Kim Hughes and Debra Tyhurst the creators of Jewelry Fare for Vera’s Bobbles has brought to Channel Islands Yacht Club a flair of charm, elegant and fantastic creativity. Our Club lady members and guests pick their choice of elegant jewelry and the gentlemen are required to satisfy this wish. A splendid evening out was experienced May 15th, a Channel Islands Yacht Club fantastic dinner from the Epicureans, Jewelry Fashion models, along with the art of being awarded the highest bid. Bottles of wine flowed, an experience of grandeur was had by all. Our Club looks fantastic thank you to Rear Commodore Connie Calo and her fantastic House Captain, our Eddy. Connie’s dinner teams are fantastic and we all have fun. Hats off to our Vice Commodore Georgie Olsen: For an excellent representation of Channel Islands Yacht Club at the Hardway Race from Santa Barbara to Ventura. Five wins overall by CIYC along with another of our own team member taking a fourth. What a great showing. Winners CIYC Velero; Brent Swanson took the perpetual trophy and raced double handed: CIYC Quiet Times; Tom Warshauer: CIYC Zoarces; Shelly Johnson, team Dan Alpern and your Commodore Mary Foster. CIYC Grace; Bob Heatherly and wife along with son, Sean: This was the first race for Sean, we now have a new junior sailor. Grandmother, Pat Heatherly is very proud. Funatic; our CIYC Ram member Roxanne, Main Squeeze; our CIYC Ram member Bill Brayton and regular member Kurt Ingram part of the team. Out Patient; our own CIYC member Mary Howard was part of this team. When you see our Racing Team in and around the Club give them a hand they contribute so much to us as a Yacht Club and are respected in the sport of racing. They uphold the traditions, Corinthian spirit and excellent sportsmanship. In the Commodore Classic Race of May 23rd we expect the trophy to come back home to CIYC. Our RAM Shelly Johnson, owner of Zoarces, with Commodore Mary Foster and Past Commodore Jack Borkowski will defend the title. The pride I feel for CIYC goes without saying when I see our members assist in and around the Club, bring home the gold and make CIYC stand out. We have a tough road ahead. We need your full support to gain new members. Get behind the new member campaign encourage your friends to be a part of the greatest Yacht Club around. Remember to be in attendance for the July 16th Called Meeting to vote on the revised By-Laws. Again I say something I never get tired of doing and that is thanking our Committee Chairs, all the team members and support groups of CIYC. What would we do without the leadership and dedication of these people? Our family is the greatest Mary 2 Channel Islands Yacht Club Currents Message From The Vice Commodore Georgie Olsen Well Boaters half of the 2010 cruising and racing season is behind us and what a wonderful time we have had so far. The Port Royal Regatta was held on the 1st of May with a modified course that was set on a 8.4 mile race around Gina with 2 non-spinnaker classes and we had a wonderful race with 7 boats in attendance. Everyone enjoyed the day and the wonderful spaghetti dinner that Jack provided for us all at the awards presentation. Lots of humor, good drinks and lots of laughter was had. The Winner in class A - Fusee, 2nd -Zoarces, and 3rd - Breezy The Winner in Class B - Out Patient, 2nd - Senior Advantage, 3rd - Advantage and 4th was Spray. Thanks and kudos to all of you. Also want to give special praise to our own Harry Krum who came in 3rd in his class in the Newport to Ensenada Race. You ROCK Harry and your wonderful crew. The cruise to CIYC hosted by the Naylors was awesome. Special thank you's to you both. Our second TGIF was one of the best. Thanks Joyce, Clarke & your crew and to Bill and Vera and your helpers with the race track. It was a delightful evening. The Marina Del Rey Cruise over Memorial Day weekend will I'm sure be a delight. As always we will have a great funpacked time. Will fill you in with next month's article. We have the Bob Cook Double handed race on 5th of June so I’m looking forward to sharing all that info next month as well. Be sure to put the Dingy Party on your agenda as it is going to be something all of you will enjoy. New house, new band, great food and drink, but most of all great friends. May the Powers that Be bring you all safely home to CIYC. Georgie Olsen, Vice Commodore Currents Currents Channel Islands YachtChannel Club Islands Yacht Club 33 Message From The Rear Commodore Connie Calo I would like to give a special thanks to two groups in our Club that have provide us with excellent meals. The Beefeaters: these gentlemen have been providing dinners for the Club for approximately eight years. They not only specialize in beef but in many other meat entrees. The Epicureans: these ladies are new to the Club this year. Their dinners are everything, but beef. Both of these dedicated groups are a crucial part of our dinner nights. Not only are they creative with their menus, they are selfless in the time that they spend to provide us a wonderful array of meals and all for our pleasure. I personally, cannot thank them enough for taking care of at least two Saturday nights a month and sometimes more. I would hope and I encourage you all to come and attend these dinners, they work hard and deserve your support. We have some great events planned for the coming months. Look for more information regarding a Wine and Cheese Tasting, All About Strawberries, and Salsa night. If there is something special you would like to do, don’t be shy, let me know. Thanks for your support. Connie Calo On behalf of the Channel Islanders I would like to thank each of you who helped make our first major fundraiser of 2010 a HUGE success. The April 25th Sunday Champagne brunch was spectacular!!! The Sunday brunch idea has been one I have been trying to solidify for quite a while now and we are pleased to present 2 more this year; Sunday, August 8, and Sunday October 3. More to follow at a later date, however for now please mark you calendars for these dates. Message From Channel Islanders First Mate Daphne Hetherington June is another busy month for the Islanders. Our board meeting is Thursday, June 3, the general membership meeting is Thursday, June 17, and our Father’s Day dinner is Saturday, June 19th at 6:30 p.m. This month’s general membership meeting will be held at La Dolce Vita at Heritage Square in Oxnard.

Last year it was uncomfortable in April so I move it to May but it did not result in improved weather. Hopefully the weather will improve for the other tourneys this year. The water has stayed unseasonably cold so far this year. Some barracuda are showing up in the channel which often bodes well for White Seabass. White Seabass often hold under the barracuda schools. CIYC Lady Anglers Tournament, July 10th 2010 The annual Ladies fishing tourney has been rescheduled to Saturday July 10, 2010; 1 am to 4 pm. The weigh in is at CIYC at 4PM. Sign up is $10 and the prizes will be distributed at 50% for 1st place, 30% 2nd place, and 20% 3rd place, the Sign-up list is in the bar or e-mail me at frank.sullivan@roadrunner.com . This event, in the past has been a blast. If you are a boat owner please let me know if you are willing to take on some of these ladies. If you are a lady wishing to fish the tourney and don’t have a ride let me know. I checked the tides and the moon phase and it all looks good. If the weather is good we should have a great time. Good Luck, remember Tourney fish don't count for Big Fish of the Month, and so keep turning them in.

Sign up to “escort” an outrigger canoe team as they race across the Channel and back. This is a renewal of a race held in the late 70’s, but with a new twist. Coed teams of 12 (6 in the canoe and 6 on your escort boat) will race from CI Harbor to Arch Rock, along the coast of Anacapa and back – about 30 miles.
