FROM THE HELM
Remember, Remember The 5th of November
I always have to thank Guy Fawkes, the failed conspirator of the Gunpowder Plot of 1605 that was meant to blow up the House of Lords in London, for adding a layer of mystique to my birthday. November fifth this year marks my 28th year Norris Comer of life, as good a year as any I suppose. Throw on Election Day (this year November 7), and the falling leaves, and November is shaping up to be a month of transitions and change. At least Thanksgiving will always be the same, a spiritual anchor of familiarity during a topsy-turvy time of year. “Remember, remember–” the Gunpowder Plot nursery rhyme begins. Let’s endeavor to create boating memories that are no less memorable, but ideally less infamous. One such memory I’ve made was during my recent visit to Idaho where I poked about the area’s waterways. For a coastal dweller like myself who is prone to looking westward over the Pacific, I too often neglect to look east to our inland waters. The takeaway from my visit to the Coeur d’Alene area was that, next time, I need to come with a boat on a trailer! From some of the American West’s most iconic rivers—like the Columbia, Snake, and Clearwater—to the lakes like Pend Oreille, Priest, and Coeur d’Alene, the
Gem State is saturated with boating promise. What’s more, some of the nation’s – dare I say the world’s – finest custom wood boats are built locally in Idaho. It ain’t all potatoes, folks. Perhaps it’s time to bring Idaho into the Cascadia fold? Another experience I’ll “remember, remember” is the Adventuress Gala (p.14), the annual fundraising event for Sound Experience. For the uninitiated, Sound Experience is a nonprofit that operates Washington’s official educational tallship, the Adventuress. I was inspired by the record setting crowd of over 200 guests and over $150,000 of funds raised. Not only does the educational and environmental stewardship work of Sound Experience exemplify the best of what boating and maritime heritage can do, but that the organization has a community that is willing to put its money where its mouth is speaks volumes. It truly takes a village to operate a tallship, after all. From our helm to yours, we wish you many memories this November on the water. The skies may be grayer, but that also means that there are more open slips and anchorages to be had. For those willing to bundle up, now is the perfect time to have the water all to yourself. Get out there and make some memories to be thankful for around that turkey. Happy Boating!

Adventuress Fundraising Success Sound Experience Raises $153,000 at Annual Gala By Norris Comer
The nonprofit organization Sound Experience held its 8th annual fundraising event “Party for the Adventuress” in the Seattle Design Center on October 7, 2017. The record-setting event was attended by 280 guests and raised $153,000 to support the youth education and environmental stewardship facilitated aboard the tallship Adventuress. The formal affair included both silent and live auctions, as well as audience participation events with prizes. Items auctioned ranged from Northwest wine baskets to various nautical-themed experiences with local companies. Volunteers and program participants alike shared stories of experiences aboard the Adventuress throughout the night. King 5's Stephen Kilbreath, a morning radio show host, was the lead auctioneer and kept the night lively.
Sound Experience aboard the historic schooner Adventuress, Washington’s official educational tallship, often touts its mission statement to “educate, inspire, and empower an inclusive community that works to improve our marine environment and celebrates our maritime heritage.” To this end, many programs are offered that include all-women multiday excursions, youth marine science experiences, and maritime trades workshops. With the motto "We are all shipmates," the goals of Sound Experience emphasize diversity and inclusivity in all that they do. Aboard, a unique culture prevails, one that adheres to a vegan diet and sings songs instead of setting alarms clocks for the early morning shifts. The largely volunteer crew is often made up of locals who remember seeing the Adventuress sail past when they were kids, and they take
great pride in continuing the Adventuress tradition to the next generation. The history of the Adventuress is also a fascinating story unto itself rich in local lore. From a maiden voyage to the Arctic with Roy Chapman Andrews (the inspiration for Indiana Jones) to secure a bowhead whale specimen to a stint with the San Francisco Bar Pilots, the Adventuress ultimately was saved from becoming derelict by a number of champions over the decades, including the Girl Scouts of America. Today the Adventuress is an iconic sight on Puget Sound waters, and with the generous backing of her supporters through events like this recent fundraiser, she will continue to inspire for the foreseeable future.
Left to Right: The long list of Sound Experience sponsors includes Northwest Yachting magazine; good food and high bidding were staples of the exciting evening.

Why Are There No Pacific Northwest Hurricanes? By Charles Adams
The 2017 Atlantic hurricane season has been all over the news recently, and the curious among us may naturally wonder why the Pacific Northwest is spared such devastation. The Pacific Northwest is no stranger to gales of tropical storm force (34 knots) or greater, however, the region is rarely affected by exotic meteorological phenomenon such as hurricanes. Cyclones, hurricanes, and typhoons all refer to an organized weather system originating in tropical to subtropical waters and characterized by closed low-level circulation. In the northwestern Pacific, the storms are called typhoons; in the Indian Ocean, they are called cyclones or cyclonic storms; and familiarly in the Atlantic and northeast Pacific, they are called hurricanes. The northeast Pacific generates approximately 16 named storms per year, while the Atlantic produces on average 10 and yet, western North America usually ends its hurricane season impact-free. The main heroes protecting our coast are cold water and prevailing winds.
One key ingredient to hurricane formation is a water temperature o above 26.6 C, which is typical for the equatorial Atlantic year-round. Water temperature is important because a hurricane is like a giant heat engine fueled by warm moist air, which produces wind and wave energy. If you remove the fuel (warm water evaporating into the air) from the engine, the system will collapse and the storm will dissipate. In the northeast Pacific, the California Curo rent flows south from Alaska, feeding 15-20 C water toward the equator. While this current makes the water too cold for leisure swimming (excluding a few brave souls) throughout most of the year, it serves to inhibit storm formation near the coast and drastically weakens any hurricane that strays too near. In both the Atlantic and Pacific, tropical storm generation typically occurs near the equator, with the storms trending in an east to west Continued on Page 18

Back to Boating School The kids have been back to school for a few months now, but thanks to local opportunities for boating education, there’s no reason boaters should feel left out. Northwest Boater Training has recently announced their fall lineup of classes from the United States Power Squadron for Washington. These classes include the scheduled America’s Boating Course (ABC) classes, advanced classes, and seminars. Many of these offerings include on-the-water training. To see what’s being offered in your area, check out nwboatertraining.com. Washington Sea Grant has also announced a U.S. Coast Guard-approved First Aid at Sea workshop. The First Aid at Sea workshop will educate mariners on how to effectively treat hypothermia, near-drowning, shock, trauma, burns, fractures, and more while on the water. The workshop is co-sponsored by the Port of Bellingham and is scheduled for Friday, December 8, from 0900 to 1700 hours at the Port of Bellingham. The cost is $100 or $50 for commercial fishermen. To register, contact Sarah Fisken of the Washington Sea Grant at sfisken@u.washington.edu or call at 206-543-1225.

Owners can choose to incorporate a washer and dryer, extra refrigerator or freezer, or a wine chiller, so storage spaces elsewhere won’t be compromised. Both staterooms have a private head with shower stall. A mid-level galley enjoys the light from the overhead windshield and is convenient to the main salon.

Conservation Corps Members Help Rebuild After Hurricanes By David M. Rivera
Since late August, the southern US and the Caribbean islands have been pummeled by one massive hurricane after another—first Harvey, then Irma, and finally Maria. Following each of these natural disasters, the US has responded by sending thousands of federal employees and volunteers to help in the recovery efforts, and the Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology) is following suit. Ecology will be sending 60 individuals from the Washington Conservation Corps (WCC) to assist AmeriCorps Disaster Response Team, already on site with more than 2,000 members. The Washington Conservation Corps is a sub-agency of Ecology, and employs young men and women from ages 18-25 in an outreach program dedicated to the protection and enhancement
Hurricane Harvey's aquatic rescues may be over, but now it's time to rebuild - and the Conservation Corps aims to help.

Boat House
NO5
A fully-restored classic wood pocket cruiser, designed by Bill Garden and built by Gordon Lacey as a salmon fishing launch in Brentwood Bay, Boat House No. 5 is stunning example of this cat boat design. After an $85,000 restoration by Philbrooks Boatyard from stem to stern, including engine and electrical, this vessel truly defines the term "Bristol Condition". Her gleaming paint and flawless varnish set Boat House No. 5 apart as a "one of a kind" picnic/day boat, while boasting a full sleeping cabin and proper marine head in her cozy fore cabin. Winner for “best Pocket Cruiser” at the 2014 Victoria Classic Boat Festival.

that allow for faster and more efficient recovery operations. Twenty-four of these young leaders will head to the Caribbean to help manage efforts by directing volunteers, coordinating donations, assessing damage, removing debris, and delivering essential goods among a multitude of other duties from hurricane Maria. Twelve of these members will head to Puerto Rico and another dozen to the U.S. Virgin Islands. In Texas, the WCC will be sending a second group of 24 members to assist with efforts from Hurricane Harvey damage. The first team arrived shortly after Harvey hit land and worked alongside the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). The first team was so helpful that an additional team was asked to be sent out. This time they will be removing debris from homes and streets. "Since the beginning of October, WCC teams have finished 326 damage assessments, mucked and gutted 84 homes, and are supporting seven Volunteer Recep-
tion Centers in Texas,” according to anEcology newsletter. The last 12 members from the WCC will be heading to Florida to lead roof tarping building projects, remove debris, and help set up operating bases for their incoming AmeriCorps partners. The WCC is considered quite small with only about 350 members currently serving, so the deployment of three teams to three different locations is a big deal to the state. According to Ecology communications manager, Curt Hart, “WCC has never responded simultaneously to three different hurricanes in three different areas at the same time.” Thanks to individuals like these, not only are Washington state citizens able to enjoy well-managed natural resources, but are also able to contribute to the rebuilding of our country time and time again in the face of extreme environmental catastrophes.

Department of Corrections We made an error in our Ask the Experts article on pages 92 and 93 of our October 2017 issue. Jack Christiansen, North Sails expert extraordinaire, is spelled “Christianson” throughout the copy. Especially for the Scandinavians among us, the mistake is very grave. Generally, a surname that ends with “-son” suggests Swedish heritage, while “-sen” suggests Danish or Norwegian. We didn’t intend to flare up old rivalries, and apologize for the mistake.

Crowhursts' Incredible Journey
The sad remains of the Teignmouth Electron remained intact for many years on Cayman Brac after washing ashore during a hurricane in 1988. Subsequent storms mostly destroyed it by 2011.
A Voyage for Madmen by Peter Nichols By Greg Van Belle
The most amazing nautical adventure story in modern history isn’t Slocum circumnavigating the globe in the late 1800s, it isn’t a solo sailor surviving against all odds after being dismasted in the Pacific, and it isn’t a shipwreck survivor fighting her way back to civilization. The most incredible nautical adventure still is that of Donald Crowhurst in the inaugural Golden Globe Race. His story is so epic and tragic that even today it seems too scripted to be true, fitting for the story of a man who faked his way around the globe using sophisticated cartography and electronic trickery.
24 NORTHWEST YACHTING || NOVEMBER 2017
You likely already know the basic story of Crowhurst’s ill-fated entry into the first Golden Globe, and you will be hearing more about it in the coming year as a movie project based on Crowhurst’s story hits the theaters. When I heard of this cinematic competition for what I’ve always considered the greatest adventure story in history, I decided it was time to revisit Peter Nichols’ fabulous story of that ill-fated race. In 1968, nine sailors set out to be the fastest around the world, single-handed. The feat had been accomplished before by at least 18 people,
including Joshua Slocum, who was the first to do so. But never had it been done nonstop. No provisioning. No repairs. The rules for the Golden Globe were shockingly simple, and entry was mostly a matter of putting up a boat and declaring oneself a competitor. Donald Crowhurst came to the race as a talented but eccentric electrical engineer. He had an inventor’s mind and the crushing debt that went along with all of his failed creations. Unlike the other entries in the race, including Sir Continued on Page 26

Crowhursts' Epic Journey Continued from Page 24
Robin Knox-Johnston and Bernard Moitessier, Crowhurst had almost no sailing experience, and certainly no open water miles to speak of. Crowhurst also had no boat. He had no sponsors. But he saw the race as a very public way to advertise his business and his inventions. Peter Nichols takes us through the preparations, and we wince with the confidence of hindsight at every shortcut and risk Crowhurst takes along the way. The boat he finally has built is called Teignmouth Electron, a 40’ trimaran
made of plywood. Pictures of him standing on deck, barely 12’ of freeboard showing, make it look as if the boat was sinking before the race even started. You and I would certainly not readily head to sea on such a boat. Sailing around the world solo on a modern boat with redundant safety features and a suite of electronics is daunting enough. Crowhurst leaves port on the last possible day to still qualify for the race, his boat still unfinished, and his electronic systems not
Win it!
Northwest Yachting's 30th Birthday Year of Giving The monthly giveaways continue as part of our Year of Giving, a year-long celebration of Northwest Yachting’s 30th birthday. The best part is, we’re giving you, the reader, the presents! This month’s winner will step back in time to the 1930s aboard the 87’ classic fantail yacht, the M/V Discovery. The winner can invite someone special or a small group of friends for a three-hour private yacht charter on beautiful Lake Union and Lake Washington. Many guests like to time their cruise to take advantage of lakeside vistas, house- boats communities, and views of Mount Rainier during daylight hours, then return to the Seattle as the sun sets and the city skyline shines at night. Alternately, you may like to organize a Christmas party and time your event to coincide with the Christmas Ship Festival and parade of boats, an annual Seattle event every December which features Discovery. Discovery is available for
charter by the hour, daily, and for overnight cruises in Seattle, Puget Sound, and the San Juan Islands. If adventure cruising is more your style, you may like to join the boat for one of its weeklong trip Southeast Alaska during the summer months. Discovery is an ideal venue for small groups looking for something different to do in Seattle and Puget Sound and is popular for birthday parties, weddings, family gettogethers, and corporate events. The atmosphere on board is relaxed and the crew from Discovery Journeys will help plan events ranging from fully-catered, formal occasions to a casual cocktail party or overnight cruises. If you are interested in winning, simply sign up for our monthly digital newsletter online at nwyachting.com/signup or send an email to advertising@ nwyachting.com. The winner will be selected randomly and notified after the prize drawing. Good luck!

Crowhurst during the race in 1968. properly functioning. We all know the outcome. He didn’t make it. Crowhurst’s boat was found adrift in the Atlantic Ocean. This isn’t a spoiler. We know going in that he doesn’t return to England. The ending isn’t the story. The story is in what Donald Crowhurst did accomplish. In addition to sailing a leaking, ill-fitted boat thousands of miles into the deep South Atlantic, Crowhurst made the world think he was somewhere he was not. He faked his way around the globe. Using his extensive knowledge of radio communications and chart plotting, Crowhurst managed to remain unseen on the ocean while sending messages back to the mainland that made it seem as if he were making incredible progress. At one point, he claims a 24-hour distance record, while in reality he was drifting off the coast of South America. He kept two logbooks, one of his actual positions so he knew where he really was, and one of his fake positions, which ostensibly he would hand over to the race committee at the finish as proof of his voyage. The details of his deceit and the actual voyage he makes are painstakingly researched and detailed by Nichols, and this book reads like fiction.
Unlike other books about this same race such as The Strange Last Voyage of Donald Crowhurst, Nichols’ book covers all nine sailors with incredible detail and care. Still, it is Crowhurst’s tragic tale that sticks with you. You want to treat him like a con artist or a thief. You don’t want like him, but you almost have to. You can see his downfall coming as tiny pinpricks of bad decisions begin to add up and you beg him to not go. As a sailor, I am more amazed at what he accomplished with so little experience and such a hopeless vessel under him than I am bothered by his dishonesty. I wonder, as I finish the book for perhaps the third time, what would have become of Donald Crowhurst had he survived. What he did was dishonest. It was deliberate cheating. But the scope of his accomplishment is staggering. In the coming months, when Colin Firth hits the screen as Crowhurst in the film now titled The Mercy, we will get to see the cinematic retelling of this story, but as with all adaptations of real life stories, much will be lost to the confines of the cinematic experience. Take the time to read Nichols’ account of the race before heading to the cinema.

Cocktail of the Month
November for many means the peak and end of pumpkin fever. This season-focused pumpkin martini underscores the truth that there truly is a martini for every occasion. While pumpkin puree isn’t exactly common aboard a typical boat, with a little preparation, you’ll be surprising your autumn guests with a memorable winning libation. Enjoy!

es t o N s s e n i s Bu Mark Yuasa Selected as New NMTA Director The Northwest Marine Trade Association (NMTA) recently announced the addition of Mark Yuasa to their staff as the new Director of Grow Boating programs. Yuasa will be responsible for overseeing the Northwest Salmon Derby Series, managing grants and sponsorships tied to the Seattle Boat Show, and organizing various boating events. We caught up with Yuasa, who has been hitting the ground running, to ask a few questions. How is your experience with the NMTA going thus far? Are you excited to be a part of the team? The NMTA has brought something new and exciting every day since I began in early September. I’m still learning and gaining knowledge, but feel that I bring a lot to the table that will be valuable for the NMTA and its members. The team at the NMTA office is a great and
highly motivated small group of individuals who all enjoy boating and the outdoors, and we each do our part to help out with a wide variety of tasks around the office. There is a time to be serious and focused, but on occasion we like to have fun, talk about life outside the office, laugh and smile, and open the windows and smell the fresh air wafting off Lake Union. What do you bring to the table? How have your past experiences equipped you for the job? I worked for 33 years at The Seattle Times, and more than 25 years as the fishing and outdoors columnist. Fishing and boating are both deeply intertwined, and have been lifelong passions of mine. Each has given me a deep understanding of just how important their roles play in the Pacific Northwest where we are lucky enough to be surrounded by so many bodies of water!

The
Carter Advantage I have been very i n v o l ve d in Boy Scouting with my two sons, and feel that one of the most important values in life is ensuring our youth get a chance to enjoy the many outdoor activities, which coincidentally include boating, sailing, and fishing just to name a few. The youth are our leaders and recreational boaters of tomorrow. My experience will help ensure directing the NMTA’s Grow Boating Program—the largest regional program in the country—that includes the Northwest Salmon Derby Series; writing a monthly sport-fishing column Reel Times with Mark; promotions and public relations; and grants and event sponsorships will keep us sailing in the right direction. Is anything exciting on the horizon that boaters can look forward to? I am in the process of finalizing the Seattle Boat Show fishing seminars, and we’ve got a refreshed lineup of fishing experts along with a few new ones. Without getting into too many details, we have some geared to kayak fishing and others that will key-in on fishing east of the Cascades. Also, look for some new changes to the Northwest Salmon Fishing Derby Series in 2018! The addition of a new third location for the Seattle Boat Show at Bell Harbor Marina means more boats on display, including some eye-popping larger vessels, plus free parking is back with a shuttle service between all three show locations and improved ticket options. I was involved in the advertising creative selection process, and boaters can look forward to a new logo design, revamped advertising campaign, and a new website for the Seattle Boat Show.

MarineMax has had a relationship with Alexander Marine since 2014, and is a brokerage dealer for several brands, including Azimut.
Alexander Marine Acquires San Diego's MarineMax Alexander Marine USA announced October 4, 2017, that the company acquired MarineMax San Diego, a yacht brokerage dealer for Azimut, Galeon, and Aquila Yachts. “This acquisition presents an opportunity for Alexander Marine USA to expand our brand and model offerings, bringing a wider range of options, a higher quality experience, and an increased level of convenience to our customers,” said Ray Prokorym, Vice President of Alexander Marine
USA, in a press release. “As the demographics of boaters are changing and demand is increasing, we are pleased to be able to now offer quality, European, and internationally built brands such as Azimut, Galeon, and Aquila.” Alexander Marine International, the parent company of Alexander Marine USA and manufacturer of Ocean Alexander yachts, began a relationship with MarineMax in 2014, whereby MarineMax became the exclusive East Coast dealer for Ocean Alexander yachts. With
the acquisition, Alexander Marine USA will become a partner-dealer with MarineMax for certain West Coast markets. Alexander Marine USA will now operate in three locations (Seattle, Newport Beach, and San Diego) as MarineMax’s partner-dealer for Azimut, Galeon, and Aquila. Alexander Marine USA will continue to operate as the official dealer for Ocean Alexander yachts and Regal boats on the West Coast, Pursuit Boats in the Southwest, and Tiara Yachts in the Northwest.
Navico and Bavaria Yachts Make A Deal Navico-owned Simrad and B&G brands will become the standard-fit electronics for Bavaria’s sailing yachts, motorboats, and catamarans after a deal was announced on October 12, 2017. “Navico is very proud of this collaboration with Bavaria Yachts and will continue to work with them to provide the best equipment available to sailing and powerboat enthusiasts,” said Navico CEO Leif Ottosson in a statement. Some notable examples of this partnership are manifested in Bavaria’s newest builds, including the C65, now fitted exclusively with B&G Zeus3 multifunction chartplotters. Also, the brand-new Bavaria R55 motorboat will also come fitted with Simrad NSS evo3 and Simrad 4G radar as standard.

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.
Cycling Cypress, Or No?
Handled with Care
Dear Greg Van Belle, The cycling in San Juans article was great. I was particularly interested in cycling on Cypress Island as we spend lots of time next door on Guemes Island. I would love to ride on Cypress Island, but when I asked DNR several years ago they said cycling wasn’t allowed. I hope that the rules have changed or maybe some roads are okay and some not? Thanks, Randy Shuman
Dear Northwest Yachting, I want to thank you for how you sent my subscription in a nice envelope. I know that the expense exists. If you think a bit of coin for postage is warranted, I'd be pleased to participate. Receiving the magazine in perfect condition is a boon. Past editions of some time ago often appeared to have been well-read or abused in route!! Al Johnson-Ketchikan
Greg Van Belle: Thanks for the response. It turns out you are correct. The trails on Cypress Island are open only to hiking and trail running. No cycling allowed. This means we accidentally broke the rules when we did a ride there a few years back. I apologize for this oversight. You can find out more about the Cypress Island Natural Resources Conservation Area at https://www.dnr.wa.gov/ CypressIsland. The site covers important seasonal closures and includes a recently updated trail map.
Ed: No problem, Al! We’re glad that you’re getting your magazines and we’ll do all we can from our end to make sure you get a clean copy. Heads up, we are increasing our annual subscription rate from $30 to $40 at the end of November, 2017 to cover our shipping costs.
Send us your letters! We want to hear from you!

2018 Riviera 4800 Sport Yacht The Australian-built Riviera 4800 Sport Yacht 2018 is a new build slated to arrive in the Seattle area this January. With its sleek, modern design and sporty performance, the 4800 seems to empathize that luxury and utility can go hand in hand. A novel and readily identifiable feature when stepping aboard is the electronic tender garage built into the transom of the yacht between the swim step and covered cockpit. An outdoor galley to the port and a BBQ station built into the transom/tender garage are also located in the cockpit to make entertaining that much easier. The cockpit is designed with hosting in mind, and ample seating is positioned around a dining table. A stainless steel framed awning with side curtains adds protection to the cockpit deck. The rails lead forward to the large foredeck that has a padded sun lounge area. Inside, the generous windows built into the cabin and the expansive headroom make for an interior that feels like a larger

yacht. Two cabins with two enclosed heads accommodate five people. There is more seating around a dining table inside in the form of an elevated c-shaped wraparound lounge to starboard. The real attractor is the helm. With leather detailing and a racecar feel, the skipper has control of modern features like IPS joystick controls for easy docking. What’s more, a sunroof can open up the cabin on a nice day. The 4800 is powered by two Volvo Penta D8-IPS800 inboard diesel engines. At the recommended cruising speed of around 26 knots, the yacht has an estimated range of around 300 nautical miles. The Riviera 4800 Sport Yacht looks like a great mid-sized luxury sport cruiser for those who want to arrive at their destination with speed and style.

2017 Beneteau Swift Trawler 30 New to Beneteau’s growing family of long-distance, motor trawler yachts is the 2017 Beneteau Swift Trawler 30, a lot of boat in a compact package. This Frenchmade trawler appears to be a good fit for the Pacific Northwest, an area known for its trawler heritage. A few notable features include the fold-down transom that deploys into a swim step. A table also can be deployed in the covered cockpit. A walkway along the starboard rails of the boat leads to the lounge pads and short bowsprit of the foredeck. There is also a cabin access door
located along the walkway. From the cockpit is a ladder that leads up to the open flybridge, complete with nav station. The cabin itself is roomy and feels open, in part thanks to the large cabin windows. A galley is positioned to the port, while sofa seating and a foldaway table are starboard. The seating and table convert into a large guest berth when needed. A large master stateroom sits in the v-berth, as does an enclosed head with shower. The boat is powered by an inboard Volvo D6 370-hp diesel engine
that reportedly allows for a cruise speed of 10 knots and a maximum speed of 20 knots. If you’re in the market for a pocket trawler with modern inno-
vations, you might want to consider the Swift Trawler 30. Contact local dealer Denison Yacht Sales for pricing, or visit denisonyachts.com for more information.

2018 Hatteras M90 Panacera The 2018 Hatteras M90 Panacera, the newest build from the manufacturer, stands proud among the debut of notable luxury motoryachts from the 2017 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show (November 1 through 5). The design clearly has an emphasis on openness, from the exterior that lends itself to entertaining large groups to the interior’s generous accommodations. What’s more, the yacht was built right here in America at the Hatteras Yachts facility in New Bern, North Carolina. The exterior layout is such that a guest will always have space to relax. A generous swim step aft blends easily into the covered seating area of the cockpit. One can venture to the foredeck easily along expansive and deeply seated walkways to find a large seating area around a table and lounge space. The flybridge is open with a outdoor galley that has cookout written all over it. The helm station and more seating is located
forward in the flybridge and is covered with a hardtop in the standard version. An enclosed flybridge model is also available. The interior nicely matches the theme of generous space and accommodations, and with 22’6” of beam, why not go all the way in terms of luxury? The four-stateroom layout also features dedicated captain and crew staterooms aft. The wraparound glass of the cabin not only lights up the interior, but also gives the yacht a modern sleek look. The yacht is powered by twin CAT C32A 1600-hp

2018 Four Winns Vista 355 The new 2018 Four Winns Vista 355 is a sporty cruiser fresh out of the factory. Built to accommodate both day and overnight trips, this mid-sized motoryacht seems like a natural fit for the San Juans and beyond. A notable feature of the new 355 are the twin inboard diesel engines complete with joystick controls, which should translate to on-a-dime turning. Engine options include different MerCruiser and Volvo packages. Coupled with the 200-gallon fuel tank, the 355 is well-equipped for a weekend away. The exterior layout is open and conducive to entertaining guests. A swim step aft is accessed by a portside transom walkway. A U-shaped seating arrangement with table is oriented aft of the helm station
covered by a hard T-top. The foredeck is quite large and accommodates sun pads for lounging. Below, the cabin is accentuated with rich woodwork and options include dark cherry or light maple. A fully enclosed head with shower should keep everyone happy. An
enclosed stateroom option is available, and additional seating is created by converting an L-shaped sofa into a berth. The 2018 Four Winns Vista 355 is currently available from local dealer Marine Servicenter and is listed at $429,807. More information is available at marinesc.com.

2018 Prestige 630 The 2018 Prestige 630 is a luxury motoryacht new to the Prestige lineup with a sporty edge. The exterior is especially eye-catching complete and it’s easy to imagine carefree days of Pacific Northwest cruising from the flybridge. An expansive swim step aft leads into the covered seating around a table in the cockpit. From there, a guest can enter the cabin, proceed up a flight of stairs to the flybridge, or follow the guard rails forward to the foredeck. The foredeck follows the popular modern trend of featuring a builtin padded lounge space. The flybridge is covered with a convertible hardtop that can open up when the weather is nice. Seating around a dining table and a complete nav station are also located on the flybridge.
Inside, the 680 has all the comforts of home with four staterooms and three heads. Wraparound glass built into the topsides of the hull and around the cabin go a long way to let in natural light, a theme of the build. The 630 is powered by twin Volvo IPS 950 engines that each dish out 725 hp. With a
cruising speed of 24 knots, a maximum speed of 28 knots, and a range of 305 miles, this yacht gets you there quickly and in style. Interested? Contact local dealer Sundance Yacht Sales for more information or check out sundanceyachts.com. The 2018 Prestige 630 is currently priced at $2,672,685.

Prime Time! Oceanair 62 Series Medium Build Epoxy Primer As fall sets in and the project to-do list gets tackled, many of us will be in need of a reliable primer for topsides paint jobs. The 62 Series Modified Epoxy Primer, from Oceanair Coatings is a surface-tolerant, zinc phosphate epoxy primer for interior or exterior surfaces above the waterline. The 62 Series primer adheres to a wide variety of surfaces, including carbon steel, aluminum, galvanized steel, coated surfaces, and dry wood. It is corrosion inhibiting and UV resistant, providing extra protection, especially under translucent colors. The 62 Series is also low VOC chemically,
which is good for our environment. This primer is a sandable surfacer or quick-drying, non-sanding sealer that can be recoated in just two hours. The short time between recoats can save many hours of dry time and sanding labor. What’s more, Oceanair products are made in the USA. If you are looking for a high quality, time saving primer, or a complete marine coatings system, you may want to take a look at Oceanair's lineup. Find more information and dealers at oceanaircoatings.com.

Stylish, contemporary, and functional, this product line was designed specifically for the marine environment. Gill’s jackets and vests are insulated with 650-fill-power and packed with a 90/10 water-resistant duck down; it’s lightweight, super warm, and perfect for sailing in cold, wet, and windy conditions. As Gill reminds us, down is a fantastic natural insulator because it’s so light and lofty and traps air so effectively. As sailors know, that’s not so true if it gets wet. So, Gill developed this sailing wear with water-repellent down for all-weather comfort and everyday appeal. Gill says the unique coated micro-baffle construction is nonclumping and traps warmth better by resisting water longer and drying quicker. Constructed with a high collar, full front zipper, and bilateral hip pockets, the grey outer layer contrasts with a bright red lining. Sailors will appreciate hand warmer pockets, an internal chest pocket, and the adjustable hem. With its windproof and water-repellent outer shell, the jackets and vests are lightweight and easy to pack and stow. The men’s Hydrophobe Down line comes in Charcoal, sizes XS through XXL. Women's Hydrophobe Down products are available in pewter sizes 6 through 14. Men and women’s jackets are $179.00. Men’s and women’s vests are $139.00. Shop GillNA.com, Amazon.com, or your favorite marine retailer to get on board for winter sailing in style. 42 NORTHWEST YACHTING || NOVEMBER 2017

Leverage in a Can Liquid Wrench / $9.99
There’s no shortage of great penetrants/ lubricants, but only one (as far as we know) that also has an integrated LED light. The Pro Penetrant and Lubricant Powered by FlashSight Technology from Liquid Wrench not only features a fast-acting, anti-seize formula made to combat corrosion, loosen rusty bolts, and displace moisture, but you can see in the dark as you do it. An integrated LED light positioned above the spray port helps the user see what he or she is doing. In other words, don’t just penetrate the rust, penetrate the darkness. The lubricant is made to help protect all metals including copper, brass, bronze, iron, cast iron, steel, aluminum, titanium, and chrome - this stuff does it all. Interestingly, this lubricant has zero VOCs and is completely biodegradable due to it being a solvent produced from sugar cane. If an eco-friendly lubricant with a handy light on top calls to you, an 11-ounce can is available from autozone.com for $9.99.
Reel Beauty Islander TR3 Reel / $723.00
Show-stopping good looks can only improve your day of fishing, so check out Islander’s latest, the TR3 fully sealed disk drag mooching reel. It’s not just the stunning looks that count; inside the TR3 is an all new stacked disk system made from ultra-high-performance fluoropolymer material known for its low coefficient of friction, durability, and consistent performance across wide temperature ranges. Islander is promoting this newest reel for smooth consistent performance, zero startup inertia, and fighting power. But doesn’t beauty take a lot of maintenance? The TR3’s four O-rings create an impenetrable barrier for the fully ceramic bearings, which prevent contamination and corrosion. As a result, the drag requires virtually no ongoing mainte-
nance to perform at its best. Now that the TR3 has you looking, check out the oversized, ported paddle handles added to give you a more secure grip in challenging weather. There’s a newly designed ventilated spool, a no-creep system for precision depth control, plus minimum drag setting to prevent overrunning birds’ nests. Of course, the standard Islander reel features are still there along with the two-year warranty against manufacturing defects. Specifications: Diameter is 4.6”, width is 0.9”, and the TR3 weighs 17.6 oz. It holds 350 yds. of 30 lb. monofilament. The TR3 is available from fishing retailers or direct from the manufacturer at ca.store.islander.com, at about $723.00 USD.

Cool Runnings YETI Hopper Two Cooler / $300.00 - 400.00 Frustrated with cheap gear? The YETI company says they set out to “build a cooler without compromise—one that would stand up to all the abuse we could throw at it.” Now, one of the fastest growing brands in the outdoor industry is lifting the lid on the Hopper Two™, an adventure soft-sided cooler that’s 100% leak-proof. Yes, you read that right boaters, no more soggy cushions or slippery deck! YETI uses airtight HydroLok Zippers, usually found on waders, hazmat suits, and dry suits. Hopper Two™ coolers even come with zipper oil for longevity.
The Hopper Two™ is intended for easy hauling, so YETI built in a sturdy shoulder mount and tapered top. Welded seams and 1.5″ thick “ColdCell” insulation (closed-cell rubber foam) are supposed to keep your drinks cold for days. Packed with additional accessibility upgrades, the product line is available in 20, 30, and 40-liter options. YETI promotes the durability of the Hopper Two™ inside and out; DryHide Shell is the tough, waterproof lining fabric. Since the Hopper Two ™ is sold as resistant to mildew, punc-
tures, and UV rays, it could be the last time you worry about what’s inside, or outside, your cooler. Although actual punctures and normal wear-and-tear aren’t covered under the generous three-year warranty, defects in material and workmanship are. Choose Field Tan/Blaze Orange or Fog Grey/Tahoe Blue. The 20, 30, and 40-liter coolers, “built for the wild,” cost $300.00, $350.00, and $400.00, respectively. Check Amazon.com or outdoor retailers for sales or shop at yeti.com.

Pack it Up
Greenwater 65L Waterproof Deck Bag / $289.95 For boaters, especially Pacific Northwest sailboat racers in the fall, sometimes you just need to know your stuff is going to be dry on deck. The Greenwater 65L Waterproof Deck Bag from Mustang Survival is a 3,967-cubic-inch, completely watertight “drysuit in the form of a gear bag.” Touted as absolutely watertight, this bag is made with 420 denier Hypalon shell material (similar to inflatable dinghy fabric) and the same Aquaseal zipper used in Mustang’s dry suits. The bag is also loaded with carry handles integrated on all four sides as well as two on top. Also, built-in, tie-down loops are
sewn along the entire side of the bag. These loops make it easier to secure the bag somewhere on deck with a well-placed bowline. The removable and adjustable shoulder strap will be appreciated when the bag is full and heavy. The bag features a nononsense design with one large main compartment. Everything about the Greenwater 65L Waterproof Deck Bag is heavy duty and serious enough for rough waters and sideways rain. Even if the weather is fair, it’s nice to know whatever is in your bag is going to be drier than you are. The bag is currently $289.95 at fisheriessupply.com.

Most of us are familiar with ride-sharing apps like Uber and Lyft. Why not take that model to the sea? The GetMyBoat app seeks to do just that. The app taps into its reportedly 80,000-boat-strong pool spread across 171 countries. Boat owners working with the app can freely charge clients to rent out their boats with an easy-to-use interface. Reviews and ratings keep users in the know with regards to what renters are worth working with, and boat owners set their prices. The whole concept is quite interesting and, when working properly, helps boat owners alleviate some of the costs of ownership while providing the boatless an outlet for fun on the water.

Connect the Dots
Siren Marine MTC Boat Monitoring Systems It’s no secret that a lot of systems operate simultaneously on any given boat trip, and the mindful skipper has a lot on his or her mind when underway. The barrage of concerns includes vitals (like battery voltage level, bilge water, and engine metrics) to other necessities (like the temperature of the beer fridge). There’s more to worry about when a boat is in its slip, such as shore power input or security. It sure would be great if somebody made a system where one could check all this information, and even remotely resolve issues, with a glance and touch of a smartphone or tablet, right? Enter Siren Marine’s new MTC boat monitoring systems that are compact, simplified, and highly customizable electronic options to help boaters connect the many dots of boat operation and ownership. The basic premise of the MTC is that a central unit interacts with various wireless and wired sensors installed tactically throughout a vessel. The Siren Marine wireless sensors are compact units that are easy to install and readily relay shore power, bilge water
50 NORTHWEST YACHTING || NOVEMBER 2017
status, temperature, and motion (for security) data however the user desires. Other wired sensors already in place also are integrated into the MTC hub to provide information in conjunction with the wireless sensors. For example, it may make sense to use a wired sensor to the battery, but deploy a wireless security motion sensor off the transom. The wireless sensors have the nice bonus of not needing any drilling and may be good for hard-to-reach areas of the boat, but the internal battery does demand occasional recharging. The versatility of the system is quite n o ve l a n d a l l o w s boats from small sailboats and runabouts to motoryachts and cruising sailboats to employ the proper sensor arrangement for their particular layout. The sensors’ data is transmitted to the central device, which are then transmitted via cellular 3G global network directly to a smartphone or tablet. The Siren Marine App allows the user to remotely control many of the integrated systems as well as address alarms that may come up. The app also has many additional useful capabilities, including the GPS/Geo-Fence feature
that alerts the user if they stray outside of a set geo-located field (useful when on the hook). Additionally, if you are part of a rendezvous or want to keep tabs on the location of a fishing buddy, you can share your location and see the location of fellow app users on a digital chart. You can even display your sensor information with your fleet mates, which can either be fun (“Bob, I tripped your security sensor. Don’t come out swinging with the baseball bat.”) or lifesaving (“Bob, your batteries are dry and your bilge is filling up. You there?!”). Siren Marine’s new MTC boat monitoring systems are ever-evolving, with exciting new developments on the near horizon. Available now is the standard MTC version that features the capabilities previously mentioned. The MTC Pro is slated to come out in early 2018 and will feature video, satellite (vs. cellular) network, and NMEA 2000 compatibility. For now, you can pick up the available MTC system for a base price of $599. A subscription is required, and a monthly subscription to the standard MTC is $17.99 or $180 per year. You can learn more at sirenmarine.com.

Discovery in Fords Terror Fords Terror is a spectacular inlet in Endicott Arm some 60 miles southeast of Juneau, Alaska. The fjord itself is uncharted, and shallow reefs with a surging tidal current make the entrance difficult to navigate. Inside Fords Terror, it feels like you are in a different world. Here, the 87' classic charter yacht M/V Discovery is dwarfed by 1000' granite walls that rise vertically out of water colored green by glacial silt. The only sounds are of cascading waterfalls, the clicking of a camera, and an occasional "wow" from one of our guests. The sheer beauty and magnitude of this fjord are humbling. It makes you realize how small and insignificant we really are. Discovery was built in 1931 and has spent most of her life in the Pacific Northwest. From May to September each year, you can join the yacht on a week-long charter or mixed-group adventure cruise in Alaska. For the remainder of the year, Discovery is moored in Lake Union and available for private charters (for more information visit discoveryjourneys.com) in Seattle and the San Juan Islands. This month, we're giving away a Lake Union/Lake Washington experience aboard to the winner (and their friends) for the Northwest Yachting Year of Giving. See details on page 26.

Kevin’s Catch By Kevin Klein
Giving Thanks for local bounty! November might be a bit of a down time for fishing in the Northwest, but it’s a good time to give thanks for the opportunities we do have. Don’t winterize that fishing boat. There are still fish to be caught, especially in Puget Sound! November 1 marks the opener of blackmouth fishing in many areas of the Sound. The season’s festivities kick off with the Everett No Coho Blackmouth Derby on November 4 and 5. This event sprung from the original Everett Coho Derby, which held one of the largest participation records of any salmon tournament on the West Coast. After coho retention was shut down for the season in Puget Sound in 2016, the derby was moved to November and changed to target resident hatchery Chinook, or “blackmouth” as they are commonly known. The event, held at Bayside Marine in Everett, WA, was a success right out of the gate. Regulars at the top of derby leaderboards - the team of Derek Floyd, Lance Husby, and Scott Bumstead - put on a show, taking most of the top prizes. Seeing friends you know, meeting new people, and participating with them in healthy competition are some of the great aspects of Pacific Northwest fishing derbies. The drawing for the yearly Grand
Prize fishing boat for the Northwest Salmon Derby series also takes place at this event. Go to everettcohoderby.com for more info. We’ll be there! When it comes to blackmouth fishing in Puget Sound, tactics and terminal tackle are fairly simple. These 5- to 15lb salmon are on the feed, so finding the bait is key. Most hot spots will be on points, banks, and bars. Large, popular areas like Possession Bar usually hold fish. Smaller spots around points or ledges can be productive places to get out of the crowds and find salmon as well. A main baitfish in the diet of resident Chinook is sandlance or candlefish. These small, thin morsels are mainly found on the bottom. Whether downrigger trolling or jigging, most salmon will be found within 10 feet of a sandy floor. Don’t be afraid to bounce your downrigger balls in the mud, as we call it. To “match the hatch” of blackmouth prey, use lures such as Silver Horde Coho Killers or Ace Hi Flies when trolling. Tie these onto 36” to 48” of leader behind an 11” flasher and hang on. Feeder Chinook are voracious, and the bite can be fast and furious around tide changes. They are also very good on the BBQ or in the smoker, and provide a good change of pace around the holidays for dinner, dip, or gifts. You’re always a welcome guest at get-togethers when you bring the smoked blackmouth! Chum salmon may also be open to fishing in November in some Marine Areas of the Sound. As always, check the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife regulations and any emergency rule changes before you plan a trip. Fishing for squid can be a fun and productive pastime in Puget Sound this time of year as well. This is mainly a nighttime activity and can be done from public piers or by boat. Squid are attracted to light, so any place with existing lighting or creating your own bright spot with spotlights or underwater lighting can be effective. Boating at night near piers or ports that provide nocturnal illumination has inherent dangers so, as always, make safety a top priority. Squid jigs are available at most tackle stores in the region and are easy to use. When you’re in your local store picking up gear, also ask them for tips and tricks on how to catch these critters. As a simple primer, cast out to the edge of Continued on Page 86

On Watch By Peter Schrappen
When it comes to the No Discharge Zone, Serenity Now! Given that the last two columns of On Watch have covered what I would call “new puppies,” I want to revisit an old dog with the No Discharge Zone (NDZ) topic. Yes, I’ve not shied away from writing about this issue in the past, but one of my pet peeves with the media is the unwillingness to stay with one issue from start to finish. Maybe it’s the recency bias that so many of us fall victim to. For more on recency bias and how humans trip themselves up, check out Michael Lewis’ latest book The Undoing Project. He’s a writing wizard and this book does not disappoint. Okay, enough social science and book talk. What I want to do here is give you a just-the-facts outline of where things stand with the (in)famous NDZ. This issue is important to maritime organizations (American Waterways Operators, Northwest Marine Trade Association, and the Recreational Boating Association), and it’s important to me because I’ve witnessed firsthand just what a disappointing process the state has deployed to get us to where we are today. You may remember that this zone would outlaw any marine sanitation devices within the Sound and allow law enforcement that much more opportunity to board boats to check heads. So where are we and how did we get here? 2012 – The Washington Department of Ecology (Ecology) announces it is exploring the establishment of a Puget Soundwide NDZ. The idea of exploring a NDZ had been listed as one potential action in a Puget Sound Partnership (PSP) Action Agenda compiled by PSP. On its website, Ecology describes a detailed four-year process of investigating the NDZ petition idea, and provides a link to 2013 notes from an advisory committee process. Sidenote: I believe I was a member of this advisory committee process. And if it’s the same committee I’m thinking of, these two pro forma meetings involved some sticky dots (“Hey, what do you all think of a No Discharge Zone?”) and some seriously good donuts. It was hard to keep the sugar off the sticky dots, but we all have crosses to bear. Feb. 9, 2014 – Ecology puts out notice seeking public comment on a Draft Petition to establish a Puget Sound-wide NDZ. Ecology receives about 26,000 comments. About 24,000 are form-letter postcards in support of a Puget Sound-wide NDZ. July 21, 2016 – Ecology files with U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) a petition seeking to establish Puget Sound as an NDZ. Of the 92 NDZs already in place, this would be the nation’s largest. Feb. 13, 2017 – A Notice of Determination of Pump-Out Sufficiency to accommodate an NDZ petition is published in the Federal Register. Keep in mind, there is only one pumpout in the north Sound. March 1, 2017 – The Marine Alliance (an organically formed coalition consisting of the above maritime groups and the Cruise
56 NORTHWEST YACHTING || NOVEMBER 2017
Line Industry Association) files a request for reconsideration of the sufficiency determination with the recently appointed U.S. EPA Director Scott Pruitt. This came after the Marine Alliance explored with the EPA whether the actions of the prior EPA Regional Administrator violated the midnight rule laws that require a freeze on new rule-makings in the final hours of a transition from a prior Administration to a new one. July 5, 2017 – Ecology publishes a notice of its intention to start a draft rule-making process related to NDZ. Late Summer 2017 (approximately August 2017) - U.S. EPA informs the Marine Alliance that while it shares some of the concerns regarding the pump-out sufficiency determination, it will decline to file a formal order of reconsideration. So now we find ourselves in a holding pattern. A week doesn’t go by without someone asking me, “What’s the latest with the NDZ?” (maybe it’s because I’m wearing my “Ask me about the NDZ status” t-shirt). Regardless, as Will Rodgers quipped, “I hate predictions, especially ones about the future.” That said, I would fall over if Ecology would pump the brakes on a Puget Sound-wide NDZ, and I haven’t seen anything from the Trump EPA indicating a change of course, either.
So now we find ourselves in a holding pattern. A week doesn’t go by without someone asking me, ‘What’s the latest with the NDZ?’ Yes, there is a legal challenge in play and that case will be heard on October 27, 2017. Our group is both focused on that avenue as well as a belief that good does win out (i.e., that a compromise is possible on this subject). Are there more important issues out there for the boating industry and boaters? Yes! Have you heard about the changes to the electrical code and the copper-bottom paint law? In the meantime, and until you hear otherwise, nothing has changed with boating. So, get your boat out there, pump out your boat, and stay tuned for any further developments. (Author’s note: After this column was written, Ecology sent out a notice that they are accepting comments on the Puget Sound-wide No Discharge Zone until November 30, 2018.) Peter Schrappen is the NMTA’s Government Affairs Director and the Clean Boating Foundation’s Executive Director. Additionally, he serves on boards of the Boating Safety Advisory Council, the Washington Boating Alliance, and the U.S. Superyacht Association.

Galley Gourmet By Bridget Charters
Embrace the Fall, a Delicious Harvest Dinner We of the Pacific Northwest love the seasons, and fall is yet another amazing time of year with cool nights and periodic sunny days, fall leaves, pumpkins and squash, mushrooms, beautiful kales, new crops of potatoes, the last of the green beans, the final tomatoes on the vine, and grapes ready for harvest. You may still be out enjoying time on the water, and if you are travelling around Puget Sound, there is harvesting and foraging to be done and farmers markets to enjoy with a plethora of options for a great fall dinner. My fall favorites are the amazing squash, local grapes, and foraged mushrooms. Find those three and you can build a beautiful fall dinner. Chanterelles can be found in fields and lowlands around the Sound but are also plentiful at the grocery stores and markets. If you have a friend who enjoys mushrooming, tag along on one of their excursions to pick some for a dinner. Squash grows well in the Northwest and stores well, so buy many and store for the winter. Squash will hold for three to four months in a cool, dark storage location. There are many varietals of kale and many are used as ornamentals in gardens. Fall is not the “end” of summer, but another season with many great foods and flavors. I love fall dinners, and it is easy to put a meal together using the aforementioned ingredients.
We have been grilling salmon and steak all summer, so I love a nice pork roast in the fall. Plus, pork goes nicely with herbs, mushrooms, squash, and kale. I rub a pork loin roast down with minced rosemary and wrap up in slices of pancetta. It is quick and easy to put together and takes about thirty minutes to roast. Finally, the warm temperatures have cooled outside and it is reasonable to turn the oven on, so roasting it is for the potatoes and squash! Both squash and potatoes can be eaten with their skin, especially the thin-skinned varieties of squash, like delicata or acorn. Squash and potatoes are great roasted and make for a quick and easy preparation. For dessert, I learned how to make a beautiful focaccia while in Italy. My favorite recipe is topped with grapes, walnuts, and sugar. Take your inspiration from the seasons! Get outside, forage mushrooms, harvest apples, pick the last of the seasons herbs, and make a trip to your local farmers market for delicious components for dinner. All of these dishes can be done in advance and held at room temperature, except the pork (do that last). Toss the salad and dinner is ready to go. Enjoy!

4-6 cloves garlic, minced 16 slices Pancetta, 1/8 -inch thick 2 tablespoons butter 1 cup extra virgin olive oil
Rub the pork roast with olive oil, salt, and fresh cracked pepper. Set aside. Blend the herbs and garlic, then rub mix all over the pork. Lay out the pancetta on a flat surface, lining slices side by side to create a rectangular surface for the pork roast. Lay the pork in the center, and wrap the pancetta around the pork, pulling snug. Truss the roast, and lace the pancetta ends under the string. Drizzle with olive oil and place the remaining oil and butter in a roasting pan. Add the roast and cook in a preheated 425-degree oven for 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to 375 degrees and cook another 10 minutes, or until the roast is 150 degrees internal temperature.
Schiacciata con L’uva 1 bunch dark globe grapes, with seeds 1 sprig rosemary, chopped (about 2 tablespoons) 1 cup walnuts, rough chopped
Extra virgin olive oil 1 cup sugar 1 recipe basic focaccia dough:
Focaccia Starter Dough (Biga): 6 oz. water (110F degrees), .6 oz. yeast, 8 oz. bread flour Add yeast to mixing bowl with water, let soften. Add the flour, whisk in and transfer to a container with lid. Store for 24 hours at room temp.
Finished Dough: 14 oz. water (110F degrees), .6 oz. yeast, 1 lb. and 4 ounces bread flour, .5 oz. salt, 1 oz. extra virgin olive oil, Biga (made the day before) Start another batch of dough with yeast and water, then add 1/2 the flour, the biga (type of pre-fermentation used in Italian baking), and the remaining flour. Add the oil and salt, then work into smooth dough with your hands or in the bowl of a stand mixer. Once the dough is smooth and has been kneaded for 10 minutes, place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover with plastic, and allow to rise in a warm location for 30-40 minutes. Press the proofed dough into the oiled pan. Press the walnuts into the dough, sprinkle with rosemary, and press the grapes into the surface. Cover and allow to proof (covered) for about 30 minutes, or until puffy. Once proofed, drizzle with olive oil and top with the sugar. Bake at 375 degrees for about 45 minutes to an hour.
Roasted Delicata Squash with Sage Browned Butter 3 delicata squash Olive oil Salt and pepper 8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper 1/ cup chopped sage leaves 2 Lemon, cut into wedges
Keeping skin on, cut squash into half lengthwise. Slice into half-moons about 1/8 inch thick. Toss with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast in oven at 400 degrees until tender and lightly browned. Melt the butter in a very large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Allow the butter to bubble and turn golden brown with a toasted fragrance. Watch carefully-this will only take a few minutes. Add the sage and check seasoning with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat. Pile squash on a platter, drizzle with brown butter, and garnish with lemon wedges to squeeze over.
Roasted Potatoes Italian style Russet or large Yukon potatoes, peeled and cut into 1” pieces Extra virgin olive oil Kosher salt In a large pot of rapidly boiling water, add salt to taste (about half cup) and add the potatoes (in batches if necessary). Cook the potatoes two minutes then remove from the water with a skimmer and place on a dry cookie sheet. Allow to air dry, do not overcrowd. Once the potatoes are dry, make sure the cookie sheet is dry and liberally coat the potatoes with olive oil. Season liberally with salt and bake at 425 degrees. Cook until a beautiful golden brown. Serve immediately, add more salt if necessary.

Idaho is more than the land of potatoes. For Pacific Northwest boaters, it’s a paradise of waterways. By Norris COMER
When one thinks of Pacific Northwest boating, images of the green and gold hills of the San Juan Islands or a Mt. Rainier backdrop tend to prevail. However, east of the Cascades lies the waterways of Idaho’s panhandle, a series of lakes and rivers carved out of the rugged landscape teaming with boating promise. Lakes, among the largest in the contiguous United States, are central to the Idaho boating experience. Lake Coeur d’Alene may be the most well-known thanks to the city of Coeur d’Alene and the accompanying resorts, golf courses, and thriving tourism trade. To the north, the state’s largest lake, Lake Pend Oreille (pronounced pond oh-RAY), is less developed, with much of the shoreline protected under the auspices of the Coeur d’Alene National Forest. Priest Lake, which teases our border with Canada, is another boating destination that inevitably comes up during a chat with a knowledgeable local. But Idaho is not just a pretty face. Some of the nation’s best boat builders and most successful boating businesses are thriving in Idaho, and a boating culture all its own has emerged. Iconic custom wood builds from Idaho manufacturers like Coeur d’Alene Custom Wood Boats,
W
owned by the Hagadone Marine Group, and Stancraft, based in Hayden, Idaho, are defining what it means to boat the Idaho way. Gem State at a Glance The history of boating in Idaho dates back to prehistory as Native Americans migrated to North America during the wane of the last great Ice Age. Over the millennia, tribes began to form; Kootenai, Kalispel, Coeur d’Alene, Palouse, Nez Perce, Shoshone-Bannock, and Northern Paiute. These tribes commonly used canoes to traverse rivers like the Columbia or Snake and supplement their diets fishing the salmon runs, which were considerable before being depleted in modern times. With the pioneer settling of the West, towns like Coeur d’Alene began to form. Coeur d’Alene was founded in 1878 and became a magnet for silver miners. The boom helped transform the area into a bustling economy, and an era of steamships dominated the region from the 1880s to the 1930s. It is widely believed that more steamboats operated on Lake Coeur d’Alene during this time than on any other lake west of the Great Lakes. The colorful steamboat culture is full of fascinating stories, such as the rivalry
The Cedars Floating Restaurant is buoyed by 600,000 lbs. of styrofoam-encased concrete at the confluence of Lake Coeur d’Alene and the Spokane River. Slips at the floating dock for visiting boaters and a ramp to Blackwell Island are frequently used by hungry guests.

between the two steamboats Idaho and Boneta. The rivalry ended when the Idaho rammed the Boneta “in an accident” and sank her. Ultimately, the advance of the railroads ended the era of the Idaho steamship. At least five steamboats were deliberately sunk off Stevens Point in Lake Coeur d’Alene, the last of the fleet. The area is known locally as the Steamboat Graveyard. The rusty remains of old boilers and the like from steamboats can still be found if one knows where to look. The Idaho boat culture we know today retains much of the classic look from the 1930s and 40s, but with a modern flair. A visit to the annual Coeur d’Alene Classic Boat Show, held in late August, will give the curious a glimpse of Idaho’s finest. However, my takeaway from a factory visit with Jim Brown, the head of the wood shop of Coeur d’Alene Custom Wood Boats, is not that Idaho builders are trying to recapture the magic of the past. Today’s wood boats emphasize the modern with cutting edge and novel build methods. In short, these ain’t your grandad’s Chris Crafts. Proudly Idaho Built Jim Brown shakes my hand. It’s a chilly fall day in Coeur d’Alene and we promptly make our way to the warmth of the office of Coeur d’Alene Custom Wood Boats. Pictures of the company’s prize builds cover the wall, and a vintage wood, fourcylinder hydroplane sits in the middle of the reception area like a museum piece. The hydroplane belonged to local Jim McGoldrick, who raced it extensively back in the day. “This hydroplane hasn’t been out on the water in years,” says Brown fondly. “She’s just something to drool over. I have huge respect for the boat builders of the past. They were skilled craftsmen.” We don’t take long to start talking shop. “We (the Resort Boat Shop owned by the Hagadone Marine Group) are pretty

much a full-service marina. We do everything from new boat sales through service, storage, and, of course, the best part of it, the custom wooden boats.” The Hagadone Marine Group is a boating industry giant of the area and regularly places as a top boat dealer of the country. But as far as Jim Brown is concerned, the stars of the show are the custom wood boats. “I’m sure I’m a little biased,” Brown chuckles. “This journey Coeur d’Alene Custom Wood Boats is on right now started around 2001. Ownership of the boat shop, this facility, was sold to Hagadone Marine Group. All the employees stayed, including me. That’s where we started off as the Hagadone Resort Boat Shop, and we started to develop a line of wood boats. We started calling our boats Custom Wood Boats.” The goal was to blend the vintage appeal of wood with modern, never attempted building techniques. “The goal is to make wood boats that require less maintenance and provide
more longevity. With traditional wooden boat building, each hull frame is going to have a joint that is a point of weakness,” says Brown. For example, the sheer of a boat hull travels down to the chine where there’s a joint. In Custom’s cold molds, they eliminated all those joints. They use a laminated bent-horseshoe frame from shear to shear, no joints involved. “There are other places where we’ve added wood to create a sharper corner because you can’t create that by bending wood. There’s no screws, no joints, no surface plugs, no nothing. On traditional wood boats, it’s not a matter of if a plug is going to be a trouble area, it’s when,” says Brown. This process is much more labor intensive and time consuming, but the results are boats that last longer and require just a basic spar varnish for maintenance. “Our boats should outlive the old ones by many times. They should be around four or five generations or more, instead of Continued on Page 64

three. The trick is to not abuse the wood. Get the boat out of the sun, and use the varnish like how we use sunscreen. We don’t want to do more maintenance than we have to. We don’t want to sand down the boat, because ultimately that means less boat,” says Brown. Custom Wood Boats is a small builder with a typical year yielding one or two builds. The goal is not to create a production line, but stay true to the company’s “custom” namesake. “We don’t want to build the same boat over and over again,” says Brown. “But these boats are meant to be taken out and used. These boats have lots of horsepower and the handling is amazing. One of our 27’ designs has a 5.5 Mercury racing engine with dual external hydraulic steering. Very light touch. That boat, you can take it out and throttle it up, cut real hard, and it’ll bank and cut like a good skier. It’s meant to run, play!” Brown and his team’s talents were eventually put to the test by none other
hull designed by English naval architect Tony Castro. Sizzler was designed to be the ultimate daysailor, complete with a large entertainment cockpit and no overnight accommodations below. Built with a lifting bulb keel (from 11’ to 7’), dual helms, and rigging for a large jibe and Code 0 spinnaker, Sizzler also is equipped with hydraulic winches and below-deck line management systems to make single handing easy. Her cold-molded hull features four layers of wood and is an inch and a quarter thick. “She is a really fun ride with a great big cockpit and a lot of sail area for our lighter winds,” says Brown. Although the end result is stunning, the process of making Sizzler is a saga of rolled-up sleeves and blazed trails. “The owner’s vision gave us plenty of challenges,” says Brown. “For example, he wanted to see the lights and darks of the wood of the hull and not have it painted over. We wanted to use a translucent fin-

The entire shop was converted to accommodate the building of the all-wood

ish, but nobody thought it could be done. We couldn’t get a contract from anybody, so we did just did it ourselves. She just glows.” Brown’s team also plumbed all the components themselves, both with wood and high-gloss carbon fiber.
The team launched Sizzler in 2007. Flash forward 10 years to my visit, and Sizzler is on the hard for her seasonal winterization at the newly opened Hagadone property on Blackwell Island. Brown offers to give me the tour, and I eagerly follow him in my car. The property, opened in the spring of 2017, is an expansion for the company that includes a full-service yard, marina, brokerage, and new shop for Custom. Brown and his co-workers will be moving to the new facility soon, and they’ve already begun packing up the old location. Sizzler’s mast is easy to spot and Brown punches the access code at the entrance gate. We ascend a flight of scaffolding stairs and then we’re in the expansive cockpit. The topside is completely clear of rigging thanks to the custom belowdeck line management system, and a walk across the gorgeous deck is surreal for me, a sailor used to an obstacle course of blocks, lines, and stays. Below, the interior is all about function, with a small galley and modest enclosed head. The forward area houses hydraulic machinery instead of a berth. Every square inch is customized, from the carbon fiber head to the aluminum and carbon fiber detailing. “She’s just phenomenal,” Brown half whispers as we descend from the boat and I have to agree. We part ways and I take a stroll past the dozens, if not hundreds, of boats floating idly in their slips. Offshore, I see sailboats and power boats enjoying the clear fall day, free of the summertime tourist crowds. Just another day boating the Idaho way.

I’m often asked, “How can I learn to fish around here? I’ve gone out a few times but haven’t caught anything.” My response is usually the same: Read as much as you can about how to fish an area, befriend the sharpies at the local tackle shop, and ask politely for basic info. Then get out there and do it! 66 NORTHWEST YACHTING || NOVEMBER 2017
There is no substitute for time on the water. However, I usually end with this advice: The best way to flatten your learning curve is to hire a charter. I’d like to offer some tips on finding a good guide, being a good client, and having a great experience while making lasting memories and gaining knowledge. Going on a charter can get folks hooked on fishing…and that is a good thing! Finding the best charter for the area and specific quarry you wish to pursue is now much easier with the advent of the internet. An online search for charters in the area you want to fish will pull up a plethora of information. Check out the charter’s website and see if their company meets the necessary requirements. There may be no permitting or licensing needed in rivers, but there almost always will be in the salt. Make sure the operation looks legit and has the official accreditations. Online reviews can be a good source of information. If the charter has mostly positive reviews, it’s a good sign. A couple bad reviews can be taken with a grain of salt. There’s at least one in every crowd, right? If you’re a social media user, look at the Facebook page for the business. Lots of smiling faces of happy clients? Lots of friends including past customers and other guides? It probably means they are doing something right and have been for awhile. Have they been in business for a few years? That’s a good sign. There are some good new guides out there with fresh attitudes and enthusiasm; however, longevity

means consistent success. Pick up one of the regional magazines as well and peruse the charter advertisements. Don’t discount good old word of mouth and ask around. If you’re already in the area you want to fish, stop by and talk to the locals on the docks or at the tackle shops. Call around a bit and look for recommendations. Other businesses won’t refer a guide for long if clients are coming back from the trip disgruntled. Also, just ask your friends, family, and co-workers. Put out the call. Has anyone had a fun, guided fishing trip? You’ll be surprised how many folks want to share their fish stories. This piece of advice when choosing a charter is as important as any: What does the vessel look like that you’re going to fish on? Is it of the size and seaworthiness needed to safely fish in the area you wish?
Is it in good condition? A new boat doesn’t always mean the best boat, but it should be in good repair. Is the boat clean and well maintained? No stories of multiple break downs? Probably a good thing. If you’re looking at pictures, do your best to judge if it looks like a vessel you would want to spend the day on if conditions turn rough. And maybe the most important for some customers—does it have a comfortable private head? Some fisher persons don’t mind roughing it, but some like creature comforts. Once you’ve chosen a charter, you can help ensure the trip goes well with a little planning and effort. While you may not be the captain on a charter excursion, there are still some things under your control. Being a good client will lead to a good experience. If you’re the one who has booked the charter, take the point with
When on the charter, the captain is in charge. Even if you have some knowledge of the fishery, be humble and listen. Always pay attention to what he or she is telling you.

your party and communicate with all members on what will be expected. As the saying goes, half of success is just showing up. If you’ve got a charter lined up, show up! “No Shows” are more common than you’d think in the guide business. Clients not showing without notification is a direct drain on the business model. With notice, well in advance if you have to cancel, a charter can try to book another trip on that day. Without it, they can’t. Also, be prompt. The trip may be planned around an early bite or tide. Make sure to have your belongings organized and double check for everything you’re supposed to bring before you get to the boat. However, make sure and leave the bananas at home, and bring something else for a snack. Fisherman are a superstitious lot and bringing bananas on a boat is an old, bad luck omen. It’s funny but may actually upset your guide. I’ve heard comical stories of a bad day of fishing explained by a client pulling a banana out from their pack at the end of the day. Don’t forget your fishing license! The current and correct one. Sometimes charters will take care of the licenses for you, but do your due diligence. When on the charter, the captain is in charge. Even if you have some knowledge of the fishery, be humble and listen. Always pay attention to what he or she is telling you. If you’ve hired a good guide, chances are they’ve been on that body of water almost every day. Be aware of your surroundings and try to keep your bearings. Be cognizant of the boat and its systems. You’re now somewhat in training to be the captain. Keep that in mind, but also keep out of the way when applicable. The captain and deckhand(s) may need room to operate. Ask questions when the time is right and there’s a break in the action. Pay attention to the gear you are using and try to focus. Tangles and missteps will happen, but mitigating confusion and downtime will lead to a more successful trip. Take mental notes on exactly what is happening. Ask the guide if he minds you taking pictures of the gear for future reference. You should already have that phone or camera with you to record that awesome catch you’re going to have. If your charter captain says the trip should be cancelled due to weather, trust that they are making the right decision. Don’t complain, because it’s very likely you wouldn’t want to be out there anyway. The captain and crew want to go as bad as you do. If they don’t fish, they don’t get paid.
The same logic goes for river fishing. If the guide says the river is unfishable, or the fish just aren’t in yet, believe it. Being a guide is a great job when A) the weather and conditions are good; B) the fish are present and cooperating; and C) the clients are reasonable in their expectations and pleasant. Subtract any one of those ingredients from the equation and the trip can become a grind for everyone. It may be best to go another day. Six-pack charters are probably the best way to gain on-the-water experience and knowledge before you pilot your first trip to the ocean or big river. Six-pack means up to six clients as regulated by permit or license. You can really get a good feel for what you should be doing as a captain on a boat of this size, these vessels are usually 23-33 ft. in length. It’s an intimate experience with somewhat close quarters. You may be able and even asked to run gear such as downriggers. Take this opportunity to learn not just the “what” and “where” of fishing, but the “why.” A good captain will take the time and enjoy telling you why they are using a certain method, why they are fishing in a certain spot, and what it takes to be successful. Boats in this class are usually faster than the larger charters. They can often get you out to the fish and get you back in express fashion. Larger charter boats with multiple parties have some advantages. Size means you may be able to fish in heavier weather than smaller vessels. You may have more room to stretch out and rest on long runs to the fishing grounds. Also, you’ll never plug the hold with fish on the big boats. Overnight trips for tuna are also possible on the 50-footers. These larger charters with more clients are generally less expensive per person. They can be a lot of fun, but may not represent the most efficient learning experience if that is what you’re after. Another type of charter is the destination lodge experience in B.C. or Alaska. While you may not fish these areas more
Getting good friends out on the water together is the most fun part of a fishing charter, as you can see by the smiles on these three amigos.

than once or twice a year, you’re still gaining knowledge. Use what you gleaned from this northern adventure to put some tricks up your sleeve locally. Plus, if you do come back to the same lodge, you’ll be one of the insiders who knows how to fish the area. The accommodations, service, and food can be extraordinary. You’ll pay a bit more for this experience. From the smaller, less expensive lodges of Vancouver Island to the large, helicopter-served awesomeness of the northern locales, there’s an experience for everyone. You’ll also meet people from all over. These are the trips that you’ll be talking about for a lifetime. Going on a guided river trip provides a fun change of pace, whether it’s on the Columbia River on a 26' sled or drifting down a stream in a 16' drift boat. There are also some good opportunities to fish on the beautiful lakes of the Pacific Northwest with a guide. These freshwater trips are often some of the most relaxing and fun—reeling in nice fish without big-water pressures. Remember to tip your captain and deckhand if the trip has been satisfactory. No, that doesn’t mean to tip only if you catch something. Most likely they have done everything possible to catch fish. They want to be successful too because more fish equals more tips.
Customary tips range from 10-20% of the price of charter for the day. For most trips, $50-$200 is good. If on a six-pack charter, a good rule of thumb is for each customer to throw in $20 for the daily tip and if there’s a deckhand, tip him or her something as well. Go with your gut. If it’s been an amazing, huge, spectacular, beautiful trip… tip big! The flip side is that rare occurrence of a bad charter or unprofessional operation. If you experience something that just feels wrong, don’t worry about the tip. A bad experience may warrant a bad review online. However, poor reviews carry a lot of weight. Use that power wisely and responsibly. If the guide is doing something unsafe or illegal, you may want to let someone know beyond a bad review. Something of this magnitude will probably never happen, but you never know. Use your own discretion and ask around regarding protocol if you’re concerned before taking action. The charter captain or guide can be a valuable teacher during your excursion and a good source of information for the future. The guided trip should be a special and informative experience that you’ll remember forever. Relax and have fun—that’s what you’re paying for after all. Just remember, no bananas!

Death of THE
Hero
The amazing tale of how a famous Antarctic ship met its end on Willapa Bay By Peter Marsh
Fifty years ago, the 125' long by 30’ wide expedition ship Hero was taking shape at the Harvey Gamage Boatyard in Maine. Designed by Boston, Mass. naval architects Potter & McArthur, Inc. and based on a traditional fishing trawler, it was the last wooden vessel built in the U.S. for polar service— specifically to supply the Palmer Station

in Antarctica. By 1984, the 300-ton vessel was worn out by 17 grueling voyages south and was also completely outdated. It was decommissioned and put up for auction. The Hero's survival depended on the next owner. At a minimum, it needed to be someone with a knowledge of wooden boats and a solid business plan—or a million dollars to spend. Unfortunately, the
and architects while the Hero sat at the dock in the Oregon rain and did what all wooden boats do—rot. After a decade, the money and enthusiasm ran out, and in 1998, the boat was sold for a song. The “lucky” owner was an experienced seaman who managed to keep the ship afloat and operational in Newport for the next 10 years. I remember finding Hero at the fish dock and wondering how on earth it had arrived there during this time. He tried various strategies like short cruises and a bed and breakfast, but a vessel of this size runs up a sizable bill just sitting at the dock. About 24 years after its last expedition, the Hero changed hands for the last time and was towed to its final home on a private dock in Bay Center on Willapa Bay on the south Washington coast. It might have been better for all concerned if it had sunk offshore—a common occurrence—but it

arrived safely and sat at its berth on the Palix River for the next nine years.
The Last STAnd The new owner was a man with native American heritage named Sun Feather Lightdancer. He too appeared to be another dreamer with no clear plan or funding. By 2012, he was reported to have removed all the marketable items from the bridge while seemingly unaware of the risk that he was taking by keeping the now-derelict boat smack in the middle of
the biggest oyster-growing area on the West Coast. Needless to say, the oyster growers were not impressed by the new arrival and viewed it with suspicion from the start. “Oyster boats passed it every day on their way to the Goose Point plant nearby. Their remote setting facility is just downstream and they have a significant number of beds in the Bay Center area,” Brian Kingzett, senior biologist of the Goose Point Shellfish Farm and Oystery, told me. Having the boat sink at dock was their worst fear realized. All the growers' protests went
unheeded until 2015, when they convinced the authorities to inspect the boat's hold and a small quantity of oil was removed. But no further action could be taken. Unfortunately, the threat of pollution isn't enough of a legal cause for the U.S. Coast Guard to act, and the Hero was not even added to the state program’s list of “Vessels of Concern” in 2015 because there was no sign of an oil sheen. But this slow-motion disaster inexorably reached its conclusion in March 2017, when the Hero slipped below the muddy water of
Ambitious 1980s plans for the Oregon Coast Antarctic Exploratorium might have resulted in a unique experience for visitors, but lacking funding, the half themepark/half science-center never materialized. Subsequent owners also lacked the funds to fulfill their various visions for the vessel.

the Palix River, ending its career “not with a bang, but a whimper.” The U.S. Coast Guard opened the Oil Spill Liability Trust Fund for $25,000 to minimize pollution potential, and the Washington Department of Ecology (Ecology) immediately sprang into action. Ecology contracted with Global Diving & Salvage of Seattle to clean up the spill. Workers recovered more than 1,000 gallons of oily water and 60 to 70 gallons of diesel fuel and oil. The oyster beds managed to avoid a more serious shutdown. But a closer look at the hull at low tide revealed an unexpected aspect of the problem: the heavy hull was in a very fragile state and would probably not withstand the strain of being re-floated and temporarily patched. The float-and-patch method would have enabled a tug to tow it slowly to nearby Raymond, Washington, where it could be hauled out or cut up on a ramp. As it stands today, the Hero is too far from the shore, too heavy, and too far gone for a mobile crane to lift it out. In any case, there is no money available to clean up the wreck, so it could be around for a considerable time. This sad situation joins a depressing list of derelict sinkings in the Pacific Northwest, all of which could have been avoided by government intervention before it was too late. However, this is not the way the law works. Troy Wood, derelict vessel removal program manager for the state Department of Natural Resources, explained this quandary very succinctly: “It was reported to us that it was ugly-looking, but it’s not against the law to be ugly,” he said. Ironically, this entire dismal saga has been regularly followed by a group of Palmer Station veterans who have annual meetings and an online newsletter. It's easy to understand the sadness and regret they feel at their failure to bring the boat back to Maine, where there is a fleet of wooden charter schooners and several traditional yards capable of maintaining them. The old Hero might have enjoyed a new lease on life and even earned its keep carrying passengers around Penobscot Bay. The Antarctic icebreaker Glacier also had a strong support from former crew and efforts to save it continued into 2012 even as it was towed to the breakers' yard in Brownsville, Texas.

Building the Hero H a rv e y Ga m ag e S h i pya r d : E stA b l i S h e d 1 9 24 From 1924 to 1976, Harvey Gamage personally oversaw the construction of more than 288 vessels—sailboats, powerboats, draggers, scallopers, and windjammers, as well as schooners designed by the well-known naval architect John Alden. Powerboats and small fishing and lobster boats became more common in the 1930s and 1940s. The construction of eight wooden military vessels occupied the Gamage yard from 1940 to 1944. In 1944, the business turned to building rugged, able, and profitable wooden fishing boats. A total of 93 boats were launched between 1944 and 1969, averaging about four boats a year. These heavily-framed, diesel-powered boats ranged from 70’ to 112’ in length, and formed the backbone of the Gloucester and New Bedford, Massachusetts, fishing fleets. In 1959, Captain Havilah Hawkins asked Gamage to build the first schooner designed specifically for the windjammer passenger trade. The result was the 83-foot Mary Day, launched in 1960. From that date until 1976, when Harvey died, the shipyard’s output was 43 vessels—a mixture of draggers, research vessels, yachts, and large schooners. In addition to the schooners, the Clearwater slid down the Gamage ways immediately after Hero. This sloop was a historic replica modeled after the Dutch vessels that sailed the Hudson River in the 18th and 19th centuries. It became the flagship for the restoration of the Hudson River with the support of folk singer Pete Seeger. As a reminder of the long-term costs of maintaining a big wooden vessel, the Clearwater underwent a complete structural restoration recently that cost close to $1 million. These traditional designs were followed in 1970 by the yard’s first steel-hulled fishing vessel—another sign that the Hero was really the end of the line for Maine's long history of commercial wooden vessels.
The schooner Clearwater was the next vessel built by Gamage after the Hero. Built to evoke the 19th century vessels that plied New York's Hudson River from the 17th to the late 19th centuries, it serves both a historic and environmental mission, being a symbolic catalyst in the 1970s for cleaning up the Hudson.

The masts and booms were Oregon fir, and the ketch rig, with about 1,700 square feet of sail, was often used to steady the motion and allowed the crew to do some sampling and research in silence. The sailing rig also acted as a back-up to the engines. The twin 368-hp main diesel engines drove a single propeller shaft, giving a cruising speed of 10 knots, while a massive 75 tons (2,400 gallons) of fuel allowed a range of up to 6,000 miles. With redundant double boilers and circulating pumps for standby heating, two gen-sets, plus a spare shaft and propeller, it was well prepared for all the hazards it might encounter.

Rain begins to fall from gray Alaskan skies. The brisk October weather on Behm Canal does not make for an easy day out on the water. “It’s time for another CTD cast!” I yell to the coxswain from where I sit in the warm cabin of the survey boat. Three computer screens displaying hydrographic data glare back at me. Racing the sunsets of ever-shortening days, we make the most of our eight-hour workdays, surveying continuously only to transit to the next survey area or take another water column profile to apply to the data later. Collecting hydrographic data is tiring; the days long, the seasons longer, and the amount of data to collect never-ending. The two years I spent collecting hydrographic data around the coastline of Alaska for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) as a NOAA Corps Officer were the most challenging yet rewarding of my professional life. As I learned where the roots of hydrography have come from, it amazes me the accuracy the early hydrographers had with even less technology. Yet, in a world of electronic advancement, the day inevitably approaches when we will see the last paper chart printed and the maritime industry relying on electronic charts.
I
American Charting Charting and hydrographic surveying have been practiced in the United States since the early 1800s when the Coast Survey conducted its first hydrographic survey and published the nation’s first chart in 1834. The roots of hydrographic surveying began when then President Thomas Jefferson and Congress authorized a “survey to be taken of the United States.” This initiative brought together mathematicians, cartographers, geodesists, meteorologists, hydrographers, and sailors to charts the waters around the United States. These first surveys were conducted with lead lines, i.e., rope or line with incremented measurements and lead weights attached to the end that were manually lowered and raised to measure the depth of the seafloor.
Imagine standing by the side of a boat to lower and raise a lead line in all types of weather while determining the position of that depth sounding with three sextant fixes referenced to points on a map. While the individual depth sounding may have been accurate, they were few and far between. By the nature of the surveying technique, rock pinnacles and other sharp contrasts within the seafloor were missed, giving the sailor of yore an inaccurate overall picture of what lay under their vessel. By the early 1900s another surveying technique was introduced called the wire drag. These surveys were conducted with two vessels and a wire dragged between them, giving the hydrographers the depth and location of an obstruction. Although this method was a little more accurate and allowed the surveyors to cover more ground, it was easy to miss features and record inaccurate depths. Also, having a wire between two moving vessels created another danger, as it is not the most ideal setup for seagoing vessels to be attached to each other on the water. By the 1930s, single beam sonars were put into practice and greatly improved surveying techniques. Single beam sonars use sound waves to help determine the depth of the sea floor directly below a vessel. Although this was an important breakthrough for hydrography, single beam sonars still
left areas of un-surveyed ground. The survey vessel would run a series of track lines with set line spacing between them. This allowed the scientists to cover more seafloor and collect more data points in less time. However, the seafloor between the survey track lines could still have rock pinnacles and other obstructions that were missed due to the nature of this survey technique. From the 1950s through the 1970s, several scientific advancements aided in improving survey quality and changed the way surveyors looked at the seafloor. Side scan sonars were introduced, which allowed the surveyor to get a more complete picture of the sea floor, greatly improving the identification and accuracy of underwater rocks, submerged wrecks, and other obstructions. Multibeam sonars were introduced as well. These systems allow the surveyor to obtain water depth information for 100 percent of the survey area.
21st Century ChartMaking Today, the majority of charts are created with data from multibeam sonars. Although this is the current practice for hydrographic surveys nowadays, it is just as important to check the source diagram of the paper charts sitting in your pilothouse to determine the accuracy of your own charts. This diagram will tell you what kind of survey and what years the survey was conducted to give

you a better idea of how to navigate the waterway. One area of the chart may have been surveyed with multibeam, while another part may have used single beam. Especially in areas a sailor is unfamiliar with, using more caution with older types of sonar technology could go a long way. Moreover, it is imperative to realize that a storm may have come through since the last survey and changed the seafloor, creating new dangers to navigation that were not present during the initial survey. But, wait — do people still even still use paper charts? In the world of advanced technology and improving consumer products, aren’t we on the path of letting go of these old school navigation ways? In fact, we are. The Office of Coast Survey, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA’s) office that conducts hydrographic surveys and produces the nation’s charts, are looking towards the future and anticipating where the future of charting lies. The organization already outsourced their publishing of paper charts to the private sector, discontinuing printing
their own charts in 2014. Today, NOAA is on track to transition solely to electronic charting. However, there is no timeline for when NOAA will stop producing paper and raster (RNC) chart products. This transition may take decades, and there are still many sailors who rely on the paper products. Additionally, the electronic navigational charts (ENCs) still need to improve before they are the primary source of navigation. The Office of Coast Survey began collecting electronic charting data in the 1980s and since then has been improving the ENC products used today in the electronic charting display and information system (ECDIS). ENCs became available to the public in the 1990s, and since then the number of mariners using the products has increased exponentially. This trend led to changes in U.S. Coast Guard regulations in regard to carrying paper charts versus using electronic charting displays. Since 2012, the shipping industry is making the transition to solely using the electronic charting system as its primary means of navigation, as the

International Maritime Organization (IMO) adopted regulations for mandatory use of the system by July 2018 for certain SOLAS class vessels. As this part of the shipping industry completes the change to electronic charts and ceases the use of paper charts, the Coast Guard has updated requirements for domestic voyage vessels as of February 2016, allowing those vessels subject to Coast Guard inspections to utilize electronic charts in the place of paper charts. This growing trend in the maritime industry is leading the demand for more electronic capabilities that will one day make the paper chart obsolete. The electronic charting trend is changing the way charts are updated and new editions are released. Chart updates are categorized into critical and routine data. The critical data includes all changes that could pose a danger to navigation such as positions and characteristics of aids to navigation, wrecks, rocks, shoals, and changes in minimum depths of federally maintained channels. All other updates, not dangerous to navigation, such as shoreline surveys, are considered routine data. In the past, chart updates for ENC, RNC, and paper charts provided only the critical data and the new routine data was updated with new editions of charts. Printing new editions of paper charts, until the practice was outsourced to the private sector, was driven by the amount of corrections, both critical and routine, compiled and the amount of charting paper available at the printing warehouse. Usually several thousands of copies were printed of a new edition chart, so if new corrections were few or there were plenty of charts in the warehouse, it was a low priority to create a new edition. Although this system was economical for the government and allowed mariners to update their charts by hand, it was almost impossible to provide mariners with the most accurate hydrographic
data in between chart editions. This lead to the print-on-demand charts that are printed from certified dealers. Mariners now do not need to wait for the next edition to come out, because charts can be printed weekly with up-to-date data. This includes all chart corrections since the edition was first released, including critical and routine survey data.
a metric problem Improving chart content is another area that will help streamline the data displayed in electronic charts. The International Hydrographic Organization (IHO) requires that all depths on ENCs must be encoded in meters. However, all of NOAA’s 1,000+ plus paper charts, except for a handful, use feet and fathoms. When NOAA began compiling paper chart data for digitized data in the 1990s, the data was converted into meters and now the soundings and depth areas on US ENC charts are stored in decimal metric values; a one-fathom or six-foot contour was saved as 1.8 meters, a two-fathoms or 12-foot contour saved as 3.6 meters, and so on. This kind of data input creates significant issues with selecting the most accurate safety contour on ENCs. For example, on approach charts, the contours are 10 meters and 20 meters. Since the stored data is saved at 9.1 meters (converted from five fathoms or 30 feet and 18.2 meters converted from 10 fathoms or 60 feet), if the mariner selected the 10-meter safety contour, it would not use the 9.1 meters stored in the database but would go to the next value of 18.2 meters, creating issues for deep draft vessels in shoal areas. The next step is adding more unit contours to ENCs to help those deep draft vessels and take one step closer to more metrification between international charts. The metrification of ENC and raster charts has been attempted before. During the first international hydrographic conference in London in 1919, the conference “strongly recommended that all countries, as soon as convenient, adopt the metric system for their nautical publications.” Since that conference, the Office of Coast Survey attempted to convert all nautical charts from feet and fathoms to meters, but the task was too consuming, which is why only a handful of paper charts are in meters today.

is revisiting this task and with the database of ENC values stored in meters, the transition should be less daunting than the first attempt. This standard will hopefully make US charts less confusing for US and international mariners sailing in and around US waters. The era of ENC-only charts is already upon the maritime industry. In such that, NOAA raster charts were used as the source of the original suite of NOAA ENCs and every ENC has a corresponding raster chart. The Coast Survey began creating “ENC-only” charts that are not sourced from raster charts, but rather original source material. Some of these ENCs were sourced to create new raster charts, but for other large-scale products, raster charts were not created. This saved valuable time; time better spent carrying out other areas of the Coast Survey mission than maintaining raster charts. The 2018 deadline for larger SOLAS ships to just carry ENCs is a driver to determining the initial stages of “ENC-only” charts.
In monitoring the sales and downloads of ENCs and RNCs, the numbers will aid in deciding which charts can make the leap to electronic capabilities only. The future of charting continues to demand more information with less time to deliver the final product. The Office of Coast Survey has come a long way from dropping lead lines over the side of survey boats, yet the leap from paper charts to solely electronic data may be closer than we think. As data become more readily available to a larger audience, the next logical step is streamlining databases to more user-friendly interfaces. The maritime industry is taking a giant leap. Once that leap is taken, there is no looking back to the hard-earned, coffee-stained paper chart sitting in the pilothouse. Ensign Kathryn Richwine is a commissioned NOAA Corps Officer. She served as a NOAA Diver and the Navigation Officer aboard the Fairweather for two years. She is currently on-land assignment in Seattle, WA.

RACING SHEET
Fall Fun Words: Doug Hansen // Photos: Jan Anderson The fall racing season is officially underway and, as usual, the Corinthian Yacht Club of Edmonds kicked things off with the 37th running of the Foulweather Bluff race. The lead-up to this year’s race was filled with light wind forecasts and threats of rain. Weather models had the big boats finishing just after lunch, but dying wind made the chances of getting to the UW game unlikely. Morning came with light southerly wind making a pleasant delivery from Shilshole
to the start area off Edmonds. With light winds and a forecast giving little hope of change as the day continued, the race committee made the decision to shorten the racecourse. Rather than sailing to Skatchet Head and then carrying on to Foulweather Bluff, all fleets rounded and headed towards a temporary mark set just off the beach at Pilot Point. With rain clouds drifting through the course but holding off any real moisture, racing got underway. Spinnakers went up as
the reverse start sent the cruising class off first and then the progressively faster race boats. The current was swirling and nearing a change from ebb to flood as the race progressed. The combination of the light wind and strong current funneling through the bottleneck of Puget Sound made for difficult tactical decisions, forcing big separations in the fleets. After reaching Skatchet Head, the wind shifted to the east, making for a fast-paced drag race to the Pilot Point buoy on port tack. It was during this leg that the racers got into some interest-
ing situations as the fast race boats began to mix it up and find their ways through the slower fleets. A quick tack around the temporary mark was the only chance for many boats to pass competition, and afterwards a single-file drag race back towards the finish line off Edmonds was underway. As luck would have it, the wind filled in for the first half of this last leg home, but like clockwork the first group of fast boats finished and then the wind began to shift in line with the forecast and went light. Following the season opener of Foulweather Bluff, sailors geared up for a weekend of short course racing in the Puget Sound Sailing Championship (PSSC) Big Boat Regatta hosted by Corinthian Yacht Club of Seattle. This year’s PSSC boasted strong one design fleets with the San Juan 24, Melges24, J/80, and J/105 all having their own classes. The PHRF fleets also had a strong turnout with 22 boats filling the fleets ranging from the Northwest classic Thunderbird up to the TP52’s making an appearance on Saturday for a handful of races. The fleet was separated out with the larger boats heading north of Meadow Point and the smaller boats racing in the familiar waters in front of the Shilshole breakwater to the south. Saturday started off with a chilly morning and a light southerly breeze, but quickly warmed up with sunshine and steady winds. Getting out to the south course was a great chance for

teams to get some practice gybing with their spinnakers and work out the last-minute kinks. Racing got underway on both courses and steady wind kept things busy while changing currents forced tacticians to rethink strategy through the day. Racing ended and the mob of tired sailors headed to the Corinthian Yacht Club for the sold-out pig roast dinner and daily awards. With sunshine and steady wind all day, Principal Race Officer Charlie Rathkopf said it best, “If you didn’t have fun today, you should find a different sport!” Sunday’s weather forecast was for an uneventful light air drift session, but thankfully that was far from the actual conditions. A beautiful 8 to 10-knot northerly filled in, bringing a clear sky and fantastic racing. Similar tidal conditions again tested skippers’ and tacticians’ wits while close points in the fleets made every start and mark rounding crucial for bowmen and trimmers. The weekend wrapped up with the north course boats getting in eight races for each fleet and the south course tallying up an impressive 12 starts. For November, the sailing season culminates with Seattle Yacht Club’s three-day Grand Prix Invitational regatta, followed by the legendary Round the County. While most boats are being put away for the winter, the racing season is just starting and is poised to be one to for the history books.

1. Find Your Shore Legs
P RTS OF CALL
Port Angeles Written by Matilda Henry Hours beyond the influence of the I-5 urban corridor, and just 75 miles inside Cape Flattery, lies a welcoming and protected natural harbor at the steep northern gateway to Washington’s Olympic National Park. From this natural harbor, bustling Port Angeles was conceived and now offers a working waterfront with a nostalgic vibe and the surprise of unusual contrasts. For example, the historic timber town is spawning a growing composites manufacturing community, and the discovery of an ancient burial ground inspired a modern appreciation of the Klallam tribe’s culture. Port Angeles’ maritime neighbor is Victoria, provincial capital of British Columbia, but the geography of the Olympic Peninsula and the formidable Strait of Juan de Fuca ensures wild, almost island-like isolation from more populous ports in the Salish Sea. Looking north from the shoreline on a recent fall afternoon, I viewed a busy fishing fleet, gleaming new Westport yachts, a Platypus Marine 550-ton Travelift, a lively rowing club, thriving wildlife, acres of logs, tour boats, and a changing array of anchored tankers awaiting service and resupply. However, looking to the south (and up) I was confronted with the peaks of the Olympic Mountains stabbing the sky just beyond the city limits, offering abundant recreation, quiet, and solitude. The Port Angeles waterfront attracts fishermen, longdistance cruisers, hikers, cyclists, campers, and tourists passing to and from Vancouver Island and Washington destinations. Downtown is easily accessible to the marina and pleasantly walkable. Not known for trendy liveliness, stubbornly vintage “P.A.” is showing signs of revival and transformation as new faces and jobs come to local industries and institutions. From any point on the waterfront, industry and maritime commerce are part of the landscape. Port Angeles has work to do before being considered gentrified, and doesn’t look like a typical visitor’s destination at all. But charm is there to be found—all it takes is curiosity and a bit of exploration. Be advised that it isn’t always sleepy here, for a different face of the town comes forth on festival weekends. Don’t forget to start your adventures at the Visitor’s Center office, in the charming red brick building east of the ferry dock.

A recent shoreline revitalization project converted former log storage areas into an attractive waterfront parkway that leads into the downtown core. The 15-minute stroll from the transient dock at Boat Haven to the cluster of shops, pubs, and restaurants along the parallel thoroughfares of Railroad Avenue, Front Street, and First Street is quite enjoyable. The paved parkway is a segment of the Olympic Discovery Trail, a nearly complete rails-to-trails effort to connect the entire shoreline of the North Olympic Peninsula. Walking, biking, and inline skating are allowed on the trail. which also offers wheelchair access and permits leashed pets. Check out the City Pier and observation tower, adjacent to kid-friendly Feiro Marine Life Center, a playground, and sandy Hollywood Beach. Energetic visitors can follow the trail along the shoreline, far to the east of town, into lovely, shaded Morse Creek neighborhoods and beyond.
2. What’s Out There? The spacious harbor is protected from prevailing weather by threemile-long Ediz Hook, a natural sand spit topped by a public road leading to Coast Guard Air Station Port Angeles, the service’s oldest operational air station. Ambitious hikers and bikers can head west from the marina to follow Ediz Hook Road north then east through the defunct paper mill and out onto the spit for spectacular vistas of the city, the mountains, and the Strait. Look for wildlife of all sizes, from tiny shorebirds to otters and orca whales. As you head along beaches inside the spit, check out the boathouse and graceful shells of the Olympic Peninsula Rowing Association, one of the fastest growing, all-ages groups in town. Clamber over boulders along the armored side of the spit to admire a Pacific sunset or the distant ridges of Vancouver Island, some 18 miles away. A large public boat ramp facility with seasonal finger piers, restrooms, and expansive parking is located at the end of the public roadway, just before the guard gate of the U.S. Coast Guard station.
3. Art, Music, and Culture A visiting boater with an ache for art or music might happen upon the right therapy, particularly with some advanced planning. Port Angeles is home to the annual Juan de Fuca Festival of the Arts, a raucous multiday revelry of international folk music, dance, and art. Held over Memorial Day weekend, the festival gets the city and visitors on their feet, and on the beat, in venues all over downtown. Look for delicious specialty foods and a creative vendor fair during the festival. Year-round musical performances are scheduled in venues throughout town, from the City Pier Summer series, to bar stages, to formal concerts halls. Downtown sidewalks feature a collection of striking metal sculptures by local artists, like the abstract figures people-watching at all hours. Farther afield is the unique Webster’s Woods Art Park at the Fine Art Center. Hike wooded upland trails and keep a lookout for whimsical and thought-provoking outdoor sculptures. Not far away is the Port Angeles Community Playhouse for lively theater.
4. Prehistory and More Notice the unusual downtown street signs? They’re printed in both English and the local Klallam language. A gradual awakening has revitalized the indigenous community throughout the Salish Sea, but especially within the Port Angeles community. A catalyst event shook the entire community in the summer of 2003 when a construction project west of the marina unearthed an extensive ancient burial ground and village, later determined to be about 2,700 years old (the same age as the city of Rome). It was to become the largest ancient excavation site in Washington. The Klallam people stood firm in demanding respectful treatment of the remains along with careful scholarship and curation of artifacts. The State halted the project and relocated construction to another city. The crisis lead to increased visibility for the Klallam people and strong cooperation between the tribe and the city. Visitors are invited to a permanent exhibit of artifacts at the Elwha Klallam Heritage Center and rotating exhibits featuring the culture and traditions of this great Salish tribe. Find the Heritage Center just east of downtown on First Street. Want to see and learn more about Klallam culture? Schedule a visit to coincide with the annual Canoe Journey gathering at Hollywood Beach.

ANTIFOULING F E AT U R I N G
STEVE KOVACH
“The empty vessel makes the loudest sound.” —William Shakespeare, Henry V
W Steve Kovach Tacoma-based Steve Kovach works as the Pacific Northwest representative for CleanAHull and GLOBAtech products. Kovach has lived in the Pacific Northwest for 30 years and has enjoyed a waterloving lifestyle since his childhood days playing with his friends and family on the Ohio River and Lake Erie. He is an active member of the Tacoma Waterfront Association, has a 100-year-old Old Town Canoe, and races on a Catalina 380. “I’m a pretty decent trimmer,” says Kovach modestly. He is now looking at mid-sized sailboats that will help him recover from the whirlwind of his daughter’s recent wedding.
hen you live up to your nose in marine products as I do, you run into a lot of salesmen trying to sell you snake oil. I can’t even begin to list all the revolutionary anchors that are “turning the whole marine industry on its head” or the all-new marine-grade lubricants that are “game changers.” If the salesman has his or her way, the game would be changing daily. Thus, I regard claims that seem too good to be true with a fair, but not unreasonable, amount of caution. The first time I heard of acoustic antifouling technology, I thought I was hearing the same old sales pitches. Employing sound to kill bottom growth is the basic premise of acoustic antifouling systems. In theory, one only needs to turn the system on and never worry about bottom growth again. As somebody who has lived aboard both in Florida – where bottom growth is so rampant during summer that monthly dives are needed – and the Pacific Northwest, the idea of pushing a button and negating the need for below-water bottom-growth maintenance seemed farfetched. Ultimately, my skepticism was overpowered by my curiosity. The expanding list of testimonials from those who have given acoustic antifouling a shot makes the idea even more compelling. For example, locally-
84 NORTHWEST YACHTING || NOVEMBER 2017
distributed CleanAHull systems (made by GLOBAtech Australia) has happy clients that include the U.S. Coast Guard, U.S. Navy, Alaskan eco-tourism vessels, large motoryachts, and sailboats. Perhaps there is something to these systems after all, I began to think. When one considers the impending copper bottom paint regulations for Washington, an out-of-the-box solution like acoustic antifouling becomes even more enticing. To get to the bottom it all, I sat down with Tacoma-based Steve Kovach, the Pacific Northwest representative for CleanAHull systems with distributor Ultra-SoniTec, LLC. Q: Copper bottom paints are still by far the most common mainstream antifouling method. How long has this ultrasonic technology been around for? Copper has been used, first with sheets and then with paint, for centuries. But during and after WWII, the U.S. Navy noticed that the sonar domes on their submarines were not becoming fouled like the rest of the vessel. They ultimately figured out that the ultrasonic pulses from the sonar system was prevent-
ing anything from growing on the dome. So, the principle was discovered during the late ‘40s, and the concept was used on and off without great success. N o t q u i t e 2 0 ye a r s a g o , GLOBAtech (an engineering and manufacturing company) decided to go after this technology. GLOBAtech designed and engineered CleanAHull systems for boats, water treatment systems, plumbing systems, and just about anything where growth was a concern. The Australian company can manufacture just about anything. They make their own circuit boards in-house so they don’t send any work out. Q: How does the system work, exactly? One of our standard systems for boats 32' to 45' has four ultrasonic transducers involved. Each transducer covers about 50' of diameter, so we take into consideration the layout every boat for complete coverage. We don’t want to situate transducers near electronics or stringers that may absorb sound, thereby mitigating the transducer’s efficacy. We sell systems in sets of two or four transducers. Ultrasonic
The way these systems work is that the hull is essentially turned into an audio speaker. Sound pulsed at high frequencies are emitted on a cycle, and the pulses extend out a short distance from the hull.
antifouling works on fiberglass, steel and aluminum hulls. Wood and ferrocement hulls absorb sound so the system isn’t suitable. Q: So, every job is basically a custom job?" Sort of, at least in terms of transducer placement and installation. We provide a detailed layout for each installation based on the manufacturer’s drawing or one provided by the boat owner. Q: The transducers are mounted on the inside of the boat, correct? Right. Typically, they are close to the middle of the keel. You want some overlap of tthe transducer’s approximately 15 feet of coverage. One boat that we just recently completed is a 76’ motoryacht. It has 16 transducers, one on the bow thruster, one on the stern thruster, one on each stabilizer, one on each rudder and the balance on the hull. In terms of rudders, we mount transducers on the quadrant or a metal part so the ultrasonic pulses travel downward and disperse around the rudder. Especially in the aft, the sound will be situated around struts to protect those from growth as much as possible. The way these systems work is that the hull is essentially turned into an audio speaker. Sound pulsed at high frequencies are emitted on a cycle, and the pulses extend out a short distance from the hull. The pulses interfere with the cellular structure of microorganisms, killing them. The boat will typically have a grey scum line that’s a millimeter or two thick at the waterline when in its slip. That layer is made up of dead microorganisms killed by the system. As soon as the boat is operating at around three knots or more, the scum washes off. There’s also the added beneficial effect that there’s nothing on the boat to be eaten by larger lifeforms, because the microscopic basis of the food chain is interrupted. In the case of barnacles, they start out their lives as microscopic larvae, and the acoustic antifouling system neutralizes them before they can mature into a barnacle that grows on a hull. Q: What about the noise? Can you hear it? No, it’s completely quiet. You’ll never hear it inside the boat. Divers can hear it when they are near the transducers, and the user can
put the system into a sleep mode if desired. We have a sleep mode for three or six hours that we recommend using so that you don’t forget to turn it back on. Q: Can the system deal with growth that’s already there, or it used purely to keep new growth from happening? The system does not eliminate old growth. It’s best to install the system on a clean bottom. CleanAHull systems don’t clean a bottom, but it keeps a bottom clean. The systems work in conjunction with paint. We recommend still using a good bottom paint, and most of our customers move to a hard-bottom paint. Q: Do these systems increase the amount of time a boater can operate before a haul out? Yes, that is one of the best attributes of ultrasonic antifouling methods. Our customers in the Pacific Northwest have shifted from needing a haul-out and new bottom paint every 18 to 24 months to a three- or four-year cycle. That’s some considerable savings! For example, our company headquarters is in North Carolina and we have a company office in Sarasota, Florida as well. The owner of the company has a 58' Hatteras in Sarasota. Florida is a very active area for growth, and Sarasota Bay is a mix of fresh and saltwater. During the summer months, he hired a diver twice a month. He used to haul out his boat every 18 months or less, and his haul-outs cost him about $7,000 a time. Then he went ultrasonic. The

system on his boat cost $8,000 and paid for itself after 13 months. He is going three years now between haul-outs. For a system of eight, the price is about $5,000. The standard quad system is about $2,500. Many of our customers install themselves, we have installation instructions, online videos, and the like. It’s quite easy. There is an upfront cost on these systems, but by far, everyone we sell this to has saved money in the long term. It’s a cost saver. Q: What about environmental impacts? This system is completely non-invasive to the marine en-
vironment, and no chemicals are involved. We always get the question about oxidation as well, and ultrasonic antifouling methods have nothing to do with replacing zincs and the like. The pulses of sound have no effect on electrolysis or galvanic corrosion. And there’s nothing in the water, no through holes are even needed. We get questions about sea mammals too, and it doesn’t effect sea mammals. Even though it is a high-frequency sound pulse, the sound only extends a few millimeters beyond the boat.

Kevin’s Catch By Kevin Klein
Continued from Page 55
whatever light you are using and let the jig fall. Then twitch and reel in until the lure comes back to you. Keep pressure on when bringing the lure back in to keep the squid from releasing its grasp and getting away. Most lighter rods and reels will work fine for squid. Man, do these cephalopods make good eating. Calamari is one of the best dishes to prepare after you get a daily limit of five quarts or 10 lbs. What a great appetizer for Sunday football…fresh squid caught on Saturday night!
We had a pretty good summer fishing season to be thankful for in many areas of the Pacific Northwest. Even though the migrating fish may have moved through, it doesn’t mean you should migrate off the water. If you live in the Pugetopolis area surrounding the Sound, there are still fun times to be had. Getting creative and gaining local knowledge of shoulder season opportunities can pay off with seafood you catch. Until next time, get off the tryptophan, get off the couch, get out there, and go get some!
Kevin’s Pick: As a hardcore fisherman, I spend a lot of time on my feet on the deck of a boat. Whether it’s driving from the rear helm all day in a salmon derby, or battling halibut or tuna in slippery conditions, fatigue and safety are big concerns. That’s why we’ve got SeaDek being installed on our next Team Parker Northwest boat. These deck coverings provide cushion, protection, and are easy to clean. I’m especially excited to use their bolster/coaming pads. SeaDek also looks awesome, with long lasting colors that can match many interiors and exteriors.

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.

ASK THE EXPERTS
ACOUSTIC Continued from Page 85
have dolphins and the like following the wakes of their boats just like normal. Some people turn it off when underway, which makes sense. You don’t have to worry about growth generally when underway. But you certainly don’t want to forget to turn it on again when you’re in port. The power draw on an entire standard quad-transducer system is 850 milliamps (mA). It’s basically an anchor light with regards to power draw. When you’re at dock, it won’t add much of anything to the shore power bill. We’ve also been rated the highest place for an ecofriendly antifouling system by the Northwest Green Chemistry Association, which took place last year or the year before. From an ecological standpoint, we’re off the charts in terms of being good for the environment. Q: Could you put a unit like this on a marina dock to keep it growth-free? We had a question about that recently. It could work, technically. We haven’t had anybody actually try that. You’d have to have a special unit that is submersible. The transducers we sell to boaters are submersible up to three feet or so and engineered with U.S. marine grade waterproof approval, number 68 or 69. Highly tested. Our understanding is that ours is the highest rated in terms of being waterproof. Q: What kind of safety features do your systems feature? How does one
know if the system is working properly? Are there safety features to keep users in the know? Our control module constantly measures the temperature inside the model, the electric pulses, and other parameters. What’s more, our transducers have separate generators, while other models run all transducers on the same generator. That’s good in case of failure. We’ve never had a generator fail, knock on wood. Our system also automatically adjusts for a 12-Volt or 24-Volt power system. There are smart electronics in it that display alarms and notifications. For example, if a transducer fails, then a red light will flash, and an audio alarm will go off so you can address the situation. We had a customer who got an alarm once, and we actually downloaded the data directly from the system to our engineering support team to figure out what was going on. In this case, there was chaffing of a wire from a transducer installed in the bilge that the owner didn’t catch right away. Q: A lot of electronics systems are moving toward the Wi-Fi compatible and NMEA 2000 gateway direction. Is that the plan here? Is it necessary? It’s not really necessary for us. Fundamentally, it’s a passive part of the boat. It’s always there and it’s always running. If there’s an alarm, you’re going to know it.
Steve Kovach shows off the standard fourtransducer unit. The entire system fits in his briefcase. No through-hull fittings are required on the user's boat.

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.
