THE NORTHEAST HARBOR FLEET RACING INSTRUCTIONS 1947 THE NORTHEAST HARBOR FLEET 0 RACING INSTRUCTIONS 1947 The Northeast Harbor Fleet RACING INSTRUCTIONS 1947 + RACING RULES The Racing Rules of the North American Yacht Racing Union will be in force, modified only in SO far as is provided in these instructions. GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS REGULATIONS FOR ONE DESIGN CLASSES 1. All boats must conform to the specifications of their class. 2. Each boat racing must carry a member of the Fleet except by special permission of the Chairman 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, except the 30 Square Meter Class, only work- ing sails and spinnakers are allowed when racing. Spinnakers may be carried only with tack fastened to spinnaker pole at out- board end, and with inboard end of pole resting on mast. Spin- naker 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. RACING NUMBERS Each yacht must carry her racing number. Class A-Red numbers 12 in. high, 2 in. thick; placed just forward of the top batten of the mainsail. Class B-Size and position as above; black numbers. TIME LIMIT FOR LEADING BOAT IN CLASS Courses I.C.

POSTPONEMENT OF RACES (Unfavorable Weather) In case of unfavorable weather the Tuesday series races will be sailed on the following day, but there will be no further post- ponement. Saturday series races will not be postponed. Special races will be postponed until the following day unless otherwise designated in the racing schedule or other notice. Postponed races will be signalled by three blasts on the Northeast Harbor fire whistle at 8:30 A.M. for all-day races and 1:00 P.M. for after- noon races. 4 SHORTENING OF COURSE Races will not be shortened except in case of an emergency. In such case the Race Committee may shorten the course during the race. The hoisting of Code Flag "M" and two blasts of the whistle or other proper device, or two guns fired, shall show that the race is to be finished with the round about to be com- pleted or at the mark where the Race Committee's boat is stationed when giving the signal. The time allowance, if any, shall be pro- protionately reduced. GENERAL AUTHORITY OF RACE COMMITTEE All races and the yachts sailing therein shall be under the direction of the Race Committee of the Club under whose auspices the races are sailed. All matters shall be under their control, and all questions which arise respecting such races shall be subject to their decision. The decisions of the Race Committee shall be based upon these rules, SO far as they apply, but as no rules can be devised capable of meeting every incident and acci- dent of sailing, the Race Committee shall keep in view the ordi- nary customs of the sea, and discourage all attempts to win the race by other means than fair sailing and superior speed and skill. POWER OF RACE COMMITTEE The Race Committee may refuse to accept any entry made after the specified time of closing, and they may, if considered expedient, reject any entry at any time. SAILING INSTRUCTIONS The Race Committee may change the course or amend the instructions, provided notice of such change is given to each yacht before the warning signal is made. The Secretary shall act on the committee boat during races as the responsible representative of the Race Committee, his decisions, however, being subject to approval or revision by the Race Committee. FOULS 1. In case of a foul, a yacht clearly at fault should with- draw from the race. 2. Any yacht subject to the racing rules is considered a starter for the purpose of scoring. 5 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. A yacht flying the protest flag, after crossing the finish line, should notify the Committee Boat, 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. 6 Northeast Harbor Fleet Revisions N.A. Y. R. U. 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. (Revision of Rule 20 of the N. A. Y. R. U. Rules.) 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. (Revision of Rule 27, Section 5, of the N. A. Y. R. U. Rules.) The time of a yacht at the finish shall be taken when her mainmast is on the finish line. (Revision of Rule 41 of the N. A. Y. R. U. Rules.) 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 and August Series, no boat will be con- sidered 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, Luder, 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 Luder, the lower number for the Bullseye Class. (Revision of Rule 26 of the N. A. Y. R. U. Rules.) GOVERNMENT MARKS AND OBSTRUCTIONS Rule 28 of the N. A. Y. R. U. Rules shall be regarded on courses 9, 10, and 18. Disregarded on all other courses. Disregard Bell "2" over Spurling Rock in all races of the Fleet. The required side of any island is indicated by red line on the chart. East and South Bunker Ledges are not islands. MARKS OF THE COURSE Marks of the starting line are obstructions to sea-room until the starting signal at which time they become marks of the course. (Revision of Rule 34 of the N. A. Y. R. U. Rules.) 9 Extracts from the Official Racing Rules of the North American Yacht Racing Union Part II-Sailing Rules RULE XIV When Amenable to Part II of the Racing Rules A yacht shall be amenable to Part 2 of the Racing Rules from the time the preparatory signal for her class is made, and shall continue so until she has finished and her entire hull and spars are clear of the finish line. RULE XVII Definition of Corinthianism Corinthianism in yachting is that attribute which represents participation for sport as distinct from gain, and which also involves the acquirement of nautical experience through the love of sport, rather than through necessity or the hope of gain. RULE XX Life Buoys Each yacht shall carry on deck or within reach of the helms- man, ready for use, at least two serviceable life buoys. RULE XXI Lights and Fog Signals The Government regulations regarding lights and fog signals shall be observed. RULE XXII Manual Power Only to be Used Manual power only may be used for hoisting and working sails or for working a centerboard or plate. RULE XXIV Boarding and Leaving Unless otherwise specified in the instructions no person shall board or leave a yacht except in case of accident or injury to a person on board. 10 RULE XXVI Starting and Course Signals (1) The starting signals for all races, to which attention shall be called by gun, whistle, or other proper device shall, unless otherwise specified in the instructions, be as follows: WARNING: The hoisting of a white distinctive signal, other than a flag, ten minutes before the start of the first class for which a race is held. PREPARATARY: Five minutes after the warning signal, the hoisting of a blue distinctive signal, other than a flag. START: Five minutes after the preparatory signal, the hoist- ing of a distinctive signal, as provided in the instructions. (2) In starting yachts by classes the classes shall be started at five minute intervals and a distinctive signal, as provided in the instructions, shall be made for each class SO started. The starting signal for one class shall be the preparatory signal for the next class. Each signal shall remain hoisted for 41/2 minutes and there shall be an interval of a half minute between the lower- ing of a signal and the hoisting of the next signal. (3) The Race Committee may alter the time intervals be- tween signals when SO stated in the instructions. (4) Where course signals are used, they shall be made at least five minutes before the warning signal, except that after a postponement of five-minute intervals such signals shall be made with the warning signal of the first class to start after such postponement. (5) The courses specified in the instructions may be re- versed. The signal for sailing courses in the reverse direction shall be Code Flag "I" or a distinctive signal other than a flag made at least five minutes before the warning signal, except that after a postponement of five-minute intervals it shall be made with the warning signal of the first class to start after such postponement. (6) Course and Reverse Course Signals shall be kept set until all classes sailing such course have started. RULE XXVII Start and Recall (1) The starting line shall be indicated by a stakeboat or other mark at one end and a white flag displayed on the Race Committee's boat or station at the other end. (2) The Race Committee may establish, by means of a buoy or buoys, a restricted area about the starting line, within 11 which no yacht shall enter until the preparatory signal for her class is made. Such buoys shall not be deemed marks of the course. (3) Yachts whose preparatory signal has not been made must keep clear of yachts whose preparatory signal has been made. Yachts whose preparatory signal has not been made must at all times keep clear of any restricted area about the starting line established by the Race Committee. (4) The time of the starting signal for each class shall be taken as the time of the start of each yacht in the class. (5) If any yacht, or any part of her hull, spars or other equipment be on or across the starting line when the starting signal is made, she must return and start again. Such premature start shall be indicated by the prompt and prominent display of a white ball or cylinder bearing a red band, or such other dis- tinctive signal, other than a flag, as may be indicated in the instructions for the race, and attention shall be called thereto by a suitable sound signal different from the starting signal. Should more than one yacht cross the starting line before the starting signal of her class has been made, an additional sound signal shall be given for each yacht SO crossing. When practic- able such yacht or yachts shall also be hailed by name, number or otherwise. Failure of the Race Committee to give the recall signals above provided for shall not relieve a yacht which has made a premature start from the necessity of returning and re- crossing the line. (6) A yacht SO returning, or one working into position from the wrong side of the line after her starting signal has been made, must keep clear of and give way to all competing yachts whose starting signal has been made. (7) A yacht starting after the signal for the start of the next class has been made, shall, in starting, keep clear of and give way to yachts starting during their specified starting intervals. RULE XXVIII Government Marks All Government Marks and Aids to Navigation not used as turning marks shall be passed on the channel side and shall be deemed marks of the course unless the instructions specify other- wise. When used as turning marks and there is an accompanying buoy, the accompanying buoy may be disregarded and passed on either hand unless the instructions for the race specify otherwise. 12 RULE XXIX Definitions (1) CLOSE-HAULED AND FREE. (a) CLOSE-HAULED. A yacht is close-hauled when sailing by the wind as close as she can lie with advantage in working to windward. (b) FREE. A yacht not sailing close-hauled, as defined above, and not in the wind, is sailing free. (2) LUFFING. A yacht is luffing when she SO alters her course as to sail a course more nearly into the wind. (3) CLEAR AHEAD AND CLEAR ASTERN. A yacht is clear astern of another when all her hull and equipment is abaft all the other yacht's hull and equipment, judged by the course which the two yachts are sailing. The other is clear ahead. (4) OVERLAP. An overlap between two yachts exists when they are sailing approximately the same course and neither has her bowsprit end (or stem if she has no bowsprit) abaft the other yacht's boom end or counter, judged by the course which the two yachts are sailing. (5) RISK OF COLLISION. The phrase "Risk of Collision" is used in the widest sense, and yachts must be considered to be "approaching SO as to in- volve risk of collision" whenever either of two cannot with per- fect safety be navigated without any regard to the proximity of the other. For example, generally speaking, two yachts cannot be navi- gated without any regard to each other unless either or both can at any moment turn a complete circle with helm hard over either way without fouling the other. When there is any doubt, risk of collision is to be presumed to exist. (6) OVERTAKING. Of two yachts sailing the same or nearly the same course one which is clear astern of the other begins to rank as over- taking yacht as soon as she comes anywhere within range of risk of collision and continues so to rank until she either- 1. Draws clear ahead; and then she begins to rank as over- taken yacht. 2. Draws clear abreast by widening out beyond range of risk of collision. 13 3. Falls astern beyond range of risk of collision. 4. One or both of the yachts tack. The obligation of proving that she has drawn clear lies on the late overtaking yacht. No question of overtaking can arise unless the yachts are sailing approximately the same course (A luff by one of the yachts under Rule 30, clause (B), does not count as a difference of course in this connection). (7) PROPER COURSE. During the existence of overtaking conditions the proper course is prima facie nothing to leeward of full and by if on a wind, or of the next mark if the wind be free; but there may be conditions of tide or circumstances, other than the desire to hinder the competitor overtaking to leeward, which justify a more leeward course; in this case the responsibility for proving the justification for such a leeward course would lie upon the weather yacht. RULE XXX Right of Way When one yacht is approaching another yacht, SO as to involve risk of collision, one of them shall keep clear of the other as follows: Overtaking (A) A yacht overtaking another shall keep out of the way of the overtaken yacht. (B) If the overtaking yacht steers a course to pass the over- taken yacht on the side opposite to that on which the latter then carries her main boom, the latter may luff from her course, head to wind if she pleases, to pre- vent the former passing her to windward until she is in such a position that her bowsprit end, or stem if she has no bowsprit, would strike the overtaking yacht abaft the main shrouds, after which she may maintain her course, but may luff no further. In cases of doubt as to the right of the leeward yacht to luff, the windward yacht must respond to the luff, and protest if she thinks fit. (C) A yacht must never bear away out of her proper course to hinder an overtaking yacht passing her to leeward. The overtaking yacht, if to leeward, must not luff so * An overtaken yacht, while risk of collision exists, must never sail below her proper course so as to hinder an overtaking yacht passing her to leeward. 14 as to interfere' with the windward yacht or cause her to alter her course, until she ranks as an overtaken yacht. The lee side shall be considered that on which the leading yacht of the two carries her main boom at the time she ceases to be clear ahead. Meeting, Crossing and Converging These clauses are framed particularly to avoid collision and the yacht which by rule has to keep out of the way must always do so (see clause [K]). Before the starting signal is given there are no restrictions upon the manoeuvring of the yachts other than the provisions of Rules 30, 31 and 32, and the yacht holding right of way may alter course in any reasonable manner (but a luff SO sudden that it cannot be easily responded to would not be considered reasonable). As soon as the starting signal is given, yachts must sail a course consistent with the intention of crossing the line, but in all other respects the only restrictions on manoeuvring are those provided in Rules 30, 31 and 32. After crossing the line the only restrictions upon manoeuvring are those provided in Rules 30, 31 and 32. (D) A yacht which has the wind free shall keep out of the way of one which is close-hauled. (E) A yacht which is close-hauled on the port tack shall keep out of the way of one which is close-hauled on the star- board tack. (F) When both yachts have the wind free on different sides, and neither can claim the rights of a yacht being over- taken, the yacht which has the wind on the port side shall keep out of the way of the other. (G) When both yachts have the wind free on the same side, and neither can claim the rights of a yacht being over- taken, the yacht to windward shall keep out of the way of the yacht to leeward. (H) When two yachts, both close-hauled on the same tack, are converging by reason of the leeward yacht holding a better wind, and neither can claim the rights of a yacht being overtaken, then the yacht to windward shall keep out of the way. "Interfere" is used in the sense of interference through actual contact. * A yacht is deemed to have the wind on the side opposite to that on which she is carrying her mainboom. 15 Altering Course (I) A yacht may not tack SO as to involve probability of col- lision with another yacht unless she can gather proper way on her new tack before a collision would occur; nor SO as to involve probability of collision with another yacht which, owing to her position, cannot keep out of the way. A yacht which tacks SO close in front of another as to cause the latter to alter course to avoid a collision before the former has gathered proper way must be disqualified. (K) When by any of the above clauses one yacht has to keep out of the way of another, the latter (subject to clause [B] shall not alter course so as to prevent her doing so. Although the right of way yacht is not bound to hold her course, she must not alter it as to mislead or baulk the other, in the act of keeping out of the way. A yacht may be disqualified on a protest arising out of a breach of any of these clauses whether a collision result or not. RULE XXXI Giving Room at Marks or Obstructions to Sea-Room If an overlap exists between two yachts when both of them, without tacking, are about to pass an obstruction to sea-room, or a mark on the required side, the outside yacht must give room to the yacht in danger of fouling such mark or obstruction, whether she be the windward or leeward yacht, provided the yachts are overlapping on actually reaching such mark or ob- struction. An overtaking yacht shall not be justified in attempt- ing to establish an overlap, and thus force a passage between the leading yacht and the mark or obstruction, after the latter has reached it or altered her course for the purpose and in the act of rounding it. A craft under way (including another yacht racing), of which the yacht concerned has to keep out of the way, ranks as an obstruction for the purpose of this or the fol- lowing rule. Rule 31 makes exception to Rule 30 only so far as to require the outer yacht, although otherwise holding right of way under the latter rule, to allow the inner yacht room if her overlap has been made in proper time. In all other respects Rule 30 remains in full force. As an example, a leading yacht may tack round a mark or obstruction only when she can do so and clear the yacht astern, just as she would be required to do if she made her tack in open sea without any mark or obstruction being there. 16 In all protests under this rule the onus of proof that the overlap has been made in proper time rests with the yacht that previously had been astern. RULE XXXII Close-Hauled, Approaching an Obstruction to Sea-Room or a Mark If two yachts are standing close-hauled on the same tack towards the shore, or an obstruction to sea-room which requires the leeward yacht to alter her course to clear it, and she is not able to tack without coming into collision with the yacht to wind- ward; the latter shall, on being hailed by the person in charge of the leeward yacht, at once allow her room to tack. A yacht SO claiming room shall be bound to tack immediately her hail is responded to. It the leeward yacht elects to clear the obstruc- tion by bearing away she shall allow the windward yacht room to do the same if she so desires. But if the obstruction is a mark of the course the leeward yacht has not the right to so hail the other about if that other can herself pass the mark without tacking. Although it is only in this rule that a hail is mentioned, other situations may arise in which under Rule 1 a hail should be given before making an alteration of course which may not be foreseen by the other yacht. RULE XXXIII Fouling or Improperly Rounding Marks A yacht must go fairly around the course, rounding the series of marks as specified in the instructions, and in rounding each specified mark her track from the preceding to the following mark must enclose it on the required side. A yacht shall not touch a mark of the course unless wrongfully compelled to do SO by another yacht. A yacht which has touched a mark of the course must immediately either abandon the race or hoist a pro- test signal. Every essential or ordinary above-water part of any object named as a mark, counts as a mark, but no part below the water, nor any object accidentally or temporarily attached to the mark. RULE XXXIV Marks of the Course A mark is any vessel, boat, buoy or other object used to indicate the course but does not become a mark of the course until the preceding mark, if any, has been rounded or passed. The marks of the starting line are marks of the course from the 17 making of the preparatory signal for each class, but there is no required side until after the starting signal has been made. Every mark rounded or passed remains a mark of the course until the next mark has been passed. A mark, until it becomes a mark of the course as above defined, shall be an obstruction to sea-room. RULE XXXV Fouling Competing Yachts If a yacht, through failure to observe any of these rules, shall foul another yacht, or cause other yachts to foul, she shall be disqualified. RULE XXXVI Running Aground and Fouling A yacht running aground or fouling a buoy, pier, vessel or other object may use her anchors, warps, boats, and other gear to get clear, but may not receive any assistance except from the crew of a vessel fouled. Any gear used must be recovered before she continues the race. RULE XXXVII Anchoring A yacht may anchor, but must weigh anchor again and not slip. No yacht shall warp or kedge or make fast to any buoy, pier, vessel or other object except for the purpose mentioned in Rule 36. In weighing anchor, yachts having a power windlass as part of their regular equipment may use such power. RULE XXXVIII Propulsion No means of propulsion other than sails shall be employed except as provided in Rule 36. RULE XXXIX Sounding No other means of sounding than a lead line shall be employed. RULE XL Man Overboard and Accidents Each yacht must render every possible assistance to any vessel or person in peril, and should she not render such assist- ance she shall be disqualified. If, in the judgment of the Race 18 Committee, any yacht not responsible for the accident shall have thereby injured her chances of winning any prize, it shall order the race resailed between such yacht and the winner of such prize. A yacht losing a man overboard must either recover the man on board before continuing the race or give up the race. RULE XLI The Finish (1) The finish line shall be indicated by a stakeboat or other mark at one end and a white flag displayed on the Race Com- mittee's boat or station at the other end. (2) The Race Committee's boat or station at the finish line shall fly the Race Committee's flag and after sunset shall show either the Club's night signal or two red lights. (3) The time of a yacht at the finish shall be taken when first any part of her hull or spars is on the finish line. (4) A yacht which has been timed at the finish is not re- quired to pass across the line but remains amenable to the rules so long as any part of her hull, spars or other equipment re mains on the line. (5) After finishing, yachts must keep clear of the line and of other yachts which are still racing. RULE XLII The Case of a Dead Heat In the case of a dead heat, the race shall either be resailed by the yachts having made the dead heat, or, if ordered by the Race Committee, the prize shall be decided by the spin of a coin. Part III-Protests, Disqualifications and Appeals RULE XLIII Penalty for Infringing Rules A yacht infringing any of these rules, which shall apply to all yachts whether sailing in the same or different classes, or attempting to win a race by other means than fair sailing and superior speed and skill, shall be disqualified. Any yacht which has violated any of the foregoing Racing Rules 1 to 42 inclusive, in a manner which she knows would cause her disqualification, whether the foul involves a yacht in her own class or in any other class, shall immediately withdraw from the race. The 19 owner of a yacht which infringes these rules shall pay all dam- ages caused thereby to another yacht. RULE XLIV Penalty for Gross Breach of Rules Should a gross breach of these rules be proved against any sailing master, the Race Committee may disqualify him from sailing in any race held by the Club for such time as they may deem fit. RULE XLV Protests All protests must be made in writing, signed by the owner or his representative, and must name the rule or rules alleged to have been infringed, and contain a statement of the facts. They must be filed with the Race Committee before 6 P. M. of the week-day following the race. A yacht having cause to protest another yacht for infringement of these rules occurring during a race must promptly display Code Flag "B" and keep such flag flying until she has finished the race, unless her owner or his representative has no knowledge of the facts justifying the pro- test until after the conclusion of the race.

The Class is limited to auxiliary schooner yachts of the cruising type not less than 40 feet nor more than 50 feet over all length and not less than 30 feet nor more than 35 feet water line length. II. Yachts in the Class are permitted to carry working sails and light sails. III. Yachts in the Class must carry normal cruising equip- ment including two anchors, compass, cushions, mattresses, cook- ing equipment and one non-collapsible boat. IV. Yachts in the Class must carry propellers in place. V. Yachts in the Class may not carry more than one paid hand. This paid hand must not handle the wheel. 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. CLASS A-RULES AND STANDARDS 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 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 01 without the entire Class, as the occasion dictates) to discuss all matters pertinent to the well-being of Class A and the Northeast 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. 23 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. To take action upon the reasonable suspicion of any in- fringement of these rules by any member of the Class of another yacht in the Class at any time during any series, prior to report- ing the infringement to the Race Committee. The Class Captain shall have the right, if he deems it necessary, to make an im- mediate inspection. G. To see that an Official Record of all measurements of all Class A boats, with dates of inspections and other pertinent in- formation is kept available to members of the Class at Fleet Headquarters on a Bulletin Board for Class A, or elsewhere con- venient to members but with as little bother to the Fleet Secre- tary as possible. IV. SAILS 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- 24 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. 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. 25 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 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.

There is a right way and a wrong way to maneuver to pick up a man overboard, and the life of a shipmate may hang on 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, on reaching the man, the boat is nearly head to wind, and has almost lost way. Better be to leeward of the man, for the wash from the lee bow is apt to thrust him out of reach. W In Figure I boat is close hauled on port tack, man has fallen overboard at X. Put your helm up and proceed as indicated. 2. Reaching. If you follow the same maneuver here as in Figure I, when you come head to wind you would find the man inside your 28 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 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. 29 SQ.FT. 418 SQ.F END OF BOOM 16' 1" 30 CLASS 31 16 10 L made LUDER CLASS 32 F2 4-8'12 foot for LARCHMONI CLASS 11-8 BULLSEYE CLASS 33 THE COMPASS ANGULAR ANGULAR POINTS POINTS MEASURE MEASURE North to East East to South If North 0 0 00 00 East 8 90 00 00 N E 1/4 2 48 45 E 1/4 S 81/4 92 48 45 N 1/2 E 1/2 2 5 37 30 E 1/2 S 81/2 95 57 30 N 3/4 E 3 % 8 26 15 E 3/4 S 83/4 98 26 15 N by E 1 11 15 00 E by S 9 101 15 00 N by E 1/4 E 11/4 14 03 45 ESE 3/4 E 9 1/4 104 03 45 N by E 1/2 E 11/2 16 52 30 ESE 1/2 E 91/2 106 52 30 N by E 3/4 E 13/4 19 41 15 ESE 1/4 E 93/4 109 41 15 NNE 2 22 30 00 ESE 10 112 30 00 NNE 1/4 E 2 1/4 25 18 45 SE by E 3/4 E 101/4 115 18 45 NNE 1/2 E 21/2 28 07 30 SE by E 1/2 E 101/2 118 07 30 NNE 3/4 E 23/4 30 56 15 SE by E 1/4 E 103/4 120 56 15 NE by N 3 33 45 00 SE by E 11 123 45 00 NE 3/4 N 31/4 36 33 45 SE 3/4 E 11 126 33 45 NE 1/2 N 31/2 39 22 30 SE 1/2 E 11 1/2 129 22 30 NE 1/4 N 33/4 42 11 15 SE 1/4 E 11 3/4 132 11 15 NE 4 45 00 00 SE 12 135 00 00 NE 1/4 E 41/4 47 48 45 SE 1/4 S 121/4 137 48 45 NE 1/2 E 41/2 50 37 30 SE 1/2 S 121/2 140 37 30 NE 3/4 E 43/4 53 26 15 SE 3/4 S 123/4 143 26 15 NE by E 5 56 15 00 SE by S 13 146 15 00 NE by E 1/4 E 51/4 59 03 45 SSE 3/4 E 13 149 03 45 NE by E 1/2 E 51/2 61 52 30 SSE 1/2 E 131/2 151 52 30 NE by E 3/4 E 53/4 64 41 15 SSE 1/4 E 133/4 154 41 15 ENE 6 67 30 00 SSE 14 157 30 00 ENE 1/4 E 61/4 70 18 45 S by E 3/4 E 1414 160 18 45 ENE 1/2 E 61/2 73 07 30 S by E 1/2 E 141/2 163 07 30 ENE 3/4 E 63/4 75 56 15 S by E 1/4 E 143/4 165 56 15 E by N 7 78 45 00 S by E 15 168 45 00 E 3/4 N 71/4 81 33 45 S 3/4 E 151/2 171 33 45 E 1/2 N 71/2 84 22 30 S 1/2 E 151/9 174 22 30 E 1/4 N 73/4 87 11 15 S 1/4 E 1534 177 11 15 34 THE COMPASS ANGULAR ANGULAR POINTS MEASURE POINTS MEASURE South to West , West to North , " South 16 180 00 00 West 24 270 00 00 W 161/4 182 48 45 W N 241/4 272 48 45 S 1/2 W 161/2 185 37 30 W 1/2 N 24 1/2 275 37 30 S 3/4 W 163/4 188 26 15 W 3/4 N 243/4 278 26 15 S by W 17 191 15 00 W by N 25 281 15 00 S by W 1/4 W 17 1/4 194 03 45 WNW 3/4 W 251/4 284 03 45 S by W 1/2 W 17 1/2 196 52 30 WNW 1/2 W 25 1/2 286 52 30 S by W 3/4 W 17 3/4 199 41 15 WNW W 253/4 289 41 15 SSW 18 202 30 00 WNW 26 292 30 00 SSW 1/4 W 18 1/4 205 18 45 NW by W 3/4 W 261/4 295 18 45 SSW 1/2 W 18 1/2 208 07 30 NW by W 1/2 W. 26 1/2 298 07 30 SSW 3 3/4 W 183/4 210 56 15 NW by W 1/4 W. 263/4 300 56 15 SW by S 19 213 45 00 NW by W 27 303 45 00 SW 3/4 S 191/4 216 33 45 NW 3/4 W 27 1/4 306 33 45 SW 1/2 S 19 1/2 219 22 30 NW 1/2 W 27 1/2 309 22 30 SW 1/4 S 193/4 222 11 15 NW 1/4 W 273/4 311 11 15 SW 20 225 00 00 NW 28 315 00 00 SW 1/4 W 201/4 227 48 45 NW 1/4 N 28 1/4 317 48 45 SW 1/2 W 201/2 230 37 30 NW 1/2 N 281/2 320 37 30 SW 5/4 W 203/4 233 26 15 NW 3/4 N 283/4 323 26 15 SW by W 21 236 15 00 NW by N 29 326 15 00 SW by W 1/4 W 21 1/4 239 03 45 NNW 3/4 W 291/4 329 03 45 SW by W 1/2 W 21 1/2 241 52 40 NNW 1/2 W 29 1/2 331 52 30 SW by W 3/4 W. 21 3/4 244 41 15 NNW 1/4 W 293/4 334 41 15 WSW 22 247 30 00 NNW 30 337 30 00 WSW 1/4 W 221/4 250 18 45 N by W 3/4 W 301/4 340 18 45 WSW 1/2 W 22 1/2 253 07 30 N by W W 301/2 343 07 30 WSW 3/4 W 223/4 255 56 15 N by W 1/4 W 303/4 345 56 15 W by S 23 258 45 00 N by W 31 348 45 00 W 3/4 S 23 1/4 261 33 45 N 3/4 W 311/4 351 33 45 W 1/2 S 23 1/2 264 22 30 N 1/2 W 31 1/2 354 22 30 W 1/4 S 233/4 267 11 15 N 1/4 W 31 3/4 357 11 15 North 32 360 00 00 35 INTERNATIONAL CODE FLAGS AND PENNANTS NUMERAL A L W PENNANTS B M X 1 C N Y 2 D Z 3 E P REPEATERS 4 F 5 First Repeater G R 6 H S Second Repeater 7 I T 8 Third Repeater J U CODE AND 9 ANSWERING PENNANT K V O TIDE TABLES Northeast Harbor, Maine 1947 Eastern Standard Time July DAY HIGH Low DAY HIGH Low 1 9.18 3.16 16 8.34 2.34 21.31 15.29 20.57 14.53 2 10.02 4.00 17 9.30 3.29 22.12 16.12 21.52 15.48 18 10.25 4.22 3 10.42 4.41 22.45 16.41 22.51 16.53 19 11.18 5.15 4 11.20 5.22 23.38 17.35 23.31 17.32 20 12.11 6.07 5 11.59 6.01 18.28 18.12 21 0.30 6.59 6 0.09 6.42 13.03 19.22 12.37 18.53 22 1.24 7.51 13.56 20.15 7 0.49 7.19 13.18 19.34 23 2.17 8.44 14.48 21.12 8 1.31 8.00 14.00 20.18 24 3.12 9.39 15.43 22.10 9 2.14 8.42 25 4.09 10.36 14.42 21.05 16.39 23.10 10 3.00 9.27 26 5.09 11.34 15.28 21.54 17.36 11 3.49 10.16 27 6.09 0.09 16.18 22.47 18.33 12.30 12 4.42 11.09 28 7.08 1.08 17.11 23.44 19.28 13.25 13 5.39 12.04 29 8.03 2.02 18.07 20.18 14.17 14 6.38 0.41 30 8.53 2.52 19.04 13.01 21.05 15.06 15 7.36 1.38 31 9.37 3.37 20.00 13.57 21.48 15.50 The hours of the day are numbered consecutively from 0 to 23. 12 is Noon.
