Page 10 By BETH WALSH Special to Waterfront News ABACO, The Bahamas Pleasure boaters and landlubbers alike will enjoy "Regatta Time in Abaco," the annual cruising, racing and fun-in-the-sun event held in The Bahamas every July. This year's festivities take place July 4-13, and are open to anyone with a sailboat, from sunfish to 700-footers. The Regatta series begins July 4 at Green Turtle Cay and concludes four races later in Marsh Harbor on July 13, with a full day of land festivities scheduled. The competition is open to fast boats (Performance Handicap Rating Formula Classes) and the less serious cruising boats (in the Mother Tub classes). Participants race in the Abaco Sound around islands, cays, buoys and boats, with each race at a different settlement. In past years, an average of 90 yachts have competed; most classes consist of around 10 competitors. Winners take home trophies made by local artists including prized bronze sculptures of marine life and ceramic plaques. The event also attracts thousands of spectators, including American and Canadian tourists, and many Bahamians from other islands. Some of these visitors come by boat, others fly in to the Abacos, especially for Regatta Time. In addition to the racing aspect, there is plenty of time for land fun during Regatta Time in Abaco. Other activities include local cooking, craft, and art booths, music and dancing. In between the many races there are also beach parties, cocktail parties and dinner events at the various clubs, restaurants, marinas and resorts, where hungry racers and visitors dine on platters of conch fritters. The Abacos are located in the northeast Bahamas, stretching for 130 miles from Walker's Cay in the north to Hole in the Wall in the southwest. In between lie great Abaco Island, with its bustling city of Marsh Harbour; Green Turtle Cay, home to the charming seaside village of New Plymouth and Man-of-War Cay, the boat-building center of the Abacos. The islands are easily accessible from the U.S. with regularly scheduled service from Fort Lauderdale and Miami. For more information about Regatta Time in Abaco, call The Bahamas Sports Information Line at 800-32-SPORT; or contact Dave or Kathy Ralph in Marsh Harbour, Abaco at 809-367-2677. Green Turtle fishing tournament results ABACO, The Bahamas The Green Turtle Yacht Club brought its best and finest face forward for this 10th Annual Fishing Tournament. Improvements, just to name a few, were a new elegant dining room, new gift shop and office, renovated rooms and a new wooden deck extending the patio to accommodate dancing and other club activities. Fifteen of the twenty- six boats had participated in this event last year and could not believe all the club had done. The club had even converted their saltwater pool to a heated freshwater pool. The tournament began with all 75 anglers trying to win a Phoenix 29-foot sport fishing boat worth over $130,000 with accessories. They were aboard 26 boats May 16-18. The only "catch" to winning it was to bring in a blue marlin over 510 pounds, thus setting a tetpage 13 new tournament record. Of the 28 hookups for billfish, fourteen resulted in billfish releases. John Day on Another Mystery led the. release category with his angler, Van Connelly. They had two blues the first day. However, on the last day of fishing, Rene Cross surpassed this by tagging two blues and a white marlin in less than six hours. The boat North Star, which is based normally in New Orleans, had Georgette Pidal from the Billfish Foundation aboard that day. Other fish released were as follows: blue marlin (two) by David Graham, Terminator, (one) by Banner Thomas Escape II, Mack Bares Kukaro, Chris Newton R-Venture, Ramsey Simmons III KJ and Bernie Boniface Bumpers; sailfish by Larry Transue Second Chance and Don Fritsma Who Cares. In thenon-billfish division, the Top Boat Award was the KJ, John Hundley's boat. High Point Angler was Rob Bussart on the Nan Sea Bee. The High Point Lady Angler was Elizabeth Simmons aboard the KJ. This award was very exciting for Elizabeth because it was her first time ever as an angler. The Top Member Angler was Dr. Richard Hayes on the Seyah. Dr. Hayes has participated in the tournament since its inception ten years ago, but this was his first year as an angler.

United Services Automobile Association confirmed the good news. Since companies compete in this area, other insurers should provide equal coverage. There appear to be double benefits for boaters who prefer to rent boats. The coverage is there. Southern Ocean Racing Conference officials have dropped the St. Petersburg-Fort Lauderdale race in 1992. The event drew only five yachts out of a fleet of 44. Less than a quarter-century ago SORC fleets were magnificent, sometimes with more than 100 boats. Aside from the St. Pete-Lauderdale race the agenda included a Miami-Nassau race and the Governor's Cup off Nassau. For local yachtsmen the Fort Lauderdale/Miami-Montego Bay (Jamaica) race now is perhaps the greatest challenge. Busy, pressure-filled business/professional lifestyles don't conform to yesterday's race agendas, except for professionals. Professor Frank Millero, Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science University of Miami, is one of three winners of $225,000 grants awarded .over three years. The Ocean Science Educator award is bestowed by the Office of Naval Research for outstanding records in research and graduate education. Millero is a specialist in marine physical chemistry. The award supports post-doctoral fellowships. Other 1991 winners are Allan Robinson, Harvard and Miriam Kastner, Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The Kissimmee Boat-a-Cade was a closed affair this year an innovative trip extending the fleet's cruising waters. Skippers trailered their boats from Kissimmee to Fernandina Beach, then cruised to Savannah, Charleston, and Georgetown, S.C., a lovely historic community. The return voyage called at Hilton Head, SC, St. Simon's Island, GA and Fernandina Beach some 660 miles in seven days. To our memory, this was the first cruise of its kind offered by Boat-A-Cade. Boats cruised with a buddy, notlin groups, and with fewer shore functions. It was the group's initial cruise in these waters and no report has been received as to success of the effort. Boat-A- Cade's October Jamboree is October 25-27. For information write: Kissimmee Boat-A-Cade Inc., P.O. Box 421855, Kissimmee, FL 34742-1855. From the Corps of Engineers, two notes worth logging: three locks will be closed to traffic this summer and fall, the Port Mayaca Lock will be closed for maintenance and painting from July 29 to Oct. 19, and the St. Lucie Lock from Sept. 3 through Oct. 26. This will close the Okeechobee Waterway for lake and west coast traffic from Stuart. The third closure is the Canaveral Lock to be closed fom Sept. 25 to Nov. 5, and again from Nov. 27 through Jan. 10, 1992. The Canaveral Lock controls the Canaveral Harbor Barge Channel. 231 S.W. 21 Terrace, Ft.

Hanna, a local bridgetender, made a point in ai tter to the editor of the Sun-Sentinel when he asked boadters to show courtesy to avoid unnecessary openings of bridges. Retractable outriggers and antennas that remain i an upright position cost time and money for waiting motorists. With gear retracted, some boats could pass the bridge without causing an opening, and the expense to taxpayers. Came a thought that at one time it was illegal in Fort Lauderdale not to lower retractable gear. After a quick check Capt. Mike Doran of the Fort Lauderdale Police Department reports the ordinance is on the city's books, and that it is enforced.

The wakes of boats traveling at 25 mph, let alone higher speeds, do enormous damage to sea walls, retaining structures, and both hard and natural edges along the waterway. Seawalls and other retaining devices are slowly but absolutely inevitably undermined. In time, every foot of such walls will require rebuilding or replacement. The costs of rebuilding miles and miles of retaining structures will be mega-millions of dollars. Individual landowners will bear that burden, one by one. The problem is that landowners along the ICW either are not conscious of the changes occurring or, in the best spirit of playing ostrich, they leave it for the next owner or their survivors. Like the national debt, it's somebody else's problem. The sloughed-off silt and debris from the undermined seawalls move out into the canals and waterway, where every taxpayer will pay the costs of dredging and removal. Those costs, too, are inevitable. They won't, of course, happen overnight and, because change is too slow to measure in the wake of a single boat or even a lot of boats, it is ignored and forgotten. But pay we will! The present speed limits on the ICW throughout the urbanized part of southern Florida are an environmental disaster! All of the ICW should be a no wake zone. Every inch of it! An inland man-made waterway adjacent to homes and walkways and parks ought not be subject to the noisy, destructive affront of speedboats whose power is better suited to the ocean. If all of southern Florida were declared a no wake zone, a major component of the complaining marina owner's objections would be non-existent. No marina or inlet would lose business because speeders could not go elsewhere. If the speed limit is uniform no wake nobody loses and thousands of landowners and millions of taxpayers will benefit both financially and in the quality of life. And as a bonus, more manatees may survive. Dwight F. Rettie Fort Lauderdale Tristan Jones sails to Romania To the Editor: Apology! It's not easy to admit a gross error. I hope my American and Canadian friends will understand and forgive more readily than perhaps iome others. My blunder was in believing that the December, 1989 revolution in Romania and the subsequent election had been genuine, and agreeing to be Commodore of Constanta Marina, the first and only Yacht Commodore in Eastern Europe. I'd imagined it might perhaps be a small step toward individual liberty for all. It was closely connected with potential yacht- traffic on the Lower Danube (a cause very much in my heart). It was also and this takes some admitting a sop to what bit of my battered ego survived. But even more it was perhaps a way for us to connect with Romanian kids and especially disabled orphans. I'd even hoped to train some as Danube-yacht pilots. After three months in Romania, and a further six months reviewing almost incredible, ybt indisputable evidence from' many sources, I'm convinced that the revolution of 1989 was engineered by the Soviet KGB to keep a bedrock core of Romanian Marxism intact Power Squadron has big turnout To the Editor: The Palm Beach Power Squadron sincerely thanks the media for their help in getting out the word to the public regarding our most recent boating course. We had one of bur best turnouts ever and we feel strongly that this is, in a large part, due to the excellent media cooperation which we received. Our classes, for which students pay nothing except for a nominal charge for materials, are taught by a dedicated cadre of volunteer members. They gladly give of their time believing that only through education the number of boating accidents and/or fatalities can be reduced. It is by the support of the media that it is possible for the public to become aware of the value of safe boating education. Again thank you for your cooperation. When our fall Public Safe Boating courses are announced, your continued, interest and assistance will be essential to the success of this program.

At the same time it got rid of Ceaucescu, who, bloody tyrant that he was, had yet defied Soviet hegemony. While awaiting handouts, the Romanian Communist Party, now the "National Salvation Front," (i.e., racketeers' monopoly) raised every obstacle possible to prevent any activity that (like an Atlantis Society Danube Pilot's School) might teach a smidgen of individuality, or personal responsibility. The delivery of $130,000 worth of medical supplies donated to us in the USA for Romanian children's hospitals was blocked. No Romanian ship all owned by the government was available, they claimed, to carry our gear. The excuse was insufficiency. The real reason was that all they want from the USA is dollars for their own pockets. I learned long ago: when hazards abound, change course, so we've redirected the medical supplies, as a hon-sectarian donation, to the Phuket Mission Hospital, Thailand. Before your Atlantis Society boat, Henry Wagner, set out on its crossing of the Kra in 1987, PMH provided free dental and medical treatment to our whole Thai crew. My book (100 illustrations) about our Kra crossing, To Venture Further, is to be published in UK (for Canada) by Grafton in March 1991, and in August 1991 in USA by William Morrow. Tristan Jones Phuket, Thailand Editor's Note: After writing this letter, Jones was admitted to the Phuket Mission Hospital in Phuket, Thailand, with a severe intestinal obstruction. Surgery was performed. After the operation he developed acute arterial blockage in his remaining leg. Surgical intervention was necessary to correct the circulatory problem. His condition is stable and he is progressively improving. Tristan's birthday was May 8. He is 67-years-old.

V V V V V V.. V V V V V V 'V 'V V V V V V V A formula for disaster To the Editor: A worthy state-mandated goal of sea cow protection, supposedly enhanced by county-wide input, is being transformed into a formula for disaster. The most striking statistic offered is the remarkably good county boating safety/sea cow record. A fatality rate of less than 1.5 sea cows per annum, attributed to all types of boating is remarkable in a county with over 44,000 registered pleasure boats.[See "Lauderdale balks at manatee plan," page 6.] I have personally conducted a survey among professional boat operators who spend a tremendous amount of time on our waterways. These operators are commercial towing companies, dinner cruise and excursion vessel operators, water taxi captains, and several Marine Police officers. They are unanimous in their lack of sightings of sea cows in the ICW north of the Bahia Mar areas. A much more interesting observation is made by customers and operators at two of the local fishing piers. Sea cows are frequently seen at these locations, indicating they use the coastline as a migration route. Allow me to put these observations in the same context of the subcommittee's research and recommendations and the committee's attempt to make these sometimes "one-man" concepts appear to be the result of extensive research: A. Sea cows use the coast route as observed from fishing piers. B. Commercial operators do not observe sea cows travelling the ICW. C. Sea cow/boating fatalities occur during the winter months coinciding with a high number of visiting yachts and cruise lines. Conclusions and recommended policies which could be derived from this incomplete study: 1. Sea cows travel the county's coastline, therefore, it should be closed to boating and commercial interests out to the three (3) mile state jurisdiction. 2. Out of county registered boaters and cruise lines should not be allowed on the water- ways of Broward county or state-regulated waters during the winter months. In conclusion, man may well be this county's truly endangered species. The committee's goals and policies are the death knell of the marine industry in Broward county. This will irrevocably lead to the demise of the tourist industry, our largest business, and, in turn, a dramatic decline in property values and increased blight The plans proposed will result in one great fatality, Broward County's "golden goose" - boating!

But you never tell us who the good mechanics are. Where the honest marinas are. Or what to do when we get a bad deal. You've been around awhile and you must know. Kiely Dear Kiely - I wish I could answer your request, but there are many great mechanics and honest marinas. When you find one, keep him or her. Tell your friends. They are worth their weight in gold. If you get a bad deal, tell your friends, these people should be put out of business. Check the shop are they busy? Is the place clean? Are the mechanics competent and courteous? A rude or incompetent mechanic is usually one to avoid. By the way, there are some great gals who are really good. Al Dear Al - I just bought a used boat and I've had nothing but trouble with it. Went for a test ride before I bought the boat and it ran swell. About the third time I used it, we stalled and I had to put new filters in (filled with dirt and water). Just had the carburetor pulled, cleaned and retuned. Ran great for a month and same thing filters loaded and erratic running. Where is all this coming from? Joe Dear Joe - There is only one place that all this water and dirt is coming from your fuel tanks. They must be drained and cleaned to remove all contaminants in them. There are many firms that specialize in pumping out fuel tanks and cleaning them. After tanks are cleaned, clean fuel pumped in and new filters installed, I would check where I buy my fuel. Dirty fuel from dirty fuel tanks in a marina can cause much grief for an unsuspecting boat owner. Dear Al - Whenever I lift my hatch, I notice my carburetor is always damp and I wonder what could be causing this. What can I do to correct this? Shelly Dear Shelly - If you are still around do not use your boat. Leaking gas is a dangerous no no. Explosions and fires are always the result of gas leaks. Check all connections, gaskets and float levels or better yet, remove carburetor and have it rebuilt or exchanged. Do it now. Al 000 Dear Al - My mechanic told me my props were too large for my boat and that's why I couldn't get enough RPMs out of my engine. I don't understand him at all and I hate to invest in new props until I'm sure of what is happening. I really can't get a good answer out of him. Sally Dear Sally - This is the fourth propeller question sent to me this month. About your mechanic: unless you both can communicate I would get another mechanic that could explain why it's the props or screws that give you more RPMs. The smaller the prop or screw the less thrust on the blades and the faster the engine revs up. That does not mean the boat will go faster. Sometimes it will produce cavitation that can erode your prop and struts. There are many books and articles on propelling and the Coast Guard Auxiliary course on boat handling can tell it well. Al Dear Al - I want to buy a jet ski for my wife and I. Can you give me any information on them and the safety factor and regulations, etc. about them? I noticed that the police department of some towns are using them on patrols so they must be OK. Frank Dear Frank - Jet skis are as safe as the person using them. The larger jet skis that hold two people should be the one to buy. There are small two-passenger jet skis that look like a dinghy that are available also. Jet skis and snowmobiles and motorcycles are great as long as they are not abused. Jet' skis haven't any props as they move by using a jet of water to propel them, and most have a cutoff when a driver is tossed into the water. Read the manual and safety instructions when you buy one. Stay clearof bathers or swimmers and congested areas. Have fun.

SWIFT Waterfrnt News writer The City of Fort Lauderdale may "cut out" of a Broward County plan to protect the manatee, Assistant City Manager John Stinson told the city's Marine Advisory Board (MAB) in June. Stinson questioned the legality of a county-wide plan mandated by the State of Florida. Broward and 12 other counties (including Dade and Palm Beach) were ordered by the governor and cabinet to come up with individual outlines for how to protect the endangered marine mammal. [See "Task forces weigh manatees and marinas," page 1, May 1991 and "Manatees and marine-industry lobbyists on collision course," page 17, April 1991, Waterfront News.] "This will kill boatyards on Dania Cut-off Canal," said Dania City Commissioner Bill Hyde. "Travel time to the inlet will be too long." Dade County's manatee protection plan calls for a seven-mph speed limit in most of Biscayne Bay. "That destroys boating in Dade County," declared Bouncer Smith, a North Miami fishing guide and president of the South Florida Fishing Club. "There is no recreational boating that is done at the speeds that they have set" Smith, who lives in Broward County, told the Fort Lauderdale MAB, "People will move their boats to the upper Keys." The board unanimously voted to advise the Broward task force which is drafting the county plan to include a "buffer zone of 'No Wake"' on either side of the Intracoastal Waterway to serve as a manatee pedestrian corridor on weekends and holidays. They also suggested that boats be exempt from any new speed restrictions if they have one of the following: a designated "manatee observer," a VHF radio tuned to a manatee warming alert; U.S. Coast Guard-licensed captain; or have taken a manatee awareness training class and displays the course certificate or decal. The MAB also wants no dockage restrictions on residential waterfront homes and demands an environmental impact study done before any manatee plan is implemented in Fort Lauderdale. The Broward County Manatee Protection Task Force met twice in June. A spokesman from the MAB delivered the board's suggestions to the Task Force June 10. At that same meeting, Donald Stone, a Broward County planner, gave the task force the county staffs recommendations for the proposed Manatee Protection Plan. The panel met again on June 24. Future public meetings are planned through August with the next task force meeting scheduled for July 15. If all goes according to plan, the Broward County Commission will consider the task force's proposal in September. From there it goes to Tallahassee for final approval by the Cabinet. Who's killing the baby manatees? By SUSAN B. PETERSON Waterfront News writer Statistics on manatee deaths compiled by the Florida Department of Natural Resources (DNR) indicate a sharp increase in "undetermined neonatal deaths" in the past five years, according to Dr. Jesse White, a veterinarian and marine mammal specialist who created successful captive breeding programs for' manatees at the Miami Seaquarium, using special nutrition to promote fertility. Dr. White said that one- third of the 216 reported manatee deaths in DNR's reports for last year were newborn manatee calves. Why are they dying in increasing numbers? A possible cause could be the new herbicides that DNR is using in the waterways to control aquatic weeds. One of several new herbicides used in state spraying programs is the EPA-approved Sonar. Is it safe to use on manatee habitats? No one knows. Dr. White says that these herbicides have only been tested on carnivorous lab animals such as rats, never on herbivorous marine animals such as manatees. Manatee Alert's Rick Baquero, who spoke at the Manatee Survival Foundation meeting on June 10 at the Ft. Lauderdale Airport Hilton, said his group had photo documentation of state employees spraying herbicide close to mother manatees nursing their young. To add to the confusion, DNR does not know the cause of death for approximately two-thirds of all dead manatees. DNR has had no qualified animal pathologists to perform necropsies since 1987. At present, when dead manatees are found, they are autopsied by state-employed biologists who are not qualified to perform pathological exams. No tissue samples are sent to labs for further analysis. There isn't proper scientific followup as to the cause of death. It is easier to spot propeller marks than pesticide poisoning, for example. Dr. White criticized DNR's Patrick Rose for lack of leadership in this area. Mary Ann Grey, of the Manatee Survival Foundation,' also criticized Rose for refusing to provide her group with information about how the manatee license plate fees are being spent. t Rick Baquero reported that Manatee Alert, after ten years of research in "remedial symbiosis" in Lee and Collier Counties has come up with a sample manatee protection program that takes a close look at where the problems originate. Baquero stated that his group's research indicates that habitat destruction (herbicides destroying aquatic vegetation that manatees eat) and poisoning of manatees by spraying programs might be the primary cause of manatee deaths in Florida. Apparently various DNR programs don't communicate with one another on these issues (the right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing). Baquero said he doesn't think boaters should be made scapegoats for the larger problem, and that in Lee and Collier Counties, many boaters have supported their voluntary compliance manatee protection programs.

Waterfront News writer A bill authorizing the construction of the tunnel under the Intracoastal Waterway at the S.E. 17th Street Causeway in Fort Lauderdale has been introduced to the U.S. House of Representatives and a request for $9.9 million has gone before the Transportation and ,Appropriation Committees. S Congressman Clay Shaw, who favors the tunnel, presented the requests and has discussed the $70 million project with county, state and city officials. Initial money of $3.69 million for engineering and environmental studies has already been given to the state. The next monies sought will be for design and right of way acquisition. "The money will take the project out of the paper stage and move it forward," said Shaw. A Florida Department of Transportation feasibility study done in 1988 looked at 30 or so alternatives including building a high level bridge. Florida Dept. of Transportation Planner Richard Pereira, who participated in the study, said they looked at traffic: capacity, and existing right of way. But the study did not go into great detail. According to the DOT study results, a high level bridge created adverse visual impacts to the area, restricted the future of this area by fixing vertical clearances and provided undesirable roadway grades. The study determined a tunnel was the best alternative in terms of traffic, clearance, visual impact, access to commercial properties, and minimal construction impacts. Only the cost was a detriment. 'The federal government responded that the tunnel was not cost effective," said Pereira. "They recommended rebuilding two intersections and replacing the present bridge with a high level drawbridge when traffic got bad." Shaw says the length and land acquisition for a high level bridge would be a problem, however. Consequently, present studies are going ahead with the design. Those studies also include cost, which could go as $ .- = ,_ .... .; . . high as $90 million with 50 percent coming from the federal government. The remainder would have to come from county, state and city coffers. "But," said Shaw, "let's complete the design phase first and then, depending on the technology used, pin down cost." The environmental and engineering studies being done now look at the three alternatives: the tunnel, drawbridge, and high-level fixed bridge. The completed study will be presented at a public hearing in March 1992. "A majority of the engineering work will be completed by then," Pereira said. "They should have a good handle on cost of each alternative as to construction, right of way and impacts of each project." Although everyone wants the tunnel, said Pereira, the cost makes it difficult. "We've looked at joint development, taxes, and tolls as funding, but we can't find one thing to solve the problem," said Pereira. "Yet the tunnel is the best alternative." True, by moving the intersection at 23rd Ave east a few blocks, a 65 foot bridge could be built, said Pereira. It would have six percent grades which, he said, people don't like. To build a higher bridge, one needs a large right-of-way and that becomes expensive. "This is an important area with the hotels, and convention center, and it would have a real impact on the area. A percentage of boats would not be able to clear the bridge, so a tunnel is ideal." Construction could begin within two years if the project gets the go-ahead. It will be early October before Shaw finds out if he has succeeded in his requests and 1992 before Florida would get money for construction. The Florida Department of Transportation (DOT) and its tunnel consultants were to meet with public officials and agencies in late June to discuss the beginning of the 17th Street study, according to DOT spokesperson Barbara Sarff. Additional meetings to obtain public input to the study findings are planned for this coming fall and spring, added Sarff.

The GFC is coordinating the project with Palm Beach County's Department of Environmental Resource Management (DERM). The idea is to create artificial reef systems which will encourage colonizers such as algae, along with micro and macro invertebrates with small forage fish. This in turn will provide the basis for attracting larger species to the reefs and thus give anglers concentrated areas to fish in. Ten sites have been selected for the deployment of the fish enhancement devices, located in five lakes - Lake Ida, Lake Osbome, Lake Eden, Airport Lake and Lake Clark. Twelve attractor devices or panels will be dropped at each quarter-acre site in an uneven pattern. Each panel has an area of 80 feet. Panels are composed of PVC frames filled with a unique substance called GeoWeb, a rubber-like material which will provide 4-inch cells which will allow space for habitat growth and protection for fish. Julie O'Connell, an environmentalist with DERM, stated, "These reefs were successfully tested in Florida's northern counties, and so we made the decision to go ahead with this structure for fish enhancement." Each reef site will be marked with a buoy designating that it is a fisheries enhancement area. The markers will alert fishermen to the presence of the reefs, which will be monitored by the Game and Fish Commission. The cost of the project is $20,000. DERM will purchase the materials and the GFC will put the enhancement devices together and deploy them. ZIMAR GALVANIC ANODES MADE OF PURE ZINC a LAST LONGER GOOD PRICE MADE IN USA 2090 S.W.71 TRR.

Palm Beach briefs Jupiter gets artificial reef The Department of Environmental Resource Management recently scuttled a 72-foot steel vessel off the shores of northern Palm Beach County as part of the artificial reef program. The ship, known as the "Ratican," joins other artificial reefs such as the "Esso Bonaire" and the "Miss Jenny" deployed in the same area. The cost of the reef deployment was $5,000 and was paid for by a grant from the Florida Department of Natural Resources and funds from Palm Beach County's Reef Enhancement and Endowment Fund. Lake Ida's shores to be revegetated Over 450 feet of shoreline north of Lake Ida's boat ramp is scheduled to be revegetated this September. The project is part of a county effort to revitalize lakes and other bodies of freshwater. A total of 1600 feet of Lake Ida's shoreline is scheduled for the vegetation upgrade. Boaters beware of sea turtles Boaters are urged to be cautious of sea turtles bobbing on or near offshore reefs during this year's turtle-nesting season. Several of the turtles have already been stranded due to collisions with boats or from entanglement in fish trap lines. In Palm Beach County, such strandings are the second leading cause of sea turtle deaths. Turtle nesting season runs from May through October. GEORGE E.

Carmen J. Lunetta, port director, has confirmed choice of the Dade Port after Port Everglades could not supply the required waterfront location. The Broward port had been the preliminary choice. The Dade location will be one of five sites nationally. MSRC is a non-profit organization funded by the oil industry. William Lay, external affairs manager, said the firm wants 15,000 square feet of office space and 85,000 square feet of warehouse. Trucks, barges, vessels and skimmers are expected to be domiciled in Miami along with 100 local workers still to be hired. The group already is in temporary residence at the SeaEscape terminal. Total five-year budget for the nationwide organization is funded at $825 million. In addition to Miami, four southeastern locations will have staff and equipment. They are: Jacksonville, Tampa, Savannah, and Wilmington, N.C., with another base at St. Croix, Virgin Islands. Regional centers are slated for New York/New Jersey, Lake Charles, LA, Port Hueneme, CA, and Seattle, WA. The Florida operation is responsible for the coast from the Tampa area south to the Keys and north on the Atlantic to North Carolina as well as Puerto Rico.

(AP) Officials of the BOC Challenge around-the-world solo yacht race said May 31 that they planned to end their next race in Britain and would invite a number of East Coast ports, including Fort Lauderdale, to compete for starting line honors. The statement represented a change for the race, which has been started and finished three times at Newport. "We need a port that wants to participate in the BOC Challenge as an enthusiastic partner in the event. The race, and its associated education and environmental programs, offer real opportunities for civic and public involvement," says Nigel Rowe of The BOC Group, sponsors of the race. "The BOC Challenge is now a major sporting adventure, attracting very considerable media attention around the world. It provides substantial and international promotion for all participating ports." A number of ports on the East Coast of the U.S., including Fort Lauderdale, were invited in June to tender for the role of 'start port' in competition with Newport, Rhode Island. The intervening stopover ports of Cape Town, Sydney and Punta del Este are likely to remain unchanged. About a half a dozen ports in southwest England and South Wales also would be invited next month to bid to be the finish line of the race. Race officials said they also would publish new draft rules for the race in July. They said rules changes would be made to enhance race safety by improving stability and seaworthiness of competing yachts and discouraging competitors from venturing too deeply new U.S. home port into the iceberg-strewn Southern Ocean. The next BOC Challenge is to begin in September 1994 and end in May 1995 at a port in England or Wales, the officials said. Whitbread race update By CLEVE JENNINGS Special to the Waterfront News The world's largest exporter of beer is throwing its weight behind the Whitbread Round the World Race. Heineken NV has announced it will sponsor the Leg Trophies for the WRTWR 93-94. The two brewery companies have been partners in the United Kingdom since 1961. As a global sponsor, Heineken's participation could open the door for a very exciting future for the race and will greatly increase media coverage worldwide. The Whitbread's return to Fort Lauderdale in 1994 is already impacting our community. As a result the Royal Cork Yacht Club, Ireland, has announced a major transatlantic race from Fort Lauderdale to Cork in May, 1993. There is also a proposed race from Puerto Sherry, Spain, to Fort Lauderdale in 1993. Next year we can expect to see many of the yachts participating in the Route of Discovery Race visiting south Florida. The BOC Challenge single-handed Round the World Race is looking at various ports on the east coast of the U.S. to host the role of "start port." Fort Lauderdale's Whitbread experience has the BOC race organizers looking at our city and we should receive a proposal from them in the very near future. How Do You Look?

Sailing July 1991 Waterfront News 11 I'm Judy wins Broward regatta By PETE ANDERSON Special to the Waterfront News Skipper Jim Durr and crew on his Olson 30 I'm Judy won top honors in their PHRF class at the Broward Sports Festival Sailing Regatta held in the ocean off Pompano Beach on June 8. Sailing in light air, Durr's 30-footer finished the 10-mile race in two hours, nine minutes and 14 seconds. Thirty four sailboats ranging from 20 to 44 feet in length participated in the three class race. Don Hightower finished first with Finesse, a Hunter 34, in the ARC 1 class, and Bob Kwass skippering his Pearson 40 Double Eagle, won the ARC 2 class. Considering the rainy and squally weather several days prior to the race day, the sun shone for the racers just long enough to complete the race and the after race cookout and awards presentation. Then the thunderstorms rolled in again. The winds were light southeasterly for the start, and then shifted to the northeast and freshened as most of the boats began their reach on the second leg. On the final leg, many of the boats hoisted their brightly-colored spinnakers which made for some exciting action on the way to the finish line. After the race, the sailors gathered at the Exchange Club Park next to the Intracoastal in Pompano Beach where a hearty cookout was in progress.

Stirling Road Hollywood, FL 33020 (305) 923-7690 SORC posts 1992 venue The Southern Ocean Racing Conference (SORC) has announced its 1992 Series will feature a slightly shortened schedule with a single overnight race as opposed to the two of prior years. "We're responding to what our participants say they want," said recently re-elected chairman Scott Piper, a long-time SORC competitor, "while still retaining a balance of closed course and point-to-point racing." The Series will open in St. Petersburg on Saturday, February 29, with two days of two-a-day triangles. The Series will resume on Florida's east coast on Friday, March 6, with two days of closed course racing, a day race, and conclude with the ovemighter across the Gulfstream out to Great Issac and return. The traditional St. Petersburg-Lauderdale event will reappear as a part of the Series in 1993. "By alternating these two fine events," Piper said, "we retain SORC's traditional ocean race role within a mix designed to attract participants to the challenge of both buoy and deep water racing." The 1992 Series, for the first time, will allow competitors a "throw out" race. With the initial two days of triangles scored as a single race, Piper points out those aiming toward a Series win can do the St. Pete event and, within the intervening time, easily join the resumption on the east coast. The Series is open to IMS and PHRF. For further information contact: Col.

Ocean Watch Foundation, a Fort Lauderdale-based environmental group, put on its third annual Reef Sweep. Starting from scratch in the living room of Deborah Meeks, a professional photographer, Ocean Watch has come to be respected in Florida as an organization that draws its strength from the actions and staying power of the concerned people involved - intelligent and inventive people who come from all walks of life, brought together by the common love they share for the welfare of the ocean. Three years ago, Deborah Meeks, or as her friends call her, D.J., dove off a boat with a handful of concerned divers collecting refuse from a local reef. Now, their Reef Sweep event has progressed to the point where caring SCUBA divers are crawling off beaches and jumping from boats over all of the 24 miles of coastline in Broward County. Making the event successful were many helpful volunteers. One such was computer whiz, SCUBA instructor and Ocean Watch member, Debra Bradford. She worked ceaselessly at her lap-top computer at the end of that day figuring out the totals, all kinds of totals. She reported that the number of divers has roughly doubledfrom last year's crop. The amount of trash taken from the ocean also doubled likewise, the amount of private and charter boats involved with the event. She laughs as she goes over the list of items being pulled up from the bottom. The stuff, she explains, seems to get more bizarre every year. This year's garbage grope brought up an airplane door, a bathroom sink, and of course a pair of G -string panties. Bradford couldn't advise who came up with that trophy. She felt it must have been a male warrior/diver-type. As in past years, the event was culminated with a huge party at Tugboat Annie's, a well-known dockside watering hole in Dania. There were over 900 divers and their friends who.camc to see the different types of garage that was pulled in. ;'/ There were awards given for different categories and amounts of garbage. Bradford said the most :-crowd-pleasing prize this year was a Gumby doll which placed number one in the most unusual category. This award went to diver Ann Douglas.

Ocean Watch Foundation has found out that besides collecting garbage from the ocean, much good will comes from this event each year. It is a time when the whole diving community comes together for the common good. There were dozens of dive shops, plus 19 different charter boats that had signed up to take divers out grabbing trash off the ocean floor. The charter boats had over 350 divers on board. Bradford said there were another 132 divers that signed up on 32 different private boats. Not to be outdone by boaters were the beach divers. Over 120 divers signed up at two different places on Broward County beaches to walk offshore and swim for trash. One of the beach locations was in north Hollywood. The other location, the Commercial Pier in Lauderdale- by-the-Sea., had 90 divers. One of those divers came back with a water heater. There were 1,503 cans and bottles, which, Bradford states, comes out to about 250 six packs, or 63 cases of beer. There were over 2 miles of rope, plus an even 1000 other miscellaneous items. In Bradford's other life, the life where she is paid a salary, she works at, what else, computers. Leslie Easterling, Ocean Watch Foundation board member, stated that part of the excitement for her was seeing the 98 volunteers that came out to help coordinate the event The volunteers helped by taking in the trash at different locations and signing up the divers who came out in droves to be a part of this growing event. They were distinguished by their white T-shirts smartly marked with the Ocean Watch emblem. Easterling said that the Reef Sweep has become a community event. Many of the volunteers came from outside of the diving industry, which shows a community concern for the ocean. Although everyone had fun, the serious side of their mission was made painfully aware to the divers by the miles of monofilament fishing line dragged off the ocean floor. This line tends to trap and kill the: endangered, air-breathing sea turtles. Another killer of sea turtles is the plastic that they cat. Turtles cat plastic thinking it is jellyfish. Often, after eating the plastic, the turtles die because they are unable to digest it. Much of the contents in the 334 bags of trash brought up by this year's Reef Sweep was plastic. The diving industry seems to have progressed to the point where some environmentally concerned dive instructors are beginning to teach their students to always have a goodie bag with them on their dives.

GUNNAR WATSON aaa~pa I This way, even if they are just looking at the scenery of fish and reef, they can always bring back some of the trash some people seem destined to throw into the sea. Then there is another way to look at this event, and that is by being aware of Fort Lauderdale's colorful history. There are still the five missing Navy TBM torpedo planes, missing since December 5th, 1945, when they took off from the Naval Air Base in Fort Lauderdale and flew into history. Then there is the legendary lost German U-boat submarine reported to be out there somewhere. Those of us who were children in Fort Lauderdale during and after World War II, grew up listening to tales of the mystery German submarine that prowled the waters off our coast during that war and still might be out there. It would be interesting if, one year during the search for trash, a neophyte diver accidentally found a torpedo plane or the periscope from a German submarine. The party at Tugboat Annie's that year might take on a Whole different meaning. Possibly environmentalists, archaeologists, historians and trash-collecting divers might find they have a whole lot more in common than they might have at first thought. Old sea captains and experienced divers familiar with the interesting waters.off Fort"Lauderdale know that anything is possible. After all, when you don that mask, put on those fins and tank, then slide underwater, you're instantly there you're out there somewhere in the Bermuda Triangle. And if you're smart, you'll be looking.., always looking. See you underwater. URIwR Classic Yacht IMRON Refinishing, Inc.

The 800 MARINE TECHNICAL CENTER 800 3:d Griffin Road Dania, FL 33004 (305) 921-0800 - --I 16 W' waterfront News July 1991 Commerce Dade distributor buys Lauderdale boat dealership By HANK JONES Waterfront News writer Allied Marine, Dade County distributor for Hatteras Yachts, has acquired Hatteras of Lauderdale for an undisclosed amount. Allied is the property of SeaRock Inc., Little Rock- based firm whose chairman, Winthrop Rockefeller, is the great-grandson of John D. Rockefeller and the son of a former governor of Arkansas. Hatteras of Lauderdale was owned by Herb Postma, who also is president of Westship Inc., Fort Lauderdale dealer of custom-built fiberglass yachts. In a statement, Rockefeller said, "Owning one of the world's premier dealerships representing the Hatteras line is a great opportunity." Postma has said acquisition by Allied would give customers "incomparable service." The new firm becomes the largest Hatteras dealership in the world. Stuart Hatteras in Martin County currently is the world's largest volume Hatteras dealer, a title until recently held by Hatteras of Lauderdale. Hatteras yachts, built in North Carolina, are from 38 to 125 feet long and over the years Lauderdale Hatteras has been a center for owners who have chosen to have existing boats lengthened by having the hull extended at the firm's New River yard. No unemployment is expected at either dealership as a result of the acquisition. Hatteras of Lauderdale has been for sale since the fall of 1990, and for the year had sales of $50 million. In recent weeks inventory has been reduced by about $20 million but a couple of dozen boats carrying a price tag of more than $20 million are unsold.

For three years, the Driftwood, a 60-foot motor yacht, explored more than 25,000 miles of waterways to rediscover the spirit and substance of North America through the people who live, work and play along its shores. The third episode, "Too Much, Too Fast," (July 21), focuses on Florida from the Panhandle to the Everglades, and includes an interview with environmentalist Marjorie Stoneman Douglas, who has devoted her life to saving her "river of grass." Adding to the local color is the captain of the Driftwood, Richard Bristol of Fort Lauderdale, and one of the film makers, Thomas Miller, a graduate of the University of Florida. In addition, episode five (August 4) featuring the South Atlantic, is a journey from Fort Lauderdale to the Chesapeake Bay. The inspiration for the voyage came through tragedy. Promising animator and award-winning Martin Fischer was killed in an auto accident. His father, Paul Fischer, remembering an idea they had shared, started the project as a memorial to his son.
