Comment cirer un skiff?
Quel préparation faite-vous avant (et durant) la saison de voile?
Merci,
Robert

2) poncage
3) polish au teflon avant chaque regatte

Sinon, certaines classes interdisent le polish à des fins autres que de réparation. C'est le cas des 4000. Vous pouvez nettoyer au produit vaisselle, mais pas au cif car légèrement abrasif. Ne parlons donc pas d'un polish... Ceci dit, je crais qu'il n'y ait aucun moyen de vérifier.
Enfin, pour cirer un bateau plutôt que d'uitliser de l'huile de coude, une polisheuse est vivement conseillé.

A part ca j'ai jamais pense au probleme de la derive, mais mes equipiers n'en ont jamais parle (moi je vais jamais sur la derive)
Et oui, la polisheuse, c'est pratique

J'ai tout de même vu un vieux 505 bois tout graphite sous la flotaison.
Ca devait être sympa: montée sur la dérive (type planche à savon) et puis une fois à terre tout le monde te regarde et parie pour estimer le nombre de déssalage en fonction de la taille et de la noirceur des tache.

Le Graphite! c'est de la préhistoire ton truc!
A peu prés oui.... Mais me traite pas de vieux pour autant!! angry5;
J'avais un copain qui passait son temps à graphiter son 445.. Remarque il fallait bien ça... :

Voici ce qu'en pense Frank Bethwaite dans un article paru dans Seahorse.
This is an article published in Seahorse, issue "June 2000".
It has always been a discussion: To polish or to sand with 400 grit. Although water seems to run smoother over the sanded surface, is this what we want? Is friction really decreased by sanding? Read what Frank Bethwaite has to tell about it:
Polish and skin friction
Our overriding object in building what has since become the 29er was that "it should sail like a skiff to train for a skiff". This meant designing for tacking downwind, with downwind speeds approaching wind speed. However, this was always going to be increasingly difficult with this smaller boat, because small boats do not enjoy the speeds natural to bigger boats.
The "dynamically humpless hull" offered one path, but because nobody knows what makes a hull "humpless" this was a case of try it and see. Julian suggested that his current to Eighteen footer design would scale down better than the 49er would. So I did the sums to size the new boat for two healthy adolescents, lofted the smaller boat and got on with building it from narrow timber planks edge glued and glassed inside out.
It was always a possibility that the scaling down to 0.79 the size of the Eighteen might alter its dynamic characteristics. So as soon as it was fit to float, we towed it at various speeds and weights to establish whether or not this smaller shape developed the hump in it's drag curve, which is normally expected, or whether it remained another of the strange "humpless" genre that we seem to have happened upon. Its surface, undercoated and dry sanded with 80-grit paper, was fair but not polished. Not surprisingly the drags were higher than expected. Further, there was a hump, but this was a different sort of hump. A dynamic hump would have given a steep drag rise from about six to eight knots, in other words, just above it's 5kt hull speed, and this would have become steeper at heavier weights. What we had measured was a very steep hump between four and six knots, which did not change at all between light (160kg) and heavy (230kg) total weight. We concluded that whatever the reason, this was not a dynamic hump, so we had what we wanted and proceeded. That was in March '97.
Two years later we measured the drag of a polished production 29er. The drag curves, both at 500lb (230kg), of the polished and the unpolished hulls are shown in Fig1. What they show is the different effect on drag of 1) skin friction and 2) a turbulent boundary layer.
Skin Friction.
The smoothest surface always gives the smallest friction, so at all speeds the polished hull will have a fraction less drag than the rough one.
Boundary layer.
A laminar boundary layer will give about half the drag of a turbulent one.
What Fig1 shows are three separate boundary layer regimes as between the two boats.
1) From rest up to some very low speeds the boundary layer is always laminar. In this case this speed is about three knots for the boat with the rougher surface. (You can see that by looking at your wake close to the transom when the boundary layer flow begins to become turbulent.) So from rest up to about three knots the small difference in drag is due solely to the greater skin friction of the rougher surface.
2) At about four knots the rough surface trips the boundary layer of the rougher boat into turbulent flow over the whole wetted surface. The smooth surface of the polished boat continues to run laminar. At five knots this trip into turbulent flow has nearly doubled the drag of the rougher boat.
3) At about six knots the boundary layer over the polished hull begins to trip from laminar to turbulent. This starts at the stern. As speed increases the transition point moves progressively forward towards the bow, until at 10 knots the polished hull too is running almost entirely turbulent and there remains only the small difference in drag due to skin friction.
David Maiden, President of the 49er Association of Australia, commented that he had used a slow-dissolving detergent as a tracer, in order to find out more about the flow over his 49er. He measured that the transition line from a laminar to a turbulent boundary layer was 3ft or 4ft aft of the bow at a speed of about seven knots.
All these measurements suggest that it does pay to polish, and to polish well.

Je pense qu'il est interessant de connaitre l'influence de tout ce travail ...

Avez-vous un URL pour l'article pour qu'on puisse voir les graphiques?

Ca ne fait pas de traces?
A Quiberon il y avait un 4000 avec une coque rouge superbe. J'aurai bien voulu lui demander mais le proprio n'est pas inscrit sur le site...

4US est rouge metalise et jaune et on le polish a la machine regulierement. Si tu veux enc.... les mouches, tu peux passer une peau de daim apres pour que ca brille
... j'avoue on le fait
