    Design of the Courageous Mast Designers’ Forum By Arvel Gentry YACHTING Magazine, February 1975 (Arvel Gentry is a research aerodynamicist at the Douglas Aircraft Co., in Long Beach, Cal., and has long had a special fascination for sailboat aerodynamics, a subject with which he has had extensive practical experience on his successful Ranger 23 “Kittiwake.” His non-sailing weekends are spent with such December 1999 design projects as a sailing performance recorder for the new 79' ketch “Kialoa III” and mast shapes for ocean racers and 12-meters. Here he describes the work behind the mast section on the 1974 America's cup defender. Eds.) The America's Cup is defended and challenged by men sailing the most advanced boats afloat, and no 12-Meter skipper would want to go to the starting line with anything but the fastest boat and best equipment that designers and builders can produce. Since very small differences in boatspeed can mean the margin between victory and defeat, every part of the boat (hull, rigging, and sails) is reviewed and studied for any possible improvement. Much was written last summer and fall about hull shape (with the disappointment of the Chance-designed Mariner) and about sails (the Kevlar mainsails and the Hood versus North competition). Although other design Figure 2. Aluminum shapes used to test new spar designs on the author’s Ranger 23 (foreground) and on an Ericson 46 features were less spectacular and less obvious, they were (background). The restrictive 12-Meter rule prohibits any nonetheless important. A case in point was the new mast radical developments, as the similarity of these shapes section shapes that appeared on both the challenger, indicates.

  • SEAFARING WOMEN: an Investigation of Material Culture for Potential Archaeological Diagnostics of Women on Nineteenth-Century Sailing Ships
    SEAFARING WOMEN: An Investigation of Material Culture for Potential Archaeological Diagnostics of Women on Nineteenth-Century Sailing Ships by R. Laurel Seaborn April, 2014 Director of Thesis/Dissertation: Dr. Lynn Harris Major Department: Department of History, Program in Maritime Studies ABSTRACT During the 19th century, women went to sea on sailing ships. Wives and family accompanied captains on their voyages from New England. They wrote journals and letters that detailed their life on board, adventures in foreign ports, and feelings of separation from family left behind. Although the women kept separate from the sailors as class and social status dictated, they contributed as nannies, nurses and navigators when required. Examination of the historical documents, ship cabin plans, and photos of those interiors, as well as looking at surviving ships, such as the whaleship Charles W. Morgan, provided evidence of the objects women brought and used on board. The investigation from a gendered perspective of the extant material culture, and shipwreck site reports laid the groundwork for finding potential archaeological diagnostics of women living on board.

  • Origin of the Rosicrucian Society (Paper Presented and Read at the First Annual Convocation of Delaware College, S
    Origin of The Rosicrucian Society (Paper presented and read at the First Annual Convocation of Delaware College, S. R. I. C. F., June 26, 1956 by R. W. Charles E. Green, VIII) The secret society of the Rosicrucians was one of the great mysteries of medieval days. On August 17, 1586, Johann Valentin Andrea was born at Harrenberg, a small town in what was afterwards the Kingdom of Wurtemburg. After a studious youth, during which he became possessed of a more than moderate share of learning, he departed in 1610 on a pilgrimage through Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy and France. He had little money, but an indomitable desire for the acquisition of knowledge. Returning home in 1614, he embraced the clerical profession. In 1634 he was a Protestant prelate of the Duchy of Brunswick. He died June 27, 1654 at the age of 68 years. Andrea was a man of high moral character and a very copious writer. A philanthropist from his earliest life, he sought to carry his plans of benevolence into active operation. Actuated by the spirit of philanthropy he viewed with deep regret the corruptions of the times and sought to devise some plan by which the conditions of his fellow-men might be ameliorated. With this idea in mind he invoked the assistance of fiction and wrote in 1615, "Fama Fraternitatis Rosae Crucis" or the "Report of the Rosicrucian Brotherhood." It was published anonymously and for but one purpose -- that of discovering by the character of its reception who were the true lovers of wisdom and philanthropy and of inducing them to come forward and take part in an active organization.

  • ROSICRUCIANISM the Fraternity of the Rose Cross
    ROSICRUCIANISM The Fraternity of the Rose Cross Council of Nine Muses February 10, 2007 Presented by William B. Brunk Sovereign Master Nine Muses Council No. 13 A cursory glance at the question of, “What is Rosicrucianism?” quickly leads one to be struck at how complex the subject really is. For, as much as Freemasonry has been known over the years as a secretive order, the Rosicrucian Order appears to be one much more secretive and mysterious. Dating from as early as the 15th century, it is a legendary and secretive order generally associated with the symbol of the Rose Cross, also found in certain rituals beyond “Craft” or “Blue Lodge” Masonry. The Rosicrucian movement first officially surfaced in 1614 in Cassel, Germany, with the publication of Fama Fraternitatis, des Loblichen Ordens des Rosenkreutzes (The Declaration of the Worthy Order of the Rosy Cross). The name “Rosicrucian” is thought to be derived from the symbol, a combination of a single rose upon a passion cross. Legend holds that the order was initiated with one Christian Rosenkreuz, born in 1378 in Germany. He was of good birth, but, being poor, was compelled to enter a monastery at a very early period of his life. At the age of one hundred years, he started with one of the monks on a pilgrimage to the Holy Sepulcher. He visited Damascus, Egypt, and Morocco, where he studied under the masters of the occult arts. Once he crossed over into Spain, however, his reception was not a terribly warm one and he determined to return to Germany to provide his own countrymen with the benefit of his studies and knowledge, and to establish a society for the cultivation of the sciences which he had studied during his travels.
