A-designated boat driver makes

The Designated Driver concept has gained
widespread public acceptance among automobile
drivers, but many boat drivers still continue to take the
helm under the influence of alcohol.
Boating is a national pastime enjoyed by more than
70-million Americans on close to 20 million boats on
our nation's waterways. Alcohol is involved in at least
60 percent of all boating accidents and in 50 percent of
all drownings.
Only one-third the amount of alcohol that makes a
person legally too drunk to drive on the road is enough

Some sobering boating statistics:
* Alcohol is a contributing factor in at least half of all
boating fatalities and is involved in at least 60 percent
of all boating accidents.
* Only one-third the amount of alcohol that makes a
person legally too drunk to drive on the road is enough
to rob a boat driver of his critical judgment on the
water.
* In 1989, 90 percent of boating accident deaths were
drowning victims.
* Drownings are the second leading cause of accidental
death in the U.S. for people under age 44, and the
third leading cause for all ages.
* Three-fourths of those victims were in boats less than
17 feet long.
* Most drownings occur only 10 to 30 feet from safety.
* Three out of four drowning victims were not
wearing their life jackets.
* Two-thirds of all boating fatalities are caused by
capsizing and falling overboard.
* Three times out of four, the accident is the fault of the
boat operator.
* Fewer than 20 percent of the boat operators involved
in accidents have taken a boating course taught by the
U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary, the U.S. Power
Squadrons, American Red Cross, or their state.
(These facts are from U.S. Coast Guard boating
accident statistics for 1989, and are based on fatal
accidents nearly all of which are reported.)

to rob the boat driver of his critical judgment on the
water.
Most people think boating is a relaxing activity,
but it is actually stressful to the body. The boat's
vibration, noise and motion, combined with sun, wind
and glare, cause boating fatigue. Studies show that the
combination of alcohol and boating fatigue
dramatically reduced the boat driver's judgment,
coordination, stability and ability to react a
dangerous combination!
High-tech emergency devices
credited in sea rescue
CLEARWATER Three fishermen whose boat
capsized in the Gulf of Mexico say they owe their lives
to a high-tech emergency device that bounced a signal
off a passing satellite, leading rescuers to their exact
location.
"There was nobody else around. We couldn't call
on radio for help," said Dennis Canfield, 21. "We
wouldn't have been saved if we didn't have this."
Coast Guard rescuers plucked the men from the
water May 9 about two hours after their 42-foot
Patricia Ann went down about 110 miles northwest of
Clearwater.
The device an emergency position- indicating
radio beacon, or EPIRB is a little more than a foot
long and encased in yellow plastic. It's attached to the
top of the boat and breaks free when the vessel sinks.
Within minutes of the sinking, the EPIRB sent a
radio signal to a satellite, which sent the signal to the
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in
Maryland.
The signal gave NOAA the location, name and
owner of the disabled vessel. The staff called Miami,
the nearest rescue coordination center, and the Coast
Guard called its Clearwater station.
Just 45 minutes after a helicopter was dispatched,
Canfield and David Lolley, 27, both of Crystal River,
and Preston Samples, 23, of Dunnellon were found
clinging to floating debris. None of the men were
injured after a wave swamped their boat.
"The EPIRB was the only reason the Coast Guard
was alerted," said Petty Officer Joe Dye in Miami.
Coast Guard officials encourage the use of EPIRBs
and note they are required on all commercial fishing
vessels.
When the rescued fishermen stepped off the
helicopter, still wrapped in blankets, they smiled and
thanked God they were alive.
"We were very fortunate," Canfield said.

Editor's Log

Broward County's Manatee Protection Plan
taskforce is working towards an outline that will
satisfy state bureaucrats in Tallahassee and lift a marina
construction and construction moratorium imposed on
that county by former Governor Martinez. Currently,
under the freeze all marina construction must conform
with a one boat slip per one-hundred feet standard.
Some manatee activists want to make that standard
permanent. Marine industry leaders would like to see
the ban lifted to spur on a weak boating economy.
They maintain that the New River basin and Dania Cut-
off Canal are already highly developed and more
dockage would have little impact on the manatee
population. A compromise may be in the works
affecting only two Broward marine facilities adjacent
to FPL plants' warm water outlets: one on the South
Fork New River near Secret Woods Park and another
in Port Everglades. See the schedule of upcoming
taskforce hearings elsewhere in this edition. Dade and
Palm Beach counties are drafting similar plans.

The City of Fort Lauderdale concerned about a silt
buildup in the'New River is seeking state grants to
help fund a $2-million- dredging project. The
massive operation cutting a 10-foot-deep channel in the
river would keep boat-repair business from sailing to
deeper ports, marine industry people say. Most blame
the silt on the Interstate 95 bridge construction.
Pompano Beach and Wilton Manors recently got

help from Broward County in the form of funding for
dredging programs in their canals.
Powerboat racing pioneer and former mayor of
Hacienda Village, Red Crise died May 2 after
suffering a stroke. The colorful mayor presided over a
tiny waterfront municipality nestled between the
North New River Canal and the intersection of State
Roads 84 and 7 (US 441) which was infamous as a
speed trap. Twenty-seven traffic cops (one for every
five residents of the village) wrote nearly 600 tickets a
month in the early 1980's until Hacienda Village
merged with Davie in 1984'
"Plumber, meter reader, there's nobody there but
me 24 hours a day," said Crise in 1983.

With $36,000 state grant, Broward County will
begin lifting derelict boat hulls out of the county's
canal and rivers during the summer. 37 wrecks are
slated for removal over the next several months.

Too much noise, speed and wake on ICW

Editor's note: The following is an open letter to the
Fort Lauderdale Marine Advisory Board.

Board Members:
We thank you for allowing us, as well as many
other residents, to speak at the April 4, 1991,
Advisory Board Meeting.
The general tone of that meeting was similar to:
many other meetings. .Those who spoke:-
overwhelmingly protested excessive noise, speed,, and
wake on the Intracoastal, Waterway. Speakers'
repeatedly complained not only about the inadequacy
of present regulations but also of the lack of
enforcement of current laws on the books by the Ft.
Lauderdale Police Department, the Sheriffs Office, as
well as other enforcement agencies.
While 90 percent of the boating was
complimented, the complaints most heard were against
the 5 percent of cigarette-type ocean racers and muscle
boats with high horsepower that operate at high speeds
making tremendous noise. Since some were
manufactured for ocean racing, they have little or no
muffling devices (as required by law) and seem to
operate with immunity from law enforcement on the
Intracoastal Waterway.
It was unfortunate when the main thrust of the
meeting was diverted by references to "cut outs" (like
Model-T Fords) which is not the situation. The
offending boats do not have cut outs the problem is
they do not have adequate mufflers and they are
operated without regard for the welfare of the general
public. The absence of good judgment on the part of
some high performance boaters jeopardizes the peace
and welfare of thousands of people who live along the
Intracoastal.
Although the resolution to increase the size of the
Marine Patrol force to 28 people is greatly appreciated,
it may be well-intentioned but symbolic. Better
enforcement of noise and speed laws against offending
boaters by the existing force would be helpful.
We have presented pictures and a list of names of
the offending boats to the Ft. Lauderdale Police Dept.
and met with the sheriff. The chief of police, who is
the designated enforcement officer, spoke at length art
the April 4th meeting, but avoided some of the mainr
issues, such as: why are the go-fast, noisy boats
allowed to operate almost immune from existing noisec-
and speed laws?
Also contributing to the'problem seems to be the
unresponsiveness of the city manager who has not
responded to a request made on March 15, 1991,
under the Freedom of Information Act about
enforcement. The City of Pompano properly
responded to a similar request.
There have been numerous news articles and
letters of protest in the news media. Over 4,000
families are represented in organizations and on
petitions seeking effective enforcement. The condition
received national attention April 15, 1991, on TV's
"Expose" program when Tom Brokaw covered.the
connection between murdered Dan Aranow, high
speed powerboats, drug trafficking, crime-laundered
money and police connections.
As one example, on Sunday, April 14, 1991, at
9:00 a.m. the Florida Marine Patrol passed NE 34th
Street when the Intracoastal was flat, quiet and not a
boat in sight. But at 11:10 a.m. two ocean racers -
running neck and neck at NE 36th Street raced off
toward Commercial Blvd. in a roar like a B-29, On the
same day there were many violations in the afternoon
and evening when high-performance boats (without
mufflers) turned the area into a speedway between NE
34th Street and Commercial Blvd. when there was no
police activity in evidence. One boat jumping waves
came entirely out of the water. At 6:00 p.m. after the
bridge opened, boats were eight wide in a no-wake
zone, and a noisy speeding boat passed them all near

the seawall. Hundreds of families were disturbed, but
there was no enforcement in evidence.
Reasonable people would not request a no wake
idle speed regulation on the entire length of the
Intracoastal in Broward County. However, a 15-mile-
per-hour speed limit in such areas as between NE 35th
Street and Commercial Blvd. as well as north of Coral
rRidge Yacht Club would do much to improve
problems. This speed limit with the existing 15-inch
wake regulation might be an acceptable compromise to
replace the current 30-mile-per-hour speed limit in
several areas.
We need a few officers who really want to enforce
the noise and speed laws, willing to give out tickets,
working on Friday, Saturday and Sunday afternoons
and evenings between NE 35th Street and Commercial
Blvd. and north of the Coral Ridge Yacht Club, where
currently there is little enforcement.
A big question that begs an answer is why are the
high-powered boats (5 percent) allowed to break
current speed and noise laws with little or no police
enforcement?
Again we thank you, the Marine Advisory Board,
for your help and your cooperation, and ask that you
do what you can to improve the situation.

Luxury tax must go

To the Editor:
The luxury tax is one of the worst conceived taxes
of our time. The National Marine Manufacturers
Association estimates that 8,000 workers will lose
their jobs this year as a result of this tax. Those
workers paid in more than $30 million in Federal
Income Tax last year. The Joint Committee on
Taxation of the United States Congress estimated that
the luxury tax on boat sales will only generate $3
million in 1991. Yet, it has been estimated that
business and the IRS will spend anywhere between $8
and $9 million to collect this measly sum. Now if this
isn't bad enough, there has been recent talk about
transferring the luxury tax from new boats to used.
The effect of this tax on the yacht industry will be
devastating if it is not repealed. Begin a letter campaign
to our legislators for the repeal of this excise tax.
Our association has been in contact with the other
major marine industry associations in an effort to work
together for the common goal of saving jobs .
maybe even our industry.
We need everyone to become involved in this
effort.

Ask Big Al

Dear Al -
My boat always pulls to the left (port). I've
adjusted my rudder and I've checked out my throttles
and I have to use more power on my port engine to
counteract that swing when I'm underway. Every once
in awhile I don't have it and that is what puzzles me.
Can you give me a clue for what to look for?
Howard
Dear Howard -
Sometimes the pulling is caused by a water or fuel
tank on the side of the boat that is full or empty making
the boat swing to that side or the other. A trim tab out
of adjustment down on one side will pull the boat over
and cause it to pull to one side. You can actually steer
your boat with trim tabs in an emergency.
I would check them first for fluid or a malfunction.
Al

Dear Al-
While out the other day I docked my boat and went
in for lunch. When I came out boat would not start.
Battery was strong but key would not tur motor over.
Horn and lights were dead, cables were tight but no
go. Cleaned and tightened cables. No use. Finally
used cables to jump battery and got started.
What could of went wrong?
Ted
Dear Ted -
Tight cables does not mean good contact at the
motor block or starter solinoid. I would take off and
clean all cable ends and reinstall, and put a little lube
on them to prevent corrosion. Next, I would check the
live lead to the switch and starter for looseness or
corrosion and I would also check my battery swing-
over switch for wear or looseness.
You will find a bad lead or a loose wire in the
"circuit, I'm sure.

Dear Al -
I've got a great running outboard that hea
under high speed. I throttle down and she cool
some, but always runs hot. Brought it in to outt
shop and installed new pump and impellor and
and same trouble cropped up.
Lots of theories and advice but don't want
for a bundle. What's your opinion?
Dear Carl -
Overheating is mostly caused by insufficient
flow to cool engine down at high speed. Is ,
spurting out of outlet? If it steams or runs ver
after it cools down check plugs for water bea(
them. Bad gaskets can cause this.
You say it runs great so the timing must be ri
really think it could be in your thermostat I
defective and restricting your water flow.

don't know if the shaft is bent or the strut that holds the
ts up cutlass bearing is bent. All this can contribute to loss
Is off of power and vibration back to the engine, boat and
board mounts. I would remove and repair your prop and

Dear Al -
I have a sailboat with a small inboard that takes up
a lot of room which I could use as I try to live aboard
it. I heard about a saildrive that is installed in the hull
that rests into the water. Also I can put an outboard on
the stem as the boat is not that big.
What would you advise?
Jim
Dear Jim -
With a boat your size I would go outboard as the
installation is simple. The bracket and controls are not
that expensive and in case of repairs you can pull the
outboard instead of the boat to get at the drive.
I've seen many sailboats moving along very well
with a small outboard. The engine room can then be
used for storage, etc.
Al

Dear Al -
I hit something while coming up the Intracoastal
the other day. When I got home to my dock I went
under my boat to check for damage. I found one blade
of my prop with a piece out of it. Not much, but I
wondered if I could cause any damage by using the
boat right now?
Chick
Dear Chick-
Many things happen when a propeller is struck.
The blades can be sent out of true. The chunk that is
broken out puts the prop out of balance. Also, you

Broward News

Riverwalk consultant's contract with newspaper questioned

By M.G. Swift
Waterfront News staff

FORT LAUDERDALE A private consulting firm
hired by the city is also under contract with the Fort
Lauderdale News/Sun Sentinel, which owns property
instrumental in the development of Riverwalk, a multi-
million dollar city project.
Ed Stone & Associates, a Fort Lauderdale-based
planning and architectural landscape consulting firm
hired by the city in 1986, recently advised the city to
vacate North New River Dr., located between the
newspaper's property and the New River.
Such advice could be a conflict of interest because
of the Sentinel's association with Ed Stone, city
officials fear.

"Our board was never made aware of this conflict
during the many presentations made," Fort Lauderdale
Marine Advisory Board Chairman Ame Carlson wrote
in a letter to City Manager George Hanbury.
"Had such a conflict been advised I am quite sure
that many board members would have reached
different conclusions on various matters. Not least of
these would be the vacation of the North New River
Drive," concluded Carlson.
Ed Stone's advice lead to the elimination of 24
dock-side parking spaces for city-owned boat slips
located between Bubier Park and the Third Avenue
bridge. In a compromise drafted by Ed Stone, nine
parking spaces adjacent to a cul-de-sac on Southeast
First Avenue on the north bank of the New River were
carved out of the park.

Ed Stone is under contract with the Chicago
Tribune Company, parent firm of the News and Sun-
Sentinel, confirmed C. Douglas Coolman, a principal
of the consulting firm.
But Stone was not yet retained by the newspaper
when it won the bid to design the city's linear park
along the banks of the New River in downtown Fort
Lauderdale.
"Once Stone was approached by the Tribune
Company to provide services, we contacted the city for
permission," Coolman said. "After discussion with the
Riverwalk project office, we mutually felt that there
was no conflict of interest."
"The appearance of impropriety" exists in the
association, Carlson said at the May 2 Fort Lauderdale
Marine Advisory Board meeting.
"In no way do we feel we have ever compromised
our role as the city's Riverwalk consultant," Coolman
said in a letter to Riverwalk Director William
Johnson.
To head off potential conflicts, the Marine
Advisory Board unanimously voted to advise the City
Commission to require "full on-going disclosure" from
city-hired consultants and contractors. Currently,
disclosure is only required at the time of bidding on a
city contract.
The Commission must approve the proposal before

"We need reaffirmation (that Ft. Lauderdale wants

become the maritime residential capital of the world
instead of marine yachting capital, we need to know
that, too," said John Corrough.
City manager George Hanbury introduced John
Corrough, who began the workshop with a slide
presentation on local and global marine uses, as a
follow-up to the previous afternoon's waterway tour.
Corrough is a University of Michigan-trained architect
who worked his way through school by delivering
boats from the midwest to Ft. Lauderdale 30 years
ago.
The first slides illustrated a variety of marine uses
in Ft. Lauderdale: "pocket marinas," i.e. cut-ins
behind New River homes with room for two or more
boats; "mini-marinas" where a number of boats are
rafted together, narrow canals with bulky boats docked
on both sides. Corrough commented that navigation
can be pretty tricky in such a situation. Bob Cox's
reply: "Use fenders."

Who really owns Cora

By GLORIA KATZ
Waterfront News staff
Members of the Coral Cove Association, a co-op
located on the Intracoastal just north of Sunrise Blvd.,
facing Birch State Park, have decided to pursue legal
action regarding the Coral Cove Bay. They have filed
a quiet title action to determine just who owns the
bottom land directly in front of the condo, says
Richard Mills, the attorney hired to file the claim.
"The action will tell us our interest in the property
as opposed to others," Mills said.
With Jim Troutman's Sunrise Bay Marina slated to
be built on the south end of the bay, and Coral Ridge
Yacht Club building docks on the north end, members
of the Association felt their tranquility and view were
being eaten away. It also became apparent that only a
small channel was left for the use of Coral Cove's
boaters. The channel may limit accessibility, the size
of boats or ability to build their own docks.
"When the Sunrise Bay people came in, we had no
legal standing to the land, so we challenged them on
noise and impact," said Alex Clark, an attorney and
board spokesman for the Association. "But when the
yacht club suddenly got permits to build, they chopped
off our view and wouldn't talk to us about it."
The Association was concerned that the

1 Cove?
commercializing of the bay would ruin the tranquil
piece of water and that property values would drop.
"We just want to preserve it [the bay]," Clark said.
The legal action filed on behalf of the landowners
pertains to the north half of the south side of the bay.
Documents have been found suggesting perhaps both
the yacht club and-the abutting land owners own the
bottom land jointly.
The question then is whether the country club built
docks on jointly held property. A judge will determine
if the bottom land is owned as tenants in common or
not.
"This is not an adversarial relationship," said
Clark. "We are actually suing the land and only a
judicial determination can settle the situation. We just
want the yacht club to treat us seriously."
SYacht club Commodore Carl Winkler said the club
never built new docks, but only restructured the south
docks which have been there for approximately 40
years. "We have no more piers than we had before,"
he said. "We don't understand what they are upset
about."
Clark disagreed. "That's not my understanding,"
he said. "There are also new docks. They've doubled
the size of their docks."
The action could take up to two years before a
determination is reached.

Ancient Mariner to be sunk off Palm Beach/Broward County

By CRAIG LUSTGARTEN
Waterfront News staff
A ship with a colorful past is scheduled to be sunk
as an artificial reef off the Broward/Palm Beach
County line on June 9.
The Ancient Mariner, formerly a seafood restaurant
docked on Fort Lauderdale's New River, was recently
bought by the South Florida Divers Club for $6,000.
The 165-foot vessel was then sold to Grady Marine,
who will be preparing, towing and then sinking the
vessel.
Broward and Palm Beach Counties are splitting the
$28,500 cost of the artificial reef project. The Ancient
Mariner will be sunk in the same area as the Nova
Express, just off the south end of Boca Raton's
shores.
Jim Vaughn, an environmentalist with Palm Beach
County's Department of Environmental Resource
Management (DERM), stated, "I think the ship will

make an excellent diving wreck it's very open inside
and there is lots of area to explore."
The Ancient Mariner was originally a Coast Guard
cutter which patrolled the waters of Florida during
World War II. In 1979, it opened as Livingston's
Landing, a floating restaurant docked off the New
River. After having financial problems, the boat was
scheduled to reopen as the Ancient Mariner when it
sank in 1981. Five years later, the Ancient Mariner
spelled bad fortune for 97 diners who caught hepatitis
from a food worker. The boat was recently auctioned
off to investors from Mississippi who wanted to have
it towed to the state for use as a riverboat gambling
ship. The investors defaulted on their purchase
agreement because they couldn't find anyone who
would tow the vessel, and the second bidders, the
South Florida Divers Club, won rights to the ship.
They decided to turn it over to Grady Marine to be
sunk as an artificial reef.

Teams worldwide to compete in human

submarine races in Palm Beach

By CRAIG LUSTGARTEN
Waterfront News staff
What sport combines the endurance of bicycling,
the logistics of diving, and the technology of naval
engineering?
The answer human submarine races.
Over 36 teams from all over the world will be
competing in the second International Submarine
Races off Singer Island, June 15-23.
The goal of each team is to design, construct and
then race a two-person, human-powered submersible
through a course below the surface of the ocean.
The organizers of the event are the H.A. Perry
Foundation and Florida Atlantic University's
Department of Ocean Engineering. Florida Atlantic
University (FAU) will also be racing a submarine in
the competition, and finished in the top ten at the first
competition held in 1989. The U.S. Naval Academy
was the overall winner that year.
The FAU entrant, known as the FA U-Boat, is a
12-foot long, cigar-shaped submarine made of
fiberglass/foam construction, with forward and rear
dive fins and a two-bladed propellor.
The two occupants of the craft, a propulsor and a
navigator, will lie face down overlapping one another.
The cramped quarters would normally scare a lot of
people, but the competitors won't feel it as much
because their vessel will be submerged. Each team
member will utilize dive tanks with about a half-hour's
worth of oxygen in each.
Dr. Ray McAllister, professor of Ocean
Engineering at FAU, stated, "The challenge is to get
the sub into the ocean, through the surf zone, to run
against whatever currents are out there, and then to
bring it back-onto the beach in good condition for the
next run."
This year's competition is spread out over 10 days,
so any bad weather can be compensated for by
rescheduling events.
Rob Coulson, who is the submarine project leader
at FAU, stated, "I think we have a great chance of
winning the handling and speed of our vessel
compared to the one we entered two years ago is much
better."
However, Coulson added that the FAU entrant
will be up against stiff competition from universities all
over the country and the world, industrial
organizations, and the U.S. Navy.
Competitors will battle it out on two courses an
800-meter circular course and a 100-meter straight
course. There will be speed heats and elimination
heats, with the finalists running against each other in
head-to-head competition. Prizes will be awarded in
three categories cost effectiveness, innovation, and
speed, with the overall performance winner taking
home a $5,000 grand prize.
Before entering the competition, each vessel must
pass a safety inspection and all submarine crews must
hold a nationally recognized SCUBA certification. All
propulsion systems and control surface systems on the
vessel must be human-powered and human-operated.
FAU is scheduled to have Mike Jenkins as the peddler
and Jeff Roccapriore as the navigator of its boat.

Solo boater found dead at sea
WEST PALM BEACH (AP) A man missing at
sea since April 18 was found dead in his rented boat,
the U.S. Coast Guard said in late April. His wrists
had been slashed.
A passing tug on April 25 spotted the drifting
vessel and the body of 49-year-old James Manteris, of
Jupiter Inlet, about 30 miles north of Little Bahama
Bank, the Coast Guard said.
Manteris had rented the 21-foot Gadzooks from
Club Nautico in Palm Beach Gardens for a one-day
fishing trip. He said he was taking the boat 15 miles
offshore to fish for dolphin, the Coast Guard said.
Manteris didn't return that evening as expected,
and the Coast Guard, Navy and Air Force launched a
four-day search the next day.
The search covered about 45,500 square miles
from West Palm Beach north to Savannah, Ga., but
was suspended April 22.
The FBI, Palm Beach Gardens police and the Palm
Beach County Medical Examiner investigated the
death.
Manteris appears to have died accidentally on a
rented boat that had run out of gas, the FBI said.
"At the current time, our information does not tend
to support that suicide or foul play was involved," said
FBI agent Robert Neumann on May 2. "It tends to
look like it might be an accident."
The death of James Manteris came under odd
circumstances.
Blood from a five-inch wound in his left wrist was
found all over the 21-foot boat rented April 18, but no
weapon capable of inflicting the injury was found
aboard, said Coast Guard Lt. Kenneth King.
The boat was at full throttle, but the 80-gallon gas
tank was empty and the battery was dead, said Coast
Guardsman Michael Pittmann, who boarded and
searched the boat.
The Coast Guard conducted a four-day search after
Manteris' wife reported him missing, but the boat and
body weren't found for a week.
Pittmann found a 9mm Browning semiautomatic
pistol inside the cabin in a duffel bag, and the line on a
fishing pole was in the water.
Manteris thawed out a piece of meat for dinner
before he went fishing, indicating he planned to come
back in, said John Davis, a friend who attended
Manteris' funeral in Las Vegas.
Manteris' brother, Art, runs the sports gambling
operation at the Las Vegas Hilton. Art Manteris and
others have said the dead man was a professional
gambler who lived off his winnings and investments.

Heritage, June 1991 Waterfront News 17

Columbus celebration hits shallow waters

By HANK JONES
Waterfront News staff
Thanks to the money from Queen Isabella's
jewels, Columbus didn't have to navigate perilous
financial shoals and reefs when he crossed the Atlantic
and made a landfall on what may, or may not, have
been San Salvador in the souther Bahamas.
Plans to raise and spend generous amounts of cash
to make South Florida's 1991 Columbus celebration
successful and profitable have crashed on the
rocks, however.
Miami businessman John N. Goudie, former
chairman of the federal Christopher Columbus
Quincentenary Jubilee Commission, resigned at the
end of last year. With his resignation came the
revelation that the program was near collapse with
more than $720,000 in debt.
Mismanagement, not criminal wrongdoing, was
the finding of a preliminary probe by the General
Accounting Office.
Now a new commission chairman, Frank J.
Donatelli, a former White House aide, has been on the
job three months. He is trying to salvage any benefits
remaining that may accrue from the discovery day
celebration. A projected 50-city tour has been scaled

back to perhaps 12 cities.
Issuance of a commemorative coin would fund a
lecture series, a scholarship program and an essay
competition at the elementary school level.
Spain, which had been building replicas of the
three caravels Nina, Pinta and Santa Maria -
withdrew from the project when a $600,000 payment
was missed. Texaco, another sponsor, withdrew at the
same time.
Donatelli is trying to rebuild a representative
commemorative effort. Goal is to raise $3 million in
about 15 months.
Goudie, a Reagan appointee, stumbled when his
personal finances suffered reversals and he faced
personal and business bankruptcy. A real estate broker
and Republican fund-raiser, he had been appointed to
the Columbus project in 1985. In five years he had
less than $1-million toward a $3-million goal.
Businesses that had signed licensing agreements
and entered into other negotiations with the committee,
claimed Goudie had been playing favorites with
friends.
GAO's director of government business
operations, L. Nye Stevens, has said that what should
be the home stretch of the campaign now has become
an operation to salvage any possible benefits.

Historic boats featured in museum exhibition

Boating. becomes an indoor sport when the
Historical Museum of Southern Florida displays the
best examples from the John C. Harrison, Sr.
Recreational Maritime Collection. Antique boats as
well as outboard motors will be on display July 12-
September 22, 1991 in the museum's temporary
exhibit gallery.
The complete collection, recently acquired by the
museum, has been described as one of the most
representative in the United states. It traces the
technological development of recreational boating in
South Florida from 1909 to 1950. It is comprised of
more than 250 outboard motors and 33 boats, some of
which were built and used in the Miami area. Boating
companies such as Evinrude, Calle, Elto and Johnson
are represented in the collection.

time boating on Biscayne Bay. His interest in outboard
motors and speed boats grew when he started racing
hydroplanes in the 1940s and 1950s. Eventually, he
began collecting some of the motors and boats he had
known as a boy.
The Harrison family donated the collection to the
museum to preserve examples of South Florida's
boating heritage for future generations. This
community has enjoyed a rich history of water-related
recreation, from sailboat cruises in the 1800s to
windsurfing today. Florida ranks third in the nation for
number of boat registrations.
The museum is located at 101 W. Flagler Street in
downtown Miami. Hours are Monday-Saturday 10
a.m.-5 p.m.; Thursday 10 a.m.-9 p.m.; Sunday noon-
5 p.m. Admission is $4.00 for adults; $2.00 for

LHP historian wins writing award
Stuart McIver, Broward County author from
Lighthouse Point, has won the Florida Historical
Society's Golden Quill Award for historical writing for
the second year in a row.
The award, presented at the society's 1991 annual
meeting in Orlando, was given for Mclver's historical
series, "The Way We Were," which runs in Sunshine,
,the Fort Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel's Sunday magazine.
The stories submitted for the statewide contest
were on Zora Neale Hurston, Florida's famed black
novelist and folklorist, and on the devastating floods
of 1947 which made most of South Florida a
waterfront. A number of the author's stories have been
compiled in two books, Glimpses of South Florida
History and True Tales of the Everglades, both
published by Florida Flair. Mclver has also written
several articles in the past for the Waterfront News.

Coast Guard says it still does not know when new tax hits the water

By ALLEN THOMAS
VANCOUVER, Wash. (AP) The U.S. Coast
Guard says it still does not know when the new tax on
recreational boats 16 feet and longer will go into effect.
Congress approved an annual Coast Guard "user
fee" ranging from $25 to $100 as part of the
federal budget package adopted last October. The fee is
for a five-year period, fiscal years 1991 through 1995.
Under the Coast Guard's proposed rules, a decal
would have to be affixed to boats as proof of payment.
It would be valid for a federal fiscal year, Oct. 1
through Sept. 30.
Cmdr. John McElwain of the Coast Guard's
Washington, D.C., office said having the decal valid
on a federal fiscal year may change, depending on
public comment. It may be switched to a calendar year.
McElwain also said it is still to be determined when
the fee will go into effect. Conceivably, a boat owner
might have to buy the decal for a partial year.
The proposed fees are: $25 for boats longer than
16 feet but shorter than 20 feet, $35 for boats at least
20 feet but shorter than 27 feet, $50 for vessels at least
27 feet but less than 40 feet, and $100 for vessels at
least 40 feet.

Exempt from the fee would be racing boats,

sculls.
The Coast Guard has not proposed procedures for
actually buying the decal. Among the options are
buying in person, by mail or by telephone.
To no one's surprise, the new fee is not popular
with boaters. House Resolution 534 was introduced in
Congress in late January to repeal the fee.

Florida legislature kills

statewide speed limit for boats

By BILL KACZOR
Associated Press Writer
TALLAHASSEE A tough bill mandating
statewide boating speed limits failed to pass during the
1991 Florida legislative session which ended in early
May.
Legislation was introduced to establish statewide
boating speed limits of 25 miles per hour at night and
35 mph during daylight hours to help protect manatees
and reduce human fatalities and injuries.
The limits were successfully opposed by the
marine industry. The Senate voted instead to require
that local governments establish speed limits, but that
measure died in the House.
The amended Senate bill (CS-SB 1028) had passed
29-9.
As originally drafted, the Senate bill by Sen.
Winston "Bud" Gardner, D-Titusville, also would
have required a 25 mph nighttime limit everywhere and
a 35 mph daytime limit only in marked channels.
"I think it's pretty good," Gardner said of the bill
after the local speed limit amendment was adopted on a
voice vote.
Sen. James Scott, R-Fort Lauderdale, disagreed.
"It's a real bad bill and this doesn't make it any
better," Scott said, pointing out it would require speed
limits everywhere, not just in marked channels.
Sen. William Bankhead, R-Jacksonville,
suggested the revised bill might violate a new
constitutional prohibition against unfunded state
mandates to local governments. The bill doesn't
appropriate any money for posting local speed limits.
However, Sen. Mary Grizzle, R-Belleair Shore,
who chairs the Governmental Operations Committee,
ruled that it fell within an exemption for important state
purposes.
The goal of the legislation is to reduce the death
and injuries suffered by manatees and people in and on
the state's waters. The endangered manatee is a slow-
moving target and frequently struck by speeding boats.
"The situation that exists right now is that there is
no statewide policy that relates to speeds on the water,"
Gardner said. "Speed can kill, not just manatees, but
people."
As many as 50 manatees and nearly twice as many
people are killed every year as a result of boat

collisions and other accidents on Florida waters,
according to state statistics.
Florida's marine industry in general has opposed
speed limits out of fear they would reduce sales of
high-powered boats, according to a staff analysis of
the bill.
The Senate bill would require cities and counties to
adopt site-specific speed limits as a result of the
amendment offered by Sen. John McKay, R-
Bradenton.
McKay said he doubted the practicality of applying
a 35 mph daytime limit only in marked channels
because it would force faster boats into shallower
water where manatees tend to congregate in large
numbers. He also questioned the state's ability to
enforce such a limit.
Before McKay's amendment was adopted, the
Senate virtually gutted the bill by approving a motion
by Sen. Pat Thomas, D-Quincy, to exempt boats
without speedometers from the proposed statewide
speed limits.
Thomas said he didn't want commercial fishermen
in small boats who cannot afford fancy equipment to
be ticketed because they couldn't tell how fast they
were going.
Gardner pointed out that it would have created a
giant loophole in the speed limit because boaters could
simply remove their speedometers and be exempt.
Voting against the bill were Senators Scott,
Bankhead, Malcolm Beard, R-Seffner, Vince Bruner,
D-Fort Walton Beach; W.D. Childers, D-Pensacola;
Ander Crenshaw, R-Jacksonville; Richard Crotty, R-
Orlando; Rick Dantzler, D-Winter Haven, and Larry
Plummer, D-South Miami.
