When the war ended he had an opportunity to go back to Ireland, but stayed here and set up his own business. He and a partner formed a trading company that eventually went bankrupt and Askin spent over 10 years paying off his debt. He then formed a new company called the Southwest Fur Trading Company; his territory was from Montreal on the east to Minnesota on the west including all of the Northern Great Lakes. He had three boats built: Welcome, Felicity and Archange. Welcome is believed to be the first vessel he had constructed for his fur trade. Felicity and Archange were named after his daughter and wife. The origin of Welcome’s name is not known. He had two wives, a European wife in Detroit and an Indian wife up in the Straits. His wife in Detroit knew about the Indian wife and had accepted this and in turn she also made sure that all the children of his Indian wife received schooling. Felicity married a man by the name of Brush (Brush Street in Detroit is named after him).

Mainsail – must be able to reduce luff length by 10% 2. Boat shall carry at least 2 of the following 3 sails: a. A trysail with sail numbers on both sides, which can be set independently of the boom, has an area less than 17.5% of E x P, and which is capable of being attached to the mast. Sails newer than 1/1/2014 must be constructed of highly visible material. b. A storm jib with an alternate means of attachment to the headstay, if the head foil fails, and highly visible material c.

  • Mast Furling Installation Guide
    NORTH SAILS MAST FURLING INSTALLATION GUIDE Congratulations on purchasing your new North Mast Furling Mainsail. This guide is intended to help better understand the key construction elements, usage and installation of your sail. If you have any questions after reading this document and before installing your sail, please contact your North Sails representative. It is best to have two people installing the sail which can be accomplished in less than one hour. Your boat needs facing directly into the wind and ideally the wind speed should be less than 8 knots. Step 1 Unpack your Sail Begin by removing your North Sails Purchasers Pack including your Quality Control and Warranty information. Reserve for future reference. Locate and identify the battens (if any) and reserve for installation later. Step 2 Attach the Mainsail Tack Begin by unrolling your mainsail on the side deck from luff to leech. Lift the mainsail tack area and attach to your tack fitting. Your new Mast Furling mainsail incorporates a North Sails exclusive Rope Tack. This feature is designed to provide a soft and easily furled corner attachment. The sail has less patching the normal corner, but has the Spectra/Dyneema rope splayed and sewn into the sail to proved strength. Please ensure the tack rope is connected to a smooth hook or shackle to ensure durability and that no chafing occurs. NOTE: If your mainsail has a Crab Claw Cutaway and two webbing attachment points – Please read the Stowaway Mast Furling Mainsail installation guide. Step 2 www.northsails.com Step 3 Attach the Mainsail Clew Lift the mainsail clew to the end of the boom and run the outhaul line through the clew block.

  • An Analytical Approach to the Question of a Clock Change
    An Analytical Approach to the Question of a Clock Change by Samuel Halpern One of the ongoing arguments that continues to be brought up is the question of whether or not clocks on Titanic were put back some time before the accident took place Sunday night, April 14, 1912. Some of the deck crew, awakened by the accident at 11:40 p.m. ship’s time, thought that it was close to the time that they were due to take their watch on deck, which would be at 12 o’clock. Despite Boatswain’s Mate Albert Haines, who was awake and on duty at the time, testifying that “The right time, without putting the clock back, was 20 minutes to 12,” there are some that try to argue that a 24 minute clock adjustment had already taken place, and the time of the accident on an unadjusted clock still keeping April 14th time would have been 4 minutes past 12. The underlying question that would resolve this issue is the run time from noon Sunday to the time of the accident. If the run time from noon to the time of the accident was 11 hours 40 minutes, then no clock change had yet taken place, and the time of collision was 11:40 p.m. in unadjusted hours. If the run time was more than 12 hours, then there was a clock change of some 23 or 24 minutes, and the time of collision was 11:40 p.m. in adjusted hours. It really is that simple. So how do we determine the actual run time from the available evidence that does not have to rely on subjective estimates such as time intervals or other measures that people may have perceived? The answer is to take an analytical approach to the problem using the taffrail log mileage data offered by quartermasters George Rowe and Robert Hichens at the inquiries.
