Commodore’s Report

“Time flies when you ‘re having fun”

I’m sure many of you have heard and

seen the phrase written and said many

times before, but I cant believe we are

heading into our next AGM as I embark

on my next term (if elected) as com-

modore.

As always much has been happening in

and around the club while the weather

is cooler and the wind, well…..as I write

it is bucketing down and I’m happy to

be sitting inside. The undercroft boat

storage area has been cleaned and

ready for a new season. To free up

some space we plan to store the club

Muddies in their own compound out-

side the area to give members more

space. The plan is to increase the num-

ber of showers in the male change

rooms, while providing a new extrac-

tion/ventilation system. Lastly, we are

getting quotes to complete a bit more

landscaping around the club to provide

security and storage for more mem-

bers. All of these works will require a

lot of labor. To assist in making this

happen we need the assistance of our

membership to enable costs to be kept

to a minimum, so stay tuned.

Last weekend the 14’s held their fund-

raiser to kick off the 2020 worlds re-

gatta. It was a great night with many

laughs and fun held by all. A big thanks

to all the members that supported the

event and got into the spirit by dress-

ing up and dancing the night away. For

those that weren’t there missed a

great night with the launching of the

I14 2020 promo Movie. Just makes you

want to go sailing. To begin the promo-

tion the WA fleet are sending 3 boats

to the 2018 worlds in San Francisco.

Good luck to all those involved and I’m

sure their will be many stories told up-

on their return.

Just like most championship periods

the club this year has the pleasure of

hosting the Herons for their Australian

Championship. This is a great oppor-

tunity for the class to build their num-

bers and for the club to again show

case how we do things at PDSC. More

details on the championship will be

released in the coming weeks so stay

tuned.

As we draw to the end of the club fi-

nancial year and AGM I would like to

take this opportunity to thank the

committee for their dedication and

commitment for helping me guide the

club through season 2017/18. Just like

most years at the club we are faced

with our challenges and without the

support of our committee and mem-

Andrew Wilson

bership it would make a tough job

even harder. With the change of the

sailing season sees some of the

committee stepping down. Thank

you to Amanda and Judy for their

contribution on the committee over

the past seasons. Thank you also to

Jan Thomas for stepping up as Sec-

retary for the last three years while

we had no one to fill the position.

Lastly some big thanks and a dip of

my hat to Mike Dean for his contri-

bution as Treasurer over the last

two years. This is by no means a

small job and Mike has taken it

onboard and made it his own. This

leaves the club without a Treasurer

going into season 2018/19 but like

previous years will hopefully be

filled at the AGM.

See you all next week at the AGM

Commodore Andrew Wilson

Past Events (A little known fact): Did you know that Ian James (Sabre Sailor) has bought a Heron, which he will sail with his Grand-daughter. Ian has sailed a Heron before at a Na-tional Championship – way back in 1983/84. He finished a respectful 16th overall out of 63 competitors. The class is expecting several the past champions to make the trek over from the East and try to their luck, hopefully we can have a WA boat be the successor. Also, a note we will be in the need of Volunteers over the Christmas Period, so please if you have a spare day or two please come on down and lend a hand in assisting this great club and the Heron Associa-tion.

Javelin Travels Javelin South Pacific Championship

Easter 2018

Takapuna Boating Club

Auckland, New Zealand

Five PDSC Javelins made the trip to Takapuna: the Commodores, Dale and Paul, Richard and Enfys, Billy and Dan and even the Fat Boys decided it was time for an annual sail. The venue was beautiful with a grassy lawn to rig on and a wide expanse of water upon which to sail. The weather was also beautiful but the breeze was a bit dodgy for yacht racing for those of us who haven’t lake sailed for a while.

The container caused some stress for Greg but he managed to sort it out with the help of the Kiwis who parked it in a public carpark. Lucky there were no rangers on the prowl over Easter. The training day had not a breath of wind but we reassembled our boats and had a great swim on the race-course nonetheless.

The racing commenced the following day with an invitation race in zero knots of breeze but four knots of cur-

rent, and the Fat Boys sealed their fate by drifting over the finish line first: their best result of the regatta. When the regatta proper started up Richard and Enfys showed remarkable resili-ence in different offshore breezes, finding ways to finish up front despite not everything going to plan. The rest of the fleet struggled with some good races and some bad. The timeout rule was inevitably tested and amended as it always is. I’m not really sure why it is ever inserted in small fleet events.

Coming into the final day, Richard and Enfys led the perennial Kiwi South Pa-cific champion Phil McNeil and crew for this regatta Craig Gilberd; with Dale and Paul in third, Billy, Dale and the Fat Boys tied for fifth, and the Commo-dores in double figures. With the breeze almost as fickle as Craig Gil-berd’s back, a crew swap was author-ized by the race committee with 16 year-old Holly McNeil substituting onto Phlipnhel. Luckily she never needed to learn how to trapeze over those last two races and with Richard and Enfys scoring a couple of their worst results,

TAKAPUNA NZ

Brief History

The Maori place name Takapuna originally referred to a freshwa-ter spring that flowed from the base of North Head into a swamp behind Cheltenham Beach. In 1841 the wife of Eruera Maihi Patuone sold 9500 acres of Auck-land's North Shore to the Crown. Referred to as Takapuna Parish, the North Shore was surveyed and subdivided in 1844. In 1851 Governor Grey gifted back to Pat-uone 110 acres between the inlet beside Barry's Point Road and Takapuna Beach to use until his death (1872). This area included a Māori settlement known as Waiwharariki, on the small Shoal Bay headland now crossed by Esmonde Road. The earliest subdivisions of farm-land for suburban development were the "Hurstmere" estate in 1886 and the "Pupuke" Estate in 1889. The Takapuna and Milford Beach areas, as well as the land surrounding Lake Pupuke soon became popular spots for wealthy businessmen building summer homes to entertain in a rural surrounding, and eventual-ly, many moved here permanent-ly, commuting to work in Auck-land via ferry.

South Pacific Championships (Continued) Phlipnhel managed to win its fourth South Pacs. Richard and Enfys re-tained second position, Dale and Paul finished in third, Fat Boys sixth, Billy and Dan seventh, and the Commo-dores 11th. Richard and Enfys sailed brilliantly in difficult conditions and it was a shame they didn’t capitalize fully.

As usual in this fleet, the sailing was conducted in a fun spirit and the ca-maraderie on shore was excellent. Takapuna proved itself to be a nice holiday venue with club volunteers making us welcome. The PDSC burgee was presented to TBC at the presen-tation.

Thanks must go to Greg Moore for organizing everything for the trip and shouldering all the logistical stress. Also, thanks to Missy Cochrane for taking a heap of photos from the start boat, as well as to Christine

McGregor, Dixie Moore and Leslie Devine for looking after us all during the regatta. It was a great Easter sail-ing.

Preparations are well under way for

arguably the biggest regatta to be

hosted at PDSC – the International

14 World Championship. This will

encompass the World’s Team Racing

from the 29th – 31st Dec 2019 and

then the main World Championship

event from the 2nd – 10th Jan 2020.

We are expecting 60-70 boats from

the United Kingdom, Canada, United

States, Japan, Italy, Germany, maybe

France and of course a large showing

from all over Australia. This will

equate to approximately 120-140

sailors. Including their families plus

the race management team, on- and

off-water support crews, volunteers

and members, the club is going to be

buzzing!!

The regatta is only 18 months away

and there is lots of preparation to

do. We are keen to not only put on a

good sailing regatta, but really show-

case our beautiful family-friendly

welcoming sailing club and our

beautiful City, complete with fantas-

tic Western Australian summer sun-

shine and sea breezes. You may

have seen the logo and flags that

have been designed. Soon we will

have a website and you will be able

to follow us on Facebook. An organ-

ising committee with representation

from the 14 WA Association, PDSC

Management and other passionate

PDSC members has been formed as

follows:

Chairperson: Hannah Wilson Secretary: Graeme Everett On-Water Race Management:

Andrew Wilson Social: Scott Johnson & David

Promotion: Ian Furlong Canteen/Bar: Lyn Devine Competitor Liaison: Stuart Sloss Club Facilities: Greg Moore Sponsorship: Hannah Wilson Treasurer: Drew Farrar The committee will be meeting monthly to ensure adequate plan-ning for such a huge event. Some of the current focuses are promotion including development of a promo-tional video; developing a sponsor-ship prospectus; finalising a venue for the presentation night and estab-lishing the international race com-mittee including an international jury, a requirement for hosting a World Championship under World Sailing regulations. Some of the or-ganising committee portfolios will require significant work and sub-committees will be needed. We wel-come any ideas and input from members. If you have some exper-tise that you would like to share with the organising committee, please get in touch. This is going to be a fantas-tic event and we hope the PDSC

membership will get behind it and help make this mammoth event one to remember. Finally, we wish the best of luck for

our PDSC members travelling to San

Francisco next month to compete in

the 2018 Worlds at the Richmond

Yacht Club – Rear Commodore Stu-

art Sloss, Immediate Past Commo-

dore Graeme Everett and our Com-

modore Andrew Wilson joined by

two past PDSC members, brothers

Courtney and Elliot Mahar. Our WA

team will be spreading the word of

Perth 2020, showing the promotional

video and selling Perth for a fantastic

family holiday destination. Following

the San Francisco regatta, we will

share the I14 Perth Worlds promo-

tional video on our website and Face-

book and planning will be in full

swing!

Dynamic Duo Invade Gotham

The adventure began when four

boats were carefully packed into a

shipping container at Phil’s yard in

Nedlands and so began the journey.

As it happened, the journey was also

a historical path which eventually led

to the amalgamation of the Interna-

tional and Australian fleets in 1996.

The young PDSC team consisted of:

Phil Harris

Luke (Robin) Devine

Bill Devine

Garry Sloss

Tony Carr

Darryl Dedman

Jim Merton

Anthony Merton

Graeme Everett

Darryl Everett

Kevin Doig (Team Manager)

Fred Everett (Team Psychologist)

The race course was set from a start

line just west of Alcatraz Island with

the top mark positioned just under

the Golden Gate Bridge. The scene

was set for some exhilarating racing

against a breathtaking backdrop.

The Australian 14 Footers dominated

with a superior lightweight design and

larger sail area however the Interna-

tional 14s made up with expert boat

handling and skill to match the Aus-

sies. The Internationals were also su-

perior at bottom mark roundings

The year is 1989 and the legendary

Caped Crusaders flee the Bat Cave and

invade Gotham City in the interest of

public safety.

OK, not so but replace Caped Crusad-

ers with Dynamic Duo (Phil Harris and

Luke Devine), Gotham City with San

Francisco and safety with mayhem.

Phil with his cape, and the Boy Won-

der in his underpants, proudly escorted

the Perth Dinghy team to the 1989 14

Footer Open World Championship at St

Francis Yacht Club on the iconic San

Francisco Bay.

where the Aussies finally realised the

benefits of a spinnaker chute and re-

triever system.

The fleet of 112 consisted of teams

from Australia, New Zealand, USA,

Canada, UK and Japan.

The WA boats found the Bay wind and

wave conditions similar to Perth how-

ever the strong tide did present some

new and interesting challenges.

In all, 26 boats made the trip from

Australia. Phil and Luke teamed up in

Dynamic Duo, Tony Carr and Darryl

Dedman in Zero, Jim and Anthony

Merton in JAM, Bill Devine and Gary

Sloss in Jo-Anne. Graeme Everett

hitched a ride on a Queensland boat

aptly named Reckless and Darryl Ever-

ett joined forces with Victorian Steven

Edmunds on Atomic. David Lugg was

living in NSW at the time and teamed

up with John (Demo) DeMantfort to

finish a very creditable fifth overall in

Maverick.

Brothers Andrew and Warwick Crisp

(originally from Perth) won the event

The proposed venture to enter the

Australian 14 Footers in the Open

World 14 Footer Championship to

be sailed in San Francisco was dis-

cussed at length at the recent An-

nual Conference Meetings. Various

points were agreed by the State

Delegates, summarised as follows:

We understand that the Champion-

ship will commence 1/9/89 and will

include one invitation race and the

usual seven championship races.

We understand that the measure-

ment “base parameters” for 14 Foot-

ers competing in this event will be

as per the Australian 14 Footer Con-

stitution and Rules i.e. The 14 Foot

Dinghy.

Phil Dawson from N.S.W. is respon-

sible for coordination of travel and

accommodation.

The transportation by ship of the

boats is to be organised by a com-

mittee including a representative

from each state.

We are proposing to send approx. 15

boats with crews and supporters

totalling approx. 50.

If anyone is interested in participat-

ing in this venture, please contact

your State Secretary for details and

record of your interest.

The PDSC Archives contain history

and memorabilia in many different

forms – newspaper cuttings, photo-

graphs, textiles, trophies, shields,

etc. Whilst fossicking through past

editions of Spraytalk, the following

article was discovered. It appeared

in the April 1983 edition and is titled

‘A Touch of History…..’. The author is

unknown.

Perth Dinghy Club

Season 1903-4

The past season, which was the ini-

tial one of the Perth Dinghy Club,

was highly successful, both financial-

ly and in the excellent racing which it

provided.

The Club was formed shortly after

the conclusion of the 1902-3 season,

and many, nay almost all the small

boat enthusiasts flocked to its stand-

ard, or perhaps it would be more

accurate to say burgee, with the re-

sult that the membership roll al-

ready totals over 40.

From the inception of the club until

last Christmas the secretarial duties

were in the able hands of Mr. S.E.

Uhde, and to his energy, together

with that of a keen and enthusiastic

committee, is due in no small meas-

ure the success achieved by the club

during its first season.

After Mr. Udhe’s resignation, the

reins of office were taken up by Mr.

F.E. Dew, who was assisted by the

committee, consisting of Messrs A.

Roche, C.W. Garland, H. Barton, W.

Hale and L. Joubert, with Mr. H.

Carter as commodore. In electing the

last-named gentleman, the members

showed a nice sense of discernment

in recognising the valuable services

rendered dinghy sailing in West Aus-

tralia by Mr. Carter.

With a member’s subscription of Five

Shillings and no entrance fee, it is not

to be supposed that the club require

a very larger ledger to keep their ac-

counts in, still a glance at the balance

sheet presented at the general

meeting discloses the fact that the

receipts totalled £17 1s. 6d., while

the expenditure amounted to £14

17s. 8d., 14 of which were given

away in prizes, leaving a credit bal-

ance of £2 3s. 10d.

October 24th was the date set down

for the initial race, and four starters,

viz., Ena, Jonah, Hero and Wonga,

came to the line. This race calls for no

comment as owing to the almost to-

tal absence of wind, only two fin-

ished, and they after 6.40p.m. the

race being declared off. “

Just as a matter of interest, £17.1s.

6d. would today be equal to about

$34.15 and £14.17s.8d would equal

about $29.77!!

Did You Know?

Kings Park is one of the largest inner city parks in the world and is visited by more than six million tourists each year — that’s three times the population of the State.

It’s also the location of the State War Memorial Precinct, which is the centrepiece of the ANZAC Day dawn service on April 25, as well as the Remembrance Day services at 11am on November 11 each year.

Here are some other interesting facts about our beloved Kings Park:

• Kings Park is larger than the world famous Central Park in New York

• Our park measures up at

400.6 hectares, whereas New York’s Central Park is 341 hectares.

• It was officially opened on

10 August 1895. The park was originally called Perth Park and was renamed in 1901 to King’s Park.

• The Botanic Garden has been a fixture in the park since 1962. It’s home to more than half of Australia’s 25,000 plant species.

• Jacob’s Ladder is a set of stairs located at the end of Cliff Street. It has 242 steps and is a dream for residents to exercise in the

www.bgpa.wa.gov.au/kings-park

early morning or at lunch time. Your legs will feel it the following day.

• There have been guides walks in the park since 1984. The volunteer guides cover all aspects of the park includ-ing the local Noongar names and traditions. Walks are varied according to the Noongar season Djilba-Kambarang (July–October) for the wildflower season; the Mukuru for May and June, and the Birak-Djeran for No-vember to April.

• The Kings Park Festival runs throughout September, and you can expect Live music concerts, outdoor exhibi-tions, guided walks and ac-tivities cater for all ages and interests. Some of the most beautiful trees in Kings Park will also be dressed to im-press — the highlight will be the Queen’s Tree which will be dressed in a truly regal outfit.

• Kings Park is within easy reach of our club and is well worth the visit any time of the year.

PDSC is completely volunteer operated. With-

out our volunteers, races would not be sailed,

results would not be recorded, the club

would not be cleaned or maintained, food
