NOTES
ON
BOATS

Boats today spend as much
time out Of the water as In 1t
often more. The reason may
be caused by a shortage OF
mooring space, or perhaps the
skipper is an amphibiphile--a
lake or bay hopper or highway
pilot looking for new frontiers
to navigate.
Whatever the reasons, this
trend towards putting boats on
wheels has been a boon to the
trailer business. And it's good
news to the boat-minded be-
cause it means better and bet
ter trailers. But let's not lose
sight Of the fact that a trailer
is q piece of equipment that
needs care and maintenance If
it is to continue giving good
service.
Prevent Rust. When you buy
a new trailer from your
dealer, look 1t over carefully for
scratches and spots on the
metal frame where the paint
may have been scraped or
Clipped off. Such spots should
be touched up with a rust re-
sistant, and in many cases it
would be a good idea to go
over the entire frame and
metal parts with a coat Of
marine paint.
Check Fastenings. One thing
to bear in mind is the method
of assembling the trailer. In
most cases the trailer has been
shipped completely knocked
down, which means. of course.
that the dealer has to assem-
bic it.
Now it stands to reason that
with the small margin of profit
involved, the dealer isn't going
to waste any more time than
he has to in getting the trailer
put together. The average
small-boat trailer takes any
where from three to four
hours to assemble, using ordi-
nary methods.
AS with any mechanical APP
paratus, the machinery should
be inspected and tuned up"
before putting it to use. Nuts
and bolts should be gone over
for proper set and tension;
missing lock washers may be
spotted. Remember the trailer
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1958-06-27

HIGB TIDES FOR CHESAPEAKE BAY POINTS

States require either a single
or double set Of safety chains
between trailer and car in case
of hitch failure. There's q lot
of sense behind this regula-
ton; no matter how able q
hitching device you may have,
it can fail through improper
fitting, looSeness or accidental
breakage.
To be on the safe side, make
sure the hitch is properly SET
and tight; check over the chain
assembly and connectors for
any signs Of wear and loose
ness. Then see to 1t that they
are secured to the car frame
in such a way that II the hitch
should let go, you won't lose
the trailer-and the boat!

is going to be put through its
PAGES down the highways; it
viii be dunked in salty brine
or muddy waters many times
in its lifetime. A vital bolt can
work loose If it isn't taken up
tightly and securely locked.
It's not a pleasant sight to see
a beautiful boat run aground
on a crowded highway.
Wash Down. Rain water isn't
too damaging to your trailer,
but salt water and brackish
river water can be fatal. Wash
down the trailer with fresh
water after every dInking
Grease and Oil. Wheel bear
ings, springs and oil cups
should be periodically checked
and filled.

and that safety Is essential 10
enjoyment Of the sport.
Among the leaders In pro-
noting boating safety Is the
Potomac River Power Squad
ron, a member Of the United
States Power Squadrons. The
squadron is composed OF boat
men from throughout the
washington area. Closest
neighbors are the Patuxent
River and Annapolis Power
Squadrons.
The Potomac Squadron Is
also one of the Oldest. being In
existence since October. 1914.
The Power Squadrons dc
their safety work through edu-
cation. They train boat own
ers, prospective boat owners
their wives, and those who
merely like boats in the funda-
mentals of seamanship.
Glasses Held Each Year
For the. beginners, there are
classes in plotting and small
boat handling. These start In
the fall and continue through
the winter, with a formal grad
uation in the spring. To join
the squadron. a boatman must
pass this course.
I New members then are ELI
gible for advanced courses, such
as junior navigation, naviga-
ton, advanced plotting. sea-
manship, engine maintenance,
sailing and the weather.
Throughout the summer, a
busy schedule Of rendezvous
featured by navigators' contests
is conducted. Here the class
room skipper and navigator get
the chance to test their skill
at plotting or navigation under
real pressure.
