Jim Emmi – Celebration of His Life
Jim Emmi, brilliant engineer, successful developer, Newport Beach pioneer, philanthropist to many organizations, sailor extraordinaire
and loving husband to Catherine, was honored at a Celebration of Life June 25, at his beloved Bahia Corinthian Yacht Club. Jim passed
away May 14, just one month short of his 100th birthday. A man who lived life to the fullest, Jim was adored by his wife, Catherine, and
son, Cameron Pearce. They are proud of his accomplishments and wanted to honor him, as he has done so much for the community.
A good place to start to show Jim’s joy of life, would be the Emmi’s Nautor 43 Swan sloop, Pele, named after the volcano goddess.
This boat represents the intense energy that Jim and Catherine spent supporting important events. Purchased in 1978, Jim sailed her
from Finland, arriving in Newport Beach after an 11-month voyage, with a revolving crew of family and friends. A legendary ocean
sailor, he flew the BCYC burgee throughout the long journey. He was commodore of BCYC, a member for over 44 years, and helped
the club financially in its early days. A couple of years ago, a committee boat was donated and appropriately named Emmi. Over
the years, Jim participated in over 100 races on the Swan and a previous Islander 37, winning many trophies. He participated in 23
Newport to Ensenada races and was very proud of racing in the inaugural BCYC Around the Islands Race in 2016, an overnight 125-mile
competition involving rounding Catalina, Sutil and Santa Barbara Islands, beginning and ending in Newport Beach.
Jim, along with Catherine, was an avid golfer, belonging to Newport Beach Golf Course. Living in Irvine Terrace for many years made it
convenient to get to their yacht club, golf club, and the Balboa Bay Club. Jim was one of the original residents in this area, specifically
planning to be close to the places he enjoyed. He was the president of Kimberly Development Company and a manager of apartment
properties. He was a member of the Chapman University Board of Trustees and served on the Pacific Symphony Board of Trustees
since 1990. His friends will miss having a conversation with Jimmy, as he had his mischievous side, a laugh you continually wanted to
hear and a heart of gold. This, the original Renaissance man, who loved so much, was grateful for it all, and showed his appreciation.
When Jim met Catherine at an SOS (Share Our Selves, an Orange County nonprofit) event in China Cove, at the home of Kathy and Jerry
Thompson, he knew he had met his match. Catherine, a kindergarten teacher for over 25 years, had more liveliness than the 30-plus
children in each of her classes, as Jim would attest.
The Emmis have been true music lovers,
understanding its importance to our community,
and generously supported the Pacific Symphony
since 1987. Wishing to advance health care in
Orange County and beyond, the Emmi Family
donated to the Hoag Hospital Foundation to
support the Hoag Neurosciences Institute.
“Every gift, large or small, stands out and makes
a difference,” stated Jim, who hoped to inspire
others to give.
Jim fully represented the pay it forward philosophy,
so vital in today’s world. In 2013, Jim and Catherine
were Chapman University’s Citizen of the Year.
They were honored for supporting Serving People
in Need (SPL) and were hailed as “OC Heroes of
Philanthropy,” joining other big-hearted Orange
County citizens. Let’s give Jim a perpetual toast for
making the world a better place.

Junior Awards Banquet
The Aug. 7 BCYC Junior Awards Banquet celebrated
the accomplishments of the junior sailors this year. Each
sailor was presented with a participation award, and a
select few in each class were given special awards, such as
most outstanding and most improved. Perpetual trophies
were also presented to the most outstanding and most
improved sailors out of the entire program, along with most
enthusiastic, best sportsmanship and more. The 2016 Camp

It’s been a quiet summer for ongoing projects at the club. We
are currently in the process of getting bids for improvements
to be done on the main floor of the clubhouse. As you
know, this is where most of the wear and tear occurs and
we are focusing on areas needing the most attention. These
improvements will include refinished woodwork, carpeting
and new or refinished chairs and table tops in the Columbia
Room. Our goal is to have as much work as possible done
during the Christmas holiday when the club is closed.
We have new sink top accessories in the men’s and women’s
restrooms on the main floor, as well as the lower level. These
items are a gift to the club from Las Commodoras. Thank
you, Nancy Bryant, for pulling this together.
A Different Kind of Cruise
All categories of membership are growing, a very positive
sign. The JFlag group has held three events, getting to know
each other and talking about how they can make this class of
members stronger.

Calling All Boaters
As I have stated in the past, one of the duties of the vice
commodore is to oversee, assist and implement the club’s
on-the-water activities. One of the primary goals at BCYC
is promoting yachting, be it our Junior Program, racing
programs or cruising. Each of these endeavors requires
the efforts of teams of member volunteers and staff, who
graciously give their time to ensure that whatever our
yachting interest, it will be fulfilled beyond our expectations.
A great example of this teamwork is Taco Tuesday, where we
regularly host racing, a great buffet for more than 100 people
and more than 30 boats each Tuesday during the summer.
Our Clambake cruise to the Del Rey Yacht Club Catalina
Island station, under the guidance of Rhonda Tolar, and
assisted by Cruise Chairs Secretary Steve and Lauri Moffett,
hosted some 75 members and their children aboard 20
boats. We were treated to an outstanding event filled
with great food and events for everyone. This cruise was
preceded by our Dana Point raft-up that culminated in a
dinner at which Kari and Staff Commodore Paul Konapelsky
graciously entertained 81 members and guests for dinner at
their home. Many members drove down for the dinner, and
we had 11 boats in Dana Point Harbor.
Clambake used to be a sell-out, with over 150 members
attending, and our other cruises generally would have at
least 20 boats participating. Our marina is full, so there is
no reason we should not get out and support these hardworking volunteers and staff, who are constantly arranging
and organizing opportunities for all of us to use our boats
and enjoy the local waters. Please let me, or any of the
Race or Cruise Committee members know, if you have any
suggestions that may have been overlooked that would
improve participation. Also, this is the time of year we look
for members to lead or participate in our various committees
for the coming year – if you or someone you think might be
interested, please let us know.
August/September 2016
Fever!
WOW, what a catch! Our very own junior sailing director,
Cameron MacLaren, recently caught a magnificent
128.5-pound bluefin tuna. I asked Cameron to give us the
tale of his catch.
“It was an epic day of offshore tuna fishing near Oceanside
on June 20. Captain Nate Dunham struck first and hooked
one on a popper, landing a 70-pound bluefin within 10
minutes. Shortly after, I got in a nice long cast over the top of
an anchovy cloud and got a hit halfway through the wind. We
both saw the fish roll on my popper and knew it was a bigger
model. From the beginning, it pulled like a freight train and
never really let up, so I started tightening drag several clicks
every few minutes. I got him up to 50 feet below the boat
after 30 minutes, but could not seem to gain any headway
from there. He continued dogging me for the next hour.
“Time rolled on and I kept cranking drag until I literally
couldn’t get another click, and even with it buttoned, I was
still losing as much as I was gaining. With my limbs shaking,
I doubted I would physically be able to win the fight. Thanks
to some motivational words from Nate, I dug as deep as I
could to keep his head turned and got him to the surface.
When I finally got the fish next to the boat, Nate went in with
the gaff, but the tip deflected off its incredibly thick skin. He
quickly followed up with a solid gaff, after which I exchanged
my rod for another gaff and set mine. It took every bit of our
combined strength to get that fish over the gunwale. This
picture is the ending of my great day, weighing my fish at the
Balboa Angling Club.”
“Kiss Your Catch” update – Vice Commodore Chuck Wert
kissed his first catch during our club 24+ hour fishing
challenge during the Long Beach Yacht Club cruise!
Let’s get out on the water and have some fun. That’s why
many of us joined BCYC.
A Note from our Chaplain . . .

school, you’re taught a lesson and then given a
test. In life, you’re given a test that teaches you

BCYC Members –
So Much Fun!
Summer
Memories
The Junior Staff Commodore’s cruise to San Diego, where we
visited San Diego and Coronado Yacht Clubs, was a real treat.
Thanks to Junior Staff Commodore Craig and Joan Delaney
for planning such a great trip with perfect weather. The Dana
Point raft-up and beach party at the home of Staff Commodore
Paul and Kari Konapelsky was a blast! We anchored seven
boats near the Marine Institute and four more were in guest
slips. With the water at 76 degrees, everyone jumped off their
boats and enjoyed a group swim! Thank you, Kari and Paul,
for opening your home and putting on a fabulous party, and
special thanks to all who helped with this cruise. Visit the club
website to see the event pictures.
Wow, what a summer – BCYC members enjoyed some
fantastic events at our club. Remember how beautiful the
club looked for the Father’s Day Art and Car Show event? It’s
always amazing to see the creativity that our members have.
Our August Clambake was back at the Del Rey Yacht Club
facility in Cat Harbor. Our “Under the Sea” festivities included
barbecues, a luau, dinghy mystery game, Bunco, and buildand race-your-own boat. Thank you to Rhonda Tolar, fabulous
cruise captain, and all who helped over the weekend. We
greatly appreciated all that was done by General Manager Scott
Jones, Chef George Rapicault and the club staff – the food and
libations were great!
We had our fill of pizza, popcorn and movie candy, too, at
the Patio Movie Nights, featuring “Guardians of the Galaxy,”
“Finding Nemo” and then finishing off summer with the
classic, “Captain Ron.” The made-to-order pizzas, hot out of
the new ovens, were amazing.
Next up – Cambria Land Cruise, Sept. 30-Oct. 2. This is a
land cruise where we will drive up the coast to Cambria for
the Scarecrow Festival! Plan to leave Newport Beach and stop
for lunch in Pismo Beach at the Ventana Grill on the 30th.
Saturday, our bus will take us to three wineries and lunch.
Saturday night will be a group dinner in town. NO BOAT
NEEDED, so please consider joining us.
The cruise to Avalon, Oct. 21-23, will be our last cruise for
2016. Sign up begins Sept. 24 for this popular cruise. If you
don’t have a boat, consider getting a room on the island. More
details will follow, but we will have our famous Mini Golf
tournament for the coveted Konapelsky Trophy.
Of course, who could forget how patriotic the club was
dressed for the Fourth of July Family Potluck Patio Party.
Juver Garcia and Mario Nieto got the club ready, and Linda
Ritchie headed the Activities Committee decorating team.
Remember dancing to the fun tunes provided by Steve Woods
and then finding the perfect spot to view the fireworks?
Capping off the summer with Tuscany on the Terrace was a
highlight. Revelers stomped grapes, rode in a gondola, and
dined on delicious creations by Chef Georges Rapicault and
his culinary team, while dancing the night away under the
stars to the sounds of Hot Club de Bop.
Now it’s time to start thinking about the fall season, including
the Cowboy Western Roundup, Oct. 29, Awards Night on
Nov. 5, and decorating the club for the holiday season the
weekend of Nov. 19-21. Please come join us to plan these
activities and more on the second Wednesday of each month
at 7:30 p.m.
Sept. 8 at 7 p.m., there will be an important Cruise
Committee meeting. Please come and give us your input as
we discuss a new “adventure cruises” idea and locations for
the 2017 cruising season. We look forward to seeing you there.

A Great Summer
Summer Fun
Las Commodoras kicked off June with a cooking class luncheon
featuring Chef Georges Rapicault. The frog legs were wonderful
and a fun topic of discussion!
Del Mar Race Day in July was a great success. More than 30
BCYC members and guests enjoyed roundtrip transportation,
reserved seating in the II Palio Patio section — where we had
a fabulous lunch — and betting the ponies! A day at the races
is not complete without the “best hat” contest. Diane DiMaria
captured first place, with Jane Stratton a close runner-up.
Congratulations ladies. Race Day in 2017 will be something
you won’t want to miss.
We are looking forward to an afternoon at Sherman Gardens
and Library on Sept. 15. Lunch and a wonderful garden tour
will be another fun day.
The BCYC Junior Board is happy to report this BCYC summer
has been a great one! Our junior sailors have dominated on
the water, delicious burgers have been served every Friday at
Burger Bash, and we are all enjoying a happy summer on the
bay.
The year has flown by, and I’m amazed this is my last Masthead
article as BCYC’s junior commodore. Since becoming a junior
director in 2009, I’ve risen through the ranks and have learned
so much. I loved working together with such a talented team,
and we’ve accomplished great things. My special thanks goes to
all of the current junior board members, especially the officers,
for being such terrific partners; showing incredible dedication
to the club. I’d also like to thank Commodore Sandy Mills and
the senior board for their support of our efforts. We will have
Poker Night again and hope you are all up for the challenge!
I’d also like to thank all of the BCYC members, friends and
family who attended Le BCYC Bingo. We could not have done
it without you, and invite you to join us for more bingo in
2017. Lastly, I thank my mom, Mrs. Mara Hampton, for her
service as the junior board advisor. Your care, consideration
and commitment to excellence led us to new heights!
I’m leaving the board in great hands. Sammy Pickell is BCYC’s
next junior commodore, and I know she will lead the juniors
through another phenomenal year. I hope you’ve all had as
great a summer as I have, and know that BCYC will continue
to thrive as one of the best yacht clubs. Cheers to the future.

A Really Big
Shew
Those of us with some snow on the roof will remember the
“Ed Sullivan Show,” an early TV program that featured a
variety of performers, from the Beatles to Señor Wences.
Ed would frequently say, “We have a really big shew tonight,”
and the fun would begin. Well, not to be outdone, I wanted
to tell you that August and September racing will prove to
be an equally big shew.
Taco Tuesdays wound up with five evenings of racing/
partying in August. Did you experience the club on Taco
Tuesdays? Were you able to find an empty table? Make plans
to be part of this event in 2017.
The Angelman Series winds up in September. After three
months of multiple windward-leeward races, the “best
overall” position is still up for grabs.
September is also Club Championship month. On the 17th
and 18th, members will race windward-leeward courses
to compete for the “Family Division” and “Championship
Division” trophies. As I’ve mentioned before, get certified so
that you can practice on the club’s Harbor 20.
September 24 is the Harbor 20 Tune-Up race. You will see
more windward-leeward racing (five rapid-fire races…twice
around the marks). This is a really great event for spectators.
Like Ed’s audience, you will be in for quite a shew.
More racing is in store in future months, including the NOSA
14-Mile Bank Race in October, the AOCYC Fall Finale in
November and our own Hot Rum Series in November,
December and January!
Visit the club office to purchase your burgee stickers!
Fantasy Sail 2016
Bahia Corinthian Yacht Club will host the Gary Jobson
Fantasy Sail Dec. 2-3. For 18 years, BCYC members have
been involved in raising funds for Leukemia and Lymphoma
research through the Leukemia Cup Regattas, a series of
sailing events that combine the joy of boating with the
important task of raising money for LLS to help find a cure
for blood cancers. Participants have raised more than $58
million to help advance the LLS mission since the regatta
series’ inception in 1987. BCYC has been involved since
1998, with the club’s events raising just over $1 million!
For the past 11 years, Staff Commodore Ted and Connie
O’Connor have had the opportunity to race against sailors
from other parts of the United States who have also
participated in LLS regattas. The Gary Jobson Fantasy
Sail is an annual gathering involving the country’s regatta
sailors who raise the most money for LLS. It is hosted by
Leukemia Cup Chairman Gary Jobson, the tactician on
Ted Turner’s American’s Cup winner, Courageous, in 1976,
and an internationally known ESPN and Olympics sailing
broadcaster, author and lecturer, and leukemia survivor.
Each year, a different yacht club is chosen by Gary to host
the event. The 2015 regatta was held at Royal Bermuda
Yacht Club, where it was announced that the next gathering
would be at Long Beach Yacht Club. Ted asked Jobson and
Marty Siederer, from the national LLS office, to reconsider.
After presenting strong reasons for having the event in
Newport Beach, it was determined that BCYC would be the
2016 Fantasy Sail host.
With outstanding help from Sail Fleet Captain Paul DeCapua
and BCYC LLS regatta chair, Nancy Levy, BCYC is putting
together an exciting event for the expected 150 participants
from yacht clubs around the United States.
“All of our Fantasy Sail qualifiers are looking forward to a
great weekend of sailing, but most importantly, to hearing
updates on the progress made in fighting blood cancers,”
said Jobson. “The sailing community has provided amazing
support for LLS and I am living proof of the progress that
has been made with fighting these diseases. However, so
much more needs to be done to offer help and hope to the
patients and their families on the front lines of the cancer
battle.”
Please contact Staff Commodore Ted O’Connor if you
would like to help BCYC welcome these outstanding sailors,
leading the way to finding a cure.
