I couldn’t say how many hours I’ve spent at the o� ice. How long I’ve dedicated to client meetings, working lunches and all-nighters. Which is why it’s so rewarding to be out here, where there are no e-mails, where the only meeting that matters is the hull and the water, and the only call is the ocean ahead.

Drinking and Boating: A Sobering Perspective

2011 was a pretty lousy year for recreational boating safety asthe statistics produced by the United States Coast Guards(USCG) annual report show. There were 4,588 accidents resulting in 758 recorded deaths in the US, a 14.8% increaserepresenting 6.2 deaths per 100,000 registered vessels. 70% ofall fatal boating accident victims drowned, and out of those a whopping 84% were reportedas not having been wearing a life jacket. The leading contributor in fatal boating accidentswas yet again alcohol, which accounted for 16% of all fatalities. Pretty sobering stuff!

Beyond the numbers, the USCG makes a couple of observations that provide tellingand somewhat scary clues to the extent of the issue with alcohol consumption — ºfirst ofwhich, a boat operator is likely to become impaired more quickly than a driver, drink fordrink. But what is most concerning is that the use of alcohol is involved in about a third of all recreational boating fatalities.

Alcohol’s chief impact on core human cognitive functions is sensory perception and balance, which we are all aware of. However, putting this in the context of a rolling deckand unfamiliar spatial frames of reference, the actual effects of alcohol can be multipletimes as detrimental as being on terra firma. The USCG points out on its boater safetywebsite that a boat operator with a blood alcohol concentration above .10 percent is estimated to be more than 10 times as likely to die in a boating accident than an operatorwith zero blood alcohol concentration. Scary!

Looking at the second observations, we have a math problem. If the statistics tell us that 16% of all fatalities are caused by alcohol, why does the USCG reckon that alcohol isinvolved in “about a third” of all fatalities? It’s all a matter of what is defined as primarycause versus a contributor. It seems that drinking is involved in twice as many deaths as its involvement as primary cause. Again, scary!

People are going to drink. Even the abolitionists conceded that one! What is pretty clearand obvious is that drinking is really only for non-crew members while chained to the boat,or for everyone on board after the passage is complete and everything is safely stowed and immobilized!

So, what are the options? The crew can appoint a designated boater, or better yet, beone yourself. I have always been a fan of statistics, but the numbers I read every year fromthe USCG are somewhat bothersome and needn’t be there. It makes me want to reach for a G and T, which I will only do if I am sure that I am not a danger to myself or, mostimportantly, to anyone else on board. ml

WEEKEND WARRIOR >

Cruising the Massachusetts CoastExplore the North Shore, Boston and Plymouth

EExploring history-rich Boston, on Massachusetts’ central coastline, is one of the best summer cruisingadventures on the East Coast. The area has been home to a wealth of significant events throughout the centuries, from the Boston Massacre to the Boston Tea Party to the Battle of Bunker Hill. It’s a one-of-a-kind destination that makes for an exciting weekend you won’t forget.

Tie up your dinghy along the Charles River at Community Boating Inc., and enjoy a delightful day wandering down Newbury Street. The charming eight-block area is filled with salons, boutiques,and spectacular dining choices. Swing by the Flour Bakery (617-437-7700, flourbakery.com) for the excellent pastries, sandwiches and salads.

If you fancy exercise, you can run, skate, or ride bikes along the historic 18-mile-long Charles RiverEsplanade, which runs parallel to the entire basin on both the north and south sides of the Charles River waterfront. If you’re a baseball fan, don’t miss a tour of — or better yet, a game at — Fenway Park(617-226-6666, boston.redsox.mlb.com), the oldest major league park in the U. S. and home to theBoston Red Sox. When it’s time for dinner, you’ll be spoiled for choices, as Boston is full of top-notchrestaurants. One perennial favorite is the Top of the Hub Restaurant & Lounge (617-536-1775,topofthehub.net), which features contemporary New England dishes and stunning views of downtown.If you’re near the area on the Fourth of July, relax along the banks of the Charles and catch the annualBoston Pops Fireworks Spectacular (july4th.org).

Great dockage can be found in the city’s famed North End neighborhood at Boston Yacht Haven(617-367-5050, thebostonyachthaven.com), or at Constitution Marina (617-241-9640, constitutionmarina.com), which is set along the historic Freedom Trail.

For a quick trip through the city by water, travel down the Charles River through the locks to Cambridge, home to Harvard and MIT, and visit the Galleria Mall, Central Square, and Harvard Square.

• Boston Harbor was the sight of the Boston Tea Partyheld by the Sons of Liberty on December 16, 1773.

By Olivia Schleicher

Newburyport, MassachusettsThe final destination of the weekend is Newburyport, a historicseaport 17 miles north of Gloucester that was the birthplace of the coast guard in 1965. Parker River National WildlifeRefuge is teeming with more than 800 species of birds, plants,and animals. Plum Island, 11 miles long, is great for birding and swimming. Hit Ten Center Street (978-462-6652, tencenterstreet.com)for a quick bite, especially if it’s Wednesday, when oysters are $1.Michael’s Harborside (978-462-7785, michaelsharborside.com) hasgreat seafood and a lively outdoor bar. If you can, visit Newburyportduring the annual Yankee Homecoming ( July 28–Aug. 4) for concerts, sidewalk sales, food vendors, and magnificent fireworks.Dockage is available at Newburyport Harbor Marina (978-462-3990,newburyportmarinas.com). ml

DAYS3

Gloucester, MassachusettsAbout 45 miles north of Plymouth is Gloucester, the center of New England’s fishing industry. The city is home to the oldest seaport in the country. Ever seen the popular National Geographic show Wicked Tuna? That’s exactly what

this town is all about: bluefin tuna.

Soak up the rays at Good Harbor Beach or Wingaersheek Beach, both of which are kid friendly. Bring your appetite to take advantage of one of the state’s best seafood restaurants: the Gloucester House (888-283-1812, thegloucesterhouse.com). Prefer to dock and dine?Head to Rudder Restaurant (978-283-7967, rudderrestaurant.com),known for its “wicked-cool” atmosphere and creative yet affordablemenu. Visit during the 33rd annual Gloucester Waterfront Festival(Aug. 17–18) for crafts, live music and food. Whenever you visit, tie up at Cape Ann Marina Resort (978-283-3293, capeannmarina.com),which provides transient dockage for vessels up to 150 feet.

DAYS2

The town of Plymouth thrived on ropemaking,fishing and shipping in the 19th century.

When low tide hits at Good Harbor Beach, a sandbarforms and allows visitors access to the rocky island.

Michael’s Harborside is located on the Merrimac River in Newburyportand offers delicious lobster rolls and the best burgers in town.

DAY1

Summer 2013 19

Plymouth, MassachusettsLocated just 35 miles south of Boston, the quaint town of Plymouth was one of the first colonies founded by the pilgrims in 1620. The town is best known as the setting of the original Thanksgiving feast and is filled with historic buildings, museums, and monuments, including the 1749 Court House and Museum, the First Church, Burial Hill, and the Mayflower II (a replica of the original Mayflower).

Stroll along the cobblestone walkways of the Village Landing Market-place, a shopping district of boutiques, specialty shops, restaurants andcafes. Hungry?

Cruzin Brings New Revenues to Marinas and Boat Owners with Boater-to-Boater™ Charters

Would you like to o�set some of the costs of your boat with a handful of simple, secure charters? As a marina operator, would you like to see greater revenues from increased tra�c and activity at your facilities? Would you like to help more people get into boating?

Cruzin is revolutionizing boating by making boater-to-boater™ charters simple, secure, and economically advantageous for everyone involved. Now owners of boats of all sizes – from small fishing boats up to sailing yachts - can charter out their vessels directly to other experienced boaters. With Cruzin, owners can o�set their month’s boat ownership costs with just a day or two of chartering. Experienced boaters who are traveling, want to try out a di�erent boat, or currently don’t own a boat can rent boats all over America simply and securely via Cruzin’s website, www.cruzin.com. Marinas enjoy increased tra�c, fuel sales, and the associated revenue-generating boating activity.

Cruzin is working in partnership with Westrec, the largest marina management company in the US, to launch nationwide. “Cruzin makes boating more accessible” said Bill Anderson, Westrec Marinas president. “We are always seeking ways to improve the quality of our boaters’ experience at the marina and beyond. In many cases, one can o�set the cost of a month’s storage with just one or two day’s rental. That helps make boating more a�ordable for our customers and adds value to their experience at our marinas.”

Cruzin makes boater-to-boater charters easy and secure, providing the most comprehensive coverage in the peer-to-peer market. Cruzin

supplies $1,000,000 in hull and liability insurance for both owners and renters from a world-class A+ rated firm. The security of BoatUS towing services is provided with every rental as well. Cruzin has a highly e�ective two-step renter pre-qualification process protecting both boat owners and renters. Each renter receives an ID and fraud-prevention check through Experian followed by a check of boating qualifications and past driving and insurance issues. All renters in the Cruzin program have at least two years of boating experience. Cruzin provides owners and renters the information and pre-screening

they need to come together for safe, enjoyable charter experiences.

“Cruzin is changing boating,” said Captain Bob Hamilton of Trawler School in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. “Now owning a boat can help pay for its costs. Many people

would like to charter their boats now and then, but can’t because of the high costs of chartering; like the insurance, towing, finding customers and all that. With Cruzin’s program your boat is covered by their insurance and towing during the charter, and they bring you the customers.”

If you would like to find out more about Cruzin Boater-to-Boater™ Charters, visit the website at www.cruzin.com, or contact Cruzin’s CEO, Jaclyn Baumgarten to discuss getting involved.

“In many cases, one can offset the cost of

a month’s storage with just one or two

day’s rental”

Historic boats docked in Oxford, the Robert Morris Inn, the Tred Avon Yacht Club Junior Sailing Program, aerial view of Mears Yacht Haven

Oxford, Maryland: Heritage at theHeart of the Eastern ShoreBy Angelica Virga

FOUNDED IN 1694, Oxford is one of Maryland’s oldest towns and sits nearthe mouth of the Tred Avon River on the Chesapeake Bay. During the AmericanRevolution, Oxford was one of the most prominent international shipping centersin the country and thrived from the affluent tobacco plantations that surroundedit. Today, Oxford is a tranquil waterfront spot with a historic charm that makes itpopular with boaters looking to escape the hustle and bustle of most port cities.

Visitors can stroll down Oxford’s brick sidewalks, picnic in the park overlookingthe river, or bike along the town’s wide, quiet streets and get the scoop from thelocals on what is happening in town. Don’t miss a ride on the landmark Oxford-Bellevue Ferry, which links Oxford with the town of Bellevue and crosses thethree-quarters-of-a-mile-wide river (bring your bicycle to be able to toodlethrough Bellevue). It’s one of the nation’s oldest privately operated ferry services,in business since 1836.

Travel back in time and explore the town’s rich heritage at the Oxford Museum,home to a collection of artifacts that date back to the 17th century. Exhibits displayeverything from vintage photographs and clothing to antique boat building andwatermen’s tools. History buffs will not be disappointed by a visit to Oxford’sCustom House, located next to the ferry terminal. The colonial replica of theoriginal custom house is open weekends from April through late autumn. Theatergoers can enjoy plays and musicals at the Oxford Community Center,where the Tred Avon Players, a nonprofit theatre group, performs throughout the year (this summer, catch the play The Fox on the Fairway).

Boaters will enjoy the Annual Nautical Festival and Flea Market (held Aug. 31this year). The fun-filled celebration features live entertainment, lectures, foodstalls, and a variety of vendors selling arts and crafts, new and used marine parts,fishing gear, dock accessories, and all manner of nautically themed goods.

The Essentials: OxfordWhere to DockMears Yacht Haven (410-226-5450, coastal-properties.com/mears.html), located withinwalking distance of Oxford’s main attractions, themarina can accommodate vessels up to 150 ft. whilehaving a yacht-club setting with swimming pool,bike and car rentals, laundry, picnic areas, partypatio and fuel dock.

Oxford Boat Yard (410-226-5101, oxfordboatyard.com), located next to Mears YachtHaven, is one of the last remaining true boat yards(started in 1866), which can take on almost any project — from building boats and major retrofits to carpentry, electronics, rigging, welding and more.

Where to ProvisionStop by the well-stocked Oxford Market (203 S.Morris St., 410-226-0015) to load up on groceries.

Where to EatFor a memorable meal in a historic setting, visit the Robert Morris Inn (314 N. Morris St.,410-226-5111). Chef Mark Salter sources regional ingredients from nearby farms and theChesapeake Bay.

For a casual outdoor dining experience — and great sunsets — visit Pier Street Marina Restaurant (104 W. Pier St., 410-226-5171), famous for theirlocal steamed crabs and seafood.ml

Newport is also the departure point for some excellent weekend cruises. After you clear BrentonReef, you can follow the line of boats sailing to thesoutheast for destinations such as Cuttyhunk, Martha’sVineyard or Nantucket. If you follow the boats headingsouthwest, you’ll soon arrive at Block Island.

The environs of Newport offer much more thangreat sailing, the traditions of the America’s Cup andthe home port of Capt. Nate Herreshoff. Architecturefrom the Colonial Era through the Gilded Era sur-round you when you are ashore. Sailing in to NewportHarbor, the towering classic spire of Trinity Churchoffers a glimpse into the history of the Church ofEngland in colonial America. Built in 1726, its wineglass-shaped pulpit still sits in the center of the aisle in front of the altar, which emphasized the importanceof the sermon for Newport Episcopalians whose congregation formed in 1698.

Fifty years before the first Anglican minister arrived in Newport, fifteen Jewish families fleeing the Spanish and Portuguese Inquisitions landed in

Newport from Barbados. After their arrival in 1658,they formed what is now the second oldest Jewishcongregation in the United States. In 1763, just a short walk up the hill from Trinity Church, this congregation built a permanent house of worship, nowcalled Touro Synagogue. Designed in the Palladian architectural style, it reflected the wealth of the growingJewish community. Jacob Rodriques Rivera introducedthe manufacturing of sperm whale oil and candles toNewport. It became a leading colonial industry, whichNewport kept as a near monopoly until the AmericanRevolution, and it made the fortune of many families.Just how valuable was this commodity? Today, a barrelof Brent crude oil is just over $100 on the spot market.In 1823, a barrel of sperm oil sold for $200 (adjustedfor the value of today’s dollar) and by 1855 it had risento more than $1,400 a barrel.

But it was the triangle trade that really broughtwealth to Newport both before and after the Revolu-tionary War. Slaves were purchased in Africa, broughtto plantations in the Caribbean to forcibly producesugar and molasses. These sugar cane products werethen shipped to Newport and distilled into rum, andsoon sent on to West Africa to be traded for moreslaves. Newport had twenty-two rum distilleries in1764, and Rhode Island was home to sixty percent of the slave trading ships embarking from NorthAmerica. After Rhode Island became a state, morethan seven hundred people living there owned or captained slave ships; many of them came from Newport. The D’Wolf family of Bristol, just acrossfrom Aquidneck Island, were the largest slave tradersin all of North America.

Soon after the American Revolution began, theBritish occupied Newport, realizing its strategic

Without a doubt if you are a sailor, Newport, Rhode Island is the place to be in the summer. My very favorite way to spend a long summer’s day is sailing completely aroundAquidneck Island. Newport is located at the lower tip of that island, which is surroundedby Narragansett Bay, the Sakonnet River, Mt. Hope Bay and Rhode Island Sound.

position as a seaport. It would have made an excellentnaval base for the patriots to stage attacks on New YorkCity, which the British also controlled. However, by1779, with the fortunes of war changing, the Britishabandoned Newport to concentrate their forces in NewYork. A year later, the French General Rochambeau,with an army of 6,000 men, anchored off Newport.King Louis XVI had finally made good his support for the American Revolution, if only as a way to harassGreat Britain, France’s traditional bitter enemy. In Julyof 1781, Rochambeau and his forces began theirmarch to New York where they combined forces withthe Continental Army led by George Washington.The two generals then decided that the British forcesin Virginia under General Cornwallis were a bettertarget than trying to uproot the British Army fromNew York. So Rochambeau and Washington bypassedNew York, marched on to Yorktown and into historywinning the battle that won the Revolution.

One hundred years after the Revolutionary War,America entered the Gilded Age. Mark Twainsummed up this era best when he quipped, “What isthe chief end of man? — to get rich. In what way? —dishonestly if we can; honestly if we must.” No city inAmerica better exemplified the excesses of that timethan Newport. During the late 1800s, America’swealthiest families began summering in Newport. The Vanderbilts and the Astors all built grandiose

mansions along Bellevue Avenue, dubbing them “cottages.” These cottages were used for the brief social season and were the setting for fabulous ballsand dinners. Today, many of the cottages are now preserved in a historic trust and have become a primeNewport tourist attraction. The tours of The Breakers,Chateau-sur-Mer, Marble House, The Elms andRosecliff offer a glimpse into the lives of those titansof industry, banking and commerce, their families andtheir hired help.

And the perfect way to end the day is a stroll alongCliff Walk. As twilight begins and the expansive seabefore you darkens, open a bottle of Champagne andtoast to the beauty that is Newport.

Navigating NewfoundlandMarinalife members and owners of Remedios, a Hinckley 59 Sou’wester

By Frans J. Kok and Mary M. Shirley

It is a long trip from the U.S. to Newfoundland, but once there, you are rewarded with a cruising paradise of inestimable beauty and challenges. If you’d like to explore long,narrow fjords 600 feet deep and lined by sheer rock faces; if you’ve dreamed of anchoringin solitary coves beneath steep, rocky walls covered in lacy waterfalls; if you yearn to visittiny fishing ports clinging to the bottoms of cliffs and free of roads, where the people are unbelievably kind and friendly and speak with an almost unintelligible accent, thenthe south coast of Newfoundland is the place for you.

Getting ThereYou have many choices when planning your trip to Newfoundland from the eastcoast of the U.S. If you have time, you cancrawl up the coastline in day trips and thensomewhere between Boston and Bar Harbor take the plunge across the Gulf of Maine to Shelburne, Nova Scotia (NS), in anovernight passage of about 300 NM fromBoston. You can then continue daytrippingalong the Nova Scotia coast until you reachLouisbourg. From Louisbourg it’s anovernight passage of about 200 NM to thecharming French islands of St. Pierre andMiquelon, where you must clear French customs. From St. Pierre it is only one more40-NM day trip to Fortune, Newfoundland.If you stopped in St. Pierre, you must clearCanadian customs again in Fortune, whichyou could avoid if you skipped the stop in St. Pierre. But it would be a great pity tomiss St. Pierre, a little bit of France in thewestern north Atlantic with terrific hikingand wonderful French food and wine.

We recommend starting your cruise ofNewfoundland’s south coast in Fortune for a number of reasons:• There is a customs office right in the

harbor. It is the only clearing port on thesouth coast of Newfoundland of which we are aware.• If you skipped St. Pierre, you can take theferry from Fortune to St. Pierre and avoidhaving to clear your boat again throughCanadian customs, while still exploring St. Pierre. • There is good reprovisioning at the local supermarket.• The harbormaster is very helpful, and the marina has showers and water. Fuel can be delivered by truck from thelocal gas station. • You can get decent service for your engineand electronics. Parts can be ordered innearby St. Johns and will arrive within two days from anywhere in Canada.• There is a laundromat underneath the harbormaster’s office, and some of the local motels will do your laundry for a reasonable fee.• There is usually plenty of space at the floatingdocks. You cannot anchor in the harbor.• We also recommend buying a copy of the Cruising Club of America’s excellentThe Cruising Guide to Newfoundlandbefore you go.

Once ThereThe south coast of Newfoundland offers a myriad of splendid cruising options. We headed west from Fortune to Port auxBasques, visiting 14 harbors along the way.The distance was only 500 NM, but we tookour time (19 days) because we wanted to seeas much as possible. Although fog is always arisk in these waters, the two times we sailedthere ( July 2012 and August 2006) we hadsurprisingly sunny weather. Below are thedescriptions of seven of the harbors in our cruise. The entire cruise can be found on marinalife.com/newfoundland.

HARBOR BRETONWe were greeted by a friendly man on a JetSki who directed us to an empty space at thedock. The spot was too short for Remedios,so several people alerted one of the fishermenthat there was a visiting yacht, and somefishing boats were moved to create room for us — the sort of hospitality for whichNewfoundland is rightly famous. If there is a fishing boat that looks sufficiently invitingfor you to dock alongside, you should notethat in the summer the fishermen start prep-ping their boats at about 4 a.m., so make

sure you don’t tie up to a fishing boat that isplanning on leaving the next day. Anchoringin the harbor is also an option, but then youmiss the social life ashore.

Be prepared for lots of locals to come byto say hello. They will not invite themselveson board, but if you offer them a beer youcan hear some interesting stories in heavilyaccented English. When we visited in 2012,the mayor, Erik Skinner, came by on his motorcycle and told us about the terriblelandslide that killed three children, still fresh in everyone’s memory even though ithappened in the 1960s.

PINK BOTTOM, PICCAIRE BAYThis is a snug and beautiful spot without anycommerce. We anchored in about 45 feet ofwater and were surrounded by towering cliffsand bald eagles. Beware of the rocks at theeast side of the entrance to Piccaire Bay.

PATRICK’S HARBOR, BAY D’ESPOIREYou enter Patrick’s Harbor through LittlePassage, which has spectacularly tall peaksand waterfalls crashing into the sea thatare not to be missed. Patrick’s Harbor isa lovely protected spot with rolling hillsin the distance.

HACHER’S COVE, BONNE BAYBonne Bay lives up to its name: it is verybonnie indeed. The bay has a number ofsalmon farming operations, which are notwell marked, so if it is foggy we recommendgoing into McCallum on the west side afterthe entrance to Bonne Bay. Like most ofNewfoundland’s outports, McCallum’s tiny,brightly painted houses snake up the sides ofthe hills along long walkways that also serveas roads for four-wheelers, but there are noroad connections to the rest of the island.Although McCallum suffered badly when the

cod disappeared, it is becoming prosperousagain thanks to the salmon farms. There is a ferry dock and another wharf beside it thatyou can use to tie up. Make sure you knowwhen the ferry comes in, so you can vacatethe space in time.

If you enter Bonne Bay on a clear day, do not hesitate to go up the bay to charmingHacher’s Cove. The bay is spectacular, withvery steep walls and 200-foot depths 20 feetfrom the shore. Be careful as you approachHacher’s Cove: the bottom comes up quicklyas you get close to the waterfall at the northend of Bonne Bay. You can safely anchor in about 40 feet of water on the eastern sideof Hacher’s Cove. The scenery is beautiful— green hills, lacy waterfalls, and soaringbald eagles.

FRANCOISThe tiny outport of Francois, with about 100inhabitants, is located about a mile from theentrance of Francois Bay. Colorful houses arenestled at the bottom of towering rock walls.Francois has wonderful walking trails up tothe cemetery — located on one of the fewflat spots high above the village — and tothe tops of the 700-foot peaks that surroundit. There are two floating docks and a ferrydock. Nothing is far from anything in thislittle village, including the two local stores;both are a short distance from the docks.

GRAND BRUITIf you want to see Grand Bruit you’ll have to be quick. This outport was “resettled” in2010, meaning the Canadian governmentbought all the houses and everyone left. Thepower and water were disconnected, the entrance buoys were removed, and the ferrystopped landing. The site is still lovely —picturesque houses nestled in the hills and agiant and noisy waterfall bisecting the centerof town — but it has become an eerie harbor.When Remedios visited in 2012, the ferrydock was solid and there was still a functionalfloating dock. In a few more years, the fishstages will start to tumble into the harbor,and it will become treacherous to enter.

The church was still open in 2012 andthe guestbook had four entries, all of themfrom boats we knew. You can ring the churchbell if you feel so inclined. Small boats fromBurgeo sometimes enter, and some of theformer inhabitants have five-year leases withthe government, which allow them to spendweekends camping in their old homes.

ROSE BLANCHEWhen entering Rose Blanche harbor youhave to choose between three coves. We areonly familiar with the middle and westerncoves. The middle cove is narrow, but it has a government wharf including a floatingdock. There was only 8 feet of water at low

tide when we measured it in 2012. The westcove is wider and has the ferry dock, and aclosed and rapidly decaying fish plant. Wedocked on the west side of the ferry dock(the ferry docks on the eastern side) andwalked over the hill to the town of RocheBlanche. The town has at most a few hundred inhabitants, but it has a road to Port aux Basques. The houses are scatteredamong huge, astonishingly white boulders;the town name is a corruption of rocheblanche or white rock.

It was drizzling when we arrived in town,and we were delighted to discover a snug andcharming tearoom run by a very friendlywoman, Lynn from Ontario, with wonderfulteas and tarts. Lynn also owns the adjacentsmall B&B with a number of cozy rooms.

The stone light house at Rose Blanche isreputedly the oldest light house in Canadaand possibly in North America. It was builtin 1871 by Scottish engineers from the family of author Robert Lewis Stevenson. It was entirely reconstructed and refurbishedin 1999. You will be astounded that it actually housed a family of 16 people at one point. ml

The Boat Show BounceFall shows offer an excellent opportunity

to cruise down the East Coast.

By Steve Rosenberg

For most people across the country, boat shows

take place inside convention centers and arenas

during the longest part of the winter, when cold,

rain and snow dominate the forecast and make

dreams of cruising difficult. But for the ambitious

boater, the waning heat and refreshing air of

autumn is the perfect time to float down the East

Coast to some of the oldest and most respected

waterfront boat shows in America. From the

Newport International Boat Show in September

to the St. Petersburg Power & Sailboat Show in

December, these five spectacular events are set

in five equally spectacular cities, all with fabled

and thriving boating cultures.

YOU CAN’T MISS the Riverwalk, part of Chattanooga’s redeveloped waterfront, which connects Coolidge Park, the celebrated Tennessee Aquarium and Ross’ Landing near Chickamauga Dam. Hop aboard the aquarium’s RiverGorge Explorer catamaran, which will take you on a guidedtour of the spectacular Tennessee River Gorge, or ride the Chattanooga Water Taxi to Maclellan Island, an 18-acre birdsanctuary with great blue herons and migrating warblers.

TIE UP AT one of the marinas on either side of the ChickamaugaDam, both easy distance to downtown. MarineMax Tennessee River at Ross’ Landing (423-266-1316, marinemaxtennesseeriver.com) has a transient dock, gas and diesel, restrooms, groceries and lodging. Erwin Marine operates Chickamauga Marina (423-622-1978,chickamaugamarina.com), off the main channel in an embayment just upstream of the dock, with showers, a storeand other services for visiting cruisers.

MARK YOUR CALENDAR for RiverRocks, a free outdoor festival celebrating the natural blessings of the TennesseeValley, the health benefits of the activities they inspire, andChattanooga’s commitment to environmental stewardship.It’s from October 4 to 13 this year, with more than 120 activities such as hot air balloon rides, hang gliding,climbing and obstacle courses.

VISIT NEARBY Lake Winnepesaukah, an amusement park located in Lakeview, Ga. Its new, five-acre waterpark has a lazy river, wave lagoon, flume body slides, enclosed tubeslides and a splash park for toddlers.

CHATTANOOGANot only has this scenic city tucked between the mountains of southeast Tennessee and the beautiful Tennessee River been named “Best Town Ever” by Outsidemagazine, it’s also been voted one of the “Top 45Places to Go” and “Best Adventure Towns in the U.S.” by the New York Times and National Geographic Adventure, respectively. The heaping of praise is a little embarrassing, really, but you won’t hear us disagree.

Talk to anyone about Tennessee and the conversation

will usually boil down to a back-and-forth about music

or barbeque. Well, we’re here to tell you that boating

should be added to the mix. A grand confluence

on-board opportunities to all corners of the Volunteer

State, with the quality of fishing and cruising rivaling

anywhere in the Midwest.

YOU CAN’T MISS Volunteer Landing, a one-mile promenadescattered with waterfalls and fountains, historical markersand three restaurants. It’s also the location of the Star ofKnoxville riverboat, offering lunch, dinner and specialtycruises, and the Three Rivers Rambler Railroad, providingtrain rides along the Tennessee River. Downtown is withinwalking distance: Take in the 18th century Blount Mansion,Knoxville Museum of Art, World’s Fair Sunsphere and Market Square, offering an eclectic blend of open-air diningand entertainment.

TIE UP AT Volunteer Landing Marina (865-633-5004, themarinas.net) to be right in the middle of the action. It carries gas and diesel, and is equipped with electric andwater hook-ups, transient slips, pump-out, a store and more.

MARK YOUR CALENDAR for college football season, becausethere’s nothing else like catching a home game with the Vol Navy. Neyland Stadium is one of only two college arenas that are directly accessible by boat (the other is theUniversity of Washington) and up to 200 boats and theirpigskin-crazed passengers turn out to tailgate here beforeand after games.

VISIT NEARBY Lake Tellico, about 30 miles southwest ofKnoxville. An extension of Fort Loudon Lake, it establishesa navigational waterway up the Little Tennessee River andcreates the potential for non-stop cruising. The lake consistsof 373 miles of shoreline and features a number of premiergolf courses and resorts.

KNOXVILLEThis northeast Tennessee town made a splash as host of the 1982World’s Fair, and World’s Fair Park remains a major crowd-pleaser— but Knoxville was a draw long before that. The surrounding peaks provided attractive minerals and timber, which lured early entrepreneurs. Today, these same resources bring visitors to GreatSmoky Mountains National Park. Knoxville is also home to theUniversity of Tennessee and its formidable Volunteer Navy, butmore on that later.

YOU CAN’T MISS Beale Street Landing, at the foot of theone-and-only street of the same name. The landing is takingshape along the Mississippi as part of the city’s riverfront development project, which will connect Tom Lee Park,Cobblestone Landing, a river overlook and pathways forjoggers, walkers and cyclists. It will also serve as a dockingfacility for local and visiting excursion vessels, including theshow-stopping American Queen.

TIE UP ATMud Island Marina (901-525-3808, memphisy-achtclub.com) about 1,500 feet up the Wolf River close todowntown Memphis, offering accommodations for vesselsup to 135 feet, gas and diesel, pump-out, restrooms withshowers, WiFi, a store and restaurant.

MARK YOUR CALENDAR for Elvis Week, running from August 9 to 17 this year, with special tours, concerts, paneldiscussions, dances and more. The cornerstone events are the Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist Contest and the Candlelight Vigil, which brings tens of thousands to themeditation garden in Graceland.

VISIT NEARBYMud Island, actually a peninsula, just a littleremoved from downtown. The naturally stunning park is accessible by the Memphis Suspension Railway (a monorail),by foot (via a footbridge on top of the monorail) or by ferry,and is home to a river museum, scale model of the LowerMississippi, amphitheater, and canoe, kayak and mountainbike rentals.

MEMPHISUnlike its country neighbor to the north — we’re talkingto you, Nashville — this southwest Tennessee city has arock ‘n’ roll heart. Its history is defined by the MississippiRiver and the soulful culture that developed along itsbanks as a result of countless travelers. Today, Memphisradiates a mojo that’s part old school blues, part NewSouth allure and 100 percent all its own.

YOU CAN’T MISS Riverfront Park, which connects the Cumberland River with the city’s bustling downtown area.The Nashville waterfront is wrapping up a decade-long restructure and expansion project, and the park reaps thebenefits with increased green space, boardwalks, overlooksand plazas. In addition, new docking facilities for the GeneralJackson showboat mean its daytime country music shows andelegant three-course dinner cruises are here to stay.

TIE UP AT the Nashville Municipal Dock (615-862-8472) in the shadow of the Shelby Avenue Bridge, which ties theColiseum side of the Cumberland River with downtown.There’s electric and water on the west bank dock, electriconly on the east bank.

MARK YOUR CALENDAR for August 23 and 24, whenNashville is set to host the Music City Festival & BBQChampionship, combining music and a barbeque cook-off.Attend the “delightfully tacky” Swine Ball, where pig nosesare encouraged, enter the hog calling contest and check outthe music on the Grand Ol’ Porker Stage.

VISIT NEARBY J. Percy Priest Lake, 10 miles east of downtown Nashville. Measuring 42 miles long, this body of water is well known for its fabulous fishing (bass, crappie,catfish, bluegill, trout) and also for Nashville Shores, a waterpark with a 310-slip marina, mini golf, campsites andlake-view cabins. ml

NASHVILLECountry music put Nashville on the map, but it’s not this northwesternTennessee city’s only talent. A wide assortment of attractions paint a different picture of this destination from what you might expect —stately southern mansions, exciting outdoor activities, inviting museums,galleries and performing arts institutions.

The Niehoffs’ Two-Year Adventure

THE LOG OF THESAILING VESSEL

ADELAIDEBy Peter Niehoff

Peter and Beth Niehoff boarded their Tayana 52-foot named Adelaide with kids Petersen, Tylerand Suzanna (plus Winston the Sailor Cat) and set course on a life-changing odyssey. Here is thethird in a four-part series recounting their story, as told through the log Peter kept during the trip.

PART III

NOVEMBER 436˚ 55.397 N76˚ 11.339 WNorfolk, Va.

Dear Friends,Last year we slowly worked our way

down the East Coast, but this year, afterhaving spent the summer in Maine, wehave taken a more direct route south,going nonstop from Camden, Maine, to New London, Connecticut, in Long Island Sound. We sailed through NewYork City, stopping in Port Jefferson andPort Washington, before anchoring nearSandy Hook.

We arrived in the Chesapeake on October 4, and anchored for about aweek in the Sassafras River. This was our first opportunity to slow down, catch our breath and relax. Petersen had a datewith the SAT exam in Baltimore, so wearrived early to rent a car. Driving around

a big city took some getting used to! Our next leg includes an offshore

trip from Norfolk, Virginia, to the islandof Antigua, which is located to the southand east of the Virgin Islands. The trip is roughly 1,600 nautical miles as the albatross flies. After leaving the Chesa-peake it will take about four days to reachBermuda, and from there another five orsix days to reach Barbuda, where we hope

to land a day before arriving in FalmouthHarbor, Antigua. We plan to stay in theAntigua area through Christmas, beforeheading further south toward Venezuela.

NOVEMBER 2217˚ 01.273 N61˚ 46.557 WFalmouth Harbor, Antigua

We’ve arrived safely in Antigua, 11 daysafter leaving Norfolk. The direct distancebetween the two points, known as the“rhumb line,” is 1,424 nautical miles, but weather can often make the triplonger. We logged 1,679 NM.

We left Norfolk on November 8, a dayand a half after a strong cold front hadcome through, and just as the next onewas hammering California. We figuredthat we had a three or four day lead on it,and were hustling east as fast as our sailswould carry us. Winds were generallySSE at 12 to 15, occasionally blowing 20to 25. We carried our staysail, reefed jib,and slightly reefed main most of the time,making 6–7 knots.

Two days out of Bermuda, gale

warnings were going up on the EastCoast, as the front had sped up. A lowpressure trough had formed across ourpath. We spent the next 12 hours undershortened sail. Winds blew at a constant30 to 35 five knots, and the seas grew to around 12 feet. Adelaide handled it all quite well. The bow would go under a wave and water would cascade downthe deck. It was noisy, wet, and uncom-fortable, but we got used to it.

Four days after leaving the East Coast,Bermuda came into sight. Bermuda wassunny and warm — what a change from Norfolk!

The entrance to Bermuda’s St. GeorgesHarbor is through a cut in a rock cliff just large enough for a big boat to getthrough. The entrance is well markedwith buoys but most of them are not lit,and they mark some very serious reefs.Bermuda Harbor Radio welcomed us and directed us to the customs dock. It was wonderful sleeping that night in a bed that wasn’t pitching up and down.The next day we explored the harbor

town of St. Georges and did laundry — a lot of our clothes were damp with sea spray.

A front came through early the following day, blowing 25 in the harbor,but much stronger on the ocean. Aftersome discussion it was decided that taking advantage of the strong northwind to blow us south took precedenceover waiting for the seas to subside.Quickly we made the boat ocean ready,cleared customs, and headed out of the cut.

We began to catch fish south ofBermuda. There were prizes for the firstand the largest fish caught. Tyler landed a 30-pound mahi mahi one day south ofBermuda, and then two days later he tiedinto a really big yellowfin tuna. Afterwrestling the tuna on board, we estimated

it to weigh about 120 pounds. It took up most of the aft deck, and Tyler spentall afternoon filleting it. Tyler won both prizes.

We dropped anchor on the 19th inAntigua. The boat and crew accom-plished a major offshore passage, and weare proud.

We expect to spend Thanksgiving and Christmas cruising around Antiguabefore heading further south. We wishyou and your families a wonderful holiday and appreciate your interest in our adventures.

We don’t make thekids do school when we are passaging,as they have watches throughout thenight and shipboard duties.

Christmas was certainly differentfor us this year. It was the first time we have been away from home, and we missed our family and friends. We made the best of it, however. We hung lights around the boat, had a small tree down in the cabin, andplayed Christmas music on the stereo.

The boys have found a placenearby with breaking waves. Mostdays after school they take the dinghyand their surfboards and head out to“catch some waves.” When the wavesare too small to be of interest, they goskurfing, an activity they inventedwhere they tow each other behind the dinghy while they stand on their surfboards.

Winston, our fearless mascot, hashad his own adventure here. The boatbeing anchored stern to the dock con-fronted him with a problem. Normallyhe would simply hop off the boat ontothe pier, but stern to required him toleap over water to reach freedom. Nowit could be that he has gained a fewpounds from all the fresh fish he haseaten or it’s possible that sleeping allday has led to a certain amount of sagin his tummy region, but, for whateverreason, he misjudged the jump once

We hopeto leave on Sunday and will probablysail by the island of Montserrat, withits active volcano (we can see thesmoke from here), and arrive beforesunset. Then it will be on to Dominicawith its rainforests and lovely rivers.The current plan is to get as far southas Grenada before heading north andwest again.

We left Antigua about a month agoand headed for Guadeloupe. It was agood sail and we caught a nice dolphinfor dinner. The island is consideredpart of France, so we had to changemoney into euros and try out our limited French.

Dominica was our next stop. It didnot have the tourist infrastructure thatthe other islands have and is a verypoor island economically. We took a tour into the rainforest and wereshown all sorts of fruits and spices. Just walking along a path, one could findcocoa, vanilla, cinnamon, grapefruit,papaya, bananas and countless otheredible treats. You would not starve on Dominica.

The plan from Dominica is to get as far south as Grenada, which is as far south as we plan to go beingroughly 80 miles from Venezuela, before heading north and west onceagain. We have been in Grenada forthe last 10 days, where we’re gettingsome deck work done. We hiked to a pretty waterfall and plunged into the cold water, a welcome relief afterthe long hike. Our plan is to head to St. Lucia from here to visit friendswho are waiting for us. While sailingdown the island chain we have foundgood winds and easy navigation as the next island appears before the last island fades in the distance.

Cruising and docking in the shadow of the nation’s capital

WASHINGTON, D.C.POTOMAC RIVERAND THE

By Paul Foer

The nation’s capital sits right along the fall line of thePotomac River, and while important decisions maybe made in the grand buildings on shore, it all seemsa bit far away when you’re cruising the river. The citymay not have the skyscraping waterfront or bustle of

Baltimore, Boston, or Norfolk, but it is a delight for boaters, andits marinas and tourism appeal continue to improve. The nearly hundred-mile trip up the Chesapeake Bay

begins at the almost ocean-wide mouth of the Potomac, whereyou might even be out of sight of land. You’ll pass by George Washington’s estate, Mount Vernon, but only tour boats candock there and admission is required. If you want to stay a bit outside the city, tie up at the Belmont

Bay Harbor (703-490-5088, belmontbay.com), in Woodbridge,Virginia, from where you can easily reach Mount Vernon or hop a train straight into D.C. Across the river. Fort WashingtonMarina (301-292-7700, coastal-properties.com) also has greatamenities for transients. Those seeking some urban excitementshould try the upscale National Harbor Marina (301-749-1582,thenationalharbormarina.com), in Maryland, just four miles

south of D.C. With state-of-the-art facilities, shops, hotels,restaurants, and even a casino, it’s a destination unto itself. Floating docks accommodate vessels up to 250 feet, and rentalcars, taxis and water taxis are available to take you to Alexandriaor downtown. From National Harbor by boat, you’ll quickly pass under

the renovated Woodrow Wilson Bridge and arrive in Old TownAlexandria. Today this densely populated city has a busy and attractive waterfront that makes for a fun stop. From there, you’llgo by the Naval Research Lab, a massive under-constructionHomeland Security complex, the Washington Channel, and the mouth of the Anacostia River. Keep an eye out forglimpses of the Lincoln Memorial, the Capitol’s dome, and the Washington Monument.If you’re visiting in late March or early April, you may catch

the famed cherry trees in bloom along the beautifully landscapedTidal Basin waterfront, right next to the Jefferson Memorial.Continuing onward under a series of low bridges, you’ll also crossbeneath one of the region’s Metro lines, and you’ll almost certainlysee jets as they come and go from Reagan National Airport. You

58 MARINALIFE .COM

may even see military helicopters whirring above as they maketheir ways to and from the Pentagon and CIA headquarters.

Next, you’ll cruise by the stunning John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts and the famed Watergate Hotel complex(whose suffix “-gate” spawned a series of scandal-gates now enshrined in history). Grab the binoculars to view Arlington’sNational Cemetery on the Virginia hillside or Georgetown University on a bluff on the Washington side. Across fromforested Theodore Roosevelt Island is the distinctive WashingtonHarbour complex, set in the historic, chic Georgetown neighbor-hood. On summer weekends, this section of the river can be busy as boaters raft up along the wharf to enjoy the urban waterfront scene.

The Washington Channel is like a large canal at the mouth of the Anacostia that is separated from the wider Potomac by acape-like island known as Haines Point. Lining the Washingtonside is the Southwest Waterfront, a long promenade with restaurants, a seafood market, and the Gangplank Marina (202-554-5000, gangplank.com). The Gangplank has securedfloating docks and a restaurant-bar overlooking the water. Themarina, which bills itself as the largest live-aboard community on the East Coast, is within walking distance of the WashingtonMonument and the attractions of the Nation’s Capital.

The channel rounds to the Anacostia and the historic buildings of the National War College at Fort McNair. You’llthen turn up the heavily silted Anacostia, once a waterway for deep-draft sailing. James Creek Marina (202-554-8844, jamescreek.com), which has secured entrances and a fuel dock,welcomes transient boaters. Note the building overlooking themarina: it’s the headquarters of the U.S. Coast Guard.

It’s easy to hop aboard the Metro system from the Gangplankor James Creek. Once you’re in the nearby downtown areas or onthe National Mall, much of the city is walkable, clean, safe and heavily policed. Bicycles can be rented easily, and there is an ever-expanding network of bike paths.

Most of the monuments, museums and galleries on the National Mall are free and open 360 days per year. Well, they’refree if you don’t count your tax dollars. Speaking of which, whynot make an appointment with your congressperson while you’rein town to lobby for more waterway improvement funds? If onlysailors could can some of their “hot air” for becalmed days! You can also try scoring a pass to watch Congress in session or snag tickets to watch the Washington Nationals play ball intheir new stadium.

Sure, it’s a long trip up the Potomac, but staying aboard your boat at any of the fine marinas in and around D.C. can be an exciting and very convenient way to enjoy all that the nation’scapital has to offer. ml

A Paradise LostThe wild Chesapeake oyster was such a prolific creature that its massive reefs werenavigation hazards for early explorers. Itssweet-briny flavor was an irresistible delicacyfor seafood lovers around the globe.

In the heyday year of 1884, Maryland andVirginia watermen pulled in 15 million bushelsof Chesapeake oysters. Some used long tongsto pluck them from the water. Others dredgedthe bay bottom with sharp metal baskets thatscraped up everything in their path, wreakinghavoc on the habitat and leaving lifeless mudin their wake.

The supply seemed endless, and the Bayappeared indestructible, but the ill-fated native oysters couldn’t reproduce fast enoughto compete with human consumption andgluttonous overfishing. Along came MSX and Dermo, a pair of plague-like diseases that killed millions of oysters, and the 2010 harvest plummeted to 185,245 bushels.

Industrial and agricultural pollution alsohad their way with the Bay’s wild oysters.After almost 99% of the Chesapeake oyster

population was depleted, the endangered bivalve cried uncle. Government agencies andenvironmental groups put limits on fishing,created sanctuaries, and went after polluters,but the future of the Bay and its precious oysters was looking pretty bleak.

Hunters and Gatherers Become FarmersA ray of hope has come from a collaborationof watermen, marine biologists, and entrepre-neurs determined to save the Bay’s bivalves bythinking outside the box and bucking tradition.In the 1990s, this group started developing anew method of raising oysters, which aimedto protect them and replenish their numbers— even if it means wild oysters have to live in cages. That’s right … cages.

This innovative concept is called aquacul-ture. Here’s how it works. Rather than relyingon the benevolence of Mother Nature to createfavorable conditions for oysters, aquafarmersintegrate science and technology into the mix.Very little is left to chance.

The process begins in hatcheries, such asHorn Point Lab in Maryland and J.C. WalkerBrothers in Virginia. Fertilized eggs are placedin a customized cocktail of algae and water to provide the nutrients oysters need to grow.The microscopic oyster babies swim aroundfor two to three weeks until they’re ready tomove into nurseries where they continue toeat and mature. At this point, they are so smallthat 500 can fit in the palm of your hand.

In some labs, crossbreeding takes place to create select types of oysters. For example,triploid oysters are engineered with three sets

of chromosomes that leave them sterile. Without the worries of reproduction, triploidscan focus all their attention on growing. Sinceyou don’t want to eat oysters during theirbreeding period, this genetic alteration makesthem available in restaurants any time of the year.

When infant oysters, called “spats,” develop a gluey foot, they attach to hard surfaces like old shells or rocks. Then they’reready to head out into the water, and themagic of aquaculture starts to unfold. Insteadof following the traditional method of dump-ing vulnerable spats into the Bay and prayingthey’ll survive, aquafarmers provide recycledshells where oysters can take hold and placethem into floating cages about the size of acoffee table. These safe cages or “floats” willbe home until they’re full grown. They floaton the water, chained together in rows andhooked up to docks.

Why cages rather than free-ranging? Theyprotect fledgling oysters from predators suchas crabs, stingrays, and human poachers whoare notorious for raiding protected reefs andoyster sanctuaries. Plus, aquafarmers canmove the cages around to make sure they getthe right amount of clean water and algae —and avoid areas that are polluted or prone todisease. And farmers can take their oysters on flatbed trucks for field trips to the ocean’ssalty waters to increase their salinity and flavor.

A Bushel Full of BenefitsWild oysters take two to three years to growto the regulation three-inch market size.Aquaculture oysters only need 12 to 18months, and they’re available year round.

A Tale of Two OystersCan New Aqua Farms Rescue the Bay’s Savory Treasure?

By Susan Elnicki Wade

Imagine tying up the boat on a hot August afternoon and grabbing a seat at your favoritedock bar. With a frosty drink in hand, you think about the cool pleasure of a dozen freshoysters. You picture them nestled in their shells on a silver tray with crushed ice circledaround a tiny dish of cocktail sauce. You almost smell the sprits of squeezed lemon — but then you remember the saying, “Only eat oysters in months with the letter R!”

Fortunately times have changed, and that old wives’ tale doesn’t really apply anymore.Fresh local oysters are available all year round — thanks to new aquafarms that arespreading around the Chesapeake shores and breathing life into the old oyster industry.

Oyster Shells piled high on the Rappahannock Riverin Virginia

Summer 2013 63

And because they’re spawned from nativeChesapeake oysters, watermen don’t need toimport disease-resistant foreign species thatcould cause problems for the ecosystem.

The Bay’s water quality is also reaping bigrewards, because aquafarming is escalating theoyster population. In 2010, Virginia planted76.6 million oysters in Chesapeake waters.Three oysters can clean 165 gallons of waterevery day — that’s enough to fill three whiskeybarrels. Imagine what millions more of themcan do.

Virginia, which embraced aquacultureyears before Maryland, is already seeing economic perks from this new way of produc-ing oysters. Commonwealth hatcheries sold 2 billion oyster larvae for spat-on-shell production in 2012, according to a report by the Shellfish Growers of Virginia. About28.1 million market-sized Virginia-farmedoysters were sold in 2012, generating $9.5 million.

With so much to gain from oyster aquaculture, one of the few remaining obsta-cles is acceptance of change. Generations ofwatermen have earned a living by tonging ordredging oysters from their boats. Convertingthem to this new mode of business will takesome time and positive results.

MARINA SPOTLIGHT > BREWER YACHT YARDS

History of Brewer Yacht YardsBy Olivia Schleicher

Brewer Yacht Yards is well known for running 22 of thelargest full-service marine facilities in the Northeast, all of which are popular destinations for cruisers. It’s hard to believe that it all started with Jack Brewer’s great-grandfather back in 1879, when he opened a hardwarestore in Mamaroneck, New York. While Jack was enrolled

at Columbia Business School, his father called and asked him if hewould be interested in running the boatyard next to the hardwarestore. Jack was hesitant until his father promised to let him run the boatyard entirely on his own. Besides Jack, the boatyard’s onlyemployee was a talented all-purpose worker who taught Jack a lot. In addition to bottom painting and carpentry during the day, Jack wasdoing the bookkeeping at night. “Jack was one of the first people inthe boating industry to treat his boatyard as a business, not a hobby,”says Doug Domenie, vice president and general manager of BrewerDauntless Shipyard. Once the yard became financially successful,Jack decided to expand and, in 1969, purchased Pilots Point Marina, in Westbrook, Conn. From there, Brewer Yacht Yards grew dramati-cally, expanding further in New York and Connecticut, then on into Rhode Island, Massachusetts and Maine.

This year, Jack Brewer decided to step down as president and asked Rives Potts to take on the position. Jack will still be involved as the company’s chairman and will continue to visit each

marina, though not as frequently.The company is celebrating its 50thanniversary next year and is continu-ally looking to acquire new marinasif the right opportunity comes along.

The Brewer Yacht Yard philosophy is one thing that Jack has standardized at each location. He makes sure that facilities provide the best level of customer service by paying close attention to customers’ specific needs. The company strives to ensure that all its facilities are well maintained, constantly updated and kept immaculate, while also staying stocked with the best equipment andtools. Jack Brewer gives managers at each location full authority torun the boatyards as if they were their own. The average manager has been with the organization for 22 years, indicating an extremelyhigh employee satisfaction and loyalty. Jack says that the key to hiscompany’s success is “treating the customer right and having a littlebit of good luck along the way.” He continues, “I have been blessedwith really great managers, and that has enabled us to grow into thebusiness we are today.” No matter what Brewer destination youchoose, you’ll know that you are in excellent hands. ml

They require the skills of swimmers, divers, biologists,

photographers and artists. They are visitors to another

They are underwater photographers, and they

converged in Cuba twice this year, for two special opportunities

to enjoy the archipelago’s beautiful sea bottoms and to learn

about and document, with their photographs, its biodiversity,

conservation and natural beauty.

A world-class event in Cayo Largo

Underwater photography is a competitive sport, and every

year, diver/photographers make their bid to be the best in

the world at presenting the underwater landscape in all of its

beauty. At the same time, they follow established regulations

to ensure that they protect the environment.

For 2013, Cuba was chosen to host the 14th CMAS Underwater

Photography World Championship, sponsored by the CMAS,

the Confédération Mondiale des Activités Subaquatique, in

coordination with the Cuban Federation of Underwater Acti-

vities (FCAS for its letters in Spanish), and the Marlin Nautical

and Marinas business group.

Divers came from 18 countries to participate in the event at Cayo

Largo Sur, from Apr. 8-14, after being selected by their respective

national member federations of the CMAS.

The countries represented were: Argentina, Belgium, Brazil,

Croatia, Cuba, Denmark, France, Germany, Korea, Italy, Mexico,

Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, and

Turkey.

Many teams arrived early to practice their training dives. Once

the championship was underway, teams competed in the catego-

ries of Fish, Close-Up, Close-Up with Theme (the theme was spon-

ges/spongia), Wide Angle, and Wide Angle with Diver.

Spain and Italy dominated the event, and the host country, Cuba,

came in fourth place in the world ranking.

The top three winners were: David Barrio/Spain, world champion

(winner of the gold medal); Stefano Proakis/Italy (silver medal),

and Michele Davino/Italy (bronze). Fourth place went to Daniel G.

Pérez Hernández, from the host team, Cuba.

“This World Championship was a great success for the CMAS and

for the organizers of the FCAS. It shows that even small federa-

tions can plan and perform a successful event, when the water and

the infrastructure equally stand on their side,” the CMAS website

reported in its account of the event.

Guanahacabibes Natural Park: a great place for underwater

photography

A couple of months after the CMAS World Championship,

Cuba hosted another international underwater photography

event: IMASUB 2013, the 3rd International Underwater Photo-

graphy Competition, June 10-13, in Maria la Gorda, a beach in

Guanahacabibes Natural Park, organized by the Gaviota S.A.

tourism group.

Caves, caverns and tunnels, long expanses of white sand, large

and crustaceans make up an interesting underwater landscape in

this beautiful natural park. The transparency of its waters makes

it possible to have visibility of up to 30 meters in depths of 25 to

30 meters.

The IMASUB event was open to underwater photographers

from all over the world, and the only requirement was to com-

ply with the event’s regulations. This year’s 110 participants

were from Argentina, Mexico, United States, Slovakia, Cana-

da, and Cuba.

Competition categories were: fauna (invertebrates, mammals,

tortoises, birds, etc.); macro; environment (general landscape);

and environment with model.

Each participant was able to submit three photos in each ca-

tegory, and 13 prizes were awarded, as well as a Special Pri-

ze, granting the winner the right to three nights at María la

Gorda for two people, with five immersions each. One of the

Cuban competitors, Manuel Pedro Carmenate Martínez, won

the grand prize.

CAPTAIN’S TIPS >

Fuel Additives:Many of the fuel docks thatyou visit likely offer the same gasoline youwould get for your car at a gas station. Using gasoline with the right fuel additive to keep your boat’s engine free of “gunk” isan important way to maximize your boat engine’s fuel efficiency and reduce your engine’s fuel consumption. For example,ValvTect offers boaters specially formulatedfuel already containing the correct additivesand is available at hundreds of fuel docks nationwide, or you can buy the additives atWest Marine stores or other marine suppli-ers. By using ValvTect’s Marine fuel, yourboat’s engine is getting up to four times

more detergent than virtually any brand of automotive gasoline to clean up fuel economy-robbing deposits. Another product,Dieselfusion, helps stabilize fuel and increaseefficiency by up to 18 percent, depending on the engine usage and configuration, andreduces soot by up to 80 percent.

Did you know:Carbon deposits (“gunk”) reduce engineefficiency and performance, and increase fuel consumption.Your boat’s engine(s) can burn up to 20 times more fuel per hour than yourcar or truck.

How to Reduce Your Trips to the Fuel DockThe summer is here, and what is more important than saving money andavoiding the trips to fuel up your vessel? Here are some tips that might helpyou save in the long run while still enjoying your time on the water.

By Joy McPeters

Summer 2013 71

Fuel Computer: All boat owners on thewater today want to squeeze more milesfrom a gallon of fuel. In addition to additives, there is a proven system that accomplishes that goal electronically —FloScan Fuel Computers.FloScan has been designingand manufacturing systems for marine applications for over40 years, and theyhave an unmatchedreputation for accu-racy and reliability,whether your boatruns on gasoline ordiesel, is an outboard, inboard or stern drive.

The heart of the system isFloScan’s failsafe in-line turbine fuelflow sensor, which accurately provides real-time fuel consumption data. The data is routed to a standalone gauge package orthrough FloScan’s FloNET digital modulethat links to the vessel’s chart plotter whereit will provide a readout for gallons-per-hour,miles-per-gallon, and track how many gallons of fuel have been burned since thelast refueling. When you know your boat’sreal-time MPG, you can determine the combination of engine RPM and speed that achieves optimum fuel economy. Thiselusive figure is the key to operating yourvessel in the most fuel-efficient manner.

Did you know:FloScan users report significant reductions in fuel consumption, oftenrunning at higher cruising speeds thanthey did before the system was installed. Savings can range from 5 percent to 20 percent, depending on vessel hull design, engine and drive system.

Diesel Fuel Polishing:Water, bacteria,sludge and dirt contaminate diesel every step of the way — from the time it leaves therefinery to the time it sits in your boat’s fueltank. To avoid problems while underway,start a preventative maintenance program foryour diesel fuel before your boat ever leavesthe dock for a fishing trip or a cruise.

Use a full-spectrum fuel additive each timeyou top off, and polish your fuel regularly.

A top-of-the-line fuel additive, such as AFC-705 Fuel Catalyst, dissolves the filter-clogging residue caused by bacteria,adds lubricity to reduce injector wear and

stabilizes the fuel. Regularly scheduledfuel polishing removes water,

dirt and sludge from yourtank and restores the fuel

to its optimal quality. A bulkhead-

mounted fuel polish-ing system is easy toinstall in your boat’sengine room or engine compartment.

The fuel polishing system is plumbed into

the diesel fuel tank’s pickupand return lines and can operate

on either 12V DC or 120V AC power.The fuel polishing system will perform dialysis for your diesel using a multistage filtration process that recirculates your fueluntil it is clean and free of contaminants.

Did you know:Algae does not grow in diesel fuel. Algaerequires sunlight and air to grow, neitherof which are found at the bottom of afuel tank. What we call algae is actually a stew of bacteria, mold and asphaltenes,which clog fuel filters.Only a small amount of the fuel flowingto a diesel engine is used by the injectors,the rest is returned to the tank and recirculated and reused. This returned fuelis very warm, and the heat contributesto the growth of bacteria and mold at the bottom of the tank where fuel andresidual water interface. Fuel polishingonce or twice a month eliminates those contaminants. ml

Clean, Smooth, and Paint theBottom— Make sure that any protuberances in the hullbottom are smoothed and do not interrupt the water flow.Smoothing bottom paint foreand aft saves fuel and money.

Propellers— Make sure thatyour propellers are perfectly balanced and free of barnaclesand other cling-ons. Check toothat all shaft bearings are prop-erly aligned and not worn out.Minimizing vibration and wearmakes for a more efficient powertrain and saves you money.

Check your Engine(s)— Make sure air and oil filters areclean, transmission and engineoil is changed and clean, and thatitems such as injectors are tunedproperly (black smoke comingfrom your exhaust system usuallyindicates injectors that need to be cleaned).

Use a Fuel Additive— Dissolves the filter-cloggingresidue caused by bacteria, addslubricity to reduce injector wearand stabilizes the fuel.

Install a Fuel Computer— Can help you electronically monitor fuel efficiency.

Use Diesel Fuel Polishing— Will clean your fuel, tank wallsand baffles so they are free of all organic and inorganic contaminants and water.

A Bounty of Billfish (and more!)Mexico’s East Cape Offers Inshore and Offshore Action for Adventurous Anglers Looking for a Quiet Alternative to Cabo San Lucas

By Jeff Merrill

ummer’s a time for travel, and if you’re inclined to plan fishing-oriented vacations but just can’t seem to find that one destinationthat offers a unique blend of near-shore angling opportunitiesand offshore adventures combined with luxurious resorts knownfor their first-class service, excellent accommodations, exquisitedining and superb fishing, then look no further than Mexico’sEast Cape. Approximately 700 miles south of the United Statesin the heart of the Baja California Sur, you’ll find this laid back,quiet locale that’s a stark contrast to that of the hustle and bustle found in Cabo San Lucas.

Several resorts dot the area, though among the most elegantand popular with visiting anglers from around the world are thoseowned by the Van Wormer family, including the magnificentHotel Palmas De Cortez located on the Sea of Cortez in thetiny town of Los Barriles. With oceanfront and garden viewrooms, Hotel Palms De Cortez provides a comfortable home-base for anglers to relax after a long day on the water. There’s a beautiful infinity-edged swimming pool, which overlooks theSea of Cortez, and a swim-up, palapa-roofed cabana bar. Tworestaurants can be found on the premises, including Tio Tico’sand the elegant Bay View Restaurant, which offers indoor andoutdoor dining at the edge of the Sea of Cortez. The chef willalso gladly prepare your catch of the day for a nominal fee. Unlikemany parts of Mexico where consuming water is not advised, alldrinking water from the Van Wormer properties is supplied bymountain springs and is certified for purity. We’ve consumedwater and ice daily during several visits and have had no issues.

The Sea of Cortez is known for its world-class angling andoffers excellent fishing every month of the year. While summerdays on the water can be hot, the fishing can be equally as warmand offers the best shot at a Grand Slam. Big blue marlin andblack marlin as well as sailfish and striped marlin are present ingood numbers while dorado, wahoo and big yellowfin tuna arereadily available. Should you tire of rod-bending action offshore,look for steady pulls from big amberjack, various species ofgrouper, jack crevalle, roosterfish, snapper and sierra along theinshore grounds. Catch and release of all billfish has really gainedin popularity along the region, and most of the captains will encourage their clients to follow this practice. They will gladlyboat any edible species for you to have prepared at the resort orhave it smoked or vacuum bagged and frozen for the trip home.

We’ve all been burned at one time or another by resorts thatclaim to offer seaworthy boats, quality tackle and experiencedcrews. That’s not the case at Hotel Palmas De Cortez, which offers one of the newest and largest fleets of boats found in theregion, including 25’ Super Pangas, 28’ Deluxe and StandardCruisers, and their top-of-the-line Super Cruisers, which rangefrom 29’ to 32’. All are diesel powered and equipped with quality tackle, necessary electronics, including GPS and VHFradios, and required safety equipment. Most crews speak andunderstand English, though honing your Mexican fishing termscan make the conversation flow smoothly when the bite is on.A fishing license is required and can be purchased right at theresort. Cost will vary depending on your length of stay. The

night before your trip, your boat information will be relayed toyou at the fishing office located at the resort, where you’ll be informed of departure time and lunch orders can be placed. Thefollowing morning anglers will gather at the fishing dock, andthe boats will shuffle in to pick up their guests. Once aboard,your crew will inform you of the best fishing opportunitiesavailable and ask what you’d prefer to catch. From there it’s off to the bait boat where fresh bait, both live and dead, are purchased for a modest fee. Next stop is the cobalt blue fishinggrounds, a run of ten to forty miles, depending on the season and species sought. Summer months lack the breeze of springand fall, so often glass-calm conditions are found regardless ofwhere your day on the water takes you.

Offshore fishing will find you trolling artificial lures andballyhoo baits in the spread. Billfish are often spotted from the tower as they sun on the surface while looking for an easymeal. Frigate birds circling above are often a dead giveaway that

there’s a billfish (or more) directly below. The billfish in this region are so plentiful you’ll often spot pods of sailfish and pairs,triples and quads of striped marlin on the surface. During a recent trip, as my son was busy battling a hefty striped marlin, a sailfish popped up within pitch bait range of the panga wewere fishing aboard. A quick toss of a frisky live bait was all ittook to get me hooked up, and we released a father and sondouble header of billfish just moments apart.

If the fishing action isn’t enough to keep you busy duringyour stay, there’s plenty to do ashore. In addition to shopping in the village of Los Barriles, numerous parks, historical andcultural sights can be found. You can take a horseback ride onthe beach or rent a jet ski, ATV, or wave runner, go snorkelingor scuba diving to several national parks and numerous coralreefs. Sierra Laguna National Park is a beautiful spot where you can enjoy the lush foliage and admire birdlife around thewaterfalls. Guided tours are available to local towns, includingCabo San Lucas, La Paz, Todos Santos, Miraflores and theSantiago Zoo. There’s also a 9-hole executive golf course on the property of the resort.

It’s hard to imagine a more peaceful location that offers so much for the visiting angler, and while Mexico has received a lot of bad press in recent years, here’s a vacation destinationwhere you’ll find friendly, soft-spoken locals amidst a smalltown that’s safe to visit with your entire family. When you combine the lights-out fishing as well as other land-based activities and a first-class resort, the East Cape and HotelPalms De Cortez should be on your bucket list! ml

For more information visit vanwormerresorts.comand marlintinisportfishing.com.

Sailfish, which often exceed 100 pounds,are abundant and readily inhale live baits

when they’re spotted tailing on the surface.

Roosterfish will readily attack live bait slow-trolled along the shallow,sandy bottom.

Searching the CoastBy Victoria Allman

Patrick and I bounced downthe string of beach townsfrom Malibu to San Diego.We both had our own agendas. While Patricksearched for waves to surf,

I was on the hunt for the perfect fish taco.In Huntington Beach, we ate grilled

fish smothered in a piquant mango salsa. At Seal Beach, the fish tacos were drizzledwith a white sauce called crema that drippedthrough my fingers and splattered when ithit the wooden picnic table. In Encinitas, the wave called Swami’s brought howls ofdelight from Patrick when it rolled overheadand moans of ecstasy from me when we devoured three crispy, crunchy bundles of tuna tacos.

From beach town to beach town, wewound down the costal highway pastcanyons cut deep into the hills on our left and the perfectly timed rolling sets that Patrick yearned for on our right. I was finding that there were as many differentversions of a fish taco as there were waves in the ocean, but the one thing they all hadin common was the lightly charred corn tortillas they were wrapped in.

Fish tacos weren’t something I’d madebefore, and I felt I needed guidance. I headedto downtown San Diego to El Vitral, the2010 winner of Riviera magazine’s BestMexican Restaurant award, to ask chefNorma Martinez her secret.

“As a native of Tijuana, I grew up eatingtortillas.” Norma rolled her r’s, making

tortillas sound sexy. “Every morning, I eatthe first tortilla hot off the press. I spread it with frijoles and taste to make sure the flavors are clean to highlight the fish.”

I took a bite of my fish taco as Normaspoke. It was true. They were clean tasting.The crunch of the beer batter gave way tosoft white fish. The crisp cabbage saladcooled, and the chipotle cream zigzaggedover the top left a luscious feel in my mouth.

“Traditional Mexican food is healthierthan the fast food you see in typical tacostands,” Norma said. Baja California, thehome of the fish taco, is an eight-hundred-mile-long peninsula dividing the PacificOcean and the Sea of Cortez. It stands to reason that fish features prominently in the cuisine. According to Norma, Asian

fishermen’s wives began deep-frying theirhusband’s catch in tempura and paired itwith the local salsas and warm tortillas to sell on the street while their husbands wereaway. Tacos de pescado didn’t need the help ofa coyote to cross the border into San Diego— they slipped across easily and set up shopas the city’s favorite dish. Surfers like Patricklong ago fell in love with fish tacos’ simple,inexpensive ease.

“There are very few flavors in a good fishtaco,” Norma told me. “Just make sure youhave good-tasting ingredients, fresh canolaoil and fresh beer batter.” Her wide, toothysmile reflected her love of the food she spokeof. “ The rest is all about the cerveza youdrink it with.”

Back home on the boat, I wanted to savor that fresh, flavorful feeling of sitting inthe California sunshine and biting into thewarm bundles. But as I rolled and pressed,my stack of tortillas never grew in size. Asfast as I could remove them from the skillet, they were snatched by the crew, smearedwith butter and inhaled. It took me doublingthe recipe and pressing thirty-six disks toproduce enough tortillas for a lunch for sixpeople — leading me to believe that fishtacos aren’t only a staple for surfers, but onefor boaters as well. ml
