Our Family and members had a wonder- ful time exploring Sucia Island, Stuart Island, Victoria BC, San Juan Island and Lummi Is- land. We got to see Bald Eagles, Orcas, Dol- phins and Harbor Seals. We went hiking and saw fossils and found sea shells. We tried to fish but had no luck in that area. The last evening we had a BBQ and bonfire on Lummi Island, which was definitely one of the high- lights of the trip for us. We are hosting the Catalina rendezvous again this year. The rendezvous is scheduled to start on Saturday, July 21. In the evening it will be bring your own BBQ and there will be a band for the event. The races series is going well this year.

In a house you’ll find a table, chair, bed, cupboard, bookcase, rafter, gable, and joist. But aboard a ship in the great age of sail you’d hear the terms gooseneck, crow’s nest, crowfoot, duck, cat, cathead, cat hole, wild- cat, catboat, cat-rig, catwalk, cat-o-nine-tails, ratlines, horse, dead horse, Flemish horse, saddle, cow hitch (which is the same thing as a lark’s head), sheepshank, leg-o’-mutton, jackass, camel, horns, bridle, bullnose, bullrope, bull’s eye, cockpit, cockbill, cockboat, fox, dog, doghouse, dog vane, dog watch, and hounds. An old boat can lose its shape and become “hogged,” and “pig-ballast” was molded in forms called “sows.” A “Donkey’s breakfast” was the term the old seamen used to describe their straw mattress. The “manger” is the space immediately inboard of the hawse pipes. Then there’s the monkey fist, monkey jack- et, monkey’s blood, monkey bridge, monkey chain, and monkey rail. Of course, not everything on a boat has a metaphorical name; we have masts and cleats and lines. Yet, when the old sailors sought a colorful moniker for a piece of gear, they looked to familiar and friendly ani- mals. It is notable that there is a scarcity of sea creatures among these names. We do have a dolphin-striker, and a pelican hook, and a fish-plate, but no shark-widgets; and the crow’s nest is named after a land bird, not a gull or albatross. We also don’t see fearsome animals like wolves and tigers represented. Humans evolved on land as hunter/gatherers and then farmers, and until this century the majority of the people of the world situated themselves in rural areas, not cities. Before then, most people lived and worked in the countryside, in close, everyday contact with the animal kingdom, both domestic and wild. But long ago, at least 50,000 years in fact, humans took to the sea. We are challenged to comprehend the courage and imagination required to be the first to sail away from the sight of land, hearth, and home, into that alien environment, removed from everything recognizable. Did the homesick sailor, now in a fear- some, barren wasteland far from the familiar things of life, construct the mental furniture of his surround- ings out of his companions—the comforting creatures humans have known forever—in the unconscious ef- fort to place himself at home? Well, maybe he did. More Experience. 4 Advanced Coastal Cruising Class (ASA 106), June 22 – 24, 2012, by Brad Call On Friday morning I met my instructor, Bill Yawn and my two fellow students, Mary Ann Paulazzo and Daniel Merle. Bill is a long time instructor at Tradewinds and he also serves in the Coast Guard Auxiliary. He mentioned that participation in the CG auxiliary comes with many beneficial free training opportunities. He was certainly a wealth of nautical information! Mary Ann Paulazzo and her husband Cliff own a nicely equipped cruis- ing yacht named “Carola” (Young Sun 37). She and her husband hope to “dip their toe” into the cruising world this August with a trip down to the Channel Islands, a 3 week journey there and back. Daniel Merle and his wife own a Leopard 46 catamaran that they have placed in charter with Moorings in Mexico. Their boat is named “Balajan” which is “my little child in Armenian. One of the benefits of placing a boat in charter with Moorings is the ability to use other Moorings boats around the world. They recently took advantage of this benefit and took friends to sail off the Croatian coast. After meeting each other, Bill had us haul our gear and food down to the boat for the checkout. For this class we were using the club’s Bavaria 42 named “My Density.” The name has an interesting origin that involves the owners meeting in a chemistry class during college. In any event, the Bavaria 42 is a very nice boat. It has a master suite with head forward. There are two aft cabins, a galley, head, and large dining area. The cockpit is quite spacious and it has dual helm stations. It is powered by a Volvo diesel with a sail drive instead of the typical drive shaft and propeller. For this class a large emergency raft occupied the after part of the cockpit. We spent about 3 hours checking over the boat, filling the tank with fresh water, and stowing our gear. Bill briefed us on our itinerary and how he would conduct the class. Each student would spend one hour as helmsman, then crewperson, and finally as navigator.

West Bayshore Drive Traverse City, Michigan 49684 231-946-2647 [email protected] (c) Maritime Heritage Alliance 2011 1 1770's WELCOME History of the 1770's British Armed Sloop, WELCOME About mid 1700’s John Askin came over from Ireland to fight for the British in the American Colonies during the French and Indian War (in Europe known as the Seven Years War). 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).

In with this program. any event, particularly if watches are being set, it becomes imperative that everyone have a good understanding of all lines and maneuvers the ship may be asked to perform. 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. As a crewmember you have as much responsibility for the safe running of these vessels as any member of the crew, including the ship’s officers. 1. When laying aloft, crewmembers should always climb and descend on the weather side of the shrouds and the bowsprit.

Department of The University of British Columbia 1956 Main Mall Vancouver, Canada V6T 1Y3 DE-6(3/81) ii ABSTRACT Voyages of discovery could not be entertained until the advent of three-masted ships. Single-sailed ships were effective for voyages of short duration, undertaken with favourable winds. Ships with two masts could make long coastal voyages in the summer. Both these types had more or less severe limitations to sailing to windward. To sail any ship successfully in this mode it is necessary to be able to balance the sail plan accurately. This method of keeping course could not reach its full developemnt until more than two sails were available for manipulation.
