  • Tips of the Trade
    Sail Handling and Neil Pryde Custom Fittings he following are some of the special Neil Pryde fittings which every boat owner should be Tfamiliar with. Genoa Sausage Bags Neil Pryde Race and Premier Series sails are supplied with genoa sausage bags as standard. These bags make repacking easier and quicker. The bags have 2 full-length zips on top of the bag which run forward and aft from the clew to the tack. Before you attempt to put the sail in the Figure 11 bag make sure both sliders are at one end of the bag. Then pack the sail inside and slide one zip from one end to the other. Do not take it off the end of the bag. You can then throw the bag around quite freely and it will not come undone. When you wish to hoist, place the bag on the foredeck and run the zipper off at the front. The whole zip will then break open freely and the sail will be in position on the foredeck ready for use. (figure 11) Dousing Sock The dousing sock can be used with either a asymmetric spinnaker or a regular spinnaker. To hoist the sail, attach the halyard to the head ring on the sail and attach the tack downhaul line to the tack ring. It should then be passed through a turning block on the deck near the bow, and then to a cleat or winch somewhere near the cockpit. The tack will initially fly approximately five feet above the deck, so allow this amount of slack in the line.

Glossary of Terms Halyards and cunninghams Halyards are lines used to pull the sails up and to adjust the position of the draft (sail camber, curvature Figure 1 or “fullness”) fore or aft in the sail. They don’t significantly alter whether the sail is more full or less full. More tension on the halyards brings the draft of the sail forward; less tension drops it back. (figure 1) Cunninghams are down haul lines for fine tuning luff tension after the halyard is tightened and cleated off.

  • The Aerojunk by Paul Mckay
    The Aerojunk by Paul McKay May I introduce the AeroJunk, a sail that looks like a standard Bermudan Rig but works like and is a Junk Sail? Some junk sails can look pretty strange and would not appeal to the average sailor. With this design I would hope to gather a few converts when they realise just how safe and easy it is to sail. The standard 7/8th Bermudan Rig shape means that only one halyard is needed and it keeps the main/jib balance at 68/32% for weather-cocking. What is unusual is that the design uses a separate jib and main sail for efficiency enclosed within simple-to-make wishbone battens. (Like a less complicated Split-sail Junk) The Sails Both sails are cut and sewn completely flat – no broad-seaming. It is the battens that produce the shape. There are a number of brass eyelets fitted to the sails but each one has a job to do. The Jib is bolted to the battens through the luff at each batten front. On the boom only, there is a sliding cross-rod in front of the mast. The jib foot/leech eyelet runs along this rod on each tack to prevent the jib lifting. The jib headboard is centred on a cross-rod in front of the mast on batten 5. The main is bolted through the leech at each batten. The mainsail luff is centred behind the mast on cross–rods spaced with pieces of plastic waterpipe. There is an additional eyelet approx 75mm behind the luff eyelet at The Aerojunk planform the boom and battens 1 & 2.

  • How to Rig a Cormorant
    HOW TO RIG A CORMORANT Page 1 of 6 How to Rig a Cormorant Instructions adapted from Cormorant Owner’s Handbook 1 Ensure that peak halyard, throat halyard and topping lift are attached to the mast as shown in Fig. 1. 2 Set-up the boat as level as possible, either on the ground or on a launching trolley/trailer with the bow head-to-wind. 3 Remove gaff, boom and any other loose items from under the foredeck which might obstruct the mast slot or deck socket. 4 Have a good look down the mast slot to view the mast socket. Forward of this socket is an inspection hatch to the buoyancy tank which should, of course, be closed tight! 5 Raise the mast to a vertical position alongside the boat and, having ensured that the boom gooseneck fitting faces aft, and using both hands, lift the mast foot over the deck and down through the mast slot so that it engages in the socket below the deck. Rock the mast a little to ensure that the foot has truly dropped home into the socket. (You might find it easier to stand on the foredeck to do this. EB). 6 Next, attach the boom to the mast by introducing the pin to the mast jaws as in Fig. 2, then attach the mainsheet assembly to the strop at the aft end of the boom, and also to the traveller on the mainsheet track as shown in Fig. 3. Lock the traveller centrally by screwing down the stops on the traveller hard against the traveller each side.

  • Part 5 – Masts and Rigging Making the Mast from Square Stock…
    Part 5 – Masts and rigging Making the mast from square stock… It is always best to use the same wood for your masts and spars as the rest of the project. A 3/8" x 3/8" square strip of cedar is being used. You could obviously replace this with a dowel of another wood already rounded off but the difference in wood texture and color would really stick out. Most of the mast, boom and gaff etc. will NOT be painted. Rounding off square stock is a good thing to learn if you have never done it before... ran a sanding stick across the flats I created. See below. Then drill the holes that will be needed for the sheaves which will be simulated on the mast later. There are three sets. It is easier to do this now while the strip is square or an octagon. See below. First, I used the template provided at the end of this chapter to line out the strip with a 7/10/7 ratio. Just transfer the tick marks for the two center lines every four of five inches down each side of the mast. Connect them by drawing 2 straight lines down the center of each side. This is what my mast looks like after I shaved off Using a 7/10/7 ratio will create a perfect octagon the corners. It’s ready for me to chock in my after the corners are shaved away. This is being hand drill and taper it. This will take a while to done to make it easier to turn this in a lathe or do and be sure you use a mask because it makes chocked in a hand drill.
