READlNG THE WlND When you get to your favorite pond, take a few moments to observe wind direction, speed, and frequency of gusts and adjust your sailboat's rigging as necessary What follows are guidelines for tuning your ship's sai s and rigging, but with experience you will gain the ability to fine-tune your sails and rigging for optimal performance, regardless of conditions. For light wind conditions(1-5mph):use the adjustment blocks (bowsies) located beween the tops of the sails and the masthead to tighten the sails SO they will respond to the slightest push from the wind. For medium wind (6-1OMPH):Loosen the sails slightly in order to find the most efficient combination of sail shape and tension. As a rough guideline, you will want it somewhere in between the light and high wind set-up For high wind conditions (11-15MPH ):Loos-en the jib and main sail further. They will be better able to handle the high winds and your hull will be less likely to lie over on its side. GETTlNG WHERE YOU NEED TO GO Sailboats can easily sail downwind but sailing against the wind can be quite chalienging. ln fact, sailboats cannot sail directly into the wind and attempting to do so will leave you in irons. Sailboats can sail at up to a 45 angle against the wind, movements against the wind are known as tacking. Take a moment to study the diagram below as you read through these definitions. DOWNW1ND: Sailing with the wind coming from stern (a.k.a. running and sailing free). IN IRONS:A sailboat is said to be in irons, when the boat stalls with
its bow pointed directly into the wind with its sails struggling to fill with air (luffing), keeping the boat from moving. lf you find yourself in this position, simply move the rudder stick to either side and hold it until the sails catch some air. You will need to adjust the tension on the sails with the sail control stick to get the b at moving. Release the rudder when the ship reaches the desired heading. LUFFING: When the sails are unable to fill with wind and begin flapping wildly (like a flag). TICKING: Sailing towards the wind in a series of maneuvers diagonal to the wind source. There are basically two tacking directions. Starboard tack occurs when the wind comes from s tarboard and the sail boom hangs over the port side. Port tack is just the opposite, with hanging over the starboard side. Them are varying degrees of tack angle and it is important to learn when each will be useful and how to get your sailboat into position, especially when racing. For instance, when trying to reach a specific position upwind, sailing close hauled may be the most direct. In any case, you basically want the sails to be full of air and just on the verge of luffing. Here are some terms that describe different sailing positions in relation to the wind: CLOSE-HAULED: You can sail up to a 45 angle against the wind. Think of it as sailing "close" to the wind with the sails "hauled" in tight. CLOSE-REACH: Nearly the same asclose-hauled, but at less of an angle toward the wind. This allows the boat to reach greater speed. BEAM REACH: Sailing with the boat at about a 90 angle to the wind. BROAD REACH: Sailing with the wind coming diagonally from behind (a.k.a. sailing large or quartering wind). PLEASE READ BEFORE RUNNING THE SURMOUNT R/C800 SAILBOAT Downwind: In irons: Luffing: Tacking: Close-hauled: Close-reached: Beam reach: Broad reach: NEVER attempt to swim after a stalled or stuck boat! Wait patiently for the wind currents to return the boat to shore or use a tennis ball attached to the end of a fishing rod to retrieve it. Sailing the surmount in winds over 15 MPH is not advised.1f you wish to sail in conditions where wind speed is above 15MPH, you may want to install ahigh-torque sail servo. lt is dangerous to operate any R/C vehicle at any time that there is not sufficient light. R/C models produce vibration ns which will cause screws, nuts, bolts, etc, on your model to become loose overtime. It is impo- rtant to make sure that all hardware is secure before operating your model. CAUTION: Windy conditions cause rough water that will affect the performance of your the wind coming from port with the sail boom sailboat and increase the chances of taking on water. Your Paradise sailboat may occasionally take on small amounts of water, especially when running in high winds, rough water, and when making tight turns. keep a roll of paper towels handy and dry out the hull interior after every run. Check for leaks if you notice excessive amounts of water in the hull. After running, remove the hatch covers and allow the interior of the boat to dry out completely. If you neglect to do this, it may result in corrosion of the electronic components. IMPORTANT: lf, for whatever reason, your boat takes on a large amount of water causing the electronics to get wet, you must do the following immediately: Remove the radio equipment from the boat. Allow the components to air dry completely before reassembling. Reinstall the components and check for proper operation before running the boat in water. Total run time of the SURMOUNT R/C800 sailboat is approximately 45-60 minutes (assuming you begin with new batteries in the receiver box). When you notice a decrease in power or sluggish response, it means the batteries are nearly-drained and it's time to head for shore. As soon as the boat reaches shore, turn off the power to the boat and transmitter (in that order). LAUNCH PROCEDURE 1. Turn the power "ON" to the transmitter and boat (in that order). 2. Gently place the boat in water that is at least 12"deep and free of obstacles (weeds, rocks, sticks, ducks, muskrats, etc.).the mast of the SURMOUNT R/C800 sailboat is NOT A HANDLE. Do not hold the boat by the mast. 3. lnitially you will want to launch the boat downwind and note if the boat has a tendency to turn right or left. Adjust the steering trim lever on your transmitter until the boat runs in a straight line when the steering control stick is at neutral. 4. When finished running, be sure to turn the power "OFF" to your boat and transmitter (in that order). THE WAlTlNG GAME If for whatever reason, you lose control of your SURMOUNT R/C800 sailboat, wind and water currents will slowly carry it toward shore. The bad news is that the boat could be carried to the opposite shore. keep in mind things like wind direction and size of the pond or lake when surveying areas to run your sailboat. We recommend that you do not attempt to operate your sailboat on any "free flowing, bodies d water such as rivers or creeks. If your boat gets stuck in weeds or runs aground, use a fishing rod with at least 12lb. line and a tennis ball tied
to the end to retrieve it. Above all, NEVER attempt to swim after a stalled or stuck boat. If you intend to run on salt water, be sure to do the following:. Tape the hatches shut for added protection. Use petroleum jelly on the rudder and keel shafts.. Rinse thoroughly with freshwater after every run.
