In addition to physically building hulls, we've been receiving ISCA spare parts every day. Sails are in stock in huge quantities. You name it, parts are coming in by the pallet to support ISCA sailors. COMPLETE LIST

Note from ISCA Leadership:  The class finally has a plentiful supply of quality class-legal parts.  It is important to use only class-legal parts to both maintain the one-design aspect of our boat and support our builder, Zim, who has invested hundreds of thousands of dollars to start production.

Zim Sailing Goal:

Our goal remains to finish our first ISCA by the end of the month. In early April, we will start doing test sailing locally with ISCA sailors. By the end of April, we intend to be building one boat a day, and to start shipping to dealers across the country.

By May, we plan to be up to two ISCAs a day, building boats year around for the season.

From ISCA Leadership... 

The transition to a new builder has been smooth thanks to Zim's transparency and strong communication. They are dedicated to a long-term partnership and are focused on delivering the best products to our sailors to ensure the success of the class.  

WELCOME to our newest ISCA members … Trinidad and Tobago! 

Located at the southern tip of the Caribbean, the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago borders Grenada and Venezuela and lies close to South America northeast of Venezuela and northwest of Guyana.

These islands are well known for their African and Indian cultures. Their famous Carnival, Diwali and Hosan celebrations show a heritage that brings us steelpan, the limbo and musical styles such as calyposo, soca, rapso and more.

In addition to a wonderful heritage that welcomes visitors, they have an active Sailing Academy that encourages and promotes sailing on their beautiful Caribbean waters. 

Sounds like a beautiful venue to sail in as well as being a wonderful place to vacation.

A special WELCOME to our new ISCA members from the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago!!

Bay Waveland Yacht Club, Bay St. Louis, MS
 March 15-18, 2025

 by Gail Turluck

With only a few month’s notice, this event was moved from the Sarasota Sailing Squadron to Bay Waveland Yacht Club after two 2024 hurricanes, Helene and Milton, devastated Sarasota Sailing Squadron’s clubhouse, dock and parking facilities. Bay Waveland’s Todd, Anne and Clinton Edwards put their deep experience to work to cause a successful championship to be run. 

Most sailors arrived on March 8 to set up their boats and contemplate the Practice Race. However, the breeze was screaming and boats stayed on their dollies in the parking lot, save one.  The one boat that went out showed it was possible to survive, but moving to windward and tacking was tough. The Practice Race was canceled. Overnight a devastating cold front passed through the center of the U.S. with a big thunderstorm in Bay St. Louis bringing dozens of tornadoes and severe storms to the further north in Mississippi up to Illinois.  

Sunday dawned with a hairy forecast and conditions - wind NNW 18-25 and gusty with partly sunny skies and temperatures in the low 60’s. At the Skipper’s Meeting the Principal Race Officer described his method for determining whether or not races should be run in challenging conditions. He stated his primary consideration was the safety of the competitors. First, the skill level of competitors is evaluated. Second, local geography is considered, such as the fact that Bay St. Louis was exhibiting a water depth of 5-7 feet due to the wind blowing water out of the Bay into the Gulf and capsized Sunfish would stick gaffs into the Bay bottom with potential for equipment breakage. Third, does the OA have enough rescue boats on hand, and evaluation determined that there was a shortage of same. Fourth, would conditions drop, moderate or build, making all threats lessen or grow. A shore Postponement was called until 1130.  

At approximately 1115, there was a slight but recognizable drop in the wind speed and the P.R.O. went out on the Bay to measure conditions.   He determined the wind had moderated and dropped the shore Postponement. The fleet rigged and sailed out to the starting area. By the time all had assembled and checked in, the winds had picked up notably. About five boats sailed in before starting the first race. The first attempt ended with a general recall as the incoming tide swept many over the starting line early. Second start was off under the U Flag. A challenging race with capsizes up and downwind. On the second time around, at the leeward gate to the Hollywood finish, I set up, started the gybe, a huge puff hit, the boat gybed too soon for my position in the boat, and I flipped. Got around to the daggerboard, pulled it into full down position, righted the boat but it went right over in the heavy wind. Then the pack behind me was coming in. One hadn't seen me, turned into my deck and crashed then flipped.   More and more boats tried to gybe to go to the finish but instead wiped out and piled in. I had my hands over my head. At least five boats were piled on mine.  A fellow competitor called it Sunfish Mountain. 

The gaff of my boat was stuck in the bay’s bottom. The limited rescue crews were helping boats all over the course.  My poor boat was third to last. Regatta leader David Hernandez sailed to me and helped me out of the water.  I was in the water easily 25 minutes. It took another 10 minutes before my boat was freed and set up to be towed in after my halyard was cut.  Then I got transferred from Hernandez’s Sunfish to a rescue boat.  

While that work was being accomplished, a woman fleet member sailed past us and yelled to hurry up so another race could get started (like someone was dawdling and delaying things). We went and rescued two more boats before I got a ride to shore to start to recover my boat. Miraculously my boat had no hull damage but both telltales were damaged, the halyard was cut and, after the second day, I realized the rudder spring pin was sheared off and the spring was gone on one side. 

The rescue boat near the weather mark was helping four boats at the same time the Sunfish Mountain was being cleared. There easily had been more than 20 capsizes in that race. A number of gaffs were bent, a large number of boats sailed with a mud swipe on their sail at the top. That “Sunfish NASCAR” race was won by David Hernandez. 

Just as I reached shore the second race was started under the U Flag in slightly less wind, but it rebuilt. More challenges, more capsizes, more mud, more bent gaffs and more boats sailing in. Unfortunately, David Hernandez’s charter boat had a breakdown while he was leading. This race win went to 2024 World Champion Conner Blouin. At this point 44% of the fleet was not racing. 

The start of the third race saw similar conditions, still under the U Flag. This race saw capsizes even in the top 10 in the fleet. The last leg and into the Hollywood Finish came the highest gusts of the day. David Hernandez claimed his second win for the day, but only 27 of the 73 boats completed this race. The rescue boats remained overwhelmed, there were more bent gaffs, bent booms and rudder damage. Once safely ashore the racers enjoyed a wonderful dinner and complimentary beer. 

Just like Lake Michigan where I learned to sail and sail frequently, weather forecasts are meaningless!  First race of the day was started under the U Flag in light air from an unforecasted direction and chop. Five boats were caught on the course side at the start and earned a UFD penalty. Eight-time World Champion Eduardo Cordero got to the front to claim the win. We went ashore after the first race when the wind died. The P.R.O. stayed aggressive and flew the AP on the vessel anchored close to shore to make the waiting period to begin another starting series potentially shorter. 

After about an hour, the sea breeze filled in from the east-southeast. Second race of the day, with a U Flag start, resulted in a General Recall. Out came the Black Flag. Even with that, the lighter air with the tidal current had so many boats on the course side that the AP was posted about 8 seconds before the upcoming starting signal making all those who had been over lucky to be able to participate in the next starting series.  The third attempt, under Black Flag, was successful. The wind was up and down in this race, ESE-SSE 3-9, shifty, with lighter chop. Conner Blouin did it again, taking the win. 

Then to start the third race of the day, the wind built to S 12-18, with waves building in off the Gulf, and was challenging.  Another U Flag start. The Fleet was evenly matched.   It was tightly compressed from start to finish. Very cool!  High 71, sunny. Notably, with a perfect start, Eduardo Cordero was launched and claimed the race with a horizon job!  Coming in off the water about 5:00, the tired sailors enjoyed a lasagna and salad dinner with more refreshing beverages.  There was a green theme to the beverages for St. Patrick’s Day. 

On Monday the race organizers had checked with the fleet to see if changing the last race start time from 1430 to 1630 for the last day would cause anyone hardship, as races were running 47-55 minutes and getting reset added time for each race. There were no conflicts so the change was made, anticipating delays from weather on Tuesday morning. 

The third day of Midwinters dawned sunny, temperatures still in the low 60’s with no wind. A shore postponement came to open the day until the sea breeze filled in. All races were started under the U Flag. First race of the day was the lightest race of the regatta, ESE 5-7. It was claimed by Jacksonville’s Hal Gilreath. The second race of the day saw 6-9 winds and Youth sailor Parker Nagle from St. Croix, USVI won!  He showed the fleet how to do it. The third race of the day started with wind SE 10-13 and building chop. At this point Conner Blouin had the lead by two points. However, Eduardo Cordero turned it on and won the race taking the lead by two points.  The last race, sailed in wind SE 12-18 and chop, was claimed by Cordero, with Blouin second.  Congratulations to Eduardo Cordero, this year's champion. Both sailors were complimentary to each other for the tight, fair racing.  

The top three women were Mary Ellen Ingham, Emily Wagner and Nancy Jaywork. The top Youth was Parker Nagle. The top Master was Eugene Schmitt. 

Kudos to Clinton Edwards who helped in his rescue boat instead of racing in the regatta and Jim Koehler and his Dinghy Shop for bringing dang near half his inventory from Long Island. While Jim was also competing in this event, he took time to provide equipment to keep all the sailors repaired and back on the race course. 

What a challenging and fun regatta.—Gail Turluck

My boat is named Cheap Thrill because it is quite impossible to have this much fun in a boat for less money!

Thank you to everyone who congratulated me on this win. I can hardly believe it myself. I never won a Regional or any other major Sunfish event. I was a total sleeper on the scratch sheet. Nobody expected me to be in serious contention to win this, me included. Oh, I place well sometimes, but not consistently. Until now, somehow. 

I first sailed a Sunfish 65 years ago. It was my brother Eric's plywood boat. I was 6; he was 10. He let me steer and I liked it. He said he was going up on the foredeck to look around and “don't pull the sail in” because the boom would sweep him overboard. It was summer and we were kids. I couldn't resist. Sploosh! Overboard he went, both of us laughing and having fun on a wooden Sunfish.

My first racing was at UF in a Sunfish. The 'modern' FG boat had the old bronze rudder system which was terrible. If you got big wind, the rudder popped out and kicked up sending you out of control into an unexpected tack. I raced Sunfish in the 1970's, 80's and 90's before getting the Cal 34 I called Shady Lady which I raced coastal and offshore, winning the 225-mile Clearwater to Key West race once. I told myself I would race Sunfish when I wasn't messing with Shady Lady, but that boat consumed me. Finally, I sold her after two decades and got back into a Sunfish two years ago. 

Always a big draw to race a Sunfish …. the Sunfish family is about long-standing friendships, and I was reunited with old friends who asked where I had been. I told them I had a bad PHRF habit which took me two decades to quit! 

The wind for this Masters event was all over the place. We couldn't get a race in the first day because the north wind blew all the water out of the shallow bay, and it was still blowing above 25mph. There was a valid concern for the RC being able to rescue capsized boats which would surely get rigs stuck in the unforgiving mud coming up with the 'stain of shame’ - a blackened top third of the sail if not a bent spar. 

The next day began very light, a little over 5 mph coming in from the SE. That lasted one race before the SW sea breeze rolled in at 10-12 for the rest of the day. 

I made a mistake between the Nationals and the International Masters. I missed the VHF channel. I incorrectly assumed it would be the same channel. This caused me to miss the first Warning signal. My watch was late, so when I tried to get the jump, I popped out too early and heard the RC call me UFD. I momentarily considered sailing off to the side to let the fleet go, but then thought no, just sail the race for practice.

Already knowing I was UFD took the pressure off, so I simply focused on enjoying doing as well as I could without the least bit concern for my progress. I just wanted to get in touch with the wind. Missing the start time turned out to work very well because I was simply having fun focusing on just sailing well. I sailed so well I built a huge lead and won that race! It hurt to know it didn't count but I proved to myself that I could do it if I just had fun working the boat around the course and didn't care about trying to cover others. I vowed to repeat that mental approach in the races to come. Although I would not advise purposely getting a UFD in the 1st race of any series ... just sail like you had, like it doesn't matter. 

What I noticed about sailing at Bay Waveland YC beside the fact that it is an awesome Club with a fabulous group of people including past International Masters Champions Todd Edwards and Eugene Schmitt, was the tide and the South wind entering the bay and then fanning out. Going deep either side upwind did not pay because the shifty wind coming through the bridge made it impossible to call a layline from either corner while you're also fighting the current. I worked the right middle, but sometimes boats came out of the left middle doing better. It just seemed like the right middle worked more often. I camped at the nearby Hollywood Casino Campground, but the only bet I placed was on the right middle in this regatta. It paid.

A pack of racing boats is sort of like a flock of birds. They move forward in unison and tack in sync when the wind shifts. It's often helpful to be a part of such a group and stick with the group if unsure. But the shifts often came so fast in this regatta that it was unclear whether to tack on a header or stay because the wind might change back. 

Group think may have had a detrimental hand in packs of boats staying in headers. After I built confidence in my own ability to stay in sync with the shifts in the 1st race I had no qualms about tacking away from a group. I regularly picked up boats on the 2nd time upwind if I wasn't leading.

The single race I won was by a big margin. I was finishing as Mark Kastel approached the gate in 2nd. There were lots of big shifts that didn't last long. You could tack on one, go 6-8 boat lengths, then tack back for a gain. These short shifts were very useful to get clear air. There were larger areas of pressure than the shifts.

Occasionally in a lull, I would stand up and scan ahead for pressure. If I saw pressure, I would try to work towards it, sometimes on the headed tack for a little while. The short chop produced by the 6' deep water made it important to lean forward and back in sync to trim the boat in waves trying to keep the bow in contact with the water to avoid pounding and maintain boat speed. I had the gooseneck at 13 the whole time. I could generally hold the boat down and stay pretty flat. When smoother water and a puff allowed, I could point very high with the sail pulled in hard until boat speed began to fade, then ease and fall off to stay fast. I repeated this as long as speed and pressure allowed. This resulted in routinely pointing higher and sailing faster than nearby boats which did not do this. 

I started near the Signal Boat every time. The incoming tide regularly swept the idling starters away from the Signal Boat at about 30 to 10 seconds. Time after time I circled and waited in a barging position and watched as a nice gap opened up that allowed me to heat up and roast in there for a stellar start during the final 10 seconds. Even if that didn't happen, I was happy to let people go and take 2nd or 3rd row. 

I made sure I could tack to port as soon as I cleared the Signal Boat anchor rode which was short due to the 6' depth. I didn't worry if I had to sail the headed tack for a while just to get some room to begin working the shifts. I sometimes found myself in a mid-fleet position after mediocre starts but as long as I could get clear air, I was able to work my way up. 

If I had a good start, I had the option of staying on starboard if it was the lifted tack. Good numbers on starboard were near 145. On port I could sometimes point 205. Who wouldn't want to tack through 60 degrees? I watched the compass numbers like a hawk. I didn't care to cover others. Groups often missed shifts. I sailed my own race. I preferred to be on the lifted tack. I didn't worry about taking a wind reading after the 5 min Warning because it was so shifty it would probably be different 5 min later. I often sailed to the midline buoy pretending to take a wind reading, but just to draw boats toward the center of the line. Then I would go set up for my barging start position.

I did a lot of jibing downwind trying to stay in pressure and on the headed tack. Several times, on a final downwind, I leaned back and untied the sheet from the bridle, putting an end knot in it and letting it go to the aft boom block. Single line sheeting directly from the forward boom block works in light air only but enables superior faster jibing. I am now considering getting one of those old mainsheet bridle shackles and experimenting with unclipping the sheet for the final downwind leg. 

I like to have cleats on deck because I sometimes use a very skinny mainsheet in light air and it's always helpful to be able to take the pressure off the hand for a moment. This allows flaking tangles out of the sheet or sponge bailing if needed. A cleat can also be very useful for jibing. Cleat it momentarily, then reach up to grab the boom and throw it over. I have a long mainsheet so I can sail by the lee. There comes a time when you don't want to jibe but you want to go in that direction for a bit to clear your air, catch pressure or a wave.

A pair of telltales near the leech at the second panel become your leading-edge telltales while sailing by the lee. I generally take the sheet in hand directly from the boom while sailing downwind unless I'm using the direct sheeting setup and need the ratchet to hold it. 

Using a 3mm halyard allows putting two loops around the gooseneck for the vang which seems to last longer before needing to be snugged. Be careful not to snug it too much as it can result in a bent boom. I also send the halyard down from the top in one long wrap around the back of the mast to reduce windage, and my mast cleat is hose-clamped on very low, just above the gooseneck with the clamps taped over. The Lee Montes video of a mast broken right at the cleat screws was all I needed to see to decide to use this method. I also like to use the Hank Saurage “Hankster 2” knot as shown in another of Lee's videos. It really works. Once this knot is mastered you no longer need tape on the upper spar. This makes it easy to reef the sail if needed in big breeze as both the halyard position and the loops need to slide on the spar where the tape might be.

I was ready to reef the first day but we never left the beach. I sailed the next two days with no second Jens halyard even rigged. I didn't want the windage of an extra halyard. 

Then all the races were over I knew I had done well. But I never worried about this boat or that boat or any totals, so I didn't know I had won the regatta. I sailed in thinking it might be a possibility, but I wouldn't let myself believe it, figuring someone else did better which was what I was quite used to. I didn't find out until I was derigging my boat and all these people began to congratulate me. I was taken aback. Me? I did this? After all these years as a Great Grand Master (70-79 age division)? Am I the oldest person to ever win the International Masters? I don't know. Has anyone older than 71 ever done this? Please tell me if you know.

I want to thank Sarasota Sailing Squadron Fleet 154 and the folks who run their supreme clinics. Sailing regularly with excellent sailors like Chris Carrol, Mike Ingham, Dominic Simonetti, Mary Ellen Ingham, Lisa Brown Ehrhart, Doug Brown, Bob Findlay, Andy Beeckman, Kellee Johnson and so many other very competitive sailors really dialed up my technique. I sailed with them at these clinics last year, despite a dreaded long drive, to train for the Rush Creek Worlds which I felt good about getting an overall 55th place. My best race at these Worlds was a 7th in the final race. I was surprised when Sailing World used my picture in the article about the Worlds. I joked with Conner Blouin that he won but I got famous. 

I'm still getting used to the idea of being a Champion myself. I intend to use this energy to teach Sunfish racing and build up the City of Gulfport's Boca Ciega YC Fleet 756 in the beaches area of Tampa Bay. 

The most important thing in this win seemed to be mental. Have no general concern for how the rest of the fleet is doing. Have fun. Focus on sailing your own race. I leave you with our new Fleet 756 motto: Sail Hard, Sail Friendly, the BCYC way.

There is a small but enthusiastic racing fleet at Gifford Pinchot State Park a few miles north of York in Lewisberry, PA, which is not too far. We race on four alternate Saturdays in the early Spring and again after Labor Day. It's inland lake sailing at its most challenging and frustrating. But hey, it is racing albeit very low key.

It would be great to have you join the fun for some or all the of the race days.
