CYC's future and the port ~ As many of you know, we lease our land from the
San Diego Port Authority. In addition, we sublease additional space that
covers our bocce ball court and extended grass area. These leases expire in
2034, by which time we will have to negotiate a new lease with the port. Any new lease
agreement will need to be compliant with the Port's Master Development Plan. The
negotiation is expected to take several years and has many moving parts.
This year's Board of Directors is seeking volunteers to join a Lease
Negotiation Committee. The Committee will be responsible to the
Board for negotiating a new lease pending final review by the
Financial Advisory Committee and Approval by the Board. Members
appointed to the committee will be asked to become familiar with our
current lease, the Port's Master Development Plan and future lease
requirements, as determined by the Board of Directors. Members will
be expected to remain on the committee to provide continuity
during the multi-year negotiations. If you are interested in
being considered for this committee, please let me know. I
cannot stress enough how important it will be for the future
of CCYC to negotiate a favorable new lease.
Thank you for considering and I look forward to seeing
everyone at the club!

T
here was a lot of excitement at the club last month as we began to re-open for outdoor
dining and events. The Super Bowl party was a huge success with over 81 members
sitting outside all socially distancing. Everyone enjoyed the game, speciality drinks,
and food. Lilly and our kitchen did another great job! We sold 41 Party Platters and an
additional 34 individual item orders were picked up or delivered to our members in the Cays.
Following the Super Bowl, we quickly turned our attention to Valentines Day. We sold out our
available tables outside and served over 85 members, both at the club and takeout or delivery
in the Cays.
The new heaters have been installed and as I write this article new windbreakers are being
prepared to further protect our patio and outside bar area from inclement weather. We’ve
added a new TV cart to make viewing of the outdoor TV even better.
Both of these events would not have been as successful without so many of our members
participating. Thank you.
As we re-open, I thought now would be a good time to address two issues:
Reservations: We were able to have the two very successful events in February, as well as
continue service during our regular club hours thanks to our members who make
reservations. Making a reservation by phone or online has never been easier and it helps our
kitchen and serving staff in so many ways. We are able to better prepare and manage our food
and staff needs with advance notice. This enables us to reduce costs or increase staff as
needed to provide better service. This also helps you get the table you want and will
reduce your wait when you come into the club during a busy time. Please continue
to make reservations even for lunch or brunch on the weekends. That will go a
long way to help us better manage our operations.
Parking: I am working closely with our Port Captain to begin a process to
monitor and enforce parking in our small lot. As a reminder, members are
allowed one car per family parked in the lot at one time. All vehicles must
have current DMV registration and be operational as well as be registered
with CCYC and display the sticker on the windshield. Since we have limited
parking for members visiting the club, it is important that marina tenants
and visiting guests park on the street whenever possible. Caribe Cays
North does not have the limits on parking that exist in the rest of the Cays
or Coronado so there is no limit to how long you can leave your car
parked there.
Watch for announcements about music on the patio with our very
own Brian Geoltz as well as other events we’re planning as we
continue to re-open the club.

oon we will start to see warmer weather and calmer seas allowing us to kick off the
cruising season in earnest. As the vaccines continue to roll out it will help us to get back
to the normal cruising and rafting up we have always enjoyed. In the meantime, you
should head out with your “bubble” to one of the many anchorages we are so fortunate to
have in the local area.
As I said last month if you plan on joining us for the May 21st LaPlaya raft up, please make
sure you get your individual permits ASAP for the trip. It costs nothing to reserve the spot
and you can cancel or give it to a fellow club member if your plans change. In addition, if you
are planning to arrive early for July 4th, please get your individual permit. As of now, we are
down to 7 slots left for both events.

There is still no word on using our reciprocal privileges with the other local Yacht Clubs, but I
will let you know as soon as I hear that they are welcoming other clubs.

Greetings CCYC!
I would like to begin by welcoming two new Marina tenants: First, Rear Commodore Sue Steven
and Craig Blasingame to D6 with their 2006 Lear 20 electric boat, and second, Dave and Marissa
Bower to D3 with their 2005 39’ Beneteau sailboat. Please stop by to say hello.
During our annual boat inspections, I asked marina tenants if they would like an additional free US
Coast Guard inspection of their vessels. The answer was a resounding YES! I have contacted Bob
and Diana Simon with the US Coast Guard Auxiliary to give me a COVID-friendly time frame in
which to conduct an inspection blitz. To date, we are looking to schedule these inspections toward
the end of May, 2021. If you are interested in having one of these inspections, please review the
form below, outlining the areas to be addressed. If your vessel passes the USCG inspection, you will
receive a Vessel Safety Decal for your boat.
In addition, I will be working with Diana Simon to present a four hour seminar to CCYC members
entitled Total in Command. The course is designed for boaters of all levels to enhance your boat
handling skills. I will provide the date and time when I have them secured.
FYI- we can now Dock and Dine! Please call the restaurant with your dining reservation and
contact me for Guest Dock availability before your arrival.
See you on the water! – Van Peterson

The America’s Cup has turned out to be a disaster for America with the
capsizing of the New York Yacht Club’s American Magic and the straight
losses to the Italians in the semi-finals of the PRADA Cup. The PRADA Cup
selects the Challenger to race against New Zealand in the America’s Cup
Finals in March. At the time of this writing, the Italian boat has beaten the
British boat in four straight races, with three more needed to win the
PRADA. The America’s Cup races between the PRADA Cup winner
and New Zealand are scheduled for March 6-15. Italy’s Luna
Rossa boat wins the PRADA Cup and will challenge New Zealand
in the America’s Cut beginning on March 6.

Hello Mates!
O
n Sunday February 21st, an athletic group of CCYC human ‘water bugs’ ventured over to the
basin south of Chula Vista Marina to hover quietly and watch the resident turtles surface to
check us out!
Over 30 Members participated in kayaks, paddle boats and row boats for this event. We sought out a
weekend morning low tide and weren’t disappointed.
The weather was perfect with glass on the way over and
a light breeze on the way home.
We only saw 1 turtle, but given the size of our flotilla, we
may have rightly given them a reason to be shy!
Many thanks to Jerry, Mel, Van and Eric who were the
safety team in 3 skiffs, shepherding the crowd over and
back.
Check out more photos on page 20!
FOR MARCH, we have scheduled another CCYC Golf Tournament at Coronado
Golf Course. We had a waitlist for this fun event in January, so we are excited to
offer it again.
The format will be Best Ball Scramble again, except that we will ask you to
register as a twosome. Then we will pair up twosomes by pulling names from a
hat to create our foursomes for the event. Should be lots of fun and a chance to
meet a member or two you didn’t know. Prizes of course!
The date is yet to be confirmed by the course, but we anticipate it will be held on
Thursday, March 25th, between 10am and noon.
Watch for the flyer that will be sent out, confirming the date and telling you how
to register your twosome. Cost will be $18 per person for registration. Your greens
fee and any cart rental will be paid directly to the course on the day of the event.
FOR APRIL, we will be hosting a scavenger hunt for electric boats and small boats.
It will take place on the waters of the Cays. Prizes of course!!
Looking forward to seeing you all soon!

Where is our Bosun’s Locker?
Our Bosun’s Locker is in the Burgee Lounge and
is the center of Regalia Sales activities. In the

In this issue, please note the picture of
merchandise hanging in The Bosun’s Locker
along with the beautifully hand carved Bosun’s
Locker sign. This sign was made by CCYC member
Gary Adalian when the C-Gulls had the locker
designed and built. We are very grateful for the
artistry, thought and many hours of work that
went into this incredible addition to our Bosun’s

Irish Blessing:
“May your joys be as deep as the oceans, Your troubles as
light as its foam, and may you find sweet peace of mind
Wherever you may roam”
O
ne of the many blessings we enjoy at the CCYC is making new friends. In time,
these new friends become a very important part of our families. In a small
community such as ours, we are bound to get to know each other better, learn
that we have a tremendous support system and have friends who we can laugh, eat
and drink with. I am dedicating this column not to just the ‘luck’ of the Irish, but to the
luck of having made such true and wonderful new friends at the Coronado Cays Yacht
Club. I remember when Alan Sweetow vetted Eric and I, he shared the same
sentiment… what we did not know, was how lucky we would become. His kind words
ring true for us and so this one is for all of you who have made Eric and I feel so much
at home. You know who you are, and we look forward to making many more such
friends.

Vegetarian Lobster Rolls:
https://youtu.be/uV-UyLWXkCA
Speaking of family: The above video was made by my
youngest son, Alexander Rosen. He is a chef and a Sommelier
living in Napa, Ca., with his sweet wife Sarah, who is a pastry
chef. The apple didn't fall far from the tree with this one! After
you watch the video, remember to like, share and subscribe.
Nutty and slightly musky, hearts of palm is a white vegetable that comes from the center
of a specific variety of palm trees. They are actually the stem tips harvested from the
growing palm tree. It’s prized for its culinary versatility, is high in Vitamin C, packed with
fiber, vitamin B6, calcium, zinc and very low in calories. They make a great addition to
salads, or in this case, a stand in for imitation lobster.
Of course, if you want to substitute fresh lobster- just remember to invite me over too!THE NAVIGATOR 15
This is the recipe for the heart of palm filling only. The video has a full recipe for the rolls too.
If you do not want to bother making the rolls, I would suggest using Brioche buns and
painting them with the melted garlic butter recipe. Toast them lightly before adding the
filling . Note about roll substitution: You need not just a good roll, but an
outstanding roll…This is essential to the recipe!
Ingredients:
✴ One can drained hearts of Palm- Slice each heart lengthwise and then into bit sized chunks
✴ ½ cup real Mayonnaise
✴ 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
✴ 1 tsp smoked Hungarian Paprika or other
✴ ½ tsp cayenne pepper
✴ Juice of one small lemon- no seeds
✴ One stalk of celery- finely diced
✴ Small bunch of chopped dry parsley
✴ Smaller bunch of chopped dill
✴ 4 tbsp chopped chives- save half for garnish
✴ Good quality salt like Maldon or Truffle or other- texture is key - so something flakey
Garlic butter recipe
✴ 4 cloves of well chopped garlic
✴ 3 tbsp salted sweet butter
Directions:
1. Toss the hearts of palm, celery, mayo, dijon and lemon juice together.
2. Add half of the chives and mix until just incorporated well.
3. Melt butter and add chopped garlic and bring to barely a simmer or until just
fragrant.
4. Paint each bun with the prepared garlic butter and very lightly toast until barely
golden. Speaking of how to slice the bun, I slice mine on the top, not the side.
5. Line each toasted bun with some butter lettuce.
6. Add filling, sprinkle with Paprika, salt and more chives.

MARCH SELECTION
The Boundless Sea - by David Abulafia
Far more than merely another history of exploration, The Boundless Sea shows how
maritime networks gradually formed a continuum of interaction and interconnection.
Working chronologically, Abulafia moves from the earliest forays of peoples taking
hand-hewn canoes into uncharted waters, to the routes taken daily by supertankers
in the thousands. History on the grandest scale and scope, written with passion and
precision, this is a project few could have undertaken. Abulafia, whom The Atlantic
calls "superb writer with a gift for lucid compression and an eye for the telling detail,"
proves again why he ranks as one of the world's greatest storytellers.
APRIL SELECTION
Moxie: The American Challenge - by Philip S. Weld
Chronicles Feld's efforts to win the Observer Singlehanded Transatlantic Race,
from his first try, when he found himself becalmed in the Azores, through his
capsize and rescue, to his ultimate victory in 1980.

Come on Shore and We Will Kill and Eat You All -
by Christina Thompson
Come on Shore and We Will Kill and Eat You All is the story of the cultural collision
between Westerners and Maoris, told partly as a history of the complex and violent

Christina Thompson's unlikely marriage to a Maori man.

Poker Pitch
The rowdy CCYC poker crowd is off to a raucous start to the 2021
Here are the current top 10
“season” & participation is at an all-time high. With no clear path
to resuming Monday night poker at the club in sight, the internet in points earned (5 points
warriors are forging ahead with their passion for cards unabated by for 1st, 3 points for 2nd & 2
the rigors of person-to-person contact.
In the early going for the 2021 season, the weekly schedule of CCYC
tournaments at PokerStars.net has been unchanged from 2020 &
the competition has been quite vigorous. Mondays & Wednesdays
are reserved for traditional Texas Hold ‘Em while Thursdays & Jack Shirey – 38 points
Saturdays continue to be Omaha Hi-Lo. So far 11 players have (only 4x winner so far)
already won at least one tournament in 2021 and we haven’t even
reached the halfway point of the 2nd month which indicates that Buzz Hattersley – 34
the competition is as robust as ever & anyone can win any night. We
keep detailed statistics of our merry little band and in the early Gayle Frank – 32
going it is clear that no one will be running away with the points
title any time soon. Marty Mischel – 31
These strange times have also awoken the inner Longfellow of a Jonathan Gold – 27
few of our players who have been inspired to share their rapier wits
& boundless humor in the form of poetry. One such master of prose Jon Sinton – 20
is Dr. Jonathan Gold who graced the poker clan with a hilarious
poem, roasting us all with a cornucopia of memorable inside jokes Ken Mischel – 16
that wouldn’t make much sense to the average reader. If you would
like to venture into the mind of this maniac magician I strongly Don Smith – 15
suggest checking out his YouTube channel (https://
www.youtube.com/channel/UC5aTI8FTXQtzPwgXS4q9AeA/ Andy Garcia – 14
featured) where he does some amazing magic with panache & a
unique humor that you won’t want to miss. Ed Noonan – 14
If you are interested in joining our motley crew online, everyone is
invited & we’d love to see your virtual face. It’s a great way to hone
your poker skills & scratch that competitive itch while still
maintaining a safe distance from other human beings. If you are
interested, please contact me at mawam01@msn.com or Buzz Expect this list to change
Hattersley at buzzhatt@san.rr.com. We can’t wait to resume every week as the season
Monday nights at CCYC but until then we will forge ahead with wears on, but congrats to
some wholesome online competition. See you at the virtual tables! all on their success up to
this point.
