OK, I have never witnessed anything like this. Last race of a season championship, two boats are virtually tied for first place going into today's race. The biggest and fastest boat in today's fleet is not in the running due to lack of participation in previous races. The big boat is winning handily when she suddenly does a 180 and heads towards the fleet behind her. She blankets one of the 1st place contenders allowing her friend, the other contender, to surge ahead. I don't believe there were any fouls and no protests were filed. Any comments?

that really sucks

[M48]

Case 34 does not quite fit the situation. However, I would contend that a boat from fleet "A" that purposely hinders a boat in another fleet has broken Rule 2, Fair Sailing & 69.1, Gross Misconduct. Not sure, but the effected boat should be able to protest fleet A boat (which really doesn't matter, except to have that boat banned) AND then ask for redress when hindrance took place (to possibly toss the race).

You must be getting forgetful. The yellow boat and the burgundy boat (with the same hand on the helm) have both done it on several occasions in years past. I think you were even on one of boats they came back and blanketed.

[Janer]

Wrong again. I sailed on Taxi the years that Don Hughes owned it. Don never drove the red boat.

[Janer]

That's not the point. I was asking for comments on the situation. I just wanted to find out if there was a rule for this besides "unsportsman like conduct".


Since you were in the race maybe you could describe what you saw. I was on Race Committee.

[b green]

I rounded h right behind the red boat, we both set, and sailed low of the BB. As we were headed I went to whites and they looked like they were having problems with the kite. We rolled the H20 before the BB and I looked to see the red boat still having problems...not hurting any one. The last leg was a tight run to the out side pin. We finished and saw liberty and max both in clear air on the last leg with the red boat on whites still looking like they had problems. I did not see any interference, but I was racing and could not view everything. During the beat to H most boats went in with psyche song, the red boat and myself went out, no interference, not sure about the BB rounding, the red boat had a very poor race. B

I was checking out 'the rocket' in the yard last Sunday. I noticed the keel was set up for a not-yet-installed kelp cutter. The rudder was still covered for painting. I was wondering if there's any anti-kep provisioning for the rudder as well?

[Ball Breaker]

Whats a Kep?

Well, DUH! Korean Electric Power. You don't want to snag a utility on your rudder.

It's been raining most of the day. The local weatherman (not always to be believed) says the next storm hits tomorrow into Sat and then the BIG one hits on Sunday. No wind?, lots of rain and big swells does not sound good to me so I am hoping for wind. I'm just glad I'm crewing on Skian Dhu rather than driving a Harbor 20. It's the Holiday Regatta both days which will decide some of the yearly Championship winners. Go Skian Dhu! A crew bottle of Mt. Gay will be in order (along with a change of clothes).

I'm just glad that Janer is sailing rather than doing race committee again......

[Janer]

Muddy, I give back to the sport as much as I can, race committee, regatta chair and race as much as I can. I have a distinct feeling that you do nothing in these venues. This sport would not survive without lots of volunteers.

[saltyokie]

How long has it been since a racer came up to the race committee after the race and thanked them for giving up their time so the rest of us can play? On my boat we wave thanks to the race committee every time we cross the finish line. Even though they cannot hear it we always say it so the crew understands it takes work for races to happen.

[Madmax]

I make a point to wave to the RC volunteers always regardless of race finish-ALWAYS. Doing RC is a job and without volunteers, racing would be rabbits starts galore.

I will assume the racing is right off the club tomorrow from 12 noon - about 4PM. Looking dismal from a wind strength standpoint. A solid West swell probably won't be surf-able by anyone other than jet skis and surf/paddle boards. Sorry folks. Not much better (At the moment) for Sunday...

After a long day of racing with little wind and rain I am very sad to hear that Barry Berkus passed away today. An icon in Santa Barbara as a sailor, advocate of the arts, and internationally known architect. A wonderful man. My heart goes out to his family. RIP Barry.

Crap, nothing travels faster than BAD news.
Flew for Barry and he recently flew with me in the front seat and told me about his sailing and Olympics adventures.
Barry was a great man and a great visionary.

It was a slow, wet two days for the SBYC Holiday Regatta. Nonetheless, it was fun watching Mike Drammer and Eli Parker's new J-70, Roxie's Rocket. compete. They won their first regatta in the PHRF B fleet. Saturday's crew included Mike, Eric Stokke and Ken Kieding. Looking forward to seeing more in 2013 from a new and growing J-70 fleet locally.

Santa Cruz Island has been "shut down" by authorities following the death of a Coast Guard Officer over the weekend. The Coast Guard discovered a panga near Santa Cruz Island in the middle of the night and launched a 21 foot rigid hull inflatable which approached the panaga. Occupants did not respond to hail and sped toward the Coast Guard launch, hitting it and killing Terrell Horne, 34, who died of a head injury. Authorities evacuated the island of visitors and Park employees, Several bales of marajuana were found yesterday near Smugglers Cove (fitting name). There may possibly be suspects at large on the island.Occupants of the panga were pursued by Coast Guard helo and cutter and taken into custody. Pangas are being found lately at Refugio, San Miguel Island and Fernald Point.

Terrell Horne RIP

I was on the boat that got blanketed by the 70 that Jimbo was driving. I don't think there was any protest action taken, just a lot of bad vibes..sorry my memory is seeped in rum, At any rate, it's a shitty move to pull in any race.

Totally agree. I started racing in Marina del Rey in 1970. It may be the fog of years but it seems to be that the corinthian spirit was more alive then. Lately it seems anything goes. I am sorry but to me that lacks class, regardless of the skill level of the perpetrator.

[irievibe]

To set the record straight (on the original matter:), the blanketing at the BB was truly a coincidence as the red boat was flying with a little less talent than normal. We've all had those days. Also, it wasn't actually a 180. A crew member on our boat is still convinced she never rounded H, as the maneuver was more than curious. In retracing it, it still makes no sense how she ended up so far up wind, and so far past lay, on a downwind leg, but it happened, and the timing is crazy how we came together. I mean really, to plan that tack/jibe (which way was she going again? and end up blanketing at the mark perfectly would be more than impressive. As much as it hurt for a season decider, it was a lot of fun, which is what this fleet is all about.

I think the most appropriate response to this issue was:
"Shun forevermore at the bar is the best method of punishment."
Glad to hear the issue has come up in other races. I was curious as I couldn't think of an actual rule on that. It seems you would be hard pressed to prove intention there.

It's great that our little fleet is having such a competitive run right up to the end of the season, which will be settled . . .

Solve the problems made on the race course in the bar. Isn't this the first suggestion of most every repeat offender (no disrespect to Larry). In fact, if everyone raced as cleanly as Larry, Jane would not have even broached the subject.

But they don't all race cleanly in Santa Barbara do they. A small group has for years periodically done just the opposite. Whether it is calling for sea room and waiting a few extra boat lengths to tack, circling back to blanket or starboard tack a boat in another class or stripping PHRF boats before you race them, it is all the same BS and Santa Barbara has seen too much of it over the years.

The solution is simple. Don't take it to the bar, throw them out. If you do not, our children will be dealing with the same problem, because cheating breeds cheating.

I get it, no malice. Other skippers may not be pleased to learn that the largest and fastest boat in the fleet is careening around the course, out of control but having a ball. On our boat, before each race we evaluate our crew d'jour in terms of numbers and experience level. If I do not feel totally comfortable that we can race safely, we go for a day sail instead so I can do some teaching. This past year we have done a lot more day-sailing than racing but that is just the way it is.
