From The Helm — by Commodore Jim Cameron
The Beginning of Summer BBQ at SYC was a great kick-off to the summer.
Thank you to Vice Commodore Bruce and Susan Moneymaker, Kathy Teresi
and her volunteers for a fantastic Asian-fusion dinner. Thanks also to our SYC
staff Debbie Anzack, Kim Souza, and all the galley staff!
Being Commodore of the Sacramento Yacht Club sure is keeping me busy this
year. It is hard to believe that we are already in the month of June. Where has
the time gone? It must be all of the fun activities planned at our Club that is
keeping us busy and making the time fly!
Commodore
Jim Cameron
When I first took over as Commodore, I had to appoint lots of members to the
open positions on SYC Committees. This brings me to another committee that
needs to ramp up soon – the SYC Nominating Committee. No later than the
end of the second week in August of each year, the Board of Directors elects a
Nominating Committee composed of five members, not more than three of whom shall be members of the
Board, and none of whom shall be Flag Officers. No member shall serve on the Nominating Committee
for more than two (2) years consecutively. This committee shall nominate candidates for all elective offices, post the names of candidates, together with the offices to which they are nominated, on the Bulletin
Board in the Clubhouse and mail to all members prior to the regular membership meeting on the fourth Friday in September.
With that said, I will be coming up with a list of names for the Nominating Committee in the future to submit to the Board for approval. Please be thinking about whether you would like to serve in some capacity
on the Board or on the Nominating Committee. This will make the job of the Nominating Committee
much easier.
Hope to see you at the cruise to Oxbow on June 13-15th. The Chovanecs and Teresis have a great cruise
planned for the Club.

Sacramento Yacht Club—Opening Day on the Sacramento
The 64th Annual Sacramento Yacht Club Opening Day Parade began with a BANG fr om the blast of
the cannon by Chief Cannoneer and Past Commodore Russ Kaiser. 30 boats passed by Kit’s 75’ Blond
Ambition that was utilized for the judging platform. The judges were: Director of Events, Sacramento
Convention and Visitors Bureau, Jonathan Cloward; Yachtsman Magazine Contributing Editor and SYC
Honorary Member, Bill Wells; and Business (Unger Construction) and Boating Enthusiast Anna Maisyan.
SYC Chaplain, Peter Robertson blessed the fleet to commemorate the opening of the boating season.
Rolande Tellier and Linda Rohmer played a key role by serving as Registrants for the parade participants.
Each was given a number and instructed by Stan Westerlund and Jack Lang from the marina docks. Karen Herr tallied the judge’s scorecards. Rae Ann Murray provided graphics and Morris Lum and Brian
Vittes took photographs. Morris provided 5x7 photos for each boat to add to the Vessel Wall. Be sure to
submit your boat photo to Debbie in the SYC Office so your boat photo can be mounted to the Vessel
Wall located in the SYC dining room. You can directly find photos of the event by Yachtsman Magazine
and SYC Honorary Member Bill Wells on Bill’s Facebook Page.
The Galley Crew was headed by PC Frank and Sue Bettis. Thank you for providing the Americana Meal,
perfect for Sunday afternoon: hamburger, cheese burgers, fries, chili, and salad. The children, as well as
the adults, enjoyed the ice cream bars. Jackie Robertson, PC Gordon and Kevin Hubble, and Pauli Ayres
also volunteered in making this event a success. More than 175 meals were served! PC Junay Gardner,
Chair-Public Relations Committee notified many news stations and local magazines. The parade was noticed on Sacramento365.com! Jahnine West, Manager of West Marine attended and brought swag for the

House Happenings — by Vice Commodore Bruce Moneymaker
Shipmates,
Vice Commodore
Bruce
Moneymaker
Welcome to summer--let the cruising begin! May was a great month at the
club with three large private events and several club events. The first private
event Shipmates Gary Palmero and Melanie Hartman got married at the club in
a beautiful outdoor wedding on the lawn. Please congratulate them when you
see them. On the 17th, we had a large wedding and the progressive dinner on
the same night. I want to thank all shipmates who parked in the South Grass
Parking Lot so the wedding guests could use our paved parking lots. I also
want to thank Rob Connelly, Mike Glancy, Ron Lewis, and Brian Schulze for
their great help parking the wedding guests and making to whole thing run
smoothly.
The Progressive Dinner that night was a big success with over 70 attending and the fantastic western
themed food. I would like to thank all the cooks for all of their hard work making it a successful event. I
would also like to thank Sandy Connelly for all the help she gave me preparing the meal for the May General Meeting!
The final event for May was the Beginning of Summer BBQ. We fed over 120 shipmates. The Theme was
Asian Fusion and, of course, Kathy Teresi and her team created a fantastic spread of very diverse foods.
However, many Shipmates waited until the last minute to RSVP which caused Kathy and her team to run
all over town at the last minute to buy more food at a higher cost. Due to this, we will again be reinstating
the 48 hour RSVP policy. We will no longer accept RSVP’s less than 48 hours prior to an event. If you
come to the event and you have not RSVP’d, you are welcome to attend. If you would like to eat, you will
be put on a waiting list to eat after those who responded. It is very important to the financial stability of the
club that we do not purchase too much food and we purchase it from our normal suppliers and not at the
grocery store at the last minute. Thank you for your understanding on this matter.

On The Water —
by Rear Commodore Tim Bunyan
Thank you to our entire Club for making the 64th Opening Day Boat Parade
another successful event. Many, many people helped on this event and it
showed. See the article in this Wingdammer for more on the parade, judging
results, and its’ successes.
It’s time we take the cruises further South to a lower latitude. Next up is a 40mile passage to Oxbow Marina. Our Co-Cruise Captains Phil & Tracey Chovanec and Sam & Kathy Teresi are prepping Oxbow Marina for our June
Cruise…the “Parrothead Party with a Purpose”. Bring your island-wear
Rear Commodore
Tim Bunyan
and accoutrements (wacky or otherwise) find a purpose, and be there. So far, there are 18 vessels (and 10
RV’s) signed up. With contests for both progressive appetizers and progressive cocktails, this is another
event not to be missed! Fins UP!!
Upon our return from Oxbow Marina, we’ll be keeping the next two cruises close to home. The Lighted
Boat Parade on Thursday night, July 3rd and the American River Cruise Friday, Saturday, & Sunday on
July 4th, 5th, & 6th. Sign-Up sheets will be available soon via email.
After those two cruises on our home turf, once again, we take the “show on the road” and head back down
to the Delta for the 4S Games at the Sportsman Yacht Club on July 11th, 12th, & 13th followed immediately
by the Delta Cruise July 14th through July 20th. Please see the “Cruising Schedule & Itinerary” for further
information on the cruises mentioned above as well as the Labor Day Cruise, Commodore’s Cruise, and
the Bay Cruise.
A mention here to thank our Port Captain Jim Montgomery for having all four ice machines in the marina
pumping out ice for all our boating and cruising needs. Jim can fill us in on the able minded and able bodied Shipmates who assisted in this welcome improvement.
Every cruise this year has been a sell-out. Please RSVP early for cruises and our Cruise Captains will
thank you with a well-planned and well-stocked cruise.
See you….On The Water !!

From the Galley-by Galley Manager Kathy TeresiWell, shipmates. Here we are and it is already June. I guess as the saying
goes, “Time flies when you are having fun.” Fun is certainly what we had last
month.
Galley manager
Kathy Teresi
The month of May started out glitzy once again with a wonderful Opening
Day Parade with glam, glitz and perfect weather. It was so wonderful to see
so many of you participating in the parade and, of course, partaking of the
early dinner in the Clubhouse. What a great meal we had that was prepared
by Frank and Sue Bettis, PC Gordon and Kevin Hubble, and Jackie Robertson. With the dining room and Clubhouse bursting out at the seams with last
minute reservations, they accomplished the impossible and fed all of us in record time. Everything was so delicious and we thank you all, especially Sue
Bettis, for spending the weekend in the Galley instead of on the water.
The next event was our annual Progressive Dinner on the Docks. I want to give a big thank you to all of
you volunteers who prepared all five courses. Although I was out of town and could not attend, it is my
understanding that the food was wonderful, the decorations were beyond expectations and I congratulate
and thank all of you.
The General Meeting Dinner this month was prepared by our own Vice Commodore Bruce Moneymaker
and Shipmate Sandy Connelly. They sliced and diced their way to a delicious gourmet salad bar and we all
should give them a huge thank you for accomplishing this feat with no other help. I, unfortunately, was out
of town that weekend or I would have lent a helping hand.
Speaking of help---I feel the need to scold all of you. When we joined this Club we all took an oath to be a
good Shipmate. I think that it is a shame that just two shipmates were in the Galley to prepare a meal by
themselves for so many people. I also think that the Vice Commodore should not be the lead in the galley,
especially on a General Meeting night. I am sure you are all well aware that Bruce has many, many other
duties and obligations. So, this is fair warning. I am on the hunt for volunteers to cook for these dinners
and I will not take no for an answer!
One more “wine” and I am done. Can all of you please, please, please try to make your RSVP reply to the
EVITE timely? I order the food on Wednesday. Then I drive all over town after that to get food and specialty items requested by the Galley Lead and deliver it all to the Club. By Friday, many more of you decide that you want to attend. All well and great but, it causes me more time out of my busy day, stress and
anxiety. I respectfully request some compassion for me and my time on your part.
As for the next couple of months, the only events at the Clubhouse will be the Lighted Boat Parade and
General Meetings. It will be a welcome respite.
In closing, I want to invite all of you who have special food phobias, allergies, diet restrictions, etc. to
please contact me at kathym@directcon.net or 530-748-6135, and let me know what I can do to help you
enjoy your meals more at SYC. Your request can be as simple as asking for your salad dressing to be on
the side. Please do not be hesitant about your needs. Anything you reveal to me is strictly confidential.
If one glass of wine is good for you, just imagine what a whole bottle could do!

Sacramento Yacht Club-Recipe by Galley Manager Kathy Teresi
TILAPIA WITH CITRUS BAGNA CAUDA SAUCE
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus 2 teaspoons
4 anchovy fillets, minced
1 ½ teaspoon minced garlic
2 tablespoons orange juice
2 tablespoons thinly sliced fresh basil leaves
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 teaspoon orange zest
6 (6 oz.) skinless Tilapia fillets
Salt and freshly ground pepper
BAGNA CAUDA SAUCE:
Cook the butter and 2 tablespoons olive oil in a heavy medium saucepan over low to medium heat just until the butter is melted, stirring frequently. Add the anchovies and stir
until the anchovies dissolve. About two minutes. Add the garlic and cook just until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Remove from the heat. Stir in the orange juice, basil and lemon
and orange zests. Season the sauce, to taste, with salt.
The Bagna Cauda sauce can be made 1 day ahead. Cool, then cover and refrigerate. Rewarm before using.
Meanwhile, preheat oven to 200 degrees F.
Sprinkle the fish with salt and pepper and brush both sides of the fish with remaining 2
teaspoons olive oil. Working in 2 batches, fry the fish until just opaque in center, about 3
minutes per side. Transfer fish to platter. Cover with foil and keep warm in the oven
while cooking the second batch of fish. Drizzle the sauce over and around the fish and
serve.
