He joined the Friendship Sloop Society in 1961 and never left. He raced his sloop Vida Mia in our first regatta in 1961, and in every race thereafter through 1975. Not a cut-throat competitor, he liked to start with clear air to windward and no protest flag. Yet in 19 starts, he scored two second places and eight thirds. He was vice president of our Society from 1971 to 1972 and ores ident from 1973 to 1974. After he sold Vida Mia in 1976, he continued as an active member of the Society. His yard in the Back Channel at Kittery always had a mooring for the itinerant Friendship sloop, and he was quick to help in time of trouble. When Ollie M. lost her rudder when At Last was dismasted, when John Rutledge was lost overboard from Coast O’Maine, Ted Brown was ready to help. He was always welcome aboard our sloops as a reliable hand in a race and a delightful presence in the cockpit. He was voted the Hadlock Award in 1989 in recognition of his commitment to the Society. Captain Ted Brown wore his title proudly. He was a professional seaman. After gradu- ating from the Massachusetts Maritime Academy, he went to sea for six years in the mer- chant marine, leaving as Chief Mate, then worked as a rigger at the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard. During the War, he served as a navigator, an executive officer, and finally in command of PF-56 Covington. After the War, he held management positions in the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard and was relief captain of R.V. Jere Chase. On the shore of Back Channel, he built boats, finished out hulls, adjusted compasses and, winter or sum- mer, lobstered in his own boat. We are proud to have known Captain Ted Brown. , above: Captain Ted Brown left: Vida Mia

This yearbook presents our program for the 1996 sailing season, together with the thoughts and reflections of some of our members. Each summer Sloop Society members and friends gather in New London, Connecticut, Southwest Harbor and Rockland, Maine, and Marblehead, Massachusetts, to race our sloops and share stories about the trials and tribulations of sailing the New England coast. Our 36th year is not remarkable in its own right; it is not a landmark year or anniversary for any particular occasion in the Society’s history. It is remarkable, however, when you consider the longevity of a Society established to memorialize a single boat design. What’s actually more remarkable are the individuals and families that have dedicated time and energy to keep the Society functioning for so long. Perhaps the most important aspect of the 36th year is that it signifies an evolution from the involvement of dedicated individuals to the involvement of several generations of fam- ily members. In the case of our family, it was Bernard Langton’s fascination with the idea of owning a Friendship that was passed on to his son to realize. Our children, Ruthie and Robert, have sailed since they were six months old and are both proud to have been offi- cially recognized as youngest crew members during the annual homecoming races. Our family is typical of what is happening in the Society. The sons and daughters, and grand- children, of some of the original members that first gathered in Friendship, Maine, are now taking command of an extended family that includes 262 registered Sloops. Won’t you join our family for part of the summer’s activities? Perhaps you, too, will develop a fascination with Friendship sloops that can be passed on and nurtured by your family over the years to come. Commodores Richard and Beth Langton

Haley When I was ten, my father opened a marine center on Marblehead harbor, and I found that I had a dream. As a lad, I worked in the store and on the gas dock and had the use of our outboards. A couple of boats in the harbor caught my eye, and I soon learned that these were Friend- ship sloops. There was one belonging to Bill Haskell, who also had a half model of a Friendship over the door to his house on State Street. I would often stop to admire the grace- ful lines of that model and would always go out of my way to admire a Friendship sloop. A few years later my dream became etched in my mind. One July day we moored in Friendship. I was sitting in the cockpit of my friend’s Triton sloop when, over the top of an island, just above the trees, I saw a gaff topsail. Just behind it was another and another. The first one rounded the point with all sails set, followed by the rest of the fleet. It was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. ,™~ ,-,•„ ,„ ^ ., .. , T ° , , Tern – #24, c. 1900, Wilbur Morse – Owners: Until then, I had seen only one . T T . ‘ ‘ … . „ a . Paul C. Haley and Betty A. Stubbs PHOTO BY JOHN SHERWOOD sailing at a time. To see a fleet with all sails set is indescribable, even if you’re not an impressionable kid of fourteen. On that July day I vowed that one day I would own a Friendship sloop. My father sold the marine center, piled the family onto a 57 Elco, and off to Florida we went. We lived on the boat at Dinner Key Marine in Coconut Grove, where I encountered the largest Friendship sloop I had ever seen – Susan (#29), owned by sailmaker Brad Mac. At the age of 19 the sight of a Friendship still made an impression on me. As I went down the dock, I had to be careful not to hit the bowsprit of Susan as I went by. She was well- known on Biscayne Bay because, year after year, she won the Columbus Day regatta. In 1985, I joined Giffy Full as a marine surveyor. In that capacity I surveyed several Friendship sloops, and the dream was still there. Each time I crawled through the bilges and decks of a Friendship, I thought to myself, “I will own a Friendship some day.” In 1988,1 was called to Mystic, Connecticut, to survey a Friendship named Ancient Mariner. Holt Vibber, who was selling the boat, had rebuilt it over 22 years, working off and on. Again, my dream was rekindled. continued on page n

The vessel was sound, but the new owner wanted a more stylish interior, and there were some of the old (c.1900) planks that were weeping. When the yard was finished, the boat was absolutely beautiful. The interior was varnished oak, the exterior was professionally painted and sparkled like a diamond, and sported a new varnished bowsprit. She was also sporting a new name, Tern. This was her original name, and her owner decided to give it back to her. The next year, the boat was donated to the Philadelphia Maritime Museum, which had planned to put it into a program in Philadelphia. That didn’t work out, and Tern was slid into a back corner of the storage shed at Rumery’s. There she sat for the next five years. The storage location was excellent, how- ever, as the shed was at the foot of a hill and had a din floor, and the rain ran down the hill and under the boat, helping to keep her from opening up. July of 1995 found me again at Rumery’s to survey a boat. Back into the shed I went to look at Tern. I pulled the cover back and went inside. I was hooked. I came back from that trip and Friendship was all I could talk about. Finally, I believe out of desperation, Betty, my partner in life, said, “Why don’t you call the museum? If you ever heard that someone bought the boat for a price that you could afford, you would kick yourself.” I had Betty’s blessing. After a couple of calls to the museum, I came home to tell Betty, “They accept- ed my offer; we own a Friendship.” Tern had fared well during five years of storage. The engine started when I tested it, and then I set about to find all the parts and pieces that had been in storage all that time. Most of the parts were found. A block and fall that the boatyard was using was my main sheet – I captured it back, and Tern was launched. I waited a week to step the mast so the hull would take up, and, on the first weekend in August, set out for Marblehead with my uncle, Dr. Bill Haley, and Betty’s brother, Bob Quadros. That trip is another story for another arti- cle, but we made it, and, after 16 hours under power, entered Marblehead harbor. My dream had been realized. I came home with my own Friendship sloop.

The next photo is in the container just before she left for Boston, last February, to be shipped to La Spezia in Italy on- board the container ship, Amerigo Vespucci. From Boston, the con- tainer went to Leghorn and then on a feeder ship to Olbia in Sardinia. Marion and I left for Rome on March 6, where we stayed for five days, then flew to Olbia, where the boat was ready to launch. The last picture is at Olbia, just before laun- ching. After rigging and sailing her, we returned home on March 20. The boat is 21′ in length, 7′-7″ beam and 4′ draft. Power is a 20 HP YanMar diesel. The design of this boat is a larger version of the 19 footer (Bucephalus) and is based on the round-bow Friendship sloop model. 17

It hurt to tear out all of Chrissy’s, beautiful joinery that Ernie Wiegleb had spent much of his life building. Unfortunately, it was necessary in order to conduct repairs on the hull. I kept every piece of Chrissy’s interior, look- ing forward to the time when I could put it all back. This winter, with Chrissy’s hull sound and deck tight, I finally reached that point, but as I had shortened Chrissy’s cabin by about six feet, there were some pieces I just couldn’t fit back. One piece that I most regretted not using was Chrissy’s big, old, pull-out double bunk. I had only slept in this a few nights, and, although I had to keep one hand dangling to tell me when to pump, it was a wonderful bed. It had a beautiful mahogany side board which stuck up high enough on the ends to keep you in it, yet was cut down in the middle to allow easy access and a place to sit when you woke up. Bruce Morang spoke fondly and frequently of the bunk when talking about his many years aboard Chrissy. In one of his stories about her, he mentioned how he used to toss and turn in it, “for, oh, maybe five or six seconds before Chrissy rocked me to sleep.” It seemed to me that this would be a great quality to have in a child’s bed. Years ago, when my sister no longer fit in her crib, my father fashioned her a beautiful bed of some wood he salvaged from the dump. Much to the chagrin of my mother, who doesn’t like anything from the dump, this cute little bed was passed around the family and used for many years by our cousins. This winter, when my son Alden began to outgrow his crib, we knew just where to get him what he called a “big boy bed.” Alden was quite excited to get it, but the nice new mattress his grandmother bought was just a little high- er than the one that had been in it, so he needed a higher side board to keep him from falling out. I knew just where to get one. It took a little trimming to get Chrissy’s sideboard to look right, but, once this was done, even Alden’s skeptical mother admitted it was “perfect.” So, as I write, it brings me great pleasure to know that Alden is sleeping soundly under a quilt his mother made, on a bed his grandfather made, with a little piece of Chrissy keeping him safe and snug.

Cruising Rules By Roland S. Earth “Roland, are we on cruising rules yet?” With these words, Snyder comes aboard. Snyder and I have owned a succession of three Friendship sloops: Amos Swann, Moses Swann, and Sazerac. Once a year Snyder and I sail together —just the two of us. During our four days together, things are different. In planning the menu for our first night, each agreed to bring “some stuff.” We figured the law of averages would yield a balanced and perhaps nourishing diet. Snyder brought a five-pound brick of cheddar, a case of ale, and two packs of Oreos. I arrived with a large hunk of Swiss, some beer, and Oreos. Friendship is a particularly revered quality aboard a Friendship sloop, but mariners know that compatibility aboard a sailing vessel is a complex and fragile matter. No mat- ter how agreeable and adaptable one’s partner, there is the matter of “getting along.” As our annual adventures began to accumulate, we found ourselves running up against the abundant and inevitable warts of the other, and even the occasional warts in ourselves. Cruising Rules are the norms of personal behavior requisite for two individuals to stay on speaking, even friendly, terms while confined for an indefinite period afloat in small quarters. For a quarter-century, Snyder and I have refined our cruising rules, at first on Friendships, now on other vessels. We have complied with them faithfully, and I am proud to say in their behalf that we continue to cruise happily together on sea and land, fortified, of course, with the now traditional staples of cheese, beer, and Oreos. We have kept these rules pretty much to ourselves, but a growing realization of their usefulness, even profundity, causes me to place a few of them in the public domain in the hope they will offer others the same lasting serenity and compatibility on board ship — and perhaps in other leaky relationships — as they have us. CRUISING RULE #1 In order to purchase our first Friendship sloop, we put together a “syndicate” of five owners who collectively put up the $2,500 for a “handyman’s delight.” Amos Swann, at 26′, was a homely, leaky, and lovable old vessel with corroded fastenings, rotten gar- boards, and two good pumps. The theory was that to minimize not only capital expenses but our maintenance expens- es, we would assemble at the boatyard each spring to scrape, sand, and paint. When the appointed May weekend arrived — cold and raw and spitting snow – only two of us arrived with it. Snyder and I scraped and sanded. Sunday morning, with Amos all primed and ready to paint, we faced a crucial judgment: what color should the house roof be? The arguments were between a clean white, an off-white, battleship gray, or what Snyder, for some inexplicable reason, called “cat’s ass brindle.” The latter, a brownish, orangeish, somewhat pukeish buff, allegedly the authentic hue of the Friendship sloop, probably evolved as a camouflage for fish entrails, lobster bait and seaweed. We selected and applied, of course, the brindle. Having diligently dispatched our boatyard duties for the fitting-out season, we drove home with a feeling of considerable satisfaction, if not virtue. This warm aura persisted until, one-by-one, the other three owners weighed in with their outrage over the dubious aesthetic properties of cat’s ass brindle as proper topping for their boat. A cruising rule emerged in time to save the day, the partnership, and – the cat’s ass brindle: THE HAND THAT HOLDS THE PAINTBRUSH DETERMINES THE COLOR. CRUISING RULE #2 Our lives are a trail of un-had conversations. On shore we must speak in code, abbrevi- ation, and haste in the always unsuccessful attempt to get our licks in before the next per- 20 son intercedes or the time expires. One of the virtues of being at sea for an extended pas- sage with a companion is sufficient time for “the long version.” Of everything. On a cruise it is possible to experience the following in conversation: leisure, civility, grandeur and complete resolution. On the other hand, blessed with a captive audience and the undisputed floor – or deck – nothing insults and assaults more than to be unceremoniously interrupted while attempt- ing the long version. Hence the necessity for the second rule of cruising: WHEN A PARTY IS TALKING, HE (THE PRONOUN “HE” IS USED THROUGH- OUT DELIBERATELY AND ADVISEDLY) IS NOT TO BE INTERRUPTED UNTIL HE HAS COMPLETED ALL OF WHAT HE WANTS TO SAY. TO BE ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN THAT THE PARTY OF THE FIRST PART IS INDEED FINISHED, NOT JUST PAUSING FOR AIR OR GATHERING HIS MEMORY, A 30-SECOND WAIT TIME SHALL BE OBSERVED AT THE CONCLUSION OF THE WORDS OF THE FIRST PARTY BEFORE THE PARTY OF THE SECOND PART SHALL COMMENCE SPEAKING. CRUISING RULE #3 One bright spring day Sazerac was launched, newly painted and varnished, looking like a million dollars. Three of us – Snyder, me, and another owner who shall remain name- less – sailed her down the Damariscotta River, around Pemaquid, and up Muscongus Sound. Now, there is only one submerged impediment between Pemaquid Point and our home port of Round Pond: Poland North Ledge awaits patiently just below water level, prominently marked by a large can buoy. When on that fateful day the wind died, the (then) third owner took the helm and pow- ered us along at about six knots, all the while engrossed in his own erudite lecture on the sinking of the Lusitania, as Snyder and I furled the generous mainsail. Suddenly our cush- ioned world of the sea was rudely replaced by an 8.2 Richter scale jolt. As our upper fil- ings fell to the deck, Sazerac lurched over on her beam, and we literally ground to an indelicate halt square atop Poland North Ledge. Bright green “C3″ glistened not ten yards away. Right, red, return indeed! Necessity called upon us to craft Cruising Rule #3 at once: IN THE RARE AND UNLIKELY EVENT THAT DAMAGE TO THE CRAFT IS SUS- TAINED DUE TO AN UNDENIABLE AND INESCAPABLY HUMAN ERROR, LACK OF JUDGMENT, OR JUST PLAIN STUPIDITY, NO MENTION OF THE INCIDENT SHAH BE MADE AT THE TIME, NOR THEREAFTER, TO THOSE ON BOARD WHO WITNESSED THE EVENT. MOST ESPECIALLY, NOTHING SHALL EVER BE DIS- CLOSED TO THOSE ASHORE. The rock has been locally re-named in honor of the hapless helmsperson,” ‘s Mistake.” These are three of our Cruising Rules. Others continue to evolve and expand as cir- cumstances permit – and demand. The Cruising Rules have become indispensable in pro- tecting and sustaining annual sailing relationships on Muscongus and Penobscot Bays. Try them. Refine them. Celebrate them. Amend them. Embellish them with the wisdom of your own experiences at sea. But always bear in mind that it is the CONCEPT of cruis- ing rules which is universal and immutable. Particular cruising rules, like particular sailors and particular vessels, are idiosyncratic and must be reckoned with case by case. “The Gods do not deduct from our allotted time on Earth the days we spend sailing.” This extraordinary insight makes it obligatory that each of us spend a maximum number of days at sea. Which, in turn, makes it essential we find ways of forging hospitable rela- tionships with our sailing companions. It is no exaggeration to say, therefore, that the absence of Cruising Rules is life-threatening; and their presence is truly a gift of the Gods. Now you know why, the moment Snyder comes aboard, he inquires, “Roland, are we on cruising rules yet?” Editor’s Note: We are told that a complete version of Cruising Rules will be published in book form this fall, “Sometime after the boat is hauled. ” 21

Boothbay, ME 347 Lincoln St. Norwell, MA Milton, MA Friendship, ME Scituate, MA Friendship, ME The Bancroft & Morang Awards The Bancroft Award is given in memory of Winthrop Bancroft, owner of Elicia HI, and an early and enthusiastic supporter of the Society. It is awarded to celebrate an unusual contribution to the Friendship tradition. It might recognize an outstanding voyage, the launching of a new sloop or the restoration of an old one, the work of a poet, a painter or a model maker. This year’s award went to John Gould: an original incorporator of our Society; Master of Ceremonies at early banquets; author of numerous articles, essays and books about Friendship and Friendship sloops; editor of the yearbook; and, while we raced in Friendship, enthusiastic supporter of the Pendleton Scholarship Fund. His wife Dorothy, with John’s support, ran a gift shop featuring Friendship collectibles; he rallied high school girls to sell peanuts from an antique peanut-roasting machine on the wharves; and he saw that ice was always available – with proceeds from all going to the Fund. He also made numerous dump runs on the principle that cleanliness is next to godliness. The Morang Award is in memory of Bruce N. Morang: helmsman, Yearbook Editor, Race Committee Chairman, and a pillar of our Society. Professionally, he was a newspa- per editor and a talented writer. The award is for the best manuscript submitted for publi- cation in the Yearbook. In 1995, it went to Harold Burnham for “The Sawzall.” 31
