Part of the unwritten expectation that I have felt as Commo-

dore has been to be a presence around the yacht club, attend-

ing events I might not normally attend, and be out on the water

a bit more than I usually am. I was a bit apprehensive about

how well that would go for me as I'm not usually that social, but

it turns out I've really enjoyed it so far. I've had a lot of fun re-

connecting with some people I haven't talked with in a while,

and I'm getting to know a bit about some of the new folk too.

Best times for socializing are, for me, Wednesday night cook-

outs, and spectating sailboat races. Sunday was a great exam-

ple of that. My cousin Jeff had everyone sail an Olympic, and

only half the sailors knew what that was. Cindy Zettlemoyer was

the only signal boat person who knew. There were at least 3

spectators in kayaks, Don Franzene and Marie LeRoy on the

inflatable boat, parents and kids, the McKinnons, and Jeff Ko-

mas with his daughter. I had a blast talking to all of them.

Wednesday night cookouts aren't $3 anymore, but $8 is darn

cheap, and the meals are fun! Each one I've had has had a little

personal touch, and were darn tasty. I've sat with the Jareckis,

the Bernhards, some Porters, and have had a lot of fun. I sat

with Scot and Kari Kent at the pan-

cake breakfast and watched the

Katchas dole out bacon and wipe

down tables.

I guess what I'm realizing is this:

there's so much to do at this club,

and so many different experiences to

be had. So many people to meet or re-meet. I just have to

choose (or choose not to) go out and try it. I'm grateful for the

expectation (self-imposed though it may be!) to get out and do

these things, because I've really enjoyed it.

I hope the second half of the summer goes as well as the

first half has. I particularly enjoyed the Sailing School trivia

night, both for the competition and because it's made all these

dinners a little more affordable for me. (Did you really think I

wasn't going to mention who WON the trivia night???)

One of the great things

about sailboat racing is its

ability to hook you in with

some early successes. You

may not be consistent, but if if if if

you do a few things right and you do a few things right and you do a few things right and you do a few things right and

get some breaks, you can get some breaks, you can get some breaks, you can get some breaks, you can

succeed in certain races, succeed in certain races, succeed in certain races, succeed in certain races,

and that success keeps you and that success keeps you and that success keeps you and that success keeps you

coming back. coming back. coming back. coming back. In the past

several weeks, I loved

watching Lucas Clayton win

his first Opti RWB race by

patiently sailing the lifted

tack in light breeze, Gabe

DiBiase win his first X boat

race with good speed and

some great tactical moves,

and Jonah Boykin and Callie

Smith place 4th in their first

X boat regatta. Add these to

the more widely publicized

LBYC successes this season,

and you get a palpable

sense of the freshness

around us.

X boat regatta season is

in full force, with GLSS com-

pleted, Oshkosh and WYA

(on Beulah) in the next two

weeks, followed by the ILYA

Champs on Okoboji. Go get

‘em, Killer B’s!

See you on the See you on the See you on the See you on the

water! water! water! water!

Race Committee Corner Race Committee Corner Race Committee Corner Race Committee Corner Our scorer, Carrie Franzene, is very

busy keeping up with the 89 races

(!) we have scheduled this year. A few ac-

tions by sailors and race committee will

make her job easier:

For opti races, if you recognize a new

sailor on the course, write down the sailor’s

name as well as the number.

Taking a picture of the score sheet is

working great. At the deadline for this edi-

tion, we were missing one score sheet (C

championship 9), but hopefully by the time

you read this, we will have found the picture

that someone took of the results.

Sailors should all have the correct sail

numbers by now, but if you don’t, you need

to tell the signal boat before the race. Re-

member, the SIs limit use of incorrect sail

numbers.

For the Wednesday night series, C and

MC sailors that serve as PRO or chase boat

are entitled to average points. Sailors,

please email Carrie ([email protected]) and

your fleet captain to note that you get aver-

age points. Thank you, Carrie!

Hard to believe that the Fourth of July Hard to believe that the Fourth of July Hard to believe that the Fourth of July Hard to believe that the Fourth of July

is over! is over! is over! is over! It was a very busy weekend at the

club! The LBSS Trivia dinner was very well

attended and enjoyed by all. The trivia

portion of the evening made for some live-

ly debate. The team that I was on was in

first place at half time and showing great

promise only to finish up the night in last

place! The fireworks on the 3rd were

spectacular. Thanks to all who worked

hard on the fireworks committee. Can-

dace and her team served up a wonderful

pancake breakfast. My thanks to that

committee as well. Marie Leroy and Mel

Urban stepped up at the last minute to

run the outdoor games and did a fantastic

job. The was a great sense of community

that could be felt as yacht club members

and their families and guests enjoyed

each other's company. The Wednesday

night cookouts have been great and well

attended. Thanks to Dennis and Judy

Smalley and John

and Susan Brown

and their commit-

tees for the last

couple of cook-

outs. Their hard

work is much

appreciated by

all.

ILYA C Invite at NagawickaILYA C Invite at NagawickaILYA C Invite at NagawickaILYA C Invite at Nagawicka by Christine Mc Neil

35 Sailors gathered on Nagawicka

this past weekend to sail the ILYA C In-

vite. Six and a half Beulah boats came Six and a half Beulah boats came Six and a half Beulah boats came Six and a half Beulah boats came

out for the event.out for the event.out for the event.out for the event. Friday brought strong

winds and thirds for many. Two races

were sailed in the morning and one in

the afternoon.

In the morning races, Peter Keck

and Ben Porter won race 1. Andrea

Sullivan tried out her dad’s brand new

Harecut and had a great race finishing

7th. Alex Keck/Patrick Schmidt finished

13th and Glenn McMurray with Andrea

Lee (above) (above) (above) (above) finished 14th. Charlie

Kutsch with Jim Kutch (below) (below) (below) (below) ended

race 1 in 16th after giving the fleet a

huge advantage by leaving his leech

cord on for an upwind leg. Charlie real-

ized his mistake, took away his handi-

cap and won race 2. Peter and Ben had

a crazy comeback after being sailed off

the course at the first windward mark

rounding by an Okauchee boat trying to

take their penalty ending race 2 in third.

Dave Porter sailing with daughters

Christine and Anne finished 8th (which

was good after being over early for race

one with a painful 29th already on the

scorecard). Frank Davenport, sailing

with Jaymie Youngquist and niece, Tere-

sa Westin, finished 9th. Alex Keck and

Patrick Schmidt finished 11th. In for

lunch and back onto the water again, a

third heavy air race was sailed on Fri-

day. Peter and Ben sailed another 3rd

place having them lead the regatta into

day 2. Frank broke a backstay forcing

him to retire from race 3. Dave Porter

lost his mainsheet on a windward mark

rounding that Anne rethreaded at the

leeward mark. Glenn McMurray finished

8th and Charlie Kutch finished 9th.

Day two greeted sailors with a medi-

um forecast (7-12mph) and seemingly

more wind on the water. Frank, being

fully rested from only sailing two races

the day previous and with new crew

Junior, took the bullet in race 4. Peter

and Ben were right behind him in sec-

ond maintaining their lead. The B-17

had Christine at the helm for the day

and finished race 4 in 11th stealing

Morgan Keck as a third. Alex and Pat-

rick had another great race finishing in

13th. Race 5 lightened up a little bit and

Peter and Ben took 9th. Christine and

Dave took 11th. Franky finished 13th

and Andrea Sullivan rounded out the

top 15 finishing 15th. During lunch we

held the ILYA fleet meeting. The Invite

will become a 2 day Saturday Sunday

event, not 3. There were 3 people who

came that would not have attended had

it overlapped X WYA. There was talk

about moving the event back to X WYA

weekend, or overlapping it with the E/

MC invites. For less stress on the ILYA

there is also discussion about the MC’s

moving to X WYA weekend and the C

scows overlapping the E invite. No deci-

sions were made on weekends. A new

run of masts is being extruded and will

all be serial numbers and measured.

After lunch we headed out for Race

6 which almost got to Beulah’s fluky

wind. The wind swirled, died, came back

up and made for one frustrating and

unpredictable race. Frank was the top

Beulah finisher getting 4th. Peter and

Ben took 5th, Andrea Sullivan took 9th,

and Christine took 15th. Nagawicka had

a great pig roast dinner at the club com-

plete with salad bar and homemade

desserts. Peter and Ben were leading

the regatta after day 2 with a few boats

in striking distance.

Race 7 was scheduled for Sunday.

The breeze was more than forecasted

and the fleet went out to sail. The wind

lightened up as we sailed out but it was

still between 4-8 mph. After a postpone-

ment, the RC started the race. Christine

finished the race in 4th, Peter and Ben

finished 11th, Andrea Sullivan sailing

with John Sullivan was 12th, and Glenn

McMurray got 15th.

All seven races in with one throw

out, Peter and Ben got second, (below) (below) (below) (below)

Frank and Jaymie/Junior placed 9th,

the Yacht Club at 5:15 p.m. Following a short stop at the

Grubis pier to pick up appetizers, each guest will enjoy an

early evening cruise on Lake Beulah before heading to their

assigned location for dinner.

The Dock & Dine committee has again planned an outstand-

will be able to enjoy their meal at outstanding locations on

Lake Beulah both on the upper lake and lower lake. Follow-

ing dinner, guests will re-board the pontoon boats and cruise

to the Sass pier for a dessert buffet on the Sass Terrace.

Dave Bitter has promised a reprise of his delicious home-

made Kahlua.

LBSSLBSSLBSSLBSS Grads at work by Michael Bach, (Article condensed from original)

As the month of June approached, the 147’ steel hulled

yacht, Scout, got ready to depart West Palm Beach, Florida

for New England waters just like in seasons past. This

spring however, Scout had a new crew member named

Bach. Darby Bach 18, joined her brother Woody 21, for the

summer on this privately owned, 5 stateroom yacht.

For the past two plus years Woody Bach has been working

full time on the Scout which normally winters in the Caribbe-

an including St. Maarten, St Barts and the Bahamas and

summers in New England including Newport, RI, Nantucket

and Cape Cod. Woody’s title is Boson and 2nd Engineer.

Most often either dockside or while underway, he is paired

with an engineering teammate and together they make sure

all systems and equipment is operating and fully up to

speed.

Imagine taking your 5-bedroom house off the grid where

you have to generate your own electricity and make your

own freshwater. Next make it portable, capable of traveling

4,500 nautical miles at 10 knots. The boat has a crew of 12

with a full time chef and three stewardesses, including Dar-

by They are capable of serving up to twenty guests. Plans

are for Scout to spend the summer of 2017 in the Mediter-

ranean. Next up for team Scout will be a new 210’ motor

yacht currently under construction in Holland and due to be

launched in 2018
