Cruise Report
2007 Change of Command Circle Raft Up
by Brenda Duvall, Magic
What an honor to be cruising chairs for HISC. When 21
boats for Friday night and 65 boats for Saturday night come
out for The Great Circle Raft up to kick off the 2007 cruising
season, all you can feel is pride in our club. We want to
personally thank Past Commodore Hal Steward for his hard
work and dedication to the circle. Also a special thank you
goes to Ladd Caine and Tom Fagan for working anchors and
lines. It was amazing to watch the hard working pirates
bringing our circle together. In its finest tradition the Blimp
passed over once, twice and than again several more times.
I for one am looking forward to checking out their photos.
Rae of Stingrae. We greatly appreciate them, Thank you Bob
& Dee. One by one the circle unfolded. Several boats ran
aground and those that could be were helped off by Carl and
Suzie of Glory Daze, Jake LaRue of Pi, Paul Gagnon of Diva,
along with Michael and Brenda of Magic.
We look forward to a great year and remember you too can
earn the 2007 cruising flag. It is quite simple come out and
enjoy your club events, and remember you earn extra points
for hosting. If you would like to host please call Brenda &
Michael of Magic at 954-545-1496 or Denise & Ladd of
Blue at 954-942-1288.
FROM THIS...
Once the circle was closed all of the boats sounded their
horns, conchs and anything else to express our appreciation
for all the hard work Hal and his pirates did bringing us
together. Our past cruising chairs Jeff & Lynn Kunkel were
unable to attend and so Randy and Julie Tice gladly joined the
new cruising chairs Denise & Ladd Caine along with Brenda
& Michael Duvall to turn over the past to the future. We once
again want to thank Jeff, Lynn, Randy, and Julie for the great
times we have had in this past year cruising events.
All dinghies were called out and soon a dinghy parade with
the new cruising flags flying saluted the circle. As all the
dinghies retired to their respective boats, folks cleaned up
enjoyed dinner. After the respite the brave circumnavigated,
while neighboring boats enjoyed each other's company and
the circling sailors. Commodore Tim and his hardy side kick
Ken checked the anchors and all of us sleepy sailors were
tucked away by midnight or so. Sunday morning dawned
with the traditional Bloody Mary's supplied by Bob & Dee

Series
by Jamie Cowan
One more time for the fun of it! Come one, come all… every
Wednesday evening for ten races, starting on May 2nd at
1900 (7 pm for you landlubbers) we will have a race for two
classes, the fast boats in one class and the not-so-fast boats
in the other class! If you have a preference, let me know. The
format will be exactly the same as last year, and for many
years before that, so don't be shy, get your crew together and
plan on it. One big difference from past years is that we are
not going to try to have races during the first two weeks of July
due to the fact that so many boats are over at Regatta Time
in Abaco or out of the area on cruises of their own.
SAILING WITH
GOODYEAR BLIMP
EMPLOYEES
by Dennis Tynan, Soulmate
Twenty Goodyear blimp employees enjoyed a day of sailing
on HISC sailboats on Monday March 19. The wind was
blowing up to 25 knots but four Club members, Jack Dailey
(Cracker Jack), Tom Fagan (Zebulon), John Sammons
(Joy Ride) and Randy Tice (Joie de Vivre) used their boats
take the enthusiastic employees for a ride.
The day started with the boats arriving at Dennis Tynan's
dock at 11:00 AM. The Goodyear people started arriving at
11:30. We had a cookout and got to know our guests and
set sail about 1:00. Many of them were experiencing sailing
for the first time. Conditions started getting a little worse and
when more that a few started getting seasick we came in
about 3:00. Since low tide became an issue Cracker Jack
and Joy Ride dropped off their passengers and headed home.
Zebulon and Joie de Vivre took a ride up the inter coastal and
then came back to enjoy more food and drink with the young
guests.
We will have all the usual prizes… beer and t-shirts. We will
do ten races with an overall prize for the series in both classes, Talk of Blimp rides, beer pong (if the ball lands in your cup
you must chug) and kidding with the seasick victims went on
and, with any luck, we will have a lot of fun for all.
till the last of the people left around 7:30 at night.
See you on the water!
Many thanks to John and Judy Antweiler, Larry Winchell
for helping cook, crew making our guests feel welcome. At
one time I heard Judy say "Gee this is like a fraternity party.
The Goodyear people all said they had a good time and enjoy
taking pictures of our circle raftups.

April 12th, General Meeting Program
This month Bob Kinnier will narrate to the Club his Photo
Journal of his sail from the Baltic Sea to the Aegean Sea via
the Rhine and Danube rivers.
Bob was born and raised in Baltimore, MD, spending his
summers on the Chesapeake. He graduated from Purdue
University with a degree in Civil Engineering and later earned
an MBA from California State University.
His boating career spans almost 60 years. In 2001 he sold his
steel fabrication business and sailed away from Milwaukee,
WI, in his Slocum 43 for a long term voyage around the world.
His goal was not so much to sail around the world but more
to see the world from the deck of his cruising vessel.
So far, Bob has more than 20,000 miles under his keel. He
sailed across the Atlantic in 2003. He then cruised the British
Isles in 2004 and navigated the Baltic Sea in 2005. Last year
he sailed from the Baltic up the Rhine River and down the
Danube to the Aegean Sea. This trip turned out to be his most
challenging voyage which is the subject of the evening's
presentation.
We hope you will all plan to attend. It will be an enjoyable
viewing and learning voyage.

Race Report
by Hal Steward,
Southern Breeze
We are all looking forward to another exciting and fun-filled
racing schedule. I am especially happy that Ken Scott is my
co-chair and that Elizabeth Knickerbocker has offered to
head up race committee organizing. I am always grateful for
the Fleet Captains, Larry Winchell, Peter Wilkinson and
Jack Dailey as their assistance is really appreciated those
times when the decision to postpone or cancel a race arises.
And, how can we race without race results and trophies?
That is where Cindy Cowan comes in. Then the after race
parties need a person like Judy Whittaker who is heading that
up this year. There are other behind the scene people like
Jamie Cowan who serves on protest committee and is our
PHRF and Florida Sailing Association Representative.
Then there are the special events like the socials that Judy and
John Antweiler organize, and the Old Port Cove hosts
Dianne and Ken Voss. Of course we cannot forget a whole
series of Beer Can races. Thanks to Jamie and Cindy Cowan
and fund raiser Tom Garvey this is always a great program.
Much gratitude goes to Larry Geller for letting us use Plush
Toy for the Beer Can Committee boat. Let us not forget that
critical to the racing program are the buoy setters. Thanks to
Dan Meyers and Carl Wehe we have marks to round!
Last month's general meeting was the Annual Skipper's
Meeting where the race packets were distributed and the
2007 race schedule was discussed. If you did not get a
packet please contact Ken Scott or Hal Steward. You must
complete the forms in this packet to be able to race with our
HISC program. I might mention at this time that racing with
HISC is such a HOOT! We have such a flexible group of
sailors and classes that racers can cruise and cruisers can
race. So don't be intimidated if you have a full library,
wardrobe and enough backup parts to rebuild your boat,
you can STILL RACE
Race Report continued on page 12

Race Report continued from page 11
If you are interested in helping out with Race committee
(sometimes on a boat and sometimes from the beach) please
call Elizabeth Knickerbocker. This is a great way to get the
understanding of the rules of racing from a different perspective. You are always invited to the after race party and if you
committee enough you are eligible for a race flag!
Speaking of which, please submit your Race Flag entries by
the May general meeting. Please limit your design to 3 colors
and use a pennant shape.
One more important person on our team: Crew Pool.
Remember if anyone wants to crew or needs crew, the
person to contact is Bob "Hutch" Hutcheson. See you out on
the water. Races start at 11:00, and stay tuned to channel 68
for race instructions.

Trawler
Tracks
ICW, Skipper Bob's guides are great for anchorages. Even
the Waterway Guides are excellent since Tom and Mel Neale
have become cruising editors. The full cruising editor staff is
much more knowledgeable and "anchor friendly" these days.
As for what anchors work best? I'm a brave soul and will
offer an opinion. My preferences, in order:
1. Bruce 44: All chain. Anywhere on the ICW or Bahamas.
Much of the time we swing on just the chain itself.
2. Fortress FX-37: Short chain with nylon rode. In mud
(Chesapeake) or sand (Bahamas). Also our primary storm/
hurricane anchor.
3. Fortress FX-23: Stern anchor when you don't have space
to swing. Or large circle raftups!

HAM EXAMS
May 22nd, Ft Lauderdale @ 6:00 PM
The Gold Coast Amateur Radio Association will be giving
ham exams for Technician, General, and Extra class
licenses, on May 22nd, and hopefully every fourth
Tuesday after that, at the Imperial Point Medical Center,
6401 N. Federal Highway, Ft. Lauderdale. In the cafeteria, look for the Private Room. Please arrive a few
minutes early, and bring a pencil, ball point pen, a photo
ID (driver's license, etc), and $14.00. Also bring the
original and photocopy of your license and CSCEs, if
any. Enter at the main entrance, and tell the guard you are
attending the ham session.
There is no longer a morse code requirement, so hams
that have passed the written tests for either general or
extra, but have not taken the morse code test, can
upgrade by paying the $14.00 and presenting their
CSCE. The CSCE must not be older than 365 days.
PS: Anyone know where the picture of Yankee Rover was
taken?
Please call Gordon Groves, K3GG, at 954-783-8693, or
e-mail (gordon.groves@gmail.com) for any questions and
to register for the exams.

Attention readers. In keeping with our club credo, to promote the interest in sailing, we are trying a new feature, the
sharing of books between club members. If you have books
on sailing, boating, or related topics; and you would be
willing to loan them out to club members, please join our
book exchange.
The featured book this month is The Proving Ground by
G.B. Knecht This book is a gripping account of the Sydney
to Hobart race in which only 43 boats out of 115 entrants
finished. Six men died, and the survivors were changed
forever.
Call Jane or Gordon Groves if you wish to borrow this book.
We will maintain a list of books by category, both on the club
web site, and a printed list for the "computer challenged".
You can contact the owner of any book and borrow it for any
amount of time agreed upon between you. Book owners will
maintain their own list of personal books, and the borrowers
who are using them.
If you are willing to join this worthwhile venture, please send
a list of the books you wish to lend to Webmaster, Mike
Duvall, and a copy to Jane Groves. The list should be divided
into the following categories:
