  • Masts & Rigging
    Masts & Rigging By Ralf Morgan Standing Rigging Careful inspection and preparation of the spars and rigging is essential prior to any voyage offshore. Embarking on the Pacific Cup is an undertaking that is likely to be the equivalent of many years of use for the average boat. To put this into perspective, sailing the Pacific Cup is the equivalent distance as sailing from the Blackhaller Buoy to the Blossom Rock Buoy 679.8 times. Many Bay sailors have not done that in a lifetime. Now, if you decide you are going to sail back too……. Many aspects of inspection and preparation are common to all sailboat rigs regardless of construction or type. If the owner/skipper has not taken the opportunity to do a careful inspection of the rig in the past three years, it makes a lot of sense to pull the rig and go over it very carefully. There are areas of the rig that can really only be inspected and serviced when it is not under tension. There are other items that are just easier to do on the ground. While the rig is down, become intimately familiar with it. Take some digital photos of key components. Remember that two in the morning during a driving squall, is not the optimal time to gain familiarity with your rig! 1) Starting at the bottom and working up: the first thing to inspect is the actual mast base. This includes both the mast tube and the mast step. On aluminum spars you should be most concerned about corrosion and electrolysis.

  • 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.

  • Basic Sailing Terms
    Sailing Quick Reference Guide Basic Sailing Terms: Ease: To let out the sails. Trim: To pull the sails in Luffing: The flapping of the whole sail, flogging – when sails are over eased Windward: Towards the wind. Leeward: Away from the wind. Starboard Tack: wind is coming from the starboard (right) side of the boat Port Tack: wind is coming from the port (left) side of the boat Basic Right of Way Rules: Keep Clear - One boat keeps clear of another if the other boat can sail her course with no need to take avoiding action and, when the boats are overlapped on the same tack, if the leeward boat could change course without immediately making contact with the windward boat. 1. Starboard – Port: Port-tack boat must keep clear of starboard-tack boat 2. Leeward – Windward: Windward boat must keep clear of leeward boat. 3. Clear Ahead: Clear astern boat must keep clear of clear ahead boat 4. Tacking: A boat "past head to wind" (i.e., "tacking") must keep clear of other boats. 5. Sail vs. Motor: Boat using motor power must keep clear of boat using sails Points of Sail: Sailboat Maneuvers: Coming-About (Tacking): In this maneuver, the bow of the boat goes through the wind as one changes from a close-hauled point-of-sail on one tack (direction) to a close hauled point-of-sail on the other direction. Only the jib needs to be adjusted, the working sheet of the jib is changed and the new working sheet is placed on a winch. The mainsail is left alone and will by itself often assume the correct position.
