Setting Sail: Dive into the world of nautical terminology and learn the language of the sea. 🚢⚓ Forecastle (forecastle deck): The forward part of a ship's upper deck, usually the crew's quarters are located here. Stern: The rear part of a ship. Forward: Toward the front of the ship. Aft: Toward the rear of the ship. Port: The left side of the ship when facing forward. Starboard: The right side of the ship when facing forward. Rolling: The motion of a ship from side to side. These terms are essential for understanding and communicating about ships and navigation. #maritime #shipping #learning

MasterShip provides naval architecture services, offering onboarding and offboarding at any stage. What does that mean in practice?  For their newest yacht models, Vedette Jachtbouw B.V. needed stability calculations. Working from the shape definitions and weights calculations, we entered data into our stability tool, checked the output amply, and reported back. Simple as that. #mastership #navalarchitecture #vedette #yachting #yachtbuilding #shipbuilding #projectsupport #shiplife #yachtprojects #shipprojects #yachtbuilders #shipbuilders

The Dyna Rig is the smartest rig design for Mega yachts, its modular sail plan allows service work to be carried out by pretty much any sail loft...anywhere in the world. compare the footprint of a Maltese Falcon sail....next to M5 mainsail...

Can you spot the mistakes? 🚩 🎯 https://lnkd.in/dBQifEBB ✨ QUIZ ✨ A boat builder has completed the back of the written declaration of conformity for the boat (see image) they have just built: a 13m multi-hull sailboat inboard diesel engine. After a quick analysis, we informed the boat builder the document was full of errors. How many of them are you able to find ❓ ✨ DISCLAIMER ✨ This declaration of conformity is not based on a real case but summarizes the most common errors we have encountered over the years. We are not trying to blame anyone. With this example, we just want to take this opportunity to learn. ✨ BACKGROUND ✨ The written declaration of conformity is a legally binding document for the manufacturer or its authorized representative. In this declaration, the manufacturer or the authorized representative will officially declare the references used to demonstrate compliance with the Essential Requirements: the European harmonized standards or other references (e.g., classification societies rules, etc.). The model of the EU Declaration of Conformity is a standard document established by the member countries' administration group (the ADCO). Articles 15.3 and 15.4 of the Recreational Craft Directive state that: "by drawing up the EU declaration of conformity, the manufacturer, private importer or the person adapting the engine shall assume responsibility for the product's compliance. The EU declaration of conformity shall accompany the following products when they are made available on the market or put into service: 🔶 watercraft; 🔶 components when placed on the market separately; 🔶 propulsion engines." We are inspiring a New Generation of Yacht Designers, Naval Architects, and Marine and Ocean Engineers.

The Chola dynasty boats and Viking longships, although originating from very different cultures and geographical regions, share some interesting similarities: 1. Long and Slender Design: Both Chola boats and Viking longships were characterized by their long, slender hulls. This design enhanced speed and maneuverability, making them suitable for various maritime activities, including trade, exploration, and warfare. 2. Raised Prow and Stern: Both types of vessels often featured raised prows and sterns. In Viking longships, these were typically adorned with intricate carvings, often representing animals or mythical creatures. The Chola boats also had raised sections, which could be ornately decorated. 3. Seafaring Capabilities: Both were excellent seafaring vessels, capable of handling the high seas as well as navigating rivers and coastal waters. This versatility was crucial for the maritime expeditions and trade routes they undertook. 4. Importance of Sailing Technology: Sails played a vital role in both Chola and Viking vessels. While the specific styles of the sails differed (Vikings used a single square sail, whereas Cholas used large rectangular sails), both civilizations understood the importance of wind power for maritime navigation. 5. Cultural and Symbolic Significance: Both types of boats were more than just transportation; they were cultural symbols. For the Vikings, their longships were central to their identity as explorers and warriors. Similarly, Chola boats represented the dynasty's naval strength and artistic achievements.

The evolution of lifeboats has greatly improved since the tragic incident of the Titanic's collision with an iceberg four days into her maiden journey, sailing from Southampton in England to New York in the United States of America on April 14, 1912. One of the findings was that there were insufficient lifeboats to accommodate the 2220 passengers, as well as the design of the lifeboat. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) responded by convening the 1914 International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS). This groundbreaking agreement set the groundwork for modern maritime safety, including the design, construction, and capacity of lifeboats https://lnkd.in/d63x7Hvg
