Outcome awaited on luxury

High hopes
permeate industry
By BETH FEINSTEIN-BARTL
Waterfront News Writer
Now that the luxury boat tax has sailed
off into the sunset, the showrooms are packed
with people looking to buy the yacht of their
dreams.
Well, not exactly.
Several local dealers who specialize in
selling the pricey vessels say they still have
a long way to go before the industry is in
ship-shape condition again. But with the
repeal of the tax in August, they remain
optimistic that the market will eventually

take an upswing.
After all, it's been down for so long, up
is the only way it can go. Yet, how far sales
will climb is anyone's guess, they say.
"There's no denying that an enormous
amount of damage has been done and it's
going to take many, many years before things
get back to normal," said Charlie Walsh,
owner of Walsh Yachts in Fort Lauderdale.
Originally enacted in January, 1991, the
tax was considered by elected leaders as a
means to cull revenue from the rich. Instead,
it helped drive the marine industry into a
recession.
Across the country, sales dropped 80
percent during the tax's firstyearand 30,000
people, mostly blue collar workers, lost their

y tax repeal
jobs, according to the Chicago-based Na-
tional Marine Manufacturers Association.
In Florida, which is the number one boat
building state in the nation, the effect was
especially hard hitting, said Greg Proteau, an
NMMA spokesman.
The association is hoping that the Tampa-
based Florida State Boat and Sports Show,
which was held in September, will represent
one of the first steps toward recovery.
"Right now, one of our top priorities is to
make certain the public is informed that this
regressive tax is no longer an obstacle to boat
ownership," said Jeff Napier, NMMA presi-
dent.

'Smooth sailing' predicted for annual Columbus Day Regatta

600 boat of Sand and Elliott keys. Jet and water skis boats. Another2,000 crafts cruise to and from during the peak hours of the regatta on both

cut-off may not

be imposed

By HANK JONES
Waterfront News Writer
After a one-year hiatus compliments of
Hurricane Andrew, the Columbus Day Re-
gatta is back.
The race down Biscayne Bay to Elliot
Key is set forOct. 9, with an overnight layover
before the return to the starting point, accord-
ing to William C. Caterham, regatta chairman.
Classifications coverjust about every sail
on the water, from PHRF craft rigged for
racing to dowagers, gunkholers and any hull
safe to sail. In the event's early days, even a
Dutch-design leeboarder made her stately way
over the course.
This year, the customary 600 boat cap
may not be imposed because it's still uncertain
how many entries will come to the starting
line, race officials say.
The entry fee is set at $60 through the Oct.
2 deadline. Should bad weather intervene, an
alternate Oct. 16-17 date has been set.
Programs with race instructions and entry
forms may be obtained through most local
yacht clubs, marinas, marina stores and
sailmakers in Dade, Broward and Palm Beach
counties.
Through the years, the race has grown to
include more restrictions, such as the banning
of water balloons and "funnelators."
In addition, a no wake zone has been
designated for the entire anchorage area west

along with high speed power boats also are
banned from the area.
S And the National Park Service may bar
the regatta from its waters. Over the years,
there's been an increasing tendency to litter
the water and the adjacent keys until park
workers have been hard-pressed to keep up
with management of the garbage. Failure to
maintain the area may mean the end of park
waters as an anchorage.
Since the race started in 1954 with only 24
entries, it's grown to include more than 700

Elliot Key.
The initial class starts at 9 a.m. (start
sequence initiated at 8:30 p.m.), and for the
return leg the start is delayed for a 9:30 a.m.
start sequence with the first boats across the
line at 10 a.m.
The popular weekend cruise attracts its
share of spectators who also overnight offElliot
Key in Biscayne National Park's waters.
For safety of both the competing boats
and spectators, traffic patterns have been es-
tablished through East Featherbed channel

- b--

race days. Yachts will travel one-way south on
Saturday and one-way north on Sunday dur-
ing the race.
Those without a boat can also book space
aboard a sightseeing boat from Biscayne Na-
tional Park.
Awards will be presented to the top five
finishers in each class. The Coral Reef Yacht
Club will host the event set for Oct. 16, with a
cookout and entertainment.

Outcome awaited on luxury tax repeal

continued from page 1
boat sales are organizers of the Fort Lauder-
dale Boat Show, which starts in late October.
"The dealers are obviously very happy
about the repeal, however we'll have a better
feel regarding its impact after the show,"
said Frank Herhold, executive director of the
Marine Industries Association of South
Florida.
For those who don't think the marine
industry is important to Florida, one look at
the statistics may change the minds of doubt-
ers, he said.
Statewide, the marine industry's eco-
nomic impact amounts to $3.5 billion. Of the
boating-related businesses in Florida, nearly
46 percent are concentrated in Dade, Broward
and Palm Beach counties, said Herhold, quot-
ing a 1987 study commissioned by his group.
"The bottom line is that we have a big job
ahead of us to re-build this industry," said
Herhold, who estimated that 8,000 workers
were laid off around the state because of the
tax.
The Allied Marine Group were among
area businesses that were hard hit by the

luxury tax. Of the fouroffices in South Florida,
low sales forced company officials to lay off
about 35 percent of its salaried and hourly
help, said Charles Smith, chief financial of-
ficer.
At the Black Fin Yacht Corporation in
Fort Lauderdale, 60 employees lost theirjobs,
said Carl Herndon, owner.
But there have betn some signs of revival.
Orlando Hernandez, a manager at Ocean
Harbor Marine in Miami, said he has noticed
a small increase in big boat sales since the
repeal.
"Of course we lost some customers and
we don't know if they will ever come back,
but I think there will be better times ahead,"
Hernandez said.
At Allied Marine, six of its laid off work-
ers were recently rehired and more call backs
are expected, Herndon said.
"At least there is light at the end of the
tunnel, whereas before everything was com-
pletely dark," he said.
Although the luxury tax is no more, deal-
ers aren't totally off the hook yet. They still
have to contend with other obstacles, namely

new tax increases for upper-income families
and a 20-cent diesel fuel tax aimed at recre-
ational boaters, as outlined in President
Clinton's economic stimulus package.
"The wealthy are our customers and any-
thing that targets them is not going to stimu-
late spending," Walsh said. "People may re-
sent these new taxes. They don'twant to putthe

money back into the government's pockets."
Still, Walsh and many other industry
honchos don't expect the new taxes to be as
troubling as the old one.
"The luxury tax took aim at a single indus-
try," Herhold said. "The effects of this new
tax package will probably be negligible be-
cause boats aren't the sole target."

Charting a smooth

course for boat

show shopping
By HENRY BREHM
Special to the Waterfront News
NEW YORK CITY If you're a serious buyer just
waiting for the start of the Fort Lauderdale Boat Show, now
is the time to plan a shopping tragedy.
*Dress for comfort. Wear footwear such as boat shoes
or sneakers. There's a lot to see and do at the show and a fair
amount of walking.
*Get there early. With hundreds of boats to board and
compare, it pays to be first in line.
*Get a floor plan of the show. It is found in the show
directory, which is available for free at the entrance.
Spend a few minutes looking over the floor plan and list
of exhibitors. Determine which displays you would most
like to see and plot a course that makes the most efficient
use of your time. While you are traveling between way
points, make note of displays that catch your interest and
return to these later.
*Bring a pad and pen for taking notes to compare prices
and features. Develop a rating system based on the features
you consider most important. After narrowing down your
choices, revisit your favorites.
*Bring a knapsack or strong carry bag for the many
brochures you'll want to collect.
*Bring a small camera. While photos of boats are
usually available in their sales brochures, you may want to
shoot specific features not included in their publications.
*Take periodic breaks. Find a place to sit, have a drink
and something to eat. Look over your material and update
your notes.
*Attend on a weekday, in the morning if possible, when
crowds are lightest.
*Don't forget the booth exhibits. Many offer a wide
variety of marine accessories, financial services and insur-
ance.
*Bargains can be found from dealers who are clearing
their existing inventory. Competition is stif, so the best
prices can be found. If necessary, plan on coming back the
next day to close the deal.

Rapping noise inside mast leaves boater puzzled

... By AL GRODSKY
Marine Mechanic

: -Ire-
member reading in
S your column about a
boater who had a
S problem with his
^' ^ ^ stays and halyards
Slapping at night,
S' disturbing everyone
-- ; in his marina. I have
a similar headache
and although I have tied off all loose lines and
stays, there's still a rapping noise coming
from inside my mast. It sounds like there's
cables or tubing loose inside the mast. How
can I 0uiet this without taking the mast down?
A: There are a few ways to stop this
interior noise. Try drilling a small hole in the
mast about halfway up, using a stainless or
aluminum wire to hold the cable inside and

secure it to the mast (a hole of this size will not
cause a problem with the mast).
I've also had success with a foam can that
has the expanding flotation in it. You can
spray this foam into the mast, where it will
expand and prevent the lines of wiring from
rattling. It is an added plus that will make the
mast full of flotation if the boat should go over.

Q: have a twin engine with a weird
starting problem. One engine works fine. But
the other engine is temperamental. Sometimes
the starter will spin a few times before turning
over. Sometimes you can shut it off and it will
start right away. Other times it goes through
the same procedure with no spinning, growl-
ing or anything. Very annoying and I never
know when this can happen.
A: You have a bad or rusted bendix
drive on your starter. Your starter has been
soaked and the starter drive has rusted on the
spline or hung up on the shaft. The starter has

to be removed, cleaned, and the drive replaced
or overhauled. Do the whole job all at once, as
the starter is not the easiest to remove and
replace. Check the flywheel teeth when you
remove the starter.

Q: Recently, while out on my boat,
the rudder cable broke and I was not able to
steer at all. Ihad to call for help and was towed
back. Is there any way I could have rigged my
rudder?
A: As long as the rudder blade is
intact, you can put a line or rope around it and
pull it from side to side. One line to pull left.
One line to pull right. With an I/O, (inboard
outboard) you can tie to the outdrive and pull
either side for steering. Don't speed.
It is much easier with two people at th6
stern. If you lose your rudder blade com-
pletely, you can slowly turn your boat with a
bucket or sea anchor on the portside to head
left or shift the bucket or sea anchor to star-

Hillsboro Inlet
To the Editor:
With winter approaching, we at the
Hillsboro Inlet Improvement and Maintenance
District would like to remind boaters of the
hazards of navigating the Hillsboro Inlet, with
its constantly shifting offshore shoal sand
bars.
Hillsboro Inlet is located between the
towns of Hillsboro Beach and Pompano Beach
in the northeast part of Broward County, pro-
viding ocean access from the Intracoastal

authority urges
waterway. The inlet is under the operating
control of a board of seven volunteer commis-
sioners, with business and boating interest and
experience.
I am pleased to advise the Hillsboro Inlet
Commission adopted a long range manage-
ment plan to deepen the offshore channel to -
20' MLW and increase the cubic yards of sand
trapped and by-passed to the beach on the
south side.
Ordinary three to four foot winter waves

boating safety
and swells,quickly halve the available water
depth in the channel. Misconceptions arise
when the public thinks ofa dredge as a vacuum
cleaner. Winter season offshore water condi-
tions also limit deployment of the cutter head
suction dredge more than a few days a month,
during the heavy tourist use season.
It is important boaters be kept informed.

Frank Rysavy,
Chairman of Hillsboro Inlet District.

BADE Baislands being trashed

Biscayne Bay islands being trashed from misuse

Restoration

project to help

clear unwanted

vegetation

By W.H. SLATTERY
Special to the Waterfront News
Efforts to restore a string of islands on
Biscayne Bay are being thwarted by a growing
problem: trash.
Boaters cruising to the islands for
recreation are leaving their debris behind, say
Dade County officials and pleasure boaters.
"The island is becoming so filthy, there
are no bathrooms there and trash is being left
by people," said Charles Yatman, a member
of the U.S. Canoe and Kayak Team, who
regularly kayaks on the bay.
Often, when one boater leaves trash
behind, others follow the example, officials
say.

In addition, illegal squatters appear to be
living on Teacher's island, located in the
northern end of they bay, Yatman said.
The 16 islands that dot the northern part
of the bay draw boaters, kayakers and
canoeists. They were originally created about
30 years ago when the U.S. Army Corp. of
Engineers dredged the bay to clear a
commercial freighter channel.

'The islands should be
promoted and local clubs
should use them.'
-Joe Ludic,
former mayor of North
Miami Beach.
Recently, $1 million in county and state
funding was allocated for clearing five of the
16 islands of exotic vegetation as part of the
Biscayne Bay Island Restoration Project.
Other islands received new plantings such as
mangroves and native trees.
In recent years, the islands have been used
for passive recreation, such as picnics, bird
watching and stopovers during day trips.

To control trash, Milano is encouraging
local groups to start an adopt-an-island
program, where boaters would regularly
remove unwanted vegetation and trash.
"We want boaters to pack their trash out
with them, not leave it on the island," Milano
said.
Joe Ludick, former mayor of North
Miami Beach, has a vested interest in seeing
the fledgling islands protected for future
generations. Ludick, who helped Dade County
officials research the island's original names,
says they're a natural attraction for boaters and
nature lovers seeking an isolated spot, but
who don't want to travel a long distance to get
there.
"The islands should be promoted and
local clubs should use them," he said.
Quayside Island currently offers shelters,
a volley ball court, boat dock and picnic area
while Christo Island near 79th Street offers
dockage and picnic areas.
Despite the problems, Milano said he is
philosophical about their future. "We are
planting the seed and waiting for it to grow."

Commission tables proposal requiring pump-out stations

Law could

prove costly

By BETH FEINSTEIN-BARTL
Waterfront News Writer -
FORT LAUDERDALE A proposed or-
dinance requiring dock owners to provide
pump-out units and on-shore bathrooms for
their live-aboard tenants has been put on hold
by Fort Lauderdale City Commissioners.
At a meeting held on Sept. 21, commis-
sioners voted to table the issue until Novem-
ber after it became apparent that several ques-
tions they had could not be answered by city
staff.
The proposal calls for all dock owners,
including private and city-owned marinas, to
provide sanitation hook-ups to boats with hold-
ing tanks. Landlords renting to vessels with-
out tanks must provide on-shore restrooms.
Commissioners originally proposed the
ordinance to help stem pollution in the city's
waterways after they read reports showing a
rise in bacteria.
But the solution is expensive. Most af-
fected will be landlords in Hendricks Isle and Isle
of Venice, where live-aboards are common.
Sanitation systems cost between $1,500

and $4,500, according to city estimates. On-
shore bathrooms would cost over $5,000.
In addition, dock owners would have to
shell out another $2,000 for city sewer hook-
ups and anywhere from $25 to $200 for build-
ing permits, according to city staff.
Odair Castro, who owns a duplex with
three slips on Hendricks Isle, said the financial
burden should be placed on boaters, not the
landlords.
"This is an important source of income
for me," he said. "I need that money. That's
why I bought the property. I'm not here just
because I'm rich."
Peter Neufeldt, a board member on the
Hendricks Isle-Isle of Venice Property Own-
ers Association, said residents in his commu-
nity want to see water pollution curtailed, but
to single out live-aboards and storage boats is
nonsense.
"Boat owners are cleaner than what the
commissioners think," said Frank Sobchak,
an Isle of Venice property owner. "They don't
want to live in a toilet."
Commissioners chose to table the ordi-
nance after Mayor Jim Naugle asked whether
property owners would be required to provide
sewage facilities for storage boats.
City attorney Dennis Lyles said he inter-
preted the proposed law as requiring marine

sanitation systems if the boat was vacant or
occupied.
Naugle disagreed, saying storage boats
should be exempt from the rule.
"If the dock owner doesn't want to spend
the extra money to provide pump-out units or
bathrooms for live-aboards, they should be
given a choice," Naugle said. "We have
people's livelihoods at stake."
Carl Landau, another Hendricks Isleprop-
erty owner, said he's glad the city commission
postponed voting on the ordinance.
"From what I heard inside that meeting,
neither they or their staff seem to know what
they're talking about," he said. "It would have
been a travesty if they had proceeded further."
The proposed law would also have per-

mitted visiting boats without holding tanks to
dock at Cooley's Landing municipal marina
where restrooms already exist. Under current
city code, such boats have 15 days after in-
spection of their vessels to install sanitation
equipment or risk eviction from city docks,
said Jamie Hart, supervisor of marine facili-
ties for the city.
City commissioners will discuss the pro-
posed ordinance again on Nov. 10.
"I hope we can iron this out during our
workshop meetings," said City Commissioner
John Aurelius. "Right now, we're not getting
any direction from city staff. My advice to the
people in Hendricks Isle and Isle of Venice is
to stay tuned."

Palm Beach and
By CRAIG LUSTGARTEN
Waterfront News Writer
PALM BEACH-Because of concerns that large com-
mercial vessels will run aground on their way to the Port of
Palm Beach, port commissioners are trying to back out of an
agreement with the town which prevents the Lake Worth Inlet
from being dredged until after turtle nesting season.
But dredging must be performed immediately because
running aground could prove costly for customers of the port
and cause environmental damage, said Port Commission
Chairman George Hoff at a recent Palm Beach Countywide
Beaches and Shores Council meeting.
"Are we going to tell businesses that we have to shut the
port down because we can't put sand on the beach?" said Hoff
who complained that the town fails to treat the port as a
business.
In a comprise reached last spring, 120,000 cubic yards of
sand are scheduled to be placed on the shore of Palm Beach
after turtle nesting season ends in October. Last June, 40,000
cubic yards of sand were removed from the inlet and placed in
waters offshore because of environmental restrictions.
But if dredging begins before Oct. 15, the last day of turtle
nesting season, only the port will benefit, said Peter Elwell,
Palm Beach assistant town manager.

Inlet district refuses

to fall for sand trap

BOYNTON BEACH Members of the South Lake
Worth Inlet District Commission have told Palm Beach
County commissioners and county environmental offi-
cials that they will not take part in a cost-sharing program
to dredge the Boynton Beach Inlet sand trap.
County environmental officials said sand from the
trap could be used to combat erosion to area beaches.

Town hires firm to

perform inlet study

PALM BEACH The town has.hired a coastal
consulting firm to produce a report on managing the Lake
Worth Inlet.
The. plan is designed to address the discrepancy
between the amount of sand reaching the area. Based on
data gathered in the report, specific proposals will be
developed to remedy the sand deficit.

port battle over dredging control

"I think it's clear that not only the town but also the
Beaches and Shores membership would be extremely con-
cerned if the compromise which was agreed to last spring was
now abandoned."
So far, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is siding with
the town and is refusing to dredge before the agreed upon time.

ment," said Richard Bonner, deputy district engineer. "Inlets
generally aggravate erosion to the downdrift beaches and so we
try to bypass as much sand as possible."

project this winter.

Overcoming physical barriers through sailing

By BETH FEINSTEIN-BARTL
Waterfront News Writer
Randy Crutchfield loves the feeling of freedom he gets on
the water.
"Out there, I'm in complete control," said Crutchfield, 31,
manager of the access learning center at Miami-Dade Commu-
nity College in downtown Miami.
A quadriplegic since 1979, Crutchfield and others with
physical disabilities probably wouldn'thave the opportunity to
enjoy the sport of sailing without help from Shake-A-Leg.
The national, non-profit organization established a South
Florida chapter in 1991. The group offers several boating
programs at a Coconut Grove marina using specially-outfitted
crafts for those with spinal cord injuries and neurological
disorders, said Gerry Atchison, Shake-A-Leg's chief operat-
ing officer.
"What this organization does, in many cases, is give
people a second chance at being independent," he said. "People
who were once able-bodied and active can realize that they
don't have to curtail their activities just because of their
disabilities."
Said Crutchfield, who was recently voted commodore of
Shake-A-Leg's Sail Club: "They allow you to leave your cares
with your wheelchairr on the dock."
Later this month, two sailboats belonging to the group -

one of which will be captainedby Crutchfield will be among
600 entries competing in, the 39th Annual Columbus Day
Regatta, scheduled for Oct. 9 and 10 on Biscayne Bay.
Shake-A-Leg's participation in the regatta will mark the
second time the organization has been represented in the race.
The first was in 1991. The group was going to enter the 1992
race, but it was canceled due to Hurricane Andrew, Atchison
said.
"Being in the regatta is great publicity for our programs,"
Atchison said. "There are an estimated 340,000 disabled
people in South Florida and right now we're just barely able to
scratch the surface in reaching all of them."
Crutchfield will be racing in the group's 22-foot sailboat,
named Second Chance. He will be joined by a crew of three:
Glenn Thompson and Tim Stephens, both able-bodied and
from Miami, and Richard Stanovich, a paraplegic who is also
a Miami resident.
The sailboat he'll be using in the regatta is outfitted with
several adaptations for the special needs of Shake-A-Leg's
members.
"Basically, it's designed so that you can drive from the
cockpit," Crutchfield said.
Crutchfield said he hopes able-bodied people at the Co-
lumbus Day Regatta-both competitors and spectators-can

learn something from watching him and his crew.
"I still can't believe the amazed looks I get from people
when I tell them I sail," said Crutchfield, who recently came in
second place during aBiscayne Bay YachtRacing Association
Regatta in August.
"I want them to know that disabled people shouldn't be
treated with kid gloves," he said. "We're not breakable. We can
compete with able-bodied people on an equal level."
Juan Garcia, a quadriplegic who will be racing a Shake-A-
Leg-sponsored craft in the Columbus Day Regatta, said he's

digging the canal in 1880 under the direction
of Ferdinand de Lesseps, the French diplomat

canal.
After 20 years battling jungle and dis-

was brought to a halt, declared a financial ruin.
In 1903, the United States agreed to com-

Exotic fish thrive in Florida's fresh water canals

Researcher

studies affects

on native

species

By HANK JONES
Waterfront News Writer
Among south Florida's mny transplanted
residents are those that are waterborn.
We're talking exotic fish here, refuges
from unwanted aquariums orvictims of flooded
fish farms.
Despite some dire predictions, for the
most part the fish do not present a threat to
native species, says Paul L. Shafland, director
of a non-native fish laboratory run by the
state's Game and Fresh Water Fish
Commission.
The 23-acre lab is tucked away in a corer
of Boca Raton's airport, all but hidden from
public view.
"Man's alteration of South Florida's natu-

ral waterflow pattern caused by the construc-
tion of an extensive canal system has created
hospitable environments for the establishment
of many exotic fish, Shafland says.
Among the lab's equipment are 15 hold-
ing ponds where fish are held for study, and a
modest aquarium where visitors view some of
Florida's immigrants and fresh water fish.
The task of the laboratory staff is to docu-
ment exotics in Florida waters and to study
how the newcomer interacts with native fish
sharing the same waters. Researchers also
take a census of fish populations.
"In doing that, we discover other things,"
Shafland said.
Prohibited in Florida are species such as
piranha, electric eels and all tilapias. Four
species oftilapia and Chinese carps are on the
"restricted list," Shafland said.
A quarter-century ago, it was thought that
walking catfish would drive out more desir-
able fish, like the large mouth bass. The catfish
used their fins to waddle across the country-
side from waterway to waterway wet
weather encourages migrations. But research-
ers discovered that they do not reduce larger
native gamefish species.
Non-native fish sometimes wind up in

Florida waters because of the flooding of fish
ponds where exotics are legally bred. Also
contributing to exotic populations are aqarium
owners who tire of their hobby and release
their unwanted fish often illegally into
local waters where they multiply.
But some fish are sought out and encour-
aged, like the peacock bass. Today, 20 species
have been established and are reproducing in
the state.
"Spotted tilapia are very successful,"
Shafland said. "Nile perch, or blue perch, also
are well-established, though more common in
central Florida.
"Peter's fish, also a tilapia, is so-named
because it reputedly originated in the Sea of
Galilee, and was taken by the Bible's St. Peter
in Biblical times."
Oscars, black acara and firemouth also
are here.
"Mayan Cichlids are present and are pre-
dicted to become very abundant," Shafland
said, designating a target for future genera-
tions.
Shafland's studies the fish to determine
how many eggs are laid during spawning
season, at what speed the fish matures and

population.
Fish are studied by introducing an electric
shock to the water. Stunned fish are recovered,
studied, marked and returned to the water.
Of particular interest to Shafland is the
status offish in Florida's growing urban areas.
Exotics are so abundant in Dade County
that they currently dominate the fish commu-
nities of major canal systems.
"The newest fish we found that we know
is reproducing here is the yellow belly cichlid,
found in one canal in Broward county,"
Shafland said.
"Urban freshwater fishing opportunities
in Dade County are largely limited to man-
made canals, and largemouth bass is the pre-
mier sportfish/predator in these systems,"
Shafland said.
Freshwater fishing is a major hobby, an
important tourist attraction and a vital com-
mercial enterprise.
Shafland reported that 150 to 300 man
hours of fishing per acre per year is reported in
South Florida.
That calls for a sustaining fish population
to satisfy the sports and dining appetites of
anglers.

Chocolate crepe a winner at affordable French cafe
Chocolate crepe a winner at affordable French cafe

By JENNIFER HEIT-ZIEGLER
Waterfront News Writer
The decor is French country, embellished
with lots of small, inviting touches that you
take in slowly. Consider this a good sign, a
prelude to a promising dinner at the Sage.
Pastel-toned walls and matching table linen,
herbs packed in large glass jars on shelves all
cook up images of a cozy country kitchen.
And although it would be a stretch to dine al
fresco, (the view being auto-clogged North
Federal Highway) management has strategi-
cally placed tables in front of the restaurant's
entrance, a welcoming lure.
Rave reviews from reliable friends drew
us to this unassuming Fort Lauderdale shop-
ping plaza. They were not wrong. Our only
disappointment is that we missed a lot of great
meals during the two years it took us to pay
this first visit.
Tables are nearly always filled, mainly
on the power of word-of-mouth, so we were
told by a very knowledgeable waiter who took
great pains to describe several menu selec-
tions
First, we snacked on a basket of bread
crisps served with a dip born from both black
and green olives, plenty of garlic and olive oil.
It was a speciality much more appealing -
and interesting than a mound of fattening

butter.
It's obvious from the start that the Sage's
management takes pride in what they do. This
was proven in the prompt service, the presen-
tation of food, the server's helpful and equally
polite demeanor.
And it's all offered at a reasonable price.
Menu listings include coq au vin ($7.95), beef
Bourguigon ($8.95), a variety of crepes ($4.95
to $7.75) prepared with different combina-
tions of chicken, brie cheese, spinach, shrimp,
sausage and mushrooms.
Diners will also find grilled duck with
apples and pears (rumored to be wonderful at
$10.95), seafood stew ($9.95), Coquilles St.
Jacques en Croute ($8.95 or bay scallops in
puff pastry with a cream sauce; or steamed
mussels with herbs ($7.95).
Salads, by the way, come al la carte -
tomatoes with basil and onions ($3.50) or a
simple tossed version with only lettuce ($2.95).
Heartier salads would be more likely to be
ordered as a main luncheon course. Yes, the
Sage is open for lunch with several specials
offered.
But we'll stick to dinner, which we started
with a soft shell crab appetizer ($8) served
with a fine coat of breading and topped with a
lively brown ginger sauce.
Among the dinner specials that night

were baked chicken breastmedallions wrapped
with ham and Swiss cheese and covered with
a mushroom sauce ($11), and snapper baked
in parchment paper ($13). Bypassing the
menu's standard items, we opted for the en-
trees described above and once more, we were
not disappointed.
The snapper was moist and well sea-
soned, served with roasted red potatoes and
fresh vegetables. The chicken was equally
good, breaded with a light hand.
Those who respect dessert can not leave
without sampling the chocolate-spiked crepe
($3.75) piled high with fresh raspberries and
whipped cream, with a stripe of chocolate
swept across the top. An apple pie al mode
was also considered good, but could not com-

Baking Bahamian bread: A feat worth perfecting
By Nancy Lyons
Waterfront News Food Writer
After spending months in the Caribbean, 1 cup whole wheat flour. After the first rising, punch down and Other options
After spending months in the Caribbean,
I he f m t d a 1 Tbsp. yeast (the packages of yeast you spread dough out flat, then roll jelly roll To make white bread, use 3 1/2 cups white

. important, so empty them out into a container bread pan. You can also bake wonderful breakfast

Producing an excellent loaf is a feat not to
be overlooked. But novices shouldn't be afraid
to try this Bahamian version, which is a much
simpler process than normal bread-making.
The following tips are a must.
*Measure all ingredients carefully. None
of a pinch of that or a pinch of this. Being
precise is a must. For example, remember to
level off flour after it's poured with a metal
spatula.
*Kneed for at least 10 minutes, sprinkling
no more than 1/2 cup flour as you work.
*Very important: Bake the bread on the
bottom rack of your oven.
*The trick of this bread is adding the yeast
to the flour and not dissolving it in hot milk or
water, which if too hot, will kill the yeast.
The rest is quite simple. Don't give up, for
it took me a while even with a native showing
me step by step. By my third loaf, I was a pro!
(sort of).
Also, the aromas of this bread baking in
your oven not to mention the reward of
slicing into your first loaf- is worth every bit
of effort. So relax and have fun.

Whole Wheat Bread
2 cups white flour (use a good bread flour,
Robin Hood, for example, or a nice light
flour).

and then measure).
2 to 4 Tbsp. sugar (I use 4).
I Tbsp. salt.

Place all of above in food processor and
pulse once or twice.
Then add:
1 cup hot milk (very hot so it burns your
finger).
I egg.
Knead dough in bowl and turn to coat with
oil. Now cover with plastic wrap and let rise
for about 45 minutes in a warm, draft free
place. I use my oven, setting the dial to warm'
for about five minutes, and turning it off
before placing the dough inside.

If your microwave is large enough, you
can switch the dough there for the second
rising, since at that time you'll be preheating

your main oven to 350 degrees for the baking
process.
Heat four cups of water in a large Pyrex
dish (this will heat up the micro for the second
rising) and place dough alongside water. Let
rise inside microwave about 30 to 35 minutes
uncovered. The first time I covered the pan,
but the loaf dropped and I had to rise it again.
After second rising, remove dough care-
fully, and place in 350-degree preheated oven
25 to 30 minutes. Brcad will sound hollow
when tapped on top.

sweet rolls out of the dough. Prepare bread as
shown above. After the first rising, roll into
circle. Melt 6 to 8 Tbsp. cinnamon, 2 Tbsp.
sugar, 2 Tbsp. butter and sprinkle all ingredi-
ents together. Roll up in jelly roll fashion and
cut into approximately two-inch thick rolls
(use dental floss or thread to cut through very
neatly) and spread with following combined
mixture:
1/2 package cream cheese
1 egg yolk
3 Tbsp. sugar
I tsp. vanilla
1/2 cup chopped nuts
Place in pan so sides of dough are touch-
ing each other. Bake at 350 for 15 to 18
minutes. Sprinkle with confections sugar if
desired.

Did you know...
... If you're having trouble whipping
cream, add a few drops of lemon juice.
...add 1 tsp. unflavored gelatin before
whipping cream to prevent it from becom-
ing thin.
...to keep oil from spattering when fry-
ing, add a pinch of salt.
...to keep food from absorbing too much
oil when frying, add a few drops of white
vinegar.

Marine flea markets flourish

in Broward

Two major marine flea markets are com-
ing to Broward this fall.
The Marina Mile Association, a group of
businesses located along State Road 84 in Fort
Lauderdale, will hold its first swap shop Oct.
1-3. Producers of the long-running Dania
Marine Flea Markethelped organize the event.
Hours run from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Friday and
Saturday, and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sunday.
Admission is $5.
Over six acres at the Marina Bay Resort
will be donated to the show, said organizer Al
Behrendt, who came up with the idea of sell-

ing marine goods in an open market in 1979.
The concept proved a winner with manufac-
turers, dealers and boaters, who gathered to
sell their accumulated wares. Marina Bay is
located on State Road 84, just west of 1-95.
Later this month "garage sale" buffs can
also check out the Lighthouse Point Nautical
Flea Market, which benefits boating-related
projects at Fletcher Pram Fleet Park.
The event will be held Oct. 23-24 at Dan
WittPark, 4521 NE 22 Ave., Lighthouse Point.
Gates open at 9 a.m. both days.

U.S. Women's Challenge embarks on Whitbread race

By ANDY NEWMAN
Special to the Waterfront News
Late last month woman sailors were mak-
ing final preparations to embark on a grueling
33,000-mile, nine-month-long, global sailing
race against vessels piloted by all-men crews.
On Sept. 25, the U.S. Women's Challenge
left Southampton, England, one of 16 sailing
yachts representing 13
countries in the 'Even th
Whitbread Round the reasonable
World Race.
The six-leg route wasn't my i

in Uruguay, Australia, Nan
New Zealand and Fort
Lauderdale before com- Whitb
ing back to Southampton.
Nance Frank, 44, a Key West native, is
skippering the 12-woman crew. She has
dreamed of competing in the Whitbread ever
since she watched the winning sailboat, Flyer,
arrive at Rio de Janeiro on the last leg of its
first victory in the 1978 Whitbread.
"I saw the look of accomplishment in the
crews' eyes," Frank said. "It looked like they

all just won gold medals and I knew right then
that was what I wanted to do."
Determined to be involved in the event,
she began ocean racing.
"Even though I was a reasonable cook,
that wasn't my idea of sailing the Whitbread,"
Frank said. "I had to do more."
Eight years after herfirst glimpse of Flyer,
Frank felt she was ready.

ead sailor. She managed to at-
tract a major credit card

firm. But the day before the race, the sponsor
backed out and the team remained on the
docks in Southampton.
Disappointed, Frank embarked on a fi-
nancial voyage to garner money for the 1993-
94 Whitbread.
So far she has secured about $1.8 million
of the $3.4 million necessary to "comfortably

Scheduled ESPN Whitbread programs

complete the race." Most of
the funding has come from
individual donations and a
$200,000 home port spon-
sorship from the tourism pro-
motion councilfor the Florida
Keys and Key West.
Frank and her crew plan
to continue their fundraising
efforts along the way, seek-
ing accommodations and
other in-kind services be-
tween legs.
They will live at sea for
15 to45 day periods without
refrigeration, air condition-
ing and hot water. During
race legs they'll dine mostly
offreeze-dried food and sleep
--in shifts -on black nylon
pipe berths below deck.
"Whitbread is an endur-
ance race and women are
endurance creatures," Frank
said. We do it because we
want to surf down 50-foot
waves and race around the
world."

Despite financial difficulties, U.S. Women's Challenge Skipper
Nance Frank, pilots her boat to this year's Whitbread race.

Palm-Beach dive club still

active after 53 years i

By CRAIG LUSTGARTEN
Waterfront News Writer
WEST PALM BEACH Since its in-
ception in 1950, the Palm Beach Fin Divers
Club continues to be one of the most active
dive clubs in southeast Florida.
It 200 members regularly go on boat flo-
tillas, have island parties, and take dive trips to
the Bahamas and the Florida Keys.
In the early days, the club fought a politi-
cal movement to eliminate spearfishing. It
was also instrumental in getting the first set of
regulations established for skin divers in the
six southeast Florida counties.
West Palm Beach resident Harold Drake

was one of the original Fin Diver members.
Drake, now 72 is a former dive instructor, and
past president of the Fin Divers. He currently
chairs the legislative committee of the club,
which is concerned with keeping diving safe.
Harold Gordon, another original member
of the club, says diving has become a multi-
faceted activity since the early emphasis on
spear-fishing back in the 1950s.
"I have four aquariums which I have to
collect various items to maintain. I'm also into
videotaping the reefs and marine life and
getting excellent results it's quite refresh-
ing to go out there to take pictures and then
come home and see it in front of you the very
same night."

f 0

Joe Hamrick of West Palm Beach has
been a club member since the late 1960s.
Hamrick, who had been diving for a number of
years, got involved with the Fin Divers after
meeting some of the people who were club
members.
Hamrick said that one of the club activi-
ties during the late 1960s was dumping tire
jacks into an artificial reef area off Palm

Beach. The club was also responsible for
purchasing the first area's decompression
chamber, which was installed at the Intercity
First Aid Squad in Lake Park and later moved
to St. Mary's Hospital.

Fin Divers, contact Bunny Springer at (407)

Special to the Waterfront News
Most adults would agree that taking a
young child fishing can requires as much
patience as the sport itself. But adults who
keep it simple and focus on fun often reel in
rewarding experiences forboth child and adult.
Children lose interest in fishing very
quickly unless they catch something, so seek
out a well-stocked site.
: "A child would rather catch a dozen small
fish than one big fish," said Yamaha ProStaffer
Charlie Ingram, whose son, Hunter, won his
age group's national title in the Rubbermaid
Bassmaster Casting Kids competition last year.
"Find a spot loaded with bluegill, crappie or
other panfish and your kid will have a blast."
Provide your child a light-action rod that
bends freely when shaken, yet is rugged enough
to withstand getting dropped or stepped on.
Children usually prefer spincasting reels be-
cause they are easy to use and have closedface
designs that reduce backlashes and tangles in
the line.
"Tie a rubber practice plug onto your

child's line and teach your kid ho
before heading to the water. This is e
safer. Make the practice into a game
through hoops or at tin cans," Ingra
For actual fishing, load the tackl
bobbers, sinkers and small
Nightcrawlers, crickets and other ins
great on panfish, and can be almost
fun for your child to catch as fish. Wi
Velveeta cheese also make good ba

takes planning,
)w to cast When fishing, clamp a sinker about one
easier, and foot above the hook and attach a bobber 2 feet
by casting beyond the sinker. If no fish strike, move the
am said. bobber further from the hook and try fishing
ebox with about six feet deep. Keep lowering the bait
hooks, until you find fish.

Billfish Foundation to present conservation awards

By JOHN B. SPENCE
Special to the Waterfront News
The Billfish Foundation (TBF) will hold
its seventh annual conservation awards dinner
on Thursday, Oct. 29, at the Marriott's Harbor
Beach Resort in Fort Lauderdale.
The evening's activities include the pre-
sentation of awards to individuals and organi-
zations who have contributed to the world-
wide conservation of billfish. The event will
once again be presided over by sportfishing

personality, Mark Sosin, of ESPN's Saltwater
Journal. TBF president and Chairman,
Winthrop Rockefeller, will mike the awards
presentations.
A silent auction and raffle will be held at
6 p.m, followed by dinner, awards ceremony
and live auction at 7:30 p.m.. Auction items
will include sportfishing vacations, sculpture
and original paintings depicting marine life,
and nautical jewelry. The live auction will be
conducted by the Fisher Auction Company.

Through the conservation awards dinner,
TBF will raise funds to support research, edu-
cation and advocacy. TBF also uses the event
to raise awareness of the many threats facing
billfish stocks worldwide, and the ecosystems
in which they live.
Those wishing to attend may purchase
tickets by contracting Bonnie Mims, director
of special Events, at TBF's Fort Lauderdale
office: (800) 438-8247 or (305) 938-0150.

patience
takes the fun out of fishing, Ingram said.
Ingram suggests that parents bring their ile
own rod and reel so they're not concentrating
only on their children
Kids need to blow off steam, so let your as
child skip rocks, catch salamanders or run to
around for a while when the fishing gets slow.
If you child truly likes to fish, he or she will
pick up the rod again after working off some
energy. '
