Times may be difficult but what a credit to the CPYC membership to be<br />

able to raise this kind of money for the Make-A-Wish Foundation to help<br />

them continue to grant wishes to critically ill children. It is also a credit to<br />

hard work over the<br />

months proceeding<br />

the event realized<br />

this successful outcome.<br />

REMEMBER THIS?<br />

October 4, 1960 5:04PM Eastern Electra Crashes at Logan<br />

Cause: Bird Strike<br />

Tail section of the Electra being raised.<br />

October 4, <strong>2010</strong> is the 50th anniversary of the crash of the Eastern Airlines Electra<br />

#375 at Logan Airport. The plane plunged into the waters between buoy 2 and 4<br />

near CPYC killing 62 passengers and crew. However were it not for the efforts of<br />

the members of CPYC and citizens of Winthrop, many<br />

more would have succumbed.<br />

To commemorate the crash, Michael Kalafatas has written<br />

Bird Strike: the Crash of the Boston Electra. CPYC is<br />

proud that the author chose CPYC to launch his book on<br />

Sunday, <strong>September</strong> 19th at 4PM.<br />

Interested members are invited to attend. Kalafatas will<br />

make a presentation and be available to sign books.<br />

Bird Strike, a non-fiction book, is well written, extensively<br />

researched, and insightful. It holds one’s attention<br />

as it is not written in the usual didactic, sterile nonfiction<br />

style. It shows humor and soul while it looks at the conflict<br />

between Man and Bird.<br />

It caught the fabric of the <strong>Cottage</strong> <strong>Park</strong> <strong>Yacht</strong> <strong>Club</strong>, Winthrop,<br />

its people and the community. Many of the names<br />

appearing in the book are familiar to club and town members, bringing back memories.<br />

As the book progressed away from the crash and the town’s involvement,<br />

Kalafatas extrapolated to present day and the future in a very instructive, and a bit<br />

frightening manner. How the Eastern crash, rescue, and investigation effected the<br />

lives of people involved is remarkable.<br />

This is a book that is important and would be of significance to any person, or town<br />

that is in close proximity to an airport, to the aircraft industry, to the flying public<br />

and to aviation authorities.<br />

Recently retired after 35 years with Brandeis University Admissions, Kalafastas is<br />

now with Admissions Advantage in Weston, MA. He has written How to Make the<br />

Most of Your College Visit: the Official Visitor’s Guide to the Region’s Top Colleges<br />

and Bellstone: Greek Sponge Divers of the Aegean, One American’s Journey<br />

at work<br />

Start of the Race<br />

Judy Gaffney and her helper ducklings deserve a lot of<br />

credit for a terrific Duck Regatta. The day dawned with spectacular<br />

weather. The course was set up on the westerly side<br />

of the marina in shifting north to southwest winds and an<br />

outgoing tide which confused a lot of the ducks as they did<br />

not know which way to go. Catching the ducks was a challenge<br />

as many swam under the head pier emerging on the<br />

easterly side. Winners were: 1st place Todd Hughes $500;<br />

2nd place Paul Duval $100; 3rd place Jack Gallagher and<br />

Lauren Kane $50; Lame Duck Mike Carney Lobsters by<br />

L. Bradley, and PHRF duck Matt Rudser Lobsters by the<br />

Leary's.<br />

Adult Sailing Program <strong>2010</strong><br />

Photos by Dave Pais<br />

Fourteen new and not so new members enjoyed<br />

this year's adult sailing program, held every<br />

Thursday night throughout the summer. The<br />

wind and weather cooperated and provided great<br />

conditions for our sailors. Students were able to<br />

gain experience in a number of boats, including<br />

Rhodes 19's, a Raven, a Whitehall skiff and a<br />

sunfish. We graduated to "big boats" on our last<br />

night, sailing into the sunset and arriving back to<br />

CPYC well into the night. Several students even<br />

got to solo sail by August.<br />

Special thanks to<br />

all who volunteered to instruct<br />

and/or generously<br />

and courageously lend their<br />

boats to the program: Tim<br />

Nine adults squeezed into N-10’s to race<br />

around Snake Island.<br />

After the start, where only one boat was over<br />

the line early, the fleet reached along the<br />

shores of Snake Island before heading upwind<br />

to the Dolphin. The breeze picked up markedly<br />

as the fleet emerged from the shadow of<br />

the island, and the adventures began.<br />

Veteran and experienced sailor Tom Montgomery<br />

Dolphin, flipping the boat over. Bill Holden<br />

Hurricane Gaston veered away from Mass Bay fortunately. While there were no mandatory orders issued to vacate the Marina, many<br />

occupants played it safe, or practiced going to their moorings. (See picture below on Friday <strong>September</strong> 3rd.) It is always good to<br />

locate your storm mooring, before you actually need it.

Chris Berg would like to thank<br />

everyone who participated in<br />

2 nd Place Michael Giacobbe 27 inches $100.00<br />

3 rd Place Janet Nalen 26 1/2 inches $60.00<br />

CPYC Wildlife<br />

This beautiful Egret cruising the waters<br />

on the westerly side of the club was<br />

taken before the Ducky Regatta by Tom<br />

McHugh.<br />

No one caught a picture but as the rubber<br />

ducks were released , a sea gull swooped<br />

in targeting the ducks for dinner. He<br />

changed his mind at the last minute and<br />

only a few feet above the ducks, thinking<br />

this would not be a good meal and soared<br />

away.<br />
