Description: PRACTICAL JUNK RIG Design, Aerodynamics and Handling
This book is intended to provide a primer for those who want to study the rig
in detail. It describes the process of designing a rig for any specific boat, rigging
it, and sailing it. It is written equally for the amateur owner and for the
professional designer who may be approaching the subject for the first time.
The authors' qualifications are simply that we have worked together on the
development of the Chinese rig for 25 years, using it on our own boats and
designing rigs for other yachtsmen in various parts of the world. Between us we
have sailed at least 65,000 miles of open sea with it, including ten crossings of
the North Atlantic. The more we sail with it the more we like it, and this is true
both on ocean passages and when cruising in coastal waters.
Our most distinguished client is undoubtedly Bill King, whose 42 ft (12.8m)
Galway Blazer II (pg 215 and Fig 16.3) carried him across 40,000 miles of
ocean singlehanded before he sold her to Peter Crowther for further voyaging.
We believe that she may have been the first junk-rigged vessel in history to have
sailed round the world or round the Horn.
We are not experts on the vessels of the China coast, nor in the history of the
rig, but hope that some of the references in the Bibliography will help readers
whose interest lies in that direction. Inevitably this list is incomplete, as is our
knowledge of the work done by other Western designers.
