The first leg is the St Helena Cup, followed by two very innovative courses the following weekend featuring optional simultaneous starts at either north or south of the river. The northern and southern courses overlap so both fleets will cross paths several times. The concept of these courses is the brainchild of Past Commodore Richard Jenkins and promises to be a lot of fun. The final weekend of the Spring Series will include the MCC triangles on Sunday the 23rd October. For the cruisers, THERE ARE SHORTENED COURSES, so find a crew and come sailing with the race fleet! OMR VIDEO The edited video of the OMR Review Committee information meeting is finally completed and is now available on the MYCQ website. Thanks to Sean for capturing the essence of the meeting, but a big thanks also to the OMR Committee members Alasdair Noble, Mike Hodges and Geoff Cruse for their easily understood presentation detailing the amendments to the OMR Rule.

Harbour Business Forum On-Site Liaison: Paul Zimmerman, Convener of Designing Hong Kong Harbour District Submitted by: Brian Berard Eric Rosendahl Jarrad Fallon Lucas Scotta Santiago Lora Alexander Wong Alexander Muir Becky Yang Submitted to: Project Advisor: Creighton Peet, WPI Professor Project Co-advisor: Andrew Klein, WPI Assistant Professor Project Co-advisor: Kent Rissmiller, WPI Professor Abstract Victoria Harbour is one of Hong Kong‟s greatest assets; however, the balance between recreational and commercial uses of the harbour favours commercial uses. Our report, prepared for Designing Hong Kong Ltd., examines this imbalance from the marine perspective. We audited the 50km of waterfront twice and conducted interviews with major stakeholders to assess necessary improvements to land/water interfaces and to provide recommendations on improvements to the land/water interfaces with the goal of making Victoria Harbour a truly “living” harbour. ii Acknowledgements Our team would like to thank the many people that helped us over the course of this project. First, we would like to thank our sponsor, Paul Zimmerman, for his help and dedication throughout our project and for providing all of the resources and contacts that we required.

  • Paysage Multicoques
    Paysage Multicoques Le multicoque a connu et connaît un développement important de l’école de voile à la coupe de l’América : les parkings des clubs sont majoritairement composés de multicoques et les offres de pratique sont très variées : stages, cours particuliers, locations… L’offre en matière de compétition est également très variée : Classe A, Dart 18, Hobie-Cat 16, Tyka, SL15,5, SL16, Formule 18 ou Intersérie catamaran. « One design class » (la majorité) ou « developpment class » (une minorité) courant en « classe » ou en intersérie dans le cadre de la SCHRS1: il y en a pour tous les goûts. Les circuits professionnels se sont mis en place avec les extreme series en Extreme 40, en décision 35 ; le tour de France à la voile a élu le trimaran Diam 24 et les circuits pro ou quasi pro en GC32 et Flying Phantom se développent…le GC32 remplaçant même l’ « antique » archimédien Extrem40 pour les extreme series!!!

  • Design & Performance of a Wind and Solar-Powered Autonomous Surface Vehicle
    DESIGN & PERFORMANCE OF A WIND AND SOLAR-POWERED AUTONOMOUS SURFACE VEHICLE by Patrick Forde Rynne A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of The College of Computer Science and Engineering in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science Florida Atlantic University Boca Raton, Florida December 2008 ABSTRACT Author: Patrick Forde Rynne Title: Design & Performance of a Wind and Solar-Powered Autonomous Surface Vehicle Thesis Advisor: Dr. Karl von Ellenrieder Degree: Master of Science Year: 2008 The primary objective of this research is the development a wind and solar- powered autonomous surface vehicle (WASP) for oceanographic measurements. This thesis presents the general design scheme, detailed aerodynamic and hydrodynamic aspects, sailing performance theory, and dynamic performance validation measurements obtained from a series of experiments. The WASP consists of a 4.2 meter long sailboat hull, a low-Reynolds number composite wing, a 2000 Watt-hour battery reservoir, a system of control actuators, a control system running on an embedded microprocessor, a suite of oceanographic sensors, and power regeneration from solar energy. The vehicle has a maximum speed of five knots and weighs approximately 350 kilograms. Results from four oceanographic missions that were conducted in the Port Everglades Intracoastal Waterway in Dania Beach Florida are presented. Water temperature, salinity and oxidation-reduction measurements recorded during these missions are also discussed. iii The combination of a mono-hull and solid wing in an autonomous system is a viable design for a long-range ocean observation platform. The results of four near-shore ocean observation missions illustrate the initial capabilities of the design.
