October 2018 Volume XCIV Number 10 - Kaneohe Yacht Club
JUNIOR SAILING DIRECTOR
                             Jesse Andrews
                                  September is always a highly anticipated month
                             at KYC for Laser and El Toro sailors. The Laser
                             State Championships and El Toro State
                             Championships took place on two separate
                             weekends in September with oddly similar
                             conditions. Spotty, shifty and light trade winds made
                             for more inconsistent finishes for the competitors.
                             Being on the correct side of the course was the only
                             thing that really mattered in some races. In the last
Laser race of the series two smaller radial sails came out of the right side to
finish first and second overall! The rest of the day the left side had been paying
off and John Myrdal was playing that side very well.
      Prior to the start we emphasize to the Junior sailors to stand up as high as
they can in their boats about one minute before the start to see what side of the
course looks like it has better wind. When it is light air in Kaneohe Bay finding
the best wind on the course is of great importance. I enjoy seeing these kids
thinking about their start strategy and modifying it to the conditions as they
change through out the start. Sailing really helps you think about all the different
variables of mother nature, wind speed, direction, other boats causing bad air,
right of way, time and distance to the start line, correct sail trim and body                                                                                           Makani Andrews
positioning in the boat and that is all before the start!
      Back to the Laser States, John Myrdal put on yet another clinic winning the
event for about the 20th time I believe! It is inspirational and great for kids to
sail against someone of John's caliber out there. By just watching him sail it
makes you learn many small things that make him so fast! He wasn't immortal
in the light and shifty conditions every race this year with one race being
snatched away from him by Max Roth. He gave the rest of the fleet a chance
by using his last race as throwout race he headed in and the rest of the fleet were
ready to battle for that top spot. Benton Widlanski came out of the right corner
with a substantial lead along with fellow radial sailor Makani Andrews. After
a split downwind Makani ended up passing Benton and holding on for the win.
A great way for my boy to celebrate turning 11! Congrats to the 27 sailors who
competed all weekend long and to the 12 trophy winners below.

of many other boats that a 90 pound 11 year old and a 6' 60 something year old
can be in a battle for the overall win! This time the two oldest sailors in the

I-14 Fleet News:

     The I-14 has had a long gap between Classboat races. We
complete the season with three races and a Fleet gathering on Oct
20 which will introduce new people interested in joining our fleet
to sailing 14s in one of the best venues in the world for dinghy
racing. More details on this event will be available on the KYC
weekly e-newsletter that Tracey puts out.

I-14 World Championships;
San Francisco Bay
     Our sister club, Richmond YC, hosted the I-14 International
Team racing event and the individual World Championships August
12-24. Three members of the Hawaii I-14 Fleet participated.
Michael " Blackbeard " Pacholski was selected to be a member of
the USA team and represent our fleet in the 35th running of the
International Team races.
     This Team racing event started in 1933 and has continued with
                                                                            Need to sell

international dinghy Team Racing competition in the world. Six

teams from five countries competed (Two teams from Germany).
     The two-day competition was hard fought and closely
contested in moderate breeze just outside the Richmond YC break
                                                                              Or buy
wall. The USA Team made it to the semi-finals and finished third
overall. The British team had superior boat speed and the Aussies          a car or boat?
were fast in the stronger breeze and finished second. I was on the
race committee and was also emcee for the final dinner that
included skits from all the teams. A good time was had by all, and
the organizers did a great job managing this important event.
     Kevin Rogers and I sailed the first two races on the Berkeley
Circle with a great deal of difficulty. The breeze was 20 knots plus                   Maybe I can help
and there was an ebb tide. The fleet had lots of swims and we had
to sail in both days before finishing. On Day 3 I fell on the tiller
extension after a capsize and got a hairline rib fracture. Kevin sailed
a great race with stand-in Daniel Roberts (aka "Sid Vicious"). He
guest crewed with the long time bay sailor Rand Arnold on the
Bumblebee boat.
     The British and Aussie sailors dominated in the heavy breeze.        Over 40 years experience
The first USA boat was sailed very well by Mikey Polish - they
finished 10th overall. The next I-14 Worlds’ is in Perth, Australia in      in car and boat sales.

HOW TO GET AN AUDIENCE FOR THE CLARE
LANG TENNIS CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH ON A
SATURDAY AFTERNOON??? How about…….. Free
Margaritas…..Free Beer……… Free Wine……and a Taco Bar!

     While brainstorming for ideas to get Tennis Fleet members out to The Clare
Lang Tournament Finals Match, Ann Ayling and Donlei Darnell came up with the
concept. Certainly, members would attend a hosted event, with a Taco Bar!
      It was a success with over 30 thirsty and hungry people attending to see Rob
Rietow and Jan Bodinus play Dana Nottage and Bill Blakeney for the trophy.
Rietow/Bodinus were the winning team after a very fun match. Others teams
entered were Ko and Pam Isayama, Greg and Cindy Siok, Rich Leclerc and Susie
Jannuzzi, and Wayne Jackson and Betsy Denzer.
     The taco bar was delicious with so many toppings to choose from, including
fabulous guacamole and homemade salsa. And of course the margaritas were
wonderful. We thought we would order two pitchers from the bar and ended up
getting five!
                                                                                     Winners of the Clare Lang….Rob Rietow and Jan Bodinus
