Nutmeg 24
The Nutmeg 24 is a Canadian Trailer sailer, trailerable sailboat, that was designed by William Shaw (yacht designer), William Shaw and first built in 1964. The design is out of production.Henkel, Steve: ''The Sailor's Book of Small Cruising Sailboats'', page 367. International Marine/McGraw-Hill, 2010. The Nutmeg 24 was featured in the July 1964 issue of Popular Boating. Production Production of the boat was commenced in 1964 by Tanzer Industries of Dorion, Quebec. The company entered bankruptcy in May 1986 and production had ended by then. Hughes Boat Works of Canada later produced a derivative design, the Hughes 24.

Masthead Sloop
A masthead rig on a sailing vessel consists of a forestay and backstay both attached at the top of the mast. The Bermuda rig can be split into two groups: the masthead rig and the fractional rig. The masthead rig has larger and more headsails, and a smaller mainsail, compared to the fractional rig. The major advantage a masthead sloop has over a fractional one, is that the jib is larger. Since the jib has no mast in front of it to cause turbulent airflow over it, it is considered much more efficient than the main, especially for sailing up wind. Also, since the fore stay is attached to the top of the mast, it pulls directly against the back stay. Tightening the back stay, then, increases the tension on the fore stay. This is useful because the jib needs considerable fore stay tension to set well. This need increases in direct proportion to the wind speed and jib size. Increasing the tension on the back stay does not tend to bend the mast, as it would on a fractional sloop. It put ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Islander 24 Bahama
The Islander 24 Bahama, also called the Islander Bahama 24, is an American trailerable sailboat that was designed by Joseph McGlasson and first built in 1964.Henkel, Steve: ''The Sailor's Book of Small Cruising Sailboats'', page 316. International Marine/McGraw-Hill, 2010. The Islander 24 Bahama is a development of the 1961 Islander 24 which itself is a fiberglass development of the wooden-hulled Catalina Islander. Development McGlasson approached Glas Laminates to build a version of his wooden Catalina Islander in fiberglass. The mold was created by using the hull of one of the wooden boats and the resulting fiberglass boats retained the distinctive wooden board imprints from the mold. The 1961 Islander 24 features a trunk cabin, but the raised deck Islander 24 Bahama version proved a bigger commercial success and, as a result the Islander 24 had a relatively short production run.

Columbia 24
The Columbia 24 is a series of American sailboats that were designed by Joseph McGlasson and first built in 1962. The Columbia 24 is a development of the Islander 24, which in turn was derived from the wooden Catalina Islander. The Columbia 24 design was developed into the Watkins 25 in 1983, as well as many other designs. Development Glass Laminates built the Islander 24 for designer McGlasson, who had designed it as a fiberglass version of his wooden boat design, the Catalina Islander. The Columbia 24 was created by increasing the freeboard height and adding a new deck and coach house, based upon the design of the Columbia 29. The Islander 24 moulds incorporated a wooden planking look that was from the original wooden boat imprint. The wooden planking effect was not used on the Columbia designs, however. Production The design was built in the United States by Glass Laminates. The company was later known as Columbia Yachts. A total of 1,125 of all three models were bu ...
