From the Commodore
What an exciting summer we have had for San Jose
Sailing Club. Lots of cruises, great meetings topped
off with the annual picnic at Shoreline including the
Commodore's Regatta won by Brad and Cheryl
Belleville (for the second year running), and even
some service events to the community including the
Coastal Cleanup and the Wheelchair Regatta. I love
the diversity of places we have cruised to, in just the
past few months, quietly cruising up the Petaluma
River (trying to stay out of the mud - mostly
successfully), Fourth of July in the Delta, Sausalito and
the Home Run Cruise at ATT Park/South Beach
Marina. Whether you like quiet or crowds, there has
been something for everyone.
listed on the back of this newsletter. Each year about
this time, a nominating committee is formed to fill the
positions for the next year. When someone calls to ask
if you would be interested in serving on the board,
please be open to the opportunity. There is one
meeting per month, usually just before the club
meeting. If you want to slowly become involved,
being a "member at large" to the board is a great place
to start. You are a voting member of the board and
your opinions are heard. The cruises are great because
the people leading them are passionate about sailing
and providing a great weekend opportunity for the
club. If you have not led a cruise yet, I am hoping that
2015 will be your year to try something new. There is
lots of support from the boating coordinator and the
board.
A big thank you goes out to Brad Belleville who filled
in for me last month in writing this column. I have so
appreciated the support from San Jose Sailing Club
members in life events, and sailing events. I have felt
the encouragement to try new things (such as becoming
commodore) and also the support to make the new
things not as scary. Be sure to talk to Women's Sailing
Seminar attendees about their fabulous weekend at
Island Yacht Club. San Jose Sailing Club was well
represented by Sharon Babb, Cheryl Belleville, Diane
Stein, Nicole Jorgensen and Wendy Chen. We might
have some new members interested in our club from
their time at the seminar. Continue to hand out
business cards or post SJSC brochures at your marina
and talk to your neighbors about our club. Let Diane
Stein know if you need business cards or brochures.

SJSC Board Meeting Minutes
September 9th, 2014
The SJSC board meeting of September 9th, 2014 was
held at Hobee's Restaurant 21267 Stevens Creek Blvd,
Cupertino. Marsha Dyslin (Commodore) called the
meeting to order at 6:15 PM. In attendance were
Marsha Dyslin (Commodore), Paul Anderson
(Treasure), Diane Stein (membership), Jim Stein
(ViceCommodore/Boating Coordinator), Cheryl
Belleville (Secretary), Mike Dyslin
(Member-At-Large), Jim Catto, and Jack O'Loughlin.
The board unanimously approved the minutes of July
15th, 2014.
Treasurer report: Paul reported the club is in good
shape. Paul reported on PICYA and COTY. PICYA
Wilder award application is due soon. Coastal Clean
up is September 20th, Jim will send out a flyer on
clean up information. We gain COTY points for
participation. Wheelchair Regatta is September 27th.
Paul is planning on attending.
During the
Mini-conference at Moss Landing, Paul spoke on
paper clubs. The focus at the conference was on how
to help clubs losing their leases. Commodores ball is
in January at St Francis Yacht Club. The cost is $80
per person and we gain COTY points for attending.
Currently we have just under 200 COTY points.
Membership: Diane has contacted 4 of the new
members to remind them of the picnic. Diane reported
on potential new member out of Santa Cruz, Tony
Fernandez. So far we have 5 new members for 2014.
Diane plans to ask Shoreline if we can place brochures
for the club. Cheryl suggested placing the brochure on
the bulletin board in the bathrooms. Diane followed
up with another suggestion of members placing
October 2014 Backwind
brochures on boards at our Marinas. There is a JW
House volunteer event scheduled for October.
Boating: Jim reported on the cruises from this summer.
Sausalito Cruise had 6 boats with a dinner out and
walking tour of town. The Home Run Cruise had 10
boats Friday night with an additional 4 on Saturday, as
well as drive ins. The Pittsburg Cruise had 5 boats and
drive ins. The seafood festival had lots of good food
and Jim Stein commended the city for its hospitality
and safety measures.
Upcoming cruises:
Hunter/Mariposa Yacht Club is scheduled for October
11/12 and Golden Gate Yacht Club November 7-9.
More information to come next month.
Meeting: The board had a conference call with Carl
regarding the October General meeting. Due to a
change in venue availability there is a possibility of
changing next months board meeting and general
meeting (October 7th and 9th respectively), or to keep
the meeting days as scheduled and change the venue.
Jim reported on the upcoming Shoreline Regatta.
There are 6 maybe 7 boats signed up for racing.
Shoreline offered to man a committee boat, give a
skippers meeting before the race and tips and pointers
during the race, following up with critique after the
race for $50. Jim suggested the club pay the fee, Paul
moved in favor, Marsha seconded the motion, all were
in favor.
Old Business: The board revisited the idea of raising
dues. Marsha began with reviewing the spreadsheet of
best guesses as to who may drop out with increases. It
is about a wash between raising rates with possible
dropouts, or keeping the rates as they are.
Upon review Mike mentioned that if the point of
raising dues was to have more money, with possible
dropouts we wont achieve the goal. Marsha brought up
the idea of raising the dues adding value to the club.
Cheryl mentioned that raising dues would add value to
the club and make it more visible in the community,
thus attracting more members and increasing
participation. Mike suggested we raise the rates and
review at the end of 2015 and revise. Paul said we
needed to research how to raise the rates and what we
would do with the extra funds (i.e. paying $50 to
Shoreline, WSS scholarship). Diane suggested board
members come up with a few ideas to bring to the next
meeting. Board will revisit the ongoing discussion and
take a vote at the October meeting.

SJSC ANNUAL PICNIC 2014
On Sunday September 14th
the SJSC gathered
together on a beautiful late summer day at Shoreline
Lake Park in Mountain View to tell sea stories, eat,
drink, mingle, sail, and generally just have a good
time. We got our usual location up on the little hill
overlooking the lake.
In all we had about 27 hearty sailors attending,
including a nice couple who are prospective new
members. A pleasant surprise of the day was when
Carl and Sharon Babb arrived. It shows how resilient
Carl is. He used his ankle-protecting scooter to climb
the small hill to our picnic site. Carl is valiantly
following his doctors orders to keep all weight off the
ankle. We are pulling for you Carl. Hang in there!
After socializing over drinks and snacks we held the
club meeting from 11:30 AM to Noon.
Then it was time to have lunch. The potluck items
were excellent and plentiful. There was great variety.
No one left the buffet hungry!
daughter Kayley (who just turned one year old). The
new couple who attended were Cathy and Craig (or
Gregg) and they are prospective members. Many in
the club talked with them and explained details of our
many activities. We would be very happy to have
them join the club. They have a sailboat at Lake
Tahoe.
One of the highlights of the day was the Annual
Regatta. Three crews competed in the race. They
were: Brad and Cheryl Belleville, Nicole Jorgensen
and Bernie Comeau Jr., Marcial Portilla and Jim Stein.
The winners, for the second year in a row, were Brad
and Cheryl.
Congratulations!
They showed
outstanding sailing skills. Nicole and Bernie came in
second. Great Job! Marcial and Jim came in third.
The officiating of the race was handled by Andrew, a
sailing instructor from the Shoreline Aquatic Center.
He did a GREAT job and it added a very professional
touch. There were a total of five heats around the
course. Andrew set up the course buoys, did a whiteboard briefing for crews before the race, manned the
committee boat during the race, and scored each heat.
During the warmup lap around the course Jim and
Marcial tried a secret sailing maneuver to gain a speed
Marcial and Maribel Portilla brought their son Marcial
and daughter Mimi so we got a chance to meet them
along with Mimi's boyfriend Steven. Also, Tammy
and Bernie's daughter Ashley was there with her cute

advantage. It was called 'Jibing with both crew
members on the same side of the boat'. Unfortunately
it didn't work well and caused their boat to capsize.
Andrew then sped over in his motorized inflatable and
quickly helped them right the boat. No one was hurt
except for the pride aspect. At the end of the race
Andrew gave us the scores and de-briefed us on
results. It was a heck of a lot of fun. Brad and Cheryl
will receive a 'very expensive bottle of wine' as their
winner's prize at the next club meeting.

After the regatta we sat around talking and enjoying
the weather. Great friends, great food, sailing,
interesting conversation, and perfect weather made for
a really enjoyable day. I am already looking forward
to next year's picnic. (Marcial and I are talking with
Larry Ellison's engineers about some modifications
we can use to boost our speed on the Catalina 14 for
next years race).

The Safety Corner by Eric Jorgensen, SJSC
Safety Officer
Safety at the dock
Time has a nasty way of creeping up on all of us. We
don’t think about it too much until we are in the midst
of some mundane activity that we have done so many
times that we take it for granted and then WHAM!
Time finds some unmistakable way of reminding us
that maybe we aren’t quite as quick, agile or fit as we
used to be. Boarding sailboats or bathing one’s cat are
examples of activities that would fall into that
category. Since this is a sailing newsletter I will
refrain from writing a how-to article on the proper
method of bathing one’s cat and instead concentrate
on discussing possible ways to prevent father time
from reminding us that he is creeping up on us while
we are boarding our boats.
Safely boarding a boat can be broken down into three
equally important stages. First, clear access to the
point of embarkation is critical. This means that you
should not have sheets, dock lines, power cords,
internet cables, water hoses, boxes, bags, cats
(especially cats!) or anything else sitting on the deck
or on the dock where you are intending to get on or
off of the boat (Fig 1). Stumbling on a line while
walking along the dock is annoying but stumbling on
a dock line when you are halfway between the dock
and your boat can be downright dangerous.
The second important piece of the boarding puzzle is
that there should be appropriate devices to ensure a
safe and easy boarding. If you have a small boat with
low freeboard then you can probably just step directly
from the dock to the cockpit through the lifeline gate
while holding onto the lifeline stanchion. If you have
a larger boat with higher freeboard or a tall dock then
you would be wise to enlist the aid of some device to
climb up or down to the deck of the boat safely. In
the case of a Mediterranean mooring situation a
gangplank or passerelle is essential. All boarding
devices should incorporate a handrail or some means
to steady oneself while embarking or disembarking
and it goes without saying that any boarding device
must be solidly and securely fixed to either the boat or
the dock.
The biggest complaint about boarding aids is that they
tend to be cumbersome and therefore difficult to stow
when not in use. Fortunately there are many different
types and styles available so an adequate solution can
usually be found. The following list describes some
of the available options:
Foldable step ladder- The simplest and
easiest to obtain, this includes anything
from a purpose made, foldable, single step,
marine boarding step to a small step ladder
acquired at a hardware store. Keep in mind
that these tend to vary widely in quality and
stability so choose wisely. (Fig 2)

ladders can work well as boarding aids at
the dock as long as they are properly and

styles and sizes from homemade DIY types
(Fig 5) to plastic rotomolded commercial
models (Fig 6) to custom fabricated stairs
utilizing carbon fiber, stainless steel and teak.
All steps should have good non-skid treads
and be bolted or screwed down on the dock.
Any steps taller than a single step should have
integral handrails. The main drawback to dock
steps is that they are generally not portable
and are therefore only available for use at
your home slip.

solidly mounted to the boat. Telescoping
types allow for varying dock heights and
can also be used as actual swim ladders.

of the boat- Many types are available ranging
from rigid plastic models (Fig 7) to inflatable
fender types such as the “Fender Step” (Fig
8). I have also seen nice looking homebuilt
steps made of wood that hang off of the toe
rail and have foam on the back edge to
prevent marring the side of the boat.
•
•
Gangplanks- Gangplanks, although not
common in this area, are one of the best
boarding aids available. They can be
Fig 9
made in any size and are often telescoping
or folding to minimize on-deck storage
issues while maximizing utility. Custom
carbon fiber gangplanks can weigh as
little as 15 lbs and support over 800 lbs of
people and equipment over an 8 foot span
(Fig 9).
The biggest advantage to
gangplanks is their stability and their
bility to easily load the boat since carts
can be rolled directly from the dock to the
cockpit.
•
expensive, accordion boarding stairs are an excellent
aid to getting on and off the boat. They compensate
for different dock heights, stow compactly and are
very easy to use (Fig 10).
Passerelles- Basically scaled up
gangplanks utilized on larger ships. They
are usually deployed with hydraulic or
powered cable systems.
Basket with a block and tackle hanging
off of a davit or a boom. This is an
elevator for cats. Additionally employed
as the safest way to transfer heavy articles
on or off the boat.
The third and final critical stage for safe boarding is
technique. First, be aware. Think about what you are
doing before you commit. Different people have
differing physical abilities. If the boat is set up for
someone who is considerably more agile than you
then don’t be afraid or embarrassed to ask for
assistance or fetch a boarding step from your own boat
if you have one. Believe me when I say that it beats
the alternative (getting hurt). Next, think of the
activity like a mountain climber would; always have
three points of contact and always look ahead for the
next hold. Keep one hand and two feet or two hands
and one foot on the boat at all times. Lastly, don’t
even THINK about carrying stuff onboard while
boarding. Put it on the boat while standing on the
dock or else have someone hand it to you once you are
safely aboard. This is especially important when
carrying bottles of wine (or cats)!
Remember: none of us are
getting any younger and an
extra piece of equipment on
the deck is a small price to
pay to allow us all to
continue to sail safely and
comfortably on our boats!
Fair winds
passages!

Dorade Down
By Dale Bagnell
the deck, so the first thing I did was move both blocks
so that the jib sheet lines weren't flapping around close
the vents.
Sometimes when we go sailing we break stuff. Actually
change that . Whenever we go sailing we always break
stuff and sometimes it gets expensive. Rather than think
of myself as someone that pushes their boat a little too
hard I like to think that I'm continually testing my
sailing vessel and uncovering her flaws and fixing
things so she always getting better . Whether they are in
fact her flaws or my flaws I usually end up with stuff to
repair when I get back to my slip.
Take last weekend for example. I was tacking across the
SF Bay and a jib sheet line to my staysail took a wrap
on the Dorade vent and boom –one broken vent box. As
I looked at it more closely I realized that the top of the
Dorade had broken in several places, so this was not
going to be fixed with some glue and a couple of
screws.
The Dorade box was broken in
several places when a loaded jib sheet
wrapped around the vent
But first things first. Why had this happened? I had a
look at the way I had run my sheet lines and the block
was located very close to the Dorade. Maybe the
proximity of the block contributed to the line wrap.
Lukily I had another set of shackles further forward on
October 2014 Backwind
I moved the blocks on the jib lines forward
about 6 feet to see if that would prevent future
wraps of the vent when tacking
Now that I had an ounce of prevention in place it was
time to get back to repairing the Dorade box. I removed
the brass vent and carefully pried off the pieces of the
top. Luckily the box itself was not damaged so it looked
like I just needed to fashion a new top.
carefully removed the broken
parts of the Dorade Box and
cleaned it out inside making
sure nothing else was broken
I made some measurements and headed off to the
specialty hardwood supplier in my area. I had a nasty
surprise waiting for me. Have you priced quality
10 of 15
sustainably grown teak lumber recently? Bring your
wallet and a co-signer. Seventy-five dollars later I had
a small teak board the size of my two hands settled into
the front passenger seat that I drove carefully back to
the marina. After measuring several times I cut out the
new top leaving lots of room on all 4 sides to work the
wood so that it would blend in with the sides of the box.
I sanded the top and the four sides of the box to ensure
that it was a good fit and then I applied a thick paste of
epoxy mixed up with some microfiber to both surfaces
and set the top in place. I sat a heavy can on top of it
and let it set up overnight. The epoxy kicked in after a
half hour, but I wanted to give it some time to develop
a good bond as I had a lot of shaping to do the following
day. I also was in the mood for a cocktail or three to
take the sting out of my recent teak purchase
I drilled a series of holes inside the general
shape and used a jig saw to connect the dots
I wanted the fit to be very tight around the vent fitting to
minimize any play in the vent so I cut it a little small
and used my Dremel tool to sand it until the fit was
perfect
used my Dremel tool to sand
Measure twice and cut once
In the morning I carefully cut out a hole to mount the
vent fitting. I drilled a series of holes inside the general
shape and used a jig saw to connect the dots.

Now for the hard part, getting the top to match the sides.
I had picked a piece of 1X8 lumber that had a similar
grain and color so it was really a matter of sanding each
side carefully and rounding the corners to make it match
the Dorade box. It took a cople of hours but gradually
the imperfections were smoothed out and the teak
sawdust took on that nice oily quality that showed it
was ready for the finish.

I used a power sander and hand files and
sandpaper to get the new top into shape.

The Dorade Box with 6 coats of Cetol and the
vent reinstalled
After cleaning the box with acetone to remove any excess
oil I painted the first of 3 coats of Cetol Natural on. I let
this dry overnight and applied 3 more coats of Cetol
gloss over the next couple of days, sanding it lightly
between the last 2 coats. I've found that a couple of coats
of clear Cetol helps preserve the finish and I will try to
add one more coat of clear ever year after a light sanding.
I was pleased with the results and the total cost was less
than $100. Is the box as good as new? Well, maybe. The
vent seems very strong and the blocks have been moved
to avoid a repeat of the problem but something is nagging
at me. I think I'll add a stainless steel vent guard to
protect the box as well but that's a project for another
day.
