T he principal difference between the two hull forms lies in the afterbody, which is proportionately narrower in the J Class YANKEE than in the R Class one. It is possible, but unlikely, that this shape was influenced by the some- what controversial theories of Alfred Turner, who at that time had just published his first papers on the so-called “Metacentric Shelf” method of designing a balanced hull, that is, one that does not yaw as a consequence of heeling. These papers were published in the model yachting pressvi, and both Norman Skene and L. Francis Herre- shoff were active model yachtsmen. In any case, by acci- dent or design, the hull of YANKEE conforms exactly to the criteria Turner laid down for a balanced hull. Figure 4 - YANKEE’s hull under construction at the Lawley yard.

Subsequently BYSTANDER has been cherished as the beautiful yacht that she is: a remarkably untampered-with survivor from another age, exuding authenticity and atmosphere while still offering all that one would expect of a motor yacht of her length; a wonderful size that, depending on experience, requires as few crew as one desires - maybe even none. With her after accommodation reinstated following the J-Class tender days, she continues to offer stately comfort for six guests in four cabins, and to turn heads in Riviera anchorages. But authenticity can sometimes come at a cost, and BYSTANDER OF MAN, whilst in commission, is nevertheless in need of a refit.

  • 'Development of a Vpp Based Rating for J-Class Yachts'
    ‘Development of a Vpp based rating for J-Class Yachts’ Clay Oliver, Yacht Research International, and John Robinson, Wolfson Unit MTIA. Abstract The J-Class was originally one of a number of level rating classes, developed under the ‘Universal Rule’, rating at 76 feet. The class was designated for each of the three America’s Cup series from 1930 to 1937. Most of the yachts were either scrapped or laid up at the end of the 1930’s, but more recently interest in the class has revived. Following refits and restorations, and one complete rebuild, there is now a class association and interest in further builds is strong, with two new boats already well into construction and fit out. For several years, the J-Class Association has run regattas based upon a Time Correction Factor (TCF) calculated using the standard WinDesign Velocity Prediction Program (Vpp). In 2007, the Association transferred the operation of this rating system to the Wolfson Unit both as a measure of independence and further to refine the process. The form and proportion of the J-Class contrast dramatically with those of the modern yachts which have largely driven developments in VPP hydrodynamic formulations in recent years. This paper describes the some new formulations geared specifically to the J-Class yacht, and generally applicable to the traditional yacht. The fact that the keel and hull of the traditional yacht cannot be rationally delineated is an issue and an approach to obviate this problem is described. Data from 1936 towing tank experiments of 1/24th and 1/8th-scale J-Class models are reanalyzed for new J-Class Vpp formulations.

  • History America's Cup & J-Class
    h i s t o r y America’s Cup & J-Class The tradition of America’s Cup races began in 1851 when the schooner America defeated 15 British yachts to win the Round the Island Race in Cowes. Between then and the Second World War, races for the America’s Cup were held on 16 occasions. Leading businessmen such as Sir Thomas Lipton, Thomas Sopwith and Harold S. Vanderbilt went to extremes and spent huge sums of money in order to try and win the ornate trophy known affectionately as the Old Mug. Those who succeeded took on the role of defender, waiting until the other J-Classers determined who would be the next challenger. Due to the high stakes and immense public interest the fight was not always fair, and many protests had to be evaluated by the New York Yacht Club. In these days the America’s Cup remained a battle between J-Class yachts competed for the America’s Cup in 1930, Rainbow, Endeavour, Ranger, American and British yachts. After the Universal Rule was 1934 and 1937. Although the America’s Cup recommenced Endeavour II and Yankee compete established in 1930 the participants were J-Class yachts in the 1950s, the heyday of the J-Class was over and it in the 1937 preliminary race with a waterline length from 75 to 87 feet and a draught of would be more than a half a century before they raced up to 15 feet. It was this Universal Rule, developed by Nat again. The majestic yachts of the 1930s were either Herreshoff, which established a J-Class with more or less scrapped or used as house boats in the mud of the Hamble similar yachts categorised in one class.

Beginning with this issue, it returns to the quarterly publication schedule—February, May, August, November—that it fol- lowed for its first fifty years (1959-2009). It does so, moreover, under a new title designed to highlight its connection to the Museum and, by evoking the spirit of publications such as the William & Mary Quarterly and New England Quarterly, to highlight the mixture of scholarly content and ac- cessible writing that have always been its hallmark. Scholarly articles rooted in original research remain, as they have been for six decades, the backbone of this journal. The current issue presents two exceptional ones: one by a frequent contributor, and one by a new ad- dition to the ranks of Vineyard historians. The return to four issues per year will, however, also give us the freedom to run additional features— some new, others familiar from decades past—that will provide a deeper, richer understanding of Vineyard history and culture.

  • Sailing Yachts Back in Vogue
    FOREWORD Camper & Nicholsons has long been setting the gold standard for the superyacht industry. We recognise that yachting is a timeless luxury experience, and the investment clients make in buying a superyacht is not just financial.
