SOLING GUIDE ~977

10TH ANNIV ERSARY YEAR OF THE INTERNATIONAL SOLING

Dear Soling Sailor,

When the plans that were developed in the annual meeting in London can be realised, this 8 th edi­ tion of our annual Soling Guide will be the last on in its present form. In 1978 we hope to be able to publish for the first time a Soling Book, containing all information and articles about our class of more permanent interest, that can serve as a handbook for all yachtmen interested in our Class for a period of 3 to 4 years. At the same time, we propose to publish a supplement con taining all information that is subject to annual revision and which will be published and distributed every year together with the Spring Issue of Soling .

When the life-time of a successful one-design is es timated to be a possible 30 to 35 years the 10th anniversary may be considered to mark the end of the adolescence-period.

In this period the fine original design of Jan L inge was further developed- under a strict control to maintain the one-design character - to the perfect three men keelboat that it is to-day: perfect for racing at the top-level of yachting, at the same time suitable for local racing on club-level, also very good to be used for training in sailing schools and by many yachtsmen accepted and used for day-touring on all kinds of navigable waters!

For the first as well for the last mentioned purpose it has moreover the important advantage that it can be trailed easily with a normal family-car. All these favourable properties have no doubt contributed to the unanimous vote of the IYRU Permanent Committee to adopt our Class again as one of the six Olympic classes in 1980. This is providing a sound basis for the expectation that such a decision can be repeated many more times I

In the period that we have now begun your Committee will not support any drastic technical deve­ lopments that will endanger the one-design concept and the acceptance of which has created con­ siderable problems in other classes. We shall concentrate our endeavours on further improvements and strengthening of our Class-or­ ganization because we believe that many more yachtsmen in all yachting countries around the world could enjoy the thrill of sailing a Soling and can find new friendships in the friendly atmos­ phere of our Class Association.

The Scandinavian word: "Sol" is in English: was obvious that the type wo uld give a lot more of "Sun", and they wished the Soling "a place in t he su n". racing fun to more people. They started the Soling sign as a su nrise- li ke: In 1962 the IYRU declared an opening for a new inter­ national three-man-keelboat. After this meeting Jan Linge completed 'the design and it was shown at the ~~~'~ ~ 1963 IYR U-meeting as an example of what sort of he taught one should aim at. The majority, however, but at the end the horizon was cut away, and now a ll wanted to keep the limits open for a larger boat. clearly can see t he " 0 " and the two " L"s of the sign.

First Five GRP-8olings This prototype was tested and evaluated by Linge and Finn Ferner (now a Life Member of the ISA) during 1964. A lot of experiments with variations to sailplan, rudder and keelposit io n were carried out before t hey were satisfied and sure that the project was good and worth the further investments for production tooling. Moulds were made in 1965 and the first five GRP boats were manufactured for the 1966 season.

A Small, Cheap Boat with Lots of Racing Fun IYRU had by that time sent out inv itations for the internat ional three-man-keelboat trial races which were going to take place at the same autumn. The Sol ing was entered although she could have no chance of beating the much larger boats. Generally she was about 3 feet shorter, carried about 20% less sailarea and her total displacement was less than the weight of t he ballast-keel of the other competitors, but Linge wanted to prove his point: "One could have just as much raci ng fun in a smaller and cheaper boat". The trial races at Kiel were held in general heavy weather conditions, and to everybody's surprise Soling was steadily hanging on to windward, and was even faster than any of the others down-wind !

Juniorboat, a 15 square-meter keelboat, a very popular training boat at the time he started sailing at 12 years of age. A year later he was number 7 in this class in a Natio­ nal regatta with participants from the whole country. Very soon t he OK-Dinghy became his favourite, and be­ fore leaving the Cadet Training School he managed to win his first National Championship in this class. This first Champion-title was repeated in several classes: Trapeze-Dinghy, Dragon, H-Yacht, Knarr, Soling, IF­ Yacht (an internatonal Folkboat), Spcekhugger. Two of these tit les he won this year after his return from King­ ston.

Important Game of Trimming . Paul Richard likes very much to race different classes; 0 his opinion is that changing class pushes one never to forget the important game of trimming the boat before each race. Going further in his performances, three times he has been Scandinavian Champion in two different classes: H-Yacht and Dragon. He is always well up and after six races in the Dragon class at Kiel-week (June 1972) he finished every race in the first three places. All in Den­ mark thought we had a fairly good card in hand as our representative for the Olympics that year.

Success in the Soling Class. If we look at his helming in the Soling Class since the Olympics at Kiel no one has been faster on average: He has been runner up for the Worlds 1973 (Ouiberon, France), the Europeans 1974 (Glasgow), and again at Genova 1976, and he was fourth at the Worlds 1975 (Chicago). Still he is a member of the Hvidovre Sejlklub and now also of Sejl Club and the Royal Danish Yacht Close running under spinnaker on . The Danish Club - the latter honoured him after the Gold Medal Soling leading the Sovjet entry: SR-16, and a Canadian auxiliary with the " Honoris Causa". (See Soling Sailing, Autumn vessel very close with the fender out ! 1976). (Bent K. Rasmussen).

11 Paul ill ustrates t hi s by explaining that in trimming-the rig from light breezes to strong winds they could do the change by four turns on the turnbuckles in stead of the normall y twelve turns, and even in a very hard blow the leeward shrouds would stand stiff.

A Soling team competed in December at Hawaii and we hope to have some more international competit ion at the Pacific Coast this year. A new fleet at Nagoya (central Japan) is formed . Now we have three fleets of Solings with very good local and national competition and the interest of the Soling Class in Japan is still increasing. Fukuo Akiyama Japan Soling Association

BRITISH APPLICATION FOR BUILDING SOLINGS The Soling Class in the United Kingdom in 1976 was very much concerned - perhaps a little too much con­ cerned - with preparation and selection for the Olympic Games. A strong squad of 10 boats in all attended the training organized by the Olympic Coach in January - February - March and the Class was well represented at "Under­ berg Cup", Denmark, Hyeres, France and European "Okutan" (J-9} Yasnie Ishii.

13 WOMEN CAN MASTER SOLINGS

The Last Word on Soling Sailing By Julia W. Rattray

The Soling is commonly considered to be a man's boat, ditions, the weight and strength of the man are necessary needing a heavy and brawny crew. Soling sailing can be and important.

A BR IEF HISTORY OF SOLINGS IN BERMUDA In January 1968 a group met at the Royal Bermuda Yacht Club for the purpose of considering the formation of a Soling class in Bermuda. A steering committee con· sist ing of Ward Young, Charles Kempe and Warren Brown further investigated the potential of Sol ings in Bermuda. In December 1968 as a result of the sterring -I committee and the I. Y.R .U. decision to include Solings - in the 1972 Olympics, fourteen Solings were purchased by Bermudian sailors. Solings have participated in several race weeks and Ber· muda has been represented in the 1972 and 1976 Olym­ pics. In the last t wo years most of the boats have changed hands and many of t he skippers are quite young, which makes the future of Sol ings in Bermuda look brighter than it has in recent years.

14 YACHTING MAGAZINES ALL OVER THE WORLD 1\ MAGAZINES

Very often Soling organisers or yachtsmeQ need to know names and addresses of the Yachting Magazines in other countries. It is very practical when invitations for regattas, results, reports, etc. are to be circulated. The !SA-office wrote December 1976 all our contacts in the nearly fifty affiliated countries. Many NSAs have corrected the list of last year, and thanks to this we are able to print a more complete liSt of Magazines in nearly all the countries with Soling fleets. We very well know that this list cannot be exact. Therefore, please continue to send us names and addresses of Maga­ zines not listed.

1. OBJECT OF THE CLASS RULES This is a One-Design Class. These rules and the official plans are intended to ensure that boats of this Class are as nearly alike as possible as regards shape and weight of hull and decking, shape and weight of keel, shape of rudder, shape and area of and in some other items which affect performance. All boats shall be built in accordance with the plans, with the exception of spars, standing and running rigging, sheeting arrangements, rudder stock with bearings, tiller and tiller extension, lifting eyes, cleats and fairleads. These items, and their fittings need not comply with the official plans but shall, in some cases, be controlled in other ways by the following rules. 2. PROTECTION OF ONE-DESIGN 2.1 The administering authority for the Class shall be the I.Y.R.U. Which shall co-operate with the International Soling Association (I.S.A.) in all matters regarding these rules. The Building Fee shall be U.S. $150 or equivalent payable to I.Y.R.U. Holdings Ltd., Victoria Way, Woking, Surrey GU21 1EQ, England, when hull moulding commences, see Rule 3.5. This fee shall incorporate the Designer's fee of 80 per cent, the International Soling Association's Administration fee of 10 per cent and the International Yacht Racing Union's fee of 10 per cent. The Building Fee shall be divided on the above basis and shall be reviewed and, if necessary, revised by the t.Y.R.U. on the recommendation of the International Soling Association every two years commencing the 1st January 1972. 2.2 Construction shall be of glass reinforced plastics (GAP) and shall be in accordance with the relevant general arrangement and construction plans and specifications. The use of fibres other than glass is prohibited in the construction of the hull, deck or rudder. The builder shall construct the hull by installing the backbone, stringers, bulkheacft and floor before it leaves the mould. The hull and the deck shall be assembled with the deck in the approved mould or in a jig approved by a Measurer appointed by the National Authority. • In either case the necessary support shall be given so that the sheerline is as shown on the plans. Such support shall be approved by a Measurer approved by the National Authority. • 2.3 Production moulds for hull, backbone, deck and rudder shall be made from GAP plugs obtained from the one current official GAP master mould. The casting pattern for the fin keel shall be of aluminium cast from the one current official master pattern. The I.Y.R.U. Chief Measurer shall measure and issue a certificate giving the dimensions of each plug, keel pattern and rudder mould. Such dimensions shall be within a tolerance of half the permitted building tolerances. The shape and form of the patterns. plugs and moulds shall not be amended or altered unlei!S specifically authorised by the I.Y.R.U. The primary control shall be by means of a single uniform source of plugs and moulds. 2.4 Construction shall be checked by measurement and official templates in accordance with the official measurement diagram. Tolerances are given to allow minor building errors and distortion through age, but intentional variation• within these tolerances shall be prohibited. The boat, before leaving the builder's premises, shall be measured by a measurer appointed by the National Authority• applying official templates. 2.5 If it is considered that there has been any attempt to depart from the design or these rules in any particulars, it shall be reported to the National Authority", which shall withhold the certificate of measurement pending an exami· nation of the case. The National Authority• may grant a certificate if approval is obtained from the t.Y.R.U. in consultation with the I.S.A. 2.6 Builders shall be licensed by I.Y.R.U. Holdings Ltd., and shall only obtain GAP plugs and/or production moulds and templatelf from suppliers approved by the I.Y.R.U. Licences shall be issued after consultation with the I.S.A. 3.

The interest is considerable but we have difficulties in importing Solings. At Athens our group look forward to meet Soling friends from the Europeans at Geneva last year. Also we hope to organize an international event in Juga· slavia in the near future.

MANY NEW SO LING MEMB ERS IN USA The U.S. Soling Association had a good year in 1976, better than it has had for some time. Ne ither the na· tion's 200th birthday nor the fact that 1976 was an Olympic year had much to do with this success. The great surge of new boats in the first years of the class, which produced over 600 U.S. Solings at the end of 1972, had lost momentum. The USSA officers decided that momentum had to be regained and took major steps aimed primarily at insuring the health of local fleets. Wonderful sailing at Bermuda.

INT ENSIVE INTERNATIONAL RACING IN SWEDEN Still - in the beginning of March - we have a lot of ice and snow up here in Sweden, but soon the spring will take over and we will start to race again. This season, and I think this goes for the coming 3 years too, our Swedish Soling-races will be of more interest than normal for foreign Soling teams. After World Championship at Hanko, we hope you will take the opportunity to participate in our Open Swedish Inter­ national Championship which will be held at Sandhamn July 27-30. At the same place and on the same courses where the Worlds 1979 will be raced. Furthermore, our famous yachting center Sandhamn is about the only place which has the same water· and weather conditions as Tall in. Do I need to stress it more ?

SWITZERLAND, IN THE CENTE R OF EUROPE ORGANIZES MANY SOLING EVENTS Nearly a decade ago, the first - Norwegian built - So­ lings appeared on Lake Geneva (Site of the 1976 Euro­ pean Championship) and on Lake of Zurich ... Since then, the number of Swiss Solings has grown steadily, to become the second biggest fleet in the world with (at the time of the writing of this article) sail number Z 222 issued by the Swiss Soling Association. It may seem strange to some of you, that a small country, landlocked, far away from the sea and famous mainly for its watches, its cheese, its jodling and its Al­ pine Ski Team should have such a great fleet, second only to the U.S .... But we have lakes. Plenty of them, and most offer very pleasant sailing conditions with generally local thermal winds, relatively smooth water and ... no currents. And, after all, the Med isn't all that far away, about eight hours driving, trailing the Soling.

Our close association with the Soling class over the past years has enabled Melges Sails to be the leader in sail design changes as well as in the technological as­ pects of deck layout and boat tuning. This closeness has kept us well aware of the fact that we must keep im­ proving upon the designs we already have and at the same time develop specialty sails to satisfy the most competitive sailors. In preparation for the past Olympic year we also knew that we would have to meet the challenge of some of the largest sailmakers in the world. One look at the results and it can be proven that we did just that. At the U.S. Olympic trials our sails not only won, but also placed two others in the top six. A far more impressive statistic is the fifteen out of twenty-four competitors at the Olympics in Kingston that used full or partial suits of Melges sails. This also includes anum­ ber of our "super fast" reaching and running spinnakers. Out of those fifteen, seven placed in the top ten, in­ cluding the prestigous silver medal. As the developers of the two mainsail, two jib con­ cept we feel that in 1977 we can provide you with a performance overlap which makes it difficult to make the wrong choice.

FOR THE OLYMPICS Here is an extract of the most important ideas of Hans Fogh and AT·TALLIN Buddy Melges. These thoughts of the experts are not only useful for Soling sailors preparing Olympic racing, but for all intending to race the Soling.

The rainy southerly had dropped considerable from its early-morning freshness, so I re­ commended the full sail. We rigged and hoisted it and the full jib, and beat out of the harbor onto Long Is­ land Sound in about ten knots of breeze. Halfway to the starting line, we realized that we had made a mistake. The wind had increased quickly to about 15 knots, so we lowered the full main and put on the flat one. It was blowing a healthy 20 by the start at 1130. A few minutes later, as the 20-boat fleet was one­ third of the way up the first beat, the breeze strengthened radically, and by the time we reached the weather mark we were wondering whether we should set a spinnaker on the first reach. We were racing, so we put up the tiny "storm" chute and took off on a wild , planning reach. From time to time, one of the increasingly large waves got under the stern and wiped us up to a broach.

John Rousmaniere The Toughest One Design in Force 8 Gale A dozen or so boats finished the race, leaving behind three broken masts. Most of the finishers and some of the DN F's had spars badly bent by the strains of running square before a Force 8 gale. The Soling is among the very toughest of one-design classes but it has one weak­ ness. The lower and upper shrouds are both athwart­ ships of the mast, so there is no fore-and-aft support of the lower part of the spar. In the constant pumping that comes when running in heavy seas, a mast - especially one with the permanent backstay and the on hard -can go out of column quite easily.

Easing Vang and Backstay Bob Bavier, who was racing his Soling that day, eased the vang off all the way and the backstay part of the way as he started the run, but even his mast was bent. The storm was at its peak between 1300 -just past high tide - and 1500, when the wind began to veer. A southerly wind blows directly into Noroton, and a sou­ therly gale like t his - combined with spring high water, extremely rough seas and late-season wear-and-tear on mooring lines - left the beaches littered with cruising "Tite Sa lng Silk Scarf.
