We will have a winter boat show edition Happy Boating, Dave Remember last winter? Stop for a minute and think about whether you can be 100% confident that your boat won’t sink if you leave it in the slip, or that you have the proper skills to ensure when you start it up in the spring, you can have a trouble-free season. If not, don’t do it. Call the marina and have the boat hauled, winterized, and covered up. UBB has several advertisers that can store, cover, and service your boat. There are some mobile service companies that can help you out as well. In this issue Wendy mentions that the Farmer’s Almanac is predicting anoth- er rough winter, so be prepared. Also in this issue you should read Peters tips on taking care of projects during the winter that can improve your boating season next year, The Dawsons have a check list of what to do that will eliminate issues that may happen while storing the boat, and Alan has an off season check list for the captain. If you insist on doing the work yourself, UBB suggests that you check out the Boat US 15-page Boat- ers Guide to Winterization.

  • Sailing Comprises Wind Propulsion of a Craft by Means of Sails Or Other Airfoils and Steering It Over Water, Ice Or Land, Depending on the Type of Craft
    Sailing - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sailing From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Sailing comprises wind propulsion of a craft by means of sails or other airfoils and steering it over water, ice or land, depending on the type of craft. A sailor manages the force of the wind on the sails by adjusting their angle with respect to the moving sailing craft and sometimes by adjusting the sail area. The force transmitted from the sails is resisted by forces from the hull, keel, and rudder of a sailing craft, by forces from skate runners for an iceboat, and by forces from wheels for a land sailing craft to allow steering a course on a point of sail with respect to the true wind. While there are still some places in the world where sail-powered passenger, fishing and trading vessels are used, these craft have become rarer as internal combustion engines have become economically viable in even the poorest and most remote areas. In most countries sailing is enjoyed as a recreational activity or as a sport. Recreational sailing or yachting can be divided into racing and cruising. Cruising can include extended offshore and ocean-crossing trips, coastal sailing within sight of land, and daysailing.

  • Seniors Interviewing Seniors
    New Horizons Project: Seniors Interviewing Seniors - Valuing and Sharing Rural Narratives Citation: New Horizons Project: Seniors Interviewing Seniors - Valuing and Sharing Rural Narratives (268 pp.) Mersey Tobeatic Research Institute, Kempt, Nova Scotia 2015 Printed on 100% post-consumer paper New Horizons Project: Seniors Interviewing Seniors - Valuing and Sharing Rural Narratives INTRODUCTION Seniors Interviewing Seniors: Valuing and Sharing Rural Narratives was a project co-ordinated by the Mersey Tobeatic Research Institute (MTRI) in the summer and fall of 201. The communtiy-based project of provided seniors an opportunity to preserve the oral history of western Annapolis County and Queens County. The goal was to reach out to seniors and involve them in interviews relevant to their past livelihood in terms of their skills, knowledge and experience on topics such as past land use, lifestyles, forestry practices, farming, wildlife, and concerns for the future. Through sharing their memories and anecdotes, local seniors provided a comprehensive overview of the past lifestyles, communities and biospheres of these counties. This historical knowledge and information is important to record as it is in danger of being lost as our population ages and it will help in understanding changes in land use, and vegetation and animal populations in southwestern Nova Scotia. The project also addressed concerns regarding the isolation of seniors by encouraging their social participation and inclusion. The participants felt respected and valued as their knowledge, observations and opinions were sought. The information that seniors shared gave valuable insights that MTRI and others with interests in the biosphere and history of the area can use in future research and initiatives.
