The Commodoresrsquo Cup

Race was held August

club boats that partici-

pated Congratulations to

PC Park McRitchie and

crew of JEB III for their

first place finish in the

PHRF class Feet Cap-

tain of Power Jim Miller

and his crew took first in

the JAM class I was alittle confused why Jim

got towed in after the

racemaybe itrsquos tradi-

tion or something Any-

way we enjoyed beauti-

ful weather and a nice

pot luck dinner on the

deck after the race This

event dates back to 1971

when then Commodore

Chick Schaffner organ-

ized the first race and it

remains a solid tradition

and hopefully for many

more years to comeThis month we will be

renovating the ceiling and

replacing the lighting in

the kitchen The new

lighting is long overdue

and should really

brighten the room up

Be sure to visit the Shiprsquos

Store this month Carolyn

Nitz is constantly bringing

in new and fresh items

for sale Itrsquos never tooearly to shop for the Holi-

days

I would like to recognize

Eric Gloria and the

flower committee for

keeping the grounds

looking incredible this

year The Club has never

looked better

Thatrsquos all for now and I

look forward to seeing

you around the ClubThat is unless Terry and I

are at some corner of

one of the 5 Great Lakes

looking at another boat

JUNIOR BAY WEEK 2015BY EMMA EICKERT

Hello my name is Emma Eickert and I am 15 years old I am a student at Port Clinton High School and amember of the Port Clinton Yacht Club Jr Sail Team This July was my ldquorookierdquo year at the I-LYA Jr Bay

Week Regatta For those of who donrsquot know itrsquos a big sailing race that lasts a week at Put-In-Bay on SouthBass Island every summer for dinghy sailors all over Lake Erie and other inland lakes Irsquove been in the PCYCLearn to Sail program for as long as I can remember only hearing of experiences I would encounter on theisland during that week Only now do I know what they were talking about For example getting up superearly to rig boats the amazing food and even better food staff the ldquono wheelsrdquo rule and to expect brutallyslow races one day and howling winds the next I thought I was told everything I possibly needed to knowabout the regatta

All sailing season mostly the same teams and the same sailors come to all of the same regattas and as aldquorookierdquo I began to see some familiar faces in the 420 fleet which I sailed in My crew Ethan Taylor and Iwould occasionally say ldquoHey nice racerdquo or ldquoI like your life jacket which club are you fromrdquo It was usualsailing small talk for the ldquorookierdquo 420 boat from PCYC Now comes Jr Bay Week and Ethan and I learn thatthose faces have names and personalities too that we really grewto like All of a sudden those faces were around us 247 rigging

boats eating breakfast launching from the ramp starting and fin-ishing races and walking to the hotel with us At the end of ourrace days wersquod meet up with those faces that had become ourfriends to grab some ice cream We even realized one girl we be-friended happened to be the skipper of a boat we t-boned the re-gatta prior There were no hard feelings and we couldnrsquot help butto laugh at the irony

I had never known how tightly knit the junior sailing communitywas until I had experienced Jr Bay Week On the water wersquore allcompetitors trying to beat our friends from the other clubs up thecourse On land wersquore all asking those friends how they did andrehashing on that daysrsquo worth of racing Before the end of theweek phone numbers were exchanged plans for other regattas

were made and boats were strapped down for the ferry ridehome At the beginning of the week on the ride to the island Ithought I knew everything there was to know about Jr Bay WeekOn the ride back to the mainland I knew I was wrong I didnrsquotknow how quickly the skippers and crews that finished near mewould become my friends People I could laugh with trust for ad-vice and will miss until next summer when the sailing season willstart back up Although we had some memorable races and fin-ishing places what topped off my experience at Jr Bay Week wasthe fun and good times I had bonding with my team and sailorsfrom across the lake that I look forward to seeing next year
