\"ElecTrip1\"<\/p>\n

FE83 or Finn Express 8.3m is a sloop, in other words bermuda rigged single mast sailboat. The boat was acquired by the club in 2011 when it was retrofitted with an 8.6 kW Oceanvolt electrical motor and a set of batteries. Between 2023 and 2024 the boat underwent another project during which we refurbished the interior and replaced batteries and the sails.<\/p>\n

The model is particularly suitable for shared use of the club due to its durable construction. In educational course use, the lightness, versatile sail selection and adjustment options offer a good learning platform. In excursion use, sleeping places, a kitchen and a water supply bring basic comfort even to a rugged island stay and for longer crossings.Due to the shallow draught, the boat can easily find its place between larger boats and motorboats in harbours. You can also reach natural harbours better.<\/p>\n

Sail selection<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Sail limits are cautionary. The maximum limits are already quite sporty and side weights are more than necessary. The choice is influenced by many factors, starting with the skills, alertness and fatigue of the crew, all the way to the development of the weather, the nature of the waves and the covertness of the sea area.<\/p>\n

The properties of ElecTrip’s sails run out already before the storm readings. Those interested in storm and open sea sailing should check out Adlard Coles: Heavy Weather Sailing, which contains stories about storm sailing on oceans and a section on boat technology.<\/span><\/p>\n

https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=hriGMouqiWg<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

If you are unsure, choose the smaller sail option. If you need more speed -> estimate the development of the weather conditions -> cover given by land -> mood and alertness of the crew -> the space required by the sail change and other boat traffic -> if everything is OK -> increase sail surface area.<\/span><\/p>\n

You can always stay at the port. Wait for favorable weather or come home by car. Report the situation and the next skipper will take it into account.<\/p>\n

Trimming<\/h2>\n

1. Loosen until the sail flutters. Tighten it a little.
\n2. Look at the sail.<\/span><\/span>
\n3. In light wind conditions the sail can stay quite baggy. In heavier wind, hard-furled sails.<\/span>
\n<\/em>5. The top thread of the main sail is shy.<\/span>
\n6. The bow is moved towards the side of the fluttering thread.<\/span><\/p>\n
