Australian Sailing CBH Rating

The Australian Sports Boat Association has adopted CBH Rating run by Australian Sailing as its primary rating system. The changed from Yacht Rating Services Australia's SMS Rating to Australian Sailing's CBH Rating was approved by the ASBA Members at a Special general Meeting on the 24th November 2022 as the members agreed that the CBH rating system would suit the changing needs of the ASBA.

The Class Based Handicap (CBH) formula has now been updated to align it with World Sailing’s Equipment Rules definitions and remedy some other previously identified issues. This change will ensure the rating is more inclusive, allowing a wider range of Trailable Yacht and Sports Boat Classes access to a CBH rating.

As a result of the changes to the model and definitions the Trailable Yacht & Sports Boat Rule has been amended to reflect these changes and has now become the CBH Rating System.

In addition, the National Committee has been disbanded and the CBH ratings function will be administered internally by Australian Sailing staff. Australian Sailing will also coordinate the hosting of the National Championships, in line with the way other Australian Sailing events are managed.

The new Rating System is intended to

• Provide a National System for even and fair racing on handicap in a mixed fleet of Trailable Yachts and / or Sports Boats • Ensure transparency across the rating system • Allow Trailable Yacht and Sports Boat owners to gain a new CBH at any time of the year • Support Australian Sailing in its work to promote Trailable Yacht and Sports Boat racing activities within the states and territories and at national level.

ASBA LTP Handicap

The Australian Sports Boat Association has adopted ASBA LTP as a secondary handicapping system. ASBA LTP is a performance handicap system developed by Top Yacht. A boat’s ASBA LTP Handicap will adjust over the course of an ASBA regatta and recalculated after each ASBA regatta and displayed ready for the next regatta.

The ASBA Handicaps are based on the long-term performance of the Sports Boat. If a Sports Boat does not have a ASBA LTP Handicap a starting handicap will be allocated be the ASBA committee. This handicap is applied to the elapsed time of the boat to obtain its corrected time for the race.

The ASBA has seen a need to create a performance handicap system for the fleet and working with Top Yacht the ASBA LTP Handicap was best suited as it does not just use results over a few races. The long term considers results over a longer period of time to make the best average handicap. This takes out the highs and lows that some performance handicaps can have. The Australian Sports Boat Association's committee discusses feedback from members and presents this to the Top Yacht’s Handicapping Committee to get the best out of the handicap system. A list of boats and handicaps have been compiled by Top Yacht. Boats and their handicaps get added and updated by Top Yacht as they sail with the fleet.

AUSTRALIAN TRAILABLE YACHT AND SPORTS BOAT RULE

JANUARY 2013

1.0 OBJECTIVE 1.01 The objective of the Australian Trailable Yacht and Sports Boat Rule (ATYSBR), hereinafter called “the Rule”, is to provide a national system for even and fair racing on handicap in a mixed fleet of trailable yachts and/or sports boats, resulting in racing success being primarily determined by the skills of the crew. 1.02 The Rule will also provide a basis for the conduct of national and state-level championships for trailable yachts and sports boats, as well as for club and other events.

2.0 DEFINITIONS 2.01 Class Based Handicap: The Class Based Handicap (CBH) is an allocated performance factor applicable to an individual trailable yacht or sports boat, or a class of trailable yachts or sports boats, to achieve the objective at Section 1 when sailing in a mixed fleet. 2.02 Trailable Yacht or Sports Boat: For the purpose of this Rule a trailable yacht or sports boat is a monohull, ballasted yacht with a retractable keel , being of 9.40 metres LOA or less, which can be transported on the road on the same trailer used to launch and retrieve it without the assistance of external equipment or detachment from the towing vehicle and without requiring a special road permit. 2.03 Standard Trailable Yacht or Standard Sports Boat: A Standard Trailable Yacht or Standard Sports Boat is a trailable yacht or sports boat having a cabin of solid construction enclosing at least two functional berths. The cabin shall have minimum headroom measured vertically and continuously over the total area of one square metre of the cabin sole with hatches, pop tops etc closed off.  For craft less than 6.00 m LOA - 0.90 m  For craft of 6.00 m LOA or longer - 1.05 m 2.04 Open Trailable Yacht or Open Sports Boat: An Open Trailable Yacht or Open Sports Boat is a trailable yacht or sports boat that does not necessarily conform to the requirements for a Standard Trailable Yacht or Standard Sports Boat. There shall be a cockpit and provision for stowage of sails , equipment and crew effects below deck, except that: -  Berths are not required.  The bow section of the boat shall be decked in at least level with or higher than the gunnels, with the aftermost edge of the deck being no more than 100 mm forward of the leading edge of the centreboard case.

ATYSBR JANUARY 2013 3.0 GENERAL 3.01 This Rule shall be known as the Australian Trailable Yacht and Sports Boat Rule (ATYSBR), otherwise referred to in this document as the ”Rule”. 3.02 This Rule shall come into effect on 1 August 2010. 3.03 The Custodian of this Rule shall be Yachting Australia (YA). 3.04 The Rule shall be used in conjunction with the Racing Rules of Sailing and the rules of individual class associations. In the event of a conflict, interpretation of these rules is the responsibility of the Custodian to ensure the intention of fair and even racing is upheld. 3.05 It is not the purpose of this Rule to restrict any individual yacht class from development within their own class rules. 3.06 This Rule is intended to support each Member Yachting Association (MYA) in its work to promote trailable yacht and sports boat racing activities within their own state or territory and at the national level. 3.07 In this Rule the word `shall` is mandatory and the word `may` permissive. 3.08 YA and its subordinate bodies shall not be held liable for any accident or injury occurring in a race organised under the ATYSBR.

4.0 VARIATIONS 4.01 This Rule shall only be amended in accordance with YA policy.

5.0 CLASS BASED HANDICAP 5.01 A CBH shall be allocated by the Custodian, based on the information relating to the basic dimensions of an individual boat or class of boat provided by a measurer appointed by an MYA and shall be recorded in Appendix `A` of this Rule. 5.02 Any change to the details provided by a boat or class at Section 5.01, upon which its CBH was calculated, shall be advised to the Custodian by an MYA appointed measurer and the Appendix `A` shall be amended to include the new or changed CBH. 5.03 Where the specifications of a boat or a class are altered from those upon which its CBH was calculated, it shall immediately notify its MYA appointed measurer and shall be re-measured for review of its CBH by the Custodian. 5.04 A designer, manufacturer or owner shall comply with the spirit and intent of the ATYSBR and shall not seek means of artificially reducing an allocated CBH or seek to increase performance without a corresponding increase in CBH. 5.05 The CBH is for racing events. The CBH does not give any concessions for additional equipment or fittings that exceed those required by the Category of Event in YA Special Regulations Part 1 as specified by the Organising Authority of an event, or for the age of any boat. 5.06 The CBHs listed in Appendix `A` are regarded as the National CBH of any Class of Trailable Yacht or Sports Boat. These CBHs shall be used for the YA National Championship. 5.07 Each boat’s or class’s classification and CBH shall be reviewed annually by the Custodian, at least 3 months prior to each YA National Championship, and posted 60 days prior to the event. 5.08 The Custodian may undertake a review of the CBH applying to any class, or boat, on the request of two or more MYAs. Any revised CBH shall remain interim until the next annual review. 5.09 Any alteration referred to at Section 5.03, or breach of that Section that is decided by a protest committee, shall be advised to the Custodian, which shall then amend Appendix `A` and notify each MYA for distribution to Organising Authorities.

ATYSBR JANUARY 2013 5.10 The method of obtaining a CBH as set out in Appendix `B` shall be included in the annual review provided for at Section 5.06. 5.11 Types of CBH  Affiliated one-design class (YA affiliated class association with registered Class Rules).  Non-affiliated one design (no affiliated class association).  Individually modified one design or one of a kind (OAK).  Provisional handicap until reliable performance data is obtained.

6.0 NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP 6.01 The YA National Trailable Yacht and Sports Boat Championship shall be conducted using this Rule. 6.02 The eligibility requirements for the YA National Championship shall be as set out in Section 7.0 .

APPENDIX `B` INFORMATION FOR OWNERS

INTRODUCTION Trailable Yachts and Sports Boats use the Class Based Handicapping system (CBH). The Class Based Handicap was conceived by the Victorian Yachting Council (VYC) Trailable Yacht Division, now Yachting Victoria (YV), in 1985 to cater for open fleet racing of differing classes of trailable monohull yachts.

The CBH rating uses a system derived from the Junior Offshore Group (JOG) measurement system. Performance information and empirical evidence provide a de-rating factor, which varies between classes (even similar types); due to the inability of the measurement system to take into account subtle variations in things such as hull form.

The CBH for each class of yacht is set such that only a well sailed yacht, in top racing condition, would have an equal chance of winning a series of races over varying conditions against equally well sailed yachts from other classes.

Where club racing consists of trailable yachts and sports boats, sailing with “off the beach” boats it is recommended that back calculated personal handicaps are used and that the CBH system is used as a starting point for handicappers to rate the different boats.

It is therefore recommended that in club mixed fleet TY & SB racing and at National, State and Class Championships the CBH system is used. The elapsed time for a race is multiplied by CBH to obtain the corrected time.

APPLYING FOR A CBH Detailed, accurate measurement data will be required to obtain a CBH. This technical information is usually obtained from the designer/builder.

To obtain a CBH an owner/builder/designer or class association must: -

. Submit an application on the prescribed form provided by the Measurer of the applicable MYA, along with the class rules . Submit the appropriate measurement fee to the Measurer of the applicable MYA . Make available the boat for measurement . To ensure the manufacture of class yachts complies with the original specification as supplied to the Custodian, the first boat built after five (5) years of receipt of the CBH certificate, or the first boat built by a new manufacturer shall be measured as if applying for a new CBH.

APPLYING FOR RE-MEASUREMENT Any alteration or modification to a trailable yacht or sports boat, or its equipment that does not accord with class rules will require re-measurement and the re-allocation of a suitable Provisional CBH

Modified boats are required to carry a `MOD` symbol on the mainsail next to the class insignia.

ATYSBR JANUARY 2013 MEASUREMENT ACRONYMS

LOA Length Over All (mm) LPG Longest perpendicular of largest genoa LWL Length of Water Line (mm) (Luff to Clew at a right angle to the luff) B Rated Beam (mm) P Mainsail Hoist (mm) MASS Total Mass ( in KGS) BLM Batten Length Maximum (mm) BM Maximum Beam (mm) E Mainsail Foot Length (mm) I Fore Triangle Height (mm) EPF Effective Propeller Factor SL Spinnaker Luff (mm) KF Keel Factor J Base of Fore Triangle (mm) OAML Over All Mast length (mm) SPL Spinnaker Pole Length (mm) SMW Spinnaker Maximum Width (mm)

PREPARATION OF YACHT FOR MEASUREMENT . All of the above items must be measured for a handicap to be produced.

. In order to determine waterline length , it may be necessary for the boat to be floated in its racing trim. Briefly, everything required for racing shall be in the locations where it will be stowed or used while racing.

. This will not include batteries, anchors and chain, navigational instruments and cooking appliances (unless required under the Class rules). No food, clothing, stores, toolkits PFD’s or additional ballast, etc. shall be aboard. Fuel and water tanks shall be empty.

. Dimensional bands shall be painted on the mast and boom in a contrasting colour (“black bands”).

. Spinnaker poles shall be in the normal stowage position.

. All sails used whilst racing shall be stowed below deck on the cabin sole and not forward of the mast.

. All mattresses, cushions and pillows as required by class rules shall be stowed in their normal positions.

. Centreboards, swing keels and drop keels shall be in the fully lowered position.

. If the yacht motor is an outboard motor , it shall be fitted in the operating position.

. The yacht shall be rigged completely and ready to sail.

. The yacht’s bow shall not be depressed through lying to a mooring and the bilges shall be dry.

. Major hull measurements may be taken ashore, with the yacht approximately level.

. The longitudinal trim should be established from freeboard measurements taken from the yacht afloat in measurement trim. Large overhangs may be taken into account in assessing waterline length or de-rating factor.

ATYSBR JANUARY 2013 . For the measurement of fore-triangle height, (the “I” measurement), the distance shall be measured from the midpoint of a line taken athwart ships, through the sheer of the hull directly below the mast, to the intersection of the forestay with the mast.

. The weight of the boat (mass) shall be measured with the boat in racing trim. It will not include the fuel, anchors, chains, and safety equipment (unless required by the Class Rules), food, clothing, stores, tool kits, etc. but shall include the motor. Measurement of Mass will be determined during the measurement process by use of the applicable MYA’s weighing equipment.

. The applicant for measurement will be required to sign the measurement certificate and a declaration as to the validity of all measurements listed on the certificate. Subsequent infringement of any of the measurements may lead to disqualification in a particular race(s) in which the infringement(s) occurred and any other previous races as may be determined, resulting in possible withdrawal of the CBH to prevent further race entries.

. Supplementary measurement information / class rules, in accordance with the attached guidelines, will be required before a handicap will be provided.

. Where no class association exists for a particular design, the MYA may assist the owner, if necessary, to prepare this information.

. In addition to undertaking measurements, which are the basis of the handicap formula, checking the measurements against those contained in the class rules / supplementary measurement information questionnaire shall be required.

Yachting Australia, an MYA or any of its members, officers or servants will not except liability for any damage how so ever incurred during the entire measurement process.

The Measurer, APPLICABLE MYA

ATYSBR JANUARY 2013 APPENDIX `D` MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES

1. It is the purpose of the CBH to encourage, where possible, the rating of boats as a class rather than individually, although this does not preclude the measurement and rating of “one off” designs.

2. Applications for measurement and CBH calculation should come from the class association, or the manufacturer or his agent and a set of class rules should be lodged with the application for measurement. The owners of “one off” designs should submit their applications in as much detail as possible and provide similar information as that required for class boats.

3. Applications should be directed to the MYA Administration Officer on the prescribed form and shall be accompanied by the prescribed fee, as determined by the MYA.

4. The MYA will allocate the task to an accredited Trailable Yacht and Sports Boat Measurer. The MYA will advise the Applicant of the name, address and telephone number of the Measurer.

5. A mutually satisfactory appointment will be made between the Applicant and Measurer.

6. On completion of measurement, the Measurer will forward the data to the Custodian for calculation and preparation of the measurement certificate.

7. Four (4) copies of the measurement certificate will be distributed as follows:

. Two copies to the applicant. One of the copies must be signed (preferably on behalf of the Class Association) and returned to the MYA. . One copy to the Custodian. . One copy to the Measurer

8. By signing a copy of the measurement certificate and returning it to the MYA, the applicant expresses his acceptance of the work.

9. The application fee may be determined annually.

10. Part-measurements and checking of alterations must be applied for in the same way as a full measurement and a measurement fee (up to the full amount) paid.

11. All new measurements and CBH results will be circulated by the Custodian to all MYAs for distribution to Organising Authorities.

12. All handicaps issued are “Provisional” for 12 months or until the next annual CBH review (whichever is sooner) except that a boat may remain on a “Provisional” handicap until such time as sufficient relevant performance data has been obtained. Provisional handicaps are subject to adjustment, upwards or downwards, at the discretion of the Custodian.

13. If travel incurred is more than 50 km from the capital city GPO, or from the Measurer’s home address, the Measurer shall be paid an additional $15.00 per 50 km or part thereof. Payments will be made by the MYA when measurement certificates are issued.

Public comment invited on CBH

Australian Sailing is looking at reviewing two important elements of how CBH is run and offered to Trailable Yachts and Sports Boats. These are the ratings themselves, how the numbers stack up, and the rule that underpins their use. Boat owners and clubs with an interest in the CBH rule for rating these fleets are invited to provide feedback on the ratings and proposed amendments to the rule.

To provide feedback on the CBH Ratings:

Consider the CBH Rating Lists on this page . These are important because they show the CBH for each boat or class and the measurements used to calculate it’s rating.
Then complete this survey to submit your feedback. We are asking for specific information in relation to rated data and examples of results and conditions that provide context to your feedback.

To provide feedback on proposed amendments to the CBH Rule:

Read the proposed amendments in this document .
Then complete this survey to submit your feedback. We are asking for your views on every proposed amendment to the CBH Rule.

The window for feedback closes on 14 December 2023 which should allow ample time for class associations, clubs and boat owners to look at the issues and provide feedback.

Changes won’t be rushed through; we expect that no changes will come into effect until 1 July 2024.

For information about CBH click here . IRC and ORC ratings are on this page .

August was originally named

Sextilis because it was the sixth

month in the original ten-month

Roman calendar. About 700 B.C.E. it

became the eighth month when January

and February were added by King

Pompilius, who also gave it 29 days.

Julius Ceasar added two days when he

created the Julian Calendar in 45

B.C.E. giving it its modern length of 31

days. In 8 B.C.E. it was renamed in

honor of Augustus, (who did not take a day from

February as some theories would have you believe) He

chose this month to take his name rather than his birth

month – which was traditional – as a mark of honor to

the defeated Queen Cleopatra, the last ruler of Egypt,

this being her birth month.

With a history like that, August has to be special, a

long month in the heart of summer in Marina del Rey.

June gloom is over, Sunset Series is seeing the top

boats in each class competing for the coveted Marilyn

Ritchie Trophy, Catalina will welcome CYC back for

the Family Cruise, and the Junior Sailing program is in

its second session where the kids are having a great

time while learning the fine points of sailing and

sailboat racing.

Out on Santa Monica Bay, August will bring two

exciting events to CYC this year. At the beginning of

the month the Laser National Championship will see

more than 120 of these nimble Olympic-class boats

competing (coming from U.S., Canada, Mexico, and

Virgin Islands). Regatta Chairman S/C Frank Glynn

(no slouch himself when it comes to Laser racing) will

put the competitors through their paces with races

Thursday through Sunday, August 4 - 7. Both standard

Laser and the Laser Radials will compete.

Then at the end of the month, the

Martin 242 North American

Championship will see our strong local

fleet pitting themselves against

challengers from the rest of our

continent. Regatta Chairman Mary

Stuyvesant plans a start clinic and

practice races on August 25, before

the actual races August 26-28.

Looking farther afield, my

Commodores Cruise starts August 13

2/BREEZE AUGUST 2011

From The Commodore

Commodore

Ann Ach

from Istanbul, Turkey, where we board

the fabulous Windstar for seven days of

gorgeous Mediterranean weather as we

visit historic archeological sites at

Ephesus and Rhodes, the resort seaport

Bodrum, and enjoy the beautiful islands

Santorini and Mykonos before docking

at Piraeus (port of Athens), Greece.

Many of the participants will start with

a three-day tour in Istanbul, and finish

with two days in Athens. This Cruise

promises to provide incomparable memories.

Back in Southern California, the Family Cruise,

hosted by Chairmen Keri and Bill Wofford, takes us

back to Corsair Yacht Club on Catalina Island on

August 19-21. Last year’s event was a resounding

success and this year should be even better. Emerald

Bay is a great setting for anything from scuba

diving to hiking or just relaxing with a good book.

The evenings offer a chance to gather around the

grills and fire pit to the share the day’s activities

with both old friends and new.

Looking for a local, relaxing, and fun evening?

The Pool Party on August 14 features a “burn your

own meat” barbecue with music and friends. Check

it out.

The Junior Awards Banquet (August 18) is the

culmination of the Junior Summer program, and the

top sportsmen and racers will be honored. More

then 90 Juniors are participating in this program.

Each year the program draws kids that join the yearround

race team, which compete in Optis, Lasers,

Radials, CFJs, and 420s. A few standout Juniors

may be awarded one of the Club’s perpetual

trophies designated for youth sailors (Detroit

Highpoint, Rindge Racing Achievement Award,

Roosevelt Seamanship Award, or the

Zimmer Sportsmanship Award).

Although the banquet marks the end of

the Summer Program, it also marks

the beginning of a new season of

High School and Club Regattas.

Young sailors are the lifeblood of

our Club and they deserve our

thanks and admiration.

I hope this year at CYC brings

the sun to you.

Adedicated group of 52 CYC

members and guests welcomed

the 4th of July with a rousing

celebration lunch at El Torito

Restaurant. We paraded across the

marina with decorated dinghies in a

flotilla led by Pati and George Etter,

who had made arrangements for us to

tie up in a slip just outside the

restaurant. S/C John Isaksen waved a

huge American flag while standing

precariously in his dinghy while

smaller flags and patriotic bows and

ribbons waved in the breeze from

other dinghies.

Once inside, the happy group

greeted one another, each admiring the

others patriotic get-up. The

complimentary margaritas flowed

freely as the group surveyed the ample

special menu to choose just the right

entree, while overindulging on the

never-ending bowls of chips and dip.

Midway through lunch, our songbird,

Lola Haag, led us through two

energetic rounds of God Bless

America. I’m sure our enthusiastic

singers could be heard all over the

marina as others in the restaurant and

the wait staff joined in.

After lunch we again paraded

around the marina led, this time, by a

fire-boat with a steady stream of water

announcing our arrival, which had

been arranged by Lowell Safir, a guest

at our lunch. Others joined the group

and we got many thumbs up and even

applause from boaters enjoying the

beautiful day in their slips.

Many thanks to my committee of

Maureen and Bill Tieman, and Nancy

Sogg for their help in passing out the

goodies at the guest dock, and again to

George Etter for arranging the slip for

us. Thanks also to photographers Pati

Etter, Carol Watkins, and Jaynee Eitel.

Look at the pictures. They tell the

story of a happy, enthusiastic and

patriotic group having fun celebrating

the 4th of July.

PADDLE TENNIS

Every Tuesday and Thursday

10 a.m. to noon

Birgitte Keld and Diane Manzella,

Jeanne Pieper

has returned this

month to paddle

tennis after a tenyear

absence.

A member of

CYC for more than

33 years, Jeanne

and her husband,

Jim, have owned

many boats, the

last being a 50-foot

sail, on which they

spent several years

vacationing in the Isthmus and other

coves in Catalina. Unfortunately for

Jeanne and Jim, they sold their boat on

November 3, 1993, the infamous date of

the Malibu fire. They never imagined

that while they were closing the sale of

their boat, their home would be

consumed in flames. Jeanne reminisces

that while staying at the Marina del Rey

Ritz Carlton, they were served,

complements of the house, charred

salmon while watching their home burn.

Homeless, but undaunted, Jeanne

and Jim moved forward with their lives

with only the clothes on their backs, the

support of their loved ones, and the

kindness and thoughtfulness of Jeanne’s

students in an inner-city school. Jeanne

said the children gave her whatever they

could find around their homes including,

cereal, blankets and clothes. She added

that the experience was life-changing.

Most of us are just getting to know

Jeanne, but clearly she is a woman of

persistence and stamina, a true survivor.

The CYCWA paddle team is a very

fun group of women who love being

together on the courts. For those new to

the game, we have extra rackets for you

to try before you purchase one.

We encourage you to come and join

this wonderful group of social ladies.

Whether your interests lie in getting

some exercise, meeting new friends, or

just getting some fresh air, please join

us every Tuesday and Thursday.

MAH JONGG

Thursdays 11 a.m.

Susan Allan, Chairman

CYC’s own mah jongg maven,

Susan Allan, follows the official

National Mah Jongg League rules and

regulations.

This strategic tile game is great fun

and will keep your mind active. If you

already play mah jongg you can also

help teach the members who are new to

the game. Just come and have some

fun! Questions? Call Susan Allan.

UPCOMING EVENTS

Doheny Mansion Tour

Tuesday, October 4, 2011

If you haven’t been to this

magnificent historic mansion, you won’t

want to miss this guided tour. The bus

will leave CYC promptly at 9 a.m.

$38 includes bus/docent fees.

More detailed information will

Cats like Janet leave paw prints in our hearts.

As you may know, a couple of weeks ago Janet

was put to sleep due to her suffering from cancer.

Thank you to those of you who were

responsible for Janet’s good life at the

courts…donating food, making sure she was fed,

keeping the area clean and stroking her when she

allowed us to show her affection, and a very warm

and sincere thank you of appreciation to CYC

member Rick Gunderson who cared for Janet in the

later stages of her life.

Janet was the paddle tennis mascot for the last

15 years and we all miss her.

Car Rally

and Car Show

CYC’s 3rd Roar

by the Shore!

By S/C Anne Sacks

There was no June gloom at this event. The

CYC Car Rally and Show was a day of

driving, test drives, viewing, camaraderie,

and barbecue with the best SoCal summer

weather.

Rally car number one left the CYC gate by

10 a.m. on a course up the coast to the Santa

Monica Mountains through Malibu. All drivers

and navigators returned to the Club by noon for a

lunch and awards presentation on the CYC lawn.

All exclaimed that the route was incredibly scenic.

The winners were as follows: First Place, Bill

Lamm and Yvonne Sininger; Second Place, Paul

Mychnic and Jim Ach; Third Place, Randy and

Dawn Sprout. Seven cars in total rallied. The

other teams were Scott Jarema and Paul Ivy, John

Marshall and Gary Willis, Dave and Diane Lewis

and Holt and Halaine Rose. Port Captain Rick

Turner, who is a national car rally champion, and

wife Ann, ran the rally event for the third year.

Hoorah to the Turners and all!

There was plenty to do for members and their

guests who were not in the rally. Foreign,

domestic, vintage, classic, and major-emphasis

cars were on show at the Club. Sylvia McArthur

Tyminski brought her beautiful 1931 Ford

Victoria, now fully restored with the assistance of

Ed Firth. She was joined by friends, Willie and

Darlene Duncan, who showed their beautifully

restored 1931 Ford Sports Coupe. Norman Harris

displayed two Porsches. His own awardingwinning

Porsche 911 and another 911 he restored

for Carlene Murphy. Holt and Halaine Rose’s

Porsche 968, 1992 “Twilight Blue Metallic”

Cabriolet which was one of 2,248 imported to the

U.S.

This was the third year that CYC member Joe

Simpkin arranged for “Evergreen Sustainable

Technology” vehicles, Toyota, Lexus, Volkswagen

and Audi, from LAcarGUY to be displayed and

available for test drives. It was a day of sharing,

looking, and driving.

Attendees enjoyed a barbecue lunch and

music by Hugo on the lawn area.

The planning committee, Chairman S/C Anne

Sacks, P/C Rick Turner, Ann Turner and Power

Fleet Chairman Dawn Sprout thank all Rally and

Car Show participants, CYC catering,

maintenance, and management for their support of

the day!

Leiter Cup

By SIMONE STAFF

This year, the Women’s Jr.

Singlehanded National

Championships, (aka Leiter

Cup) was held in San Francisco

Bay, at Richmond Yacht Club

June 27 – July 1. Overall, there

were 58 boats that competed. The

whole six-hour drive there I was

very nervous, because San

Francisco is usually very windy.

Leiter Cup consists of two

days of clinic and three days of

racing. The first day of the clinic, it

was very light, and shifty

conditions—not the sort of breeze I

was looking forward to at all. The

second day of the clinic, the breeze

picked up in the afternoon to a

steady 14 knots. This was the type

of breeze I was expecting for San

Francisco. The first day of racing

there was absolutely no wind at all,

and it was pouring rain. Everyone

was soaking wet and freezing, and

wanted to go in. We were able to

get off one race before they

postponed the rest of the races for

that day. I didn’t do so well in that

race, because I didn’t follow the

shifts. The next day the wind came

back up in the afternoon, and we

were all having a blast! I paid

more attention to the shifts, and did

fairly well. In the morning, when it

wasn’t that windy, my best race of

the day was a 7th. When the wind

came up, I struggled to keep the

boat flat, but I tried to work my

hardest and hiked really hard. The

last day was the windiest yet. By 2

o’clock the breeze was a steady 20

knots, and a little under half the

fleet had gone in for the day. I was

in survival mode with my boat, my

only goal was to cross the finish

line. I was tired, wet, cold, and

exhausted, but I tried very hard and

got a 15th. Overall it was a very

fun regatta, and I learned about

how to sail in different kinds of

breeze. Overall, I ended up in 17

and am looking forward to Leiter

Cup again next year in Chicago.

“I SEA YOU” Dock Party

AUGUST 2011 BREEZE/17

Atalented group of chaimen have led us through some very

fun events recently at CYC! A big thank you to S/C

Anne Sacks for being Chairman of the Car Show & Rally

and the barbecue lunch on the grass. As one looked across the

channel, the day was gorgeous! Port Captain Rick Turner

designed a beautiful road-rally through the hills of Malibu.

Thanks also to Ann Turner for all her help with the event.

Penelope Cornwall came up with the idea of “I SEA YOU”

dock party. Sporting very silly sunglasses, a large crowd

gathered at the dock to munch on goodies and drink punch

spiked with vodka. Thanks also to Scott Jarema for adding

music to the party.

History continued with the very fun 4th of July Dinghy

Cruise to El Torito. Thank you to Don Rothenberg for being

Chairman of this event once again. (See article on page 4.)

From The

Manager

By MICHELE

UNDERWOOD

We are halfway through the

summer, but don’t dismay

– there’s a lot of fun still

coming your way! On August 14, we

have our first CYC Pool Party with a

“Burn Your Own Meat BBQ.” We

will have games for the kids in the

pool followed by a barbecue on the

patio. You bring the entrée and we

will provide soup, salad, and

dessert, along with a full bar. It will

be like a Friday night on Ballast

Point, except we don’t have to go to

Catalina.

We will continue with our third

installment of our Pool Patio

Cocktail Parties on August 19. This

month we will enjoy complimentary

rum tasting, along with some music,

dancing and conversation around the fire pits. Our yearly wine

tasting extravaganza on the front lawn will have an Italian

theme on August 26. This event gets bigger and better each year

with dozens of great wines to try, and delicious food too. All of

these events are great opportunities to invite friends to see how

much fun it is to be a member at CYC.

We have two championship regattas in August coming to

CYC. We will be welcoming back the Laser and Laser Radial

Classes to compete in the 2011 Laser U.S. Nationals on Santa

Monica Bay the first week of the month. Regatta Chairman S/C

Frank Glynn has put together an experienced Race Committee.

With the support of the CYC staff, it should be a great week for

the racers. During this regatta we will have no Sunset Series on

Wednesday August 3. The last weekend of the month, we will

be hosting the Martin 242 North American Championship. CYC

has a number of competitors in this fleet, so come and support

our sailors whether it’s volunteering for Race Committee or

cheering them on when they pick up their trophies. Regatta

Chairman Mary Stuyvesant has worked hard to plan a great

regatta, so plan on coming down to enjoy the party.

Family Cruise has grown to be one of the biggest cruises

of the year and this year is no different. Corsair Yacht Club on

Emerald Bay will be the destination. This was such a big hit

with members last year that as soon as they returned from last

year’s cruise, Chairmen Bill and Keri Wofford said, “We want

to go back next year!” So grab the kids and head on over to

Catalina for a fun family weekend. We also say bon voyage

to our Commodore Ann Ach as she sets sail for Greece on

her Commodores Cruise. We wish her and all the CYC

members traveling with her a wonderful cruise and look

forward to the pictures and stories afterward.

Over the last three months, we have lost one bicycle,

four dock carts and the main gangway came off its hanger

because someone left a dock cart or other item under the

gangway. The gangway moves with the tide and anything

stored under it becomes crushed when the water level

changes. Please do not put anything under the gangways,

and return the dock carts to the area designated for them.

See you ‘round the Club.
