Orphan date February 2009 Bill Lee is the designer of many famous ocean racing yacht s, and one of the founders of the Santa Cruz school of boatbuilding, known to many as the Wizard . Several of his designs achieved notoriety in the 1970s, with Chutzpah and Merlin having won the Transpacific Yacht Race from Los Angeles to Honolulu many times. Merlin set and held the course record several times as well, shaving days off the prior fastest times. Mr. Lee s designs are noted for having been narrower and much lighter, often half the weight of competitors at times. Citation needed date August 2008 His designs helped define the class of boat known as a ULDB , or ultra light displacement boat, which tend to excel at surfing downwind with spinnaker s in heavy breeze. These boats required fewer crew, made better use of scarce resources in their construction, and generally attracted highly skilled sailors with big wave surfing backgrounds at breaks such as Steamer s Lane , Ghost Trees and Mavericks location Mavericks . Many folks had to get their hair cut before sailing on one of Lee s ULDBs since they went so fast their hair often got quite tussled.

Henry and Edward Cadnam of Pitsmoor , Sheffield . On the occasion of the launching of a boat it was common to invite local people to celebrate the launch. Local teachers and schoolchildren came along and a gala was planned. It was customary at this yard to invite people to stand on the boat during the launch to enjoy the rush into the water. Upwards of 100 people some accounts say 150 , mainly children from 11 16, were standing upon the boat during the launch. Owing to the narrow river channel, boats at this yard were launched sideways. As the boat slid down the slipway towards the water, the people on board rushed towards the river side of the boat to get a better view of the boat hitting the water. This caused the boat to overbalance on its keel , throwing the people on the deck into the river. The boat landed on top of many of the people who had been thrown into the river, drowning them. Although members of the gathering managed to rescue some, sixty four people died in the disaster, either instantly, or not long after being retrieved from the river. ref name RW cite web title The Masbrough Boat Disaster publisher Rotherham Web url http www.rotherhamweb.co.uk h botdis.htm accessdate 2010 10 08 ref Fifty of those ... more details

Consuta was a revolutionary form of construction of watertight hulls for boats and marine aircraft, comprising four veneers of mahogany planking interleaved with waterproofed calico and stitched together with copper wire. The technique was patented by Sam Saunders of Goring on Thames and was first used on the 1898 Umpire Rowing umpire s steam launch of the same name. Having been restored, the steam launch Consuta was returned to service on the River Thames on 15 October 2001. ref The Consuta Trust ref After opening the S. E. Saunders boatyard at East Cowes on the Isle of Wight , the technique was further used to build the crew and engine gondolas for HMA1 Mayfly, Britain s first airship. Later, the same technique was used to construct the hull of the Sopwith Bat Boat, the early flying boat that won the Mortimer Singer prize The technique remained in use until waterproof glues became available in the 1950s.
