The necessary correction for the flpprre#t wind, speed of boat and leeway is accomplished by one adjustment, viz., moving the feather aft about ten or twenty degrees, or one to two compass points, as marked on the vane-disc. It is suggested that the skipper and his mate shuttle the boat across the pond with the wind abeam, and try to make the boat return to the same spot each time. In this way the skipper can determine the greatest angle of difference. The compensating angle would have the same compass-point value, but on the opposite side when returning. From the analysis it is observed that when on a beat, the vane-feather is moved aft about ten degrees, or about one vane-point or compass-point, from the tr«e wind. When reaching or broad-reaching, the feather will be aft of the true wind about two points, or 20 degrees. With the wind almost directly astern the difference is about one point. §Eu¥h:¥£ba:,:£e:I:,:;:§j:1:;en£;.;£n¥;t:tu;;:]3n:±§:§h:; with the feather forward, on the center-line of the yacht. i;:Sits;i;:ea:Vft:tt]%£ecm:er:ai§S§,yi::’°¥o]:u::i;ra;i:t;:S;;]§:ij]¥[: :h::§§tii§e::!h}iis::xd|%;e:g]:S;hvieh:ienes?kip#rh;:i#jc:;;:t;i§ skippers. 8 M01lIIL YACHTING MONTHLY VoL.
