The Junk Rig Glossary (JRG) Version 20 APR 2016
The Junk Rig Glossary (JRG) Version 20 APR 2016 Welcome to the Junk Rig Glossary! The Junk Rig Glossary (JRG) is a Member Project of the Junk Rig Association, initiated by Bruce Weller who, as a then new member, found that he needed a junk 'dictionary’. The aim is to create a comprehensive and fully inclusive glossary of all terms pertaining to junk rig, its implementation and characteristics. It is intended to benefit all who are interested in junk rig, its history and on-going development. A goal of the JRG Project is to encourage a standard vocabulary to assist clarity of expression and understanding. Thus, where competing terms are in common use, one has generally been selected as standard (please see Glossary Conventions: Standard Versus Non-Standard Terms, below) This is in no way intended to impugn non-standard terms or those who favour them. Standard usage is voluntary, and such designations are wide open to review and change. Where possible, terminology established by Hasler and McLeod in Practical Junk Rig has been preferred. Where innovators have developed a planform and associated rigging, their terminology for innovative features is preferred. Otherwise, standards are educed, insofar as possible, from common usage in other publications and online discussion. Your participation in JRG content is warmly welcomed. Comments, suggestions and/or corrections may be submitted to [email protected], or via related fora. Thank you for using this resource!

Armed Sloop Welcome Crew Training Manual
HMAS WELCOME ARMED SLOOP WELCOME CREW TRAINING MANUAL Discovery Center ~ Great Lakes 13268 S. 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).

Cruising Sails: Mainsails by Carol Hasse (A Shorter Version of This Article Originally Appeared in Cruising World Magazine.)
Cruising Mainsails 1 Cruising Sails: Mainsails By Carol Hasse (A shorter version of this article originally appeared in Cruising World magazine.) We were night sailing through the coral strewn Bahamas, broad reaching at hull speed in uncomfortably rising seas and winds. Our course was set for tropical warmth and the adventures only sailors can experience. Somewhere between the exquisite Berry Islands and Nassau Harbor (though we may just as well have been somewhere between hell and high water with all the visuals of a coal bin), it was time to jibe. It had to be a controlled jibe of course; the 616 square foot mainsail of our 50’ gaff schooner was, indeed, a force to be reckoned with. Carefully easing the preventer that was secured to the aft end of our 500-pound 30-foot boom, we bore off downwind. Predictably and powerfully, the not much lighter (or shorter) gaff arced across the sky from windward to leeward. In the “split second” before the boom jibed over to join the gaff on our new tack, the mainsail ripped from leech to luff just above the clew reinforcing patch. With dispatch born of necessity, we tucked in a belated reef, neatly hiding the offending seam in the bunt of the sail. It wasn’t long before another jibe was called for, and despite the impeccable timing of our well-orchestrated crew, the mainsail was ripped again from leech to luff, this time along the seam above the reef clew reinforcing patch. It is with much embarrassment that I admit we committed this act a third time, ripping our mainsail above its second (and final) reef clew’s reinforcing patch—once more from leech to luff.

SPARS and STANDING RIGGING.' § L
Plate No. 20. CHAPTER III. SPARS AND STANDING RIGGING.' § l. MASTS. Lower masts in modern ships are usually QUilt up of steel plates stiffened in various ways by steel shapes. (Plate 20.) Built-up masts of wood are no longer used, although lower masts made of single pine sticks are· not uncommon in sailing ships of moderate size. Topmasts and topgallant masts are still made of wood, usually of pine. The details of masts are shown in Plates. 20 and 21. .The mast rests on a step, placed as low .as possible; usually on the keelson. At the lower e·nd is ·a tenon fitting·· into a m o.r ti s e at the step. Where the mast passes through the successive decks, timbers are built in from beam to beam, form ing p artn e r s ; the space between these and the mast being filled by tightly-fitting wedges. The masthead is smaller than the body of the mast, and at the shoulder, called the h o u n d s , where the reduction in size is made, heavy knees or b ibb s , are bolted on, widening . the shoulder and forming a secure support for the t res t I e trees ; stout fore and aft pieces which, in their turn, support the c r o s s - t r e e s , the t o p , the t o p m a s t , and the eyes of the lower rigging. The cross-trees are athwartship pieces crossing the trestle-trees forward and abaft the masthead, and forming the principal pa·rt of the framing of the to p.

Building the Cutter Sherbourne
Sails There are many arguments for adding or omitting the sails on a model ship. There is no right answer and I decided to have a combination of set and furled sails on my model of HM cutter Sherbourne in 1/64 scale to provide 'life' to a static subject. This article is an extract from a much longer work on super detailing the Caldercraft kit of Sherbourne. Please contact the author if you want to purchase a copy. Real sails were made from canvas cloths which in the Royal Navy in the 18th and 19th century were 2 feet wide. The cloths were laid next to each other and the seams were folded over and stitched with a double seam. Extra cloths were stitched over areas which were subject to heavy wear such as the corners of the sail and bands across the sail where the reef ropes were inserted. Around the edge of the sail was a bolt rope and a number of rope eyes known as cringles which were used to attach the running rigging to the sail. The bolt rope was stitched to the rear surface of a square sail and usually to the port side of a fore-and-aft sail. Varieties of fine cloth such as cotton lawn have been used for model sails reasonably successfully in large scales. A thread pitch of at least 200 threads per inch is needed but this is still far from true scale size and is equivalent to a canvas with threads which are over 6mm diameter. Any sewing methods for representing the seams are unsuitable in a small scale since the stitch sizes and weight of thread will be far too heavy.

The following Treatise on Sail-making was first pub lished in " The Elements and Practice of Rigging, Seamanship, Naval Tactics," &c. &c. a work in two volumes quarto. As an object of particular convenience and advan tage to Naval Artists, the then proprietor had been solicited to separate the arts there treated of, and to pub lish them in a smaller form. In compliance with this request, the work was re-published in four volumes octavo, with a separate volume of plates. The first edition of the Art of Sail-making was pro duced in the present form, and met with a favourable reception, from the merits of its correct delineation and clear description ; by these its utility was felt, and its value justly appreciated of greater import.
