HILLSBORO INLET SAILING CLUB July 2020 Lighthouse Point, Florida

From The Helm Inside This Issue

Continued on Page 2

The month of June pro-vided a small dose of re-lief from the COVID sit-uation as cases dipped and restrictions began to relax. We were able to hold a few club events that were enjoyed by those that chose to par-ticipate.

We held our Spring Series race, which were races 9 & 10. While all the others were cancelled, we decide to hold a spring “Mini-Series” with these two races being the final, and only races of the series. With decent winds and bumpy seas, we had 8 boats participate. Special thanks to Jim Wallace and Carl Wehe who helped pull this race together. It was good to see the boats on the water again. We also held our annual Bill Nederlanden

Coastal Race on June 20th. The forecast called for 4 knot winds out of the Southeast for that day. Lucky for us the average was closer to 8 knots with relatively flat seas. We had 13 boats participate in 4 classes with Endurance winning the overall Perpetual Trophy. Congratulations. Joe Geller on Tripolar served as our star mark. And thank you to Judy Whittaker and the beach committee for a job well done. The Father’s Day “cruizette” followed the Coastal race at Bahia Mar thanks to Paul Alcock, Eduardo Rabadan, and Christeen Pozniak. 6 boats attended including Eximius, Cookie Monster, Affection, Imagine, Getting’ Nauti, and Windpunk. We also had quite a few join us by land. Despite the need to practice social distancing, good times were had, sailing stories were told, and it was good to see the group again. Gettin’ Nauti was in need of an anchor light repair and needed to climb the mast. Paul Alcock came to the rescue with his fancy gadgetry and his WinchRite to ensure Rob a safe and comfort-able trip up the mast. Virtual Happy Hour’s continue to be a thing, and have been moved to ever 4th Thursday of every month. We hope to make them actual happy hours in the future after this pesky pandemic releases the grip it has on us. COVID continues to be among us as a second surge in cases is now taking place. We will most likely see restrictions reinstated. It is unfortunate, but we have decided to cancel the Independence Day Cruise. At this time, the proper course for the club remains difficult to determine. We will continue with the race program. And, in a bit of irony, our next race is the single-hand race on July 18th. Save the date! We hope to see many boats on the water. If you would like to see the results of the races, our activity calendar, or download the latest Inlet/Outlet newsletter, you can visit the HISC website at www.hisc.org. Stay Safe and Happy Sailing. Hope to see you on the water soon Dale Kern HISC Commodore 2020-2021—Wind Punk

Father’s Day Cruisette 2020

By Paul Alcock

It was a beatiful Florida morning when the Nederlanden racers were lin-ing up for their start just North of Hillsboro Inlet. Meanwhile, Eximius was winding it's way down the New River to Bahia Mar.

The staff at Bahia Mar were glad to see us after nearly three months of lock down due to the pandemic and we were all glad to be out on our boats too. Jeff and Judy Keiser were already there when we arrived, Wind Punk was next as the racers had started to arrive. Mike and Brenda on Imag-ine with a sizable crew soon docked, then Eduardo, Eva and crew ar-rived on Cookie Monster. Some crews went up to the pool to cool off from the 90°+ heat. Road travelers started to arrive bringing Pizzas, thanks Tom and Naterlie , Shrimp, thanks Bob and Pat, Mangos Tom Jockers. Around 5:30, an ad hoc party began. Fish, hush puppies and fries from Paul Renneisen, water melon from Christen and Franco, Beef Enchila-das made by Eva. If I missed anyone, let me know. With plenty of wine, beer and Rum to go around Sea stories were laid out on the dock. We all tell a good yarn. Somehow we all managed to Social Distancing pretty well, a couple of close calls, but all was handled very well. Amanda Haylee arrived by dinghy for the party, better late than dead on time. Saturday was a great restart of the 2020 cruising calendar.

Looking forward to July the 4th Cruise.

This year's big sailing trip was to be to the Exumas in conjunction with the club's Bimini cruise. COVID scrapped those plans and we had to think of something else to do with our three weeks of vacation. Thanks to the Sussman's for suggesting Plan B. Go North, where the restaurants and marinas were just starting to open. Then cross Florida through the Okeechobee Waterway. The quarantine was lifting on the west coast too. We left at midday on 21 May so we stopped at Palm Beach for the night after a great first day sail. We bor-rowed a derelict mooring ball in the field in front of the Palm Beach Sailing Club. The next morning brought a continuous line of storms into Palm Beach and we decided to try and get out between the cells. We were narrowly missed by three lightning strikes. Memories of our lightning en-counter from last year in the same spot were playing on repeat in our heads. Once we got a few miles north of the inlet we were clear of the weather but the sea was a wash-ing machine for a couple of more hours. Despite the guidebooks warning of "local knowledge required" , our entry through the Port St Lucie Inlet was no problem at all. We were supposed to meet some HISC face-book friends (Camille and Tom) in Manatee Pocket around noon but we were a few hours late and didn't connect. Still, there are several restaurants with dinghy docks to choose from. We had a late lunch at Manatee Island Bar. Of note here is that whatever is on the bottom of Manatee Pocket, it smells really bad when you bring it up on your anchor! We continued as far as we could up the St Lucie River which was to the first lock. The locks close kind of early and this one closed at 1630. There was quite a bit of splashing in the waters that night. Fortunately it turned out to be exuberant fish and not alligators. After the St Lucie Lock we proceeded to our next big event which was the Port Mayaca RR bridge. This bridge is permanently in the raised position and normally has 49 ft of clearance. It is the controlling bridge height on the passage across. My VHF antenna is 49 ft 6 in high. Luckily for us the water levels were down and the clearance was 52 ft. The guidebooks say to contact the Indiantown Marina for info on the water levels (which can be higher too after a lot of rain) I never got them to answer. The best place

to call is the Port Mayaca lock keeper at 561-924-2858. And of all the bridges we passed under, this bridge had no water level/clearance guide at the bottom! We saw our first alligator at the Port Mayaca Lock. The keeper said that they usually have about 30 laying on the banks. Paddle boarding was suddenly not appealing. We were able to sail across Lake Okeechobee until we got into the channel at the SW end. We decided to skip Clewiston to get through the Moore Haven Lock before the end of the day - again 1630. Just on the other side of the lock is the sleepy little town of Moore Haven. There is a long dock along the waterfront park. It is $1 a foot to spend the night with power and water included. You either pay at the door slot at City Hall

(which is right there) or in our case someone stopped by to collect. We were the only boat there. A few blocks away was a dollar store where we picked a few items we forgot to pack. A fly swatter was a key item. There are no restaurants or bars there. The next morning brought a beautiful pink sunrise which Jamie posted on FB. But as the saying goes; red sky in the morn... So it drizzled rain all day but it was welcome relief from the heat while motoring in the canal. We got very good at spotting alligators on this leg. Two bumps in the water, one slightly larger than the other (eyes and nostrils). Next stop was Ft Myers Yacht Basin (the city marina). They were great there and very convenient to downtown old Ft Myers which is full of bars and restaurants. Also a Publix, where shopping is a pleasure.

The next day we went north up to Cayo Costa and met up with a friend of mine from work who brought his 47 ft Catana down from Punta Gorda. We spent the night in Peli-can Bay which is a great anchorage. That is until four law enforcement boats come screaming through with lights blazing away. Jamie finally got to use her new paddle board. There is a park there and you can go ashore. Once ashore you can go to the other side of the island to the beach on a shuttle. We motored back to Cape Coral and met up with Alan and Karyn Katz. Alan was the 2012 HISC Commodore. We stayed at the Tarpon Point Marina which is the marina at their condo. After enduring a tongue lashing for having no reservation, we were al-lowed to stay (because they had no other transients there). We ate dinner at the marina at an excellent place called Gather. Their wine was very good. So good in fact that it didn't take long to convince the Katz's to sail along with us to Marco Island the next day. The sail to Marco Island was excellent but required quite a bit of tacking. Shoaling

around Capri Pass and Factory Bay is not depicted on the charts. The Katz touched bot-tom numerous times getting into Factory Bay. Although rafting up was not permitted, we had dinner aboard Ciboney. The Katz departed at high tide the next morning and we left soon after. That night we wound up anchoring about 1.5 miles offshore at Lostmans Key in the Everglades in about 11 ft of water. We were surrounded by an intense electri-cal storm off shore and a huge wildfire on shore. Fortunately the storm went around us. It was bad. We lost cell phone coverage during the Everglades portion but regained a signal when we approached the Moser Channel Bridge at the west end of Marathon Key. This is the fourth and final crossing point in the keys for sailboats before Key West. Boot Key, lo-cated just east of the bridge, has a well protected mooring field. Unfortunately they turned us down because the keys weren't open yet. You could buy fuel, water, and ice at the dock. Just not a mooring ball. So we anchored out at the west end of Boot Key. Having never sailed in the keys before we decided to see what it was like on the "outside" the next day. An east wind against a west current led to choppy conditions and a most unfavorable sailing angle so we mo-tored up to the Channel Five Bridge at the west end of Lower Matecumbe Key. This is the next in line of bridges that are sailboat friendly. Once inside we found the ICW clearly marked and double digit depths. Usually 10-11 ft. We made our way up to the state owned protected area behind Shell Key. What your charts don't tell you but the guidebooks do is that there are five compli-mentary mooring balls at Shell Key. With the winds unchanged we decided to stay inside another day. Some of the cuts through the mangroves are interesting and many a power boat passing by at full throt-tle. There are no "no wake" zones down there. Some will slow down for you and some do not. We stopped by Gilbert's in Key Largo for a final top off before the push to home. They are very expensive there for everything. Bring a fat wallet if you go there. Then on to Elliott Key for the night. We met up with about 100 power boats when we got there. All but a few left by night fall. We anchored about .25 mile off the beach in 13 ft of water. Pumpkin Key is another good anchoring spot in that area. We had a fantastic sail up Biscayne Bay and anchored in the Marine Stadium cut at Vir-

ginia Key. This is a daytime hangout we discovered. A lot of jet skis zooming around us until dark. I put a buoy on the anchor line about 30 ft in front of the boat and they still came zooming right by it. The line was probably 3-4 ft under the water there. Much to our amusement we watched a small power boat drop anchor, slowly drag anchor for about 30 minutes, then repeat. Four times. We scoped out a number of anchorages for future stop overs. I was surprised to see a few boats anchored out behind Fisher Island which is conveniently just inside Government Cut. The sail home was fantastic. But we were met at Hillsboro Inlet by a powerful storm and an out going tide. I barely had the boat under control as we passed the breakwater just in time to have a sport fisherman decide it was time to go full power. His wake add-ed to the wave action and we took a wave halfway up the cockpit enclosure. Complete-ly flooded the boat. Welcome home. Special notes. If you want to do this trip, we recommend cooler months (and drier months if the Port Mayaca RR Bridge clearance is an issue). Call ahead to check. The bugs were not too bad as long as there was a breeze. Sometimes the wind died around 4 am. That's when the trouble started. Horseflies were a pain, however, but only in the daytime. This was the first cruise we've been on that re-provisioning enroute was con-venient. We enjoyed the trip and look forward to sailing up to Stuart again and also the west coast which has a lot to offer. Now that we've done the Okeechobee Waterway once we will check that off as been there done that.

Doing Membership in the time of Coronavirus is like beating to windward. It is a tough slog, but when you reach the mark, it is worth the effort. A few prospective members will be de-layed until July, but we do have four excellent additions to the greatest sailing club ever. We are gaining members while others are losing them. And we can thank our founders for not investing in a clubhouse with fixed costs. Yacht clubs with buildings and staff are really having a financial storm. We continue to skim over the waves on a beam reach. Please welcome our new members at virtu-al events and maybe in person this summer when we can all meet for real. Geoff Jarvis has been inducted into our Club. Geoff has 40 years’ experi-ence sailing including a trans-Atlantic race. He currently delivers boats to destinations far and wide including an upcoming delivery of a 62’ yacht to Annapolis. He is currently writing a book about his career with a working ti-tle of It’s All About the Journey. Geoff will be active in the Club as a Youth Sailing instructor. His sponsors are Jim Wallace and Tom Garvey. Board Member conducting the interview was 1 Year Director Elizabeth White. Ramon Abreu is a member in good standing. He has lived in southeast Florida since 1986. He came with a large family; however, his grown kids have fled the nest. Ramon is actively trying to gain sailing experience. By the time you read this he will have taken a trip on a 30' Trimaran. He's looking forward to being able to participate in the club events and thought the Zoom introductory meeting was a g `1reat way to learn more about the club. His sponsors are Hector Arrillaga and Michael Duvall. Board Member con-ducting the interview was Vice Commodore Paul Alcock. Steve & Jodi Lurcott have joined us as members of the HISC. They live aboard At Last, their ketch rigged Irwin 52, at the Lighthouse Point marina. Years ago, Steve shared his love of sailing with Jodi while he was working and living part time in the San Francisco bay area. They bought At Last when

they relocated to New England. For a bit of time the boat was on the hard in the northeast while they were again out west. In 2012 they moved to Light-house Point bringing the big ketch with them. Their sponsors are Ken White and Robert Schuldenfrei. Board Member conducting the interview was Rear Commodore Ross Hunton. Paul & Katia Shiryaev are now a Club member. They moved from Rus-sia to Canada about 15 years ago, and then to Florida to escape the cold. Paul found the HISC via racing on club boats including Glory Daze. Continuing to wander, they spent a couple of pre-Dorian years in Abaco, living near Treasure Key and sailing on the sea of Abaco with friends. Their sponsors are John Kaelblein and Judy Keiser. Board Member conducting the interview was Rear Commodore Ross Hunton.

After enduring an unnecessarily tedious radio conversation for a bridge opening a cou-ple of weeks ago it was suggested that someone should write an article about VHF eti-quette. So I volunteered and contacted the Hillsboro Inlet bridge for their input as well. We use our radios a lot in our area. Mostly for bridge openings and for boat to boat com-munications. (ie thanks for the wake). Many of our boats have the fixed mounted radio down in the cabin, far away from the helm. In our busy VHF area it is important to have an audible and readily accessible radio at the helm station. Unless you are trying to reach someone not nearby like the Coast Guard or Tow Boat then please ensure your radio is in low mode. No one in Dania Beach is interested in your need for an opening at Hillsboro Inlet. Listen to the radio before you speak. If you key a mike while someone else is talking then their transmission comes out garbled. This is called being stepped on. Also listen to be sure the conversation on the radio is complete before you initiate another one. This includes conversations at other bridges on the same frequency. Listen ahead of time to other boats at your bridge. Especially for boats under tow since they have right of way. This is a frequent occurrence at Hillsboro Inlet. Also the tender may see you and want to speak with you even if you do not desire an opening. For example, you come in the Hillsboro Inlet but plan to stay in the anchorage in front of the bridge for a while (like beercan). The tender may ask if you need an opening so he will hold the bridge open for you. Know your bridge. Asking the bridge tender about opening times is for amateurs. This information can be easily found on the internet (which is available along the ICW) or in guide books. If you can't remember then make yourself a note sheet. This includes the name of the bridge, the frequencies and if necessary the phone numbers. You should also look up the tide info to see which direction has right of way. It is best to try and call about 5 minutes before a scheduled opening time. Any time you are communicating on VHF the first transmission should follow the Who You Are, Where You Are, What You Need format. This applies to Tow Boat and Coast Guard as well as bridges. Let's look at a bridge conversation. Hail the bridge, who you are, where you are, what you need. Hail the the bridge; Call the bridge by its readily identifiable name (internet or guide-book). Hillsboro Inlet Bridge is different from Hillsboro Blvd Bridge and the not ac-ceptable "Hillsboro Bridge" should never be used. After the hail, pause just a half a sec-

ond for the tender to react to your call and turn his attention to your transmission be-cause the next thing he has to do is get a pen and his log book. Who you are; On initial contact speak your boat name slowly and clearly. Be sure to pronounce each syllable so the tender can write it down in his log. Your name may make sense to you but unless it is made of commonly spoken words it probably doesn't to the tender. (ie: A-le-bri-je, Sem-pre A-man-tes) Where you are; Southbound, northbound, inbound. Whatever is most accurate to help the tender look out and see you. If he cannot look out and readily identify you then pro-vide more information. For example if there are a bunch of sail boats waiting, tell him how to identify your boat.(we are the third sailboat in line, we are the grey catamaran). What you need; Requesting an opening. Remember to speak slower. Do not just rattle this off as fast as you can. The response from the tender may be a simple roger, stand by on channel nine, or tell you the next opening time. All you need to say at this point is your boat name and a thank you. As you pass under the bridge the tender should be watching you. He is usually trying to read the name on your transom. If you have eye contact give him a wave rather than a radio call. This helps keep the radio chatter down. In Summary; Hillsboro Inlet Bridge, Hillsboro Inlet Bridge Sailing vessel Lady Grey Southbound Requesting your next opening Lady Grey, Roger. Next opening at 1130, Standby on channel 9 Lady Grey, Roger, Thank you. Hillsboro Inlet, Lady Grey is clear, thanks for the opening And as they say at Target, "That was easy!"
