October 2020 Newsletter YANKEE POINT NEWS! Virginia is for Lovers, but Lancaster County is for Boat Lovers! Volume 245 October 1, 2020 Hello Yankee Pointers! I think the summer heat is gone for this year! I don’t know about you but I am very thankful that September is over. Eventful is too passive a statement to describe the activities for the past month. First we had a difficult grounding to resolve. Suffice it to say folks, we don’t recommend running inside the red bell buoy off of Towles Point in a 4 foot draft sailboat! Then in the last two weeks of the month we had to pull our own rental deck boat off of the bottom in her own slip twice in 7 days! I turned out that the transom had delaminated to the point that water was seeping around the engine bolt holes inside the fiberglass and down into the bilge. It overcame the bilge pump (more likely the float switch failed) and down she went. Mike Kues worked his magic and the engine is back to normal and the transom has been repaired but what a pain in the pattoot! Then another boat tried to sink on us but I was able to sit on the bow to bring the stern up (no comments please) enough to get the boat into the straps of the travel lift. That turned out to be a broken scupper fitting allowing water to get into the bilge. We lucked out on that one. In the middle of that our computers got hacked and we had to do a major cleanout of all of the computers here. We are clean now and have changed passwords but still emails are going out to our customer list. Please be carefull about opening any email from [email protected] or [email protected]. Check the address to see if it is just those email addresses or if there is an additional address after those addresses. If there is an additiional addess DELETE the EMAIL and especially don’t open any attachment therein. Another major pain from September. Finally the pièce de résistance, a 43’ Pacemaker Trawler in slip Z-4 decided to sink at the dock. She had been n the yard less than two weeks, her owner having brought her down the coast from Long Island without insurance! Luckily we had required insurance to keep her here and it had gone into effect less than one week before she sank! We called the local Tow Boat US to come and raise her and as they tried the first time, diesel started to spew out of the vents and we had a significant oil spill on our hands! We had already notiied VMRC and had deployed a boom around the entire slip but at this point we also brought the Coast Guard into the equation. It took Tow Boat US two days and five people to get the boat up on the surface so we could haul her out. Now how to make sure I don’t get stuck with the hulk! This was supposed to be a nice relaxing segue into retirement. Now going on 21 years. The Saltwater pool will be closing next week! Now that the weather has turned cool, we aren’t seeing much traffic there. But Murray is still open at the Poolside Café and is doing a brisk business. No change to his Thoursday through Monday schedule. Paint Barn: We just moved a Cherubini 44 into the paint barn for a hull and deck paint job that will take up the better part of two months, so October and November are spoken for. If you are contemplating a paint job, please don’t wait too long especially if your boat is already on the hard. Based on the volume of calls we are getting for winter storage, it looks like the yard will be even more filled than last year. Plan on both aisles having boats stored in them! “Support Your Local Law Enforcement Concert”. NO CHANGE - I don’t know what to print about this at this point other than IT WILL HAPPEN! We just don’t know when. 1 | P a g e YANKEE POINT NEWS! Virginia is for Lovers, but Lancaster County is for Boat Lovers!

Emerald has a new Awlgrip hull paint in a one-of-a-kind pastel green that enhances her eye appeal and gives her a current look. If you are into a traditional boat with a sea kindly nature, she deserves your attention. Accommodations: The interior of Emerald is teak, teak and more teak. The cabin sole is Teak and Holly throughout. All compartment doors are louvered teak and most of the cabinet doors are teak and cane weaving. Deck prisms, abundant hatches including the amidships traditional butterfly hatch and the eight, cast aluminum opening portlights provide plenty of light and ventilation. Starting from the pointy end, an ample anchor line and chain locker with louvered double doors form the forward bulkhead of the forwardmost compartment. Twin V berth bunks with storage below and small teak cabinets outboard on port and starboard (p/s). Deck prisms provide ample light and a large forward hatch provides ventilation and access. A louvered teak door provides privacy. Just aft is the head with marine toilet, stainless steel (ss) sink with hot and cold (h/c) pressure fresh water. The spigot serves dual purpose as the telephone shower. The deck is teak grate and has a separate shower sump. Two opening portlights and a small hatch provide light and ventilation. A beautifully made curved mainmast encasement for the raked mast fits in beautifully in the décor. There are cabinets p&s with teak and cane sliding doors above the counters and storage in cabinets below. The CruisAir unit is in the starboard cabinet. Privacy is provided by a louvered teak door. Continuing aft is the large, open main salon. A diesel heater is mounted to the forward bulkhead and vented through the coach roof. A truly unique U-shaped settee is to port with new cushions and a table that is supported by a hydraulic post that telescopes to provide the support for conversion to an oversize queen berth. A third option allows the table to swivel and the cushions convert to two starboard facing lounge chairs. Storage is provided in the form of cabinets p&s with teak and cane doors. The port cabinet contains four drawers. There is also storage under and behind the U-shaped settee and under the 5’ long starboard settee and in cabinets behind. Teak grab rails p&s offer easy underway safety. Four opening ports, a teak and glass butterfly opening hatch and 4 LED reading lights provide light and ventilation.

  • Mainsail Trim Pointers, Reefing and Sail Care for the Beneteau Oceanis Series
    Neil Pryde Sails International 1681 Barnum Avenue Stratford, CT 06614 203-375-2626 [email protected] INTERNATIONAL DESIGN AND TECHNICAL OFFICE Mainsail Trim Pointers, Reefing and Sail Care for the Beneteau Oceanis Series The following points on mainsail trim apply both to the Furling and Classic mainsails we produce for Beneteau USA and the Oceanis Line of boats. In sailing the boats we can offer these general ideas and observations that will apply to the 311’s through to the newest B49. Mainsail trim falls into two categories, upwind and downwind. MAINSAIL TRIM: The following points on mainsail trim apply both to the Furling and Classic mainsail, as the concepts are the same. Mainsail trim falls into two categories, upwind and downwind. Upwind 1. Upwind in up to about 8 knots true wind the traveler can be brought to weather of centerline. This ensures that the boom will be close centerline and the leech of the sail in a powerful upwind mode. 2. The outhaul should be eased 2” / 50mm at the stopper, easing the foot of the mainsail away from the boom about 8”/200mm 3. Mainsheet tension should be tight enough to have the uppermost tell tail on the leech streaming aft about 50% of the time in the 7- 12 true wind range. For those with furling mainsails the action of furling and unfurling the sail can play havoc with keeping the telltales on the sail and you may need to replace them from time to time. Mainsail outhaul eased for light air upwind trim You will find that the upper tell tail will stall and fold over to the weather side of the sail about 50% of the time in 7-12 knots.

  • Are We Having Fun Yet! Created by John Barnett
    Are we having fun Yet! created by John Barnett { Rule 1, Never go down below specially with the engine running packing food, that should have been done at the dock. If you feel it coming on, do something active like steering. If you are prone to sea sickness take the proper drugs, before leaving the dock, better at night before to start. If sick, keep warm, try to drink, stay on deck, small bucket can be your friend. I have small buckets on my boat. No Cotton underwear will keep you cold. No! you can’t swim with the dolphins. Follow what the doc told you today. If wind is coming in the Galveston channel and against the current. Leave the channel going close to the east jetty, sail out until the waves calm down, then turn to the start. This can be the worst part of the race. Seasickness is the major problem! Understand the clouds and winds Watch the barometer, if it starts dropping shorten sail. If you smell ozone that fresh lighting smell, all hell is about to happen sails should have been reefed. Which way is the wind blowing? If the wind is blowing from the aft and the big clouds are coming from forward. Shorten sail. Make sure someone go down close and lock everything early. Fronts: Time to change sails or prepare for a wind shift. Do you have your harness on with life jacket? Jib should be rolled up, main ready to be reefed or done, look at the waves up there for a shift looking at white caps, flying spray starts at 27kts in salt water Shortening Sails First of all, does everyone in the crew know how? Skipper maybe sea sick down below.

In the hands of her current and original owner she was transformed into one of the most customized, highly detailed, well equipped and unique Leopard 58’s in existence. From her Carbon fiber roller furling boom to make sailing easy, to the custom cabinetry to enhance the already generous storage space, and a custom electrical system, where there was an opportunity to improve or make better, it was done.

  • STANDARD SAIL and EQUIPMENT SPECIFICATIONS (Updated October, 2016)
    STANDARD SAIL AND EQUIPMENT SPECIFICATIONS (Updated October, 2016) 1. Headsails, distinctions between jibs and spinnakers A. A headsail is defined as a sail in the fore triangle. It can be either a spinnaker, asymmetrical spinnaker or a jib. B. Distinction between spinnakers and jibs. A sail shall not be measured as a spinnaker unless the midgirth is 75% or more of the foot length and the sail is symmetrical about a line joining the head to the center of the foot. No jib may have a midgirth measured between the midpoints of luff and leech more than 50% of the foot length. Headsails with mid-girths, as cut, between 50% and 75% shall be handicapped on an individual basis. C. Asymmetrical spinnakers shall conform to the requirements of these specifications. 2. Definitions of jibs A. A jib is defined as any sail, other than a spinnaker that is to be set in the fore triangle. In any jib the midgirth, measured between the midpoints of the luff and leech shall not exceed 50% of the foot length nor shall the length of any intermediate girth exceed a value similarly proportionate to its distance from the head of the sail. B. A sailboat may use a luff groove device provided that such luff groove device is of constant section throughout its length and is either essentially circular in section or is free to rotate without restraint. C. Jibs may be sheeted from only one point on the sail except in the process of reefing. Thus quadrilateral or similar sails in which the sailcloth does not extend to the cringle at each corner are excluded.
