First Street presents one of the main shopping areas in many quaint 100-year buildings—some painted in pastel colors. Along First Street, Knight’s, a former hardware and stationery store, is remembered by the clock suspended above the sidewalk. The clock was required to keep accurate time before everyone had a reliable timepiece at home and it also served as a meeting and appointment place. We opted to stay at the Ladysmith Community Marina rather than Ladysmith Fisherman’s Wharf or the Ladysmith Marina located further north in the harbor. The Community Marina is a destination in and of itself, and offers other features beyond a place to tie up. We liked its amenities, price, and proximity to downtown Ladysmith. Its 330’

90 NORTHWEST YACHTING || MAY 2018

visitor dock leads to the ﬂoating clubhouse with a comfortable seating area, a small restaurant, washrooms, showers, and laundry. Outside, a social area with barbeque and picnic tables invites communal food sharing. “Dine On The Dock” takes place every other Friday from May 20-August 26. For $20 Canadian, visiting boaters and residents can taste a dinner prepared by a local chef. In addition, a marina kiosk provides facts on regional sea life. Two heritage vessels are moored next to the welcome center. The 1938 wooden towboat, Saravan, as well as the beautifully restored ferry C.A. Kirkegaard, participate in community events, festivals and classic boat shows. Along the dock, bright banners painted by local artists or children depict marine-related themes. The Harbour Heritage Centre serves as a small museum displaying an old-fashioned dinghy and some earlier-times marine equipment—Spillsbury radios, life rings, and a selection of outboard motors.

On our last Ladysmith morning, we ate a scrumptious croissant ﬁlled with scrambled eggs and eggs bennie at the Marina’s Oyster Bay Cafe. While there, we spied a woman dressed in a lacy white dress sauntering down the gangway, stiletto heels in hand. It was Ladysmith native Pamela Anderson, star of Baywatch, who was breakfasting there with her parents. Although it was before 0800 hours, she looked perfect, in full makeup, when we’d only brushed our teeth and thrown on shorts and T-shirts. I suppose when you’re a star, performing that role is a full-time occupation. I snapped her photo. But I can’t guarantee such celebrity sightings when you visit Ladysmith. The town is conveniently a five-minute drive from the Nanaimo Airport, 20 minutes from the B.C. ferries, and a perfect launchpad to the Gulf Islands. For boaters looking for small town charm in B.C. this summer, Ladysmith is a real treat.

1. Public Art All around town, former industrial equipment—a tractor, a donkey, a locomotive—has been transformed into public art. Perched on platforms, freshly painted, the accompanying plaques explain the exhibits’ previous function. These artifacts reveal the economic history of Ladysmith—one that resembles many other coastal communities in both British Columbia and Washington. Ladysmith history is almost a genre of its own in the town.

2. The Museum The Ladysmith Museum on First Street makes its home in an accessible older house and concentrates on historic exhibits. Inside, we learn some fun facts about the town’s past. Before our high-tech baby carriages and strollers became popular, an exhibit shows how a vintage wooden highchair could ingeniously transform itself into a stroller; in 1904, Ladysmith got its first telephone exchange and by the end of the year had 37 subscribers; a pair of boots with sharp nails on their soles shows how loggers managed to walk on the rolly booms they tied up; and miners’ headlamps became much safer after using batteries instead of burning oil in the dusty coal mines.

The Ladysmith Waterfront Arts Centre Gallery is housed in a former Comox Logging and Railway Co. repair shed and is on the way from the marina into town. It features local artists in a variety of media. Kathy Holmes administers the non-profit. “We operate with volunteers,” she told me. “It’s another part of our community spirit. Ladysmith is quaint and pretty. We all invest in the town.” The gallery also hosts the biannual Multimedia Fine Arts Exhibit in the fall.

DOWNTOWN

Walking from the marina, you’ll find a cozy shop, Antique Addict, on Roberts Street. You’ll also spot the Post Office Antique Mall on Highway 19. It’s located in a large 1910 brick building, which has given up its previous postal mission to showcase one of the largest collections of collectibles I’ve ever seen. Three floors are choc-a-block with every kind of antique imaginable. Furniture, glassware, dishes, clothing, vintage housewares—you name it—and you can spend hours learning what things our grandparents and great-grandparents used and found important.

ASK THE EXPERTS

INSUR ANCE FE ATURING C H RI S G IBBON OF FOURNIER INSUR ANCE SOLUTIONS

“There are worse things in life than death. Have you ever spent an evening with an insurance salesman?” — Woody Allen Mention the “Gig Harbor Fire” and most local boaters will know exactly what you’re talking about. The sun was about to rise at 0700 hours on a seemingly unremarkable August 31 morning in 2005 when the first witnesses reported black smoke and flames coming from the marina. The raging fire grew rapidly, exploding propane tanks, tearing down whole buildings, and destroying 50 boats as liveaboards and marina management fled for their lives. Miraculously, nobody was hurt. As the damage bill ran into the millions, boat owners dusted off their insurance policies and prepared to piece together their lives. It was only then when some learned that the “salvage and wreck removal” clause of their policy only provided 5% of the hull’s estimated value in coverage. This kind of story can feel like the norm to boaters who go cross-eyed when confronted with the fine print of their insurance policies. However, the difference between the policy that has you covered in that worst-case scenario and one that leaves you high and dry is in the details. In our effort to detangle the world of boat insurance, we turn to Chris Gibbon, a local boat insurance broker with over 24 years of experience. A Bayliner 4788

Chris Gibbon Chris Gibbon has been a marine insurer for 24 years, although the journey to be an insurance broker was hardly a straight one. Gibbon studied graphic and industrial design at Kent State in his native Ohio. An avid sailor and boater, Gibbon was a regular on the local and international racing circuits for years.

92 NORTHWEST YACHTING || MAY 2018

owner with a competitive sailing resume, Gibbon has a few nuggets of wisdom for those of us hunting for the right policy. Ed: You’re in a kind of niche market with boat insurance. Are there nuances or differences with boat insurances vs. other kinds of insurance? Most of the policies are similar, but there are differences between them. Some things jump out. For example, you have to worry about muskrat damage. Stuff like that is outlined in the list of exclusions. Ed: Can you go into exclusions and the consequential damages clause a bit? What is it and how does it work? The consequential damages clause is basically a sentence at the end of the list of exclusions that reads, “However we will cover the consequential property damage resulting from any fire, sinking, submersion, de-masting, collision, stranding…” Ed: That sounds like a pretty important sentence to hone in on as a potential client, especially for boaters looking for a good insurance policy. Absolutely. You don’t want a policy that’s patchy and doesn’t cover the kind of damages you’d realistically encounter on your boat. It’s also good to note that there is a difference between boat policies and yacht policies. Ed: Can you go into that a little bit? Well, the industry standard is to set the length for a yacht at 26’ length overall. So, generally, vessels less than 26’ are boats and over 26’ are yachts in the marine insurance sphere. As you get into the yacht category, big complicated boats with electrical systems, mechanical systems, etc., you need a policy that properly

addresses the increased needs. There’s also broader coverage in this category vs. more basic trailerable runabouts. Ed: Are there any red flags that readers and boaters should be aware of when comparing insurance policies? How do you know if you’re getting stiffed? Read the list of exclusions and understand it. Read the navigational limits and be sure of what you’re buying. Ed: Can you go into those navigational limits clause a bit? How do they work? Most carriers will cover the entire West Coast, and some will even throw in Mexico if you need something that broad. Frankly, in my experience, most boaters based in Puget Sound only need Puget Sound and maybe up to the tip of Vancouver Island covered. Ed: Is it cheaper to do it that way? Not generally, no. Plenty of policies will include Southeast Alaska at no charge. It’s just important to know what you’re buying for your own protection. If you do need more area of coverage, be sure to get insurance that will protect you. Ed: Navigation doesn’t sound like a big factor with cost of a policy then. What does tend to bump up the cost? There’s only a few things that really drive the cost of a policy: the value of the boat and the age of the boat. Those are the two biggest factors. Ed: With the age of boats, do policies factor in regular maintenance at all or no? Nope. Insurance companies usually will require a survey, but the cost goes up with age. Adhering to the market average of five

years between surveys qualifies many owners of older boats. Sometimes that will help offset the cost of an older boat. There’s other discounts available as well. Being a part of a yacht club, cruising club, accident-free; having Coast Guard training, or taking captain’s courses. A captain’s license for the ambitious is a big one. Ed: Is there anything about the Pacific Northwest that affects boating insurance? We don’t have the big storms that boaters around the country generally have to worry about. Insurers have started to get pretty aggressive around here with Pacific Northwest boaters thanks to the lack of storms, sometimes translating into lower insurance costs. What we have to worry about here is logs and rocks. Those are the most common causes of boat damage in the Pacific Northwest in my experience. I’ve never seen a policy that doesn’t cover that kind of thing. It [hitting a submerged object coverage] is pretty standard. Study the list of exclusions closely and read the policy. Also, really trusting your insurance broker can really pay off. Ed: In your experience, are people usually pretty close to their insurance broker? Not always, no. You get all types. Some of my clients have been with me for years and some are one-and-done types. Ed: What’s the road to insurance usually look like for a new boat owner? Imagine a guy with his new boat and he needs insurance. Now what? Go to me! (laughs) Do some research and start reaching out to established people. Some carriers will demand he has captain’s training and all sorts of things. The boat owner will fill out an insurance application where these hurdles will be addressed. One step that often becomes necessary is a survey. Usually boats 10 to 15 years and newer can get that survey requirement waived. Ed: Once you’re working with a client, what are you generally doing behind the scenes to get him or her a good deal? Negotiating with the underwriters is a big part of it. Having long-term relationships with the underwriters goes a long way with what I do. I’m on a first-name basis

with the underwriters I work with and have been doing business with them for years. Whoever boaters choose for their insurer, having good insurer and underwriter relationships deﬁnitely helps when getting a good deal. Ed: Shifting gears a bit, one source of boat damage I’ve heard you address before is muskrat damage. How much damage can these critters really do? They can do catastrophic damage to a boat. Muskrats will go up the exhaust and chew a hole in the hose, and typically sink the boat. I just had a client the other day come in after a muskrat did exactly that. I don’t know how that boat didn’t sink and the muskrat did about $3,500 worth of damage. He was extremely lucky, those things usually do much more damage. I have a couple examples of exhausts that have been destroyed by muskrats. It’s pretty amazing. Ed: Anything else the Northwest boater should be aware of? What about damages from fouled crab pots? With crab pots, the issue is usually solved with a diver cutting the fouled line. Usually they’re ﬁne. Once I had a client who sucked up a commercial crab pot on accident, and the thing punched a hole in his boat. That was the worst-case scenario. Ed: Let’s say you’re a boater on a budget, and you just want to get out there. Is liability insurance your best friend? Yep, you can do just strict liability insurance to get by. Just about all marinas require liability insurance, generally more than $300,000. Increasingly, marinas want at least $500,000 liability insurance coverage minimum. A fair number of yacht clubs are going up to a million.

Fournier Insurance Solutions Fournier Insurance Solutions is an insurance company based in the South Sound with five locations in Western Washington (University Place, Gig Harbor, Chehalis, Montesano, and Bremerton). The company was founded in 1977 by Dick Fournier in Montesano, Washington, and not only covers boat insurance, but personal, business, life, and other industry specialized insurance. fourniersolutions.com Contact: 253-473-3010 (Corporate HQ, University Place, Washington)

With liability insurance, it’s not about covering your own boat, but the damages you can cause. It’s enough to satisfy the marina’s requirement and I suppose it’s better than nothing. The guy whose got an older 27’ sailboat that’s worth a few grand may not think it’s worth it to pay $700 a year to insure it. Ed: Does liability insurance cover a situation where the boat goes sinks in a channel and incurs a lot of costs related to getting it out of there? That leads into another portion of a coverage; salvage and wreck removal. It’s important to read that part of your policy. Most policies will cover salvage cost equal to your hull value, for example, if your boat is valued at $100,000 and you’ll get that much salvage coverage. But, again, it’s important to read that policy. When the Gig Harbor Fire happened in 2005, a lot of people used the same carrier and that company only provided 5% of your hull value for salvage. That ruined a lot of people’s day as they were not adequately covered with their policies.

Ed: What was your takeaway from that disaster from an insurer’s perspective? Were there some lessons learned the hard way? There were a lot of lessons learned from the way in which they managed the rebuilt marina to the individual boater’s insurance policy choices. It was an old marina and, contrary to some people’s beliefs, fiberglass burns really well. Ed: With incidents like that fire, do you have a detective role to play in figuring out what exactly happened, or is that outside the realm of what you do? I don’t get into that stuff, although it certainly effects how whatever company I work with does business. But no, that’s outside of my role as an insurance broker. Our job is to sell insurance policies and help boaters maintain them. I’d say that boaters would be better served to work with boat insurers who specialize in this world. That’s my recommendation to boaters, to seek out insurers in the boating world who know what to look out for.

Kevin’s Catch By Kevin Klein

Continued from Page 61

This method works very well; however, drifting and even downrigger trolling can have their day. Again, when running out to deeper water the big pipe jigs can put fish on the boat. One of the best ways to find good information is to visit the local tackle shop in the area where you will be fishing. They can set you up with what you will need, and can really use our support. Salmon fishing should be open in Canada in May. This can be a good time to intercept some of the early lunker

springs moving through Sooke and Sidney. Saddle up and make a run for the border! So, there are some great opportunities this month to get out on the water. No salmon in the salt right now unless one heads north. However, some river fishing can be had for Chinook. Going with a guide is a great option for those not dialed into the river scene. Next month we will touch on salmon availability, and how to find ‘em and fillet them. Until then, go get some!

Kevin’s Pick: Shockwave seats are the plush way to ride to the fishing grounds! Shockwave makes shock mitigation seating for all types of vessels, but we really see results from these seats when we’re talking long range or offshore runs to where the fish are. No matter how good the ride of a boat is, you will feel better and be able to travel farther with some type of shock mitigation. That’s why even great riding boats like the Lindell Yachts 42s use them. Check out their lineup at shockwaveseats.com.

Washington’s Maritime Blue Initiative By Evin Moore

Washington Governor Jay Inslee has put forth a bold goal to make the state home to the most sustainable maritime industry in the nation by the year 2050. Key to this vision is the Washington Maritime Blue Initiative, a plan developed by Governor Inslee’s Maritime Innovation Advisory Council. The Blue Initiative looks to spur local technology innovation, create eco-friendly industry standards, and lead the shift to

decarbonization. Living-wage jobs, increased workforce training, and best management practices are also key components to the initiative. A $500,000 grant from the U.S. Economic Development Administration Regional Innovation Strategies program made the initiative possible. Also important to the success of the Blue Initiative is rallying the talents of leaders in research, business, and academia involved.

Do You have a choice.

Washington is already known as a trailblazer in green and local maritime practices, and the Blue Initiative plans to promote locally made marine elements from paints to hulls to batteries. Boosting partnership and collaboration between government, business, and scientists is part of the plan, and so is highlighting successes to rally support. The advisory council will be co-chaired by Representative Gael

Tarleton of the Washington State Legislature, Dennis McLerran of Cascadia Law Group and a former EPA Region 10 administrator, and Frank Foti of Vigor, a shipbuilding and industrial service provider. They and the other members of the board will be combining their shared experience to carry out the goals of the initiative, hopefully solidifying Washington as a leader in the so-called “blue economy” in years to come.

NOMAR BUMPERS ®

Nomar® Bumpers are a softmounted bumper which absorbs impact and allows you to slide in and out of your slip with NO FRICTION, DRAG OR MARRING of your hull. This makes for a safer & less stressful docking experience by allowing everyone to stay on board. Nomar® Bumpers eliminate the need for fenders & are perfect for tight docking situations and narrow slips. They also allow the vessel closer to the dock for easier and safer boarding. For more information, visit our website, or call for a FREE price quote.

Have questions about how the Classifieds work? Look no further! I placed my ad on January 5, why is it not in the January issue? The deadline for ad submission is the 5th of each month for the next month’s issue. In the above example, the January issue would have come out on January 1.

What is the best way to ensure that my ad ends up in the issue I want it in? Sometimes snail mail submissions arrive too late to be put in the issue for which they were intended. The most efficient way to place your classified ad is to use the very simple form on our website. Just go to the Place a Classified section, upload your photo, type up your copy, and pay via Paypal (you do not need to have a Paypal account to do this, just a viable credit card).

I placed an “Until it Sells” ad, why has my ad been removed from the magazine? If you refer to our “Place a Classified” page, you’ll see that the “Until it Sells” ad will run up to 6 months. However, if the boat sells BEFORE that six months is up, we will remove the ad per the client’s request. The benefit of an “Until it Sells” ad is that you’re paying only $100 more than a one month ad for up to five more months.

Here we see basic crab pot setups for sale. Simple and affordable, crab pots are usually sold as readyto-go kits that require minimal maintenance. Some crabbing enthusiasts even make their own.

Continued from Page 86

balance, and the best way to do so is to have accurate data – so, please submit your cards! In addition to the above requirements, remember the three S’s: Size, Sex, and Season. You may only retain crab that

are 6¾” or larger. The cards will usually say how many crab may be kept per day, and only males are kept, because it is more essential that more female survive to maintain a stable stock. Many of the marine areas on the Pacific coast of

THE CRABBER’S CHECKLIST Following this checklist should cover a recreational crabber’s bases for a productive trip out. Check the marine forecast. Pack clothes appropriate for the weather. If going out on a boat, always bring one more layer than you think you’ll need – it’s always cooler out on the water. Double check your local regulations, particularly to make sure crabbing is open in that location. Crabbing or combination fishing license with crab endorsement Catch report card Pencils Crab pots (or other crabbing methods – ring nets, dip nets, etc.) Weights for weighing down a pot, particularly if it is a lightweight pot Rope (“line”). General rule is to have enough line for the depth, and double it. Chart depths are at mean lower low water, defined as the average depth at the lower of each day’s two low tides – essentially, the average depth of the lowest tides. Doubling the scope of your line will account for high tides and currents, while also hopefully not running out so much line that you put other boaters at risk of getting line caught in their prop. Buoys – in Washington, sport crabbers must have at least one red and white marker buoy. This marker buoy must be marked with the operators first name, last name, and address. Buoy line weights - Buoy lines weights help prevent the lines from floating on the surface and causing potential damage and danger to other boaters in the area. Bait (herring, rockfish carcasses, salmon heads, clams, chicken or turkey parts, or even dog or cat food). Many argue the fresher, the better. Measuring gauge or ruler for measuring crab Gloves – if you are wary of getting pinched! ID picture to help differentiate between males and females, if you are not familiar, and for identifying soft-shell crab. Cooler with a wet towel soaked in saltwater (place over the crab, and then place ice over the towel to keep them cool). Do not store in water. Snacks and beverages Crabbing buddies! If going out on a boat, remember to bring your regular boat necessities – boating license, safety equipment (life jackets, flares, etc.). If going out on a shore or pier, also be aware of the usual risks of being near the ocean.

110 NORTHWEST YACHTING || MAY 2018

Washington State are open to crabbing every day, year-round. If a marine area is currently closed to crab fishing (usually areas within Puget Sound), they will be open during the summer of this year (2018), but make sure to check before heading out. Closures are usually due to it being a peak soft-shell period for Dungeness crab, meaning that they are going through a molting season and are very vulnerable, don’t have a good meatto-body weight, and at the very least, don’t taste very good. You are required by WDFW to return soft-shell crab to the water.

FINAL THOUGHTS Pots keep crab in great condition – a crab returned to the water after being caught in a pot generally has a high chance of surviving, in comparison to a fish that has been fighting and stressing itself out on a line for a long time. If you do find crab that cannot be kept (are either females or are too small), drop them as gently as possible to prevent their shells from cracking, and definitely don’t do the “frisbee toss.” Return them to the water as soon as possible—crab sitting out of the water for any period of time will start to dry out (or desiccate), lowering their chance of survival due to increased fragility of their shell. A study conducted by Dr. Noelle Yochum of the Alaska Fisheries Science Center showed that increased times out of water and dropping crab from large heights above the water (say from a boat or a pier) can crack the shell of a Dungeness crab, and severely decrease their chance of surviving. If you are high off the water, lower the crab gently to the water with a bucket so it has the best chance to recover. In conclusion, if you are planning on going fishing out on a charter vessel, many will have the option to add crab on to your license for the day, and I would highly recommend it! You’ll be jealous of your fellow shipmates that get to take home some delicious, fresh Dungeness crab at the end of the day.

3. Sailing Selfie! The annual Blakely Rock Benefit Race this year (April 7) was a great time. Tigger (a Flying Tiger 10) crew sent us this pic, “in our happy place.” Photo cred: Matthew Procyk, @ft10tigger

4. Bumper Boat? The high-tech research vessel Rainier "made contact with the

seabed and a concrete wall" (aka crashed) on April 16 while passing through the Montlake Cut of Seattle. A little early for Opening Day, no? Photo: NOAA

5. The Best Boy: Puppers, our beloved four-legged friend, passed away at age 14.

One of Northwest Yachting’s official mascots, Pups often helped deliver magazines to the greater Seattle area. He loved car rides and treats, and is missed by all.

6. Medal for Heroism: Petty Officer 1 Class Jacob Hylkema (Coast Guard Station st

Grays Harbor) was presented a medal for heroism on April 6. The award is for his heroic efforts in rescuing a man off Long Beach Peninsula on October 6, 2016. Photo: Petty Officer 1st Class Levi Read

8. Bad Day: The US Coast Guard (USCG) rescued three boaters (a man and two

women) on March 31 near Vancouver, Washington. According to a USCG press release, the man leapt back into the water after being rescued in an attempt to save his boat, which did sink. He was re-rescued and returned to shore and safety. Can’t blame a guy for trying, right? Photo: USCG Station Portland.

9. Factory with Mr. Perry: Bob Perry and his trusty Portuguese water dog Ruby at the James Betts Enterprises, Inc. factory in Anacortes, Washington. In the background is one of the four Bulletproof 43 hulls of his design nearing completion.

10. D on’t Tri this at Home! Legendary Astoria, Oregon-based Northwest Yachting

contributor Peter Marsh is on a new mission: completely overhaul the design of his DIY trimaran to create a hybrid between a pod cat and a trimaran, the Tri-Pod! Stay tuned for updates, for this salty writer has his eyes set on “Alaska one more time by 2020.” Here he poses with his newly acquired bow, some assembly required.

11. Qingdao to Seattle Clipper Race Complete: The Pacific Leg (6) of the Clipper

Round the World Race from Qingdao, China to Seattle has ended with team Qingdao taking first place. Now safely nestled in Bell Harbor Marina, the Clipper fleet enjoys a Pacific Northwest breather before the next leg. Photo: Jean-Marcus Strole Photography
