                                                                                                     From the Pilothouse
              If you thought a Leprechaun is protective of his pot of gold…
                                                                                         Commodore Dave Murree

   I
           am writing this month's article from 30,000 feet over the Pacific on my way to Japan. The 12-hour flight has
          provided me much time to reflect on the many things going on at our Club. I will highlight a few here, but I hope you
          take the time to read through each article to get a full appreciation of what YOU, our Club members, are doing.
        We are one month into our Walk-in Wednesday's Soup and Salad Bar where each week more and more of you are
   joining us. Tammi and I have gone every Wednesday and have enjoyed talking with many of you. For those that haven't
   had a chance to stop by, I highly recommend it. While you’re here, check out the enormous Queen Mary trophy which has
   returned to CCYC thanks to Garry Adalian! Our Beer Can Races start on March 15th and the soup and salad bar will be a
   quick and easy way for our sailors to enjoy their victories or lick their wounds. Either way, we guarantee a good time.
   Last month we learned more about the future of our neighboring boat yard. The leaseholder, Keith Mishkin, received
   approval from the Port to move onto the next phase of his planned Cottages at the Cays. I attended the Port meeting with
   many of you and spoke against it. Unfortunately, our arguments were not enough to win the day and the Port
   Commissioners voted 4-3 to allow the commencement of numerous studies to include environmental
   and traffic impacts. Being that the development is not in the best interest of our Club, we
   will continue to closely monitor and oppose this project. Our next milestone is in August,
   which marks the end of our current lease for use of the Bocce Ball and open grass areas
   on the northeast corner of our beautiful peninsula.

   Please join me on March 4th at 9am for our next Coffee with the Commodore. In addition
   to coffee, we will have hot pancakes and sausages. I'll provide a brief update on Club-
   related items and then we can discuss whatever is on your mind. Following the meeting,
   there will be the forth and final Winter Classic sail race. Good luck to all of our racers! For
   those who can, stick around to watch the start or volunteer to crew on one of the boats.
   Lastly, I’ve emailed our updated 2023 Fee Schedule to the membership. While costs have
   increased in nearly every aspect of our daily lives, the good news is that the Board believes
   we will be able to keep our Club's fee increases relatively low. Rather than deplete our reserves
   down to a dangerously low level, the Board voted to have a one-time assessment for our
   critical infrastructure needs. Our roof developed several leaks over the last few years and the
   heavy rains have caused several sink holes between our building and the seawall. We expect
   these repairs to cost the Club approximately $150,000. By keeping our reserves healthy,
   we strengthen the Club's long term financial position as we prepare for our
   forthcoming lease renewal negotiations with the Port.
   Thanks to all of you that continue to volunteer your time to make CCYC
   truly the friendliest and busiest yacht club in San Diego!
   I hope to see you around the Club!

       Thank you, thank you, thank you! To so many of you who have offered your time, talent, and treasure to
       help us implement the ambitious list of improvements underway at our Club! The energy is high, the music
rings out, and small kindnesses lift us all up!
Specific thanks to Terri Brazell and Leslie Hastings for Valentine’s Day preparations, to Jason Thomas for another
evening of happy feet music, to Trish Graisy for installing new tops on our Lipton room side tables, and to Jen and
Mel Blair for organizing a fabulous Blind Wine Tasting at which 40 of our Members selected our second and third
tier of House Wines.
Look for the updated wine list with the new house wine choices as well as
a daily wine special!

ON THE HORIZON
1. Roof repairs will get underway this month.
2. Our new phone system is installed and operating. Members are now

   Reserving online at ccyc.org/reserve is still the fastest way to get the
   best available dining time slot.
3. Our Maintenance office will be relocated so that we can expand our
   kitchen.
4. After detailed research by our Financial Advisory Committee (FAC),
   plans for new point of sale and accounting systems are underway.
   Expected to be in place by May 1st, the following is a list of
   improvements for our members:
  ‣   Servers will be taking your food and beverage orders on an iPad
      right at your table. Those orders will go directly to the kitchen and
      bar for faster service.
  ‣   Realtime food inventory will let each server know (while they are
      at your table) if only a limited number of certain items are
                                                                                        CORONADO CAYS YACHT CLUB

  ‣   This dining POS system will also keep track of our “member
      favorites.”
  ‣   Members will be able to see their balances and pay their bills 24/7 by logging into their
      accounts.
  ‣   Members will receive a single monthly invoice that will clearly show their charges:
      these include recurring charges, dining, bar, and special events.
  ‣   Our Membership Directory has been redesigned and will be online and regularly
      updated with New Member information. This system will NOT allow retrieval of
      data by others for marketing purposes. The 2023 Directory will be published
      shortly (free to members), and by 2024, paper copies of the directory can
      be ordered for a fee.
Let’s all be patient with each other as we scale the inevitable learning curve that
will accompany these changes. We all want to do our best to serve!

See you out on the water!

      ave you seen our new C-Dock? If not, stop by and take a look. We’ve also installed
      new aluminum ramps on C, D and E, as well as a new finger on A-Dock. I would like
      to thank everyone who helped out in the transitioning of boats, both outbound and
now back into their shiny new slips. Special thanks goes out to the homeowners who kindly
allowed us to use their slips while C-Dock was being renovated.
We had a great turnout for the
Marine Skimmer Ribbon Cutting
Ceremony for the two skimmers that
were installed late last year.
Commodore Dave Murree and Van
Peterson were Masters of Ceremony
and quite a few officials attended:

‣ Councilman Mike Donovan
‣ Port Commissioner Frank Urtasun
‣ President and Founder of Emerald
 Keepers Amy Steward and her
 Cays Representatives Tim Rush
 and Julia Elassaad

‣ Rachel  Beck representing
 Supervisor Terra Lawson.
Thank you again to Chris and Bill

On February 25th, the marina held a “Meet & Greet” for all the Marina
Slip Tenants where we introduced each of the Dock Captains. Stay tuned
for all the great ideas and suggestions!
It’s that time again to get your boats polished up and in good running
condition for our upcoming Spring and Summer season.
General Inspections of your vessels will be starting on April 1st.
These will be done by your dock captains and/or yours truly.

See you on the docks!

Around the Water
Before you know it, it will be CCYC’s Opening Day 2023. This year it will be
Saturday, May 6th. We are pushing for an amazing turnout for this year’s Opening
Day Boat Parade. This is a great way to kick off the boating season. Dress up your boats, your crew, and
your friends and join us for the festivities.
As always, we will have two themes. For those traditional folks in the Club, we are excited about having many of the
boats decorated in the traditional yacht club theme. Don’t forget to get that champagne bottle perfectly set above
the water line.
Our fun theme this year will be “Under the Big Top.” Since we are all members of the circus we call
CCYC, I’m sure you will be able to have lots of fun with this theme. Use your imagination and you
may be selected as the winner.
Trophies and prizes will be awarded for the most impressive boat in each category. We expect
power, sail, and electric boats/dinghies to join in. Timing, parade route and further instructions
will be forthcoming.
Turnout for the last few parades were a bit light, so here’s a challenge: let’s double last year’s
participation! There is a sign-up sheet in the breezeway at the Club or email Glenn Cross @
fleetcaptain@ccyc.org if you plan to participate.

Looking forward to a great turnout!

Attention all CCYC Sailboat Racers!
At the last Sail Fleet meeting I talked about the change in policy of Regatta Network, “Please note, that due to
increasing costs, we no longer support $0 registrations. As such, you will need to add a valid
registration fee for members in your events.”
The minimal fee that works without extra cost is $20.00 per series. Regatta Network only takes
7% of the fees. The balance goes into the Sail Fleet budget. I will use these funds for the Sail Fleet
Awards dinner.
In the past, I have preregistered members for each series. I can still do this for our members, but
since there is a fee, I will need to charge your Club account $20.00 for each of the series in
which you are registered. If you are not going to race in ether of the upcoming Beer Can or
Spring Series, please let me know before March 8th, 2023. I will not register you so you will
not be charged. Non-members will still need to sign-up for each series with the $30.00
fee. Scoring only the boats that are racing is better for the overall series results.

                                                                          Main Sail Trim

U.S. Flag Traditions
There has been a lot of
discussion about the way
we display the American
flag here at the Club.
Many people are
offended that we fly our
Club burgee higher than
the U.S. flag. Yacht clubs
come from a very long
connection with Nautical
traditions, which go back
to the days of sailing
ships.
If you look at this sailing ship from the 1800s, you will see the American flag is flying at the peak of the
aftermost sail. This was a position above the captain’s cabin and a position of honor. You will also notice
the flag flying from the top of the mast. This was traditionally where the owner of the ship would fly his
banner referred to as the “house flag.” Looking at our Club’s flag pole, you will see how the position of
the flags represents this long standing tradition. — Sail Fleet Captain Darrell McNurlan

Power Up!
January’s Whale Watching event was a great time! We had seven boats and fifty-six participants
out to try to spot the southbound migrating gray whales heading to the warm water off Mexico. As
the day neared, there was some concern that wind and swell might come up and put a damper on
the morning. Although less than ideal, conditions
were good enough to venture off shore and see
what we could find.

We were successful adventurers and spotted
several different whales. A few boats followed
one whale for multiple surface intervals,
complete with large blows and fluking activity. I
am grateful to live in a place where we can take a
boat immediately off our coast and view one of
the oldest living species of mammals, estimated
to have been on Earth for 30 million years.

I want to thank all of the captains who stepped
up to offer space on their boats for those who
signed up looking for a ride. I also appreciate
the participants who took the opportunity to
come out, meet some new people, and get on
the water. An event like this is a perfect example
of what makes our Club special. Stay tuned for a
possible repeat in April or May as the gray
whales begin their northern migration to Alaska.

Our Kayaking Adventure to the Sea Turtles has
been postponed to March 12th at 9am due to weather. I hope you to see you all out there!

On another subject, if you’re a fisherman or interested in getting on a boat to
fish, please hit me up. There are several tournaments hosted by other San
Diego Yacht Clubs scheduled for the summer months, and I’m trying to get a
read on those who might want to participate.

Henry Ford said, “Money is like an arm or leg - use it or lose it.” The same
goes for your boat. So get them running and run them often!

See you around the Club and on the water!

10   THE NAVIGATOR

What’s in                    A long time ago, before some readers were born, the Club had a
                             Jr. Program. It wasn’t big, only about 20 kids and one dog. While

a Name?                      not big, we were active. One of our members, a burly but bright
                             youngster who shunned little boats (the sabot class was our
default), opted for a more substantive craft and persuaded his dad to get him a fiberglass 26
footer with a small cuddy and a fin keel. He kept it over in the Green Turtle area, sorta
opposite the present starting mark used in the Club races. The boat was secured to an East/
West dock so that its port side was “to” the dock. The little ocean going yacht was used often
and used hard, with many overnight trips and solo voyages up and down the coast. More about
that later.
After about six months at this location, an uber-zealous wannabe morals enforcer became
offended with the boat’s name and its full hull length bright red two foot high graphics
and, I’m sure with the purest of intentions to clean the basin of suggestive and unacceptable
signage, began an effort to cure this blot before the “dirty name concept” could “take root”
and flourish. They called the Home Owners, the Port of SD as well as the Coast Guard and
Homeland Security (oops, I don’t think they were around yet), and of course the Green Turtle
director. It took a while to locate the young “perp,” as the kid was a Jr. member and his
parents were not affiliated with the Club nor a resident, all the while the offending visual
carbuncle was gloriously highlighted by the summer sun and was highly visible to residents
of the Point and adjacent streets. The offending name you ask? Caution, the following word
may not be suitable for all readers. IMPULSE. That’s it, THAT was the 6 letter word that caused
an uproar here at the Cays in the late 70’s! Oh, and by the way, the kid went on to be a three-
time podium finisher of the single-handed Around Alone Race, one of the early solo races
around the world. Brad Van Liew is his name.                                    —Van Hughes

Adventure “In” The Bay
                                      by Carol Warren, Kathi Kirigin with Leslie Hastings

                                             Or. . . No Good Deed Goes Unpunished!

O
       n Sunday, February 5, at 11:00am, Holly and Alan Sweetow set out in their electric boat,
       the good ship Hollipop, with Kathi and Carol, to see the Russian oligarch’s $300 million
       yacht in National City. (A three hour tour, a three hour tour…)

At 11:30am, as we were ogling that fine example of unbridled wealth and unmitigated gall (and
not paying attention to where we were going), Hollipop came to an abrupt halt. She’d run aground
about 100 yards from the shore; the propeller had sunk in the mud, and the boat immediately
tilted to a 45 degree angle. We braced ourselves on the seats and wondered, what next?

Luckily we had cell phones, plus plenty of food and libations. Alan called the Club, but since it was
Sunday, well, you can guess. Although we offered vodka (well, technically Bloody Marys) to the
Russian vessel, no answer. The Coast Guard blew us off too (unless, of course, we feigned a
medical emergency— then they’d arrive with a big helicopter and even bigger invoice), so at
12:45pm, Kathi, in her infinite wisdom, called Van Peterson. Why? Because everyone calls Van,
right? Van (per usual) jumped into the Club skiff and took off. Unfortunately, once he got close,
the tide was racing out, the current was misbehaving, and before he knew it, the skiff had also
run aground about twenty feet ahead of us.

Van had not brought his phone (also per usual), so after we got tired of yelling to Van, Alan
slogged barefoot through the mud to confer in the skiff. The two alpha males agreed that we were
all stuck, a brilliant conclusion given the circumstances. Alan, the consummate host, trudged to
and fro all afternoon, acting as master of ceremonies. (Alan was in sales).

Leslie Hastings kept in touch with us via Kathi who had sent a photo of Van sitting alone in the
skiff, looking forlornly out on the horizon (which Leslie apparently got a huge kick out of). Holly
then called Leslie to ask her to walk their dog, Sophie, later in the afternoon, as the poor baby
would have her legs crossed by the time we returned.

Van asked us to call Allen Means who was determined to help. Coincidentally, Leslie happened to
run into Allen shortly thereafter and quickly put a care package together for Van, as the poor guy
had looked utterly pathetic sitting out in the skiff with ne’er friend, food nor fishing pole. Allen
M., accompanied by Port Captain Dave Knapp, soon arrived at the far-off waterline in a boat
borrowed from fellow Club members Richard Carvalho and Carolyn Campbell. Allen brought Van
his phone, a cigar, and two NA beers (all the important things). He offered Kathi and Carol a ride
back if they would slog across the mud to that far-off waterline. Because both were fearful of
slipping and falling, and neither wanted to leave Holly, Alan S., and Van (although Van seemed
perfectly happy now that he had the proper supplies - and it happened to be an off week for the
NFL), we said thank you and stayed with our friends.

Back on land, Leslie set off for her canine duties. She quickly learned not only how to break into
the Sweetows’ house, but also the location of all their valuables. Good dog, Sophie. To honor the
adventure currently underway, Leslie and Sophie pulled out all of Holly’s (and Allen’s) jewelry
and played “Russian Empresses" while watching Anna Karenina on Netflix (English version)
and consuming all the Sweetow’s caviar and vodka. Leslie called throughout the day and
evening, regaling us with tales of the NON-rescue attempts being undertaken and pointing out
which of our fellow Club members were placing bets on whether we would make it home before
the following Tuesday.

As we waited for high tide to return
sometime around 10:00pm, we watched
the sunset. Darkness set in and it began to
get cold, wet and damp. Fortunately, we
had plenty of blankets and Alan took one
to Van—who, he finally realized, had been
slowly turning an odd shade of gray-blue
—while determining that Hollipop was on
a shoal and thus might have difficulty
popping up when the tide came in.

Two candles kept Hollipop lit up and
cheerful while we all watched the tide
crawl in and Van sit in the dark by
himself. When the tide finally reached us,
Hollipop jerked semi-upright, sending the
three women bashing into the table. But
the prop remained buried.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, as Leslie
watched the sky darken and the
temperature drop, she finally called Allen Means, catching him about three minutes before he
dropped off into a gentle, warm, (and apparently, at least semi-naked) slumber. Allen rallied
and sped off once again. By 8:30pm, Van’s skiff was afloat, but he chose to stay rather than
leave for the Club in case Hollipop had been damaged.

Allen M. arrived shortly thereafter and took Kathi and Carol off the beached Duffy. He then
worked his magic and before we knew it, he’d pulled the front of the boat out of the mud and
towed it until Alan S. could start Hollipop and get back on his own.

The three vessels caravanned back to shore: Van, half-frozen to the seat of the skiff, the
Sweetows, warm and happy in Hollipop, and Allen M. with us, a little chilled but no worse for
wear. Everyone arrived home around 9:30pm. Allen Means is our hero, as are Van and Leslie.

And that Russian vessel? Well, “Beware the Tides of March.”

                       with the C-Gulls!
                    The February 1st luncheon’s theme of Getting to Know
                    You revealed some of the most outrageous things our
     ladies have experienced. Stories were told of moving to Italy upon
     graduation from high school, zip-lining in Costa Rica, getting
     married, and driving across the USA in a minibus. Your C-Gulls have
     had amazing adventures. Another big surprise was the question
     “have you ever been to a nude beach?” Well, four ladies at a table
     for 6 had attended — some several times — you just never know
     what you’re going to find out about your table mates!
     Thank you Carolyn Carswell, Carmen Loheed, Deb Goelz, and Kathy Schreiber for putting this
     event together, and in case you were wondering about the cool centerpieces, Kathy did the
     clip art on the white bottles for our table decorations. Nice job!
     More fun facts: C-Gulls membership is at 105, a record for us this soon into the New Year.
     Thanks to everyone who renewed and a warm welcome to our new members, as you bring a
     fresh perspective to our membership. For those of you reading this who are not yet members,
     I ask, why not? As you look around the Club, much of everything you see, from the bar chairs,
     the patio seating areas, and the ice cream freezer, to the outside bar is funded by C-Gulls
     contributions, primarily generated from Regalia sales. We know you would want to be a part
     of this key group and help our Club with future projects. Please contact First Mate Linda
     Hayes for an application or for more information.
     As you are reading this, a bus load of happy gamblers and diners are headed to the Jamul
     Casino for a day of chance, fun, food, and more. Thank you, Carmen and Deb, for herding the
     cats onto the Jamul Casino bus. More on this will follow in the next Navigator, as I will
     announce any major winners and tales from the bus ride as our adventures continue.
     Moving forward, it’s time to get ready for the April 5th luncheon, which is also known as the
     Annual Commodore’s Luncheon. Our Cruise Directors Carmen Loheed and Deb Goelz have
     arranged five speakers: the 2023 Commodore Dave Murree, the 2002 Commodore M.K.
     McQuoid, the 2006 Commodore Bernice Hunt, the 2011 Commodore Mary Youngman, and the
     2016 Commodore Dianna Durgin. Please sign up now to hear from this amazing group about
     what they believe to be the “stuff” Commodores are made of. Please see the flyer for more
     information about this event. Your check for $30 payable to C-Gulls dropped off in our box is
     your reservation. Please make sure you include your choice of chicken, shrimp or veggie
     option on your check. See you there!

     Everything an Irish Lass Would
     Cherish and More!

     M
                   arch winds, April showers…
                   and hopefully some warmer
                   weather coming our way!

     For this month, in between winter and
     spring, we have many options. For
     instance, we carry our logo-ed women’s
     and men’s polo shirts—red, white and
     blue— in both short and long sleeves.
     They are great for the golf course, or on
     a sailboat, Duffy or just around the Club!

     For the ladies, Slimsation black, denim
     and navy pants and capris go with these
     polos or with our new denim shirts in
     either Tencel (made from bamboo) or
     sporting a nautical white anchor
     pattern.

     For the men, we have Tommy Bahama
     full and half-zip tops for boating and
     clubbing, and short and long-sleeved
     Hook and Tackle shirts for fishing. If you
     are lucky enough to be going on a cruise, tropical shirts are
     just the ticket.

     In March—as in every other month—we are celebrating our Volunteer
     Sales Team.

     We are looking forward to Regalia’s Volunteer Sales Meeting on
     Wednesday, March 8th, at 4 p.m. in the CCYC Boardroom. We hold
     these meetings three or four times a year to celebrate and congratulate
     our forty volunteer salesladies. Your Regalia Team would
     not be successful without these wonderful volunteers—and also, of course, our equally wonderful
     customers.

     Volunteer Sales Team members get a 20% discount on one item for each night they sell, so please
     consider joining our team!

                           d'Azur and Italy's Costa Bella - by David Shalleck
                           From his cooking beginnings in some of New York and San Francisco’s best
                           restaurants, David Shalleck embarks upon a European culinary odyssey through
                           a series of intense chef internships in Provence and throughout Italy. Four
                           years later, debating whether he should pursue something more permanent
                           stateside, a rare opportunity presents itself to become the chef on board Serenity,
                           the classic sailing yacht owned by one of Italy’s most prominent couples.

                           The Wave - Susan Casey
                           In her astonishing new book, Susan Casey captures colossal, ship-swallowing
                           waves, and the surfers and scientists who seek them out. For legendary surfer
                           Laird Hamilton, hundred foot waves represent the ultimate challenge. As
                           Susan Casey travels the globe, hunting these monsters of the ocean with
                           Hamilton’s crew, she witnesses first-hand the life or death stakes, the glory,
                           and the mystery of impossibly mammoth waves. Yet for the scientists who
                           study them, these waves represent something truly scary brewing in the
                           planet’s waters.

 Spicy Ahi Tuna Wonton Nachos                                                                 Boat Appétit
 Driving South from Napa this past December on coastal route 101, we had                        Floating Chef
 lunch in Avila Beach in a great little restaurant: The Cape Cod Eatery. The Ahi                Carole Jensen
 Tuna Wonton Nachos (and everything else we ordered) were so outstanding
 that we were tempted to spend the night so that we could eat there again the
 next day.
 What do Spicy Ahi Tuna Wonton Nachos taste like? Well, the ahi tuna, creamy
 avocado, rich spicy mayo, and fresh peppers and herbs make the perfect
 combination of flavors which are then stacked on top of a golden crunchy
 wonton chip. This recipe is quick and easy and I have reinvented it several
 times since. A little bit of prep ahead and it’s a very happy appetizer!

 Ingredients:
 Wonton Chips: 20 wonton wrappers, cut in half diagonally
 I deep fry in canola oil. Heat oil to 350º and don’t leave its side! Test oil by
 cutting a small piece of the wrapper and placing in oil- it will rise to the surface
 and sizzle when ready. I add about 6 wrappers at a time and let them rise to the
 surface. Remove with a slotted spoon onto a paper towel. Quickly do the next
 batch.
 Do not let the oil smoke! If you have a deep fryer, better. Eric almost had a heart attack
 when he saw me make these on the boat- but I’m a pro!
 Otherwise: Place wonton chips on parchment paper and spray well with nonstick
 oil and salt. Bake at 350º for about 10 minutes until golden brown.
 Wrappers can be made ahead (deep fry or bake) and stored in zip lock baggie for a
 few days.

 Nachos:
 ‣   ½ lb. sushi grade tuna
 ‣   ½ cup Japanese Wasabi mayo – This homemade version of wasabi mayonnaise is made by simply whisking
     wasabi paste into kewpie mayonnaise. If you don’t like wasabi, simply omit and use kewpie mayo on its own
     and maybe a little kick of sriracha
 ‣   ¼ cup soy sauce
 ‣   1 avocado cubed.
 ‣   Cilantro for garnish- let guests add this on their own. What is up with so many people anti-cilantro? LOL my
     ex-mother-in-law reminded me every time I made dinner for her!
 ‣   Furikake- This Japanese condiment is umami good!
 ‣   Thinly sliced green onion- not too much
 ‣   ½ jalepeno seeded and sliced very thinly

 Directions:
 1. Prep sushi grade tuna by cutting into cubes and marinate in ¼ cup soy sauce
 2. Cube one avocado
 3. Layer the nachos starting with the wonton chips, followed by some tuna, the avocado and drizzle of spicy mayo
 4. Garnish with fresh cilantro,½ jalapeno sliced very thinly, ½ green onion and of course the
    Furikake (sometimes I shake the wonton wrappers once deep fried in the Furikake first)

 Note: if you do not find sushi grade tuna, you can buy good tuna and simply sear/coat in sesame.
