1557.7 | Club Med II | SNOC01::RADKEHOWARD | | Sun Dec 13 1992 00:08 | 28 |
| The Club Med II was in Sydney this past week. Although she doesn't fit
the classic definition of a "Tall Ship" she is a modern version of a
commercial sailing ship - a cruise ship with sails.
Club Med II is two months old and is on a shake-down cruise in the
South Pacific. She cost $220 million (Australian) to build. She sails
with a crew of 32.
Some of her stats are interesting: Maximum speed under sail is 14
knots, curise speed is 12 knots. LOA is 187 meters (613 feet), beam is
20 meters (65.6 feet), draft is 5 mteres (16.4 feet). Seven sails with
an area of 2,500 square meters (26,910 sq feet) supported by five
masts. Everything is controlled by hydraulics including the furlers, sheets
and booms. She uses "computerised ballast" and retractable stabilisers
to reduce heeling. They claim that during a Caribbean run Med I saved
53,311 liters of diesel by using the sails over 70% of the running
time.
We watched her depart Sydney Friday evening. She was under full sail
passing the Opera House just prior to sunset. The sight was
impressive.
In case anyone is interested she will be sailing out of Noumea for the
next six months or so (for tax reasons I am told) at a favorable rate.
Cheers,
Howard
