Maybe the yawl was late for her start, but probably the picture just shows how in a light breeze the lighter, shorter racing one-designs can sail faster than cruising boats. The Internationals, who started after the cruising boats, but before the Luders, can be seen about three-quarters of a mile ahead against the shore of Cranberry Island.

Our season is short and we have a busy schedule that during a normal summer keeps our volunteers and staff busy. In addition to our traditional activities, we hosted the International One-Design World Championship in late July, at the height of our season. Hosting a regatta of this magnitude, 20 crews from around the world totaling more than 100 sailors and their families, took an extraordinary amount of time and energy from many of our members. I am pleased to report that the regatta was successful both on and off the water. During the event the Fleet was able to stay open and available to our membership for normal use. Also, our able staff led by General Manager, Greg Wilkinson was able to stay focused to insure that all of our regular racing, sailing instruction and other services were not interrupted during the worlds and remained at an incredibly high level all summer. We chose to host the worlds during the summer months SO that the visiting competitors would have the opportunity to experience Mt Desert as we do. The Executive Committee also felt that the energy provided by this caliber regatta would be a great experience for the general membership but more importantly our junior sailors. The regatta offered a unique opportunity for all of us to participate, at some level, in the excitement of a World Championship. The competitors were tested, having to cope and adapt to a full range of conditions. The Race Committee, headed by Dick Homer, with Greg Wilkinson acting as Principal Race Officer was able to get all 7 championship races off on schedule. The high winds experienced during the early part of the week posed a real challenge for the IOD technical committee. It was truly a heroic effort to keep 20 IOD's on the line in top 5 racing condition. There are too many volunteers to thank in this report. Suffice to say that the regatta would not have been successful had it not been for the countless hours these folks put into the event or the generosity of our membership to open our facility and their homes to the competitors. Thanks go to all of you. During the other seven weeks of 2003 the Fleet had a busy schedule and there is much to report on the fun we all had racing or just enjoying being on the water with our family and friends. This was the first year in which Greg was a full time employee, working on our behalf for 12 months. Greg hired a great staff and together they were able to run every series race and event on our calendar. The quality of race management that the members, IOD competitors, and participants in the August Cruise experienced was truly world class. As one of the IOD skippers noted: "In 7 championship races I was not able to detect a favored end of the starting line, even on the windiest starts." As I noted at the Annual Meeting, the last piece of business completed by Commodore J.T. Roberts, in September 2002, was the nomination and election of an independent Board of Directors for the Northeast Harbor Sailing School. The sailing school is now a fully independent entity with a broad representation from the Mt. Desert Community. Greg, as Director of the Sailing School, hired an exceptional group of instructors. The senior instructors were all either recent college graduates or seniors, involved in nationally ranked collegiate sailing programs. The enrollment in the sailing school was up this year compared to last season. More importantly there were 10 island residents enrolled and two scholarships were provided. Some of the highlights of the past season include: 83 races during our 50 day season including the IOD Worlds Barton Eddison Race included juniors from other programs on the island The Fleet provided race management for the last 3 days of Down East Race Week ( our traditional August Cruise) 6 Launch service 7 days per week on a full schedule Fleet office open 6 days per week Shearwater fixed and refit Fleet sailors win team race against Kollegewidgwok YC (Blue Hill) Elizabeth Madeira Brauer (age 11) wins the Hayward Cup 60 years after her Great Great Aunt Elizabeth Madeira won it in 1943. Our juniors participate in the Maine Junior Olympics and New England Optimist Championship Updated web site with current racing results As you can see, the 2003 season was busy and successful and I hope fun for all. It was a great honor for me to serve as your Commodore this past year. I want to take this opportunity to thank our staff, the members of the Executive Committee, the Directors of the Sailing School, and all the other volunteers for their support and commitment to excellence. I am looking forward to the 2004 season. I suspect that it will be somewhat quieter than the one just past but not without its own set of challenges. Fair sailing, Henry Brauer Commodore 7 OFFICERS and COMMITTEE CHAIRS for 2002-2003 (Elected August 31, 2003 to serve one year commencing October 1, 2002) OFFICERS Commodore Henry G.

BOX 543 ELLSWORTH, MAINE 04605 207-667-5529 1-800-499-9108 FAX: 207-667-9915 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT December 10, 2003 To the Executive Committee of The Northeast Harbor Fleet Northeast Harbor, Maine We have audited the accompanying statement of financial position of the Northeast Harbor Fleet as of September 30, 2003 and 2002, and the related statements of activities and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Northeast Harbor Fleet as of September 30, 2003 and 2002, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The summer of 2003 was one of those years. The last week in July is normally known as "turnover" week, as July gives way to the August rush. This summer our little island turned itself over to sailors from all over the world. A weeklong racing event showed off the islands greatest attributes: great weather, vistas, skilled sailors, and the most beautiful IOD fleet in the world. The NEH IOD class and NEH Fleet hosted sailors from Norway, Scotland, Bermuda, San Francisco, Fisher's Island, Nantucket, and Marblehead. David Rockefeller Jr., John C. Henry, Jock Crothers, and Sydney Roberts Rockefeller represented our local fleet based on their racing results in 2002. The week began with stormy weather as the Organizing committee worked feverishly to prepare 23 boats, finalize housing, and put the final touches on the week's entertainment schedule. As the competitors began to arrive a cold front moved in from the Northwest, sending fog and rain off the coast. A practice race allowed the sailors to adjust to their boats and new surroundings. The race started just as the clouds broke and the wind freshened. Our own John C. Henry led at the top mark and never looked back. It appeared that the local sailors would have the upper hand in the fluky westerly breeze. The 1st championship race started with a bang as the wind picked up and began to blow hard out of the west. This set the stage for blustery weather the remainder of the week. Bermudian and defending Champion, Eugene "Penny" Simmons returned to form and easily won in the 20-25 knot breeze. The week continued on with the steady breeze that felt more like September than July. The 25+ knot puffs seriously tested the 60-year-old fleet. The teams with the most experience in those conditions ended up near the top of the leader board by weeks end. Fisher's Island skipper Charlie Van Voorhis and his crew battled to the top to win their 1st IOD Championship. Penny Simmons needed a strong finish in the last race to secure 2nd overall with 4 time Champ, Bill Widnall of Marblehead placing 3rd. Sailing Worlds' editor, John Burnham and former Fleet Commodore David Rockefeller Jr. rounded out the top five. Sailing wasn't the only event during the week as many Fleet members opened their homes to host various parties. Dinner and cocktail parties dotted the shores of North- east, Southwest, and Seal Harbor allowing the international sailors to see another side of our little Island. The fun filled week ended with a lively awards banquet at the Asticou Inn. The IOD World Championship Organizing committee would like to thank the Fleet staff, members and race committee for helping to put on a great event. We couldn't have done it without you!

The race is a handicap event in which all of the Fleet's traditional classes of keel boats are eligible to participate: International One Design, J-24, Luders-16, A-boat, Mercury, and Bullseye (wooden and fiberglass). The race course is a measured distance which all classes sail. The start is staggered such that the smaller boats start first, and the larger boats start last. The first boat to cross the finish line wins. 2003 Davenport Hayward Cup Race Winner @@@@ Photo by Harriet Madeira Commodore Henry Brauer presents the Hayward Cup for 2003 to his daughter, Elizabeth "Biz" Brauer.

Brauer Mercury 49 Commodore William Barton Eddison Trophy W. Barton Eddison was the third Commodore of the Northeast Harbor Fleet, serving in that capacity from 1928-1935. He is generally regarded as the individual who introduced the Norwegian-designed International One Design (IOD) class to the Northeast Harbor Fleet. Each year the Fleet sponsors a race in his memory intended to introduce junior sailors to the IOD class. Effort is made to structure the race as a traditional point-to-point event, versus the more contemporary windward/ leeward, "around the buoys" style event. IOD owners, or their representa- tive, are aboard their boats during the race, but the juniors are encouraged to execute the sail trimming, and are frequently encouraged to steer. Beginning in 2002, junior sailors who are enrolled in other area sailing programs were invited to participate in the even. With this expanded pool of junior sailors, the format was further modified to mix juniors from different programs into the crews of each boat to further enrich the social aspect of the event. The Commodore William Barton Eddison Trophy was given in 1983 by his children in memory of Commodore, W. Barton Eddison. 2003 W.
