Smooth the surfaces of the steps with sandpaper. D Temporarily place the gun port frames without glue (arrows), then glue the steps up the side of the hull, as shown. Repeat for the other side. E Remove the gun port frames from the ports, then paint the outside of the hull with the same stain you have used on the rest of the model. 622 SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™ F Paint the raised strakes black, as shown. G Cut four 38mm lengths of 3 x 3mm wooden strip, and glue them into the holes fore and aft of the mast support. H Ø 1mm Cut two 25mm lengths of 2 x 4mm wooden strip; these will become the pin rails. Cut away two 1 x 3mm sections to fit around the pieces cut in the previous 2 x 4 x 25mm step, then drill four 1mm holes in the middle of the two strips. Sand the two pin rails smooth, then glue them fore and aft of the uprights. 623 SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™ I Retrieve the rail from Stage 121 and sand it smooth. Glue three columns (Stage 89) to the rail, one in the centre and one at either end (inset). Then glue another two in between them, as shown. J Stain the rail and columns, and then glue them at the edge of the deck. Glue belaying pins into the holes in the pin rails (arrowed). K The photo shows how the assembly should look at this stage.

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).

    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

    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.
