[C38] Good news on the officer front and a proposal......

[George B. Suppes, III]

Chuck,

Have Anders give me a call if he wants a ride out of San Mateo.  
     I know of 2 cat 38's in Redwood City, 2 are at Coyote Point. Then there
is Mike Maddix in "Harp", and when I was racing in the Leukemia Cup, there
was Buckeroo hull number 218.  Not to mention about half a dozen others I
have seen around the marinas around here.  I would really like to find 5
other boats in the Bay that would want to race one design.  We could even do
it in a cruising class if people don't want to fly the chute.  I can get us
in the interclub series that has several one design divisions including
Islader 36's and Cat 34's, but it requires 6 boats for a division.
     Also, if anyone would just be interested in having a get together, I
can put something together at Coyote Point Yacht Club in San Mateo.(about an
hour and a half sail from Pac Bell Park)

from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream.

Congratulations to Steve and Anders, way to go and SF in 2013, well I'll
start making plans now!  BTW Steve, my yacht club, Shoreline, is the "host"
club for the Trans Pac, they will assign a member for liaison to you.  Let
me know who it is so I can "wise" them up a bit.  :-)



 
 
Best regards,

  Our Steve Smolinske has agreed to be our Technical Editor!  Steve comes to
the position with a wealth of sailing and technical knowledge and is one of
the very few people I know who can begin to fill the shoes of Tom Troncalli.
He did make me promise that he would not have to do this alone and I happily
volunteered you all to help out!  Please welcome Steve to this extremely
important position in our Association!

My son, Anders has agreed to step out from behind the screen and actually
become our Webmaster!  While I have been able to cobble things together
(with his help) for our website over the years, he has 
forgotten more about programming than I ever knew.....   He says I still 
have to run the Listserve because it takes a lot of attention/time that he
does not have (he also told me it would be hard for even an old man like me
to screw it up).  We will shortly see what really can be done website wise!
By the way, he lives in San Francisco and is always looking for a C38 to
sail on!

And how about this?
The reason I called Larry Malmberg and got into all this Commodore trouble
was to float a proposal for a 2011-13 get-together.  No one knows for
certain, but San Francisco's $270 million bid to host the America's Cup in
2013 looks pretty good given the home of the cup is the Golden Gate Yacht
Club and Redwood City, Oracle CEO Larry Ellison gets to make the location
decision.  I am told there are at least four and 
probably more C38s based in and around San Francisco.   Wouldn't it be 
fun if we scheduled a C38 Rendezvous to coincide with the America's Cup
races leading up to the big one in 2013?  Maybe we could get some of our
friends a bit further down the coast to bring their boats up if we can make
arrangements?  Maybe we could even get a few races of or own going???? Larry
Malmberg really likes the idea and maybe we can get both him and Steve
Smolinske to regal us with Trans Pac stories?

Please welcome Steve and Anders to key leadership positions in our
Organization.  Then, what do you think about a Rendezvous?

Regards,
Chuck Finn
Commodore
