Commodore’s Report Al Henning Regatta Action
September 2012
Mark your calendar: Blue Nose Regatta and Shrimp Boil – Sept 15 Yard & Dock Day – October 13
Haul Out – October 20 Join us for Packer Sundays!
Another busy month. Visitors to the Yacht Club present us with a particular opportunity to ‘show off’. We were delighted to host some events during the past few weeks. From the youth side, Amy Cermak’s YWCA Discovery Sail brought down sixty girls for a little ride around the lake. That may have been a record and we are thankful to those skippers and crew that made it happen. I would like to make special note of the RYC Race Committee. Bob and Cathy Sample worked hard this year to extend the Al Henning Regatta into a Racine Yacht Club Race Week. I think this was the Sample’s vision and they successfully put together fleets from the Star District, Laser Regionals and Clinic, Catamaran Racing Association of Wisconsin with Clinic in addition to our normal Regatta schedule. The increased activity demonstrates the vitality of our organization. The heightened program would not have been possible without the help of plenty of volunteers and an organized Race Committee that included mark set and judging. It is with pride that we acknowledge that both Bob and Cathy were trained and are certified as US SAILING Race Officers. It shows.We were also hosts for the United States Power Squadron District meeting. It overlapped some of the weekend racing schedule and just added to the buzz. We put a lot of people out on the big water... especially those who are part of the District but from ‘out West’. The weekend also featured cardboard boat races in addition to outdoor grilling and meetings. That all added to the activity at the Club and led to some interesting outcomes. Most specifically, a combination of the welcoming and hospitable nature of our membership and the beautiful venue make this Club pretty darn attractive. One of the Power Squadron members, while walking out to the pier, was informed by Bill Erdmann of the SeaRay the Scouts had for sale. And as the week progressed, we got closer to making a deal. There was some work to be done, but the interesting part was how it got done. I had no shortage of help in accomplishing some of these tasks, but the prospective owner and wife noticed the willingness of our members to ‘lend a hand’, and ‘chip in’. Members stopped aboard to survey the progress, talk to the prospective buyer, and offer advice as they were stepping up to a larger boat. In a matter of a few hours, these
people felt welcome and assured that they could be a part of this very special community. The progression of the Club helping me was very distinctly transformed into how this Club will help ‘us’, the prospective new boat owners and prospective new members. It’s an amazing process to witness and very satisfying to be a part of such a strong community. Needs some work: The canoe and kayak program is successful. It’s not a lot of work, and on those days when the wind isn’t cooperating, you can usually see some empty slots on the rack. That’s good. The Family Sailing program isn’t really working in terms of participation and usage. It’s really a simple program. We have two small sloops, a twenty-footer and a twenty-three. If you’re a person interested in sailing, you can contact one of our mentors and they will get you and your family out on that boat with the goal being that the participants will have the skills and knowledge to take boat on their own. Not much written in stone, we have people to get you started in sailing, we have good equipment and some parameters to make sure it’s done with safety in mind. We charge fifty bucks for a member/family to participate in the program. Well, it’s not working very well. I guess anytime you think “Well heck (I really never use that word), this will sell itself”, it is a sure sign that it will not sell itself. Figures.I have had discussions with Bill Erdmann and Michael Anania and we think it hasn’t been sufficiently ‘marketed’. Mike has agreed to help us design a campaign that we can integrate with

From the August Board meeting minutes:Treasurer Frank Randall presented the July financial statement with the comment that utility cost is up slightly, otherwise, there are no surprises. Lake level 10” below last years’ level. Commodore Charlie Manning was just back from an 8-day Cruise with Sea Scouts. He commended Buck Mercer on a wonderful job as HOOK Chairman. Scott Lewis is expected to do a great job as well as the new chairman. Vice Commodore Gregg Henning prepared a written report as follows: Silt fence removed, researching alternatives. Wind fence material used at baseball diamonds would cost approx. $1100 plus shipping. Can be ordered in many different colors. 5’ high by 325’ long. 6 to 8 weeks lead time. Weather Station: NOAA does not have funding to assist with costs. Currently researching costs for new weather station and webcam to have available from our website.
Office Manager Kim Shortess indicated a need to get going on the new directory. She asked for any ideas regarding getting people to participate in having their photos taken. Rear Commodore John Stanley reported Juniors doing well. Zoie Weiss wrote an article, which was in the August Reef Point regarding all day adventure camp, which was a huge hit! Milwaukee Race was scheduled for Aug 17, with RYC offering racers free dockage. NOTE: Race cancelled due to weather on the actual date of the race. Membership Secretary Pam Jobson’s report:NEW MEMBERS: Active Over 30: Robin Knodel, DDS and Ronald SekulskiAssociate: Terry Marcus
STATUS CHANGES:Associate to Social: Dan and Jan FreyActive to Social: Bonita SmithActive to Non-resident: Stephen Hamming All changes were unanimously approved. Jobson reported RYC is going to have a “partnership” with RAMAC’s Young Professionals of Racine (YPR), We will advertise in their newsletters. RYC will offer to waive the initiation fee for any of their members who join the Club by the end of the year. A Business After 5 party will be Aug 30. 30 YPR members will participate in Wing Night, receive boat rides and have a bonfire on the beach. House Director Jared Shortess reported a new awning has been installed. The walk-in cooler will have evaporator replaced (leaking, can’t be repaired). The HOOK sponsorship deal involved us purchasing Death’s Door Vodka and Gin for rail drinks. This proved too costly to do forever. In the future we will do for the HOOK month of July. Shortess asked the caterer to “step it up” for Regatta sandwiches, to include “fixin’s.” Shortess fielded a few complaints after 4th of July. Pier Director Mark Lukow presented his written report:SUMMARY: Water level is an ongoing concern. Eurasian water milfoil was treated on July 24. Electrical upgrade for slips 55-60 is complete. Main pier lighting will be next electrical project. We will either rewire current 6’ globe lights or replace with 2’ mushroom lights. We accommodated 32 visitors for the HOOK. Many thanks to 2012 HOOK Dockmaster, Fred Stritt, for fitting everyone in. Yard Director Jack Landwehr presented his written report:
Grass is green, garbage is in its place and there is only one boat in the dry sail area I have questions about. We need to schedule the parking lot coating project. Nails on the walkway that are coming up should be removed and replaced with screws. Entertainment Director Kurt Lasson announced the band for Regatta supposed to be great. 5th Street was holding a luau on Saturday August 18. Cardboard Boat Race USPS will be on Saturday AUG 18. Great Band is being scheduled for Shrimp Boil.

Commodore’s Report, cont’d HOOK Race 2012
our current ‘boatless’ members. Just as importantly, we will try to integrate the Family Sailing marketing with the Adult Sailing School in the spring. It’s a natural transition but is not obvious to our participants that being on the water could be so easy. We have all the pieces on the chess board, we just have to get them pointing in the right direction. Just sayin’.Coming up: Bluenose Regatta in September. If you aren’t racing, be sure to come down for the Shrimp Boil. Tickets go quickly, so you’ve been duly warned. This is kind of the wind down of the boating season. For me, the season just leads to our other season, Packer Sundays. I enjoy the Club in the fall & winter months. One of the Sea Scout projects last year was a pig cooker and with the help of my buddy Frank Gall, this bad boy is ready to rock. We will roll that out on one of the afternoon games this season. See you down at the Club. – Charlie Manning, Commodore
The Thunder from Down Under – Actually Door County The HOOK Race 2012 got an early start this year. By the end of early registration we had more than 47 boats registered. Those 47 boats were able to take advantage of the great price by letting us know who wanted to sail HOOK 2012. Additionally, one lucky skipper got his registration fee reimbursed in the early bird raffle. The winner this year was Jim Kerlin of Blue Pearl, who by the way was a first time HOOKer. When it was all said and done we had 70 boats register for this year’s race.However, when Friday night rolled around only 57 skippers and crews had check in. Now Friday night is a big night for the HOOK. First and foremost old friends are seeing each other for the first time since last year’s race. As the sailors came in to register they were immediately greeted by Sue Beres and Mary Vandehei. Sue and Mary were able to get the sailors all the information they needed/required so that they got to spend more time with the rest of the crowd. While socializing in the bar drinking one of Death’s Door Spirits’ special drinks, made by Zach Correa, they were able to check out the cool shirts that Sandy Mott had on display. We had great live music on the patio and have to give Kurt Lasson kudos on finding such an awesome group. At 1900 we got the skipper’s meeting out of the way and Friday night was officially started. One thing that went unnoticed by most people was the excellent work by Freddie Stritt on getting the right boat to the right dock –thanks Freddie.Early Saturday morning we got the Larsen’s Kringles and coffee set up while the late comers continued to register. Bob and Cathy Sample got their committee together and headed out to the start area around 0900. The Samples modified our starting procedure a little to speed up the starts. The racers wanted to get going north and the committee wanted to get going as well. After the committee got back, several of us headed up to MMYC to get the finish set up. It was good thing we got up there early because at 0830 Golden Goose had notified us that they had passed through Death’s Door. This had to have been one of the fastest times through the Door. We all had planned to meet at the club by noon to get things underway. Then we figured we had three hours before the Goose crossed the line. We
called Sue Mars, our MMYC HOOK Chair, and she was just as shocked. By 1030 Ken Luedtke had everything under control, the trailer out on the pier, mark in place and the club was ready for check-ins. However the wind died and Golden Goose crossed at 1545-still amazingly fast! Since this was such a fast race our midnight crews had a busy night. Bob and Pam Jobson out in the trailer and Sue and Mary (yes, they worked both ends of the race) were doing the check-in. By the time their shift was over the majority of the boats had finished. Dianne Luedtke did a great job on getting bodies for all the shifts up in MMYC. MMYC did a super job on providing the racers a continental breakfast and a bloody mary bar! At 1130 a.m. the last boat finished. Having everyone in by noon we made the call to move up the dinner and awards. So right after the Death’s Door Rum party, run by Mary, Zach and Kristy, we sat down to an awesome pig roast. (Schussler’s Catering is just a great caterer.) During all this Randy, RYC bartender, hosted games throughout the rum party and dinner. We were able to move the awards up as well. At 1800 we got the awards underway. An honorable mention goes to Charlie Gagnon who finished his 25th HOOK. Two boats who stood out were Golden Goose, a Farr 36, skippered by Art Mitchell, the first to finish and winning line honors and second is Thunder, a Peterson 34, skippered by Stuart Keys, the overall winner and the double handed winner as well. That’s right, a double handed boat won overall honors this year. Congratulations to Stuart and his son Sam.This year’s race was very fast and good times were had by all. I would like to thank all the people who have helped over the past three years. I would also like to thank our sponsors: Death’s Door Spirits, Don-Q Rum; Diversified Insurance Services; Tri City National Bank; AmericInn; UK Sailmakers-the only full production loft in the Chicago/Milwaukee area; West Marine; APS Annapolis Performance Sailing; Larsen Bakery and Weather Routing Inc. I would also like to introduce Scott Lewis who will be taking my place next year. Scott has done the race several times and worked it many more. So Scott takes over with HOOK experience on both sides of the race. Good Luck Scott!
