For Outright Speed 1 TUNE YOUR RIG FOR OUTRIGHT SPEED Farr 30 Tuning Guide Solutions for today’s sailors 2 I‘ve done a LOT of sailing in the Farr 30. It’s an exciting, yet simple boat to sail... quick in light air and certainly a handful in a breeze. The Farr 30 is a boat that was ahead of it’s time, and we’ve always been excited about this well-organized class of owner-driven boats. At North Sails, we’re proud to have been involved with the Farr 30 from the inception. We have worked hard to develop sails that will deliver the speed you need to win and the durability you need to keep winning, season after season. We’ve also prepared this Farr 30 Tuning Guide to help you get your boat and crew competitive fast. Use it... it works!

This provides two points to look through when gauging mast tune NOTE: All measurements are taken to the centerline of clevis pins, bolts, etc. Farr 30 Tuning Guide Solutions for today’s sailors 5 Setting Up the Rig Forestay There are two methods to measure the forestay length. Backstay Method 1 flicker • Pin-to-Pin: 12.20m (40’ 1/4”) • Send a crewmember up the mast with a (15m) 50’ tape measure. • Hold the end of the tape measure at the junction of the mast and T-ball fitting, measure down to the pin- center on the stemhead fitting. Method 2 • Take the Jib Halyard and raise to the BAS (top of the black band) at the gooseneck. • Swing an arc between the mast and the headstay. See A on drawing to the right. • Where the halyard intersects at the headstay, place a mark on the headfoil and measure to the center of the forestay pin at the stemhead fitting. B = 1.82m (5’11-5/8”) NOTE: Use a Jib Halyard for accurate measurement. A Cap Shrouds B Once the mast is centered, adjust the forestay and the cap shrouds. Using the RT10 Loos Gauge set the Caps (V) by adjusting both side equal amounts to #36. 1.82m (5'11-5/8") Headstay "Arc" Diagonals to forestay pin D2 Using the PT2 Loos Gauge set the D2s to #6.

  • ​470 Rigging Instructions
    ​470 Rigging Instructions 1. Stepping the mast up. a. Ensure the mast partner slit is open. b. With the boat on the grass, step inside (clean or remove shoes first!), and receive the mast. i. Ensure the heel of the mast is clean. ii. If continuous jib sheet, ensure around the mast slot. c. Place the heel of the mast in the shoe inside the boat d. Lean the mast forward, against the deck. e. Free the forestay and attach it. f. Free the shrouds and trapeze, ensure not twisted, and attach them. g. Free the other controls (vang, cunningham, spinnaker halyard, topping lift, down haul), ensure not twisted and attach them. h. Close the mast partner slit. 2. Rigging the boat a. Attach the tack and head of the jib. b. Run the foot of the main sail through the boom, attach the clew and tack. i. On some boats the tack can only be attached after the boom is secured in the gooseneck. ii. On some of the boats it is easier to hoist the mainsail and latch its halyard first, and only then attach the gooseneck and the tack. c. Attach the all 3 ends of the spinnaker and bag it. i. Note: the spinnaker lines should be the outermost, while its halyard stays close to the mast (between the jib lines). ii. Ensure the halyards are not twisted. d. Hoist the jib and attach the halyard cable loop to the tensioner hook. i. VERY IMPORTANT: Make sure the hook catches the metal cable loop and not the messenger line!!! e.

  • Spinnakers and Poles/Bowsprits Explained
    SPINNAKERS AND POLES/BOWSPRITS EXPLAINED The RORC Rating Office is sometimes asked whether symmetric and asymmetric spinnakers are rated differently, and whether there is a rating increase if you use both types. The question is often prompted by the IRC application form asking questions about the spinnakers of each type carried aboard, rather than just the largest spinnaker area (SPA) and total number of spinnakers. There are two aspects of downwind sail rating: the sail itself and the type of pole (if any) it is set on - as explained below. Text in italics is taken from the IRC 2018 Rule text. SPINNAKERS For the calculation of your rating, IRC considers the largest spinnaker area (SPA) and the total number of spinnakers carried. 21.6 Spinnakers 21.6.1 Boats carrying more than three spinnakers in total on board while racing will incur an increase in rating. 21.6.2 Spinnaker area (SPA) shall be calculated from: SPA = ((SLU + SLE)/2) * ((SFL + (4 * SHW))/5) * 0.83 SLU, SLE, SFL and SHW of the largest area spinnaker on board shall be declared. The calculated area of this spinnaker will be shown on a boat’s certificate as the maximum permitted SPA. 8.10.1 Values stated on certificates for LH, Hull Beam, Bulb Weight, Draft, x, P, E, J, FL, MUW, MTW, MHW, HLUmax, HSA, PY, EY, LLY, LPY, Cutter Rig HLUmax, SPA, STL are maximum values. Are symmetric or asymmetric spinnakers rated differently? Not directly, but see the section on pole type below. Is there a rating increase if I carry both symmetric and asymmetric spinnakers? Not directly, but see the section on pole type below.

  • 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.

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.
