Lake Michigan SuRF Newsmagazine THE LONGEST FRESHWATER RACE ON EARTH The Supermac Race, an extension of the Chicago Yacht Club Race to Mackinac and a precursor to the Bell’s Beer Bayview Mackinac Race, wound up with 31 entrants, and after four withdrawals, 27 finishers. Among those finishers, it was the smaller boats that fared the best, just as they had in the “Chicago Mac” (which started on Lake Michigan on July 11). “Supermac racers are those that keep racing, without stopping, after their Chicago Mac finish (at Mackinac Island) to a Port Huron finish line, for a total of 500 nautical miles,” explained Supermac Co-Chair and Bell’s Beer Bayview Mackinac Chair Peter Wenzler. “The smaller boats started first in the Chicago Mac, but halfway through the race the fleet inverted and the big boats got ahead. However, the wind was such that the larger boats had to beat their way to the Supermac finish while the smaller boats got to run in 30 knots of breeze, so it became their race.” Peter and Christopher Thornton’s Volvo 70 Il Mostro crossed first followed by Rick Warner’s ORMA 60 Areté, and Bill Alcott's Equation. Winning Multhull Class was Jonathan Alvord’s Corsair F-31R Triceratops, while taking Monohull Classes 2, 3 and 4, respectively, were Bill Martin’s 70-foot Stripes, Gintaras Karaitis’s Schock 41 Quick Silver and Michael Leland’s Najad 332 Hope. The top three finishers in Class 3 (the smallest boats), were also the top-three overall. They were Hope, Tim Prophit’s Fast Tango, and David Keys’s C&C 35 Shamrock. Organizers were the Bayview Yacht Club, Chicago Yacht Club and Port Huron Yacht Club, who billed this as the longest fresh water race on earth. According to Wenzler, most of the boats were planning to compete in the Bayview Mackinac Race, so collectively, all three events have to be the most exciting 10 days of racing fun on the Great Lakes. MICHIGAN CITY'S HOPE TAKES 2015 SUPERMAC by Vik Warren Our boat is Hope, a very nice 33 cruiser built in Sweden ten years ago, and owned by Michael Leland, an orthopedic surgeon, who recently performed his 1000th anterior hip replacement. His original plan to only cruise the boat took a dive when he decided he wanted to win the Chicago Mackinac race cruising division. The first year got him a 4th place flag which fueled his desire to win it. He recruited Vik “Big Toe” to manage the boat. Vik has a motor sports background and has been part of teams which have won in F1, Indy car and prototype sports cars. He brought on board Mike “Moose” DeBone a free spirit master carpenter as bowman, navigator, helm. Add Fred “Trimming Fool” Bell who is one the best big boat trimmers, as core crew. With the help of Jack who is no longer sailing, they went on a tear, winning local PHRF races and port to ports as prep for the 2011 Cruising Mac which they won. A word about the Cruising Mac, which pretty much every racing sailor here dismisses as not really racing. It is the the fastest growing fleet in the Chicago Mac, and while there are some casual boats, it’s more competitive than you might think. Hope has a 4th, two 3rds and two 1sts. In 2014 Hope won Cruising 2 and beat out a 50 boat fleet to win Cruising Overall, and Michael decided he should stop racing and concentrate on prep for his long term plan to cross the Atlantic. Vik, Moose and Fred started to look for another boat they could help up its game. A week before they signed up on another boat, Chicago Yacht Club, Bayview Yacht Club & Port Huron Yacht Club announced they would run a 2015 Super Mac race, from Chicago to Port Huron. The core crew had a meeting with Michael and they decided to try and win it. It became the Hope final Farewell tour. As prep we raced in the Chicago-Michigan City-Chicago race, which is the oldest race on Lake Michigan, a 65 mile overnight. We finished 2nd in section

  • Convergent Evolution of Boats with Sails A
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Convergent Evolution of Boats with Sails A. Bejan1*, L. Ferber2 & S. Lorente3 This article unveils the geometric characteristics of boats with sails of many sizes, covering the range 102–105 kg. Data from one hundred boat models are collected and tabulated. The data show distinct trends of convergent evolution across the entire range of sizes, namely: (i) the proportionality between beam and draft, (ii) the proportionality between overall boat length and beam, and (iii) the proportionality between mast height and overall boat length. The review shows that the geometric aspect ratios (i)–(iii) are predictable from the physics of evolution toward architectures that ofer greater fow access through the medium. Nature impresses us with images, changes and tendencies that repeat themselves innumerable times even though “similar observations” are not identical to each other. In science, we recognize each ubiquitous tendency as a distinct phenomenon. Over the centuries, our predecessors have summarized each distinct phenomenon with its own law of physics, which then serves as a ‘frst principle’ in the edifce of science. A principle is a ‘frst principle’ when it cannot be deduced from other frst principles. Tis aspect of organization in science is illustrated by the evolution of thermodynamics to its current state1,2. For example, 150 years ago the transformation of potential energy into kinetic energy and the conservation of “caloric” were fused into one statement—the frst law of thermodynamics—which now serves as a frst-principle in physics. It was the same with another distinct tendency in nature: everything fows (by itself) from high to low.

  • SKEETA – Float Like a Butterfly Sting Like a Bee
    SKEETA – Float like a Butterfly sting like a Bee Dynamic development of a new market Foiling dinghies have become well established in the last 15 years, since the advent of flying Moth. The foiling catamarans in the America's Cup provided additional impetus from 2013 onwards. Foiling - this unique sailing experience was previously reserved for only a few, mostly pro-sailors. Sailing skills, technical and financial requirements were high - usually too high. This situation is currently changing. Significantly and faster than generally assumed. Scow-Shape rediscovered Today the Scow shape is experiencing an unexpected comeback, not only in small boats. The hull of the SKEETA is based on the proven Australian Moth class Scow shapes. It has been optimised step by step to meet the requirements for foiling. No snapshot The SKEETA is the latest foiling dinghy of the 3rd generation, designed, built, tested and made ready for production by an Australian duo that has been designing Moths with or without foils for many years. An exchange of ideas and opinions with QUANTBOATS took place during the last years. Quite a few wishes and requirements on the part of QUANTBOATS could be taken into account. SKEETA fits perfectly with our philosophy today. Fun throughout the entire wind range Like all our boats, the SKEETA is characterized by good-natured behaviour and excellent all-round characteristics. There is no need to forego performance - on the contrary. This includes perfect foiling behaviour in the lower to medium wind range as well as comfortable, controlled and fast sailing in very light or very strong winds.
