  • Historical Portsmouth Number List
    Historical Portsmouth Number List The RYA Portsmouth Yardstick Scheme is provided to enable clubs to allow boats of different classes to race against each other fairly. The RYA actively encourages clubs to adjust handicaps where classes are either under or over performing compared to the number being used. The Portsmouth Yardstick list combines the Portsmouth numbers with class configuration and the total number of races returned to the RYA in the annual return. This additional data has been provided to help clubs achieve the stated aims of the Portsmouth Yardstick system and make adjustments to Portsmouth Numbers where necessary. Clubs using the PN list should be aware that the list is based on the average performance of each boat across a variety of clubs and locations. The numbers in the PN list may not reflect the peak performance of each boat. Historical numbers are listed below and have been collated from the RYA's archive of PN lists. It should be remembered that the Portsmouth Yardstick number list has been through a number of changes and the numbers listed below have had conversion factors applied where needed. It should also be remembered that whilst all efforts are taken for PN's not to drift, relative performance of older boats may be quite different to modern classes. The numbers are given as a starting point to help clubs arrive at a fair number and if these numbers are used then they should be reviewed regularly. Users of the PY scheme are reminded that all Portsmouth Numbers published by the RYA should be regarded as a guide only.

  • Ice Fishing
    JANUARY, 1972 *EM$YLVANIA the^ Keystone State's Official 2^ nglerFfSHiNG BOATiNC Single Copy Ice Fisi pne's flere Again page 6 VIEWPOINT 7* by ROBERT J. BIELO Executive Director FAREWELL In past years 1 have used the January "Viewpoint" to present a few New Year's Resolutions. This year when the January ANGLER goes to press 1 will no longer be the Executive Director of the Pennsylvania Fish Com­ mission, thus this will be my last "Viewpoint" column. Looking back briefly I recall that my early days at the Linesville Hatchery convinced me that the work of the Fish Culturist is a combination of hard physical labor, the endurance of extremes of heat and cold and a "Mother's" constant concern over the complex needs of the delicate stock being nurtured. Service as a Waterways Patrolman opened my eyes to pollution and the terrible toll untreated wastes of all kinds were taking of our price­ less water resources. During this period 1 also had a chance to discover that while a few folks deliberately violated the laws established to protect our fisheries resources, most people willingly observed the laws and were genuinely interested in our fish and wildlife. Later as a Fishery Biologist this interest of growing numbers of Pennsylvanians in the sound management of our natural resources became much more evident, although just ten years ago public concern of outdoors affairs was but a fraction of what it is today. Items of prime concern then involved the many actions of man leading to siltation of our streams and to the seemingly endless schemes to channel all waterways, obliterating most na­ tural habitat for fish and other aquatic organisms.

  • LUFF LETTER Latitude: 35º50’55.27”N Longitude: 84º09’4.809”W
    Member Newsletter April 2021 | No. 565 Concord Yacht Club LUFF LETTER Latitude: 35º50’55.27”N Longitude: 84º09’4.809”W “Land was created to provide a place for boats to visit.” -Brooks Atkinson www.concordyachtclub.org Commodore’s | Report At the anniversary of the beginning of COVID’s dramatic impact on our lives, the first thing that comes to mind is it has been a long year full of challenges and stress. Thankfully, the grip of the virus is easing and slowly things are moving closer to the type of normal life we had before. As a result of the last year of precautions, not only have we not been able to gather and enjoy our time together, our Club’s grounds and facilities have not had significant attention since late 2019. Numerous things require maintenance along with some repair and replacement. Although a few projects are a sig- nificant undertaking, most are smaller jobs that do not require a lot of time and can be accomplished by one to four people. I urge everyone to find ways to contribute to helping catch up around our Club in- cluding taking on a Project Manager role for the more involved projects. Board Meeting The March Board Meeting items of note: • The COVID Benchmarks in Knox County continue to improve and are either Yellow or Green. The Board is continuing to monitor the situation and is looking for Knox County to review their protocols and continue to slowly ease restrictions. • The Board approved the CSC COVID mitigation plan for a US Sailing Level 1 Instructor Class.
