# Melges 17

The Melges 17 is an American scow-hulled sailing dinghy that was designed by Reichel/Pugh as a one-design racer and first built in 2005.

## Production

The design has built by Melges Performance Sailboats in the United States since 2005 and remains in production.

## Design

The design was conceived to provide a boat for youth sailors to move up to from the Laser, 420 and the X Boat, as well as for adults couples to sail.
The Melges 17 is a racing sailboat, with the hull built predominantly of fiberglass. It has a fractional sloop rig with carbon fiber spars; a scow hull; a transom-hung, aluminum extrusion rudder controlled by a tiller with an extension and twin retractable, aluminum extrusion bilgeboards. It displaces 335 lb (152 kg) and is normally sailed by two sailors, with an optimal crew weight of 265 to 350 lb (120 to 159 kg).
The boat has a draft of 3.96 ft (1.21 m) with a bilgeboard extended. With both bilgeboards retracted it can be operated in shallow water, beached or transported on a boat trailer.
For sailing downwind the design may be equipped with an asymmetrical spinnaker of 280 sq ft (26 m$^2$), flown from a retractable bowsprit.

## Operational history

The boat was at one time supported by a class club that organized racing events, the Melges 17 Class Association.

The Melges 20 is a racing keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass. It has a fractional sloop rig with a roller furling jib. The hull has a plumb stem, a slightly reverse transom, a transom-hung rudder controlled by a tiller and a retractable lifting keel, with a lead bulb weight. It displaces 1,146 lb (520 kg).
The boat has a draft of 4.50 ft (1.37 m) with the keel extended. With it retracted the boat can be operated in shallow water or transported on a boat trailer.
The boat is factory-equipped with a small outboard motor for docking and maneuvering. It is sailed by a crew of two to four sailors with no class weight restrictions.
For sailing downwind the design may be equipped with a masthead asymmetrical spinnaker of 430 sq ft (40 m$^2$), flown from a retractable bowsprit mounted on the starboard side of the bow.

## Operational history

The boat is supported by an active class club that organizes racing events, the International Melges 20 Class Association.
In a 2008 review by two writers for Sailing World magazine, Dave Reed wrote, "the boat has superb balance, and obviously, the faster we went the better it felt. Carving up and down to catch waves was easy and the boat quickly jumped on surfs ... and frankly, had we had one less body, we could have done another tick or two better." Stuart Streuli reported, "the Melges 20 is a hoot to sail. It tracks like a train upwind, rewarding a steady hand on the tiller, and is very nimble off the wind. We hit speeds of 13 to 14 knots downwind in 15 to 20 knots of wind and very rough seas. It’s tippy, and much more like a dinghy than the 24. When the lulls hit, the boat would quickly roll to windward, both upwind and down."
# Scharnhorst effect

The Scharnhorst effect is a hypothetical phenomenon in which light signals travel slightly faster than c between two closely spaced conducting plates. It was first predicted in a 1990 paper by Klaus Scharnhorst of the Humboldt University of Berlin, Germany. He showed using quantum electrodynamics that the effective refractive index n, at low frequencies, in the space between the plates was less than 1. Gabriel Barton and Scharnhorst in 1993 claimed that either signal velocity can exceed c or that the imaginary part of n is negative.

## Explanation

Vacuum fluctuations exist even in a perfect vacuum. The vacuum fluctuations are influenced by conducting plates nearby. As a photon travels through a vacuum its propagation is influenced by these vacuum fluctuations.
A prediction made by this assertion is that the speed of a photon will be increased if it travels between two Casimir plates. The ultimate effect would be to increase the apparent speed of that photon. The closer the plates are, the stronger the change in the vacuum fluctuations, and the higher the speed of light.
The effect, however, is predicted to be minuscule. A photon traveling between two plates that are 1 micrometer apart would increase the photon's speed by only about one part in 10$^{36}$. This change in light's speed is too small to be detected with current technology, which prevents the Scharnhorst effect from being tested at this time.

## Causality

The possibility of superluminal photons has caused concern because it might allow for the violation of causality by sending information faster than c. However, several authors (including Scharnhorst) argue that the Scharnhorst effect cannot be used to create causal paradoxes.
