[Editor’s Note: This article on “Sails” is written in two installments, the last of which will appear in the next issue N the selection of your yacht plan you made a careful study of the lines of the hull because you wanted the best design for the prevailing cond.itions where you proposed to do most of The first step, in considering the matter of sails, your sailing.

It can been gained from equal sail expanses than was the case in earner days. Today’s builders might probably be purchased through your local shade repair shop, or possibly through a book binder. just as well advantage by these studies`and exSome experimenting has been done with such perience. Nevertheless, it would be rare indeed materials as cellophane, pliofilm and synthetic to experience the satisfaction of having every element of hull, sail area, wave, wind velocity, materials such as is used in shower bath curetc., combined so perfectly that your boat would tains, but the stitches in these have been known to start tears, sun and water have induced rotapproach. 90 per cent efficiency. It just isn’t in the cards regardless of what you do, and that is ting, stretching has been excessive, and other what makes this sport of model yacht racing so difficulties experienced. Two yards of any material is sufficient for a suit of Marblehead sails, fascinating. and a first and second suit can be cut from three Wrhile this discussion will be confined to sails for the Marblehead class model racing yacht, the yards, the second*suit being stoml sails for instructions given would apply equally well to heavy weather. 3 and thd length Of the foot Of the mainsail. If both are too long your craft will be sluggish; if too short, it will be erratic and hard to control. Another relationship to the whole enters here, and that is the length o` the foot as coxppared to the height of the hoist. While no combination is perfect for every set of conditions, the following proportions would probably prove a happy The material list is made up as follows: Two yards of 30″. .or wider, material (approximately 90 cents per yard). Ten dress hooks for attaching mainsail to jackline. One celluloid headboard for mat_risai]. Four celluloid battens %2″ x ft” x 4″ for mainsail. Three celluloid batters %z” x ft” x 2″ for jib.

Shoemckers’ thread is excellent for joining headboard to mainsail. It is advisable to set your craft up on the stand with the mast squared and raked to about 3%”. Install the spars, using string attached to the mast to hold them in their proper positions-the after end of the jib club alining with the goose neck and the after end of the boom 51/2″ above the deck. (This provides clearance from the water when the boat is heeled and enables the running sheets to continue functioning.) Now measure the straight distances between the head, tack and clew comers of each triangle to thosepoints where you wish the eyelets to be located in the finished sail. It is best to draw a rough diagram on which to note these measurements. Recheck your measurements for accuracy. Your sail material Should now be laid flat on a smooth surface such as a large drawing board or a plywood panel, or the kitchen linoleum is excellent if your wife doesn’t object. Fix it in place with thumb tacks and be very careful to avoid stretching or wrinkling. The selvedge is that edge which is closely woven by the manufacturer to prevent raveling, and because o£ wind strain on the sail surfaces. care should be taken that all sails are laid out in accordance with the illustrations. From exhaustive experiments conducted by expert investigators a number of interesting items have come to light which deserve consideration by the model yacht sail maker, especially in fitting a suit of sails to his particular hull design. There is only one center of effort which will approximate perfection on your own boat and. the author cannot tell you where that =T.EoPE:`#iRBE£:+”_Cfc.tA c?E CgE,#ffiE;:°c¥pA’NPopt°:’ATLTi`J. 10 DETEf”lNE CENTEP 0F EFFORT OF EACH SAIL a COMBINED SAIL fLAN TA;”SA” = : i::Lfi£ 78ei . i5867 J3#Z.2o.` The inustration above makes it plain how the center of effort of each sail, and the entire. sail plan, can be found. The Only reason for determining this is so that the sails may be properly located with relation to the center of might be-whether high or low, forward or aftbut some factors can be followed in a general way. One of these discloses that the proportion of area in the jib to that in the mainsail should be 1 to 2.85, as this combination is most likely to prove satisfactory on a conventional design. It should also be home in mind that a relationship exists between the length of the keel appendage lateral resistance Of the hull. The c.1.I.. is that. point around which the hull turns, and can easily be found by imlnersing the model and pressing it sideways across the water with a pencil point placed near the water. If the pres- EJ 4 sure point is too far forward the stern will lag, if too far aft the stem will lag; when the pressure point is centered at the c.I.r`. bot,h ends will move equally. Mark this spot on your sheer line, as the mast step Should be mounted about 4″ ahead of this point on a Marblehhead model. The calculated center of effort and the located center of lateral resistance are now established only for a boat not in motion; when sailing, both of these points automatically move forward varying amounts due to the design of -the sails and hu`1l profile, and adjustments in balance for these factors can only be accomplished by shifting the mast on the step or the jib on the rack. Thi.s operation is called “tuning the boat” and is a very necessary adjustment, to be made only under sailing conditions. The effectiveness of a suit of sails depends on their fit and flow. A moderate flow is best for prevailing light winds, and a flat flow where the breezes are stronger. With loose footed sails such as those being described, the flow is determined by the manner in which the luff edges of the sails are cut. A sailmaker’s reputation depends on his ability to add, or take away, material in the proper places to produce the r.ight flow within the given measurements. Cutting roaches onto the leach and foot of the sails does not effect their flow, but does add a limited amount of unmeasured area and pre-vents sagging and an untidy appearance after the sails have taken their normal stretch. A change in flow will be effected, however, depending on how tightly, oi loosely, the foot of the sails i§ sheeted. With modem high sail plans it is advisable to keep the flow moderate, and such are the measurements given in the illustrations in this and the following installment.
