Winch with synthetic rope Not recommended for plough usage •Winch with steel wire •Multi-Mount winch for use as a plough blade lift www.yamaha-motor.eu Steel vs. synthetic winch rope. WARN Vantage and ProVantage winches are available with either steel rope or synthetic rope. But which one is right for you? Let’s look at some of the features and benefits of both. Steel rope is extremely durable, abrasion resistant, and is good for utility applications where the line may contact objects like stumps, rocks, and other things that rub against the rope. Of course it’s still a good choice for vehicle recovery, and has been used for decades by enthusiasts and workers alike. However, steel rope is heavier and less flexible than synthetic line. Steel rope is also less expensive than synthetic rope. Synthetic rope is strong, lightweight, easy to handle, and it’ll even float on water making it great for vehicle recovery. Synthetic rope is more prone to damage by abrasion and requires the use of the included abrasion sleeve when the rope comes into contact with an object. Additionally, synthetic rope should be inspected regularly for ultraviolet (UV) wear and is more expensive than steel rope. However, it's a great choice for those who are looking to keep weight down, push the limits with their vehicle, and use the winch frequently www.yamaha-motor.eu Price and availability information Model Part number Part name SRP ex Vat in € Availability NEW YME887000000 PROPIVOT PLOUGH 540,74 In stock NEW YME719800000 NEOPRENE WINCH COVER 43,55 In stock NEW YME902880000 WIRELESS CONTROL KIT 187,43 In stock NEW YME852430000 PLOUGH HD MOUNTING 56,62 In stock NEW YME857420000 PLOUGH SLACK CONTROL 97,61 In stock NEW YME859500000 PLOUGH LIMIT CONTROL 77,45 In stock NEW YME845260000 PRO VANTAGE PLOUGH PULLEY 62,68 In stock NEW YME889150000 WINCHING ACCESSORY KIT 115,32 In stock NEW YME889980000 SCHACKLE 17,29 In stock NEW YME888980000 SNATCH BLOCK 57,66 In stock NEW YME690690000 SYNTHETIC ROPE EXTENSION CORD 165,14 In stock NEW YME895670000 HAWSE FAIRLEAD V2000 50,46 In stock NEW YME895630000 SYNTHETIC ROPE V2000 89,79 In stock existing YMD721280000 SYNTHETIC ROPE 2.5 AND 3.0 WIN 135,31 In stock existing YMD846000000 PROVANTAGE PLOUGH LIFT 325,22 In stock existing YMD685600000 PLOUGH LIFT ROPE (2,4 MTR) 47,19 In stock existing YMD676790000 PLOUGH MARKERS 28,72 In stock Please be advised that most of the pictures are available on ID net asap www.yamaha-motor.eu Check infonet for the most update cross reference file for the right mounting kit and/or plough for the right ATV / Side x Side (below is a print screen) www.yamaha-motor.eu Warranty Claim Handling Warn products ATV Yamaha has chosen to work with a reliable partners Like Warn.

  • Sailing Course Materials Overview
    SAILING COURSE MATERIALS OVERVIEW INTRODUCTION The NCSC has an unusual ownership arrangement -- almost unique in the USA. You sail a boat jointly owned by all members of the club. The club thus has an interest in how you sail. We don't want you to crack up our boats. The club is also concerned about your safety. We have a good reputation as competent, safe sailors. We don't want you to spoil that record. Before we started this training course we had many incidents. Some examples: Ran aground in New Jersey. Stuck in the mud. Another grounding; broke the tiller. Two boats collided under the bridge. One demasted. Boats often stalled in foul current, and had to be towed in. Since we started the course the number of incidents has been significantly reduced. SAILING COURSE ARRANGEMENT This is only an elementary course in sailing. There is much to learn. We give you enough so that you can sail safely near New Castle. Sailing instruction is also provided during the sailing season on Saturdays and Sundays without appointment and in the week by appointment. This instruction is done by skippers who have agreed to be available at these times to instruct any unkeyed member who desires instruction. CHECK-OUT PROCEDURE When you "check-out" we give you a key to the sail house, and you are then free to sail at any time. No reservation is needed. But you must know how to sail before you get that key. We start with a written examination, open book, that you take at home.

    DEDICATION is dedicated to the town of Friendship. His dedication to the town is what brought about the sloop races. Other men had the idea but it was Herald who brought it to fruition. None of the existing organizations or committees in the town wanted to tackle such a tremendous undertaking, so almost single-handedly, Herald set up a new organization to promote this tremendous idea. Thus the Friendship Sloop Society was born. The first year was difficult. It was not easy to solicit help because people thought it couldn't be done.

  • Tall Ships® 101
    August 10, 2005 IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Sheila Gonzales (310) 732-3506 TALL SHIPS® 101 Stats and facts about the international tall ships participating in TallShips®LA, August 11-14 SAN PEDRO, Calif. – Be informed for TallShips®LA, August 11-14. With historical knowledge, vessel stats and fun facts, you will be able to recognize the tall ships, identify their key features and tout a little trivia! Fifteen international tall ships are scheduled to participate in the TallShips®LA, maritime event. Visiting ships include the Argus, Bill of Rights, Californian, Mexico’s Cuauhtémoc, Exy Johnson, Antigua’s Kaisei, Lynx, R. Tucker Thompson of New Zealand, Pilgrim, Robert C. Seamans, Royaliste, Spirit of Dana Point, Swift of Ipswich, Talofa and Tole Mour. For most people, a tall ship is a sailing vessel with three or more masts and many sails, as seen in the bygone era of the Errol Flynn movies. A tall ship, by definition, is a sailing vessel whose masts are in segments, made up of several timbers in order to give strength, and to make each mast more manageable for partial removal and repairs. The nostalgic definition is more commonly used when referring to any sailing vessel that provides sail training and participates in events such as tall ship races. For classification and race settings, the International Sail Training Association divides tall ships into three classes and several sub classes according to the vessels, sparred length and rig. A rig is the configuration, shape and number of the spars, poles, and sails. For further clarification, sailing rigs are divided into two broad categories determined by the fore and aft rig in which triangular shaped sails lie along the same direction as -more- TALL SHIPS 101 2-2-2 the ship's length, or the square rig which has squared or rectangular shaped sails attached to poles, which are perpendicular to (or go across) the vertical mast.

READING The Bread Lesson My dad has watermelon-size biceps, a neck like an inner tube, and enormous, muscular hands that make him seem like he’s always wearing baseball mitts. He doesn’t seem like the kind of guy who would bake great bread, but he is and he does. Every Saturday he puts on his chef’s apron, rolls up his sleeves, breaks out a bag of flour, and produces two loaves of homemade bread. When he’s done, the whole house smells delicious, and I can’t wait for a hot slice smothered with yellow, melting butter. The rest of the week, Dad is a car mechanic, which involves lots of heavy lifting, tightening, unscrewing, shoving, shaking, yanking, and banging. People tend to think of their cars as metallic members of the family, so there’s lots of pressure on Dad to make sure pumps pump, steering steers, and brakes brake. The shop where Dad works is understaffed, so he’s under a lot of stress. Sometimes I worry he’s going to overheat and blow a gasket or something, like some old car.

  • Commodore Sailing Across Atlantic
    Report from Guy Davison our Commodore about his latest adventure sailing across the Atlantic. On ARC Rally 2019 What is the ARC Rally? The ARC (Atlantic Rally for Cruisers) was first conceived in 1986. It started out as a safe way to cross the Atlantic in the company of other yachts. Since then it has grown, turned into more of a race, become more and more competitive and attracted bigger and faster yachts. Now over 200 yachts take part in it each year. The ARC is a rally of suitable yachts sailing from Las Palmas in the Canaries to St Lucia in the eastern Caribbean, so going West across the whole Atlantic. The Event organisers, World Sailing, are wonderful folk with boat safety and sailor nurturing at their heart, but also great hosts with a celebration of sailing being at the centre of their activities. Getting Involved Since Guy retired from paid work, he now works for free, his decision making has been somewhat suspect, so when he was approached by two young Itchenor based firefly sailors to join them sailing across the Atlantic, he agreed, though after a few weeks of consideration. Guy's nature is risk averse and just looking up the boat's rigging gave him a nauseous feeling, rather like when up the long ladder at home cleaning the gutters. But the idea had appeal, though two of the crew, Alice and Arthur aged 6 and 8 gave food for thought! So the crew was to be 4 adults and 2 youngsters, though both were given buoyancy aids at their christenings! Yacht Moody 47 On to the yacht itself, Alisara's a Moody 47, moulded in Plymouth and finished off in Southampton which looked splendid with months of refurbishment done by Douglas and Hermione Pattison, two fun loving class stalwarts, but with Douglas also having loads of international 14 campaigning under his belt.
