Workshop at yacht club stresses mariner safety during wind farm construction

Fishing report.

“We don’t like seeing pylons and turbines in our ocean, but if built responsibly, it is better than burning coal or other fossil fuels to generate electricity,” Kristen Smith stated during Wednesday night’s mariner safety workshop at the Wickford Yacht Club in North Kingstown. 

Smith, her husband, Matthew, and about 25 other members of the Wickford Yacht Club were at the mariner safety workshop conducted by the Better Bay Alliance and wind farm developer Ørsted. The Danish company will be laying cable from their Revolution Wind project offshore up the West Passage of Narragansett Bay, under the Jamestown Bridge to Quonset Point. The purpose of the meeting was to alert mariners about the project, specifically when and where construction activities will be occurring.

Winnie Hagen, the Wickford Yacht Club's seminar organizer, kicked off the meeting by welcoming members and guests: “This workshop is part of a continuing series of educational and informative seminars we will be conducting for members.” 

She then handed the meeting over to David Lussier, president of the Better Bay Alliance. “We are not for offshore wind, or against offshore wind," Lussier said, "but merely here to promote mariner safety on the Bay. And to share our new website software called Live Chart that allows mariners to track all kinds of boating activities on the Bay, including construction projects like this one.”  Visit https://betterbayalliance.org/live-chart-better-bay-alliance/ for Live Chart.

Claire Hobson and Ross Pearsall of Ørsted’s Marine Affairs Division shared highlights of the Revolution Wind project, specifically the West Passage cable installation project, which will be conducted this fall and winter.

Changes to Local Notice to Mariners and Light Lists

The U.S. Coast Guard Navigation Center announced this week upcoming changes to the Local Notice to Mariners, or LNM, and the Light List, as part of its efforts to modernize and improve the accessibility, accuracy and overall user experience for mariners and other stakeholders.

The LNM and the Light List are used to relate current navigational changes and important navigational notices.

The Coast Guard plans to transition from using NOAA Paper Chart Numbers, editions and dates for disseminating Marketing Safety Information to using Official Waterway Names. The LNM and Light List data will be available in a geospatial format, which will allow users to visualize information interactively on a chart.

The transition to the modernized LNM and Light List platform (the Navigation Center website) will be completed by Monday, Sept. 30.  Visit the Navigation Center at Home | Navigation Center (uscg.gov) .

Where’s the bite?

Striped bass, bluefish, bonito .  “The striped bass bite has been hit or miss from shore with metal lures [that mimic mullet] and bucktails working," said Steven Orefice of Watch Hill Outfitters in Westerly. "The bonito bite continues to be strong, too.” Oliver Zannini of Quaker Lane Bait & Tackle in North Kingstown reported: “Customers haven’t been getting out much this week with rough seas but those fishing are catching some striped bass and bluefish in Narragansett Bay as well as along the coastal shore.” Declan O’Donnell of Breachway Bait & Tackle in Charlestown said: “The fall striped bass season is off to a great start, some great nights and mornings across the south shore. The amount of bait is off the charts and a great mix of sizes for bass. From 10-inch school striped bass up to 40-inch fish. Bonito are still plentiful popping up very randomly.” "East End" Eddie Doherty, Cape Cod Canal fishing expert and author, reported: “Fish continue to devour bait in preparation for the southern migration. I caught a fat fish that I eyeballed to be about 27 inches, but the expanded girth caused the optical illusion of a shorter length, which really measured out to 30 inches." 

Fluke (summer flounder), black sea bass, scup and cod.  The black sea bass bite is still good, however, the summer flounder (fluke) bite is starting to fade. Angler Kevin Fetzer of East Greenwich fished with Joe Klinger of South Kingstown at Austin Hollow off Jamestown and boated a 24-inch, 5.2-pound fluke. “All the other fish we caught were undersized, including several fluke, scup and black sea bass," Fetzer said. “Fluke and seabass fishing is starting to taper off,” O’Donnell said. “Black sea bass and scup fishing continues to be outstanding along the southern coastal shore," Orefice said. "And a big treat this month — anglers are catching keeper cod fish on rock piles and wrecks close to shore.”

Tautog fishing is hit or miss for anglers.  Those finding fish seem to be in lower water where there is water movement.

Tuna. Tuna fishing continues to be good. “The bite south of Block Island and Montauk is good with anglers hooking up with 60-inch school bluefin tuna jigging and chucking,” Orefice reported.

Dave Monti holds a master captain’s license and charter fishing license. He serves on a variety of boards and commissions and has a consulting business that focuses on clean oceans, habitat preservation, conservation, renewable energy and fisheries related issues and clients.

The Green Blue Announces Launch of 2024-25 University Sailing Sustainability Challenge with new sponsorship by Royal Thames Yacht Club

19 th September 2024 – The Green Blue is thrilled to announce the launch of the 2024-25 University Sailing Sustainability Challenge (USSC) , beginning on 1 st September 2024 and running until February 2025.

Since its inception in 2015, the USSC has encouraged University Sailing Clubs (USCs) across the UK to adopt more sustainable practices, and this year marks a significant milestone. The challenge welcomes the Royal Thames Yacht Club as its new sponsor, bringing fresh energy and support to the challenge.

In addition to this new partnership, the 2024-25 Challenge introduces a revamped judging criterion, allowing clubs to be even more creative and flexible in their approach to sustainability.

Supported by the British Universities Sailing Association (BUSA), the USSC was created to help University Sailing Clubs (USCs) across the UK become more sustainable. Clubs participate in the challenge by appointing a Sustainability Officer who in turn will commit to The Green Blue Boating Pledge . They then select areas of focus from eight categories, including reducing waste, protecting biodiversity, and combating climate change.

Over the course of the challenge, clubs, and their Sustainability Officers complete tasks within their four chosen categories with the aim of submitting evidence of their work to the USSC judging panel.

An exciting opportunity for clubs and students to really show what they can do; the panel awards all clubs who participate and complete their tasks with an official USSC certificate of achievement. The judging panel also score all submissions with the top four participants being selected to receive a prize at the USSC Awards Ceremony, held during the prestigious RYA Dinghy & Watersports Show in February 2025.

“The younger generation of sailors are the future of the sport and it’s amazing how many of them are passionate about sustainability. By getting involved in the USSC, it’s a great way for individuals and university clubs to not only earn recognition but also set an example for the wider boating community. The work they do can make a real difference in protecting the environment, both in the present and for years to come.” said Kate Fortnam, Campaign Manager at The Green Blue.  

Last year an impressive 14 universities successfully completed the Challenge, showcasing their dedication to fostering sustainable values within their clubs. This year, with the support of the Royal Thames Yacht Club, The Green Blue anticipate even greater participation and impact.

“At the Royal Thames Yacht Club, we are committed to the adoption of sustainable practices both within the Club and on the water, and as such are delighted to be supporting the excellent University Sailing Sustainability Challenge. Our young people are the future, and it is critical that future is sustainable. May we thank all participants in this most worthy of causes.” said Richard Powell, Vice Commodore at the Royal Thames Yacht Club.

“We, the university community, benefit hugely from being a part of then the green blue challenge. Through the challenge we push ourselves, our clubs, and the clubs we sail at, to be more sustainable and to look at the ways in which the sailing community can support the protection of our waterways and our planet” said Amelie Sadler, Vice Chair at BUSA – British Universities Sailing Association.

The best golf clubs in moscow: luxury, exclusivity, and entertainment.

By Walter Raymond

February 24, 2015

• The Best Golf Clubs in…

In Russia, the western concept of building architecturally beautiful golf courses filled with modern and luxurious amenities has found fertile ground. What was considered a frivolous pastime during the time of the Soviets has become the latest trend for the stylish set. These days, there are countless options around Moscow to practice golf, polo, ski, yachting, and other sports alongside 5-star hotels, luxurious country houses, and magnificent villas.

The game of golf is a sport that requires passion and expertise. It is also part of a culture that considers this pastime a synonym of social prestige and exclusivity. In recent years, the new Russian elite has turned to golf as a vehicle of integration in the era of globalization. Golf courses are also meeting and socializing spaces where Muscovite tycoons can relax and also seal business deals.

Golf Courses in Russia

The Moscow Country Club, Pestovo Golf & Yacht Club, Tseleevo Golf & Polo Club, and Zavidovo Golf Club, PGA National Russia are some of the most exclusive and elegant golf courses in Russia. Some of them have made it to the list of Top 15 golf clubs in the world, a source of great prestige for the country.

Moscow Country Club Moscow Country Club

The first 18-hole golf course built in Russia, Moscow Country Club, hosts the exclusive PGA European Tour. Located just eight miles from the city center, this luxurious facility was created by architect Robert Trent Jones Jr . The design takes advantage of a typical Russian birch and spruce forest to provide a natural environment of extraordinary beauty.

Pestovo Golf & Yacht Club Pestovo Golf & Yacht Club

The Pestovo Golf & Yacht Club is 18 miles from the heart of Moscow, close to historical monuments from the 17th and 18th centuries. Designed by famed architects Paul and Dave Thomas , this 18-hole course is part of a complex that includes a yacht club, an equestrian center, and a health and wellness facility. Pestovo Golf & Yacht Club is Russia’s version of a classic country club with multiple attractions.

Tseleevo Golf & Polo Club Tseleevo Golf & Polo Club

This park is among the best in Eastern Europe and was awarded the 2014 World Golf Award as the best golf course in Russia. Located 25 miles from Moscow, it is part of a vast complex featuring an 18-hole golf course, designed by Jack Nicklaus , a polo club and a mountain ski club with four tracks. The design combines classic Scottish, Alpine, and English features in a dreamy landscape.

Zavidovo Golf Club, PGA National Russia Zavidovo Golf Club, PGA National Russia

Less than 60 miles from Moscow, this golf course with a definite Scottish design is the only one in Russia recognized as a PGA (Professional Golfers’ Association) from Britain and Ireland. Located in an ecologically pristine area on the banks of the Volga River, the Zavidovo Golf Club embodies the spirit and appearance of the legendary Scottish golf courses. Its many springs and streams, hills, forests, swamps and lakes justify its reputation as a very demanding circuit. Last year, it entered the exclusive club of the 15 best golf courses in the world.   ■
