3 1.Explain the basic safety rules for sailing. Make sure you have qualified Scout Leaders available to run activities. Make sure you have a qualified First Aid Scouter. Always wear a Personal Floatation Device. Stay within marked boundaries. Scout forms must be completed. You must wear proper clothing: wet shoes, board shorts, thermal top, hat and sun block. 1. List or state the rules for water safety and safe sailing. All of the above Level One requirements plus: o Weather forecast information o Boat inspection to see the vessel is sea-worthy o Inspect and check all safety equipment o Local risks o Collision, water traffic regulations and safety signals 2. Be able to swim 50 meters. 2. Be able to swim 50 meters in clothing and tread water for five minutes. 3. Demonstrate how to fit and wear a Personal Floatation Device. Personal Floatation Device, PFD. Australian Standard AS 4758 A Personal Floatation Device, PFD or Life Jacket, is an essential part of water activity safety equipment. PFDs are classified according to buoyancy and design. Every passenger on a Scout vessel on the water must wear a PFD.
4 4. Name the parts of a sailing dinghy.
5 4. Name the parts of a dinghy and explain their function. 1. Mast Upright pole to which the sail is attached 2. Main Sail The main sail 3. Wind Pennant Shows wind direction 4. Hull Main body of the boat 5. Rudder Used to steer the boat 6. Tiller Attached to the rudder to help steer the boat 7. Daggerboard Vertical board that stops the boat slipping sideways 8. Bow Front of the boat 9. Stern Back of the boat 10. Boom Pole attached to the bottom edge of the sail 11. Sheet Rope used to pull in and let out the sail 12. Batten Stiffening strip which supports the edge of the sail 13. Sprit Diagonal pole that holds the sail up 14. Sprit Halyard Rope used to adjust the position of the sprit 5. Explain how to rig and de-rig a sailing dinghy. 6. Assist in rigging a sailing dinghy, sail a short course and show that you can safely control the dinghy.
6 6. Name the three types of sailboats and explain their function. Dinghies: Scouts usually use these. They are small and have removable centreboards. Keel Boats: These are larger like the yachts you might see at Seahaven. The centreboard is fixed and called a keel. Multi Hulls: These boats have more than one hull, which makes them very fast. They are usually referred to as catamaran - 2 hulls and trimaran - 3 hulls.
7 7. Explain the basic rules of sailing. When on board a sailing boat looking from the back to the front. left and right, are replaced by Port and Starboard. Front and Back, are replaced by Bow and Stern. The word Tack, describes which direction the wind in coming from. If the wind is coming from the Starboard side then you are on a Starboard Tack. If the wind is coming from the Port side then you are on a Port Tack. Sailing Road Rules are designed according to who under sail has the best opportunity to make a safe adjustment. Two sailboats are approaching each other on different tacks. Both are close hauled. Boat B is on the Starboard Tack and has right of way over Boat A Two sailboats are approaching each other on the same tack. B is broad reach and A is close hauled. Both boats are Starboard Tack. Boat B is the windward boat and must give way to boat A. Two sailboats are close hauled on the Starboard Tack. Boat B is windward and staying on Tack. Boat A wishes to change Tack. Boat A wishes to overtake boat B. A power vessel must give way to a sailing vessel unless the sailing vessel is over taking. If you are planning to change Tack you must first ensure you will not interfere with another boat. Boat A must give way to boat B. You can overtake a slower boat from either side carefully. Boat B should stay on course. All vessels must give way to oversize ships such as tankers as they are too large to maneuverer easily and cannot leave the channel
8 8. Explain how to find information relating to the expected weather and water conditions in the area where you go sailing. Describe the effect of adverse weather conditions on sailing. Wind o Maximum wind speed for Cubs = 12 Knots (NAUTICAL MILES) o The wind direction will affect the direction in which you can easily travel in a sailboat. Swell and height of waves o When wind speed doubles wind strength quadruples and makes waves. Sunshine or rain o We want the sailing day to be fun so not too hot and not too rainy. Temperature o We know that when the temperature is low we feel cold. o We know that when the temperature is high we feel hot. o When boating we should always be mindful that a sharp swing in temperature will mean a potentially dangerous weather event is about to happen and we should seek to get to shore. Air pressure o A barometer is a device that measures atmospheric air pressure. o The larger the change in pressure the larger the change in weather that can be expected. Further information available at: o The Bureau of Meteorology web site. o Willy Weather is a feature rich weather app that includes radar, satellite, detailed wind, rain, tide, swell and UV forecasts, as well as moon phases, and sunrise and sunset times. Books o Field Book for Australian Scouting - Boating Activities. Provides comprehensive information related to Scout provided boating activities.
9 9. Explain what the effect of wind direction and speed has on sailing. Sailboats can t sail directly into the wind nor directly with the wind. In Irons is where the boat is pointing into the wind and fails to get power from it effectively stalling. Close hauled is the nearest to the wind direction that a boat can sail. Reaching is when the boat is perpendicular to the wind. Close reach is when it is closer to the wind and broad reaching is when it is further away. Running is when the wind is coming directly behind the boat. The main sail is let out fully and the jib is usually set on the other side which is called goose winging. You can also put up a spinnaker when reaching to really power the boat along. Running is considered to be the most dangerous point of sail. How to identify wind direction Willy weather provides very up to date reports on wind at your GPS location including strength and direction. You can feel the direction of the wind on your face moving your face from side to side allowing you to get a sense of when it is blowing equally hard across your face. Objects on shore or on the boat will also assist you with finding wind direction. A flag, a wind vane, pieces of yarn or wool tied to the shrouds and the movement of trees will assist you with determining wind direction. 10. Demonstrate how to sail a triangular course using tacking, jibing, reaching and running square. 11. Have the regular use of a dinghy. Keep a record of the times and conditions that you sailed in over a six-month period.
