Please help us help General Manager, FHM you. 1 Marina Manager Minutes As we head into 2014 - a brand new year with new goals, resolutions and chal- lenges - I can't help but shake my head in amazement at how quickly the last 12 months have flown by. Aside from the simple fact that time inevitably speeds up as we grow older, the astounding technological advances we've seen in the last decade or so have only served to make the world pass by at an even faster rate. Now, I'll be the first one to admit that I'm always on my smartphone, checking Facebook or shopping online for any number of my wallet-draining hobbies, but maybe we as a society are starting to lose just a little bit of the creativity, passion and social interaction that has defined us since our beginning. One thing that's seemingly gotten lost amongst the constant din of online banking, Tweeting and keeping up with the Kardashians is something that you may or may not re- member: your boat. You may recall lazy summer evenings, anchored up and sitting on the aft deck during a gorgeous Pacific Northwest sunset with a cold margarita and great company - starting to ring any bells? As someone who's been managing marinas on various bodies of water throughout the country for over nine years, the drastic shift of the boater's mindset away from the art of boating has been both surprising and disheartening. Ask yourself this: when's the last time that you loaded the boat up with steaks, cold beer, the kids and the family dog, pointed the bow northwest and just explored the Puget Sound? If you're like me and the vast majority of your fellow boat owners, it's been far too long. Chances are, adventures like this are exactly why you fell in love with boating in the first place (or at least the idea of undergoing such adventures...). So, amongst all of the new hopes and resolutions you've set for yourself this year, consider setting aside a couple of days to hit the pause button, hide the I-Phone and reintroduce yourself to an old friend. Trade your Facebook, Twitter and cable for fenders, tacking and companion- ways, if only for a weekend. Trust me, the Kardashians will be there waiting for you when you get back. Cheers, Ian W.

Once melted, sauté 2 Recalling last month's discussion on the need to routinely inspect our shore power cords and their connections let's this month touch on another of the things we often forget about for long periods of time, the batteries. Out of sight out of mind is probably the main contributing factor in failing to take a look at these rascals. That and that it often involves removing either a hatch or cover of some kind that is under a step or worse, a storage cabinet or locker full of this and that's. Most of us are using the most common of batteries, the flooded cell. It's easy to see the batteries on our boat's much the same as we do those in our vehicles but aside from one that is used only for engine starting, the deep cycle variety that keep most lights, refrigeration units, nav electronics etc. working on a boat need to be inspected and maintained more often. When was the last time you checked the fluid levels on your house battery(s)? The repeated discharge and recharge cycles will tend to boil off the fluid much quicker then what you would see on a starter battery. Is there any of that pesky corrosion build-up at the terminals? These two simple tasks at the very least can help you to get both the full life from the battery and keeps the whole system functioning at its best. Use distilled water when topping off the cells. Clean up those terminals and if the condition continues it’s a sign that something is going on that requires additional investigation. As inconvenient as these task can sometimes be, the truth is they seldom take little more than a few minutes and can save time and money in the long run as well as peace of mind. 'til next month, safe and happy boating. Scottie M. Operations Manager Did you know there is an Elliot Bay Yacht Sales branch right next door to the marina office? Well now you know. Debbie Yeend with Elliott Bay Yacht Sales has been around boats her whole life. She grew up in Eastern Washington spending every open weekend at the river with her family and their ski boat. After college she was introduced to sailing in the Seattle area, fell in love with it and soon became an avid racer splitting her time on the sound and Lake Washington! She met her husband, Jon Thompson, after a race at the CYC clubhouse in the mid 80's and they have been racing and cruising together ever since. They have 2 daughters who grew up sailing and love spending time on their Cal 33 and Cal 20. Debbie loves to network with boating friends to find the right boat for her customers.

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).

(May 2005) Alisa Michele Steere, B.A., Texas A&M University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. C. Wayne Smith A mixture of shipbuilding, architecture, and art went into producing the wooden decorative work aboard ships of all nations from around the late 1500s until the advent of steam and the steel ship in the late 19th century. The leading humanists and artists in each country were called upon to draw up the iconographic plan for a ship’s ornamentation and to ensure that the work was done according to the ruler’s instructions. By looking through previous research, admiralty records, archaeological examples, and contemporary ship models, the progression of this maritime art form can be followed.

  • Unit 2 SHIPS and SHIP TERMS
    Unit 2 SHIPS AND SHIP TERMS STRUCTURAL MEMBERS OF A SHIP Basic terms shell plating compartment strake stem keel frame deck beam tank top bracket floor girder stringer buoyancy stern post strength hull stability angle bar bulkhead stiffener stringer web sheer strake rudder post The forward end of the ship is called the bow, the after end is the stern, and halfway between the two is amidships. The beam of the ship is the distance between the two ship's sides. The hull or the body of the ship includes the outer skin or shell, and all the members (konstrukcijski elementi) and parts which hold this shell together, divide it into compartments and give it strength and rigidity. Three basic requirements of ships are the ability to float (buoyancy), the ability to stay together (strength), and the ability to stay right side up (stability). The shell plating (oplata) is the outer skin of the ship and is made up of a great many steel plates fastened together by welding. Each horizontal row of plating is called a strake (voj). Strakes are usually lettered A-B-C-D, etc., beginning with the row next to the keel (kobilica). This strake is called the garboard strake (dokobilični voj) while the top strake is called the sheer strake (uzvojni voj). The two essentials of the shell are watertightness and strength. The flat keel of a ship is the row at the bottom of the ship extending from the bow to the stern along the centreline. Decks, corresponding to the floors of a house, are flat sections of steel plates.

These vessels have the worst air emissions within the U.S. bulk carrier fleet and are currently grandfathered relative to EPA requirements. The goal of this research is to develop conceptual designs for the conversion of these vessels to LNG fuel using gas engines to achieve very low emissions and significantly reduced fuel consumption and cost.
