    SLACKTIDE's Sea Trials: Breaking in our T26x7 Dave Zeiger © 2010 www.TriloBoats.com Part 1 of 4 Introduction Anke and I have just completed our first season's cruising SLACKTIDE in SE Alaskan waters. She's a 26' x 7' x 1', engine-free, junk ketch-rigged sailing barge of my design (plans and more pics at our website). She's not one of those curvacious barge-babes, either, but a four-square and unrepentant box barge. Years ago I read that it was once common to convert smallish box barges, originally built to service bridges, into sailing cruisers. My memory paraphrases the passage thus: These little yachts, generally gaff-rigged and sporting leeboards, were surprisingly beloved by their owners. They could be found tucked away in backwaters one would think only accessible to more able vessels.1 1 I think I read this in a book on small boat conversions, but have lost the source. If you know it, please drop me a line at [email protected]. --Thanks! I skimmed that passage in passing, along with its appealing pen and ink sketch of one, anchored in obvious contentment. Interesting, but I'd never seen such a barge – they seem to belong to times past. Yet the memory lay dormant for two decades before pushing through the mud of my id. Being by nature a penny pinching breed of sloth, I was finally led by circuitous routes back to the box barge. Plywood replaces the planks of yore, but like their inspirators, TriloBoats are, as boats go, extremely cheap and easy to build.

  • Topsail Gaff Cutter Rigged Bolger Nymph
    Topsail Gaff Cutter Rigged Bolger Nymph Rick Campbell July 2010 This charming little boat needs some explanation, as she is not the novelty craft she first appears. The rig and hull were carefully selected to fill a unique niche. Some background will help you understand my choices--and why this is an interesting craft to study but not likely one you will want to duplicate. Feel free to skip directly to the “Restoration” and “Sail Rig” sections. I am a designer, but usually not of small craft, and I have spent my life in and around boats and the arts. Sailing is clearly an art form (there are more paintings of sailboats than symphony orchestras), and I think amateur designs can be more creative and interesting than the usual professional craft commisioned by a wealthy amateur yachtsman. Phil Bolger’s old Small Boat Journal Cartoons are delightful examples of some amateur’s hare-brained concept sparking the imagination of a gifted boat designer. I also believe that widespread use of the scientific method by amateurs is the key to human-driven evolution. The Scientific Method: 1. You have an idea that differs from common knowledge and practice 2. You figure out a way to test that idea 3. Your experiment reveals merit and flaws in the concept 4. You use what you’ve learned to modify the original idea/design Reading and habitual use of the scientific method are keys to furthering your own education. Reading takes you on previously traveled paths, and the scientific method takes you further. Along the way you discover stuff you didn’t even know you didn’t know.

Or try to sail away— edited by Catherine Stankowski, and written by Clearwater’s and then wreck? Does he stink like a dirty keel? Education Staff Or does he become sour—like a lemon peel? Maybe he grows weary like a tied load. Or does he explode? Well, actually, none of these! In the winter months when the boat is not sailing, the crew and I try to get as much maintenance work done on the sloop as possible. Sanding, scraping, painting, varnishing, sewing, fixing, oiling, overhauling, gluing, carving, shaping, renewing, updating, uploading, downrigging, uprigging, puttering, tinkering, banging, drilling, hammering, sawing, cutting, and smoothing are just some of the verbs that describe the work we have been doing. The winter season is very busy for us! In the winter months, we are able to take on larger woodworking projects than we can during our sailing season. It would be tough to find a good time in the middle of the sailing season to tear out a hull plank and make a hole in the side of the boat! But in the winter, when we have a shed built over the whole vessel, there’s both time and space to do the work.

  • Sultana's Sails
    Sultana’s Sails Each Sail Performs a Different Function When Sultana is Underway MAIN FORE TOPSAIL TOPSAIL STAY SAIL M A JIB I N M F MAIN A O S R T E M SAIL FORE A ST SAIL ultana is powered by six sails. The main sail is the vessel’s largest sail and is S attached to the main mast. The fore sail is the schooner’s second largest sail and is attached to the fore mast. These two sails provide the majority of the power when Sultana is underway. Near the bow, or front of the ship, are two smaller sails known as the stay sail and the jib. These sails provide Sultana with additional speed and give the captain greater control of the bow when the ship is turning into the wind. At the top of Sultana’s sailing rig are the main topsail and the fore topsail. These sails are most effective when the wind is directly behind the ship. They are also very useful in light wind conditions. In colonial times, Sultana’s commander used as many as fifteen sails! Adding more sails was important for increasing the ship’s speed, particularly when the schooner was chasing down colonial ships to enforce the tea taxes. Today Sultana’s maximum speed using all six of her sails is about twelve miles an hour. Rendering of Sultana by Darby Hewes Sultana’s Sails NAME: ____________________________________________ DATE: ____________ DIRECTIONS: Use information from the diagram on the previous page to label each of Sultana’s six sails.

    The Search for the Lion of Baltimore: An American Privateer from the War of 1812 By David Shaw his is the story of the search for an American T privateer sunk by the British in the Chesapeake Bay in 1814. The time was the War of 1812. United States naval ships were blockaded in port by the British. Most of the naval battles of the war were fought on inland lakes such as Lake George and Lake Champlain in New York State. In large part because of the blockade, the new United States government looked to private enterprise to help out – private enterprise in the form of privateering. Privateers were nautical mercenaries, non-military, ship-borne raiders sanctioned to attack enemy vessels, whether naval or merchant, in the name of the Federal government.

  • 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.
