Louie da fly Posted October 5, 2020 #337 Posted October 5, 2020 Nice realisation of a delicate piece of equipment (the boat's first thole-pin). What are its dimensions? mtaylor 1 Quote It's not really a ship model unless you've bled on it.

mtaylor Posted October 8, 2020 #345 Posted October 8, 2020 I would say #2 if that is closer to mid-ship. It could be the angle of the photo of #1 looks too far forward.

Louie da fly Posted October 9, 2020 #346 Posted October 9, 2020 The centre of effort should be as close to the centre of resistance (i.e. resistance by the water to the movement of the vessel) as possible. it will depend on the rig and on the shape of the boat - obviously the "sharp end" presents less resistance to the water than the "blunt end" - but it usually means the mast should be as close to the centre of the boat as you can make it. Is the boat to be lateen rigged? If the mast lines up with the centre of the yard, there'll be more force acting on the back of the sail than on the front, because it's a triangle with the small end at the front. That's why the mast on lateeners is often a little forward of centre, and also why the mast often leans forward. See (such a beautiful sail!) and to see a small lateener being rigged: - mtaylor 1 Quote It's not really a ship model unless you've bled on it.

CRI-CRI Posted October 9, 2020 Author #347 Posted October 9, 2020 The right place woud be # 1 # 2 would made boat too difficult to sail, it's also the reason of changing rigging Niña's at Canarias Islands, before the great travel mtaylor 1 Quote

Louie da fly Posted October 14, 2020 #351 Posted October 14, 2020 For one horrible moment I thought you'd drilled up through the bottom of your longboat. Then sanity intervened - I realised it's just to give an idea how the mast will look (Be still, my beating heart!) mtaylor and bruce d 1 1 Quote It's not really a ship model unless you've bled on it.
