Boat on a hill, never going to sea.
Anchored to a fixer upper’s
dream.
This boat is beat, never going to be a boat now.
Thirsty, sees the sea from high on ice plant.
He keeps patching it and painting.
Thinking about his pension plan.
But the boat is out to pasture.
Seems it never had a chance.
I wanna be a boat. I wanna learn to swim
Then I’ll learn to float. Then begin again.
Boat remembers the carpenter’s sure hand.
Missing fishy flutter on it’s rudder.
Sold at an auction, on a dolly ever since.
Sometimes rainy days bring boyish wonder.

Douglass tried escaping three times. The third time was the charm. This time he boarded a train dressed as a sailor, one of the few occupations a free blackman could have. He then crossed a river via a ferry and took another train to Wilmington, Delaware. From there he boarded a steamboat and sailed up the Delaware river to Phily before moving on to NYC.
Cooking Crab in a Drift Boat
Author: admin
Ron Wakita of Reliable Guide and Charters had a plan: Let’s go catch some Dungeness Crab in the Douglas Channel, cook them on the drift boat while we fish for Chinook (King)Salmon in the Kitimat River. GREAT plan, I said. I cut the video after the crab feast. We did hook into two Chinook but lost them both. We did land a Pink.

I also I book guided fishing trips for whom I think are the very best fishing guides in British Columbia. I know all of them very well. They do a fabulous job and pride themselves on service and professionalism.
IF YOU ARE EVER INTERESTRED TO BOOK A TRIP WITH ONE OF THEM PLEASE CONTACT ME ANYTIME. My contact info is: Phone 250-635-2568 E-mail: noel@noelgyger.ca Website: www.noelgyger.ca. Hope to hear from you soon. Take care. Best regards, Noel Gyger

There are fairly precise calculations for determining sail plans (as well as the sail areas in the first place).
You establish the ‘common centre of effort’ (C of E) of the entire plan and relate this to the ‘centre of lateral resistance’ (CLR) of the hull.
The distance between the two is called the ‘lead’ of the vessel and is expressed as a percentage of the waterline length. Among other aspects, it is crucial in determining the extent of ‘lee’ or ‘weather’ helm of the vessel.
A rough guide is: Lead: (12 – 16)% for sloops; (8 – 11)% for yawls, and (5 – 7)% for schooners (etc).
Use straightforward formula for calculating the areas of the sail shapes (triangles, trapezoids etc) and geometry for finding their centres of effort a well as the common centre of them all together (common centre of effort). Draw a vertical line through this centre.
Use Simpson’s rule for calculating the area of the underwater profile of the vessel and moments calculations for its centre of effort. Draw a vertical line through this centre.
The distance between the two, as a percentage of the waterline length is the ‘lead’.
But for a model ….. ? ….. trial and error based on what looks right, using intuitive design and ‘nice’ judgement would be sufficient I should have guessed. And if it is a working (sailing) model, as opposed to just display, then use very basic materials and ‘test’ rigs first, to obtain the desired shapes and areas, and positions of masts etc. before proceeding to the finish quality.
(If I can find a good link to a diagram of these geometric procedures I will edit it in).
__________________
Edit: This site is reasonable. But they have not shown the geometry! ! And you can see the lead – the small distance between these two points, in the lower diagram.

But anyway, see the diagram for C of E.
Find ‘C.E. Main’ (’centroid’): draw line from tack to bisect leach. Draw line from clew to bisect luff. Find C. E. Main at intersection (and so on, for others).
Find "Combined C.E" or Common centre of effort (C of E):
Calculate areas of jib and main.
Find position of centroid of each sail. (As above): ‘Jib C of E’ and ‘Main C of E’.
Connect the two points.
Extend lines at right angles to this line at each centroid. Upwards at one end of it, downwards at the other. (The bit the diagram noted, doesn’t show).
Plot TO SCALE in linear units the areas of main and fore along resulting lines RELATIVE TO OPPOSITE SAILS to find points A and B.
Connect the two points.
Find common C of E at intersection of A – B with ‘Jib C of E’ – ‘Main C of E’. (Shown as ‘Combined CE’ on the diagram).
[For plans with multiple sail arrangements, find each of these 'combined' centres and perform a moments calculation to find the common C of E for the whole plan.]
________________________
If it were me, for a model, I would make card or thin plywood patterns of the total sail plan (one pattern) and the hull’s profile (another pattern). Then find the vertical centres by balancing each in turn on a blunt edge such as a ruler, held in a vice. Draw these positions onto the patterns, place them (5 – 7)% of the profile’s waterline length apart and ‘presto!’
“I’m On A Boat” parody – I’m on a Truck
Author: admin
Access Self Store is excited to present Im On A Truck, a parody of Im on a Boat. This video spotlights our free move in truck. This is by far one of the best “I’m On A Boat” parodies out there! Please note, if you plan to look up the original video, be sure to search for the censored version as the original contains a lot of profanity.

i want to spend a day on the lake or the bay. how do i find where i can rent a boat?
try to research on the internet the area you want to go to.
Google day cruises or day boat trips in the area you want.
good luck and have fun
