  • International 14 Dinghy

    International 14 Dinghy

    INTERNATIONAL 14 DINGHY The 14’ Dinghy was the "young man’s boat" of the 1920’s through the 1950’s. Starting with the "cats" and progressing through the sloop-rigged lapstrakes to the open-deck, smooth-skinned English type, these sensitive boats were the primary small boat class at RYC. Few were the skippers and crew of our larger boats who did not, at one time or another, perform on the RYC dinghy course or engage the Canadians in the Douglass, Emerson, Curry, or Eastwood Trophy regattas. Early skippers include George Ford, Bill Tarr, Dwight Hill, Mike Maijgren, Ritter Shumway, Mort Anstice, Bill Little, Gil Barber, John Gottschalk, and Lew Howard. They were soon followed by Norm Cole, Virginia Cole (one of RYC’s first woman racing skippers), Jerry Castle, Bob Cummings, George Angle, Dick Castle, Bob Corbett, Jon Heinrich, and Howie Rekers to name but a few. They participated in such memorable sailing events as the 1937 four-boat team trip to Denmark and England, the 1939 team race series at Larchmont, the numerous home- and-home Eastwood Series with Royal St. Lawrence Yacht Club in Montreal, the yearly Essex Yacht Club regatta in Connecticut, the 1948 North American held in Rochester, and the annual Bermuda Race Week. In 1950 Bob Lawless and Dave Cunningham skippered their own 14’s at the World Regatta in Los Angeles, and in 1952 Frank R. Shumway and Gene VanVoorhis tied this class in the LYRA Regatta. The following year at LYRA Charlie Shumway, Gene Van Voorhis, and Ted Goodwin swept first, second, and third place.

    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! Trapeze!” Martin yells, but I am already in concert with the wind, welcoming its arrival, anticipating its departure. Sailing, a harnessing of wind with canvas to propel a sailboat across dis- tances of water, in winds shaped by landforms, airflow and temperature, requires constant renegotiation by skipper and crew in response to the wind’s changeable presence.
