Waterway Golf
It all started many years ago when Karen and I were helping her parents bring their boat down the Intra-coastal Waterway (ICW) from Baltimore to Satellite Beach. We were approaching Barefoot Landing in Myr-tle Beach when I noticed cables stretching across the waterway. I thought they were too high to be power lines, and then I noticed a cable car crossing over the waterway. In this part of Myrtle Beach there are a lot of amusement parks, tourist shops and restaurants, so I thought that it might be part of some amusement park. As we got closer, I noticed that the cable car was carry-ing golf clubs. In this section of the waterway the ICW appears to be a ditch, with the trees along the shoreline looking like walls towering above it. From the vantage point of a sailboat, it is difficult to see much of anything except the tree lined walls and the cable car with the golf clubs hanging off the sides.
I bring this up because I just returned from four days in Myrtle Beach, where I go every year to meet some Newfoundland high school friends to eat, drink and tell lies. About five years ago, we decided that while we were in Myrtle Beach we might as well play some golf. In this part of South Carolina (as I imagine in most of South Carolina) there are golf courses everywhere. Driving in from Florida, I must have passed twenty of them. The hotel recommended a place called The Wa-terways, which was only a couple of miles up the road, so we made a tee time for the next day.
The directions led us right down the main drag where all the businesses were located. As we approached we saw signs for everything, Calabash Restaurant, Out-back, Ross, the Doll House, and oh, there it was, the Waterways. As we pulled into the parking lot, between the Doll House and Sassies, I noticed something very familiar. It was the cable car that I had passed under numerous times while traveling the waterway. I immedi-ately announced that I had been under this cable car more times than I had been across in it. Every year I would tell the people working the cable car about my travels under the cables while doing the waterway, but this year it was different. After recalling the number of times we have played this course and the number of times that we did the waterway, I think I have jumped the shark and have now been over the waterway more times than I have been under the cable car.

THOUGHTS FROM
YOUR COMMODORE
John Geraci
The Four Seasons
Fall is here! Ah, yes – note the hint of coolness in the air, that snap which is present in the mornings, the leaves turning colors – NOT! While some places in the great U.S. have all four of the official seasons, we do not. In my residence in Florida, I have observed the fol-lowing seasons:
Summer: This season lasts about nine months, the sun shines, most of the time, and we hold our summer races and dodge the 95-plus heat through air conditioning or sitting under the bimini. Summer heralds the boat work-ing season, where you grab your tools and head down to the boat to repair/fix/improve/restore your baby – I should know, I’ve been doing all of the above for years on my boat, and there still are more repairs/fixes/improvements/restorations yet to be done. Summer is also the time to pack away your headsail and break out that expanse of fabric that is greater than 140% of your fore-triangle to be able to sail in the light breezes of summer. It is the season of iced tea (decaf in my glass); in fact, iced anything in a glass works.
Love Bug: This season actually occurs twice a year separated by some summer months. It is a trying sea-son, where you try and wash their little bodies off your gel coat, as they have swarmed all over, literally dying to become part of your paint. While in the Eau Gallie Boat Works, I have personally witnessed a cloud of love bugs – the sky darkened and you had to hold your sleeve up to your mouth to prevent inhaling the little beasties. They are attracted to exhaust fumes, so your diesel stirs them into a frenzy. Yuck!
Tourist: This season is the invasion of brightly colored, pale-skinned tourists (like I should talk, with my blinding white farmer’s tan) that flock to the beaches and hang around the causeways looking at the boats. While they are not specifically hazards to boat navigation, they do tend to be hazards to navigating to our boats, the local canvas shop and West Marine. They flock to our favor-ite restaurants and ask lots of questions about that boat you just stepped off. Usually, they want to know how far away the amusement park or the Space Center is or to speculate on how long it would take to get to Miami by boat. They’re fun – much more so than the love bugs.
Hurricane: This season lasts five months and is fraught with anxiety, tying bowline knots, placing and retrieving

Women’s Racing Susan Jackson
Women’s racing in Brevard County has come far since its inception in 2002, by Sherry Beckett McCampbell. As I understand it, the goal then, as today, was to give more women opportunities to participate in sailboat rac-ing in a non-threatening way. ECSA women’s racing continues to offer a female-friendly atmosphere condu-cive to learning and camaraderie, i.e. no yelling, no pressure.
Being with and learning from other women is easy and downright fun. The friendships that develop between women racing together and racing against each other are special. For some, being on an all women’s team offers an alternative to the effort of turning a husband/wife relationship into a skipper/crew relationship. We get to do things our own female way. Skippers support oth-er skippers, and teams support other teams. Where men use brute force, we finesse and problem solve. We like the female world, and the opportunity to use our brains.
Since the beginning, women’s racing included the op-tion of having a male observer onboard for safety. While the crew learned their positions and the skipper learned to drive a race boat, the man onboard could watch but not touch. The original idea was that he was available for emergencies, to keep both people and boat safe. Then, as now, many women did not own boats, and most did not have the decades of experience some male coaches could offer. Women’s racing began with borrowed boats and male coaches, and that tradition continues today. The function of the male observer seems to have evolved over the years to coach/tactician. We are grateful for the male support, mentor-ing and friendships.
This past weekend was MYC’s 33rd Annual Mermaid Regatta. Results can be found on sail-race.com. What fun it was, with two days of racing, Plantar’s Punch de-livered dockside to tired racers, and a fabulous dinner/party all organized by Rachele Ross. Rachele is respon-sible for the success of our Mermaid Regattas for 33 years now. On the race course were a class of four J-24s, a class of three PHRF boats, and a Fun Fleet of eight boats. There were some teams who have been together for years and some who were meeting for the first time. Some chose to race with a male coach and some without.
One-design racing of the J-24s is helping us raise the bar for women’s racing. With boats somewhat equal in crew and fairly equal in boat speed, boats are close to-gether on the race course. It means we have to know the racing rules, especially at the starts and on mark

Upcoming Cruises
October 15-16 Erik and Anne-Dominique Haas
This is the third edition of this overseas flair cruise. This year Anne-Dominique and Erik will be catering Italian style. Que bella!
Although the official cruise is scheduled for Saturday the 15th, come as you please starting Friday the 14th, in the evening. We will have drinks and munchies on the dock if anyone shows up. Saturday, you can dinghy to Boy Scout island just across the ICW, walk or run along River Road (the local name for Rockledge Drive), enjoy the scenery or the swimming pool at the house, or just relax in the back yard and play some bocce games.
We will do a live Osso bucco cooking at 3 p.m. on Sat-urday. Dinner is at 5:30 p.m., with Mozzarella Caprese, ossi buchi with pasta, and the best tiramisu you will ev-
er taste. As usual we provide food, but BYOB or foods if the menu is not compatible with your diet.
Breakfast on Sunday is at 9 a.m.
The anchorage is located about 2.5 miles south of the 520 causeway on the west side of the ICW. When com-ing from the north, steer at 190° for half a mile after passing red marker 80. From the south, go straight west when passing green marker 83. In both cases you will see our boat Marathi moored there in 8 feet of water.
There is plenty of water in all this area. The dock south of Marathi has 5+ feet of water at its end, and there is a ladder for dinghy on the south side of it. Our house is 60 yards up the street on the right, at 18 Magruder Ave. in Rockledge FL 32955.
Erik and Anne-Dominique
Mediterranean Cruise 2011 — Italy!
There is something in the air - Pinedaville 2011! The event will be held on the Merritt Island end of the Pinedaville causeway, on either the North or South shore depending on the weather. As I think about a theme, I hear the words wafting in my brain: “…Just sit right back and you’ll hear a tale, a tale of a fateful trip that started in this tropic port…”, so Gilligan’s Island could be our theme. Whatever your attire, your attend-ance is required for maximum fun.
Nominations for King and Queen will be at the “island” on the day of the event. The official kickoff will be at noon on Saturday, November 5th. When you arrive at the beach please stop by our registration booth and sign in. All your guests must be with you as no one will be admitted without a hand stamp or nametag. At the registration table you will have an opportunity to vote for the Pinedaville King and Queen. Voting will be closed once dinner is served. The winners will be an-nounced from the DJ booth sometime after dinner when the votes have been tallied.
Music will be on the menu as plans solidify. At 4:30 p.m. we will have the Conch blowing contest, and din-ner will follow. Other games will be announced through-out the evening (Limbo, Hula Hoop contest, etc.).
The club will provide dinner; members are requested to bring additional food items according to boat size and or mode of transportation:
Landlubbers: hors d’oeuvres, chips, dips, salsas
0 to 29 ft vessels: dessert type foods
30 to 35 ft vessels: salads; macaroni, potato, green
35 ft and above: hot side dishes such as potatoes, beans, rice etc.
We have a great need for firewood so if you have it, bring it. Beach fires will start sometime near dark, and if you have the fixings, we’ll have s’mores. We plan to enjoy ourselves well into the evening so come ready to have a good time.
Potluck breakfast will be at 8:30 a.m. Sunday morning, followed by beach cleanup and breakdown. Any help will be appreciated.
Just one more thing — we will be clearing the beach the Saturday before, October 29th. All hands are wel-come; come with rakes, weed-eaters, pruners, shovels, gloves, and elbow grease. The fun begins at 10 a.m.
We look forward to seeing you on the “island”!

Secretary’s Report (continued from page 4)
NEW BUSINESS:
November through March Meeting Place Change: Due to renovations being made at the Satellite Beach Civic Center, we are changing our meeting location to the David R. Schechter Center, which is located on the corner of South Patrick Dr. and Jackson Street in Sat-ellite Beach. The November through March meetings will be held at this temporary location.
We welcomed additional guests Heidi and Christopher Salmon. They own a Bruce Roberts ketch which they keep at the Melbourne Yacht Club. They would like to become members. They were provided with a member-ship form.
John Schnitzius asked members to check out the nauti-cal merchandise he has for sale during the break.
The price of our wonderful burgee, which is free to new members, is going up to $25.00 due to our cost in pur-chasing them.
50/50 drawing: Robert Baird won the drawing.
Cherie Baird provided goodie bags to those who could answer questions about the September newsletter. Winners were Karen Coleman and Adrianne Goldstein.
This evening’s program is presented by Jules Rutstein of Bethel Marine.
The meeting was adjourned at 7:31 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,
Nancy Keane, Secretary
This may have been the best ECSA Fort Pierce cruise yet - and not just because we were the hosts. The weather was wonderful all weekend and we had many participants this year. Joe and I left home on Alibi Thursday morning and motor-sailed to an anchorage south of the Sebastian Inlet, well off the channel, close to A1A where it was calm, but there was enough breeze to keep us comfortable. We were joined by Don and JoAnne Theriault on Impulse and John and Lynda Geraci on Avventura. Joe cleaned Avventura’s thru-hulls before a light sprinkle and threat of more kept us on our own boats.
Friday we continued on to the Ft. Pierce City Marina, where they had reserved a single dock for all of the ECSA arrivals. Also arriving on Friday were Bruce and Pat Fletcher on Little Attitudes, Bob and Judy Pavan on Alta Mar, and Jesse and Carmen Camp on Cool Breeze. After checking in at the marina office, we checked in at the Tiki Bar and meandered through the
Friday Fest booths next to the marina, finding plenty to see and eat. Again there was a nice breeze off the wa-ter and low humidity so it was very pleasant. Before returning to the boats, we made our mandatory stop at Uncle Carlo’s Gelato Shop.
Saturday morning was the Farmers Market with arts and crafts at the adjoining lot, so we were easily enter-tained – and full. Some walked around the downtown area and others revisited the Tiki Bar. Saturday arrivals were Simon Koumjian and Eileen Kiesel on Ginny II (out of mothballs at last!), Rick and Suzanne Crockett on Maverick, Bob Wiley and Robert Baird on Judith III, and Cherie Harp-almost-Baird, and Dave and Nancy Keane by car. We had a drinks-and-hors d’oeuvres party at the end of the pier, again with that lovely breeze, before the gelato run.
Sunday morning we all met for breakfast at the Yellow-tail Grille before going off to do our own things for the

Labor Day Fort Pierce Cruise Review
This put me in a dilemma: do I find another golf course to play, or do I plan a trip in Alibi and go under it again? After serious consideration, I decided that life is too short and, now that I am retired, I can do both.

the anchor into the lake/mangroves/neighbor’s yards. It gives us the opportunity to field-strip our boats and then smartly re-dress them. We cautiously watch the computer predictions (which are no better than the weatherman’s forecasts) as to which path the newest storm will take, only to be driven to the point of pulling all of the material off the boat, only to have to haul it back on deck because the storm of the century is re-ally turning out to sea and is headed towards my sis-ter’s house in Schoodic point, Maine. (And she thought she wouldn’t have to deal with hurricanes that far north – HAH!)
One thing that I have come to enjoy, are those glimpses of the “other” seasons – you know, Fall and Spring (we don’t have Winter here) and it gives me a chance to break out my winter coat when the temper-ature falls below 70 degrees.
See you between the seasons,

roundings. We need to know whether it’s a 360 or 720 penalty when we tap another boat, who’s on starboard when going downwind, and who’s on star-board when an upwind J-24 approaches a downwind PHRF boat. Team members’ individual abilities are put to the test, as well as the team’s ability to work in sync. Oh, what fun!
Racing among women is fun, competitive, and coop-erative. Friendships are built and strengthened. Skills are developed. We are making gains in the number of boats participating. One of the attractions of racing is the sense of independence and self-reliance it of-fers. It’s a chess game that can’t be beat. You are invited to participate and support us in our efforts to have fun and evolve women’s racing.

day. Dave and Marci Hutson, Chip and Louise Wor-ster, and Tom and Mary Ann O’Shea drove down in time to meet with us all for an early dinner at Cobb’s Landing – and the last chance for gelato at Uncle Carlo’s.
Monday morning, we all threw off the dock lines and headed home. It was generally agreed that it was a very enjoyable cruise in every respect.
