Changing market

results in demise of

spring boat show
By BETH FEINSTEIN-BARTL
Waterfront News Writer
Competition and a changing marine marketplace have
led to the cancellation of the annual spring boat show in Fort
Lauderdale.
The event, which had been re-dubbed Boats in the Park,
was held for the first time last May at George English Park,
overlooking the Middle River at 1101 Bayview Dr. It had
previously been held for 16 years at the Bahia Mar Resort'
and Marinaon Fort Lauderdale Beach when it was known as
the Fri t Laudel dle SpringBoat Show.
Attendance had declined when it was at Bahia Mar.
Organizers had hoped being at George English Park would
revitalize interest in the event.
Although organizers said there was a fair turn out at
George English, it obviously wasn't enough.
"It just didn't meet our expectations," said Kaye
Pearson, president of Show Management Inc., the show's
promoters.
The marketplace for boat shows has changed' dramati-
cally, Pearson said.
"We found there was not sufficient support for another
show here in the springtime," he said. '"The expenses relative
to the potential income didn't make economic sense. The
Marine Industries Association of South Florida and my
company decided:to cancel the show at this point."
Show Management is not closing the door entirely. "If

there is a need in the future, we can re-establish it," said
Pearson.
But right now, there are too many other boat shows in
the area. "In the last four to five years, we've seen special-
ized shows," he said..
That includes his significantly growing Palm Beach
boat show, held in March, as well as two boat shows in
Miami in the spring and early summer, Pearson said.
"All of these events have affected diluting the market-
place to some degree," he said.

Show in October, the largest in the world, also affects the
spring show, with people often choosing to go to the larger
show," Pearson said.
The show in George English was geared to small boats,
but people can see those displays at other local shows. The
Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, for instance, has
devoted most of its displays at the Fort Lauderdale
Convention Center to small boats, said Frank Herhold, exec-

Miami Billfish Tournament to help pioneer new conservation rule

This year's Miami Billfish Tournament takes place April
4-7. More cash awards will be given out this year, due to
an increased amount of sponsors.

Circle hooks expected to
alleviate harm to fish
By ARNOLD MARKOWITZ
Waterfront News Writer
Nick Smith is going after his third consecutive Master
Angler championship in the Yamaha Contender Miami
Billfish Tournament.
If he wins the 20th anniversary event, running April 4-7,
his competitors may applaud more enthusiastically than ever,
for after this one Smith is moving on. No more trolling gog-
gle-eyes from a kite. There are other ways to catch billfish.
"Next year it'll be all fly fishing," says Smith's favorite
skipper, Miami charterboat captain Ray Rosher. "Nick has
102 days booked, around the world, flyfishing for billfish
only. As we speak, he's in Kona, Hawaii, fishing for
spearfish on fly. Next week he'll be in Australia for striped
and black marlin."
Other than Smith's farewell, this year's event features
a new conservation-sensitive rule. From now on, only cir-
cle hooks are permitted and only the kind without an
offset shank.
Though not every billfisher is convinced yet, there is
strong scientific evidence that circle hooks, which are radi-
cally different from the traditional J shape, greatly reduce
the likelihood of gut-hooking fish and enhance their survival
after they're released.
The hook requires some changes in fishing technique,

but that hasn't scared off contestants. Executive director
Karen McGinley expects to exceed last year's 430 contes-
tants on 107 boats by the Thursday, April 4 entry deadline,
which is the night before competition begins at Miami
Beach Marina.
"This year we've received entries about two weeks ear-
lier than ever before," says McGinley, who is directing her
fourth tournament. "People are eager to fish."
The reason?
"More money! We'll give away over $135,000 in cash,
plus tens of thousands in trophies and other prizes," she said.
Title sponsors Yamaha marine engines and Contender
fishing boats, guarantee all the prize money, McGinley says.
But it isn't cheap to enter. The basic entry fee is $200
per angler, and there are value-added categories with other
entry fees. For $100 per person, you can enter a "funfish"
subcategory for dolphin, wahoo, kingfish and tuna the
only fish to be boated and weighed. There's a family cate-
gory, too. Such events, which tend to be under-entered, offer
the best chance for non-experts to win prizes.
For entry details, call McGinley at 305-598-2525, or go
online to http://www.miamibillfish.com to see complete
rules and other useful information.
Thought it costs money to enter the tournament, it costs
nothing to go to the Miami Beach Marina for the associated
auctions, raffles and festivities. If you know nothing else

APRIL 2002Fun, csalfor Dania Beach fishing pier

Wanted: Fun, causal restaurant for Dania Beach fishing pier

By BETH FEINSTEIN-BARTL
Waterfront News Writer
Color renderings of plans for a new restaurant on
Dania Beach's fishing pier were unveiled recently at a
City Commission meeting, marking the first time that offi-
cials and the public could visualize how the long-awaited
eatery will look.
City Manager Ivan Pato said he was very impressed
by the renderings, which were presented in late February.
"It's terrific," Pato said. "It's first class. It finally puts
a picture in people's minds."
The plans depict a 6,300-square-feet restaurant. Of
that space, 3,700-square-feet will be air conditioned and
indoors.
According to the plan, the one-story structure will
also have an observation deck. Lifts for handicapped visi-
tors will be in the restaurant and on the pier, as well.
The restaurant's interior will be built to accommodate
up to 180 patrons, possibly more. The figure does not
include outdoorseating, said Neal Aronson, project archi-
tect.
,City commissioners hired Aronson's firm, Aronson
and Associates Architects in Hollywood. last year.
While designing the structure, Aronson said he kept
the surroundings in mind, giving the structure a water and
nautical feel.

"I want to bring the outside inside by creating indoor
and outdoor seating and large open windows that can be
opened completely," Aronson said.
The design also gives patrons varied views in all
directions, from the beach to the ocean, he said.
A final design of the restaurant's facade will be cho-
sen by the future restaurateur, with approval of the com-
mission, Aronson said.
The city has no date for when construction is to start,
Pato said.
"As a goal; we want to have the restaurant built by
summer, 2003," he said.
The city has allocated $650,000 toward the project.
Dania Beach officials intend to keep ownership of the site
and lease the space.
"The city will put out feelers to try and get people
interested in talking to us," Pato said.
Already, one potential restaurateur was scheduled to
meet with officials in late March. he said.
"The word is getting out that this is moving forward
and representatives are contacting the city," he said.

The city has allocated $650,000
toward the project. Dania Beach
officials intend to keep ownership of
the site and lease the space.

"There is interest."
Restaurateurs are drawn to the site because its location
is unique, Pato said.
Since the establishment would be built directly on the
beach and on a fishing pier, officials believe the future ten-
ant should be a casual, friendly, fun type of restaurant,
rather than a formal, high-end establishment, he said
Talks of placing a restaurant on the pier have been
ongoing for the past four to five years, Pato said.
Once opened, he believes the restaurant will be a pop-
ular attraction.
There are many restaurants on piers in California, said
Pato, a former San Francisco resident.
"I don't know of any in Florida that are on the pier,
although there are restaurants that are near or alongside the
piers," he said. "I think it will be a terrific draw."

Pelican refuge gives injured birds a chance to recover

Fishing paraphernalia can
be a threat to hungry birds
By ARNOLD MARKOWITZ
Waterfront News Writer
If you're a saltwater fisherman, you may have devel-
oped a dangerous habit of tossing fish heads and skeletons
to pelicans.
What's wrong with that? Visit the Pelican Harbor
Seabird station on the 79th Street Causeway in Miami, and
Harry Kelton, who runs it, will show you a fish spine studded
with protruding bones. The spine was caught inside a pelican
and Kelton's veterinarian had to remove it surgically.
A pelican can swallow a fish whole, but if you give it fil-
leting leftovers, you're feeding it trouble. That's one thing
Harry and Darlene Kelton have learned and taught in the 22
years since they moved from an apartment to a houseboat at
the Pelican Harbor Marina.
The Keltons expected plenty of pelicans. But they did-
n't plan to get involved personally much less run a non-
profit pelican rescue squad since 1980.
Back then, there wasn't much at Pelican Harbor: Just
some under-used public waterfront land, a few docks and
boats, a dirt road and many noticeably disabled pelicans.
"We found pelicans swimming down current, beginning
in late afternoon, swimming southward," Harry Kelton says.
Swimming not flying. They had injured wings, or
they were hooked by fishing lures and tangled in yards of
monofilament line.
'Trussed up like a Christmas turkey," Kelton says, "to
the point where they had to swim with one foot because they
couldn't move the other one."
Ordinarily, they'd have flown directly over the Keltons'
place on the north side of the causeway to reach their roosts
on an island half a mile to the south. They didn't know about
the other way around, under a bridge.
"We started picking them up, carrying them across the

road and putting them back in the water at the launching
ramp," Kelton says. "Otherwise, they'd get up on the road and
become road kill or stay on a rock till they died, either one."
Harry is a retired mechanical engineer. Darlene used to
work at WSVN Channel 7. Neither had veterinary training,
but they quickly grew skillful at untangling fishing tackle
from seabirds, nursing them back to health and supervising
the permanently disabled. Early on, they hooked up with Dr.
Jim McCoy, a veterinarian whose clinic was just across the
bridge. He still is their doctor pro bono.

If you fish much, you know that most seabirds aren't
sharp enough to tell the difference'between a lure full of
barbed hooks and a fit-to-eat baitfish. Gulls are less often
snagged because they hover and pick up a lure by the
back-then drop it when they feel the resistance of a fishing
line. Pelicans dive on a bait with more force than finesse.
They get hooked.
Fishing tackle is the major nemesis of seabirds, espe-
cially pelicans. With all the lures the Keltons have removed
from pelicans over the years, they could have gone into the
second-hand tackle business.
They keep a small display on a wall of the Seabird
Station's clinic. There's a Krocodile spoon, Rapala and
Rebel plugs, some nylon bucktail jigs, a Rat-L-Trap, a bright
pink tube lure and other such stuff that Kelton says account
for 91 percent of the injuries.
"Treble hooks are the worst. One hook gets caught on
the wing, the bird rubs it with its chin and another hook
catches it there." He demonstrates by rolling his cheek over
against his shoulder, imagining his arm wrapped in fishing
line and trying to take off. Kelton can't fly anyway, but you
get the idea.
A lot has changed in 20 years. The pens the Keltons
built in the beginning have been replaced by rows of chain-
link fenced enclosures classy enough to be called aviaries.
Dade County developed the marina, put up a clinic building
and leased it to the Seabird Station.
By then the place was a local institution. People find
injured birds in their yards and bring them to Pelican Harbor.
They often come in the middle of the night, carrying birds
tucked in towels and flapped into cardboard boxes. Just for
them, there's a stack of cat and dog carrier cages near the
clinic door.
On the day the Waterfront News visited, 38 pelicans -
medically recovered from their injuries but still disabled-
were earning their keep on permanent educational exhibit.
"They go about their business:' Kelton says, "sitting
around the pool, swimming, building their nests, raising
their young-exactly what I used to do."
There usually are one to two dozen recuperating peli-
cans on site and about the same number of handicapped

Lauderdale Isles: Tree-lined streets and a new city address

This is one in a series of special features looking at
neighborhoods that line Broward County waterways.
This month's article examines Lauderdale Isles in the
Riverland area, which has recently become part of the
city of Fort Lauderdale.
By WILLIAM R. HAWKINS
Waterfront News Writer
Residents of Lauderdale Isles say it's not just the trop-
ical names of the tiny isles that make the neighborhood
almost paradise-like.
Called Key Largo, Bimini, Nassau, Andros and
Tortugas, the isles, shaded by big oak trees dangling with
Spanish moss, also are home to boat after boat. Wooden
street signs surrounded by landscaping greet motorists
traveling Riverland Road in what is now considered Fort
Lauderdale.
In March, residents voted to annex into the city from
unincorporated Broward County. Dania Beach had also
unsuccessfully vied to gain the area's population.
Lauderdale Isles is bordered roughly by State Road 7
to the west, the winding North New River Canal to the
east and south, and Riverland Road to the north.
Now after eight years, the community's struggle to
create a five-acre Riverland Woods Park is moving ahead.
Nearly $500,000 in grant money has been secured to clear
the land along the North Fork of the New River, off
Riverland Road and State Road 7. Ground was recently
broken to help create a small boat ramp, along with other
improvements.
"This sense of community and pride in our neighbor-
hood is what I believe sets us a part from other areas," said
Jennifer O'Brien, who lives on Gulfstream Lane and is
vice president of the Lauderdale Isles Civic Improvement
Association.
In a recent civic newsletter, O'Brien told of her greet-
ing into the neighborhood after she and her husband first
bought their home in October 1999. "It was only a few
days before closing and we were invited to a party where
we had a chance to meet all the new neighbors before even
a single piece of furniture had been moved," she said.
Developed in the 1950s by Gill Construction Co., the
isles off the south,side of Riverland Road originally were
settled by snowbirds wanting .vacation hideaways. A two-
bedroom home 52 years ago-had a-price tag of $10,500.

Carved wooden signs
help direct motorists to
Lauderdale Isles which
recently became part of
Fort Lauderdale.

Now homes go for $200,000 and up.
In 1959, the civic association was formed with some
700 households.
Virginia Springmeyer, who at the age of 92 is the old-
est member of the association, is one of the few original
landowners.
"My father loved this area and was the one who
decided to move us all here from St. Louis," said
Springnmeyer, who was in her 30s when she relocated into
the family home on Key Largo Lane. When her family
moved there, they had to stay in a motel until construction
was finished
"I've always loved the peace and quiet of the area and
it's still that way today even though a lot has changed,":
she said.
"They would start building on one lane and then go up

suppose I have that many years to go on living here, but I
plan to stay as long as I can."
Joan Sheridan moved to her home on Key Largo Lane
in 1963 after buying from an original owner. Now it's an
early American-style cottage with lots of brick, a Dutch
front door, colored glass,, wooden logs and ceiling beams
and ruffled curtains.
"It doesn't look very Floridian but we love it," she
said, explaining how much work she and her husband,
Pete, did on their own.
It was Sheridan who helped deal with one of the most
serious threats to the isles in 1970 when heavy vegetation
in the waterways threatened to stop all boat traffic and was

Mortgages, taxes

and boats oh

By MARK ERCOLIN
Waterfront News Columnist
Soon after the end of the Revolutionary
War, as the story goes, an Englishman came
to the newly established United States to
visit one of his American relatives.
Upon the arrival of this British sub-
ject to U.S. shores, the boastful American
kinsman began to speak at length about
the potential and greatness of the free
young nation.
After the American completed his
speech, the Englishman nonchalantly
turned to his relative and said, "so cousin,
it is my understanding that you Yanks
overthrew your lawful Monarch primarily
because you were all against taxation with-
out representation."
"Indeed sir, that is true!" the American
replied proudly.
"Well then," retorted the Englishman,
"Now that you have your representation,
do you like your taxes any better than you
did before?"
Although the Englishman's question
was designed to be rhetorical, it does. point
out a universal truth nobody enjoys pay-
ing taxes.
In the recreational boating industry,
taxes are most usually noticed when they
have to be paid after the purchase of a
vessel.
In south Florida particularly, all sorts
of strategies are contemplated by some
boat buyers to try and lessen their tax con-
tribution.
The tactics for decreasing one's tax
burden runs the gamut from the somewhat
reasonable to the downright complicated.
These tactics can be limited by specific
facts, including residency, purchase cost of
the vessel, and any plans for taking out a
loan to pay for the vessel.
So, before you buy a boat, it might
prove useful to review some of the issues

ny!

.concerning yacht buying and taxation:
First, if one purchases a recreational
vessel in the United States, and plans to-
document it with the United States (or reg-
ister it with a state), sales'taxes due to one
of the several states will become an issue.
For example, if you are a Florida resi-
dent (own property or even just have a
Florida driver's license), and purchase
your vessel in the state, generally speak-
ing, you will be required to pay Florida's 6
percent sales tax on the purchase of your
boat (not to mention that certain counties
impose a local surtax on the first $5,000 on
the sale price).
This is usually the case even if you
plan to document or register your vessel
under a corporation in a different state.
This is because when a yacht is purchased
in Florida, the buyer is typically required
by the state Department of Revenue to fill
out an affidavit that takes into account
such a scenario, and thereby establishes
the purchaser's underlying taxable links
to the state.
On the other hand, if you are not a
Florida resident, the state has established
several programs to allow the purchaser of
a large recreational boat the opportunity to
buy and use their vessel in Florida waters
-providing certain 'guidelines are fol-
lowed without incurring a sale or use
tax penalty.
However, that does not mean that the
non-resident isn't required to register their
vessel somewhere. And, once the vessel is
registered, it will be subject to the taxation
scheme of its chosen jurisdiction, includ-
ing the possibility of an annual personal
property tax in some of those states.
To avoid the numerous tax codes of
the states, some enterprising yacht buyers
consider the strategy of documenting their

Making the most

of 'Floridays'

By RICK ROUGHEN
Waterfront News Columnist
I often wonder if we here in South
Florida and particularly those of us who
relish and rummage about on the water-
front, take time enough in our busy sched-
ules to stop and smell the roses. There are.
lots to smell and they bloobm all year here. -
I'm not talking about the prickly
kinds, but rather the tropical ones that look
a lot like beaches, palm trees, restaurants,
waterways, fishing holes, and everything
else that the rest of the world dreams about
and calls "paradise."
If you enjoy bright sunshine, warm
temperatures and a refreshing summer
squall every now and again, then you're in
exactly the right place, my friend.
It's no accident that so many pale
invaders and time crusaders jet in to our
fine town from all over the planet to let
their hair down, kick their feet up and cram
their guts full of fresh seafood, spicy chow-
ders and ice cold toddys of every type. And
if they like boats, w-e-l-1 ... then, ...
I was recently on my way to work, try-
ing to get in early one morning and got
really annoyed when a traffic jam on
Commercial Boulevard in Fort Lauderdale
jumped out in front of me. In a rush
(again), I decided to turn around and point
my truck eastward, ending up on State
Road A1A, headed sodth back in to town.
With the A/C off and my windows
down, I watched the sun rise up over the
ocean as I sped along a spectacular line of
palm trees and sand that stretched for
miles. Coming down 17th street, I was
again forced to stop, but this time at the top
of the bridge. I had time to take in the
sights as I had never done before, and was
amazed to observe the spectacular array of
yachts and waterways as far as I could see.
Later that day while having lunch

(conch chowder and a blackened dolphin
sandwich) on Riverwalk, my senses were
again overwhelmed with the sounds of a
steel drum band floating in on the balmy
Breeze. I realized with a building sense of
than'kfulness that' it was still February,
and-:.wondered what all of'the folks ip
north were doing. i: '
S Topped off the afternoon with a boat
ride to view:a piece of waterfront'proper-
ty that had gone up for sale, and once
again had the'ipresence to marvel at the
incredible beauty and peacefulness that
resounds up and down the New River.
My ride back home on 1-95 that evening
was different, and I was happy to call
Fort Lauderdale home.
I'm acutely aware of the challenges
we all face on a daily basis in and about
the marine industry. Brokers are hustling
with a driving sense of urgency to make
the next deal. Shipyards are bustling with
activity, working under time constraints
to get repairs done by deadline.
Meanwhile captains pull their hair out to
keep their owners and crew happy.
Editors burn the midnight oil making
sure that all of the columns turned in late
get fine-tuned before the whole salami
goes to press, and time marches on right
here in the tropics.
With all of the challenges and diffi-
culties to deal with in our busy days, do
-we-ever-tak-e-time-out-to look- around-and-
enjoy our circumstance and surround-
ings?
I have a suggestion. Make plans to
insert a little R&R into your hectic sched-
ule. It really isn't all that difficult and the
effort may go a long way toward easing a
good chunk of the stress you face in the
rest of your 55-plus hour workweek.
Take lunch a little early to beat the

Biscayne Bay cleanup pairs hard work with shore leave

By ARNOLD MARKOWITZ
Waterfront News Writer
If 5,000 to 7,000 volunteers go to Biscayne Bay once a
year for 19 years (as indeed they have) to clear trash off the
islands and shorelines (as indeed they do), and if they haul
off about 20 tons of trash each time (indeed again) well,
you'd guess they'd be finished by now, right?
Indeed not. They're doing it for the 20th time on April
20, and it will be surprising if 20 more tons of rubbish are
not collected that day.
The supply looks endless, but the upside is an ideal
opportunity for the, boating and fishing public to spend a
day protecting and celebrating Miami-Dade County's
most important marine resources Biscayne Bay and the
Miami River.
Combined, the Biscayne Bay Cleanup and the hyper-
bolically entitled Magnificent Miami River Celebration
form the centerpiece event of Baynanza, a month-long
observance that fills April to its banks and sloshes into late
March and early May with sailing, canoe and kayak tours,
wet hikes, fishing and other events.
Baynanza has been sponsored since 1982 by the coun-
ty's environmental agency, DERM, and joined since then by
the Miami River Commission and Citizens for a Better
South Florida. Baynanza is meant to spread appreciation of
the local waters and related features of nature that are often
overlooked.
And often mistreated, judging by the volume of trash
collected in this one three-hour event.
Where does it all come from? Not where you might
think, says DERM spokesman Sean McCrackine:
"The vast majority of stuff comes from the shore, not
boats. People toss stuff on the streets, rain washes it into storm
drains and canals and it winds up in the bay. There's no short-
age from boaters, either. If anything, we all contribute to it."
Starting at 9 a.m. that Saturday, volunteer trash-pickers
will be ferried by volunteer boaters to islands, or they can
arrive at shoreline locations where they'll be issued plastic
bags to fill. them with everything they find that doesn't
belong where they find it.

APRIL 2002

Consider the pitfalls before documenting your vessel outside the U.S.

craft overseas as a "foreign flagged vessel."
Such a boat is generally allowed to travel in U.S. waters
under an annual "cruise permit" issued by the Customs
Service, and is not subject to state sale or use taxes if deliv-
ery of the vessel was taken outside of the national jurisdic-
tion. Although, this may sound appealing, it must be noted
that foreign flagging a yacht has its own special pitfalls.
The first issue is the cost of documenting a vessel over-
seas. Unless the purchase price is over $500,000, it usually
doesn't pay to flag a yacht overseas due to the costs of setting
up an offshore corporation and its accompanying legal paper-
work. If your boat's purchase price was less than half a mil-
lion dollars, such costs do not seem to make up the difference
compared to paying taxes to a state government.

We want to hear from you.
nd your letters to th

Waterfront News

editor@waterfront-news.com
SOnly letters that include name and address will be considered for publication.

Secondly though it appears unlikely at this time -
with the rapidly changing political climate after Sept. 11,
there may come a point when U.S. Customs will stop issu-
ing cruise permits to foreign flagged vessels with the same
liberality they do.at present.
Finally, taking a loan out on the boat might lead to a
reason for not documenting it overseas. Many banks will
insist that their loan be protected by a U.S. Preferred
Ship's Mortgage.
This type of mortgage grants the lender a superior prior-
ity of lien on the boat above many other types of liens that
can be accrued against the vessel in its travels, including liens
for "necessaries" in U.S. ports (read necessaries as dockage,
repairs and supplies). Certainly, no lender wants their priori-
ty to be inferior to the guy selling rope to the vessel.
Since a U.S. Preferred Ship's Mortgage can only be

filed on vessels documented within the United States, taking
out such a loan will prevent the yacht purchaser from pursu-
ing a foreign flag solution as an option for tax relief on their
vessel. Which brings us back to dealing with the states and
the taxation schemes implemented by their duly elected rep-
resentatives. Oh, well....
Always remember, freat the buying of a boat with the
same seriousness as you would real estate. So, plan your
purchase fully before you sign any papers.
By the way, in 1774 the only tax we Yanks were real-
ly concerned about was on the import of tea. Ah, the good
old days!

Volunteers clean up during annual environmental event

By WILLIAM R. HAWKINS
Waterfront News Writer
The waters lacing through Broward County are minus
tons of debris after the recent 25th annual Waterway
Cleanup held on March 2.
Armed with trash bags and traveling in boats of all
sizes, a record 3,500 volunteers participated in the silver
anniversary year of the annual event sponsored by the
Marine Industries Association of South Florida.
It's the largest environmental effort in the county,
covering many parts of some 300 miles of navigable
canals and waterways.
The goal is always to locate and remove as much trash
and debris as possible eliminating not only pollution
potentials but boating hazards and items harmful to fish.
"This is the one of our biggest projects of the year and
we're grateful for all the community support we received
from individuals and businesses," said Frank Herhold,
MIASF execute director. He lauded the efforts of
cleanup chairperson, Marilyn Mammano, who reported a
record 60 tons of trash collected this year.
From plastics to paper and glass to garbage, debris
was hauled to central dumping sites and loaded in

Dumpsters. One team even found an abandoned boat.
The George English Park boat ramp off Bayview
Drive in Fort Lauderdale served as the official kick-off
location. Whole Foods Market and Publix donated snacks
to volunteers who worked from 33 designated cleanup
sites along the waterways.
"This day is special because it focuses attention on an
important issue of water quality, but we need to be aware
of a clean water environmental year-round," said Richard
Rothe, Parks and Recreation Director of the City of
Wilton Manors, who was honored by the MIASF for
being the longest-serving cleanup volunteer. Rothe has
been with the program all 25 years.
"When we first started there was only a handful of
volunteers and a few cleanup sites," Rothe said. "It then
grew to more sites and more volunteers and now it is one
of the largest and most organized volunteer-based activity
of its kind in the county."

Boat show's popular plywood regatta finds

a new home at upcoming Waterfest event

sponsors of the annual spring boat show.
Paul Dooley, a board' member of the Coral Ridge
Homeowners Association, said he was saddened to hear that
the spring show will not return to George English Park.
Some residents initially had reservations about the show
being held at the park and its affect on surrounding homes.
City commissioners only approved giving promoters the site
after they agreed to donate $20,000 toward the park and
neighborhood improvements.
Of that money, $5,000 went to the Coral Ridge
Homeowners Association for entryway beautification. The
rest went to the park.
"I'm disappointed that it's not coming back," Dooley
said. "The neighborhood was happy with the show being
in the park. The folks at Show Management did a won-
derful job of putting the park back together after the show
was over."
Dooley, who had gone to the event, said attendance
wasn't as high as expected. But it was the first year at
George English and it probably would have grown, he said.
One of the activities from the spring show that will con-
tinue is the plywood regatta, which has found a home at
Waterfest, a new event scheduled for June 1 and 2 at the
International Game Fish Association Hall of Fame and
Museum in Dania Beach.
The event involves kids and adults who build their own
floating craft and compete in separate categories.
Waterfest will have different exhibits and demonstra-
tions revolving around fishing, boating and environmental
educational. There will also be a seafood festival.
"It will be everything about water, geared to families,"
said Dan Vawter, membership development coordinator for

Increased amount of sponsors means more cash awards for winners

I 'l 'il:IUI:ll l ii
about tournament fishermen,, know this: They're great at
partying.
Everyone's invited to join them, McGinley says. The
more, the merrier:
"I think one of the best things about this tournament is
that it's more a gathering of friends and family an enter-
taining thing for anyone, even if you just come down to the
docks. They have a good time. There's a lot of camaraderie
and friendship."
The rewards are attractive too.
Smith, a Ford dealer in Palm Beach County, won
$2,000 as master angler in each of the last two tournarfients.
Last year, Rosher and his crew won $15,477.50 in cash
prizes, most of that for second-place- finishes in two cate-
gories. The richest team prizes, totaling $23,262.50. \went to
Ralph and Eddie Mortalvo's Sea Hunter The brothers own
an aircraft overhaul company.
McGinley is confident that marine conservation causes
and related projects will receive more than last year's total
$66,103. "Money from raffles, shirt and hat sales, the boat
raffle, the auctions all that, once the bills are paid, goes
to conservation."
Last year's biggest donation, $10,000, went to the

University of Miami's Research Center for Sustainable
Fisheries. The Billfish Foundation and the Nature
Conservancy each were given $5,000. .
.There's more money this year because there are more
sponsors, McGinley said, and more sponsors because of the
tournament's long-term success. Four years ago, it became a
part of the World Billfish Series. The Billfish Tournament
Network rates it number 6 in the world.
With status like that, the Miami tournament can risk
being a pioneer in the movement to circle hooks. Now only
a few tournaments require them.
Theji are peculiar things. A circle hook's point curves
back toward the shank and its barb is bent to a sharp angle.
It looks a lot like a production line mistake.
Its prominence springs from a study led by Eric D.
Prince of the National Marine Fisheries Service in Miami.
Of 360 Pacific sailfish caught in Guatemalan waters, 85 per-
cent were hooked by circle hooks in a comer of the mouth,
the hooking site least likely to cause fatal harm.
J hooks hooked only 27 percent of the fish that way, and
they stuck 46 percent of the fish in the worst places, the
throat or stomach. Only 2 percent were snagged that deep by
circle hooks. The reason: When a sailfish takes a baitfish, it
swallows the rig whole. When you lighten your line, a circle

hook usually comes back to the mouth easily, but a J hook is
more likely to snag and damage something internal.
The entire report can be viewed online at
http://www.miamibillfish.com/acrobat/acrobat.html
Will this year's change to circle hooks also affect the
standings and make new champions? Not likely, if it's true
that the best rise to the top. Nick Smith, Ray Rosher and
Miss Britt can reasonably be expected to finish high again.
The same goes for Ralph and Eddie Montalvo, whose past
achievements are especially impressive because they are not
professional chartermen.
Rosher makes the point that there are other guys and
boats whose tackle and skills are about as good. He rattles
off an incomplete list: The Dudas family's L & H with
Rick Gunnion and Merle Mulligan fishing, Quinton
Dieterle's boat, Cutting Edge, arid his client Dr. Jack
Kaplan, plus a half-dozen other teams that come directly to
mind. One great day, even one great hour, could put any of
them up front.
Says Rosher: "On any given day, probably a third of the
fleet ...No, I think a half that's my estimate of the people
who could easily catch a triple or a quad, three or four sail-
fish hooked at one time. You can leapfrog over a lot of peo-
ple that ay."

trash." The couple has been volunteering
their time for the last seven years.
Joanne Salvadore, who lives off
Bayview Drive in Coral Ridge, has been
involved in the cleanup for four years and
said it "angers me every time I see some-
thing floating in the water and knowing
some careless person thew it overboard."
Howard Crompton and his wife,
Cindy, of Plantation donated their 18-foot
powerboat to help patrol the New River.
"We did it for the first time last year
and really 'wete'stirprised at how- much
trash we collected, like even tires and pil-
lows," he explained.
SHis wife said the couple looks on it as
a fun event for them and their friends to
use their boat, while also."doing our part
for community service." '
SIn Wilton Manors, a .city completely
surrounded by water, more than 125 vol-
unteers in boats and on land, spent the day
cleaning waterways.

Lisa Raben, who works in the city's
finance department, loaned out her boat
and enlisted the help of some of her chil-
dren and other teens in the cleanup.
"I've done this for several years and it's
been a great way for the kids to get com-
munity service points," said Raben, who
had five teen-agers on her small boat pick-
ing up trash from the water and river banks.

"I don't see big mansions coming here

but there is the issue of noise pollution due
to the airport and 1-595 expansions."

Baltimore to put on a waterfront festival befitting the Volvo

By TERRY CONWAY
Waterfront News Writer
It's best known as the battle site where the Star-Spangled
Banner first flew during the War of 1812 Detainee Francis
Scott Key watched the bombardment from a British warship
anchored in Baltimore's harbor. Seeing the flag withstand the
assault so inspired Key that he penned our nation's anthem.
The Fort McHenry historic monument should be an
ideal landside spot to catch the April 17 finish of Leg 6 of the
32,700 nautical mile 2002 Volvo Ocean Race. The fleet will
be arriving from Miami.
The boats will be docked in Baltimore until April 25
before leaving for Annapolis, Md. where the race fleet will
remain at City Dock from April 26-28, prior to the restart of
the race just north of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge. It wraps up
June 9 in Kiel, Germany.
Baltimore's Waterfront Festival, April .7-25, takes
place at the city's Inner Harbor in conjunction with the race.
The festival, which attracted more than 400,000 visitors in
1998, is now an annual event. It returns with a wide array of
maritime exhibits, workshops, seafood cooking demonstra-
tions, live music, strolling entertainment, arts events, envi-
ronmental awareness activities and an enticing menu of tasty
food, beer and wine.
Ever since 1600, Baltimore's waterways have been a
passage for ships carrying both commercial cargo and new
citizens., Now dubbed "Charm City," Baltimore projects both
an urban and small-town feel. Historically renovated marble-
stooped row houses surround the harbor, while nearby ethnic
neighborhoods reflect their own character, history and cui-
sine. The city's centerpiece is the Inner Harbor. Gleaming
office buildings and the glass-enclosed pavilions of
Harborplace rise from the water's edge. Forty years in the
making, the renovation of the Inner Harbor cost $200 million
and attracts 4.6 million annual visitors.
Along the harbor's vibrant promenade, tall-masted ships
glide and multi-colored flags snap in the breeze. Dozens of
retail stores, restaurants and attractions line the Inner Harbor,
Pier 6 Concert Pavilion presents a varied selection of music
artists from May through September. The Rusty Scupper is a
favorite dining spot serving seafood specialties along with a

spectacular view of the harbor.
Water taxis transport visitors every 15 minutes between
Inner Harbor, Fells Point and Canton attractions.
The biggest attraction is the National Aquarium. Its
14,000 animals include 600 species of fishes, birds, amphib-.
ians, reptiles and marine mammals that live in recreated habi-
tats from all over the world.
The current big show is called "Seahorse: Beyond
Imagination," where visitors glimpse 18 species and hun-
dreds of enchanting seahorses of all sizes, shapes and colors.
The exhibit transports visitors to locales from the Australian
Bay and a Tasmanian Kelp Bed to the Caribbean Reef and
Chesapeake Bay. Most startling are the Seadragons. These
peculiar creatures have multiple leafy or flowery appendages
that provide excellent camouflage in Australian waters, their.

native habitat.
Hike up to Level 5 and you'll step into the tropical Rain
Forest Here brilliantly colored birds fill the air, poison dart
frogs hop, sloths dangle from a gnarly vine and tamarind
monkeys scamper among thousands of rainforest plants and
jungle habitat all under a towering glass pyramid.
If you enjoy visionary art, stop by the Walters Art
Museum, just a five-minute drive from the Inner Harbor.
Huge glass curtain walls now drop three stories to create a
grand atrium space that serves as a beacon to passersby on
Centre Street.
Since a three year $24 million renovation took place, the
museum now boasts a random-access tour with more than
300 stops and eight hours of recorded narration by notable
community leaders, A collection of nearly 70 Impressionist
art works will be on display through early summer.

Volunteer efforts, donations,

keep seabird station afloat
seven or eight years, she guesses, not caring
about time or pay. Some day, Kelton says,
she will replace him as chief.
The station has about 25 volunteers,
equivalent to two fulltime workers. One of
the 25 is Fox's son Brian, who created the
website where the station promotes its
work, invites visitors and keeps -score -
6,194 seabirds as of March 13, the last time
it was updated.
More volunteers are needed, but before
anyone hurries to enlist, Kelton insists they
visit and take a thorough look around.
Some people might decide a donation is a
better idea.
Indeed, says Kelton, that's a wonderful
idea any time.

there usually are cormorants, gulls, terns ken language, it's likely the Keltons and
and other birds in the recovery pens and Foxes would have learned it by now. Even
hanging out all around Pelican Harbor. without words, they usually know what the
birds are trying to say:
"We're hurt. We're hungry. Mayday,

calculates. That's a daily average of 164
pounds, but-consumption averages about
200 pounds. The difference is consumed by
non-pelican patients and by freeloaders.
'We try to feed the needy and stiff the
greedy," says Kelton. "They know exactly
what time we feed, at 6 am. and 4:30 p.m.,
and they know Mike Gordon's (a seafood
restaurant less than a mile away) feeds
before we do, about 1 p.m."
All the Seabird Station's money to buy
fish and pay other expenses comes from
donations. There's a paid staff of two -
Harry Kelton and Wendy Fox. Kelton says
they earn $5.25 an hour. Fox isn't sure how
long she's worked at the Seabird Station -

Up close
The best times to visit the Pelican
Harbor Seabird Station are from 9 a.m.
to noon and 2-5 p.m., any day. The loca-
tion on the 79th Street Causeway is
about a mile east of Biscayne Boulevard.
There's a map on the website at.
http://www.pelicanharbor.org Family
and group tours are encouraged, and
there's no charge. If you can, call first.
