Beach House forRent to Benefit

LMPS!!Enjoy a beautiful home and help

us rebuild our boat ramp.

We havea rampwashout problematFlotilla Island and no funds available to fix it. I was talkingto some newer members (Janet and Johnny Floyd) about this and they had an idea that may helpsolve the ramp problem. She works in Real Estate sales and has a 2nd Row beach house onSurfside Beach that she can get for LMPS use during any week during the month of October.It is a fairly new 3 bedroom, 3 bath home just off the beach in the heart of SurfsideBeach. Rented 3 months during prime season, it is reserved for the owner's family and friendsthe rest of the year. She has it worked out where LMPS groups can “rent” the property for adonation to LMPS. Members could call Janet and reserve the house for their desired weekendor week . There would be no charges for the “rental”. However, a donation of $500 or moreto the Lake Murray Ramp Fund would be a nice and honorable thing to do. The house rentsfor over $1,900 a week during the season through Surfside Realty so it is a heck of a deal forLMPS.

This is only available for Lake Murray Power Squadron Members and their families that makethe donation directly to the LMPS treasury. LMPS member Janet Floyd would handle thereservation and details with the rental company or lessors. Surfside is about 20 miles from thewaterfront in Georgetown and next to Myrtle Beach. The house is "Dream Maker" on theSurfside Rental and Realty company site. http://www.surfsiderealty.com/booking/dream-maker/DREAMMAKER#t-rates. Check it out and give Janet a call at 803319-7459 in Lexington or Email her at [email protected] if you want to takeadvantage of this. You can also contact me, Jerry Wise, at [email protected].

Public Forum on Boating SafetyOnTuesday, 8September2015, several LMPSmembers attendedavery interestingcommunityforum on boating safety in Chapin, the last in a series around the state, presented by SCDNR.WehadanLMPStable setup, andprovided refreshmentsaswell as informationon the squadron,and on our upcoming America’s Boating Course in November. P/C Lee Ayers, SN spoke onbehalf of LMPS, and D/C Andy Hyman, SN, spoke on behalf of USPS District 26, both stressingthe need for mandatory boater education for all ages, a requirement that many other states havealready adopted.

Themeetingbeganwithmovingstories fromthe familymembersofvictimsofboating fatalities.Melissa Grice lost a daughter when she was run over by a personal watercraft. The operator wasunder the influence of alcohol, and had several previous BUI convictions. She advocated themandatory administration of a breathalyzer test to all operators involved in a boating accident.She also stated the need for increased funding to enable DNR to hire more officers, andsuggested a small increase in the price of a three year boat registration. Cassie Stevens lost abrother when the boat he was riding in, operated by an inexperienced friend, lost control and hita tree on the bank. She advocated mandatory boater education for all boat operators, not justthose under 16. She has started a non-profit organization to work with DNR.Several DNR officers were present at the meeting. They answered questions, and provided abrief history of their funding and available officers. There are currently 250 officers statewide,down from a high of 302, covering all lakes and waterways, as well as their other dutiesregarding hunting, fishing, and conservation. With 8000 miles of rivers, 460 thousand acres oflakes, 3000 miles of shoreline, and over 485 thousand registered boats, they desperately needincreased funding to provide more officers. They did provide a Hotline Number(800-922-5431) to call if you observe dangerous boating behavior or unsafe conditions on thelake. In addition they provided a Charleston number to call for investigation into designatinga No Wake Zone: 843-953-9578.

Also present at the meeting were representatives from the local chapter of Mothers AgainstDrunk Driving and Safe Kids, speaking in favor of tougher BUI laws, and stricter enforcementof PFD laws, respectively. State Representative Chip Huggins spoke briefly in favor ofincreasing funding for SCDNR, and gave out a number to his office (803-331-8468),encouraging communication.Other topics covered included boat speed, especially at night, wake zones, and extraneous lightson boats at night that are too bright and blind other boaters, or are confusing (the blue LEDs manyboats have might be thought to be law enforcement).DNR was collecting surveys on boater safety at the meeting and online. This survey was sentout to all District 26 members. The results of this survey and these public forums will bepresented to lawmakers for consideration. It was obvious to most all present that mandatoryboater education is highly needed in the state, and is also the most cost effective method toaddress all of these safety issues. The United States Power Squadron and Lake Murray PowerSquadron remain committed to safe boating and boater education.

Lt Bonnie McElveen, Lt Joe McElveen,and Lt Marilyn Hyman, AP attendedthe forum and served refreshments

Among the DNR officers collectingboating safety surveys was USPSmember Kim Leverich, from North StrandSail and Power Squadron (far left)

Commander's Reportby Cdr Braxton Sorg, AP

This Cruise Around the Sun is rapidly coming in to port. Thismonth the squadron electionswill

be held, and following that, the Change ofWatch in early November. I thank the nominations

committee for their hard work in bringing a good bridge together for 2016 and to those who

stepped up when asked to serve. I know I say this a lot, but it is important for all members to

try to contribute sometimeto thesquadron.Nothingbrings youcloser toanorganization than

giving of yourself. Coming up after the annual meeting and vote, the bridge will be putting

together the calendar and activities for next year. If there are activities youwould like to keep,

add, or change, please speak to a bridgemember.We are looking for a newmonthlymeeting

venue for next year.Weenjoy Flotilla Island and Saluda Shoals but the island is a bit distant for

many,andSaludaShoals isahugefinancialobligation forus. If anyonehasan idea fora location

(restaurant, Elk’s Hall or the like, banquet hall, etc), again, let a bridge member know.

Remember, the bridge is here to serve the squadron and the squadron is here to serve the

boating community.Without support of ourmembers, wewould not be able to complete our

mission of Education, Civic Service and Fraternity. I ask everyone to make it a point to

participate in activities next year. Find something you like and be a part of it. I hope to see you

at the upcoming events as we complete this Cruise Around the Sun.

As Tommy Clawson, AP said during his devotion at the September dinner meeting, fallis the perfect time for the real boaters. The summer recreational crowd is gone and wecan enjoy the calmer waters and beautiful sunrises and sunsets on our own LakeMurray.Speaking of the September dinner meeting, the speaker, Jim Lee, the Education &Outreach Coordinator for DNR in Georgetown, gave an excellent presentation. VisitingGeorgetown is always a highlight, but now that we know more about the Tom YawkeyWildlife Preserve, there are even more reasons to go to explore the area. Jim madethe trip from Georgetown and back just for our meeting because he is so passionateabout their mission to inform the public about this hidden treasure right here in SouthCarolina.Tom Yawkey, the longtime owner of the Boston Red Sox, was also one of the largestland donors to the state of South Carolina. Yawkey donated 20,000 acres of land alongthe shoreline in Georgetown County to the South Carolina Department of NaturalResources. This property is maybe the most curious property managed by the SC DNRfor the public, partly because, by deed restriction. the public has only limited access toit and that is through guided tours during certain times of the year.The slides shown of the unique wildlife and plants that inhabit the area were amazingto me. The Tom Yawkey Wildlife Center includes marshes, wetlands, forests andbeaches. It is home to hundreds of species of wildlife and is a habitat for migratory birds,eagles, alligators and other endangered species. The beaches are consideredexcellent nesting locations for the threatened loggerhead sea turtle. At times, duckscomb the islands by the thousands. Some of the oldest alligators in the state live there,because Yawkey forbade hunting them as far back as the 1930s. Check it out! It soundslike it’s worth the trip!This information from Jim was a nice lead in to promote our final cruise of this watch yearlead by P/C Charlie Bruce, SN to the Georgetown Wooden Boat Show. I’ve alwayswanted to go but the Clemson footballs games have gotten in the way. Contact Charlieif you’re interested. Special thanks go out to Lt Fred Ruinen, JN and all who assistedwith the Dam Swim for Drew this year. The lake conditions were challenging andLMPS played a significant role in assisting swimmers. Thanks to all who donated theirtime to be safety boats for this very worthwhile event.

Let's start thinking Seamanship for next year...

As mentioned last month, our advanced courses have been under-utilized over the past fewyears. We especially would like to see more participation in Seamanship. This initial courseoffers a more complete introduction to the fine art of advanced boating. We may have someinteresting developments coming over the next few months that could reinforce Seamanshipparticipation. Stand by for what may be good news.

Again,wehaveonemoreABCclasson the schedule for thisyear. Itwill be in thewell receivedtwo Saturdays format starting November 14 and ending the following Saturday November 21.Everybody should have ample time to get in and get this course completed before Thanksgiving.We also had two new members sign up on the Internet. National sent them an ABC coursebook along with the welcome information. They have boated for quite some time and read overthe book and notified me they were ready to take the proctored exam mentioned in the material.I setup another ABC course with National, administered their exam and they both passed inflying colors. A hearty congratulations goes out to Janet and Johnny Floyd (one made 96,the other 100 and I'm not saying who made what).

Also, a reminder of the Lexington County EMS American Heart Association “Friends andFamily” CPR course covering adult, child and infant CPR will be held 8 October and 10December at the Lexington County EMS facility on Ball Park Rd. Its only 2 hours, free andyou get a Friends and Family CPR certification. Contact Lieutenant Micah Norman,803-785-5057 [email protected] to sign up for one of these excellent classes.

To sign up get in touch with 1st/Lt Howard Pendley, N([email protected]) or me, Lt/C Jerry Wise, SN ([email protected]).Classes require a minimum number of members, and books have to be ordred, so please signup well ahead of time.

Lake Murray Power Squadron just completed its bi:annual cruise to the beautiful JocasseeGorges project lakes Jocassee and Keowee. Wehadmembers& guests staying at theDevilsForkStatePark facilities&alsoat thenearby campground. If youhavenot stayedat theparkcabins recently you are in for a pleasant surprise as they have undergone some seriousupgrades since I was last there: new kitchen facilites including granite countertops, newfurniture, including beds and cable T.V. throughout, all adding to the total experience. Kindof like "roughing it" at the Marriott.

the 27th to the schedule. Our three boat caravan going up showed the wisdom of travelingin groups when P/C Lee Ayers, SN, lost a trailer tire. It would have been a lot harder for himto change it without an extra jack to help. We made short work of the flat tire, and I thinkthat was the only mishap of the cruise (that anyone admitted to). Smooth water & verypleasantweather aswell as a very full poolmade for somewonderful small boat cruising. Itjust doesn't get any better than the conditions we all enjoyed.

Thecruise thisyearwasunder theabledirectionof 1st/Lt Retta Strohecker, P and she did a veryfine job indeed. She organized a pizza partySaturday night for those interested; it was agreat success. Thanks for all your hard workRetta! Thanks also to Lt Kes Crumpler, P and JayCrumpler, S, for hosting a pot luck appetizergathering for the group in their cabin on Fridaynight.

Friday saw cruisers going to both lakes and all having fun onour own. Othermembers hikedto waterfalls and rode horseback. The real treat was Saturday when seasoned Jocasseeboater and associate member Charles Heath gave everyone a special guided tour of thewaterfalls andother highlights of Jocassee. Hepointedoutwaterfalls along the coastline, aswell as beautiful homes that are available for rent. He gave history of the area, and of thebuilding of the dam. Stephanie, a master gardener, shared her expertise on local plants.Many thanks to Charles and Stephanie for their able guidance and narrated tour of thescenes and features of the lake.

Charles Heath had chosen a sandy beach for us to raft up on. Many thanks to Lt JohnHunterandLtValerieHunter for goingover veryearly in themorning to stakeour claimon thebeachwith camp chairs. It was a great raft up, though we all felt sorry for Hugh Hamm and hisboatload of family as they had forgotten their lunch in the cabin. I guess when you have toround up all those grandchildren and get life jackets on them, you just can't remembereverything. I'm sure they all had a lot of fun anyway.

This cruise really did have it all: great weather, clear blue:green water, good food, friends,beautiful facilities and thewonderful tour by theHeaths. Wehad29members and2 guests,with 11 boats available so everyone had a ride. Please don't ever let the lack of a boat stopyou from signing up for a cruise like this. Our members are always willing to share andaccommodate.

The forecast of rainy weather came true on Sunday, so many members packed up andtrailered home. Others accompanied Charles Heath for further expert tour guiding : a tourof waterfalls by land this time. All good things must come to an end & this wonderfulweekend was no exception. I hope to see you on the water soon!

Safety Report

As a vessel examiner, I’ve noticed that batteries seem to be one of the most neglecteditems on a boat. When performing a vessel safety check, I ensure that the battery issecured and that the positive terminal is covered to prevent a metallic object fromshorting out the battery and potentially causing a fire.Batteries buried in the bowels of the vessel, under or behind other gear, makeinspection almost impossible. In such cases, you cannot ensure that the tops of thebatteries are clean, the connections are tight or that a wet cell battery has sufficientfluid.You should check the fluid level in wet cell batteries often. If low, fill the cells withdistilled water. Clean any spilled water from the top of the battery before returning it toservice. If the fluid level in the cells is below the tops of the plates, the battery’s life hasmost likely been compromised.If you find corrosion on top of the battery or on one or both of the terminals, clean themusing a small brush and a solution of one tablespoon of baking soda to a cup of water.To be safe, remove the battery and clean it away from the vessel while protectingyourself with either a face shield or safety goggles and gloves. Rinse off the bakingsoda mixture with running water, and dry the battery before returning it to the boat. Coatthe terminals with petroleum jelly to prevent further corrosion.If you live where it freezes in the winter, make sure your batteries are fully chargedbefore winterizing. Using a hydrometer, take specific gravity readings of each cell toverify the battery’s state. A fully charged wet cell battery should read between 1.255and 1.275 per cell.If you haven’t checked your batteries recently, be sure to do it before your nextscheduled vessel safety check. Sign up for a courtesy VSC now.
