Rives Potts presents: A Year in the life of Carina
R. Strother Scott on Tuesday December 18, 2012 04:57PM (2 comments)
A bluewater sailing adventure
Saturday January 12 - Hilton Garden Inn – Downtown Richmond
6:00-7:00 Cocktails, 7:00 Presentation
Join us to hear FBYC member Rives Potts share his adventures sailing Carina around the world last year. Carina raced in the Annapolis Newport Race, the Transatlantic Race, the Fastnet Race and finally the Sydney Hobart - and Carina did 3 Atlantic crossings in one 12 month period. Rives Potts is the Rear Commodore of the New York Yacht Club and was a grinder on Dennis Conner’s Freedom in a successful defense of the 1980 America’s Cup. He also sailed with Ted Turner on Tenacious in the infamous Fastnet Race of 1979 that Turner won but 15 racers on other boats died. His sailing resume is as good as it gets. Potts, raised in Richmond,Va., came of age in the sport in the 1970s and sailed on such name-brand boats as Recluta (Walter Hanson), Southern Star (Jim Mullen), Running Tide (Al Van Meter), Nirvana (Marvin Green), Condor (Bob Bell) and Kialoa (Jim Kilroy). Beyond Freedom, he has sailed in four other America’s Cups.
For the last 15 years, Potts campaigned his Carina, a 48 foot sloop design by McCurdy & Rhodes and launched in 1969 for Dick and Richard Nye. On her, Potts won the Bermuda Race in 2010 (St. David’s Lighthouse Division Trophy), the Northern Ocean Racing Trophy (NORT) that same year and the Mosbacher Trophy given to the NYYC Yachtsman of the Year.

Annual Meeting On-line Registration issues
Jonathan T Moody on Friday November 4, 2011 05:16PM
We have been having trouble with online registration - and finally - sort of - have it working again.
- Some people have been able to register for CCV and pay this afternoon.
- Others have registered - selected dinners to buy - but they don't show up on the Payment Page- and they get an error when they pay - because they are paying for nothing.
- Please register if you plan on coming. If necessary - just don't add the dinners to buy - but please put a note in the Comment Box that you will be paying for X number of dinners at the door.
- If all else fails - simply email Jon Moody that you want a reservation.

Stingray - Ice
R. Strother Scott on Thursday September 1, 2011 04:22PM
The ice machine at FBYC is non-functional and that ice has melted. FBYC will be buying adequate ice for the parties, but please get whatever ice you will be needing for your boat before you get to the Club.
Stingray Point Regatta Electrical Update
R. Strother Scott on Thursday September 1, 2011 04:20PM
As of this moment the electricity is on in Deltaville but still not yet working at FBYC or at Stove Point. The latest report from Va Power is the FBYC service should come back on Saturday afternoon and evening between 5-11PM but we aren't counting on it.
FBYC has rented three generators. The first is a large 80KW generator which is being installed at 3PM today. It will power everything needed on the FBYC Clubhouse side of our property. The second generator is a smaller 6KW generator which will enable us to use the hoist on Jackson Creek for launching J-24's. A third generator powers the water system at the East Bath House. There is no generator plan at this time for Fannie's House, the docks, or the East Bath House hot water heaters.
The combination of these generators will provide power for water, lights, the kitchen at the Main Clubhouse, the music, and the bar for the entire weekend. Our shower facilities will be limited, and we are not sure if we can get water service to the docks.
We have 48 boats registered and are expecting about 175 people for the seated dinner on Saturday Night.
The full agenda from the party Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings through the Labor Day Cookout and Awards Sunday are a GO!!
See you 'all this weekend. Let the party begin!
Good Night Irene!

Bermuda high boosts spirits
George W. Burke on Thursday March 3, 2011 05:22PM
If the purpose of the annual FBYC Bermuda high party is to boost the spirits of our winter-bound sailors, this year's version provided that boost and more. Hosted by Nica and Jeremy Waters, and held at the home of Lyons and George Burke, the 2011 Bermuda high party delivered a unique party atmosphere amid the glow of tropical print table arrangements, one of a kind photography from the Waters' year in the Bahamas, and signature drinks and food (think Margaritas, PainKillers and more), with the music of the islands in the background. 60 members and guests attended, and they all left cured of the winter doldrums. We're sorry if you missed it. Come next year!
Bermuda High Party!

Winter Program 2011 - Member Highlights!
January 29, 2011 from 4-7 p.m.
From family cruising in a small boat to hard-core racing in Sonars and J-24s against some of the worlds best sailors at New York Yacht Clubs harbor court facility in Newport, Rhode Island, fellow members did some pretty neat stuff in 2010. Come spend an evening with us as we celebrate some of the diverse interests represented in our great club. The Waters family will begin by talking about their 8-month cruising sabbatical to the Bahamas (and south), and after an intermission with light refreshments, the sailors and fans who represented FBYC at the New York Yacht Club Invitational Cup Qualifying Series will speak. From cruisers to racers, from families to singles, from children to ancient mariners, there is something for everyone!
The Fishing Bay store will be open for purchase of cold weather apparel at the event.

You always knew FBYC was an important part of your summer life, from the sailing to the socializing. Come out to hear some fellow members share their experiences with two very different aspects of sailing make FBYC a part of your winter months as well. From family cruising in a small boat to hard-core racing in Sonars and J-24s against some of the worlds best sailors at New York Yacht Clubs Harbour Court facility in Newport, Rhode Island, fellow members did some pretty neat stuff in 2010. Come spend an evening with us as we celebrate some of the diverse interests represented in our great club. You never know how you might be inspired!
Please join us for the Winter Program at Grace Covenant Presbyterian Church, Saturday, January 29, from 4-7 pm. The Waters family will begin by talking about their 8-month cruising sabbatical to the Bahamas (and south), and after an intermission with light refreshments, the sailors and fans who represented FBYC at the New York Yacht Club Invitational Cup Qualifying Series will speak. From cruisers to racers, from families to singles, from children to ancient mariners, there is something for everyone!
The Fishing Bay store will be open for purchase of cold weather apparel at the event.

Fall Cruise Aboard the USS George Washington
Gilbert L. Miles on Friday December 28, 2007 02:18PM
Recently, Fishing Bay Yacht Club Members, Gil, Kay and Ashley Miles were aboard the super carrier USS George Washington as guests of her captain and Kyle Reynolds.
Boarding at 0430 on a beautiful Virginia morning, the 1200 foot carrier slipped from her birth and traveled 60 nm to sea where the guests were treated to an awesome show of American Naval firepower. The air show that followed was up close-up and personally very inspiring.
The F-18 Super Hornets were breath taking in their maneuvers. Every form of roll, turn, vertical stall, and inverted flight at super sonic speed was eye-popping. The heroic Iraqi-Veteran Naval Aviators demonstrated numerous touch-and-goes on the flight deck within tossing distance. At several points the Hornets screamed over, just above the deck, breaking the sound barrier. Absolutely unbelievable!
The USS George Washington was open for inspection. From the engine room to the captains chair on the bridge, the day was glorious in every respect. She is a wondrous machine, meticulously maintained and ready for action. We are so proud of our Navy, its men and women, and Kyle for taking us aboard his ship.
Rear Commodore Clinard survives Hurricane Dean
R. Strother Scott on Monday August 20, 2007 05:15PM
Noel has been on a well earned family vacation on the south west coast of Jamaica this week. His trip home was delayed as it coincided with the planned arrival of Hurricane Dean. His location is marked with a white dot. The Red areas sustained hurricane force winds, whereas the orange experienced tropical force winds.
His Blackberry worked throughout and reported the following excerpts...
"We are moving to the most solid manor house with 20 others, on a limestone bluff 100 feet above the sea. If the storm passes north of the island the mountains should protect us. If south and we get the leading edge, it could be hairy. We are postponed to a Wednesday departure and if the whole infrastructure beaks down mudslides, trees, power) we could have trouble getting over the mountains to Montego Bay. But we preferred to stay with people we knew in remote surroundings than face possible disorder in Montego Bay."
On-line Registrations set up for more events
R. Strother Scott on Thursday June 14, 2007 01:00PM (1 comment)
I have moved a few events to the top left corner of the Home Page and set up on-line registration for others.
The Long Distance Race and Family Picnic now has the
Event Social Announcment on the event page and we have on-line registration for this popular event.
The First Annual Sail Against SIDS is being held on June 30 - the same day as 2 other FBYC events - and it is set up to
provide the "social funcion" for all the events. During the day, the Juniors will have a
Team Racing Clinic and Regatta , and the Offshore Division will have
Long Distance Series 3 - Moonlight Race
. Sail against SIDS is going to have dinner start for the Moonlight Racers only at 5PM.
All three events have on-line registration - and you can buy Dinner at the Sail Against SIDS on all three registrations. Matt Braun will be in charge and will cross check all three events in order to get his head counts.
If that is not enough activity, then please plan to drop by Heritage Days in Downtown Deltaville, where FBYC will have a booth - probably with a sailboat. No registration required!!
And about 10 minutes ago, a youngster named Mr. Patrick Penwell registered for the Virginia State Junior Championships. He became the 3,000th Registrant in our system. Congratulations!
As in prior year's the Leukemia Cup does not use our on-line system. Instructions and forms for registration are available at the Leukemia Cup event page.

Racing Rules and Race Management Seminar
Sharon H Bauer on Monday March 14, 2005 12:19PM
Twenty-eight stayed for the afternoon session on Race Management. The session focused on the mechanics leading up to the start of the race and the start itself. (I think I heard a hint that he might be willing to join us next year to discuss what happens after the start.) Communication, team work, ability to focus on the job, and cohesivness of the group were highlighted as keys to a good committee team. He also reminded us that the PRO's toughest job can be recruiting his/her team. (Call a PRO and volunteer today!)
It was a long day -- 9:00 to 4:30 -- but one attendee said it best, "I learned so much, I couldn't believe it was 4:30."
Our many many thanks go to John and his wife Lin for treking up from their home in Hampton to provide this service to the Fishing Bay racing community. Additional thanks go to Strother Scott and Scott & Stringfellow for the venue and Eric Powers for the overhead projector.

Urbanna Weekend Racing
Neil R. Alley on Wednesday May 26, 2004 06:36AM
The Urbanna Race is the the first leg of this year's Long Distance Series. The series' winners in each participating class will get a worthy award consisting of a Weems and Plath gimbal mounted lamp and placque, so, get off to a good start in the Series this weekend and/or at least assure your chances over the duration by at least competing on Saturday. These four races are a good test of local knowledge and a little more challenge to seamanship and strategy, so besides a nice trophy, some unique Club pride goes to the winners!
Strother Scott, Jr. and Lina have agreed to run shuttle service for us after the race on Saturday, as they did last year. As we all know gas isn't cheap and they deserve rewards for their efforts, so, besides "thank you's", tips for their time and service are the least we can do. Open up your wallets!!!
RRYC is acting PRO for the races on Sunday, and as such, are responsible for the final NOR's/SSI's. The instructions for the Sunday races essentially parallel those in our event book (Non-Spin though will have both one and two headsail classes), but there are additional instructions if you have need for dock space, etc. Their instructions are the official ones and are attached.
Please, join in the social cookout they are hosting at RRYC after the racing on Sunday. The format for this is: bring one dish to share with others, and bring your own meat for grilling.
Have a great sailing weekend!! Randy
