Stus-List Re: Balsa core history

[Lisle Kingery, PhD via CnC-List]

FWIW, this prompted me to take a look at the book "Heart of Glass:
Fiberglass boats and the men who made them": and some info on Balsa is on
p122,

"Balsa Core. The Baltek Corporation was the exclusive supplier to powerboat
builders of balsa planks for stiffening hull sides and bottoms. When balsa
was originally supplied in lengths with the grain running longitudinally,
Pearson had problems with water migrating away from the point of entry at
the deck hardware fasteners, causing delamination. Everett Perason recalls
that "We were using pieces 3 feet long by 1/2 inch thick by 2 inches wide.
We had some leaks at the fittings, which didn't make any sense. So I
started stacking this stuff up and cutting it on the bandsaw and making
end-grain balsa. I was doing that on Constitution Street when Alex Lippay
and Bob Levine came in from Baltek. They said "What are you doing". I sadi
"I got to turn this stuff the other way to stop the water from spreading.
They said "Jeez, this is what we should be doing." I said "You're right".
That's how Contourkore started. They took the end-grain idea and made
samples that we evaluated. They came up with a method of putting scrim on
it and so forth. In hindsight, I should have applied for a patent. I think
we were probably one of the first to use Contourkore, as early as 1963 in a
race boat hull. THe new product was brought to market in 1963 and 1964,
with Pearson as one of the its first few users and most vocal supporters.
Indeed, in 1981, Pearson sank a 2-square-foot basl cored panel in
Narragansett Bay, attached by change to his dock. After three years he
removed the panel from the water and had it analyzed. The results? No water
penetrated the balso more than 4 mils."

Best,

Lisle

Hey JohnKelly,

I imagine C did considerable testing to determine the strength of their

Stus-List Balsa core history

[CHARLES SCHEAFFER via CnC-List]

"Balsa core" gets some bad press and I was interested in how it came into 
boating, especially C

After some research, I learned:
Making things with a core was first used by Egyptians three thousand years ago. 
 Veneers of precious wood over a core of cheaper wood extended the use of 
precious materials.  The practice was lost in the middle ages and re-imagined 
in the 1700's when furniture makers wanted to make things from scarce woods.  

Later in the 1920's and 30's, balsa core was being harvested in Equador by a 
French company trying to market it in France in the 20's and 30's.  The Jewish 
French owners fled the Nazi takeover and emigrated to the US.  Their balsa was 
later used by DeHaviland in England to build the famous Mosquito two engine 
bombers in 1941.  Dehavilland built over 7700 of these 400+ mph planes using 
two Spitfire engines each.   They used a plywood vaneer over an endgrain balsa 
core.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTsnMKzmdWs=613s

The balsa industry lost a market after WWII but in the 70's, they convinced 
fiberglass boat builders to use balsa core and Hatteras sportfishing yachts 
were their first big client.  Almost all boat builders eventually started using 
balsa soon after, including C, Pearson, Santana, Cape Dory, Columbia, 
Catalina, Hunter, Olsen, Saber, Schock, J-Boats, Beneteau, Jeanneau, as well as 
all the power boat builders, too.  
https://www.company-histories.com/Baltek-Corporation-Company-History.html

Core comparisons:
https://www.cruisingworld.com/how/inner-layer-core-materials-sailboat-construction/

I personally think C did an industry leading job to perfect the process using 
fiberglass and balsa core to build a lightweight and strong structure, but that 
is better covered by John Kelly Cuthbertson or others with more personal 
knowledge.

me if that seemed at all reasonable and I said, no, it doesn’t. It

The article get even more bizarre by mentioning the suspect as a Royal 
Yachting Association Yachtmaster Certificate holder and drug smuggler 
who was earlier arrested on a burning sailboat with over 500 kg of 
cocaine off the coast of Nova Scotia and who later escaped police 
custody while at a hospital.    I hope both the vessel and the drug

owner describes his initial conversation with the coast guard, "They told me 
that my personal locator beacon had been activated and was showing a position 
in the middle of hurricane Larry, … They asked me if that seemed at all 
reasonable and I said, no, it doesn’t. It should be on the boat and the boat 
should be happily tied up at the Armdale Yacht Club.”

The article get even more bizarre by mentioning the suspect as a Royal Yachting 
Association Yachtmaster Certificate holder and drug smuggler who was earlier 
arrested on a burning sailboat with over 500 kg of cocaine off the coast of 
Nova Scotia and who later escaped police custody while at a hospital.I hope 
both the vessel and the drug smuggling boat thief survive.  I would love to 
watch the movie with a happy ending.

Stu, 

 

I didn’t RSVP because Calypso is being painted this week and I am providing 
prep, taping, clean up, and painters assistant services.

 

I do enjoy the rendezvous meetings and encourage you to try again in the ear 
future.

I have cancelled it.

 

Maybe we will have more interest once the sailing season has slowed down.

 

Stay safe ‘n’ healthy.

Stus-List HowToMarine's Rod Collins AKA Mainesail

[Danny Haughey via CnC-List]

Listers, I just heard Rod Collins, aka Maine Sail, aka Compass Marine, aka 
HowToMarine, had a hemorrhagic stroke last week. He has survived the stroke, is 
out of ICU and headed to Rehab.  Apparently he is already on the mend and 
joking around with nurses but, he's got quite a battle in his recovery ahead. 
Rodd has been an inspiration to many of us and has provided untold hours of 
support to the boating community through his website www.MarineHowTo.com and on 
the Musings with Maine Sail forum on Sailboatowners.com. Rodd has also worked 
with ABYC and Practical Sailor on issues relating to marine electrical systems. 
Personally, Rodd has been a guru. I am a frequent visitor to his site as well 
as a customer. The bulk of what I have learned about marine electrical systems 
has come from Rodd. I hope that his recovery is quick and that he is able to 
return to what he loved, helping others enjoy their boats and learn about 
marine systems.  When I have a new project to accomplish on my boats, 
MarineHowTo is always one of my first research tools.  He seems to have covered 
at least something on just about everything we could come upon in our boat 
maintenance and upgrades. Phil Herring has posted more information on 
SailboatOwners.com. Heres a link to his post: 
https://forums.sailboatowners.com/threads/maine-sail-update.1249931174/ 
Ill be sending a contribution to his recovery and hope others might be 
able to follow suit. DannyThanks to all of the subscribers that contributed to the list to help with the
