  • Boats Built at Toledo, Ohio Including Monroe, Michigan
    Boats Built at Toledo, Ohio Including Monroe, Michigan A Comprehensive Listing of the Vessels Built from Schooners to Steamers from 1810 to the Present Written and Compiled by: Matthew J. Weisman and Paula Shorf National Museum of the Great Lakes 1701 Front Street, Toledo, Ohio 43605 Welcome, The Great Lakes are not only the most important natural resource in the world, they represent thousands of years of history. The lakes have dramatically impacted the social, economic and political history of the North American continent. The National Museum of the Great Lakes tells the incredible story of our Great Lakes through over 300 genuine artifacts, a number of powerful audiovisual displays and 40 hands-on interactive exhibits including the Col. James M. Schoonmaker Museum Ship. The tales told here span hundreds of years, from the fur traders in the 1600s to the Underground Railroad operators in the 1800s, the rum runners in the 1900s, to the sailors on the thousand-footers sailing today. The theme of the Great Lakes as a Powerful Force runs through all of these stories and will create a lifelong interest in all who visit from 5 – 95 years old. Toledo and the surrounding area are full of early American History and great places to visit. The Battle of Fallen Timbers, the War of 1812, Fort Meigs and the early shipbuilding cities of Perrysburg and Maumee promise to please those who have an interest in local history. A visit to the world-class Toledo Art Museum, the fine dining along the river, with brew pubs and the world famous Tony Packo’s restaurant, will make for a great visit.

  • May/June 1986 800 BOIT Pennsylvania
    WHY REGISTER NON POWERED BOATS? page 26 May/June 1986 800 BOIT Pennsylvania The Keystone State's Official Boating Magazine Recently I received a call from a large city agency advising that it was considering charging a fee to launch from its boat ramp. The fee discussed was $3 to $5 per launch. A county park system that operates a small lake charges $5 per year to launch — $7.50 if you're not a county resident. For the current annual fee of $4 to $6 if your boat is 16 feet or over, you can launch at some 190 Fish Commission ramps and countless other ramps owned or operated by state and local agencies. For owners of unpowered boats, you can launch free ($5 launch permit for state park ramps). In addition, you get a bit of boating safety education, the protection of the law, and some pretty good representation in Harrisburg. Sounds like a lot of bang for the buck. All these services for the cost of a small registration fee, of course, is not entirely true. The state marine fuel tax and the HOUSE BILL 2157 federal Wallop/ Breaux money, derived primarily from the federal marine fuel tax, provide considerable income to the Boat Fund. These three sources — boat registration fees, state marine fuel tax, and federal marine fuel tax — provide almost all the Boat Fund income. Note that all the income is derived from motorboats, and because the larger boats use more fuel, the larger the boat the greater the contribution. House bill 2157 has been introduced and is now wending its way through the legislative system.

  • June 2021 Mainsheet
    May 2021 Commodore’s Message PORTRAIT OF A PRAIRIE SAILOR The handsome young fellow in this photo is my father, Harry Stroppel. This photo was taken in 1962, when he was 29 years old. The photo appeared in the Calgary Herald under a headline that read "Prairie Sailor". The civic government in Calgary had very recently approved recreational boating at Glenmore Lake in southwestern Calgary. That boat is a Scorpion class dinghy which he built himself. I was six years old but I still remember the beautiful varnished mahogany decks, the white side decks, and the navy blue hull. The Scorpion is a fine little boat, a sort of a hard-chined version of a 420. They are still a keen racing class in Great Britain. In the 1960's you could not buy a racing sailboat in Western Canada. You sent overseas for paper plans. Then you went to the lumber yard for marine plywood, timber, fastenings and paint. The spars were carved out of Sitka spruce. On this boat my father splurged (for the first time I think) on professionally sewn sails from the UK. Then we went racing. My contribution was to sit on the leeward side in light weather and drag my hands in the water because it felt so good..until my father caught me. Over the years our family and our neighbours the Swain family built a Tern (plans from Popular Mechanics), two Scorpions, and three Fireball dinghies. Almost sixty years later, people are still deriving great pleasure from racing neat little sailboats. Dad passed his love of sailing down to various members of my family.

  • Environmentally Sensitive Areas Guidance Document
    New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection Bureau of Release Prevention ENVIRONMENTALLY SENSITIVE AREAS GUIDANCE DOCUMENT Revised October 2017 Introduction This guidance on environmentally sensitive areas is intended for use as a reference and a guide when gathering information to be used in preparing the topographical maps for Discharge Prevention, Containment and Countermeasure (DPCC), and Discharge Cleanup and Removal (DCR) Plans. It gathers in one place all the citations listed in N.J.A.C. 7:1E-1.8, which establishes the definition of environmentally sensitive areas (ESA) for the purpose of developing the DPCC/DCR plan. The areas described in this document are by no means the only ESA in New Jersey, but represent those most likely to be adversely affected by a discharge of a hazardous substance. When used in conjunction with the requirements of N.J.A.C. 7:1E-4.10, Mapping criteria, it will prove useful in preparing the topographical maps and the offsite response measures that are required as part of the DCR plan. Additional information concerning the certification of ESA information is available in A Guide to the Preparation of Discharge Prevention, Containment and Countermeasure (DPCC) and Discharge Cleanup and Removal (DCR) Plans and Plan Renewals, available on the Bureau of Release Prevention website at http://www.nj.gov/dep/enforcement/dp/dpdown.htm. N.J.A.C. 7:1E-4.2(b)9 requires that topographical maps be included in the DPCC plan, while N.J.A.C. 7:1E-4.10(d) requires that these maps cover all surrounding areas which could be affected by a discharge from the facility, including ESA.

  • The Scorpion Dinghy – the First Fifty Years
    The Scorpion dinghy – the first fifty years Introduction The Scorpion is a lightweight, high performance, non-trapeze two person racing dinghy. Its adjustable rig enables sailing in nearly all weathers by crews of all weights, ages and experiences. The Scorpion was originally designed for launch and recovery through Cornish surf. It is 14ft long with a hard chine and planing hull and a symmetric spinnaker. It is built to strict class rules whilst rig controls and cockpit layout are left to personal choice. The ability to adjust the rig whilst sailing means that the Scorpion can be raced in most conditions. Its lightweight hull (81kg) gives it good performance and easy handling ashore. The ‘Scorpion’ was designed by Taprell Dorling in 1959. The prototype was launched at Porthpean Sailing Club in St Austell Bay in 1960. Its popularity was immediate and by its 50th anniversary over 2000, mostly wooden ‘Scorpions’, had been built. This is the history of the ‘Scorpion’ over that period. 1 Origins Taprell John Dorling was the proprietor of a small chandlery business, Collins Marine Equipment, which he ran from an office in the house of a friend, a Mr Churchouse in Barnes, West London. He had no intention of building them himself but instead granted licences to existing reputable boat builders, initially to Moores of Wroxham and Aln Boatyard at Alnmouth in Northumberland. In order to maintain standards, Dorling founded the Scorpion Class Association and incorporated into its constitution the requirement that professional boat builders should be licensed to build Scorpions on payment of a designer’s royalty to Taprell.
