Paul Clinton DAILY PILOT NEWPORT BEACH -South County leaders weren't shy about lowering the1r sights on Orange County's responses to quesbons about the proposed airport at the dosed El Toro Marine Corps Air Station. Not long after the county's Local Redevelopment Authority released 17 volumes of responses, totaling some 11,500 pages, the El Toro Reuse Planning Authority weighed in on the subject. A handful of other groups bad also submitted comments and con- cerns, including Newport Beach, supporters of a runway altemativ~ created by a retired Newport Beach engineer, the Irvine Co. and dozens or other groups and individuals. Not surprisingly, Newport Beach threw its support behind the report, saying it is "thorough and accurate" and applauding the county for demonstrating "great sensitivity to the surrounding communities.• About hall of the city's residents are affected by noise from flights operating at John Wayne Airport.

Daily Pilot A bumpy ride up the coast Q uite a few readers have asked for me to write about my •04- nautiCal mile voyage aboard Bayport Yachts caiver 530 from Newport Harbor to Gas Cove in San Francisco, a trip that requires rounding the notorious Point Conception, so here is a brief synopsis. For this trip, we needed all the fuel we rou1d hoki until our next fuel stop 3Z1 nautical miles away at Santa Cruz Hlllbor, the city that p~ to be a no- nuke city-whatever that means. No micro\\'aves, per- bap&1 So, oo tbe way out c1 Newport was my custooMlry stop at Hill's Puel Servire where Gary Hill topped ctf our diesel tanks, and allowed time fer Tun We&t my first ctfioor & engi- neer, to replaa! the primary fuel filters. It is always a plessure to dlat with Gary, who is a wealth of sea-going knowtedge and a master c1 POnt Cmooptim. Departing Newport at noontime in bumpy yet tolera- ble sea conditions only wors- ened when we entered the Santa Barbara O\annel where the shipping lanes twn at Port Huename. The sun was start- ing to set and the winds were inaea.sing 20 to 30 knots building the seas at 6 to 8 feet with a 5-second interval that began to pound the yacht. I tried to get a break from the seas by shadowing in the lee of a freighter going about 15 knoes, but we bad to slow down to 12 knots going around Point CooceptioD. COD· stantly taking water over our flybrldge from the wind chop. 1be seas began to lessen nee.ring Point SUr where the Padfic heom>e a pood with smooth water for the rest of the bip, however now comes the fog alter our fuel stop at Santa Cruz. We hit a thick fog bank with less than a quarter mile visibility, making US DAV· igate only by radar, GPS, lis- tening for signals, and moni- toring vessel traffic service for the reports of inbound and outbound ship activity. This made the approach to San Francisco Bay a littJe diffi. cult as, c1 course. the fog thick- ens between the hlDs at the San Prandsco Bay entrance so much that we could not see the Golden Gate Bridge as we passed underneath hoping not to t-bone the inbo\md support column that radar cannot dif. ferentiate. Funny, as we were approaching Gas Cove just a ooup1e miles in from the Goki- en Gate, tbe fog lifted allowing us to ftnd the smaD.-proteded opening to tbe Cove where we stepped off and the owner stepped on to mnttnue to bis boo18 port at DbooYery Bay. Another sete trlp and no trip for tbe faint hearted. I asked myself "Why do I keep cbng this? For the adventure?

John Kldwell SPECIAL TO THE DAILY PILOT • EDITOR'S NOTE: During a 35-day journey from New Orleans to New- port Beach via the Panama canat, Lt; John Kidwell, commander of the new Coast Guard cutter Narwhal · has offered to keep the Newport: Mesa community updated on the crew's journey through a series of ~II reports and photos from a dozen ports of call. The following Is his sixth report as he takes our readers aboard the ship: On the morning of Aug. 5, we cast off lines from British Grand Cayman and headed south to Panama. Our short stay in the Grand Caymans was outstanding. However, after only a few days it was time to move on. The 625-mile track line to Cristobol, Panama was, at 10 knots, a long one. EncoUJlter· ing heavy seas the entire way, the crew was able to conduct training and build a greater faith in their new ship's abili· ties under extreme conditions. Both Narwhal and her crew operated flawlessly in the heavy weather, encoun- tenng more than 10-to 15- f oot seas. Looking back, this l~g· was nothing short of exhausting. I would recom- mend to any mariner of a smaller vessel to sail south- east to Port De Limon, Costa Rica (on the gulf side) and break up the trip, giving themselves some much need- ed rest and supplies. At about 0900 (9 a.m.) on the morning of Aug. 8, we anived in Panama. Negotiat- ing the canal quickly becomes a logistic nightmare for a smaller vessel like ours. Unable to transit alone, we were forced along the side wall and stuck between nwnerous large freighters. The quick 42-mile bip ended up taking us more than 19 hours. Anyone thinking about making this journey, please feel free to contact us when we return to our Corona del Mar moorings. We collected much information that would be beneficial to smaller ves- sels to make the transit safer and fa¥er. Arriving at 0200 (2 a.m.) in Rodman, Panama, with no available pier space, we were fortunate to find the U.S. Coast Guard cutter Gentian -a 180-foot international training vessel. She allowed us to moor alongside. take on fuel and get a few boun of rest. Tbe aew of the Gentian were lifesaven. It was great to see a friend- ly face after the long, 19-hour transit. Once fueled and with just an hour or two of rest, we set sail for the blue water of the Pacific. The entire crew was extremely happy and , cheered as our gyro compass read ~north.• Our next stop would be Golfito, Costa Rica. • • • Leaving Panama behind us, we started on our 329· mile track line to Golfito, Cos· ta Rica. Incredibly, the clouds parted and the seas calmed, making this leg a welcome rest. Immediately entering Golfito, Costa Rica, we were greeted with overwhelming hospitality. Costa Rica is breathtaking, to say the least. The port Qf Golfito is very sheltered and the moorings are good for a vessel of almost any size.· I strongly recom- mend Golfito to be a stop on any northbound mariner's sail plan. Not physically touching land since British Grand Cay- man, the crew was due for a good liberty stop. Taking in the local sights: the moun- tains, the jungles and, of course, tbe1ncred.1b1e surfing, the aew is really getting a chance to stretch its legs. Logistically, Golfito iJ per- fect. Water, fuel and prmry- sio.ns are all readily available. Even more importantly, the people of Golfito are incredi- bly friendly and helpful. As far as port stops go, I don't know if we are going to be able to top this one. So far, Costa Rlca _has my vote, and the vote on the ship Js over- whelmingly the same. Looking forward, we will be departing on Monday morning (Aug. 13) for Fonse- ca, El Salvador. Once there, the Commander of the El Sal- vadoran Navy, as well as the crew of the El Salvadoran Naval Vessel PM-12, will await us. PM-12 is formerly the U.S. Coast Guard cutter Point Stuart of Corona del Mar. We are very much looking forward to seeing our old ship and see how she is perform- ing for the Navy of El Sal- vador. We are also excited to see the El Salvadoran crew, who we all befriended back in April. We often wonder how their transit south worked out, after they took control of their new ship . We shall see.

The designs originate in Dobrott's home where green- shuttered windows let the sun in and where palm trees grow year-round. Sometimes, they end up as far away as Puerto Vallarta and Singapore. •You see a lot of it in the airport," Dobrott, 43, said of her shirts. ·And it feels really good.

She spent much of her childhood on the beach. She remembers biking over to 44th Street where a friend lived -the house had a front yard that was the ocean -and hanging out everyday. Today, the 43-year-old designer is learning to surf. Her job has taken her to Waikiki and the other Hawai- ian islands so many times that she knows the exact order of hotels along a well- known Waikikian strip. She is familiar with the tropical ambience of the Caribbean and closer coastal states. Her knowledge of all things having to do with the beach shows up in her designs, which are done in watercolor, gauche and by computer. The result? A promotion of the resort lifestyle, Dobrott adrruts. Sporting a golden tan and copped pants of her own design, she sipped from a blue mug of tea at home this week as the sun hit her petite but browned h'ame and said she can't help but sell this life. ·1 mean, who wouldn't want to live here?"

"This year, we're doing pajama bottoms,• said Dobrott, whose son is a stu- dent at the school. Some of her designs, including an Asian-print line. show nothing of the surf life. But most of her prints cater to the surf-and-resort industry. When asked why the favoritism, Dobrott says she likes the fun.
