Commodore's Comments

It's almost a given that the more things change with the Canoe Club, the more they stay the same. But not always! We faced another year with dragging out the cut up oil drums for cooking when Joe Kaukeinen came up with the remarkably rational idea of getting a club gas grill. What a difference, and why didn't someone think of that 15 years ago! Another brilliant siiggestio:: was tz pgst the minlrtes of the Board of Directors on the Club bulletin board. Now everyone can follow how our thinking and planning has changed and not changed over the years.

The commodore, on assuming office, becomes the temporary caretaker of a treasure trove of past minutes, maps, surveys, litigation papers, a metal box full of deeds, insurance papers, regatta memorabilia and other papers of note. I recently read about 6 or 7 years worth of minutes of the Board of Directors, and was struck by the frequency with which certain issues recur for discussion:

During that time, the question of a "third" boat fleet, or allowing other types of boats to be stored at the club, came up in four separate years. When the windsurfer rage started a few years ago,

many of our members pressed hard for their recognition. The Board always voted down the issues by a rather large margin---favoring the continuation of the two racing fleet format. One of the strongest arguments was the track record of clubs that reluctantly allowed unlimited boat t~ pe memberships: The Canandaguia Yacht Club being the best example.

Pat Tompkins and I were talking the other day about another situation that keeps recurring: We are a club of people in constant evolution. Many of us older members started when we were much younger; relished the gung-ho spirit of fun, competition and camaraderie that has so characterized our Club. Our kids were a part of that milieu, shared in the same pleasures, grew up and left, usually to get their own boat somewhere else. And, some of the older members wanted to "move up" to larger, more sedate racing or cruising sailboats. Many did. The Rotes, Bannisters, Geracis, Reynolds, Lassers, and Baileys, just to name a very few. And always its a sad time for all of us--those that must leave and those that stay, because we have pretty much defined

------ Jib Sheet Page #2 August -------

what our Club wants to be. So the Club itself stays young, and doesn't really change.

Steve Skewes, noted for washing his Sunfish sails from time to time in the Bay, was seen recently with his portable PC at the Club, getting input from club members for an extensive survey of club members' perceptions of their club and club goals. Steve will do the survey as a marketing project for his MBA. It will be a very important survey which you probably have received by now and it is important that all members fill it out. If you have lost your copy, call Steve or me and we will get you a new one. The survey will play a key role in determining "where the club will go" in strengthening its appeal to both the membership and potential new members.

From the Vice Commodore

We've had a beautiful summer so far. I'd like to let you know about some of the activities that are coming up.

0 Ladies! Don't spend your Sunday afternoons cooking for the family. Make a dish to pass and join your fellow club members' families for the pot luck supper. Relax at the club, dabble your feet in the water, or get a volleyball game together. it is a great time to try out new recipes. If it doesn't go over well, you can sneak the serving dish discretely into a bag and no one will know who brought it.

0 Reserve Saturday August 27. We are having a square dance at the club. If you haven't tried it before, do it this once and decide for yourself. It is a great time for beginners and veterans. it's a non-alcohol event. There will be a cookout before for those who want to come early. Members will receive a phone call with more info soon. Fee will be nominal to cover the expense of the caller.

0 The Brown Jug Regatta is on Monday, September 5. The party afterward is at the Newport Yacht Club.

0 We are hosting the Fall Frontier Thistle regatta on Sept. 10 and 1 1. Vonunteers will be needed to pull this party off. There will be a dinner on Saturday night. The more the merrier.

0 Get psyched! September 24. Clam Bake! Help is needed to plan and work on it. It looks like it will include steak for those who don't care for clatns. Those who do like them can order the number of dozens they want. More info will follow as the plans are finalized. KEEP THE DATE OPEN!

0 Our annual meeting will be on Wednesday, Sept. 28.

0 Our Sunfish Regatta is on Saturday Oct. I.

Please call me to volunteer your services. Our club members run the activities. Everyone is expected to help with the planned activities.

See you on Sundays for cocktail / appetizer hour and please feel comfortable with staying down for dinner.

Sunfish Fleet Captain

Watching the three staff members of our club's Junior Sailing School handle their individual Sunfish is no big deaf! All three; Mike Fortner, Doug Kaukeinen, Mark Weider are very talented racing skippers. So what you see is what you might expect. However, put 23 other racing skippers behind them in strong, gusty, shifty winds and their sailing skills become phenomenal! Just ask me. I was one of the 23.

The 26th Annual Sunfish Regatta, held on July 23rd, has now come and gone. A coincidence, perhaps, that there were exactly 26 participants, some from Oswego, Rome, and Olean, coming to enjoy the 6 scheduled races, the orange juice, donuts, and coffee at registration, the noon lunch, the happy hour and awards at late afternoon - all for the $10 entry fee. Needless to say, lots of RCC goodwill and "PR" was passed around.

Oh yes, the overall winners. Doug took top honors, Mark was 2nd, Mike was 3rd. Guest skippers received the next three finishing places and awards. I wish I could say other Canoe Clubbers "held back" a bit in order to let the guests earn trophies, but we didn't. They sailed well.

Four races were sailed before lunch and after it, two more. The winds came from the west even stronger in the afternoon. A mast was broken on Joe Kau keinen's boat, Doug's tiller extension snapped, capsizes were many. In fact, a few skippers elected to give up at noon and race no more under

such windy conditions. Two of them who stayed ashore thought it would be more prudent to just guard the beer cooler - which they did.

One who didn't quit, was Judy Tompkins, demonstrating some excellent sailing in addition to her usual charm we've all come to know and respect.

In closing, a word to you owners of the Sunfish which seem to stay on the racks all of the time. It's about time you put them in the water and join the fun. We try for six races every Sunday - sometimes fun sailing Thursday evenings. The "fish" look nicer with sails up than they do upside down on the rack.

Reflection on the I994 Sunfish North Americans

by Doug Kaukeinen

During the week of June 26th to July Ist, 11 RCC members ventured down to the southern hospitality of Charleston, SC for the Sunfish North Americans. The Weider family, Mike and Cindy Fortner, Mark and Jodi Faist, and Doug and Jen Kaukeinen all made the 17 hour trip. We arrived on Saturday. While unloading the boats and tinkering, we soon discovered what the weather would be like as the sweat poured out of our bodies -- HOT and HUMID. Tremendous thunderstorms generally came through around 6:00 PM.

The practice race on Sunday showed the sailors just what kind of conditions they would be facing: lots of wind, lots of current, and a very deep and competitive fleet of 109 boats.

The racing on Monday was canceled due to a day-long TORNADO watch. So it was back to the beach house. We raised the cocktail flags early, took beach chairs, Frisbee, football, and a cooler down to the waters edge to relax. After a while we contemplated why "LIFE was so tough". The body surfing was outstanding.

While the seniors were sailing 4 qualifying races on Tuesday, Max Weider was sailing in the Junior NAs. The first two races featured lighter wind and Max took advantage of it, placing in the top 10 both races. Unfortunately, the wind picked up, but Max still placed a very respectable 15th in the Junior Division. Not bad for your first NAs! All

of the RCC senior sailors qualified for the Championship fleet (was there any doubt??)

The start of the Championship Regatta was BIG WEDNESDAY. We had 3 long, grueling races that were sailed in winds of 25-30 mph. The races also had screaming reaches (the new daggerboard has a pretty hum, but it may shake apart if it ever matches its resonant frequency) and many equipment failures. We were tired puppies by the end of the day. It was nice to have the support of friend and family that night, not to mention gin to make our bodies numb.

We only had one race on Thursday in a 5-10 mph seabreeze before a thunderstorm ended the day

Friday featured 3 races in another 5-1 0 mph seabreeze.

FINAL RESULTS: Kaukeinen - 2nd, Weider - 31st, Faist - 37th, Fortner - 51st.

Highliqhts of the trip: Spending time with close friends and family. The amazing lightening storm over the ocean. The rich Charleston history and beautiful architecture. The dining (seafood). The incredible muck-men (ask us). Swimming with the porpoises. Bodysurfing. Central air conditioning. Cockroaches. Neanderthal men (ask us). Seeing a huge NUKE sub while racing.

Thistle Fleet Captian

Thank you to all that have made Thursday Night Sailing a success!

The main idea was to make it simple and fun. We have been able to give some people that attended the open house another opportunity to sail and get to know more about us and our club. Many people have had an opportunity to sail with someone different, and Judy Tompkins has had a chance to practice for the upcoming Womens Nationals. The $2.00 simple dinner deal has worked out great and we have been able to provide instruction and advice from the crash boat after the start. You still have one more chance on July 2lst if you are interested. All Sunfishers are more thafi welcome. There are rumors that some people would like to continue further. Maybe we can talk about it after racing on July 24th.

RCC was well represented in some recent district regattas. The Saratoga Regatta saw Eric Gesner place first, with Jim Tompkins placing second. Gary Fritz was sixth and Mike Fortner was eighth out of 28 participants. The DistrictsICentrals at lthaca saw Bill Wilson come out on top with Bob Bryant placing second and Doc Gates placing third. Eight other RCC Thistlers were among the twenty participants in the regatta that featured shifty winds and a very slow hoist.

See ya on the race course!!

The Regattas of Summer 94 by Judy Tompkins

The forecast for Saratoga (June 18&19) was hot, hazy, and humid, and BOY, were they right! The Race Committee was kind enough NOT to send us out to chase zephyrs, so we sat around on shore in the shade, drinking LOTS of fluids, venturing into the sun only to go swimming, until 3 in the afternoon. When the wind finally did fill in, we got one nice race off. The party was fun (as usual) and the Happy Hour spread rivalled even those at the Canoe Club! Sunday morning, the wind came in with a vengeance, and we had a good heavy air race to finish things off. The RCC finishes were: 1. Gesner, 2. Tompkins, 6. Fritz, and 8. Fortner.

It was ANOTHER hot, hazy, and humid weekend at the CentralslDistricts held at lthaca Yacht Club. All three fleets at the Canoe Club were represented here. The wind was light and VERY fluky (were those some new four-letter words I heard??), but the committee gave us 6 races, and was quite timely in getting us in just before the awesome thunderstorm on Sat! Bill Wilson won the Thistle Districts, and the RCC places were: 2. Bryant, 3. Gates, 5. Gesner, 6. Fritz, 8. Tompkins, 1 I. Armstrong, 12. Gindling, 13. Skillman, 15. Fortner, 18. Wirtz. RCC was well represented in the Sunfish fleet by the Weider's, with Max finishing 5th and Max's dad (Mark) finishing 8th--GO MAX!! Cheryl Skillman was also there in an Optimist--let's hear it for the Junior sailors!

Jib Sheet Page #6 August -------

The Thistle Great Lakes Championship was held at Erie Yacht Club, July 16-17, and wasn't nearly as hot, hazy, and humid as we've come to expect this summer! The facilities were great, the committee was very professional, and the sailing was fun (4 races in medium air)--what more is there to say?! Except that the food was excellent (and cheap!), the sunset (and sunrise) were beautiful, and the dancing downtown was interesting! Oh yeah, here's how RCC did: 6. Gesner, 7. Kaukeinen, 17. Bryant, 20. Tompkins, 21. Fritz, 27. Fortner, 28. Gates, 43. Wirtz

Remember the record hi temp On

June 16'? Well the cool steady Bay Thermal Was perfect for Our first TESTS. Did about 6 mini-races with 6 Thistles. What a great opportunit~ for folks to gain experience crewing and skippering. Finished Up with Deli stuff and burgers On Our new grill. Some new open-house folks joined the fun. June 23 saw a similar format but with even more new faces. Got rained and no-winded out On Jun 30- But still more lWA' people PIUS Some returns. Salvaged the evening with burgers and stuff. The participants agree PESTS) can be fun and instructive and it sure beats mowing the lawn.

Junior Sailing - The Future by Gary Skillman

I have seen the future and it is the current crop of junior sailors here in Rochester. Sue and l just got back from watching our daughter compete in the RYC Jr Sailing Regatta. There were 25 Optimists and a like number of Lasers. Piloted by kids of all ages from 6 to 15. This was a first class event, well planned and run, and sets a high example for the Optimist event we will be having in a few weeks. Everything was geared to the needs of the kids, of course. A lot of volunteers made it go smoothly. There were plenty of crash boats on hand to ensure safety. The littlest sailors were given the option to quit early, and some did do exactly that. A fine SW breeze (shifting to N W ) of about 10 to 15 mph provided great conditions. I wish I could have been out there with them. For those parents who wanted to, they could go out in an observer boat right near the course to see their kids in action. We got a ride ,, a 30 ft Criss Craft and had the best front row seats. Cheryl was out there from 10 AM to 3:30 PM doing 7 races, working really hard, while we were in the lap of luxury. We did exert a little energy to stand up and cheer evely once in a while. Cheryl did great. She finished 3rd in her age/skill division. ~ 1 1 the kids went away with some kind of prize, no matter where they finished. I didn't see one kid who looked like they had a bad time. The ,,tv fee was reasonable at $20, and included a lunch for the sailors, doughnut holes, juice and coffee in the morning, and pizza after the races. I'm sure they

-------- Jib Sheef Page #7 August ------

didn't make money on the event, and would be surprised if they broke even. That's the right spirit for any regatta, and certainly what you need for any junior event. What a sharp contrast to the Centrals we attended the week before.

Party at RCC! by Sue Rose

What a great place to have a party! Despite threats of rain all week and nightmares related to same --the Special Services Division of the Probation Department braved the driveway to our club to get together in an attempt to "improve morale" and forget about work for awhile. About 40 people of all job titles including clerical support and top dog administrators discovered a little piece of paradise on lrondequoit Bay. I guess the most often heard refrain was -- "Its so peaceful down here." Needless to say we don't hear that too often back at 217 West Main Street. Gary took the opportunity to play hooky from his job and took lots of non-sailors out on Yin-Yang (I was hoping for some big gusts for a couple of the guests but they all enjoyed quite civilized breezes and returned to shore unbruised.) Don VanVechten was on hand to thrill some officers with a sunfish ride and one of the guests recognized him as her math teacher from Brighton about 25 years ago! In addition to consuming large quantities of food (and drink, after county time) we battled on the volley ball court, bobbed around in the bay and had contests to see who could get back on the dock the least

gracefully, threw a couple of people in the water against their will (but they needed it) and, being good law enforcement people, had a smashing good Supersoaker blitzkrieg.. . What was really nice was that one of the Officers had her two sons in the sailing camp with Doug and Mike so not only did she get to see them in action but she got to try out an Optimist after the kids were finished. All in all it was a great time and I wouldn't be at all surprised if "morale" did get a boost. THANKS RCC!

Rochester Canoe Club and lrondequoit Bay in the 1890's

The next time you dip into the quaint old punch bowl with the frog attached at RCC, take a look at the first date on it -- 1891. This is the "Huff challenge trophy, and it was donated by one of our most famous founders, tugboat Captain George W. Ruggles, and world renowned builder of the fastest paddle and sail yachting canoes of the time. The name "Huff' reputedly came from the huffing and puffing that members did when paddling the club's 30 inch canoe called "Huff that Ruggles built in 1891 to carry a crew of 18 plus guests, or just about the whole club.

In 1891, the club was in it's tenth season and located on Newport Point (Canoe Point) where the bay bridge is now. The property was owned by William Sours, owner of the adjacent Newport House (est. 1840), which was the elite restaurant and gathering place on the bay where RCC was organized in 1881. There was a row of cottages on Newport Point leased by RCC, the Manhattan Canoe Club, and others. These were connected to The Newport House grounds by a foot bridge across a small cove. The lrondequoit Canoe Club was across the bay, in Webster, below Inspiration Point (Bluff Point), accessible by boat from Newport House.

There were at least 23 clubs on the bay before 191 0, starting with the "Early Birds and Unfortunate Worms" in 1872, whose site became a hotel in 1890, and then the home of Newport Yacht Club (organized 1936) in 1943. Four of these clubs had the Word "canoe" in their name, three said "social" and none said "sail" or "yacht". Only The Rochester Canoe Club continues from that early group, but now it is a sailing club without canoes.

Club laws adopted Nov. 9, 1886 indicate that canoes were classified by the treasurer into paddling and sailing classes according to American Canoe Association rules. Each member had the right to store one canoe and rigging in the club house, and to a locker room. Spring and Fall races are mentioned, but there

was no stated purpose of the club, although it's sixteen pages and thirty six sections (with index) cover everything else. The symbol of the club was a Frog; the burgee was the same as now. Membership was limited to 50 members (they had about 14 in 1884), and initiation fee was $5, which after 108 years of inflation compounded at 3% annually would be $122 today. And, there was no income tax!

On the bay, business was booming at summer hotels and resorts fed by new railways in addition to horse-drawn wagons. At least 5 steamboats, built on the bay, provided sight- seeing excursions and hotel-hopping between amusements. These carried about 30 to 175 passengers, the largest boat being the "N.H. Galusha", a double decker about 60 feet long. A popular round trip consisted of a railway ride from the city to Charlotte, a steamboat ride to the Seabreeze pier on the lake, a second steamboat on the bay to Glen Haven (stopping at popular resorts between), and another railway back to the city. There were also naphtha launches running between bay resorts; the first gasoline-powered boat appeared in 1901, owned by the Unique Social Club just north of Bay View. Fishing and boating were popular in canoes and rowboats, which could be rented.

In the 1890-1900 era, there were about 17 hotelslresorts on the bay, almost all on the west side and outlet sandbar where transportation was available. The bay was effectively closed by a private bridge (5 feet clearance) in 1867, followed by the railroad bridge in 1875, until it reopened in 1985. A few notable places that remain are: Newport House, Float Bridge Hotel (Tiffany's), Drakes Landing (Glen Edith), and Sea Breeze. Other popular hotels, long gone, were: Birds and Worms, Bay View, Glen Haven, and Point Pleasant.

The Rochester Canoe Club acquired the summer place of Mayor Hiram Edgerton in 191 4, just 1700 feet south of Newport House, where it is today.

- From the Editors

This issue is just about ready for printing. The morning has been spent formatting, spell-checking, cutting, and pasting. The newest version of Microsoft Word (6.0) lets you "futz" till it looks just right. Lots of computer horsepower helps. (just like boats, there's no reason for a slow computer either)

Some subtle and maybe insignificant things can take a lot of time. For example, working out the order to present the articles. It's a trial and error process to give each article it's best position and presentation while maintaining some semblance of theme. For this issue it worked out best to have the Sunfish articles before the Thistle and general articles. Hope You like it.

As always, the authors deserve a big a ~ n d of applause. Writing an article for the Sheet takes thought and effort and at times could seem like just I another d--- deadline in what is assumed to be already busy schedules. But, it is an excellent way to do something nice for Club. Please continue to let each of the contributors know how much you enjoyed their work.

-----a Jib Sheet Page #10 August ---a

During this first semester of the summer we had the pleasure of having Joe Kaukeinen sailing with us on "Eat My WakeJ' (affectionately referred to as "the Wake*). It was a great experience (you might want to check with Joe on this), and a good step towards us learning how to sail our boat. Joe was an excellent teacher and a lot of fun to sail with. Thanks Joe. By the way, if Doug wants to do the SF Internationals in 95 ...

If you were at the club during the week of July 25 to 29th you might have noticed some taller then usual Junior Sailors in Mike and Doug's class. Good observation. Bob Slebodnik, Jeff Goettenburg, Ken Vorndran, and Rich joined with 5 legitimate Jr. Sailors for the third week of Day Camp at RCC. It was a most excellent week. Hopefully there will be an article in the next Jib Sheet.

Things Heard and Seen ...

Jim Gindling headed up a work party that built the "Don VanV Memorial Steps" to replace the tilting ones at the west entrance to the club house. Nice work!

The questionnaire sent to you by Steve Skewes was due back last week. If you didn't return yours, please feel obligated to do a 720 the next time you float your boat.

1 Don't forget to check out the minutes to the Board of Governors meetings; they are now posted in the clubhouse. (Big thanks to Judy for making the BORED meetings seem exciting.)

Note the date: Saturday, August 6, 8:00 AM, RCC Optimist Day. Be there!

Mike Fortner purchased a great looking 4 foot by 4 foot magnetic "white board" for use at the Jr. S. classes and for club use. Let there be "chalk talk after the races. Thanks Mike.

Eric G designed, proposed, bought materials, built, and installed many additional shelves for holding all the sails in the Captains Room. It is a HUGE improvement! (So where's the paint?) Thanks Eric.

July 10th: did the earth move for you? Was it an earthquake? Perhaps just the committee boat landing. Barb?

An aftershock - July 24? Or, just Gang Green hitting the Bay Bridge?

Club Baby (CB Kaukeinen) and Judy Tomkins were each 1 years old on July 30. ( 1 lied about one of there ages.) Happy Birthday to both of you!

Jan and Rich will be celebrating a 25th on September 27. New sails and good wishes would be greatly appreciated.

During the Sunday drifter with Newport on July 24, Gang Green made several passages under the Bay Bridge, one of which was west to east!
