Club Manager Update
– I have some good news,
the Club Manager Selection
Committee after reviewing
over 50 resumes has
selected a candidate and he
has accepted the Club
Manager’s position starting May 16. His name is
Normand (Norm) Cote. He grew up in Kailua and
now lives with his wife, Rebecca, and son, Branden in
Kaneohe. Norm comes from a food and beverage
background of working in the military officer’s club
organization in Hawaii and Japan. He also has
waterfront experience as he is currently working at the
Marina at MCBH. We will have Welcome Reception
for members to meet Norm that will be schedule in
late May or early June. I want to thank the members
of the selection committee (Tom Pochereva, Tom
Wood, Frederic Berg, Greg LeLesch, Chuck
Cotton, and Rick Osborne) for their diligence and
hard work though out this selection process.
The first week of May starts off with back to
back events. Cinco de Mayo falls on a Thursday so
the Galley will provide Mexican specials along
with the regular menu. The bar will feature special
prices on Mexican beers, margaritas on the rocks,
and tequila shots. Before racing on Thursday stop
by the bar to quench your thirst. The next day is
First Friday music and we have Harry Koizumi
playing at 6:30 PM. We are also planning another
Friday night music event on May 20 featuring Brant
Swigart.
The second Sunday May 8 is Mother’s Day
and we have a great Mother’s Day Brunch planned
in the Long House. The brunch features an Omelet
Bar, Hot Items, and a Carving Station featuring
Prime Rib and New York Strip Steak. Please make
reservations now as it is filling up fast.
The Lipton Cup One Offshore Challenge was
held on April 23-24 off Waikiki. Waikiki Yacht
Club is the defending champion and the KYC
challenge came from Trois Ami and Frederic Berg.
The trade winds were back with gusts of 25 – 30
MPH which created some very interested sailing
conditions. Although WYC retained the Cup,
Frederic and crew deserves a lot of credit as they
sailed great races and put in a gallant effort – see
Frederic’s article for more details.
Sail fast and stay safe
Vice Commodore
Tom Wood
Aloha all. The
month of April is now
behind us and the racing
season is in full swing.
With the improving
weather and longer days
we see more recreational
powerboat activity as
well as sailing on the Bay and increasing amounts
of people out and about at the club. This is of course
great to see – that is after all what its for.
First Friday for May will be on the 6th just in
time for a post Cinco de Mayo celebration so come
on down and join the fun.
The Lipton Cup Challenge was held over the
weekend of the 23rd and Rear Commodore Frederic
Berg skippered the KYC entry. While he came in
second overall, he was the only one that managed to
beat the first place boat in any race. A well sailed
regatta by Frederic and crew. Congratulations to
you all.
As we approach summer it is time to start
thinking about safety all around, so here’s some
safety highlights to get you in the mindset:
1. Keep an eye on the keiki, especially around
the pool or open water. Remember life jackets are
required to be worn onboard boats for the kids
under 13.
2. Be extra careful in the pool when there is no
lifeguard present.
3. Do not swim in the marina.
4. Take time to review your safety gear onboard,
that’s PFDs, First Aid kits, Flares, etc.
5. Think ahead for Hurricane Season, review
your food, water, and other safety items at home
and have a plan for securing your vessel if a storm
approaches.
6. Now is also a great time to review your
insurance coverage – and for those storing their
boats at the club, please provide a copy of your boat
coverage to the Office.
For those in wet moorings, please take time to
review your mooring lines and the tiedown eyes on
the piers. If there are issues with any of your tie
down points, please let the office know so those
issues can be corrected as soon as possible. We can
all hope that we have an uneventful year, but early
preparation can greatly lessen the damage to your
boat, other boats, and the club’s facilities should we
be unlucky.
Stay safe whether at the club or on the water.
Rear Commodore
Frederic Berg
April is behind us
and what a month it was.
The Pasha Hawaii 2016
International
Fourteen
Pacific Rim Championship Regatta was
hosted at Kaneohe Yacht
Club from April 2nd to
5th. The children enjoyed sailing on the I 14s on
Sunday and there were several local teams
participating. Thanks to Andy Bates and his crew
of volunteers and sponsors for a great event. KYC
appreciates the recognition we get from around the
Pacific Basin when we put on such great events.
Andy Bates is also behind the recent activity
you see Friday nights as the adults and children
battle it out in El Toros, Bics, Toppers, 420s, FJs and
Lasers. Andy has converted Friday nights to an all
out dinghy fest. Up and coming sailors are
definitely to be found in this group.
The Bulkhead races are building as the summer
sun wanes ever later in the day. The courses are
getting longer and the competition is heating up.
Thanks to Sime and John for taking on the finishing
duties and of course Bill Riddle for his long and
continued dedication to getting start times and
ensuring the races go off without a hitch.
And then there was Lipton Cup. What can I say,
the defender has won every Lipton Cup race (not
just the series but every race) for the past four years,
except one which the KYC challenger won. This
year saw winds from 10 to 25 knots and the results
didnʻt change. Kaneohe Yacht Club put together an
excellent challenge with a great team and got
second, but as the Queen of England was once told,
“there is no second”. We should thank the crew
onboard the KYC challenger: Steve Valentin, bow;
Garret Venama, mast; Randy Reed, halyards and
crew chief; Daniel Hull, trimmer; Phillip Katzman,
trimmer; Raoul Magana, tactitian; and yours truly
bringing up the rear, as usual. It is truly an honor to
represent Kaneohe Yacht Club. Where ever we go
we get accolades for the way KYC supports our
sport.
There are several seminars coming up that are
great opportunities to improve your understanding
of sailboat racing and a way to give back to the
sport. First up is the Club Judge Seminar April 30th.
Hawaii is in deep need of judges after loosing three
in the last several years. Following on May 1st and
2nd is the Advanced Judge Seminar. For the many
of you who have been and continue to volunteer for
Race Committee duty, please consider the Race
Management Seminar on May 21st and finally to get
caught up on the Racing Rules of Sailing, consider
the June 3rd Racing Rules Seminar. Check
elsewhere for location and times. Thanks goes out
to our Staff Commodore, Tom Pochereva for
organizing and putting on these Seminars.

An Invitation to all KYC Members:
The KYC Fishing Fleet will be having a Membership Drive Meeting
on May 6th open to all KYC Members. We wanted to dispel the rumors
that it required an "invitation only" to join the most fun filled fleet at
KYC:).
You could be asking yourself why the Fishing Fleet? Well I'd be glad to
answer that for you.
Firstly, we adhered to our Four F's of the Fishing Fleet Charter
Fellowship, Fun, Food and Fishing!!!
Secondly, you do not have to be a fisher person or a stinkpotter to join.
We have many members who are from all of the different fleets even the
Sailing Fleets and Tennis Fleets.
Thirdly, we have the most fun, from our Sand Bar Parties,our Monthly
Pot Luck Meeting, our major involvement in the American Cancer
Association's Relay for Life Fundraising Party not to mention that we
are the number one Fundraiser for the Relay Event,to our annual Steak
n Crab Fest at the end of our season.
So what is so special about this year in the Fishing Fleet, everyone is
invited and we will be selling our famous Fishing Fleet T's for men and
women at the meeting in May.
If you are a new member this is great way to meet, participate, and have
a ton of fun at your club. It is also a good way to get some fresh fish
from the boats.
Oh yes I almost forgot we have six fleet Fishing Tournaments from May
to October. You can fish any day in the month to qualify your fish. You
can contact me regarding the rules. We have a $500,00 Biggest Fish of
the year contest and we award the most sought after title of Fisherman
of the Year Trophy.
If you are interested in attending our May Kick Off please reply to
Atherpac@aol.com. It would be appreciated but not required.
I look forward to seeing you all on May 6th.

Aloha,
A big thank you goes out to the Pac Rim I-14
sailors who ran the Junior Clinic on April 2. Over a
dozen kids from all over the island were invited to
participate and got to sail the I-14s. Now we’re hooked!
We would like to do more of this kind of sailing and
really enjoyed learning about the boats. If anyone has
room for a junior on their boat please let us know!
Thanks also to Andy Bates for organizing the event, we loved it!
April 29 was our first Movie Night and it was a great success. 18 kids came
to the Upper Deck to watch “Minions: Go Back to the Beginning.” Don’t forget
to bring a pillow and blanket next time and also to help clean up after the movie
is over. Our next Movie Night is Friday May 27. We’ll be showing “Home”.
Here’s a brief summary: After a hive-minded alien race called the Boov conquer
the Earth, they relocate the planet's human population -- all except for a little girl
named Tip, who's managed to hide from the aliens, this movie is rated PG and
it’s 1:34 minutes long. Movie starts at 7:00 pm.
For those of you who haven't yet signed up for Sail Camp you better hurry
because it’s just around the corner on the weekend of May 14 and 15. Once
again Sail Camp is going to be an amazing experience with tents, sailing, games
and all types of fun. I hope to see every junior there!
Stay safe and sail fast!

PAC RIM Summary
The Pasha Hawaii 2016 International Fourteen Pacific Rim
Championship Regatta was hosted at Kaneohe Yacht Club from April
2nd to 5th. The event had three sponsors, Pasha Hawaii a local
community and environmentally aware ocean transportation company,
Hawaiian Fine Furniture who provided beautiful hand carved Koa wood
half-models for trophies, and the Global Sports Alliance (gsa.org) who
sponsored the Ecoflag program that promotes clean air and clean water
through sporting events worldwide, primarily aimed at young people
doing sporting activities. GSA has sponsored the event since 2006. This
year’s event included sailors from Japan, Australia, England, Italy, and
Canada. Most of them chartered local boats to augment the two
containers that Pasha Hawaii sponsored enabling boats from California
to participate.
Youth Skiff Sail Training
PASHA Hawaii 2016 I-14 Pac Rim sailors collaborate with our sponsors
to host a youth sail training component. This year it was bigger than
ever. Pasha Hawaii arranged for two television spots with youth
interviews on KITV news. The first one was a week before the event and
was a live TV interview with Kaneohe YC youth sailors Kiana and
Kahea Heitzman. The second interview took place at KYC during the
sail training with participants. There was also a half-page article in
MidWeek prior to the regatta. This statewide exposure of youth sailing,
and sailboat racing in general made it possible for the public to come out
and see the competition as well as join in the training event. Our
sponsor Pasha Hawaii and Laurie Lagrange’s efforts brought more
interest to the sport of sailing.
The skiff training ashore and I-14 rides on the bay occurred on a
beautiful Sunday morning. The wind was a steady 12 knots. Youth
sailors from three Yacht Clubs across the island of Oahu participated.
Photographers took photos from the float boat as the young sailors
switched in and out crewing with the racers aboard some of the newest
I-14 boats competing in the world.
PAC RIM Racing
Clark Fremgen facilitated running the races over 3 days, in his usual
flawless manner. This was his 7th time as Principal Race Officer (PRO)
for the event. His team of KYC volunteers did a tremendous job setting
courses in a shifting breeze during the first two days of sailing. The
racing started and finished as scheduled and all eight races were
completed as planned. Volunteers included float boat drivers Mark
Logan, Fuzz Foster, and Charlie Stone with KYC and visitor crews each
day. Jenny Vickery from Australia and local boatman Rick Pelton
supported “Clarky” on the RC boat. Maureen Bates was the windward
mark set boat with visitor, and former 14er Eric Arens. Thanks to the
Judge team led by WYC sailor Joseph Shacat that included Michael
Roth, Steve Thomas and Rich Macready.
Former World Champion Kris Bundy and his long time crew Fritz
Lanzinger dominated this year’s competitive fleet of 21 boats with three
firsts, three seconds, and two fourths. There were no throw out races in
this event. Terry Gleeson and Evan Sjostedt placed second. Terry is the
current USA I-14 President and reigning National Champion. Long time
14ers Steve Goodson and Alan Diercks from Seattle were third, with
only one point separating them from second place. They are the current
North American champions. Joe Bercsh and Canadian Leith Shenstone
were one point back in fourth place and Chris Rutz and Michael
Radziejowski from the Bay Area placed fifth. The racing was very close
and one shift or dying breeze would change the results for places 2, 3,
and 4. The racing at the top of this fleet was very close and competitive
right up to the last run home in the last race.
Inside the racing fleet three separate competitions were taking place at
the same time. Nine boats competed for the I-14 ‘Classic” trophy which
is for boats designed prior to 2003. All of the local Hawaii fleet fits that
category. Stewart Vickery, from Australia, sailing with his daughter
Freya won the event convincingly in a Bieker 3 design. Dominic Van
Essen from England and Simona Saccani from Italy finished second.
Local youth sailor Lars Von Sydow, sailing with his father Harold
finished third.
In the female division there were seven competitors. Freya Vickery won
with Simona Saccani second and local KYC and UH sailor Maddy
Kennedy third. The final division was determined by age.
There were six sailors over 60 years of age still competitively racing
the I-14 (they may need their heads examined). This is known as the
“Old Farts” division. Long time I-14 sailor from Santa Barbara, CA,
Ron Boehm with crew JV Gilmour won this division. Stewart Vickery
was second and local sailor Andy Bates was third. Special note: Alan
Laflin returned after retiring last year to sail with Paul Disario who
started sailing I14’s in the early 1960’s. They are both in their 70’s and
finished all but one race!!!!
The awards banquet featured young fire dancers and Hula dancers from
Palama Settlement’s youth program. These young performers did an
amazing job of “safely” entertaining the crowd. The performers ranged
in age from 4 to 15 years old.
This year’s entries from overseas competitors provided sufficient funds
from charting local boats to support a full scholarship to the KYC Youth
sailing program this summer. Mahalo to our competitors for their
generosity.
Hawaii State Championships
An annual long distance race starting from the KYC bulkhead was held
on the last day of the event with 16 boats. The pursuit race starting
sequence is based on the scores from the PAC RIM. It is not counted in
the PAC RIM series. There is also an award for the fastest elapsed time
for this race. The fleet started at 11:00AM, in a building 10-14 knot
breeze from the north.
The course included club marks F, A, Coconut Island to port, F, Sampan
Channel out to R2 to port, back through the Sampan gate and finish at
the club line outside the harbor. The fleet got off without incident, the
winners of the PAC RIM left the bulkhead at 11:26AM. Local sailors
Tom Pochereva and Yovo Stefanov led for the first half of the race until
they had a “swim” near R2. Chris Rutz and Michael Radziejowski took
the lead only to be passed half way down the channel leg by Steve
Schumaker and Channing Hamlet who also capsized while jibing at the
end of the channel. Rutz and Radziejowski regained the lead and held
it the rest of the way back to the finish to win the race and finish 5th
overall in elapsed time. Goodson and Diercks were a close second
finishing 2nd in elapsed time, and Ron (Old Fart) Boehm finished third
sailing with JV Gilmour. Terry Gleeson sailing with Fritz Lanzinger
were the fastest elapsed time sailing the entire course in 1hr:10 min:55
sec. Almost all of the fleet sailed the entire second half of the race from
R2 to the Red and Green entrance marks with their kites up. It was a
very fast and exciting race!
This was the ninth running of this unique sailing event that features
youth advanced skiff training and environmental awareness. The entire
KYC staff, caterers, club volunteers, youth from Palama Settlement,
and sponsors made this the best PAC RIM ever. The Hawaii I-14 fleet
“Thanks” all of you for being gracious, kind, and professional hosts in
the Aloha spirit we cherish.

April was a month of winds and rains but that didn’t stop our
monthly tournament on April 16th. There were 20 players and the
playing went from 8:30 all the way ‘til 1:30. There were some great
matches like the one with Keegan and Rob playing Aaron and Bob
Babyack…….it ended up in a tie at 4-4 with some hard playing on both
sides. At the end there was a 3 way tie for men’s first place with the
winners being Bob Babyack, Greg Siok, and Bob Yoder. Winning for
the women was Linnea Brooks in 1st place, Donlei Darnell in 2nd and
Jean Fernie in 3rd. The theme for the potluck was Mexican and with
several sombreros and other colorful accessories, the mood and the food
were great……as always.
Other players were Terry Beuret, Steve Brooks, Betsy Denzer,
Keegan Giles, JoAnn Goebert, Sime Gross, Rich Heaton, Wayne
Jackson, Lynn Pease, Aaron and Sherri Phillips, Rob Rietow, Cindy
Siok, Fran Tannen…….a great turnout.
Planning has already started on next months’ catered dinner to be
held after the Tom Collins ‘Big Time’ Tournament on May14th. This
will be teams of men and teams of women who will remain a team in a
double elimination format. Get your partner soon or your choice may
be taken!!! The menu will be announced soon and sign up information
will follow.
Did you know that besides the weekend informal round robins held
8-11 Saturday and Sunday, that there are players who show up every
Friday, late afternoon, and play short quick games. Players jump in on
a first-come first-serve basis, until it’s too dark to see. Everyone gets to
play because of the quick change over. Come on down and try it!!!!
A big round of applause is sent to Rob Rietow for continuing to
maintain the courts and he has also added the landscape around the
courts to his workload Last tournament you could find Rob weeding
between his matches! I know that such dedication is appreciated but it
would be nice to give Rob a pat on the back and let him know you
notice.
Due to a failed computer you will find all the photos on the bulletin
board, thanks to Kit Beuret for printing them out.
FINISH LINE WATCH STANDERS NEEDED
Have you ever been up to Kansas Tower on MCBH? The view is absolutely spectacular! Here’s an opportunity to participate with the Finish
Line Committee up at Kansas Tower to watch the Pacific Cup racing yachts
cross the finish line at sunrise, sunset or during the day. Two-man teams
stand 4 or 6-hour watches, starting when the first finisher is expected on
July 21st until the last yacht crosses the line, not later than Friday, 7/29.
Attention New Members! Here’s a chance to get involved with
the club and meet new friends! We will have a couple of training sessions
and provide you with all the information you need; you’ll decide when
you can stand watch. We’d like you to take at least two (2) shifts over the
week, but if you’re already working with other committees, we’ll take
whatever we can get from you!
If you’re at all interested, but not quite sure…contact me ASAP
(since we’re getting started a little late) with any questions or concerns.
