Saved by uncleflo on September 4th, 2022.
allpa is a leading European wholesaler. Founded in 1971, the company initially was engaged in sale of yachts. The parts and accessory busines, which was combined simultaneously, provided a synergy effect that was, at that stage, not yet recognized. The latter experienced a growth to such an extent that, to be able to give full attention, the sales of yachts was terminated. Soon, the understanding came that there is more to an "European Player" than sales only: Service and competent advice are the base of the "point of competence" in Nijmegen. Highly qualified and motivated employees are together a decisive team which is dedicated to "customer relationship". allpa is presented as a strong and dynamic international wholesaler with products for all kinds of water sports, for sailing- and motor yacht shipyards, nautic shops, service companies, inboard- and outboard motor dealers and also for commercial shipyard.

Paphos International Sailing Club - Home
Saved by uncleflo on February 13th, 2022.
Paphos International Sailing Club (known as PISC) was formed in 1999 by a group of sailing enthusiasts, the purpose being to promote all aspects of sailing and boating in Cyprus. During the early years of the Club's existence, activities for the most part involved the sharing of common interests and knowledge in a social setting. Today the Club consists of three active sections: Power Boating, Dinghy Sailing and Offshore Cruising. The aims of the Club remain the same, which is to promote sailing and boating in a friendly self-help Club with great atmosphere. We offer various boating events throughout the year, including Dinghy Regattas, Power Boat Treasure Hunts and Cruising Rallies in the Meditteranean, as well as numerous social get-togethers such as Beach Barbeques, Quiz Nights, Ten-pin Bowling and Dinner-Dances. The Club pays close attention to safety and follows RYA and Cypriot protocols in all activities on the water.

Reliable Communications: Communicate when regular telephone and internet services are either unreliable or unavailable
Remote Areas. Even the middle of an ocean or on top of a mountain, Satellite Phones allow you to stay in touch. Emergency Backup: When all other local telecoms are down Satellite Phones can give you an emergency backup line. Unobstructed View of the Sky: Working slightly differently from mobile phones, satellite communications depend on having a clear line of sight to the satellite in the sky. They work most effectively when used outside, with as few obstructions (tall buildings, mountains, trees, etc.) as possible.

Interesting Sailboats: SOLAR PANELS ON SAILS
Saved by uncleflo on February 13th, 2022.
I don't sail but this idea interests me. Why couldn't a turbine of some description be fitted to the underside or even integrated into the keel to add to energy produced That is called an hydrogenerator and many oceanic sailboats use them. On the Vendee Globe, the non stop sailing race around the world most boats have two. They are expensive, with a price around 4/5000 euros. Finally somebody is working actively in what seems to be an obvious way to generate electric electricity on sailboats: Photo-voltaic sails. Till now the technology did not allow for panels flexible enough to allow that but on last years the technology has evolved a lot. It is already possible and it will not be expensive in the future. At least a sail manufacturer is working already actively on that, the UKsails France branch.

Planning a Circumnavigation
Saved by uncleflo on February 13th, 2022.
Plotting world circumnavigation routes is a lot easier than it sounds. There are cruising boats LITERALLY all over the world. There are boats in the Northwest passage (up and over Canada), in the Antarctic, and everywhere in between. There are a few key things to take into consideration, but 95%* of circumnavigation routes follow the same general course. There are two major restrictions put on us by our vessel insurance; stay out of highly pirated areas and stay out of named storm zones. Insurance restrictions come with the option to ignore them. You can always go to these restricted places, BUT if something happens, your insurance will not be covered. Another option is that you can pay significantly more to be covered in these places as well. We have made the choice for ourselves to follow the restrictions set by our insurance. By definition, piracy is the act of attacking and robbing ships at sea. By that main definition, the Caribbean is one of the worst places for piracy. Petty theft of boats and their tenders is a major issue in some parts of the Caribbean, and steps should be taken to protect yourself and your assets.

Sampson Boat Co.
Saved by uncleflo on February 12th, 2022.
Right now, I’m on a mission to rebuild a 111-year old (as of 2021) English sailing yacht called Tally Ho. Designed by Albert Strange in 1909, she is a well-known and important historic vessel – but after many adventures she was left in a remote port in Oregon to rot for decades, despite some valiant attempts to rescue her. I bought her and moved her to the Olympic Peninsular earlier this year, and am now starting to rebuild her from the keel up. Eventually I hope to sail her back to the UK. If you are interesting in supporting this mission you can do so here. I started the Sampson Boat Co in 2013 as a platform through which to work as a self-employed Boatbuilder. Since then I have also started writing about my sailing and boatbuilding projects, so this website has become a kind of blog, as well as a display of my work.

Marine Engine Maintenance
Saved by uncleflo on February 12th, 2022.
If you encounter problems or need to carry out routine maintenance on your boat's engine then the following steps can be taken. For most small boats that have portable outboard engines which can be easily removed, cleaning and repair work can be carried out at home or in a repair shop. Larger craft, such as cabin cruisers, powerboats and larger yachts, which are powered by diesel or gasoline inboard or inboard-outboard engines, may have to have ther engines removed for major overhauls. Once the problem has been established you may need to contact a supplier to obtain the specialist part. Watercraft Services (UK) are Manufacturers, Importers and Distributors of Aftermarket Marine Engine components, including Starters, Alternators, Exhaust Manifolds, Drive components and many other items.

Andy Seedhouse Boat Sales - Woodbridge, Suffolk
Saved by uncleflo on February 9th, 2022.
A friendly but professional, family run business with an old fashioned approach to sales & customer service, situated on the waterfront of the delightful market town and boating centre of Woodbridge in Suffolk. Andy arrived in Woodbridge from the Midlands in the early 70’s to join his parents who had moved there some years before. Boating had always been the family hobby and he soon realised that whilst you could order your yacht from one of the local yards, there was nowhere to buy a dinghy to hang on the davits! He soon set about "plugging the gap" and acquired a premises on the Quayside and began buying and selling tenders, small fishing boats, sailing dinghies & day boats. His intention was to bring boating to "everyman" and his early adverts boasted that he could "get you sailing or motoring down the river for less than £500". Several thousand boat sales later it seems he was right! The business went from strength to strength and the range and size of boats he offered grew dramatically and now he has over 70 boats on display at any time, from dinghies to ocean going yachts – canoes to 40’ cruisers.

In every port there is a program of social activities or tours ashore, making ARC Portugal one of the most social of rallies. "ARC Portugal is a very friendly and sociable way to reach the Algarve from the UK, with good sailing between well spread ports - so good we've done it twice” John Easteal, yacht Fair Encounter (GBR) ARC Portugal is more than a passage south to the sun. Social activities in every port, and complimentary visits ashore to explore ancient cities and fishing villages make the rally much more of a holiday.

Arvel Gentry | North Sails
Saved by uncleflo on April 10th, 2021.
In the first edition of the Art and Science of Sails, written by Tom Whidden, president of North Sails Group, LLC, and Michael Levitt, and published by St. Martin’s Press, the authors used Arvel Gentry’s now famous Bathtub Experiment to demonstrate the existence of Circulation, or a second force, that operates around an airfoil, like a sail, wing, or keel etc. Big picture: it’s the combined effort of these two forces that makes the wind speed up on the leeward side — and thus show low pressure — and slow down on the windward side of a sail — high pressure. Gentry was the Boeing engineer who first taught sailors aerodynamics. These diagrams first appeared in Gentry’s Sail magazine articles. In the Revised Edition, the authors used computer testing to show where the wind speeds up around a sail plan and where it slows down. And why and by how much? Nevertheless, Gentry’s experiment is the standard — still popular on the web — and it was left it out of the Revised Edition with trepidation, but we linked in the book to this web page.

An Introduction to the Physics of Sailing | MIT BLOSSOMS
Saved by uncleflo on January 20th, 2021.
The goal of this lesson is to explain how sailboats work by exploring basic physics principles. At the end of this lesson, students will be able to identify the forces acting on a sailboat and explain how the combination of these forces results in the forward motion of a sailboat. Students should be familiar with vectors and be able to use them to represent forces and moments, and also should be familiar with using free body diagrams to represent forces and moments. A basic understanding of fluid flow and/or resistance might be helpful, but not necessary. This lesson and the follow-on assessment will each take about one hour to complete. Students only need pen/pencil and paper to complete the activities in the lesson, although an optional activity where students make their own sailboats would require additional materials. The classroom activity challenges are centered around small-group discussions based on the questions posed before each break. Free body diagrams, or another conceptual representation of his or her answer, should support each student’s solution to the questions posed in the video. Instructions for the option of having students design their own sailboats as part of this lesson can be found here: https://tryengineering.org/teacher/sail-away/
