Commitee boat (for sailing races)

1,142 planepilot  8.7 years ago

This is a boat that is for running sailing regattas ( races ). I love sailing so i put this in use vtol for engine lift detach one and pitch for door in to bridge ( where you drive the boat). The stick stiking up is a flag pole. Upvote and coment if you like it you can use the boat for other prodgects just give me some credit. Here is a some information about the flags and there meanings RC flag and an orange flag that delineates the committee boat end of the start line. If things are running late, you will see the previous two flags and the AP signal. That's a red and white pennant, which is also called the Answering Pennant.

When the AP comes down, it signifies one minute until the class flag is raised. The class flag is the one which is so designated by the Sailing Instructions. So, at this point, there are six minutes until the start.

The Class Flag goes up at five minutes before the start and remains up until the start. This is a warning flag only. The Rules of Racing (RRS) don’t kick in for another minute. It is accompanied by a sound signal.

The P (Preparatory) flag goes up at four (4) minutes before the start. The P flag is blue with a white, square center. It is accompanied by a sound signal. This flag will remain up for three minutes.

The P flag comes down at one minute before the start. It is accompanied by a sound signal. The only flag still up is the Class Flag.

START: The Class Flag comes down. It is accompanied by a sound signal. You should be at or very near the starting line going fast.



I will be making some improvements to it eventaly but this is the boat for now. Thanks.
