Dimensions Hull length 4.44 m Waterline length 4.10 m Breadth 1.70 m Depth 0.68 m Draught (centreboard up) 0.25 m Draught (centreboard down) 0.86 m ISO Light weight (clinker) 245 kg ISO Light weight (strip planking) 300 kg Sail area standing lug 12.2 m² Sail area lug yawl 12.4 m² Sail area sloop 14 m² Note: the ISO light weight includes the full rig (standing lug option), anchoring line and basic mooring equip- ment. This weight may vary according to plywood and timber choice. Thus, it is recommended to weight the boat prior ordering the trailer. Add 11 kg for the sloop version. It is possible to save 10 kg with a reduced thickness of floorboards (see ap- pendix 1). 2.2. Boat presentation Ilur was designed as a family day sailing boat. It can be used for fishing and even coastal cruising. Two Ilur have been to Ile of Sein, at the extreme West of France, one of the worst place to go with tremendous tides and sea conditions. However, do not consider this as an invitation to go there ! Ilur has good seakeeping abil- ity, but still in the sail and oar spirit. Its superior quality makes Ilur my best-seller plan (with nearly thousand copies sold). It has been built in many places, from the very heart of Alps, to Pacific islands! If you have to choose the best boat for your intended use, just notice than Ilur is not an easygoing rowing boat compared to others of my sail and oar designs. She is mainly intended for sail, oars being used when wind is falling or to reach some narrow inlets. Ilur was designed at first with the simple standing lug sail in the Breton style (said “misainier” rig). A lug sloop rig is now proposed and is a valuable option. A balanced lug rig (lug sail with boom) is an other option, interest- ing for river or single-handed sailing. 2.3. Ilur clinker version built from a kit This set of documents describes a new version of Ilur, said clinker kit, which is clinker built and available only as a CNC (numerically controlled machine) cut plywood kit. Main changes and improvements are as follows: ✔ Construction from a refined plywood kit allowing a dramatic decrease of the building time. Laminated or steam bent frames are replaced by a few plywood frames, ✔ Locker afterwards, ✔ New pivoting centreboard and rudder, ✔ Oar stowage above or under floorboards, ✔ Building manual with 3D sketches, ✔ Choice between 3 possible rigs. Ilur has been improved many times from the first design in 1988. So be careful when looking at other Ilur and pictures and do not copy without checking it is appropriate. This document is the property of François Vivier Architecte Naval. It shall not be copied, transmitted to any other person, nor published as a whole or partly, without the written consent of the architect. March 2019 Building Ilur clinker kit Page 4/24 2.4. Classic Ilur Apart from the new clinker kit Ilur, the previous Ilur design, now named “classic Ilur”, is still available. Classic Ilur: ✔ Is built either strip planked or plywood clinker ✔ Has laminated or steam bent frames giving a very traditional and beautiful look. ✔ Is built from plan package only (different from the Ilur clinker kit). ✔ Full size patterns on mylar (polyester sheet) are available as an option. 2.5. Compliance to regulations WARNING Ilur is a boat that may capsize. It is important to be always vigilant at the helm and always ready to release the sheets. Carry an amount of sail appropriate for the wind and the sea state, particularly if no external assistance is available. Moreover, it is necessary to be ready beforehand in the event of a capsize, most particularly in regard to righting the boat, calling for help, and ensuring the survival of the crew. Ilur is designed in compliance with the requirements of the European Recreative Craft Directive 1994/25/CE amended 2003/44/CE. It is designed to sail in the following categories: ✔ In category C, with a maximum of 3 persons on board (maximum loading 275 kg) ✔ In category D, with a maximum of 5 persons on board (maximum loading 425 kg) The minimum crew is one person, as the boat may be right up by one person only in calm sea conditions. It is recommended to be at least two on board when sailing in poor wind and sea conditions or away from any pos - sible assistance. Attention : it is recommended to keep on board a piece of cloth to be inserted into centreboard case in order to avoid water entry after capsize and ease bailing out. Ilur may receive a motor of maximum power 4.4 kW / 6 hp (long of short shaft). A 2 to 3 hp motor is preferable, being lighter and easier to handle. The definition of these categories is pointed out below: Category C (Inshore): designed for trips in coastal waters, large bays, estuaries, lakes and rivers where condi- tions up to, and including, wind force 6 and significant wave heights up to, and including, 2 m may be experi - enced. Category D (Sheltered waters): designed for voyages in close coastal waters, small bays, lakes, rivers and canals where conditions up to and including wind force 4 and maximum wave heights up to and including 0,3 m may be experienced. NOTE: The significant wave height is the mean height of the highest one third of the waves, which approxim- ately corresponds to the wave height estimated by an experienced observer. Some waves will be double this height. This document is the property of François Vivier Architecte Naval.

  • Sailing Course Materials Overview
    SAILING COURSE MATERIALS OVERVIEW INTRODUCTION The NCSC has an unusual ownership arrangement -- almost unique in the USA. You sail a boat jointly owned by all members of the club. The club thus has an interest in how you sail. We don't want you to crack up our boats. The club is also concerned about your safety. We have a good reputation as competent, safe sailors. We don't want you to spoil that record. Before we started this training course we had many incidents. Some examples: Ran aground in New Jersey. Stuck in the mud. Another grounding; broke the tiller. Two boats collided under the bridge. One demasted. Boats often stalled in foul current, and had to be towed in. Since we started the course the number of incidents has been significantly reduced. SAILING COURSE ARRANGEMENT This is only an elementary course in sailing. There is much to learn. We give you enough so that you can sail safely near New Castle. Sailing instruction is also provided during the sailing season on Saturdays and Sundays without appointment and in the week by appointment. This instruction is done by skippers who have agreed to be available at these times to instruct any unkeyed member who desires instruction. CHECK-OUT PROCEDURE When you "check-out" we give you a key to the sail house, and you are then free to sail at any time. No reservation is needed. But you must know how to sail before you get that key. We start with a written examination, open book, that you take at home.

In with this program. any event, particularly if watches are being set, it becomes imperative that everyone have a good understanding of all lines and maneuvers the ship may be asked to perform. Safety Sailing the brigantines safely is our primary goal and the Los Angeles Maritime Institute has an enviable safety record. We should stress, however, that these ships are NOT rides at Disneyland. These are large and powerful sailing vessels and you can be injured, or even killed, if proper procedures are not followed in a safe, orderly, and controlled fashion. As a crewmember you have as much responsibility for the safe running of these vessels as any member of the crew, including the ship’s officers. 1. When laying aloft, crewmembers should always climb and descend on the weather side of the shrouds and the bowsprit.

  • Windsurfing Handout
    Windsurfing Handout For some good instructions see: http://neptune.he.net/~csc/test/library/windsurf/index.html Windsurfer Rigging 1. Unroll the sail with the mast sleeve to windward. Be careful not to lose the bottom batten. Hang the sail bag in the Windsurfing Locker to prevent it from blowing away. 2. Slide the mast into the mast sleeve. 3. Place the mast base or mast extension on the mast and thread the downhaul line through grommet in the sail. (in general, only sails that are larger than 5.6 m2 will require a mast extension; smaller sails can be adjusted at the mast cap.) 4. Tighten the downhaul moderately until the sail is stretched flat away from the mast in the area near the top batten. 5. Attach the boom to the mast. 6. Attach the outhaul to the sail and outhaul the sail until it is completely flat. (The boom should be lengthened as necessary.) This pretensions the mast, and aids batten adjustments. 7. Insert the bottom batten and tighten the battens until there are no wrinkles in the batten sleeves. 8. Finish tightening the downhaul. For the older (Pre-1992) sails, this means tightening the downhaul until the top batten pulls away from the mast. For the newer (1992 - present) sails, this means tightening the downhaul until the leech of the sail becomes loose down to the second batten. (Since this will require a good deal of effort, it may be necessary to tie a bowline in the downhaul rope and use a piece of pipe to get a good grip for pulling.) 9.
