The City of Newport Beach has been teaching boating safety to the public for decades, with sailing
classes taught on the beaches of Newport Harbor. In 2015, the City christened its new community
center, Marina Park, and opened its Sailing and Boating Center.
Marina Park amenities include a 10.5 acre park, bay -side facilities for events, a nautical-themed
playground, outdoor fitness circuit, basketball courts, an on -site cafe adjacent to the sailing center,
catering, a picnic area and a public marina. There are also 177 Marina Park -designated parking
spaces, which on the crowded Newport Peninsula, allow for ease of access to Marina Park. Aside
from the facility rental space, Marina Park offers classes and programs in a variety of offerings for all
ages. Marina Park is open to everyone, year-round, and serves as an extraordinary bay -front center
for fun, family, gatherings and celebrations.
Most importantly, Marina Park's Sailing and Boating program provides cost-effective, broad access
to safe boating education for the public.
The Sailing and Boating Center is front and center at the facility, with a large interior boat bay,
offices and large configuration of docks that are solely dedicated to the sailing and boating program.
Because Marina Park draws close to 190,000 visitors every year, from all over the world, it is
uniquely qualified to disseminate information and, because it is a bay -front facility with a highly
visible boating program, the City can provide unrivaled public access to classes that promote
boating safety. The potential is limitless, and the City has made a strong commitment to building its
boating safety program with the purchase of a large and varied fleet of sailboats, as well as staffing
a year-round City boating coordinator, experienced boating equipment manager, and a large pool of
part-time employees.
When Marina Park was built seven years ago, the City developed the site with the specific goal of
providing boating education and access to the public. The Sailing and Boating mission is to provide
cost-effective classes and access to the harbor through a variety of boating education courses.
The City of Newport Beach has been providing boating safety programs for many years, well before
Contract # C8967310, City of Newport Beach, Aquatic Center Grant FY 2022-23. Date: 02/16/2023 Page: 9 of 86
Exhibit A
Marina Park existed, running its programs on the beach without a stand-alone facility.
In 2020, the City parted ways with UCI and opted to take over the administration of the boating
program, The City hired Orange Coast College as the new contracted sailing instructor, providing
the instruction for the City's sailing classes, as well as proctoring the on -water "ratings" tests for the
City's Sail Pass (sailboat rental program,)
Past-Covid; in April of 2021, just more than a year ago, the City onboarded OCC, and all sailing
classes are conducted out of Marina Park.: using the fleet of City sailboats. The City made another
large commitment to its boating safety program by purchasing the six J22s from UCI, so that there
would be continuity with the City program and its boating safety classes would remain familiar to its
customers. The remainder of the sailboat fleet and equipment is all owned and maintained by the
City. In addition to the six .i22s, the City's fleet consists of 12 RS Quests, 2 RS Ventures, 20 Schock
Sabots, 3 Lido 14s, as well as 35 SUPs and 24 Kayaks - all of which are used for the City's sailing
and boating classes. Last year, the City also added to its fleet the two DBAW-granted coach boats,
which have been used for hundreds of hours of sailing instruction.
The City offers beginner, intermediate, and advanced sailing classes to people of all ages, in both
dinghies and keelboats — open seven days a week, year-round. The City also offers after school
sailing and youth camps designed specifically to teach safety to our future boaters. The City works
closely with the local elementary school, as well, providing a school -specific "After Class Enrichment
(ACE)" sailing program for their students. One of the City's most popular classes is the "Parent and
Me" in which parents can accompany their children and learn together, The City summer youth
camps have always been well -attended and have taught countless youth, through the years, how to
be safe boaters.
OCC's US Sailing -certified instructors conduct all classes out of the Marina Park facility and use,
exclusively, the City's fleet of sailboats, as well as coach boats. City staff members oversee
registration, curriculum, and scheduling of classes, as well as play a major role in the promotion of
classes, in person, print and online. City staff run all the Sailing & Boating operations, including but
not limited to, running the boat bay, overseeing boating class scheduling and course curriculum;
creating promotions, operating the office, maintaining the fleet, interacting with the public, as well as
creating and executing all the policies and procedures.
The City also oversees the paddle rentals and sailboat rentals (Sail Pass). With both rental entities,
the City perceives this as another opportunity to provide a boating safety message to its customers.
Rather than provide a renter with a board and paddle and no education, our experienced and
trained City staff take the time to provide a comprehensive orientation on proper stance, holding of
the paddle, technique, boat traffic, boating rules, capsize information and safety tips. Our staff
carefully explains wild direction, how to read the wind with flags and ripples, and why the wind is a
key factor in paddling, along with tides and current. Staff encourages each of our paddlers to begin
their journey paddling upwind, so that they recognize the difference when they are met with a
headwind, Although California law states that a PFD only needs to be on board, the City rule is that
all our paddlers must wear a property fitting, City -provided, US Coast Guard approved lifejacket.
Staff takes the time to fit each paddler, explaining why a loose PFD serves no purpose. Staff
ensures that each jacket is snugly fitted, and that the paddler understands why they're wearing one.
Each paddler must be able to swim 50 yards and no one under the age of 18 is allowed on the
water without an adult.
Staff also reviews rules of the road and emergency procedures. Paddlers are taught how to climb
back onboard, should they fall off. They are taught how to stay with their craft in an emergency, and
how to hail other boaters by waving a paddle or using the provided whistle. They are also
encouraged to be aware of all other boaters on the water, to anticipate developing situations and to

stay to the sides of the channel, keeping clear of traffic.
The City does not allow walk-in sailboat renters, but instead has an internal written and on -water
ratings test system, which is designed to develop the boating safety knowledge of more experienced
sailors. Only upon successfully passing this two-part test is a sailor allowed to rent a City sailboat.
The sailor may choose between a dinghy or keelboat ratings test but must rate in each if they
choose to rent both types of boat, Many of our renters are students who have learned to sail in the
City program, and now the Sail Pass allows them access to the bay with their family and friends.
introducing more people to boating safely.
The City's boating program falls under the Recreation and Senior Services (RSS) Department of the
City. Its mission statement is "to enhance the quality of life by providing diverse opportunities in safe
and well -maintained facilities, open spaces and parks. We pledge to respond to community needs
by creating quality educational; environmental, recreational, cultural, and social programs for people
of all ages."
Under the RSS umbrella, all the City's boating programs are geared toward creating safe and
knowledgeable boaters and paddlers. The City's mission and goals for its safe boating program at
Marina Park dovetails with the Coast Guard's goals and strategies listed below "to ensure the public
has a safe, secure, and enjoyable recreational boating experience by implementing programs that
minimize the loss of life, personal injury, and property damage while cooperating with environmental
and national security efforts."
After just this year onboarding OCC as its sailing vendor, the City of Newport Beach has provided
roughly 174 sailing classes. The initial establishment of a sailing program with OCC instructors was
rolled out in a methodical fashion, testing different class formats to see what appealed to the public.
Also, given the Covid restraints during the initial onboarding, the number of classes, as well as the
class sizes were limited. The City plans to keep expanding the number of boating safety classes it
offers during the next year.
Mission and Strategic Plan of the National Recreational Boating Safety Program:
The Mission of the National Recreational Boating Safety (RBS) Program is "to ensure the public has
a safe, secure, and enjoyable recreational boating experience by implementing programs designed
to minimize the loss of life, personal injury, and property damage while cooperating with
environmental and national security efforts. The Coast Guard has released the Strategic Plan of the
National Recreational Boating Safety Program for 2017-2021 to address the following initiatives; 1)
Improve and expand recreational boating education, training, and outreach; 2) Update, leverage,
and enforce policies, regulations, and standards; and 3) Improve upon and expand recreational
boating data collection and research.
Objective 1 • Targeted Boating Safety Education Approach (Page 2)
Z.a. Tell us why DBW should fund your program, not why you need the funding. In other words, how would it benefit
boaters for you to be a recipient of this fundirig? This is an opportunity for you to lell how your program stands
out. Give examples. For instance, do you have specific expertise, a stellar safety record, unique learning
opportunities for boaters, or other things that make your program stand out?
• The City's Marina Park Sailing and Boating program is one of only a few boating safety
education operations in this area serving a population of millions.
• Demand in this area is high for public access to the water.
• The City of Newport Beach has provided sailing and boating classes for decades.
• The City has an exceptional safety record; never having an incident in any of its sailing
programs.
M The Marina Park facility is centrally located, and offers a wide variety of sailing classes, as
Conlred N C8967310. City of Newport Beach. Aquatic. Center Grant FY 2022-23, care: 0211612023 Page: 1'1 of 86
Exhibit A
well as comprehensive boating safety orientations for paddlers.
• Because of its beautiful, public bayfront location, Marina Park draws residents and visitors
from all over the world. This provides a unique opportunity to reach "non -boating" segments
of the population with a boating safety message.
• The Argyros Girl Scout Leadership Center is located at Marina Park. The City provides
boating safety information to the troops that visit the Center, and is working to develop a
sailing program for the Girl Scouts.
• Sailing and Boating offers a Sail Pass program for students to continue their boating
adventure by renting the City's sailboats, upon successful completion of an internal boating
safety testing process — yet another opportunity to reach customers with a boating safety
message.
• Sailing and Boating offers a variety of sailing classes for all ages and levels of ability;
students can choose to learn in five different types of sailboats, including both dinghies and
keelboats.
• Sailing and Boating has a fleet of 43 sailboats dedicated to learning.
• The City has staffed three full-time and at least 13 part-time employees to run Sailing and
Boating seven days a week, year-round.
• Sailing and Boating provides cost-effective access to the water for the general public.
With more than three million residents in Orange County, this is the third most populous county in
California and the sixth most populous in the United States. Newport Harbor is the largest
recreational boat harbor on the US west coast, and a popular destination for all boating activities,
including sailing, fishing, rowing, kayaking and paddle boarding.
Now more than ever, there is a significant need for boating safety education here in the harbor. Our
program in Newport Beach stands out because, despite the millions of residents and visitors, Marina
Park Sailing and Boating is one of only a few operations in town that provide public access to
Newport Harbor, along with boating education for the general public. And the City runs Sailing and
Boating seven days a week, year-round with three full-time and at least 13 part-time employees.
The City of Newport Beach has been offering sailing classes, contracting with outside instructors, for
decades. The City has provided boating safety knowledge to thousands of people of all ages. There
has never been a safety incident (knock on wood) in any of the sailing classes or rentals. Safety is
the City's number one priority in all its classes and rentals, with fun closely ranked behind safety.
The City requires every sailor and every paddler to wear a properly -fitted lifejacket while on the
water, so the US Coast Guard PFD message is regularly repeated to thousands of City boating
customers every year. City staff doesn't simply hand over lifejackets but, instead, works with each
boater to properly fit and secure their lifejacket, explaining why a snug fit is mandatory.
The sheer number of visitors to Marina Park every year makes this venue a unique and ideal
platform for disseminating boating safety information. The Argyros Girl Scout Leadership Center is
located within Marina Park and, in Orange County alone, there are some 40,000 Girls Scouts.
Individual troops earn the opportunity to visit the Center, and we have worked with many troops
providing boating safety information when they come to paddle with us. Sailing and Boating is
currently working to develop a boating safety sailing program as well. It would be offered to all Girl
Scouts.
Many visitors walking by the Sailing boat bay are drawn in, seeing the City's fleet of sailboats and
paddle equipment, curious about our programs and what we provide. This gives us an excellent
opportunity to reach people who would not normally be interested in boating — thinking there wasn't
a route for them to get involved. This segment of the population might only find themselves, as a

on the water. We can pique an interest and provide classes for beginners which, in turn, develops
safe boaters out of this previously "non -boating" demographic.
For the demographic that is already interested in boating, Marina Park is an exciting option
because, not only do we provide the classes from beginning through advanced in both dinghies and
keelboats, but the City then has the Sail Pass program, which provides access so a City -educated
sailor may continue their journey with family and friends. To participate in the City Sail Pass
program, the sailor must take an internal on -water and written "ratings" boating safety test in either a
dinghy, keelboat or both separately to be able to take out those boats. Once a prospective sailor
passes a City -proctored, hour-long, written test, the City's contracted sailing instructor administers a
three-hour, on -water assessment, which is designed to determine if the sailor is a safe and qualified
boater, as well as to provide familiarization with our sailboats. The ratings test is also available to
experienced sailors, who have not taken City classes. Any experienced sailor must "rate" with us
before using City boats to enjoy the water with family and friends. All sailors must be able to swim
and wear properly fitted lifejackets.
The City provides a wide variety of sailing classes that appeal to all ages and levels of ability. Some
classes are structured with the instructor onboard to provide an additional comfort level for the
uncertain beginner. Classes are designed to try to accommodate people's busy lives, so there's
always a class available, whether it's a four -day, two-day, week-long, or solely a few hours of
sailing. Private lessons are also available and are one of the City's most popular options.
The sailboat fleet that the City owns is diversified; from one -person dinghies that appeal to our
youth, to bigger keelboats that provide more comfort for our older demographic. The City owns 20
Schock sabots, three Lido 14's, two RS Ventures, six J22s and 12 RS Quests. Instructors are
always active sailors, certified by US Sailing, with years of coaching and sailing experience. The
City staff hired to run Marina Park Sailing and Boating includes several experienced boaters, as well
as staff who have been involved since the inception of the Marina Park program,
In terms of safety at the facility, Marina Park has always had two safety boats on the docks,
prepared with floating tow -line, small step ladder, spare lifejackets, as well as a prop guard. The
safety boats have always been on the water during any classes and camps, for more than just
instructional purposes. They have been used as a safety platform, close to the on -water activity and
ready to respond, if ever needed. In fact, the safety boat has responded on two separate occasions
(not related to our boating program), when swimmers off the public bay beach needed rescuing. Our
instructors responded, even before the beach lifeguard, and pulled struggling swimmers to safety.
All the instructors who work at Marina Park have always been CPR/First Aid certified. In addition, all
the instructors who have been hired to teach boating safety for the City have always carried a US
Sailing instructor Level 1 certification. The docks at Marina Park all have safety ladders at different
locations on the docks, as well as life rings, ready to be tossed to anyone in the water.

Objective 1 - Targeted Boating Safety Education Approach (Page 4)
Organization demonstrates targeted approach to identified boating safety education needs and utilizes
curriculum that addresses those needs
3:0. List up to three significant boating safety problems affecting boaters at large that you have identified in your
general area. (Covid-19 issues, fires, or problems specific to your organization such as staffing shortages or
trainings, that do not affect boaters at large are Outside the scope of this question). For each safety problem
identified in 3.a, how did you determine that the identified problems were significant?
Overcrowding remains the most significant boating safety problem in Newport Harbor and
competing uses of our bay between a variety of different types of beaters is a key concern.
Just this weekend, an October weekend, coming through the bay, we encountered, in one
area, the Balboa car ferry, sailboats, Duffy's, powerboats, rented electric boats and a
fishing cruise boat leaving the dock.
With more than 9,000 boats docked and moored in Newport Harbor, our bay where we
conduct all our classes is overcrowded, particularly in the summer. Our typically beautiful
Southern California weather draws people to boating activity and, on any given day
throughout the year, there are multiple, competing uses, including paddleboards and
electric boat rentals, day boaters, competitive sailors training and racing, charter boats,
ferries, rowers, fishermen in floats, an anchorage, moorings, gondolas, small party charter
boats (hot tubs, pedaling bars) - to name a few.
Couple the crowding with the fact that most of the boaters are inexperienced and, in many
cases, inept. Even the bigger powerboaters are obviously not educated. They simply liked
a boat, so they bought it, without taking any instructional classes. Fenders out, we see
Contract 4 C8967310, City of Newport f3each. Aquatic Center Grant FY 2022-23, Date- 02116/2023 Page: 14 of 86
Exhibit A
them putting out huge wake, which damages all the boats on docks — not to mention being
a menacing force bearing down on other boaters. When faced with a crowded situation or
sailboats on the water, instead of slowing down and standing by, these operators gun their
boats at increased speed, putting out ocean -sized wake and creating an exceptional safety
hazard.
The rental operations around the harbor rent out electric motor Duffy's, as well as a slew of
paddleboards, kayaks, and fishing skiffs. No experience is required and, often, this is the
first time these renters have ventured out onto Newport Harbor - or even onto the water.
We speak from personal experience that our instructors have rescued more rental
paddleboards (from other operations) than we can remember. Renters are shoved off the
beach by the other concession stands with no instruction, holding the paddles incorrectly,
paddling down the middle of the channel oblivious to any other traffic, not wearing
lifejackets, and incapable of paddling upwind at the end of the day because no one
instructed them on wind and current.
Finally, there are enormous charter boats that cruise with parties and weddings onboard
thrcugh the federal channel. Although they are professionally captained and travel at slow
speeds, they are slow and difficult to maneuver, posing an added danger to the
uneducated boaters on the water, who cut right in front of therm.
In all, our bay, which draws so many visitors, has a distinct need for the boater safety
education that we provide. Despite not teaching powerboat education specifically, the City
produces knowledgeable sailors, who then are competent enough to exercise their skills on
their pleasure outings with friends and families on sailboats or powerboats. The City's
sailing classes teach Rules of the Road, lifejacket safety, and boat maneuvering. Sailors
are generally much more informed and capable on the water than powerboaters, as there
are many more complexities in operating a sailboat, which can then transition into
competent powerboat operation.
Objective I -Targeted Boating Safety Education Approach (Page 5)
3.b. How does the material covered in the course curriculums that you offer directly address these identified
problems? Provide specific examples of material in your curriculum(s) that directly relate to the issues described
in 3_a.
The US Coast Guard says the top ten contributing factors to boating accidents include the
following.
Operator inattention
Operator lookout
Operator inexperience
Excessive speeding
Alcohol use
Machinery failure
Navigation rules violation
Hazardous weather conditions
Hazardous water conditions
Excessive force of wave or wake
Each of these contributing factors is exacerbated by overcrowding, and the City of Newport

Exhibit A
Beach classes are designed to give sailors the tools to recognize and avoid these critical
missteps. Our instructors are at least US Sailing dinghy and keelboat bevel 1 certified, and
our curriculum follows US Sailing's suggested teachings, providing extensive information to
our students on, but not limited to, the following topics that help our sailors navigate safely
in any overcrowded harbor,
Wind direction - the key concept in sailing: Knowing how to read the wind is the first
critical step in keeping a sailor safe and in control. Being in absolute control of a sailboat at
all times, regardless of not having an engine, helps prevent accidents. Knowing precisely
how a sailboat or powerboat will react due to wind conditions is an important tool in
overcrowded situations. Students learn how to control the wind and thus their boat. They
will also begin to understand concepts like "windage" in powerboats and how the wind
affects a boater who is docking. Our sailors are taught about how different types of boats
maneuver on the water. For example, there are a number of large charter boats in our
harbor, so students are taught to give wide berth, knowing that these large vessels cannot
maneuver easily nor stop quickly.
Returning to and Leaving the Dock - both critical concepts to master in an overcrowded
bay. Instructors work with students, especially beginning students, individually talking them
off the dock and onto the course. Students learn how to "shove off' in the proper direction,
always aware of the wind direction and the traffic in the channel off the dock. They are
taught how to properly balance the boat and gain speed and steerage as they depart, More
advanced students are taught how backwinding sails can assist with steering control.
Returning to the dock, students are taught how to slow down in the controlled "safety
position" so they avoid getting caught in irons, but instead glide slowly into the dock, with
the bow just off the wind. Beginners are taught to drop or furl their jibs before they dock for
less sail power, while more experienced sailers are taught how backwinding the main and
big tiller movements can also slow a boat.
Man Overboard Drill - Instructors practice tossing lifejackets into the water simulating
overboard recovery - a good exercise for newer sailors to perfect, helping them to become
more familiar with handling a boat in tight circumstances. Instruction includes alerting the
crew "man overboard," immediately tossing a lifejacket to the person in the water, how to
spot the person in the water and immediately bearing off to circle or figure eight around
and approach slowly and in control upwind.
Safety Position how to slow your boat in order to stand-by to avoid a collision or to return
to the dock slowly. As mentioned above, students are taught the "safety position." Again,
absolute control of the boat at all times is a fundamental pillar of our teachings. If a sailor
has absolute control at all times, this significantly reduces the risk of accidents and injuries..
Our students are taught to "stand by" if they are negotiating a crowded situation, rather
than accelerating through tight quarters.
"Right of Way" rules - the most important of which is to avoid a collision at all costs. This
requires an alert skipper who is aware of traffic and knowledgeable of the rules. Sailors are
taught to maintain a proper lookout, keeping in mind that most boaters don't know the
rules, so never to force their way on the water. Common sense and courtesy are essential
when sailing on our bay. We explain to all our students to never assume the other boater
knows what they're doing. We teach our students to always anticipate that the other boater
Contract-# C8967310, CRY of Newpert Beam, Aquatic Center Grant FV 2022-23, Date-. c211612M Page_ 16 of 86
Exhibit A
may not react or turn in the manner we are expecting, and to always keep clear, be in
control and have a Flan B to avoid collisions.
Safe speed - stated speed is 5 knots for powerboats When sailing in Newport Harbor, the
Inland Right of Way Rules apply. When boats are moving close, we teach our students
which boat is "stand on" and which is "give way." We teach that there are rules that
apply between different types of craft on the water, as well as rules that apply when there
are commercial boats and large boats in confined waterways (our harbor.) Most of all, we
teach our students to never fully trust any other boat operator in our bay. Because we
have so many rentals in this bay, we teach students how to identify risky drivers and how
best to avoid them.
Out curriculum covers how to make a course change so that another boater is clear
regarding your intentions, as well as how to approach another vessel coming head-on.
Overtaking boats keeping clear is also covered. As .mentioned, we have rowers on our
bay, and our students are taught that the rowers cannot maneuver or slow down easily,
and that often they cannot see well.
Charter Boats - Because Newport Harbor is considered a confined waterway, our
students know that they may not impede the passage of large boats, and that the large
charter boats have limited abilities to maneuver at low speeds,
Traffic patterns - In Newport, generally, boaters should stay to the right, but our sailors
are taught to never cross directly in front of another boat. There are mooring fields in
Newport and we teach our sailors and paddlers to stay out of them. We teach our boaters
to keep an eye peeled for rowers, other paddlers, electric boat rentals and the ferry. We
also have lots of competitive sailors on the bay, and we teach our boaters how to steer
clear.
Motorboats vs. Sailboats - Our instructors teach that our sailors should above all keep clear,
regardless of whether they have right of way, assuming that the other boater is not knowledgeable.
However, we of course teach starboard, port, leeward, windward, who has right of way, as well
as other rules of the road.
Ferries - Instructors teach that our sailors should always avoid the ferries and plan their
passage to accomplish this.

Orange Coast College Sailing and Seamanship
Boy Scouts of America Sea Base
Variety of yacht clubs
These are the main programs within the bay offering boating safety courses. The yacht clubs teach
sailing, but their focus is on competition, which the City does not focus upon. The Sea Base
provides Boy Scouts merit badge youth camps of all sorts, on and off the water, including youth
sailing, however they do not provide any adult sailing classes. Also, the Sea Base uses different
types of instructional dinghies than the City offers for its classes. Finally, Orange Coast College
offers youth and adult classes, however their boats used for sailing classes are, again, totally
different, providing a different learning experience. OCC also offers ocean navigation, engine
maintenance and repair, long distance ocean sailing and cruising, and powerboat classes - all
outside the realm of what the City of Newport Beach is offering. In fact, we find that OCC is a good
complement to the City classes, as we focus upon the strict beginner giving them the skills in either
dinghies or keelboats, so that they can become confident skippers within our harbor. For the sailors
who then advance to offshore boating, navigation and powerboating, OCC provides the next step of
instruction. Since April of 2021, when OCC came onboard as the sailing vendor for the City, both
entitites have found great synergy, meshing their programs so that the student has the best of
opportunities.

12.b What are the limitations, if any, that these funding sources place upon your program spending? (i.e., parent
organization will only fund staffing expenses, certain type of activities, or other expenses.)
It's important to note that the City regards Marina Park Sailing and Boating as a community service,
and has made an extraordinary commitment to providing boating education and boating access to
the public. The City owns and maintains a large fleet of sailboats, 6 J22s, 12 IRS Quests, 2 IRS
Ventures and 12 Schock sabots. In addition, the City covers the yearly employment costs of its full
and part-time staffers.
A yearly budget is set by the City, and Sailing and Boating is allotted $5,000 yearly for its program.
Any additional budgetary items above a certain threshhold or pricing increases must be approved
through City Council. As you can imagine, running this program and maintaining a fleet of 42 boats,
including the two DBAW coach boats far exceeds that $5,000 line item. In the last two years, the
DBAW grant has allowed Sailing and Boating to purchase two coach boats, as well as to purchase
sorely needed maintenance and safety items. Without the DBW grant, this program would suffer
greatly.
Objective 3 - To fund organization that are efficient, and financially solvent. (Page 4)
13. Conducting Evaluation & Implementing Improvements
13.a List one important program improvement that was implemented in the last calendar year:
The City just completed the first full year of sailing instruction with its new sailing instructor, OCC.
However, this past summer was the second summer of youth sailing camps, with the camps in 2021
still feeling the effect of Covid-19 restrictions.
Contract 4 C8967310, City of Newport Beach, Aquatic Center Grant FY 2022-23, Date: 02/16/2023 Page: 22 of 86
Exhibit A
For summer camps this past summer, the City tapped into its own resources and programmed two
marine biologists to visit each summer camp once a week. The marine biologists provided half-hour
hands-on lessons, different each week. They ranged from a discussion of sharks, with baby sharks
in jars (crowd pleaser), to examining the oysters that have affixed themselves on our bulkheads,
quietly sifting through any pollution as the tides come in and out.
Each week was a different STEM lesson, with hand-outs and artwork, like seashell magnets, that
the sailors were able to take home. The kids loved it! Sailing is such a STEM -based sport, so it was
productive for the students to hear about the tides and the winds from a purely scientific viewpoint.
The City plans to continue this program next summer.
To identify areas for improvement, City Recreation managers conduct periodic audits of classes and
camps run by City contracted instructors. These audits measure overall instructor performance
including, but not limited to enthusiasm, positive attitude, warmth, empathy, knowledge, patience,
helpfulness, preparation, effectiveness, clarity and appearance. Contracted instructors are assessed
and provided with constructive feedback. The City also holds bi-annual contract instructor meetings
with all contracted City instructors to train, go over policies, procedures, and set expectations for the
upcoming program seasons. If desired, we can provide a PDF that gives an idea of what is covered
at these meetings.
The City is invested in providing excellent customer service and solicits feedback after every class.
The City sends out surveys to program participants at the end of their class period as an
assessment. Customer feedback is gathered regarding the following; instructor's ability to
communicate, keep students active and engaged, overall teaching quality, expectations and were
they met, would customer repeat the class, things they'd change about the class and things they
liked most about the class.
The City also puts together a summary at the end of each quarter that gives a snapshot of its
findings. This is for all programs throughout the City, not just Sailing & Boating. Positive notes are
distributed through the City Manager's newsletter, and feedback is provided to instructors as well as
considered in the planning process for future classes.

13 c. What benefits have you noticed since implementing the improvement?
While it's difficult to determine the exact impression the marine biologists had upon the summer's
campers, it is easy to see when the sailors are engaged and happily enjoying the lesson. That
was the case this summer. Sailors gathered on the beach under a tent or in the boat bay on a
tarp and clamored to hold the jar with the baby shark or touch the sea sponge. Parents were
pleased that tangible lessons were presented on STEM subjects. The take-home handouts
probably generated discussions at home about the moon and why it affects the tides or what
critters lived in the shells their magnets represented.
While this was one small part of a much larger program, the benefits for these campers on a

weekly basis were impactful and definitely dove -tailed with the STEM lessons they were learning
on the water sailing, like geometric angles with tacking or wind direction and ripples with current,
Objective 3 -To fund organization that are efficient, and financially solvent. (Page 4-4)
14, What methods do you use ensure that your programming stays current with new trends?
The City of NB offers a large variety of recreational classes to the public, accommodating all ages,
infants to seniors. because it offers so many different classes, including sailing and boating, the
City must hire out contract instructors who are specialists in each field of recreation. There is no
way the City could staff specialist instructors in the myriad of programs it offers.
However, the Sailing and Boating program runs differently because there is City staff managing this
one program, and the City has made a large financial commitment with the purchase of equipment
dedicated to its community boating program. The City has a vested interest in ensuring its Sailing
and Boating program is successful. The only aspect of this program that is contracted out is the
hiring of the expert instructors, from OCC, to teach the classes. The City staff members hired to
manage this program are qualified to instruct, but the City has dedicated this internal staff to
developing, implementing and managing the program's procedures and day to day operations,
All the instructors who teach the City sailing classes are certified, at least, as US Sailing Level 1
instructors, and our City coordinator and equipment staffer, as well as a few part-time staff, are US
Sailing members and active sailors and racers with extensive boating and sailing experience, both
personally and professionally, Thus, staff is directly tied into the latest coaching techniques, lesson
plans and equipment developments from US Sailing and other resources. Because some of our
staff and instructors are actively involved in competition across the country, they are exposed to
sailors and coaches from all over, as well as other community boating centers, which often host
regattas. Interaction with other community boating managers is often helpful with a variety of topics
including teaching, pricing, equipment, and administration. In addition to staff's personal contacts
Within the boating community, DBW provides an excellent resource of boating managers in
California. The workshops are helpful, particularly with the open conversation centering on how
each agency approaches running its individual program.
The City also relies upon customer feedback, actively soliciting input and distributing customer and
instructor surveys after each class.

Instructions for Creating Equipment Worksheets
Each of the following items must be entered in separate worksheets. They should not be listed in a combined
category such as one of the Supplies categories. Any boats, trailers, engines, modular docking, or storage
sheds listed in a combined Supplies category will be disqualified. Additionally, do not create a category called
Paddling Equipment and then list SUPs, Kayaks, etc. on a single worksheet. These requests will be
disqualified.
Requests Requiring a Separate Worksheet
• Boats
All requests for boats must each have a separate worksheet. All boats are subject to this rule including
motorized boats, sailboats, and any type of paddle craft.
o If, for example, you are requesting 8 sailboats, you will list them together on a single worksheet. If
additionally, you are also requesting 10 kayaks, the kayaks must have their own worksheet. Combining
the two requests on a single worksheet will result in a disqualification of both requests.
o If you are requesting a kayak that includes seat backs and paddles as a set, those items can be
combined with the kayak in the same line item. However, if you are just requesting several seat backs
or paddles to replace worn ones already in your inventory, list those requests in the Supplies-
Replacement/Refurbishment Items category.
• Engines
o You may combine an engine with boat in a single worksheet if they will be used together as a set.
Otherwise, list all engine purchases on a separate worksheet.
o If you are requesting multiple engines of the same type for a similar use, you may combine them into a
single worksheet.
• Trailers
You may combine a trailer with a boat if they will be used together as a set. Otherwise, trailers belong
on a separate worksheet. Note: Trailer does not mean a dolly.
• Modular Docking
o Non -permanent modular docking is allowable in this grant. Requests for docking must be on a
separate worksheet. Do not combine them in a general request for supplies.
• Storage Sheds
o Non -permanent storage sheds are allowed in this grant. Requests for storage sheds must be on a
separate worksheet. Do not combine them in a general request for supplies.

Combined Supply Categories
You may combine smaller requests for supplies into a single worksheet if the justification and general use are
similar. The following combined supply categories are available to use.
On the cost estimate worksheet, keep the combined items together as a single (e.g,: Supplies -Safety Items)
Then, in the notes section, list each individual item and approximate amount and cost per type of item.
Supplies-ReplacemenVRefurbishment Items,
This category can contain supplies -replacement sails, rudders, masts, paddles, etc. that are being requested to
replace worn out items. It should not include an entire boat, or requests to outfit anew boat. If, for example, you
are requesting new sailboats and as part of that request, you would be purchasing items such as masts, rudder,
sails, that go specifically with that boat or boat fleet purchase, you may combine them in the boat worksheet, as
they will have similar use and justification.
Supplies -Safety items.
This category is for -items such as life iackets, Flares, radios, first aid items, etc. This category is NOT for listing
things like a Safety boat. That item belongs in its own category with its own justification.
Supplies -Miscellaneous Items -
These are supplies that do not tit into the other supply categories. The grouped items should have a similar
justification.
If you are unsure whether to separate or group items, contact DSW staff to get clarity and avoid
possible disqualification.

Instructions
Please respond to the following questions regarding this specific request.
2. Justification for use of: Supplies-ReplacementlRefurbishment Items
2 a, How will this particular request improve your boating safety education program'
The RS Quests and J22 keelboats are the mainstay of the City's boating education program. Most every
class is taught using one of these types of boats. As you can imagine, with all these different students
using the Quests, and summer campers loving the 'flip test" and repeating it countless times, the Quest
sails have broken down and lost their integrity. The J22s were bought. in 2011 and since that time, an
ContracA k C6967310. City of Newport Beach. Aquatic Center Grant i`Y 2022.23, Gale: 0211612023 Page: 27 of 86
Exhibit A
occasional halyard or slay was replaced, but the boats are long overdue for a complete overhaul of the
standing rigging and the lines. The keelboats and coach boats require monthly bottom cleaning in order to
preserve the marine quality bottom paint. Both propeller guards are cracked and need replacing. The
guards are a critical safety item. The bottom line is these replacement items will keep the Quests, J22s
and coach boats functioning safely and allow the City to continue providing boating safety courses.
2 b. What are the detriments to not receiving it?
The other day, a sailor went out in stiff breeze and was unable to furl his Quest jib because it was so
broken down, It created a problem for him as the soft sail got stuck on the furler and was half -way furled,
flapping in the breeze, snaking it difficult for him to sail in the breeze. He had to be rescued, Without
functioning sails, the City would not be able to use the RS Quests — thus losing a key teaching platform for
sailors, particularly beginning sailors, Regarding replacing the standing rigging and lines for the J22, this is
purely an important safety measure. We do not want masts coming down due to fraying stays. The
propeller guards are cracked so they need replacing in order to keep students safe. And without the
monthly keel and coach boat bottom cleaning, the paint deteriorates quickly and risks the integrity of the
hulls.
2 c. Discuss why this particular type or model works best for your program,
RS is the only manufacturer who produces the RS Quest sails, thus we have to "single source" this
purchase, as the sails are not available elsewhere. The standing rigging and halyards will be replaced
according to what is required by the J22 class. The propeller guards are designed for these engines. The
City chose the most cost-effective bottom cleaning business in the bay,
2 d, How long do you expect to use this
equipment?
Given that the current RS Quest sails have provided at
least 7,000 hours of use in seven years, we expect the next
set to last for at least the next six years, as the program will
most likely expand and the sails will be used even more.
The J22s are cared for well, so we expect the rigging and
lines to function for up to another decade. There will be
more use and strain placed upon these boats, though, as
we expand the boating safety program. The propeller
guards lasted seven years, so we hope the new ones will
last as long. And, thanks to the grant, we are currently
hauling our keelboats for new bottom paint, as we speak:
The monthly gentle cleaning will help preserve the bottom
paint for as long as possible,
2 e, If this request is for a replacement item, how The Quest sails are seven years old with 7000 hours of
old is the equipment you want to replace? (if use. The J22 standing rigging and lines are 11 years old,
not applicable, enter NIA.) since the inception of the keelboats. The prop guards are
seven years old. And the keelboat and coach boat bottom
cleaning is an ongoing maintenance expense, so NIA.
2 f. Provide the estimated number of people who
will use the equipment during its estimated
lifetime.
3. Course Titles Using this Equipment
In its first full year with OCC onboard as the City sailing
instructor, we provided sailing lessons to almost 600
students. Without growing the program, the Quest sails
would see at least 4200 sailing students. The coach boat
propeller guards would serve roughly 2,000 people a year.
Over the course of an anticipated seven years, that would
be 14,000 students. The keelboats (bottom paint & rigging)
serve more than 400 students and check-outs a year,
multiplied by a decade, would be at least 4,000 students.

2 a, How will this particular request improve your boating safety education program?
The City relies upon its lifejackets for every aspect of its Sailing and Boating program. Although each PFD
is rinsed after each use and cleaned regularly, the sun and salt water combined with repetitive use by so
many boating students, slowly start to degrade the PFDs. Our boating program would cease to exist
without lifeiackets. We're requesting PFDs, and are aware of the current long lead time to receive ordered
lifejackets. Ours are usable at this point but, by the time a new order of lifejackets arrives (late next year, at
the earliest), they will not be viable.
2 b, What are the detriments to not receiving it?
The detriment to not receiving lifejackets is plain and simple... our program cannot operate, We rely upon
viable, acceptable condition lifejackets for every boating safety class we provide. Lifejackets are required of
all ,ages and experience levels — in all classes and check-outs.
2 C. Discuss why this particular type or model works best for your program.
The City has a handful of this model lifejacket, Old Town Universal Outfitter, and they have outlasted the
last purchase of West Marine PFDs, which sadly have deteriorated quickly. We tried to find an affordable
option with the last purchase of West Marine lifejackets, but they haven't held up to the repetitive use. The
much -older Old Town lifejackets have not broken down at the same rate.

Please respond to the following questions regarding this specific request.
2. Justification for use of, Coach Boat
2 a. How will this particular request improve your boating safety education program?
The City Sailing and Boating program, with OCC onboard as the new sailing instructor, is really in its
infancy. Already though, during this past year, the first full year of instructional operation, the City has
provided sailing classes to almost 600 students. The City has also educated more than 1500 people in
paddling and boating safety basics. The two coach boats that DBW provided are invaluable to the
instruction in all these classes. None of these students would have received instruction without the
coach/safety boats.
The bottom line is that, with the growth of the program, it has become evident that another coach boat is
needed, in order to properly provide safe instruction on the water. It has also become difficult to schedule
younger instructors under 16 because the City needs a 15HP engine for these coaches to use as an
instructing platform. This new boat wouid resolve these growing pains.
2 b. What are the detriments to not receiving it?
Every yacht club and sailing school in the bay struggles to hire qualified instructors, Sometimes the best
(and most available) instructors are the competitive sailors, but they are often under the age of 16, and thus
need a 15HP engine, per the law. Without this additional coaching platform, the City and OCC will not be
able to expand the number of classes it offers, nor increase class size. This is especially evident during the
summer months when the City would like to offer a variety of camps, as well as adult classes, concurrently.
With only two coach boats, this limits what the City can achieve in terms of Gass variety and numbers of
students in addition, OCC wotdd have to change the format of how it teaches classes, especially with
Contract 9 08967310. City of Newport Beach, Aquatic Center Grant FY 2022.23" pate 02J1612023 Page: 32 of 86
Exhibit A
camps that require more instructors than adult classes.
2 c, Discuss why this particular type or model works best for your prograrn.
Ideally, OCC instructors have expressed they would like to find an old Boston Whaler hall and affix a new
15HP engine. The OCC instructors love this old school model as a teaching platform, but unfortunately
Boston Whaler does not make this hull currently. Given the constraints of the grant, with final approvals
typically not happening until May, we cannot search for a quote to present to DBW as of the grant
submission. Thus, we are presenting a quote for another viable option, similar to our current inflatable
RIBs that are working so well, This is a smaller model from AB that would support a smaller 15HP engine —
perfect for a younger instructor to operate. The rubber Hypalon tubes are extremely buoyant and provide a
buffer when students come alongside in their sailboats. From a safety perspective, the center console
works better for instructors than a tiller -operated engine. It is much easier to operate a steering wheel than
relying upon a twist throttle, particularly in a tight or tense situation.
2 d. How long do you expect to use this
equipment?
2 e. If this request is for a replacement item, how
old is the equipment you want to replace? (if
not applicable, enter NIX)
2 f, Provide the estimated number of people who
will use the equipment during its estimated
lifetime.
3. Course Titles Using this Equipment
The City has an exceptional record of taking care of its
equipment with a thorough equipment staffer dedicated to
maintenance of the fleet. The City intends to use this
coach boat for the life of the program.
NIA
As it is a coach and safety boat, only certified instructors
and approved staff will use this vessel, That is probably no
more than 15 different people during the course of a year.
However, the number of students who will benefit, in a
given year, from having this new coach/safety boat, is
probably more than 2,000. Multiply that by an estimated 15
years and you have 30,000 people who will benefit — does
not take into account growth of the program or an even
longer I'rfespan of the vessel.
Please complete the equipment detail and population segment charts below listing not only the piece of
equipment, but all courses that the equipment will be used. (Example., fleet of vessels) DBW wants to know the

don't catch on as quickly as others. Instructors will determine on
the water if students have mastered all the basics of sailing,
watching as students sail on all points of sail, looking for
demonstration of critical knowledge, like wind direction, docking,
rigging, tacking, jibing, boat handling, rules of the road, control of
the boat and steering. If a student does not have the basics down,
the instructor will definitely recommend that they repeat the
Beginner class.

Description: Learn to sail on beautiful Newport Harbor in a class designed for those with little or no
sailing experience. Through classroom instruction and on -the -water practice you will learn the
fundamentals of how to rig and safely sail a small boat. The class is also a great refresher for those
who have not sailed recently. Sailing a 14' dinghy you will learn boating safety, knots, rigging, sailing
theory, boat handling, docking, sail trim and capsize recovery.
Beginning Dinghy Sailing is one of the City's most popular sailing classes. There are people who
walk by the facility every day, saying they always wanted to try sailing, so we suggest they start with
this course. This 4-session beginner class is perfect for those with little to no experience who wish
to learn how to sail on beautiful Newport Harbor. Students learn the fundamentals of how to rig and
de -rig the boat, points of sail, how to tack and jibe, and basic rules of the road. Students start off
each class with a chalk talk going over basic sailing terminology. They learn the parts of the boat,
with particular emphasis on the tiller and the mainsheet. They learn about the points of sail, how to
read the wind, and how to capture the wind efficiently in their sails. During the first class, they are
already sailing our 14' dinghies with a crew by themselves. We find that the Figure 8 drill, set
between two reaching buoys, works well as we emphasize only tacking at first (no jibing) and
reaching tends to be the easiest point of sail. All the safety topics listed above are also covered,
both in the chalk talk, demonstrated while on the water, and finally reviewed in a post -sailing on-
shore debrief. If the student does not master the basics of sailing and feel confident about moving
onto Intermediate Sailing, this class is an ideal class to repeat as instructors can work with each
student individually, building upon information the student has already picked up.

C. If you selected 11 B, 1-4, describe the test The Intermediate Dinghy class appeals to a wide ability of sailor,
or skills evaluation but typically upon successful completion of this class, the sailor will
take our on -water skill evaluation and written test. A good rule of
thumb for our instructors is for them to ask themselves, "Would I
want this person hopping in my personal sailboat by themselves
and going for a sail?" If the answer is no, then the student repeats
the Intermediate class. Clearly, there is a checklist of minimum
standards that an instructor looks for in an intermediate sailor:
complete control of the boat, ability to maneuver and slow down,
docking prowess, rigging and right of way knowledge, ability to sail
on all points of the wind, ability to read the wind from flags and
ripples - to name a few areas.

Who is the target audience and how is boating safety improved by educating them?
If this is an intermediate or advanced course, how does it build on the skills learned in previous, less advanced
courses in the series, and haw does this course improve boating safety?
Description: A great class for students ready to take their dinghy sailing skills to the next level. You
will build on basic skills and work on improving boat handling, refining sail trim, skipper and crew
teamwork, and problem solving while afloat. Sailing a 14' IRS Quest you will practice: rigging,
docking, sail trim, sail controls, crew work and communication, reefing and knots.
As with all our other classes, the topics in A-C are covered. In the Intermediate Class, any students
who've taken our classes, should have a firm grasp on everything on those checklists. In the
intermediate class, it's time to delve into more intricacy. Students are taught more
advanced techniques and maneuvers, learning how to rapidly stop their dinghies by standing up
and backwinding the main; Students are challenged to learn how to sail backward - a favorite skill,
as it rapidly increases a sailor's control over the boat and builds tremendous confidence. Instructors
cover right of way rules in much more depth, particularly for sailors. By now, students are familiar
with port and starboard, but they build upon that by learning that the leeward boat has right of way
over the windward boat, and that overtaking yacht must stay clear, Capsizing becomes more fun
when you're a more confident sailor, and instructors teach students how to do a "dry flip" escaping
getting wet. By now, though, our intermediate sailors have beent taught so well that there is little
chance of an accidental flip. Instructors build upon the student's knowledge of the buoys in the bay
and what purpose they all serve. They look more closely at current within the bay, how to spot
current lines, where it runs stronger and why. Sailors at this level begin to realize how "STEM"
concepts tie into sailing and boating. For example, they begin to understand the math components
of sailing, with geometric angles, and the science of wind, with apparent wind and forecasts.

If this is an intermediate or advanced course, how does it build on the skills learned in previous, less advanced
courses in the series, and how does this course improve boating safety?
Description: This two -session advanced class is ideal for competent dinghy sailors interested in
learning how to fly the spinnaker aboard our 14'RS Quest dinghy. Through classroom instruction
and on -the -water practice you will learn how to prepare, set, trim gybe and drop the spinnaker.
The students who take this class should already be well versed in A— C. Instructors build upon all
aspects of safety by adding the complexities of successfully flying a spinnaker into the sailing
equation. Sailors must have good steering capability, wind knowledge and control of the boat before
attempting to set a spinnaker. This class builds upon all those skills, while emphasizing how critical
safety measures are with the added speed of a third sail. Students hone rapid decision -making
skills, as well as self -rescue techniques.

Cr If you selected 11 B, 1-4, describe the test This class was originally designed as a hybrid, for students with
or skills evaluation some sailing experience who were interested in familiarizing
themselves with the J22 as well as serving as a "rating" class for
sailors who were interested in renting the J122 keelboats at Marina
Park. Instructors found it was too difficult to test some students
while trying to instruct other students, so the ratings test was
broken out into a separate class. The Explore class is now purely
instructional, but also serves as a good one -day trial to see if
sailors are ready to go through the ratings process.

keelboat. You will review rigging, docking, crew work and more as you get ready to take your sailing
to the next level and jump into an Intermediate or Advanced J/22 Keelboat class.
The popularity of the J122 really drives this class, often with a waitlist of students. OCC has kept the

with some sailing knowledge and specific interest in learning more about the J/22. Instructors
provide rigging techniques and explanation of details specific to the J122, like being aware of sailing
by the lee and how to use the backstay for optimal sail trim. Sailors also learn about weather helm,
and how the sails really drive the boat, like rounding down in a breeze by solely using the mainsail,
rather than relying upon the tiller. Sailors in this class learn more about right of way rules and being
aware on the water.

Description; Learn to sail on beautiful Newport Harbor in this 14-hour class designed for those with
little to no sailing experience who want to learn how to sail on a larger more stable keelboat.
Through classroom instruction and on -the -water practice you will learn the fundamentals of how to
rig and safely sail a J122 keelboat. Your instructor will be on -board with you to provide a more
hands-on experience. Sailing a J/22 keelboat you will learn boating safety, knots, rigging, sailing
theory, boat handling, docking, sail trite and crew overboard recovery.
Beginning Keelboat Sailing is a four -session, 14-hour beginning sailing class. instead of learning to
sail in a dinghy, these beginner sailors are learning to sail in the J22. Because these keelboats are
bigger than the dinghies, more students can be placed onboard at a time, so a beginning student
doesn't have to manage everything onboard at once. Students, under the supervision of an onboard
instructor, split duties learning to trim the main separately from steering, and eventually learning to
trim the jib. Coaches provide in-depth chalk talks and dockside instruction long before students
venture onto the water. Sailors learn all the parts of the boat and sails, as well as how to rig and de -
rig properly. Rules of the road as well as all the safety topics in A — C are covered repeatedly.
The goal of this course is to create new, properly educated entry-level sailors, who are provided
a sound base of boater safety information. The hope is that these sailors will return to further
their education and build upon skills.

or skills evaluation students must successfully complete before they're allowed to take
a ratings test to qualify to rent our keelboats. Students from
Intermediate Keelboat will move on to take the on -water skill
evaluation and written test. So instructors, again, are asking
themselves, "Would I let this student use my personal boat to go
sailing alone?" Instructors will be looking for the following skills on
the water: rigging and de -rigging excellence, complete
understanding of each piece of equipment on the boat and its
purpose, knowledge of all the lines on the boat, proper sail trim,
ability to sail in breeze by feathering and appropriate sail trim to
heeling angle, thorough understanding of rules of the road, ability
to perform rescue within three boat lengths and 30 seconds, safe
approach to leaving and returning to the dock, all boating safety
material covered in the class and overall sense of competence and
confidence on the water.

Exhibit A
while learning to work as part of a team on the J122. Sailing a J/22 Keelboat you will build
confidence rigging, docking, and learn sail trim, sail controls, crew work and communication and
anchoring.
Students come to the intermediate Keelboat Sailing class as experienced sailors or they work their
way through the City sailing classes to achieve their goal. This class builds upon all the skills and
knowledge students have learned previously, really honing much more qualified boaters. Instructors
delve much more deeply into specific techniques and philosophies, teaching more advanced
concepts of reading the wind, speed and control of the boat, and overall safe boat handling.

Description: For students with Intermediate sailing skills ready to explore sailing outside the harbor.
This class will focus on building sailing and seamanship skills as you sail down the harbor and enter
the Pacific Ocean. Skills will include advanced sail trim, wing n' wing, the jib using the spinnaker
pole, jury-rigging techniques, running aground, towing, anchoring, tide and currents, aids to
navigation and ocean sailing.
Weather permitting, these students venture into the ocean for lessons on outside
conditions, how to sail in waves, emergency options, communication and safety offshore.
Spinnaker use is focused upon, giving experience flying the chute and foredeck work.
Students are taught how to safely and courteously navigate a bay that might be crowded,
especially when using a spinnaker, The overall goal of this class is to add to the boating
safety skillset of already independent sailors. This boating safety knowledge will translate
into any kind of boat, sail or power.

introduction to sailing or an opportunity for a parent who sails to
share the sport with their children. There is no class that follows
this class and, in fact, many participants repeat this class just
because it is so much fun.

Description: This one -day class is perfect for any adult who wants to explore sailing with their child
in a relaxed and safe environment. Learn the basics of sailing on either a 14'dinghy or a small
keelboat, accompanied by an; instructor who will guide you through safe sailing on Newport Harbor.
Parent & Me continues to be one of the City's most popular sailing classes. Although the students in
this class do not proceed on to another class, it is a great class for conveying boating safety
information, It is an introductory class, and an opportunity for parents to learn to sail with their
children or to share their love of the sport with their kids. A comprehensive on -shore chalk talk gives
students the skills to get in a dinghy on their own for the first time, in many cases, with instructors in
coach boats, providing constant communication about boating safety tips. Students do the work on
their own in the boat. They are tasked with driving and working the sheets, learning the entire time
about sailing, the bay, our environment, our sea creatures, our birds, right of way, other boats,
steering, and understanding the overall dynamics of sailing. And all of the teaching is disguised by
the fun of being on the water! The instructors teach to the level of the children, so that they can
understand, but provide more advanced information to the parents, so that they leave the class
having learned a lot as well. This class also sometimes incorporates paddling, as three hours is a
long time for children to concentrate. Hopping on to paddle equipment is fun and allows a change of
pace, while still teaching about boating safety, Students are given the opportunity to try kayaking
and/or Stand Up paddling. They are given comprehensive information on proper technique and
paddle grip, proper stance or seating, balance, wind and current, as well as boating safety tips.

C If you selected 11 B, 1-4, describe the test Our youth camps are our most popular class, with hundreds of
or skills evaluation children registering during the summer. These camps run five days
a week, and children are taught all the basics of boating safety.
They know that they don't go on the water or even on the docks
without wearing a properly fitted lifejacket. It becomes second
nature, and they leave class knowing that's the way it's supposed
to be for everyone. They become good influencers for adults.
While there has been no official evaluation in this class, the
campers do get a certificate of completion at the end of camp,
signed by the instructors. Clearly the instructors are constantly
assessing their campers' ability in order to best group them in the
types of activities, based on their ability.

Description: This week-long summer camp is the perfect introduction for any children looking
to learn how to sail in beautiful Newport Harbor. Campers will learn to sail in a variety of
different sailboats, including 8' Sabots, 14' IRS Quests, and 22' J22s. Instructors will work with
campers to develop safe sailing skills and confidence, with the ultimate goal to have campers
sailing comfortably on their own. Campers will also explore Newport Harbor in kayaks and stand-
up paddleboards, weather permitting.
These camps are very popular during summer, as well as our after -school sailing classes (6-7 week
sessions, by quarter) throughout the year. The summer camps are week-long camps, morning
or afternoon, with a team of instructors who teach boating safety through fun to 6-16-year-
olds. Campers are taught according to their individual level of boating knowledge - from the
beginning to the more advanced, returning camper. Campers learn sailing fundamentals, boating
safety and how to paddleboard and kayak safely. Most importantly, students are taught respect for
the water and other boaters, the basics of boating safety, how to navigate Newport Harbor, wind
and current directions, rules of the road, and the importance of lifejackets. The City camps have
coached students from all over the world, not just locals, although we have plenty of those. Students
come from Saudi Arabia, China, Spain, France - and many of them return from year to year.
We let our campers come up with their list of rules at the beginning of camp and, invariably, they
all decide upon "safety" as the number one rule, closely followed by "fun." Under safety, the
children come up with wearing lifejackets, listening to instructors, respecting the environment
including the sea creatures, always being aware of surrounding boats, keeping clear of other boats
but waving in a friendly manner, being aware of weather and current conditions, and always wearing
proper sailing gear.
Games are played that teach water and boating safety. Our swim assessment is not called that
but, instead, we create a relay race, so that kids on their first day of class aren't terrified of a
swim assessment. Instead, we have a fun swim relay race, in lifejackets of course, out to instructors
who are standing by in kayaks. Because it's a game, the students don't realize they're being
assessed for their individual water safety, but instructors are watching closely and quickly determine
which students might not be equally as comfortable or capable in the water. We don't push any
campers who are timid, but let them ease into the water at their own speed.
Later in the camp, one of the most popular learning exercises is the flip test. We have a safety
boat standing by, only place a couple of children at a time in a Quest, position the Quest in the lee
of a remote area away from traffic, and slowly the instructor rolls the boat over. Children are seated
on the leeward side and gently "slip" into the water, while the coach climbs over the dry side to
the centerboard and rights the boat. This exercise is the most popular thing by the end of camp,
with children, sometimes the most timid, knowing precisely what to do in the event a sailboat
capsizes.
In the first few days of camp, we do not automatically put children in sabots alone without
an instructor. Our philosophy is that it can be overwhelming, even for adults, to learn alone, let alone
a child. We believe that's why so many children wind up leaving sailing - because of frustration
Contract # C8967310, City of Newport Beach, Aquatic Center Grant FY 2022-23. Date: 02/16/2023 Page: 57 of 86
Exhibit A
and fear, They're shoved off the dock, alone and without the proper knowledge, get stuck in irons,
get hit in the head with the boom, and then never want to venture out again. So, our students learn
to sail in a boat with an instructor. As they become comfortable and qualified, they are rewarded
with getting to sail in a sabot alone - which becomes a huge motivator to learning and is viewed as
the ultimate reward in camp. And by planting that desire in the children to sail independently, we
have succeeded in creating sailors who have been trained in all aspects of boating and who
will continue their adventure (and positively influence others) on the water.

12. Describe how this specific course advances boating safety education. In your answer, discuss course
objectives, examples of how the items checked in 9 A-C are integrated into the course, and the best takeaways
for students that support improvements to boating safety.
Who is the target audience and how is boating safety improved by educating them?
If this is an intermediate or advanced course, how does it build on the skills learned in previous, less advanced
courses in the series, and how does this course improve boating safety?
Because Marina Park is a public facility and attracts tens of thousands of customers every
year, Sailing and Boating has a phenomenal opportunity to reach "non boaters" with a boating
safety message. Sailing and Boating offers paddle rentals for drop -in customers, no experience
necessary. While some customers plan to come to Marina Park to paddle, for others the decision is
spur of the moment. For many customers, this is their first paddling experience and with no other
boating experience. This introduction is the ideal time for City staff to provide boating safety
information, as well as to plant the seed for a love of future boating.
For every person who rents our single and double kayaks or a stand-up paddleboard, City
staff provides a comprehensive boating safety orientation that starts immediately upon the
customer's arrival, with a quiet assessment of the customer and their abilities. The City requires that
each paddler be at least six years of age and be a competent swimmer. It's surprising that there
are people who do not understand the importance of being able to swim while on the water.
Although California law requires the PFD to be on the equipment (for adults), the City requires every
paddler to wear a PFD.
Our staff selects an appropriate PFD for each customer and supervises each customer as
they secure the PFD to ensure that they are snugly fit. The staff explains to each customer that
the lifejacket needs to fit securely, or it will float over their head if they wind up in the water. We
also explain that, if we should need to pull them from the water, we would grab the shoulder handles
and lift. If the jacket is not snug, we would pull the lifejacket right off them and they would remain in
the water.
The prevailing breeze is a Southwest at Marina Park. Our bigger breeze is typically a Westerly
and lighter breeze, a Southerly. We teach each paddler how to read the wind and why it's critical to
the safety of their paddling experience. We ask that each paddler paddles upwind first, so they
can determine if they're able to paddle against the wind. We make sure the customer knows
that paddling downwind is a breeze, so to speak. If there is a wind shift or if the wind is forecast to
build, we let the customer know, and we give them tips for staying out of the breeze or modified
paddling techniques, if the wind becomes a factor. We'll also cease paddling if the wind picks up
past the point of a comfortable paddle. Because of these precautions, we always have our paddlers
return, having had an enjoyable experience.
Staff provides paddlers with local knowledge, including traffic patterns, how to stay out of
traffic (collision avoidance), wildlife and beaches to look for, and suggestions for routes to take
depending on the day's weather, wind, tide and traffic conditions. Staff requests a return time from
customers, and we track departure and return times, as well as the party's specific information, as
part of the float plan. We know specifically when a paddler is due back, so we anticipate their arrival.
Once a customer is fitted in a lifejacket, staff will then fit the customer with a paddle. For the
SUP customer, we measure height, comfortable fit, and note that the paddles are carbon fiber,
requesting that they do not touch paddles to the cement, nor lay them down to be stepped on. Staff
Contract k C8967310, City of Newport Beach, Aquatic Center Grant FY 2022-23, Date: 02/16/2023 Page: 60 or 86
Exhibit A
reviews proper paddling grip and technique, with specific strokes to maneuver. Along with
demonstrating proper stance or positioning on the equipment, staff reviews balance, proper weight
distribution, boarding and disembarking. We review how to reboard, should they fall out of or off the
equipment, as well as what to do it, for some reason, they are unable to reboard. We instruct
paddlers to stay with their equipment, swim if back to the beach or a dock, if they can't reboard, We
suggest waving a paddle to notify another boater in the case they need assistance. All our
lifejackets have whistles attached for an emergency.
With any customers new to paddling, staff will hold on to the equipment while they practice
their strokes. Once a customer has demonstrated proficiency, we'll let go of the piece of equipment
and allow them to paddle within the swim line, until they show they have mastered directional
paddling. Providing this comprehensive boating safety information is a critical operational procedure
for any paddling customer. It allows the City to reach a broad audience of new boaters with a
comprehensive boating safety message.

12. Describe how this specific course advances boating safety education. In your answer, discuss course

Who is the target audience and how is boating safety improved by educating them?
If this is an intermediate or advanced course, how does it build on the skills learned in previous, less advanced
courses in the series, and how does this course improve boating safety?
During this past year at Marina Park, we have found the private lesson to be very popular. We offer
three-hour privates lessons for up to two -people at $250, with each additional student paying $25.
The lessons are offered in the J22 or in the RS Quest. Sometimes the instructor is on board with the
student, and at other times, the instructor coaches from a coach boat. No sailing experience is
necessary, and we welcome all levels of ability and ages. Students vary from one person interested
in finessing a particular skill to a family with two children just wanting to experience time on the
Ovate r.
All safe boating topics in A — C are addressed during the class. One-on-one instruction is invaluable,
as a student can progress quickly. Sometimes, the sensory input from a sailing class can be
overwhelming for a student. You're typically put in a boat by yourself, the sails are lulling, the coach
is shouting at you from another boat and you're feeling out of control. Instead, in a private lesson,
that atmosphere is calmed down, allowing the brain to take in more information, as the student is no
longer stressed by these environmental and teaching factors.
The beauty of the private lesson is it allows an individual to schedule a class, virtually based on their
own convenience, rather than having to wait for a regularly scheduled class. As instructors are
available, these private lessons are scheduled. The City plans to continue with them and hopefully
increase their numbers.

EXHIBIT E
BidlProposal Attachment regarding the Darfur Contracting Act of 2008
Effective January 1, 2009, all invitations for Bids (IFB) or Requests for Proposals (RFP) for goods or
services must address the requirements of the Darfur Contracting Act of 2008 (Act). (Public Contract
Code sections 10475, et seq.; Stats. 2008, Ch. 272). The Act was passed by the California
Legislature and signed into law by the Governor to preclude State agencies generally from contracting
with "scrutinized" companies that do business in the African nation of Sudan (of which the Darfur
region is a part), for the reasons described in Public Contract Code section 10475.
A scrutinized company is a company doing business in Sudan as defined in Public Contract Code
section 10476. Scrutinized companies are ineligible to, and cannot, bid on or submit a proposal for a
contract with a State agency for goods or services. (Public Contract Code section 10477(a)).
Therefore, Public Contract Code section 10478 (a) requires a company that currently has (or within
the previous three years has had) business activities or other operations outside of the United States
to certify that it is not a "scrutinized" company when it submits a bid or proposal to a State agency.
(See # 1 on the sample Attachment).
A scrutinized company may still, however, submit a bid or proposal for a contract with a State agency
for goods or services if the company first obtains permission from the Department of General Services
(DGS) according to the criteria set forth in Public Contract Code section 10477(b). (See # 2 on the
sample Attachment).
The following sample Attachment may be included in an IFB or RFP to satisfy the Act's certification
requirements of bidders and proposers.
Pursuant to Public Contract Code section 10478, if a bidder or proposer currently or within the
previous three years has had business activities or other operations outside of the United States, it
must certify that it is not a "scrutinized" company as defined_in Public Contract Code section 10476.
Therefore, to be eligible to submit a bid or proposal, please complete only one of the following
three paragraphs (via initials for Paragraph # 1 or Paragraph # 2, or via initials and certification
for Paragraph # 3):
We do not currently have, or we have not had within the previous three years, business
activities or other operations outside of the United States. .
OR
We are a scrutinized company as defined in Public Contract Code section 10476, but we
have received written permission from the Department of General Services (DGS) to submit
a bid or proposal pursuant to Public Contract Code section 10477(b). A copy of the written
permission from DGS is included with our bid or proposal.
