    CSC DINGHY SAILING MANUAL January 2019 Introduction Thereʹs no substitute for actual sailing if you want to learn to sail. This booklet is only intended as a technical reference, to reinforce sailing lessons. If youʹre new to sailing, relax—youʹre in good company. Most new members of the Cal Sailing Club do not know how to sail when they join. Put this book down until later, and go sailing. Credits Editor: John Bongiovani Author: John Bergmann Change History Anonymous. First published Edition. The club began about a century ago as an offshoot of a loose association of UC students and professors who were interested in sailing. Perhaps there was a manual—who knows? A manual for sailing was put together using a typewriter and hand drawn pictures, distributed in booklet format. The most memorable part was a cartoon telling how to get onto a Lido from the water, showing a shark. Fi.ing conveniently in a pocket, most copies were turned into pulp during the new owners first lesson. Sometime in the 1970s. 4arious minor changes stemming from disputes over gybing and other pe.ifoggery. Sometime during the disco era. The advent of the computer in revising the manual, but keeping the same organization. Major discovery: pdfs dont fit in pockets. Sometime in the Clinton era. Major revisions to re6ect the end of the Lido, which had served the club 7poorly8 since 1959. Sometime in the Bush II years 411. Joel Brandt June, 2011 Dinghy Manual. Cal Sailing Club January 2019 Page 2 412 John Bergmann, updated content and format, added detail on the R 4entures, March, 2016 413 Made corrections, added content on Quests, added more figures, and added a table of figures.

  • Excerpts from a Sailor's Wind Journal
    A Fine Reach Home: Excerpts from a Sailor’s Wind Journal Lynn Fels English Bay, 1976, International 14 We surface amidst sodden sails, shouting in surprise and haste. “Are you okay?” “Where are you?” “Hang on to the gunwale, no wait, swim the bow into the wind, now swim over here, we’ll bring her up together.” Martin and I, skipper and crew, throw our weight onto the centerboard. The boat reluc- tantly responds, the mast tilting skyward, rising from the sea. I taste the salt of ocean spray that catches me unaware after so many years of sailing fresh-waters. Equilibrium restored, seawater emptying through the automatic bailers, our sailboat moves across the water in ecological tension between human, craft, wind, and geography. Martin tends to the navigation, attentive weight- ing of hand on tiller, as I set the jib and cleat the sheet. Shifting body weight, secured by the trapeze,I feel the arc of body, an embodied inter- pretation of movement in response to the wind’s presence in the tautness of the sails. Sailing in the various conditions of wind requires an instinctive chore- ography of release and defiance, surrender and embrace, by skipper and crew. 180 Canadian Journal of Environmental Education, 13 (2), 2008 This is what holds me to task, as I swing in and out of the boat secured to the mast by the trapeze wire that holds me in place. “Wind’s coming!
