  • Mast History.Pub
    M.A.S.T. A History The following pages are filled with lots of great memories 1Tom racing, cruising, regattas, fun-filled gatherings - all made possible because of the enthusiasm, energy, talent and more importantly, special Friendships formed over the years in this Sail 'N Trail group called MAST. Special thanks to Bev and Wayne Zimmermann for their wonderful photography, as well as their "living History" of MAST - a most viable and welcoming club. Bob and Sarajane Lochner, Betty and Al Meyers, Tom Reading, John and Lynn Lees, Dick and Dot Moen and Jerry and MaryJo Helfenstein have contributed many entertaining stories - more MAST history - more Pictures - all to surely delight everyone and rekindle the wonderful times of years gone by. Hope you enjoy sailing back in to the past. What the racing man uses today, the cruising man will use tomorrow. -old saying!! MAST is born - February, 1972 In February 1972 a meeting was held at our house in Milwaukee to form a local chapter (Fleet 7-2), of the California based North American Sailing Association, (NASA). We were eager to have an organization in which we could share our love of sailing, enjoy camaraderie and hopefully learn from others' experiences. We had our boat for over a year and realized we had a lot to gain if we belonged to an association with other Lake Michigan sailors. Since the NASA organization was composed of all Coastal Recreation boats, (Aquarius and Balboa) their newsletter attracted people from Sheboygan to Chicago. Pat Healy, an Olympic sailor and instructor then allied with North Sails, encouraged us by helping supply liquid refreshments.

  • The Potter Yachter Reminder: Think Safety! As Rob Sampson Found Out, It’S the Little Things That Get Us
    The Potter Yachter Page 1 The Potter Yachter Newsletter of the Longest Lasting West Wight Potter Club in the World June 2016 Report: Wind and Waves in Moss Landing by Phil Marcelis Starting at around 9am on April 29th, several of us converged on Moss Landing. We arrived at various times on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday but we all faced the same threat of strong winds and churning waves outside the harbor. “We had 8 boats,” Bud Kerner observed in his posting on the Trailer Sailor Forum. “Friday and Saturday, the water was very rough, with winds of 15+ knots.” Those who picked the wrong time to go out were greeted with a formidable swell, making the entrance channel uncomfortable to transit. The inner harbor was flatter, but still a bit windy and cold. The small boats stayed within the inner The entrance channel can be treacherous at times. harbor, except for David Bacon who appeared to glide along the waves nonchalantly on Saturday.

  • UNITED STATES PERFORMANCE HANDICAP RACING FLEET LOW, HIGH, AVERAGE and MEDIAN PERFORMANCE HANDICAPS for the Years 2005 Through 2011 IMPORTANT NOTE
    UNITED STATES PERFORMANCE HANDICAP RACING FLEET LOW, HIGH, AVERAGE AND MEDIAN PERFORMANCE HANDICAPS for the years 2005 through 2011 IMPORTANT NOTE The following pages lists base performance handicaps (BHCPs) and low, high, average, and median performance handicaps reported by US PHRF Fleets for well over 4100 boat classes or types displayed in Adobe Acrobat portable document file format. Use Adobe Acrobat’s ‘FIND” feature, <CTRL-F>, to display specific information in this list for each class. Class names conform to US PHRF designations. The information for this list was culled from data sources used to prepare the “History of US PHRF Affiliated Fleet Handicaps for 2011”. This reference book, published annually by the UNITED STATES SAILING ASSOCIATION, is often referred to as the “Red, White, & Blue book of PHRF Handicaps”. The publication lists base handicaps in seconds per mile by Class, number of actively handicapped boats by Fleet, date of last reported entry and other useful information collected over the years from more than 60 reporting PHRF Fleets throughout North America. The reference is divided into three sections, Introduction, Monohull Base Handicaps, and Multihull Base Handicaps. Assumptions underlying determination of PHRF Base Handicaps are explicitly listed in the Introduction section. The reference is available on-line to US SAILING member PHRF fleets and the US SAILING general membership. A current membership ID and password are required to login and obtain access at: http://offshore.ussailing.org/PHRF/2011_PHRF_Handicaps_Book.htm . Precautions: Reported handicaps base handicaps are for production boats only. One-off custom designs are not included. A base handicap does not include fleet adjustments for variances in the sail plan and other modifications to designed hull form and rig that determine the actual handicap used to score a race.

  • High-Low-Mean PHRF Handicaps
    UNITED STATES PERFORMANCE HANDICAP RACING FLEET HIGH, LOW, AND AVERAGE PERFORMANCE HANDICAPS IMPORTANT NOTE The following pages list low, high and average performance handicaps reported by USPHRF Fleets for over 4100 boat classes/types. Using Adobe Acrobat’s ‘FIND” feature, <CTRL-F>, information can be displayed for each boat class upon request. Class names conform to USPHRF designations. The source information for this listing also provides data for the annual PHRF HANDICAP listings (The Red, White, & Blue Book) published by the UNITED STATES SAILING ASSOCIATION. This publication also lists handicaps by Class/Type, Fleet, Confidence Codes, and other useful information. Precautions: Handicap data represents base handicaps. Some reported handicaps represent determinations based upon statute rather than nautical miles. Some of the reported handicaps are based upon only one handicapped boat. The listing covers reports from affiliated fleets to USPHRF for the period March 1995 to June 2008. This listing is updated several times each year.
