  • Origin and Rebirth of “BABE”, an S&S 30 Daysailer
    Origin and Rebirth of “BABE”, an S&S 30 Daysailer Excerpts by Danielle Abbott, S&S Naval Architect and Glenn Walters, Managing Partner, Bluenose Yachts Before his death at age 100, the co-founder of Sparkman & Stephens chose a 1935 sloop—one of the smallest of S&S’s many ocean racer/cruiser designs—as the yacht he most wanted to update. In 1935 Olin Stephens, the design half of a Manhattan design-and brokerage firm started by Stephens and yacht broker Drake Sparkman six years earlier, drew up plans for a custom 30' 6" (9.3m) ocean racer for the Miami–Nassau and St. Petersburg–Havana races. Named Babe, she was a forward-thinking boat for the time, with short overhangs and light displacement, just barely meeting the requirements of the Southern Ocean Racing Conference. Accommodations were secondary: a simple galley, portable toilet between berths, and a single pipe berth forward. Her large sail plan had a high- aspect ratio for that period, and the boomkin made an extra-long boom possible without a lengthy stern overhang. Listed by S&S as Design No. 97, Babe embodied trends that would later drive modern cruising and racing yachts. Her length overall was the minimum allowed for the ocean races in which she was to participate, making her an agile and responsive racer. To compensate for the lower stability of a small boat, the beam was made “almost one-third of her waterline length,” wrote Stephens (in his book Lines, mentioned below) “more than most larger boats” of the pre-WWII era.

  • H.M.S Victory 1805
    H.M.S VICTORY 1805 Exact scale model of the 100-Gun British Ship of the Line. This, the fifth ship of the Royal Navy to bear the name Victory, had three major battle honours. The first being the Battle of Ushant 1781, the second, the Battle of St. Vincent 1797 and the third, for which she is most famed, the Battle of Trafalgar 1805. By the end of the Battle of Trafalgar, there was not a mast, spar, shroud or sail on board Victory that had not been severely damaged, lost or destroyed in the conflict.

Slice the dowel (running with the grain), from a round at the start point of the taper to a square at the end of the taper. 2. Repeat this process so that the dowel runs from round at the start of the taper to an eight sided polygon at the end of the taper. 3. Repeat step two as desired so that the dowel runs from a round at the start of the taper to a 16 or 32 sided polygon at the end, of a diameter marginally more than that required.

This survey report represents the honest and unbiased opinion of the surveyor, but in no event is to be considered a guarantee or warranty of any kind. Further, no determination of stability characteristics has been made and no opinion expressed. This report is a summary of the findings of the survey performed on 22 October 2018 for Mr. David Oliver with the sole intent to determine the condition of the vessel for purchase, insurance, and finance.

  • Handling Storms at Sea : the Five Secrets of Heavy Weather Sailing
    HANDLING STORMS AT SEA Overleaf: What is blue-water sailing really like when it’s stormy and big seas are running? Here’s my Santa Cruz 50 hurrying eastward near Marion Island in the Southern Ocean. The ever-faithful windvane is steering nicely while I play with the mainsail reefs and adjust the sails as the boat races through the water and makes great whooshing sounds as she surfs forward on a wave. You know that the yacht will rise up as the next crest comes, but sometimes you wonder if she is buoyant enough. You take a deep breath and say a silent prayer.
