What's the average cruising speed of an asian sailing junk (non-motorized) in miles per hour?  (Answers: 4)
 Boats & Boating
 I'm interested in the traditional asian sailing boats called 'junks'.Here are a few photo links of various junks which can be found by searching "sailing junk" on the Flickr website:http://www.flickr.com/photos/52329227@N00/91698345/in/photostream/http://www.flickr.com/photos/28032494@N00/175053466/http://www.flickr.com/photos/stu_plaw/62771991/http://www.flickr.com/photos/darryn/53050741/I would like to find the typical cruising speed of these type of sail boats, or the approximate speed range that these sailing junks can travel.
 Displacement hull speed is what ships travel at (unless a planing hull with a huge sail, a hydrofoil, or massive horsepower is involved). It is approximately (in
knots) the square root of the waterline (in feet).That last photo seems to have a waterline length of 30-35 feet. So it could do 5-6 knots (6-7 mph) under favorable
wind conditions.Going "off-the-wind" would depend on how much of a keel and rudder they have. They could probably make a 1 or 2 knots headway with a quartering
headwind. Beating straight upwind (tacking back and forth)? I don't know, but I don't see a streamlined enough hull nor enough of a weighted keel to do that very
well.
Sailing lessons for a cruising dinghy or Hobie Wave?  (Answers: 2)
 Boats & Boating
 I want to get a little sailing dinghy or a Hobie Wave to cruise around the marina.. Do I need to get a full-blown asa sailing license? What's the best way to learn? The full-blown license (lessons) cost $600.. Is there an alternative to a simpler license or to learn?I live in Long Beach, CA
 I would recommend getting lessons of some sort, although they may not be necessary if you have had experience with boating; most things in sailing just require
knowledge of where the wind is coming from, and how it hits your sail(s). Once you get the points of sail down (google "points of sail") you should be able to go
and actually do the thing. A site to help you:http://www.cal-sailing.org/library/bluebook/dinghy3.htmlThis helped me, I hope that link is right.To further answer
your question, a license is not needed for a small boat such as a Hobie Wave (which is an awesome catamaran by the way), at least where I live (MN). Once you get
into bigger boats, I think you need some licensing, but to my knowledge it is not necessary for a small boat such as the ones mentioned.The best way to learn is by
going out there and doing it. Once you have some basics down, find a day with some steady but slow winds and try to execute what you've learned. Build on your
knowledge through practice. This is easier said than done, but it really pays off. Sailing is more than just theory; it requires some hand eye coordination and
dexterity, which can only be gained by actually sailing.
