42. History Of The Olympic
The two ships had been sailing on parallel courses off the Isle of Wightwhen the Hawke was suddenly sucked into the olympic s side.
http://www.fortunecity.com/victorian/stoker/39/olympic.html
web hosting domain names email addresses In the summer of 1907, at a dinner party in William J. Pirrie's London mansion, J. Bruce Ismay discussed the construction of two new mega liners to compete with the luxury, size, and speed of rival liners like Cunard's Lusitania. Cunard had just entered two new ships to their fleet that were very fast. The ships could easily travel at 26 to 27 knots. The White Star Line couldn't compete against these new liners and expect to win. These new ships from White Star were to be known as the Olympic class liners. They were intended specifically to beat out the Cunard Line for the Atlantic luxury passenger trade.
On July 28, 1908, White Star owners, including Ismay, approved the principle design plans for the Olympic class ships prepared by the builders, Harland Wolff under the direct supervision of Lord Pirrie. Pirrie was also accompanied by one of the designers of these ships. His nephew, Thomas Andrews. Andrews would also perish in the Titanic disaster.
On July 31 of the same year, a contract letter was finally signed for construction in Harland Wolff's Belfast shipyards for the Olympic, the Titanic, and a third sister ship, Gigantic. (Britannic)
The Olympic's keel was laid down on December 16. Harland Wolff gave the Olympic's keel number as 400. The Titanic would soon follow as keel number 401.

The History of Tenby Sailing Club.
Old Tenby Harbour.
Many old pictures of Tenby and its harbour show the distinctive three-storey building now occupied by Tenby Sailing Club. It is situated at the end of the walled-off section of the harbour usually called 'The Sluice'.
The Sluice.
It is thought that the sluice wall was built during the late 17th century. This basin had three sluice outlets. Remains of a filled-in arch and steel hinges at the west end, near the present Mayor's Slip, were visible until quite recently until that end of the Sluice wall collapsed during a storm. The sluice opening at the opposite end would have been in the wall of what is now called South Wharf , which was made by filling in the east end of the Sluice in front of the Smithy Storehouse some time before 1811. The third opening may have been where the wide opening in the sluice wall now exists. Trapped seawater from the basin would have flowed from these sluice gates out into the harbour to sluice away sand, but, with one end of the basin already filled in, it is probable that sluicing had stopped very early in the nineteenth century. The east end was now South Wharf , used for landing produce and also for barking the sails of the ships with cutch (catechu), a resinous tannin rich preparation made from boiled oak bark, which was scrubbed onto the sails to help to stop the cotton material from rotting. But what use now for the west end of the basin? First

http://www.csa-sailing.org/clubinfo/history.html
HISTORY Carlyle Sailing Association is an Illinois Not-For-Profit Corporation formed in 1954 as Valley Sailing Association (VSA). The directors of VSA, aware of the shortcomings of the original location and the growth of sailboat racing, investigated sites at several of the lake projects being planned. The most attractive site was Lake Carlyle. The lake consists of 26,000 acres of water, approximately 8 miles-long and 3 miles-wide. The site is located about 55 miles east of St. Louis, Missouri. The directors of VSA spent hundreds of man-hours planning a new sailboat harbor. These efforts resulted in a lease agreement with the Illinois Department of Conservation for the present location. In the spring of 1971, the VSA Corporation moved two-thirds of its membership and assets to Carlyle Lake. Paved boat parking and drives, three jib cranes and 400 feet of dock comprised the major site facilities at the time of occupation. The building complement included a house trailer for the harbormaster, a utility shed, and a "his" and "hers" privy. Through the judicious balance of income and expenditure and participation by the membership, the amenities at CSA have expanded through the years. In 1973 a three-pod pavilion structure was completed. Nineteen seventy-four saw the installation of a rest room/shower facility by the State of Illinois. The harbormaster moved into a new residence in 1975 and an observation building providing shelter from the elements was erected in 1976. Over the years, barbecue pits, children's play area, landscaping, expansion of docks and cabin boat-parking areas, and beach facilities for catamarans were

Club History
There’s been sailing at Sidmouth for a year or two. In the 1920s it was mainly the twenty or so boats of the fishing fleet which occasionally raced and these boats would have formed the nucleus of the Corinthian Sailing Club. In 1936 Sidmouth Sailing Club was formed but its development was interrupted by the war. After the war the Club was re-started and in 1947 Fireflies and Redshanks were adopted as club class boats. This was a turning point in the growth of sailing at Sidmouth as previously any boat launched from the beach with a sail was eligible to race. Some of the Fireflies purchased had been sailed in Torbay in the post-war Olympics and members of the Sidmouth club went to Brixham to buy the boats that were sold off after their Olympic use. (Harold and Reg Fish, Ernest and Patrick Pym, Stanley Chard and John Luxton were the first Firefly owners) The Fireflies produced Sidmouth’s Olympic sailor. Patrick Pym started his sailing at Sidmouth with his father but by the 1960s he had moved to Hamble. In 1968 he was reserve in the Finns for the Mexico Olympics. But he made the1972 Olympics in

International Tornado Class
A Brief Tornado History
THE STORY OF THE TORNADO, THE OLYMPIC CATAMARAN
By John Forbes (1997) and updated by Jim Young (2003) The Tornado was designed in the autumn of 1967 by Rodney March from England, with help from Terry Pierce, and Reg White, specifically for the purpose of being the new Olympic Catamaran, which was to be selected by the IYRU in an Olympic Catamaran Trials. The boat was developed mainly in Brightlingsea, England. International Status was granted to the Tornado as a result of its outright winning of the IYRU Trials held in England. The next step, adding the Catamaran event to the Olympic program, occurred two years later, with the result that the first Catamaran event, sailed in 1976 in Canada, was sailed in the Tornado. The Tornado is an outstanding example of a class that was designed specifically for Olympic competition that has become a successful International class on its own merits. The Tornado has since remained unchallenged as the ultimate one-design catamaran. With its modern, stylish rigging and sleek lines the Tornado is quick to catch the eye of any water-drawn on-looker as it speeds across harbors, lakes, and oceans in over 30 countries around the world. With its ability to reach speeds of 15-18 knots upwind and downwind, and 33+ knots reaching, the Tornado is truly the purists' speed machine.

Related Category: Sports Although sailing as a means of transportation predates history, sport sailing : or yachting : seems to have originated in the 17th cent. in Holland. From there it was introduced into England (c.1660) by Charles II, and eventually spread to the American colonies. Then, as now, it was common for sport sailors to join together for social and recreational purposes in groups known as yacht clubs. The world's first such club was founded (1720) at Cork, Ireland. The oldest continuously existing club in the United States is the New York Yacht Club (NYYC; founded 1844). In 1851 members of the NYYC raced the schooner America against British competitors around England's Isle of Wight. Victorious, they deeded their trophy to the NYYC. It became known as the America 's Cup, giving its name to the oldest and most prestigious event in international sailboat racing. The United States won every America 's Cup (the event is irregularly held) between 1851 and 1983, when it was won by Australia. In the 1980s and 90s radical changes in boat design and charges of espionage and even sabotage roiled Cup competition. The United States regained the Cup in 1987, then lost it to New Zealand in 1995. New Zealand successfully defended in 2000 but lost to Switzerland in 2003. Since 1992, a new class of longer, lighter boats carrying more sail on a higher mast have been used in

Sailing Indoor Outdoor Discontinued Olympic Sports In ancient times, sailing was linked with the history and activities of many peoples and nations. It often played a crucial role in a land's growth and expansion due to mastering the seas through navigation. The first sailing competition, which is still held today, was the Cumberland Cup, inaugurated in 1715. The first international competition, in 1851, was the "Hundred Guineas Cup" - now known as the Americas Cup, named after the first winning boat " America ". This marked the debut of competition sailing, as we know it today. Sailing became an Olympic sport at the 1900 Olympic Games in Paris. There are nine Olympic Sailing disciplines: Windsurfer men / women - Mistral one design; Single-handed Dinghy Women - Europe; Single-handed Dinghy men - Finn; Single-handed Dinghy open - Laser; Double-handed Dinghy men / women - 470; Double-handed Dinghy open - 49er; Multihull open - Tornado; Keelboat men - Star and Keelboat women - Yngling; The athlete's score corresponds to his or her final position. Thus first place scores 1 point, second place 2 points, and so on. The winner is the competitor with the lowest aggregate score in all races, after the worst score or scores having been discarded.
