FROM THE HELM
A s I write this piece in early
December the advanced
planning for the 2010 In-
ternational Nonsuch Association
Rendezvous in Kingston, Ontario on July 11-17 has just
been completed. In this issue of Update you will find in-
formation to help you plan your attendance whether you
arrive on your boat or by plane, train or car. This in-
cludes Notice of Race, Registration Form, Regatta Entry
Form and Schedule of Events, as well as hotel reserva-
tion and tourism information. All of this information will
also be displayed on the Nonsuch web site at www.
Nonsuch.org. Efforts are being made to ensure that eve-
ryone will have the opportunity to participate in either
the cruising or racing programs.
This will be the fourth Rendezvous held in Kingston, the
most of any location. There are several reasons for its
popularity. The waters off Kingston have ideal sailing
conditions and were the site of the sailing events for the
1976 Montreal Olympic Games. The adjacent Thousand
Islands area is considered one of the world’s finest fresh
water cruising areas. The Kingston area is steeped in his-
tory. The Rideau Canal between Kingston and Ottawa,
including Fort Henry and other fortifications, has been
designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Ren-
dezvous program has been designed to take advantage of
all of these attributes.
Even more important, Kingston is central to a high per-
centage of Nonsuch boats in northeastern North Amer-
ica. With the advanced planning complete, it is now up
Winter 2010
to Nonsuch owners to make the decision to join what
promises to be a memorable week among fellow Non-
suchers. I am already aware that George and Kate
Prior (NS 33 IRISH MIST) are planning to lead a flo-
tilla from Rhode Island. Other Nonsuch owners from
Long Island Sound, Chesapeake Bay and locations en
route to Kingston via the Hudson River-Erie Canal
system should consider joining this group. I encourage
the formation of other flotillas from the all of the Great
Lakes as well as points east on the St. Lawrence River
to Halifax. As I have travelled most of these routes be-
fore, I would be pleased to offer assistance in voyage
planning.
The biennial Rendezvous, which is held alternately be-
tween venues in the USA and Canada, is only one of
the many advantages available to members of the In-
ternational Nonsuch Association. The INA also main-
tains one design control for fair and competitive racing
within the class; provides knowledge, parts and ser-

RENDEZVOUS
FAIR WINDS & GOOD FRIENDS
By Winnie Henderson, SEPTEMBER DREAM, NS 26C #144

T
hat is what NONSUCHERS can look forward to in
the 2010 Rendezvous in Kingston!
If you enjoyed the 1989, 1993 and 2002 INA Ren-
dezvous held in Kingston, or if you missed them regretfully, Downtown Kingston
please plan to be there for this coming one. SAVE the dates
July 11 - 17, SEND in your registration form early to reserve
your slip, and SAIL to beautiful, historic Kingston in the sum-
mer of 2010.

The city of Kingston is known as the fresh-water sailing capital

of North America. Located in the eastern portion of Southern
Ontario, Kingston is an easy sail or drive from Montreal, Ot-
tawa, Toronto and northern New York State. This is where
Lake Ontario runs into the St. Lawrence River, and the famous
Thousand Islands begin. The Thousand Islands Region is an in-
ternational tourism destination; it has more than 1,000 islands,
large and small, dotted along the St. Lawrence River and the
eastern shores of Lake Ontario. It offers a breathtaking scenic A view of some of the Thousands Islands
sailing ground for cruisers, and navigation challenges for rac-
ers. The itinerary of the 2010 INA Rendezvous promises to in-
corporate a sampling of the natural beauty of this region, while
giving members an enjoyable week-long experience to remem-
ber.

Flora MacDonald Confederation Basin Marina

This marina, where we will be moored for the first four and last
nights, is in the heart of downtown Kingston. It is within walk-
ing distance to many of Kingston’s attractions: the majestic
City Hall, displaying 19th century limestone architecture;
breath-taking waterfront parkland; Princess Street, where the
beauty of yesterday blends with the sophistication of today; fine Confederation Basin Marina

Gananoque
A full day sail trip is planned for all rendezvous atten-
dees, cruisers and racers, from Kingston to Gananoque.

Nestled along the north shore of the St. Lawrence River,

Gananoque is the entry point to the picturesque Thousand
Islands. After a downstream sail on the big river, we will
dock overnight at the Gananoque Municipal Marina,
and then dine at the Gananoque Inn and Spa, a member of
Ontario’s Finest Inns.

 NONSUCH UPDATE
ANOMALY:
The Designer’s Point of View
By Mark Ellis
.
Editor’s note: In the 1970’s Mark Ellis was approached by vi-
sionary Canadian yachtsman Gordon Fisher with his concept of a
simple catboat that would have a freestanding rig coupled with a
modern fin-keel and spade-rudder. The first of over 950 Non-
suches was launched in 1978. About eight years ago, Jon Fitch,
who owned Nonsuches for many years, approached Mark with his
own vision. The result is another remarkable boat with a free-
standing rig that expands upon the legacy of the Nonsuch. The
following is Mark’s perspective on this recent collaboration.
L
ate in September 2009, my wife Barbara and
I had a very pleasant dinner With Jon Fitch
and his wife, Ann Nunziata, in Port Credit,
Ontario. Jon and Ann had just completed a
1500-mile, 30-day, whirlwind Great Lakes cruise
aboard their new 45-foot cat ketch ANOMALY. The
cruise took them through the Welland Canal to Lake
Erie, then up Lake Huron to the North Channel and
then all the way back downstream to Lake Ontario. Be-
ing the proud designer of ANOMALY, I am pleased to
report that Jon and Ann had a trouble free (except for a
few electronic glitches), fast-passaging, cruise that ful-
filled their and my aspirations for the boat.
Jon wrote a great piece about the creation of ANOM-
ALY that appeared in the last issue (Fall ’09) of Non-
such Update. I do not have much to add to his descrip-
tion, as he undoubtedly knows the boat better than I or
my friend, Mark Bruckmann, the builder. What I do

want to add to the story is about Jon, an unusually
knowledgeable and involved client. That our relation-
ship was never strained over the length of the project
says much for Jon’s character. Left to my own devices,
ANOMALY would have likely been a simpler boat, less
complex in many details. Having said that, what Jon
provided in detail design and engineering, and, in many
cases, parts made with his own hands, works very well.
Jon’s innovative ideas, tempered by his pragmatic de-
sign abilities and intuitive aesthetic sense, kept percolat-
ing throughout the entire design and building process.
Jon presented the concept in nearly complete form for
several notable features in the boat and both he and I
knew that it would be better if he provided the detail
drawings. To wit, the dinghy “garage” has a sliding
hatch cover and transom platform “door” that are per-
fectly fitted to the deck and hull and work superbly. The
“pop up” hard top dodger, that when lowered, is an ab-
solutely inconspicuous part of the trunk cabin and is aes-
thetically pleasing and practical when raised. The down-
ward pushing double vang arrangement on the main
boom works flawlessly and is the best answer for verti-
cal boom control on the rotating-mast configuration.
Jon’s design for housing the extendable spinnaker sprit
in a tube made into the anchor bowsprit is very slick and
pleasing to the eye. The au courant “square head” of the
mainsail, held erect by a gaff-like batten, made the hal-
yard shackle unreachable when the sail was lowered un-
til Jon devised solution that he is patenting. In addition
to all the creative thought that Jon brought to bear, he
also put in expert work as a machinist turning out truly
beautiful parts from solid metal.
ANOMALY was expertly and handsomely finished at
the Bruckmann Yachts shop not far from my office and I
enjoyed meeting with Jon several times every year (!) of
the boat’s long gestation (building) period. Ann joined
Jon’s visits several times and Barbara and I have had
such fun being friends of ANOMALY’s master and
mistress! ANOMALY truly represents the best in cus-
tom yachts and the result of an extraordinary client/
designer/builder relationship that has given me much
satisfaction. She bears a strong resemblance to my work
in NONSUCH and that adds greatly to my pleasure.

Regional Associations
Regional Associations are organized and operated by Nonsuch owners independent of the International Nonsuch
Association (INA). Although INA encourages their formation, it does not control their activities, membership or
fees. The INA will, on request, provide assistance and advice to interested parties to facilitate their organization.
INA recognizes that regional associations contribute to the ongoing strength of the overall Nonsuch organization. If
you are located in an area which is served by an existing association we encourage you to participate in its activi-
ties. If the association in your area is currently not as active as you would like, take the initiative by offering the
leader of the group your assistance in organizing an activity for the benefit of all members. If there is no associa-
tion in the area where you reside, take a leadership role in organizing a new regional association. I would be
pleased to provide information and advice regarding organization and operation of regional associations. Please

A Summer of Nonsuches gram.

By Chris & Monica Brittain MONICAT II Our preferred base in the Bras d'Or is the village of St.
Peters at the southern extreme of the big lake. Here the

T he summer of 2009 started off slow in eastern Canada

but by mid-July the weather was great and Nonsuches
started to gather in greater than usual numbers in Nova
Scotia's famous Bras d'Or Lakes.
For those not familiar with the area, the Lakes are actually
salt water, with entrances from the ocean at the south and
north ends. The salt water is where the similarity with the
ocean ends. Here, in this 800-square miles of cruising
paradise, there are negligible tides (less than a foot), pro-
tective hills that keep out fog, and hundreds of tiny coves
and anchorages where you may well be the only boat.
Each year many American, Canadian, and foreign yachts
make their way to the Bras d' Or to take a break from the
ocean or as a way station to prepare for the rigors of
southern Newfoundland, the Magdalen Islands, or Labra-
dor. Or perhaps they are licking wounds from the annual
Halifax to St. Pierre race, or the Marblehead to Halifax.
We have been going to the Bras d' Or since the early
1980's, but this is the year we will remember for the num-
bers of Nonsuchers we encountered. Most were from Hali-
fax or the south shore of Nova Scotia, but there were oth-
ers who had travelled from farther a field.
marina is operated by the local Lions Club, and manager
Gerry Gibson is very familiar with welcoming Non-
suches. At any given time this summer there were at
least a couple on a mooring or at the docks preparing to
move up-lake.
Dundee, in West Bay, has a full-service marina just a
half-day sail away, and Baddeck Marine in Baddeck has
a well-stocked marine store.
For us, the Bras D' Or is two full days of sailing (about
120 nautical miles) from our home port of Charlotte-
town, Prince Edward Island. We make one overnight
stop, at Ballantynes Cove, a snug marina shared with
fishing boats and spiced up with a tuna museum and a
seafood snack bar. Nonsuches coming from the Halifax
area are also facing a couple of days sailing, although
many push through on a 24-hour non-stop basis.
What was our greatest realization about the Bras d' Or
this year? That it would be a tremendous place for a full-
blown Nonsuch Rendezvous!
Website for St. Peters Lions Club Marina:
www.stpetersmarina.ca

Our most amazing sighting was as we ghosted into Mas-

kell Harbour at midnight one night and were greeted by a
raft of five: two 30's, two 33's, and a 36; their masts rising
in steps towards the glowing stars.
Charlottetown
We cruised for three days in company with MISTY CAT,
a 26 owned by Greg Silver, who has the good fortunate of
living year round on the shores of the Bras d'Or. Together
we explored the underwater wreck of the "Yankee" near
Baddeck, and checked in for a night at the slips offered by
the Cape Breton Shipyard.

Baddeck is the wannabe Newport of the Bras d'Or, sport-

Halifax
ing a very active yacht club and a spirited Regatta Week
that brings racers from far and wide. The adjacent town
wharf recently added additional dockage, but the best deal
seemed to be the half-dozen guest moorings right in front
of the Baddeck YC. These are identified by green balls

ing food, decorations, and fellowship.

A huge thank you goes out to Sandusky Sailing Club (SSC) for allowing
the Nonsuch's to gather at the club. We had eight boats represented, which
is a record for us! Seven boats were present in the harbor, 2 from Canada,
1 each from Michigan, Rocky River, and Catawba and 2 from the sailing
club; another crew arrived by car from Toledo. This was made possible by
the hospitality of SSC and has become an annual event here for the past 3
years. Next year we will meet the weekend after labor day. In past years
we have been at Pelee Island and Leamington in Ontario starting back in With water pistols drawn the battle begins.

NONSUCH UPDATE
Chesapeake Bay
By Ed Cook, CHAT-EAU
Groundhog Day, your correspondent can’t get the idea
of Groundhog Day out of his head. It’s not because it
happens to be his birthday. Nor is it because of the
world’s attention as it awaits the decision of Punxatau-
ney Phil on the timing of the arrival of spring. Instead,
the idea persists because of the movie “Groundhog
Day,” in which the holiday repeats every day, over and
over again.
Thus, the Fall 2009 CBNA Rendezvous, held Septem-
ber 18th through 20th, suggested the theme of Ground-
hog Day because so many things about it were a repeat
of the same Rendezvous two years before. Some were
intentionally and expertly planned to be the same. After
all, no need to reinvent the wheel. But some were unex-
pectedly, in some cases even eerily, the same.
On Friday the fleet assembled throughout the afternoon
“behind” Gibson Island inside the Magothy River.
That’s just a few miles north of the Bay Bridge and An-
napolis, and is the same well-protected and peaceful an-
chorage we used in the fall of 2007. On CHAT-EAU
with me were Cindia Gottshall (same), our two Jack
Russell terriers (same) as we voyaged pleasantly,
warmly (same), although a little too calmly (same)
southward into a southerly puff (same) from the Middle
River, where we had departed a little later than we had
hoped for (that never changes).
Once well into the Magothy we curled eastward
through the Magothy Narrows, then swung around Hol-
land Point. As the anchorage came into view we could
see Mike Ostrow in ARENDAR (same), Ed and Maria
Charest in FUNSUCH (same), Founding Commodore
Dick and Delcy Barton in PHAT, Vice Commodore Al
and Robin Burke in RAZZMATAZZ, the Zinners -
John and Elizabeth - in POLARIS (same), and in his
CBNA debut, Ryan Gniazdowski aboard ZU ZU’S
PETALS. Instead of rafting up, everyone anchored out
independently (same). ARENDAR was the flagship of
the fleet that evening as Mike Ostrow not only hosted
the Commodore, but the rest of us as well (same), in the
huge cockpit of his beautifully maintained 36. Many
appetizers got passed around (same), and libations, too

Winter 2010
(same), as everybody enjoyed “catching up” (same) be-
fore sailors returned to their own boats by dinghies no
longer as stable as when they arrived (same). There had
been some mention that the wind was forecasted to
back to the north during the night and increase a good
deal (same). Yet for now, sublime was the harmony that
all our assembled catboats brought to that harbor
(same).
Late that night, just as forecasted, the harmony rudely
and suddenly ended (same). Though it’s not an exact
Groundhog Day repeat of 2007, our host had to undergo
one of those shocking middle-of-the-night wakeups out
of a deep sleep to deal with a dragging anchor (that
honor went to someone else in 2007). After vaulting
awake and hitting his head hard, Mike spent a good deal
of time motoring around to different locations trying to
get a good set on ARENDAR’S anchor, which he fi-
nally did.
CHAT-EAU left the anchorage early the next morning
to go to the well-known, uninhabited Dobbins Island in
order to give the dogs some exercise before the sched-
uled fleet crossing of the Bay (same). Then at about
0945, a la Groundhog Day, in a wind building from the
north, the 26s led the fleet out of the Magothy, and
blindly plunged like fate into the dark Chesapeake
(Apologies to Melville). In an uncanny similarity to
2007, the wind was coming straight down the Bay pro-
viding maximum fetch for building waves. Commodore
Dick Barton unreefed (always the same) led the way.

(CBNA Continued from page 14)
Soon the fleet, some reefed and some not, settled
out naturally in position by length of waterline, al-
though PHAT, a 26, never got caught (some things
never change).
Again, like two years before, the Bay was beauti-
ful, with clear blue skies above, and dark, breaking
white capped waves below. Most Chesapeake
boats stayed sheltered from the strong winds in
their harbors (same), except for a few hardy ones
and our long line of Nonsuches bounding the 10
miles or so across the Bay to Rock Hall.
After our arrival in Swan Creek, everyone spent
the afternoon settling into Haven Harbour Marina
(same), visiting and resting (same). Joe and Made-
leine Tierney who sailed from Annapolis in AL-
LEGRO and Roland Wood who brought WENDY
HAWK II from the West River joined us. Ed
Strazzini, MANATEE, and his guest and new

members Alan and Nan Suydam of REJOICE drove in
for the evening. It’s easy to see why rendezvous organizer
Al Burke chooses this marina, because it easily handled the
arrival of our boats with great efficiency, and offers so many
amenities. Great job Al (always the same)!
We assembled Saturday evening for an important business
meeting that resulted in the election of new officers of the
CBNA (definitely not the same). There has been only one
Commodore of the CBNA since its founding, Dick Barton.
Though it’s not known precisely when Dick first assumed
his duties, geological evidence makes certain it was some
time since the H.M.S. Nonsuch first headed for Hudson Bay.
Succeeding Dick is new Commodore Ed Cook. Similarly,
another of our pantheon of Founding Fathers, Vice Commo-
dore Al Burke, our “XO” who keeps us all moving ahead,
was succeeded by incoming VC Rob Crooks. Al continues
on in a new capacity as Treasurer. Finally, the chroniclers of
our group, Newsletter Editors Ed and Maria Charest, who so
ably kept us informed about each other by producing such a
great newsletter for a long, long time, will be succeeded by
incoming editor Joe Thompson.
After our ride on the Rock Hall trolley (same) to the Water-
man’s Crab House for dinner the members awarded in-
scribed trophies to our retiring leaders for the superb service
they have given all of us. Thanks for everything you’ve done
for us over the years! We will strive to live up to your exam-
ple.
Sunday morning the final day of our Rendezvous, dawned
peacefully (same). Everyone had a chance to leisurely visit
dockside while gazing at boats, sharing Nonsuch-related sto-
ries and saying their good-byes (same). This writer espe-
cially remembers getting the chance to talk to Ryan G. about
his salvaging of his boat ZU ZU’S PETALS from sitting on
the bottom in Florida several years ago and restoring it to the
fine sailing condition she’s in now.
As we all headed southward out of Swan Creek and into the
Bay the Groundhog Day effect showed up one last time in a
very serious way. In 2007 while motoring north to Swan
Creek after crossing from the Magothy, ARENDAR lost
power and was stranded for a while in the channel until
Mike could resolve what turned out to be a fuel problem.
This year, while motoring south, and at almost the precise
spot where he had lost power two years before, Mike’s boat
started shipping water at an alarming rate. PHAT and FUN-
SUCH, circled nearby as calls went out for assistance. Tow-
boat U.S. and the Coast Guard ultimately responded. Calm

under fire, Mike got the flooding under control and was
towed safely back to Haven Harbour Marina. Later Phat
delivered Mike back to his home off the South River. Sev-
eral days after the rendezvous Mike reported that mechanics
found that the shaft had slipped and had wrenched the shaft
seal apart, causing the flooding. Everything was repaired,
and ARENDAR soon made it back home to Annapolis.
As we look back we are grateful to Dick, Al, Ed and Maria
for really making this an active organization of good
friends, and to help insure we see Mike again next year
we’d like to stress that there is no such thing as the
Groundhog Day effect.
Nova Scotia
By George Archibald, MAGICAL
W e are having our annual dinner at The Royal
Nova Scotia Yacht Squadron on Feb 20. That is
Boat Show Saturday so we will have Nonsuch
sailors in Halifax for the show; it makes a great weekend
event.
We will talk endlessly about our boats, sailing and latest
equipment acquisitions. Next summer’s Rendezvous loca-
tion will be picked. The Dartmouth Yacht Club, Chester
Yacht Club and St Margaret’s Bay Yacht Club have mem-
bers who have all shown interest in hosting the event.
There is lots of interest in Nonsuch boats in Nova Scotia
and we welcome visitors from away!

By Bill Wheeler
W e’ve been operating on an informal basis for two
years now. We don’t have an executive or col-
lect dues but that is not to say we are entirely
inactive. There are 5 to 7 boats that enjoy cruising together
on weekends and on longer cruises from Midland up to the
North Channel .
We also socialize during the off season and 16 of us just
had a most enjoyable lunch at a country inn near Orange-
ville this past Sunday, Dec 6th.
We are small but have fun, any local Nonsuches are wel-
come to join in.
