Revision as of 21:48, 22 September 2009

Please feel free to add your favorite sailing links that would be helpful to Nevermore sailors


Nautical Terminology

http://www.seatalk.info has an excellent and extensive nautical dictionary

Knots

http://www.iwillknot.com/ has videos on how to tie knots

http://www.sailingusa.info/sailing_knots.htm 

If you are going to sail regularly, it's important you know how to 
tie a bowline, how to cleat properly, and how to do a clove hitch.
If you might have a winch overrun, or get a lobster trap line in your prop, 
you'll want to have learned the rolling-hitch.

Good Old Boat/Torreson Marine, Inc Online Parts Catalog for Westerbeke 50

(also has diagrams like Nevermore's #23157 Parts List doc)

FairClough sailmakers of Nevermore's winter cover (New Haven, CT)

(has instructional video of erecting cover featuring our own Nevermore)

MA Regulations

http://www.boat-ed.com/ma/course/p4-subtable.htm


Tartan Organizations

http://www.tartan37.com/ and http://www.tartan37.com/t37forum/

http://tartanowners.org/
http://www.tartanownersweb.org/models/factory/specs/Tartan37C.pdf has many specs for T37C

http://tone.tartanowners.org/home.htm

http://www.tartanowners.org/tone.phtml

TONE = Tartan Owners of New England (the website guy has a T37C)

Racing

  • http://www.massbaysailing.org/ : Mass. Bay Sailing Association (racing)
    • (click "offshore" to get to big-boat racing info: schedule, previous years' results, etc)
    • yyyy - the "200x Mass Bay Sailing Offshore Book" link describes all MBSA races for the year
    • 2007 race [results] page 2 shows Nevermore's predecessor Aleida had 3-way tie
      with 9 boats finishing ahead and 46 after in Flip-Flop pursuit race)
    • 2001 - 2005 offshore race [results] shows Aleida standings when raced by MIT crews
  • 2006 TODO: find Aleida's results in Buzzards Bay (or Figawi?) racing, where some MIT racer reported seeing her
  • personal websites:
    • 2001 - 2005 racing [summary] outlines Aleida's MIT racing career and personnel who raced
    • 1983, 1985, 2007 racing [summary] outlines Nevermore's races by former owner, and by MIT crew


Maritime Regulations

  • American Boatschool [website] has general info about the course that 4 former Aleida captains
    and 3 prospective Nevermore skippers are using Jan-June 2008.
  • Boatwise CG license course [material] has USCG application forms with same version levels
    as American Boatschool application packet handed out to class @ May08
    Note: Aleida skippers upgrading to 6-pack tickets aren't actually using this school's offerings
  • [USCG Merchant Marine Licensing] site seems to have general, and possibly specific, info needed to apply for 6-pack;
    One navigation path is Charter Boat Capt. | OUPV in top menu list
    • [package] has same pages as Capt. Mike's handouts c.Feb08, except with more pages (10 total)
      but without the fill-in forms
    • this site is too inscrutable for Thom to find the actual data forms needed too (May08)
      and we like the "Boatwise" site above for these forms
  • Grossetti [License Consulting] website has many links, including
    • packages of forms for applying for licenses (similar to ones given us by Boatwise)
    • look up CG-documented boats (owner, size, etc., by official number or by name) (NOAA)
    • definition of the USCG's "inland" vs "near coastal" Boundary Line for licensing
    • vessel equipment checklists
(queerly, section 7.1 General Purpose(s) of Boundary Lines does NOT identify how USCG uses this line
to specify licenses as "near shore" -vs- 100 miles off shore?]
