Vice Commodore’s Message

Atta Piliram

A pril was quite a month with a few planned activities and a cruise-in. I also had a chance to travel to Australia to visit my sister and Alice’s sister and their families. We are slowly gearing up for more planned activities for the

months to come. Here are some of the activities we have planned for you: On May 4th, we have our annual Floato de Mayo dinner event and then on May 18th we have a

Turkish dinner event with Roger Ladwig and his wife as our guest speakers to talk about their trip to Turkey. Glen Cove YC plans to visit us on May 25th. June will be another eventful month with our sec-ond annual Taste of Louisiana crawfish event. We had a blast last year. Then on June 22nd will have our Pig Roast dinner event. So, please try to join us and let the good times roll.

On a personal note, as some of you know, my daughter Darya is being deployed to Afghanistan as an Army civilian in May for the next ten months. Even though she has been on research missions in the past, including the Navy’s Comfort and Mercy hospital ships, contracting for research in a war zone will keep us anxious for many months to come.

March EVENTS

Dinner Event:

• My thanks to Reggie Smith for hosting the EYC Cruise-in event on March 30 and 31 while I was in Australia. I’d also like to extend my thanks to everyone who helped out with that event.

Rear Commodore’s Report

Steve Lane

T IYC Shamrock Shenanigans Regatta kicked off spring at our club. It truly was a fun event with four finely tuned racing boats (buckets?) participating. After a great training class taught by Anthony Cirillo on anchoring and a continental breakfast provided by Alice Pilram, it was off to the races. The crews of the four boats Grand Turk V,

Zephyr, Serendipity and Tonic jogged (walked) to their boats from the club house and were off. After some light wind sailing around the lee of YBI, the fleet raced to McCovey cove by ATT Park were Jim and Sandra Aberer were waiting on board the committee boat, El Nido, with Anthony and all to judge the anchoring skills of the racers. Then back to TI for the finish an Irish dinner once again prepared by Alice. Oh yea, we handed out some fine awards of no real value. Everyone came in first or last – needed to be there.

Thanks for all of the great support by the club for this event.

So on to upcoming events:

Boat Inspections: We are planning to have the USCG AUX conduct safety inspections on our fleet. This is a great service we can use. Date: May 18th.

A mong well-funded America's Cup teams, it's been a longtime tradition to build at least two boats so that differ-ent design subtleties can be assessed

during boat-on-boat training sessions. With the launch of Oracle Team USA's second AC72 yesterday at San Francisco's Pier 80, the 'home team' now has that capability.

Although the team's CEO Russell Coutts did-n't give details about specific differences be-tween the first and second boat, he did ac-knowledge the monumental effort put forth to produce it, while hinting at its much-improved speed potential: "It represents extreme per-formance and extreme engineering. It repre-sents a significant improvement in perform-ance over where we’ve been before. And probably most importantly, this represents the boat that is going to defend the America’s Cup, for America, in America.”

In the aftermath of the now-famous capsize of the team's first boat last October — which re-sulted in its wing mast breaking up offshore — they went through a frustrating period when on-the-water training was stalled. But now, with two boats on the water, it's obvious that spirits are high and all systems are go: “Now, it really feels like we have everything pointed in the right direction," said trimmer Joey Newton, "and we’re starting to make pretty big steps. We’ve got high hopes for this boat, and I’m sure it’s going to be fast.”

The Eight Bells Ceremony conducted by our commo-dore was included at the conclusion of the dedication of the Jenny Lind monument in Alviso on Saturday, April 13th.

An LA Times article recognized TIYC noting that, “Russell Breed, vice commodore [sic] of the Treasure Island Yacht Club, rings a ship’s bell eight times, sig-nifying “all’s well,” during the Jenny Lind monument ceremony in San Jose.”

T he Treasure Island shoals were a 735-acre sandbar, sub-

merged between 2 and 26 feet beneath the surface of

the bay. They had long presented a navigational hazard

for mariners, and since they couldn’t be built on or sailed over,

were considered nothing more than waste territory. Of course,

the idea of planting a massive artificial island in the middle of

San Francisco Bay's fragile ecosystem is one that would never

get off the ground today, but remember, it's the thirties, we're

thinking big, and contemporary concepts of ecology or environ-

mental protection lie a long, long way in the future.

And so it was settled. The Junior Chamber began to lean on city

officials to have the state legislature transfer the underwater

property to San Francisco. And though that's what happened, it's

just the beginning of the story. Factoring in the speed of bu-

reaucracy -- glacial then as it is now -- it would have taken dec-

ades before work on the airport project would even begin.

AN ISLAND AND A WORLD'S FAIR

A Celebration of Bridges

The San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge under construction in

January of 1935. Note Yerba Buena Island in foreground. - San

Francisco History Center, San Francisco Public Library

But then in 1933, a San Francisco real estate man named Joseph

Dixon wrote a letter to the editor of the San Francisco News. He

pointed out that the completion of our two gorgeous bridges, our

pair of cutting-edge "wonders of the world" was something to

celebrate, and made a modest suggestion. Why not hold a

World's Fair to show them off?

This idea caught fire in San Francisco, particularly in political and

business circles. Mayor Angelo Rossi stuck a white carnation in

his lapel and jumped on board with both feet. The rest of the

city, stirred by pride and local patriotism, was right behind him.

But there were other reasons to push the idea forward. The

bridges were certainly something to crow about, but at the depth

of the Depression, the thought of the money that would be at-

tracted by an International Exposition made the whole region

salivate. And on top of that, a World's Fair would give San Fran-

cisco a chance to proclaim itself the natural American gateway to

the Pacific, thereby staking a claim to leadership of this newly

ascendant cultural and economic region.

With the whole city whipped into an enthusiastic froth, the

Bridge Celebration Founding Committee was formed by business

leaders to consider the vital question of "Where?". A bevy of ar-

chitects was engaged to review potential locations. The govern-

ment-owned military lands of the Presidio were considered, as

was the Lake Merced area in the south-east. Golden Gate Park

seemed like a natural site, with one plan even suggesting that

the city acquire all the land between the Park and City Hall, de-

molishing the existing structures and rebuilding the whole swath.

The bay-filled lands of China Basin and Hunters Point were also

discussed, but each of these sites had some major disadvantage.

Golden Gate Park? Too fragile! Lake Merced? Too foggy! China

Basin? Too ugly! But Yerba Buena Shoals.... hmm! A barge was

dispatched to the spot, and a little test drilling showed that the

shoals could indeed support a man-made island.

As the World's Fair debate raged on, the Junior Chamber of

Commerce was still thinking airport. Citizens tend to doze off at

the very mention of a public works project, but the Junior Cham-

ber quickly realized that World's Fair-fever provided a wonderful

opportunity to kick-start their airport dream. In fact, if they could

get, say, 400 acres of Yerba Buena Shoals filled for the Fair,

their airport could take over the artificial island the moment it

was over... and if one of the ventures lost money it could pay

the expenses of the other!

The idea was a natural, though admittedly that term sounds a bit

odd in reference to a manufactured land-mass. The World's Fair

site would be right in the middle of the bay, more or less equally

accessible from all parts of the Bay Area. Legions of ferry boats

already cut through these waters at an astonishing rate, shut-

tling 250,000 people a day across the bay. The Bay Bridge had

been designed to use Yerba Buena Island as a stepping stone,

and now that opportune placement would provide a convenient

link to the Fair from both sides of the Bay. Visitors would even

be able to take the train, since in those good old days, public

transportation in the form of rail -- part of the old "Key System" -

- was planned to roll along the bridge's lower deck. Endorsement

of the new island wasn't to be that easy, of course. As soon as

the mid-bay plan for the Fair was revealed by the Bridge Celebra-

tion Committee, objections began to fly. Many were concerned

that a site outside of the city might "bring a profit to Oakland at

the expense of San Francisco"! With some foresight, a member

of the Junior Chamber retorted, "the time has come for San Fran-

cisco to throw off the yoke of provincialism and smug satisfaction

and work in harmony with her sister cities ... to achieve her de-

sired greatness, now threatened by ... Southern California." The

San Francisco Board of Supervisors were hopelessly deadlocked.

After days of conflict, they abdicated the final decision, throwing

up their hands and putting the matter to a public vote. The con-

clusion? The good people of San Francisco were in favour of

building the new island -- but they did. ©

Women of TIYC,

Wanted to share this with you. My friends and mentors Linda Newland and Gail Hine are on the board this year. Many of you met Nancy Earley when she gave two presenta-tion last year. She is also active, so the west coast is well represented. Many courses are listed through nwsa. We are still working on dates to bring the radio and gps sessions to TIYC. Stay tuned.

Also heads up...Island Y C in Alameda will have their women’s sailing seminar (WSS) now scheduled for the last weekend of Sep-tember. Rumor has it that some of our non-resident members may be flying in. More details to follow. Lynette

AC World Series

Gives a peek at what’s to come during Louis Vuitton and AC34 2013 By S/C Reg Smith

What would appear to be the brainchild of Sir Russell Coutts, CEO of Oracle Racing (US), and Paul Cayard, head of Artemis Racing (Sweden), has turned into a healthy tune-up to the America’s Cup competi-tion, which will be held from July to October of this year on San Francisco Bay.

The tweaking of the sailing broadcast has re-sulted in vast improvements -- visually stunning backgrounds and much improved audio of the action on the water. Being able to hear the participants and their discussions in real time is a feat that puts the television spectator at the heart of the action.

While the aforementioned aspects have im-proved the viewer experience, the critical element of timing the races within the commercial breaks is still a work in progress. Variable wind speeds could be the culprit, but you would think that someone would have been able to figure that critical detail out by now.

The ten teams participating in the AC World Series made for a spectacular fleet race, which seem to be the viewer favorite over match racing. Since the first AC race in 1851 was, in fact, a fleet race, the pur-ists may want to reconsider their objection to having fleet racing as part of the Louis Vuitton Cup Series. The addition of spectators from the six countries not participating in the America’s Cup would have brought the event closer to the fervor of Valencia 2007, which as a participant I found to be, as others

have said, one of the best Cup experiences a recrea-tional sailor could ask for.

Only the yacht clubs from Italy(Luna Rossa Challenge) Circolo della Vela Sicilia, New Zealand(Emirates Team New Zealand) Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron, and Sweden(Artemis Racing) Kun-gliga Svenska Segelsäll skapet will vie for the Louis Vuitton Cup this summer, making the field of partici-pants smaller and arguably, less exciting. The AC World Series, however, can serve as a template for the future of professional yacht racing. The excitement and challenge of fleet racing may be a harbinger of things to come.

Seeing young Tom Slingsby lead Oracle Racing to victory was one of the highlights of the event. With Jimmy Spithill and Russell Coutts sitting out the ac-tion in Naples, Italy, the Men’s laser Gold Medal win-ner of the 2012 Olympic games (Slingsby) proved that he can go up against the best sailors in the world and hold his own. The deck work of the French was im-pressive, and Italian Francesco Bruni and his all Ital-ian crew won the Sunday fleet race and showed that the Italians could be the “Cinderella” team this sum-mer.

Will the recreational sailor have an enjoyable and exciting experience during the next six months? Let’s hope so. While we may have lost some non sail-ors to NASCAR, the future of televised sailing looks promising. ©
