  • Laser Class Rules - One Design
    Laser Class Rules - One Design One of the attractions of the Laser for most owners is that the class rules are very strict and that the boat is one design. The Laser philosophy incorporated in the rules is that we want to go sailing, not waste time fddling with boats. We want to win races on the water using our skill, not by trying to fnd a way round the rules that will give us an advantage. The class rules are written to prevent any changes from the standard boat that might affect performance, so that on the water each boat is the same. The few changes to the standard boat that are allowed are minor and only to allow for a few options that make racing the Laser more comfortable and enjoyable. Over the years the class has refused to make changes to the rules that allow more expensive or complicated equipment or which makes older boats redundant. If you feel you want to change something on a Laser - STOP. Ask yourself why you want to do it? If the answer is “to make me go faster” there is a very good chance the modifcation or addition is illegal! Take a look at the Laser Rules. • Part One explains the Fundamental Class Rule which covers the philosophy and any item not specifcally written into the rules. • Part Two tells you what you must do to have a legal boat. • Part Three details a few optional changes and additions you can make. If Part Three does not specifcally allow a change or addition - IT IS ILLEGAL! If you race a Laser that has a change or addition not allowed by the class rules you will be disqualifed from the race.

  • SHALLOW BOATS; DEEP ADVENTURES! Since 1984
    Since 1984 SHALLOW BOATS; DEEP ADVENTURES! 1 SHOAL DRAFT STABILITY, SIMPLICITY, SPEED AND SAFETY. I’m here to talk about a belief in and a passion for shoal-draft boats, particularly the development of the Round Bottomed Sharpie. I started sailing in centreboard dinghies and that excitement has returned with these boats. As you’ll see these 2 boats have become known as Presto Boats. NEW HAVEN OYSTER- TONGING SHARPIE By definition a Sharpie is a flat-bottomed boat and a New Haven oyster-tonging sharpie looked like this. They were easy to build with their box shape & simple rigs but the boat is an ingenious piece of function and efficiency. The stern is round so the tongs don’t snag on transom corners; the freeboard is low so it’s easy to swing the tongs on board and the long centreboard trunk stops the oysters from shifting SEA OF ABACO 3 under sail. NEW HAVEN SHARPIE RIG The unstayed masts rotate through 360 degrees so the oystermen would sail to windward of the oyster beds and let the sails stream out over the bow while drifting over the beds tonging away. The sails are self-tending and self-vanged so handling is very easy. The boats are fast when loaded so you can get the oysters fresh to market. Oyster bars in big cities were the Starbucks of the late 1800s. You’d pop in for a ½ dozen as a pick-me-up. 4 On the right is an Outward Bound 30 to our design. With our contemporary Sharpies we’ve retained the principles of the traditional rig; it works as well today as it did in the 1800s.

  • Ausschreibung MK Projekt Water Sport
    Ausschreibung der YOUTH SAILING & WATERSPORT CHALLENGE 2017 Bundesleistungszentrum Neusiedl am See 27.08.2017 – 03.09.2017 (Teil 1 – Youth Sailing 2017) 08.09.2017 – 10.09.2017 (Teil 2 – Watersport & SUP Challenge 2017) Ein M.K. Kooperationsprojekt des Allgemeinen Sportverband Österreichs (ASVÖ) und des Österreichischen Segelverbandes (OeSV), gefördert aus Mitteln des BSFF Zentrale Strategie und Projekthintergrund: Unter Einhaltung der im OeSV – Nachwuchskonzept INSPIRE 24 für Phase 1 und 2 vorgegebenen Zielsetzungen ist eine zusätzliche Verstärkung für die Umsetzung des Bereiches der segelsportlichen Vielseitigkeitsentwicklung immer wichtiger geworden. Speziell die teilweise fehlende Ausstattung an notwendigen Ausbildungsmaterialien in den Segelklubs und deren entsprechenden Einsatzmöglichkeiten benötigen neue Wege der Demonstration und Präsentation. Im österreichischen Segelsport ist die Anzahl der segelnden Jugendliche überschaubar. Die traditionellen Trainingsformen (vgl. einseitig) halten viele potentielle Nachwuchsegler von einem Engagement im Segel / Regattasegelsport ab. Auch viele Segelvereine in Österreich haben das Problem zu weniger Kinder / Jugendlicher für ihre Nachwuchsarbeit. Diese Projekt soll durch seine Vielseitigkeit, das neue innovative Format, durch die gebotene Auseinandersetzung mit „actionreichen“ Bootsklassen 29er, 49erFX, TopCat K1, Hobie Dragoon & Hobie16, Kite Surfen , Surfen, etc. Auch der „Schnuppercharakter“ sollte helfen Zugangsbarrieren zu vermindern.

  • Study Plans (Both Are Covered Here for Simplicity)
    Your ‘Slingshot 16’ and ‘Slingshot 19’ Trimaran Free Study Plans (Both are Covered Here For Simplicity) …from Designer / Builder / Sometimes Sailor Frank Smoot (AKA ‘Trimaran Frank’) About The Boats: The ‘Slingshot 16’ is a 1-2 seater trimaran, and the ‘Slingshot 19’ is a 2-3 seater trimaran. Both boats been developed to sail in perfect balance. With the 2-seater setup, but boat can remain in ideal helm balance whether soloing or carrying a passenger, thanks to a unique sliding seat arrangement. You can also rig them both with several very different kinds of sail rigs, and with either folding or fixed amas. NOTE: The Slingshot 19 plans include full details to build both the folding akas and 19’ amas. NOTE: The basic Slingshot 16 plans include construction details for the standard 14’ cruising amas and one-piece (non-folding) akas. Supplementary plans are also available that include full construction details for the larger 16’ performance amas and also for folding akas for the Slingshot 16. NOTE: Plans for the 2-seater version of the Slingshot 16 are not yet available, but are in the works. About the speed of these two trimarans: You may not want to go 14 mph, but it’s nice to know your boat can safely do that. (It could probably do more, but somehow that seems fast enough for me.) You can choose among 5 different sail rigs, either stayed or freestanding (unstayed). And you can initially build the Slingshot 19 with fixed akas, then later convert to folding akas (for easy trailering) if you wish.
