GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS REGULATIONS FOR ONE DESIGN CLASSES 1. All boats must conform to the specifications of their class. 2. Each boat racing must carry an honorary, regular, or jun- ior member of the Fleet except by special permission of the Chair- man of the Race Committee. 3. Boats may be hauled out of the water for painting or cleaning not more often than once in every two weeks, beginning with the time the boat was put in the water, except by permission of the Race Committee in case of damage to the hull. 4. Each class will observe its own class regulations. 5. All boats must register at the Fleet Office before entering races. 6. In interpreting racing rules, a charterer has the rights and privileges of an owner. SAILS Sails ordered for the various classes shall be made by the official sailmaker of each class. No member of the Fleet shall order any new sail or sails dur- ing the racing season without the permission of the Race Com- mittee and furthermore all new sail coming into the Fleet must be measured and a certificate of conformance with class specifi- cations be filed with the Race Committee. In all classes, only working sails and spinnakers are allowed when racing. Spinnakers may be carried only with tack fastened to spinnaker pole at outboard end, and with inboard end of pole resting on mast. Spinnaker pole must be carried to windward of the jib stay. 3 CREWS AND PROFESSIONALS In the July Series one professional is permitted on each yacht but may not handle tiller. In August and September Series one professional is per- mitted on each yacht on which there is no other person who has passed the 14th birthday, except in the Bullseye Class. In such case the professional must not handle the tiller. In all races where a professional can be carried and a pro- fessional is aboard a boat, that boat shall be credited with only 90% of the points it otherwise would have been entitled to. No one under 18 years of age shall be considered a pro- fessional in interpreting the above rules. The above applies to all special races of the fleet.

Harbor designated will be signalled by three blasts on the Northeast for after- races fire whistle at 8:30 A.M. for all-day races and 1:00 P.M. noon races. 4 PROTESTS In the one-design classes a yacht having cause to protest another yacht for infringement of these rules occurring during a race must promptly display the official protest flag by making it fast to the main boom. The skipper of a yacht flying a protest flag must notify the Committee Boat immediately after crossing the finish line at a time convenient to the Secretary of the Race Committee. the name of the boat being protested, and the Secretary will notify the person protested. All protests must be made in writing on forms provided by the Fleet. signed by the Captain or his representative, and must name the rule or rules alleged to have been infringed, and con- tain a statement of the facts and diagrams. All protests must be filed before 12 NOON on the day fol- lowing the race. A telephone notification of a written protest already in the mail constitutes a protest filed. In all other classes the above rule for displaying protest flag and the filing of protests shall be followed, except that the Fleet protest flag or code flag B may be used and displayed at discretion in accordance with N. A. Y. R. U. Rules. Any protest duly filed in writing will be considered by the Race Committee. PROTEST MEETINGS Race Committee meetings will be held in Fleet Headquarters at 9 o'clock on Tuesday mornings. 5 TABLE OF POINTS AWARDED TO YACHTS FINISHING Place Number of Starters 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 17 19 20 21 22 23 14 15 16 18 13 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 1st 11 12 100 100 97 97 2nd 8 9 10 5 7 Place 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 96 96 96 96 96 3 4 6 100 100 95 95 95 96 2 100 95 92 93 93 93 93 3rd 1 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 92 93 94 94 94 90 91 92 88 89 90 90 90 91 92 92 100 93 91 89 89 89 90 90 4th 88 88 100 100 100 83 86 88 89 85 86 87 88 1st 67 75 80 80 83 84 86 86 87 5th 82 83 85 81 83 85 85 86 86 87 78 82 83 84 6th 2nd 50 50 67 71 75 77 79 80 33 60 63 67 70 73 75 73 75 78 79 80 81 82 77 78 79 80 81 81 82 83 83 77 80 80 7th 3rd 40 50 57 25 67 69 71 56 60 64 67 69 72 74 75 76 71 74 75 76 78 78 78 4th 33 43 50 62 64 71 73 75 76 77 8th 20 50 55 58 29 38 63 65 67 68 70 57 71 72 73 74 5th 44 17 50 54 60 65 67 68 70 46 63 70 70 71 73 73 9th 61 68 6th 14 25 33 40 53 56 59 36 42 46 50 22 30 50 53 56 58 62 64 65 67 60 61 63 64 66 68 69 70 10th 67 13 47 67 11th 7th 33 39 43 11 27 53 55 57 59 20 40 47 50 60 62 63 64 66 8th 36 44 25 31 50 52 55 57 58 47 59 59 60 63 63 12th 10 18 9th 23 29 33 38 41 14 9 17 39 42 45 48 52 54 56 50 31 35 50 52 54 56 57 59 60 13th 10th 21 27 45 48 56 57 14th 8 15 25 33 37 40 43 20 29 48 49 52 53 11th 8 14 38 41 43 46 24 28 32 35 48 50 52 53 15th 12th 19 42 44 46 7 13 50 16th 30 33 36 39 13 18 22 26 40 41 44 47 48 13th 7 29 32 35 38 17 21 25 38 41 43 44 47 17th 6 12 33 36 14th 24 27 30 18th 11 16 20 29 34 37 40 41 43 6 15th 19 23 26 32 6 11 15 30 33 36 37 40 19th 16th 18 22 25 28 34 37 20th 5 10 14 17 21 24 27 30 32 17th 5 10 14 20 23 26 29 31 33 21st 18th 5 9 13 17 19 22 25 27 30 22nd 19th 4 9 13 16 27 8 12 15 19 21 24 23rd 20th 4 8 11 15 18 20 23 24th 21st 4 4 8 11 14 17 20 25th 22nd 4 7 11 14 17 26th 23rd 4 7 10 13 27th 24th 4 7 10 28th 25th 3 7 29th 26th 3 30th 27th 28th 29th 30th SCORING SYSTEM: each yacht's points are totaled for all the races in which she Each started. yacht the privilege of 1. 2.

SAILING RULES EQUIPMENT Each yacht must carry a suitable anchor and rode (consult class rules), a compass, a fog horn and one life preserver for each person on board. START AND FINISH If the mainmast or leading mast of any yacht be on or across the starting line when the starting signal is made, she must return and start again. The time of a yacht at the finish shall be taken when her mainmast is on the finish line. STARTING AND FINISHING LINE (As indicated in diagram) Consists of three marks forming a triangle off the entrance to Northeast Harbor. The northern mark flies a red flag, the southern a yellow flag and the western a blue flag. The Committee Boat end of the starting line is a white flag on the Committee Boat rather than the flag of the mark to which the boat is moored. For the convenience of managing the races the position of the white flag is subject to change.

NOTE: In races of the July, August and September Series, no boat will be considered to have started or will be scored which crosses the starting line more than 30 minutes after the starting gun for its class: on the cruise and in special races, one hour after the start of its class. COURSE NUMBERS Course numbers shall be displayed on the Committee Boat five minutes before the first gun. If two numbers are displayed the upper will apply to Classes A, Luders. and International only. The lower number is for the Bullseye Class. If three numbers are displayed the top number will be for the International Class, the middle number for Classes A and Luders, the lower number for the Bullseye Class. ROUNDING MARKS A yacht shall round the course in such a manner so as to pass each mark on the required side in proper sequence and so that a string representing her wake from the time she starts until she finishes would, when drawn taut, lie on the required side of each Mark. A yacht shall not touch a Mark unless wrongfully compelled to do so by another yacht. A yacht which has touched a Mark must immediately either hoist a protest signal or reround the Mark properly. Rerounding the Mark shall consist of making a complete circle around it, beginning from the point of contact. keeping at all times on the required side, and keeping clear of all other yachts except ones who have fouled the same Mark. If a yacht fouls another yacht during the rerounding maneuver, she shall be penalized as if she had violated Part II. 8 PENALTIES If a yacht, through failure to observe any of these rules. shall foul another vacht, or cause other yachts to foul. she shall be penalized in the following manner: 1. For violating Part 1 or Part II. a yacht shall lose 50% of her points gained in the particular race. 2. For violating any rule which obviously has no effect upon the standing of any other yacht, the offender shall lose 25% of the points gained in the particular race. 3. In event of a yacht violating or infringing any other rules not covered in the above penalties, the Race Com- mittee may penalize at its discretion in the following manner: a. 25%, 50%. or 100% of points gained in the par- ticular race shall be deducted.

PART I DEFINITIONS Terms defined below are capitalized in the text of the Rules. STARTING AND FINISHING-Unless the Instructions provide otherwise: A yacht Starts when, after her start signal. her mainmast first crosses the starting line in the proper direction: and a yacht Finishes when her mainmast crosses the finish line in the proper direction. LEEWARD AND WINDWARD-Leeward. the side on which a yacht is, or was if luffing head to wind, carrying her main boom. Windward, the other side. The Leeward Yacht is the yacht on the leeward side of another yacht. The other yacht is the Wind- ward Yacht. The terms Leeward Yacht and Windward Yacht apply only to two yachts on the same tack. ON A TACK-A yacht is On a Tack except when she is Tack- ing or Jibing. A yacht is on the tack (starboard or port) corres- ponding to her Windward Side. CLEAR ASTERN-A yacht is Clear Astern of another when her hull and equipment are aft of an imaginary line projected abeam from the aftermost point of the other's hull and equipment. OVERLAP-When neither yacht is Clear Astern and the yachts are clearly within three over-all lengths of the longer yacht. they Overlap. Two yachts also Overlap when an inter- vening yacht overlaps both of them. For the purpose of Rule 10. an Overlap that exists between two yachts when they Start. or when one (or both) of them completes a tack or a jibe, shall be regarded as beginning at that time. OVERTAKING-A yacht is Overtaking another when she is overhauling her from Clear Astern regardless of their respective courses. Overtaking terminates when an Overlap is established. TACKING-A yacht is Tacking from the moment she is be- yond head to wind until she bears away: if beating to windward. to a full and by course; if not beating to windward, to the course on which her mainsail fills. 10 JIBING-A yacht is Jibing from the moment her main boom crosses her center line until her mainsail fills on the other tack. NORMAL COURSE-A Normal Course is any course a yacht might sail. in the absence of the other yacht, to finish as quickly as possible. The course sailed before beginning to luff or bear away is presumably a Normal Course. MARK-The Marks for each yacht are the objects that the Instructions require her to pass on a specified side. The objects which designate each end of the starting and finish lines are Marks. Every ordinary above-water part of such object (in- cluding a flag and flag pole) is part of the Mark, but no part below water and no accompanying buoy. OBSTRUCTION-Obstructions are craft under way (including another yacht racing having right of way), craft at anchor. craft aground. wrecks. the shore. piers, structures, fish weirs, fish traps, and shoals over which the yacht in question may not be safely piloted. A buoy is not of itself an Obstruction. but it is part of one when the yacht in question cannot safely pass between it and the shoal or object that it bounds. PART II RIGHT OF WAY RULES The Rules of Part Il apply between yachts intend- ing to race from the time they begin to sail about in the vicinity of the start until they have left the vicin- ity of the course either between races or after their racing is over for the day. At other times (and at all times between other yachts) the Government Right of Way Rules (summarized in Appendix II) apply. For the purpose of disqualification, the Rules of Part 11 apply from the yacht's preparatory signal until she has finished and cleared the finish line. Rules That Apply At All Times 1. OPPOSITE TACK RULE-If two yachts are on opposite tacks, the port tack yacht shall keep clear. 2. ON SAME TACK, FUNDAMENTAL RULE-If two yachts are on the same tack, the Windward Yacht shall keep clear; except that a yacht Overtaking another shall keep clear while she is Clear Astern and, when establishing an Overlap to leeward, shall allow the Windward Yacht ample room and opportunity to fulfill 11 her newly acquired obligation to keep clear. (See Rule 10. second sentence.) 3. ON SAME TACK, PASSING MARKS AND OBSTRUCTIONS- If two yachts on the same tack Overlap when one of them reaches a Mark or Obstruction that they are about to pass on the same side. the outside yacht (unless the Anti-Barging Rule applies) shall allow the inside yacht room to pass or round it. But a yacht shall keep clear in anticipation of the passing or the rounding maneuver and during it, if she was Clear Astern when the leading yacht (a) reached the Mark or Obstruction. or (b) altered her course in the act of rounding it, or (c) was too close to it to give room. A leading yacht is under no obligation to give room before an Overlap is established ; and, in case of doubt. it will be pre- sumed that the Overlap was not established in proper time. A leading yacht cannot claim the right to tack under this rule: if she is rounding a leeward Mark and the next leg is a beat to windward; or if the other yacht is Clear Astern and to Wind- ward, and the yachts are beating to windward and are about to tack for or around a Mark or Obstruction. In either case, the leading yacht in Tacking is subject to Rule 5 and thereafter to Rule 1. 4. ON SAME TACK, HAILING FOR ROOM TO TACK AT OB- STRUCTIONS-When two yachts are standing close-hauled on the same tack towards the same Obstruction and neither yacht can fetch it. the helmsman of the Leeward Yacht. if he cannot tack without colliding with the Windward Yacht. may hail her for room to tack when safe piloting requires him to take action. After such hail, the Windward Yacht shall at once allow the Leeward Yacht room to tack, and the Leeward Yacht shall tack as soon as she has room to do so. If the Leeward Yacht's hail is improper for any reason. the Windward Yacht may hold her course. If she decides to do so. she shall promptly so advise the Leeward Yacht. In case of doubt, the Leeward Yacht's hail shall be deemed proper. 5. TACKING AND JIBING-A yacht while Tacking or Jibing shall keep clear of a yacht On a Tack. The burden of proof to justify a tack or a jibe made close aboard of another yacht rests on the yacht Tacking or Jibing. When a yacht tacks or jibes into a position that will subsequently give her right of way: (a) She must do so far enough away from the other yacht to enable the latter to hold her course until the tack or jibe is completed and thereafter to keep clear; and (b) in addition. when she is the Leeward Yacht of two close hauled port tack 12 yachts. she shall hail before Tacking if, on completion of her tack or shortly thereafter. the other yacht will have to alter course to keep clear. If two yachts are Tacking or Jibing at the same time. the one on the other's port side shall keep clear. 6. ALTERING COURSE-A right of way yacht shall never alter course when the other yacht is unable to respond owing to her position. or in such manner as to balk or mislead her when she is in the act of keeping clear. Rules That Apply Only at the Start 7. ALTERING COURSE BEFORE STARTING-The right of way vacht may alter course before Starting in any reasonable manner: but not quickly if such alteration would affect the course of the other yacht. 8. ON WRONG SIDE OF STARTING LINE AT START SIGNAL- A vacht on the wrong side of the starting line or of its exten- sions when her start signal is made. shall, until she has Started, keep clear of all yachts that were on the right side of such line when their start signal was made. 9. ON SAME TACK, ANTI-BARGING RULE-A Leeward Yacht is under no obligation to give any Windward Yacht on the same tack room to pass to leeward of a Mark of the starting line that is surrounded by navigable water; but a Leeward Yacht shall not after the start signal deprive a Windward Yacht of room at such Mark either by heading above the first Mark or by luffing above close-hauled. Rules That Apply Only After Starting 10. ON SAME TACK, LUFFING-A yacht may luff a yacht Clear Astern or a Windward Yacht as she pleases and head to wind if she pleases, until the helmsman of the Windward Yacht (when sighting abeam from his normal station and sailing no higher than the Leeward Yacht) comes abreast of the mainmast of the Leeward Yacht. Thereafter. or if he (when sighting abeam from his normal station) was forward of the mainmast of the Leeward Yacht when the Overlap began. the Leeward Yacht may not sail above her Normal Course while that Overlap con- tinues to exist. When there is doubt, the Leeward Yacht may assume that she has the right to luff unless the helmsman of the Windward Yacht (when entitled to do so) has hailed "Mast Abeam." or words to that effect. The Leeward Yacht must be governed by 13 such hail and, if she deems it improper, her only remedy is to protest. The Windward Yacht, unless an Obstruction or other object restricts her ability to respond. is subject to disqualification if a luff has to be curtailed because of the proximity of the yachts. In case a yacht has the right to luff all yachts to windward of her. all such yachts shall respond to her luff. even if an inter- vening yacht would not otherwise have the right to luff. 11. ON SAME TACK, BEARING AWAY-When two yachts are sailing on a free leg of the course: If they Overlap. the Windward Yacht shall not sail below her Normal Course: if one is Clear Astern, steering a course to pass to Leeward and is clearly within three overall lengths of the longer yacht, the other shall not sail below her Normal Course. PART III SAILING RULES OTHER THAN RIGHT OF WAY Except as otherwise stated in Rules 12 and 24, the Rules of Part III apply to a yacht from her pre- paratory signal until she has finished and cleared the finish line. The Race 12. KEEPING CLEAR BEFORE PREPARATORY SIGNAL AND AFTER FINISHING-A yacht shall keep clear of the starting area and the first leg of the course before her preparatory signal. and of the finish line and the last leg of the course after Finishing. 13. ROUNDING THE COURSE-A yacht shall Start and Finish in accordance with these rules and the Instructions. and shall round the course in such manner as to pass each Mark on the required side in proper sequence. and so that a string represent- ing her wake from the time she Starts until she Finishes would. when drawn taut, lie wholly on the required side of each Mark. Objects other than Marks may be passed on either side. 14. TOUCHING A MARK-A yacht shall not touch a Mark unless wrongfully forced to do so by another yacht, in which case she must protest. The Race Committee shall waive the penalty for touching a Mark if a becalmed yacht touches a Mark through no fault of her own. 15. TAKING OWN TIME AT FINISH-In the absence of the Race Committee, a yacht shall take her own time when she fin- 14 ishes, and report the time taken to the Race Committee as soon as possible. If there is no longer an established finish line, the finish line shall be a line extending from the required side of the finish Mark. at right angles to the last leg of the course, and 100 yards long or as much longer as may be necessary to insure adequate depth of water in crossing it. PART V MANAGEMENT OF RACES General Authority of Race Committee 35. Under the direction of the organization sponsoring a race. the Race Committee shall be responsible for making ar- rangements for and managing the race, and all yachts entered or racing are subject to its direction and control while in the vicinity of the course. The Race Committee or other authority may provide special rules for Team Racing and Series Com- petitions, for which no special provision has been made in these Rules. The Race Committee may reject any entry without stating the cause and may refuse to recognize a Class Rule that conflicts with an Instruction or a Racing Rule. The Race Com- mittee shall be governed by these Rules, by the Instructions, and by recognized Class Rules. and shall decide all questions in strict accordance therewith. When no Rule applies, the Race Com- mittee. in the case of a clear-cut and flagrant violation of the principles of fair sailing other than one mentioned in the Pro- prieties, may disqualify the offender after a hearing. Class Rules, Standards and Specifications INTERNATIONAL CLASS The Fleet will conform with the regulations governing the U. S. Division of this Class with such additions as shall be deemed to be to the best interest of this Class. A CLASS Owners have the sole right to vote on any changes in speci- fications and/or expenditures. Both owners and charterers have the right to vote on all matters pertaining to racing as such. I. WHAT BOATS QUALIFY: Eastern Yacht Club 17-foot gaff-rigged knockabouts designed 15 by Edwin A. Boardman in 1911, and built by George Lawley & Son Corp. (Nos. 1 through 24), and the later boats of the same design built by Rice Brothers of Boothbay (Nos. 26 through 50). II. CLASS ORGANIZATION: There shall be elected by the Class, at a meeting before Labor Day each year, a Class Captain and two assistants who shall serve as a committee in the enforcement and revision of these regulations, and in meeting from time to time (with OI without the entire Class, as the occasion dictates) to discuss all matters pertinent to the well-being of the A Class and the North- east Harbor Fleet of which it is such a large factor. The Class Captain shall appoint new members to take the place of members resigning for any reason. Members of the Committee will be expected to notify the Class Captain prior to July 1st if unable to be at Mt. Desert Island for the summer during which they have been elected to serve, in which case their resignation becomes automatic. III. FUNCTIONS OF THE CLASS CAPTAIN AND COMMITTEE: A. To be responsible for the organization and unity of the Class. B. To act as a liaison between the Class and the Race Committee. C. To see that all members of the Class have copies of The Class Rules. D. To act as a measuring and inspection committee, either independently of, or in conjunction with the official Fleet Meas- urer, to see that these regulations are complied with in every detail by the entire Class. E. To report to the Race Committee for disqualification any yacht infringing these rules after she has had reasonable time to correct the infringement. F.

FINISHING LINE YELLOW MARI: IV. SALES AND RIGGING: Only mainsail. working jib. storm jib, and spinnaker will be allowed. These sails must conform, if purchased after the adoption of these standards, to the blue-print dimensions on the blue print in the Fleet Headquarters, a copy of which will also be found in the Racing Instructions. The correct number in red numerals shall be on every main- sail in use in every race. As many duplicate sails as desired may be carried aboard. A. NEW SAILS: All new sails shall be purchased from the official Class sail- makers. The official Class sailmakers shall be Cousens and Pratt. Price lists are available at Fleet Headquarters. Owners shall notify the Class Captain of the purchase of ALL new sails. and shall be personally responsible for having them inspected and measured either by the Fleet Measurer or the Class Committee PRIOR TO BEING BENT, to insure con- sistency and continuity of standards. Any owner failing to have new sails checked as stated above will be subject to disqualifica- tion in any race or races in which the new sail or sails have been used. B. OLD SAILS; Old mainsails and jibs may be used as long as desired pro- vided spars conform to specifications. Old spinnakers must be recut if they exceed the blue-print dimensions by more than 1/2 inch per foot in any dimension. C. RIGGING: 1. Spinnaker hoist and block shall not be more than (24'8") from the deck. 2. The main sheet shall be rove through two single blocks on the boom in combination with the requisite deck leads. 3. The forward ends of the jib sheets shall be on deck and shall be rove through a double block or two single blocks on the jib club. and thence through two leads on deck of whatever type and position desired. Outriggers are not permitted. 4. Any number, type, and position of cleats is permitted. 5. Standing rigging shall not differ in disposition from the original blue-print specifications (i.e., 2 shrouds, 2 backstays, and jib stay) standing rigging in use before the adoption of these Rules may be used. but all new rigging shall conform to specifications. 17 6. Running rigging may be of any size and length, but no tapered sheets or double sets will be allowed. 7. Any size or type of sheet or halyard block now in use is permitted, but all new blocks shall conform to new speci- fications. 8. Gooseneck shall be not more than 17 inches from the deck. V. SPARS: No hollow or built-up masts, booms, gaffs, or spinnaker poles, shall be allowed. No plank or curved booms, gaffs, or jib clubs shall be allowed. Booms shall not exceed 19 feet 1 inch in length. (Mast to aft end.) Gaffs shall not exceed 13 feet 9 inches in length. (Mast to aft end.) Jib clubs shall not exceed 5 feet 2 inches in length. The point of attachment of the spinnaker on the spinnaker pole shall not exceed 10 feet from the mast, not more than 2 inches extending beyond the point of attachment. No spars shall be less than blue-print length. The Committee recommends that new masts be made by the Pigeon Hollow Spar Co. for economy and uniformity. and re- quires that all new spars conform to specifications. The Committee further recommends that bracks on boom and gaff be put on in ordering new spars or new sails to aid in preserving life and shape of sails. And also that battens be of ash, rounded on the inner end, sandpapered smooth, and planed down gradually from outer to inner end, that they may bend easily to take the natural curve of the sail. They should be about an inch shorter than the length of the pocket to prevent chafing, poking. or tearing of the sail. VI. EQUIPMENT: A. RACING TRIM (see page 3 of Northeast Harbor Racing Instructions). 1. Definition of suitable anchor and rode: A suitable anchor for racing trim shall be one weighing not less than 35 pounds of any type, and 2 rods of not less than 20 fathoms each in length, and of rope not smaller than 15 thread manila. 2. A lifebelt or an officially approved buoyant deck cushion 18 conforming to Government regulations must be carried for each person on board. B. CRUISING TRIM: 1. In addition to an efficient compass and foghorn. a riding light shall be carried with enough fuel for at least two nights. 2. One gallon of water shall be carried for each day of cruising. 3. All cruising equipment and accessories, i.e.. food. bed- ding. stove. etc., must be carried on board. This is obviously a matter of good sportsmanship and should be so considered at all times. It would be both foolish and difficult to in any way en- force this provision. but it must be evident to any fair-minded person that if he has a crew of two, and no cruising equipment and accessories. he has a distinct weight advantage over. say a boat containing four people and all the equipment and food necessary for three days of cruising, and that his advantage is an unfair one. It should also be remembered that in case of accident or getting lost or separated from the rest of the Fleet due to fog or bad weather, this equipment might be not only desirable but necessary. VII. HAULING OUT: No yacht shall be hauled out for painting or scraping. or both. more than once every two weeks during the July and August Series. Pot-leading is not allowed as. owing to the above regulation, it cannot be applied frequently enough to warrant the expense incurred. Revised by the Class Committee in 1934.

There is a right way and a wrong way to maneuver to pick on up a man overboard, and the life of a shipmate may hang your skill. Therefore frequent opportunities should be taken to practice this maneuver in varying conditions of weather, and this practice provides lots of fun and interest. 1. On the wind. Keep away and jibe, then luff into the wind, so that, almost on reaching the man, the boat is nearly head to wind, and has from the lost way. Better be to leeward of the man, for the wash lee bow is apt to thrust him out of reach. W I boat is close hauled on port tack, man indicated. has fallen overboard In Figure at X. Put your helm up and proceed as 2. Reaching. follow the same maneuver here as in Figure inside I, when your you If come you head to wind you would find the man 21 turning circle and out of reach. and you would be under the necessity of getting way on again to bring him close aboard. There lies the danger of the wrong way and lost time. W In Figure II boat is reaching, man has fallen overboard at X. Hold your course for a boat length or a length and a half. Sheet home your mainsail, then jibe and round to as indicated. 3. Before the wind. Much more judgment and skill is required in this maneuver than in Figures I and II, particularly on a dark night with a sea running. W x In Figure III boat is running before the wind. Boom to starboard. Man has fallen overboard at X. Round up to port (to starboard if your boom is out to port) and reach for about three boat lengths. Then steer her home, come on the wind and tack. You are now on the reverse course and in position to shoot into the wind and loose headway at the right moment to pick up your man. Try these maneuvers with a cushion or lobster buoy for the fun of doing it, for the skill it develops and against the day (or worse, night) when a shipmate needs your quick and skillful action. 22 RACING SCHEDULE 1949 July Races DAY DATE EVENT POSTPONEMENT # Monday July 1.

If any of the mooring ropes are not long enough or too large to go over the cleat, please notify the Secretary.
