The on Lake Mazinaw (hwy 41 above Bon Echo Provincial Park) is hosting their yearly Sailing event on , for all types of sailboats on the lake.

kind of like a with the weekend format like the Rendezvous of past years. If you wish to be part of this group to sail and socialize with other Sandpiper owners then don't delay. If you do plan to attend, let Dennis know to arrange for dock space.

Format:
- Park & Launch Friday, at Browns Marina, Tent & Trailer Park ($5.00 a day).
- Sleep on our your boat.
- Tie up at "Sapphire" Dennis's Dock (Fri/Sat/Sun).
- Bring Your own food and some for potluck meals.
- Have a Fun and bring an adventures attitude.

John Driscoll, With the Solent just recovering from the onslaught of an Autumn gale, we set full sail in order to beat out of the shelter of the Medina against the tide, and the Sandpiper showed herself to be lively, from the onset. She pointed high and sailed fast enough over the tide to allow us to doge the floating bridge and the ferry without having to resort to using the outboard.
Kenneth Duxbury, Any sailor who can handle a cruising dinghy will find Sandpiper 565 a delight. Yesterday in a spanking breeze off the Cornish coast I put her through her paces under full sail. She came through with flying colours. For this versatile craft has a performance and quality of finish which would be hard to better for her class.

Sandpiper Standard Boat Specifications:

B lue hull with white deck in handlaid fibreglass, with non-skid surfaces and self draining cockpit floor and seats. 4-berth accommodation with cushions. Cabin hand lockers and stowage compartments.

NorseBoat vs Sandpiper 565

A round 1 mini-cruiser madness match-up.

Two very different boats face-off here, but it should be a close contest anyway.

The 17.5-foot NorseBoat is a relative newcomer to the small-boat scene, but its connection to craft from the 19th century New Jersey shore are readily visible.

For our test sail and review we asked company owner, Kevin Jeffrey what inspired the boat he and designer Chuck Pa…

Review of Sandpiper 565

Basic specs..

The hull is made of fibreglass. Generally, a hull made of fibreglass requires only a minimum of maintenance during the sailing season. And outside the sailing season, just bottom cleaning and perhaps anti-fouling painting once a year - a few hours of work, that's all.

The boat equipped with a fractional rig. A fractional rig has smaller headsails which make tacking easier, which is an advantage for cruisers and racers, of course. The downside is that having the wind from behind often requires a genaker or a spinnaker for optimal speed.

DaggerBoard

The Sandpiper 565 is equipped with a daggerboard keel. A daggerboard is a lifting keel that can be lowered and raised, allowing the boat to enter shallow waters as well.

The keel is made of iron. Many people prefer lead keel in favour of iron. The main argument is that lead is much heavier than iron and a lead keel can therefore be made smaller which again result in less wet surface, i.e. less drag. In fact iron is quite heavy, just 30% less heavy than lead, so the advantage of a lead keel is often overstated.

The boat can sail close to the beach as the draft is just 0.25 - 0.35 meter (0.82 - 1.12 ft) dependent of the load. See immersion rate below.

Sailing characteristics

This section covers widely used rules of thumb to describe the sailing characteristics. Please note that even though the calculations are correct, the interpretation of the results might not be valid for extreme boats.

What is Capsize Screening Formula (CSF)?

The capsize screening value for Sandpiper 565 is 2.67, indicating that this boat would not be accepted to participate in ocean races.

What is Theoretical Maximum Hull Speed?

The theoretical maximal speed of a displacement boat of this length is 5.2 knots. The term "Theoretical Maximum Hull Speed" is widely used even though a boat can sail faster. The term shall be interpreted as above the theoretical speed a great additional power is necessary for a small gain in speed.

The immersion rate is defined as the weight required to sink the boat a certain level. The immersion rate for Sandpiper 565 is about 66 kg/cm, alternatively 370 lbs/inch. Meaning: if you load 66 kg cargo on the boat then it will sink 1 cm. Alternatively, if you load 370 lbs cargo on the boat it will sink 1 inch.

Sailing statistics

This section is statistical comparison with similar boats of the same category. The basis of the following statistical computations is our unique database with more than 26,000 different boat types and 350,000 data points.

What is Motion Comfort Ratio (MCR)?

What is L/B (Length Beam Ratio)?

What is a Ballast Ratio?

What is Displacement Length Ratio?

What is SA/D (Sail Area Displacement ratio)?

Maintenance

When buying anti-fouling bottom paint, it's nice to know how much to buy. The surface of the wet bottom is about 10m 2 (107 ft 2 ). Based on this, your favourite maritime shop can tell you the quantity you need.

Sandpiper 565

Sandpiper 565 is a 18 ′ 6 ″ / 5.6 m monohull sailboat designed by Leonardo da Costa Sayago and built by C&L Boatworks starting in 1972.

Rig and Sails

Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3

SA : Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
D : Displacement in pounds.

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Ballast / Displacement * 100

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
LWL: Waterline length in feet

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )

D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
LOA: Length overall in feet
Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

The SANDPIPER 565 was first manufactured in 1972 by Sandpiper Marine Ltd. of Southampton, England. Later built by CL Sailboats (formerly C&L Boatworks) of Canada. (Royalties not paid) Another version was built under license in Sweden called OCKELBO OS 19.

Roller Furling on a Sandpiper 565

Thread starter Willybdriver
Start date Sep 4, 2007
Brand-Specific Forums
Other Sailboats

Willybdriver

A friend and I recently acquired Sandpiper #907. There was a lot of extra gear supplied including the hardware for roller furling top and bottom fittings.The small manual mentions the gear but gives little information on its installation.My question is: do you use the cable in the fore sail to replace the forward stay or can the forward stay remain? The rigging is similar to my Hobie 14, which used the cable in the genoa as the fore stay.This leads to another question: do we need to remove the brass clips from the genoa if using it to replace the forestay?

Attachments

Can you identify the furling manufacturer? If you can, go to their website and read (or download) their installation manual. Just about every furling maker has their manual on line.

Sail Into The Sunset

Have You Talked To Guys On The CL Forum Hey Willybdriver have you tried the CL Sailboats Forum Lots of helpful guys there.www.clsailboats.com go to info centre then forum

roller furling Strongly suggest you do not remove the forstay. I have sailed a 565 for 20 years with the furling gear supplied by CL and have had little problem.Raise your sail with the top piece in place and hook the sail to the bottom with a hank so you can change sails when you want. If you use the sail as the forstay you would have to lower the mast in order to change a sail.Regarding the hanks --you may have to remove them if they get tangled,I have.Have fun

Great boat for Simcoe! How it's installed has a lot to do with the hardware you have. If you have just an upper swivel and the lower drum unit, I would suspect that you would use the sails luff. HOWEVER this wire for the furling is usually heavier than the normal wire luff. At least it was for mine. Like John said you'd have to drop the mast to change the sail. This was never a problem for me when I kept the boat ina marina. I had no need to change the sail. One consideration though, is that when the sail is partly furled, the shape isn't the greatest. Usually this setup is more for storage, ie sail fully set when sailing, and fully furled when not. You would need to have the hanks removed from the luff.Personally, I would stick to hank on sails, and sell the furler. Rig up a good main jiffy reef to reduce sail when there's a blow. Where are you going to sail her? I launched at the public ramp at Hawkstone beach once. Very shallow, and there's a hydro line to watch out for.Fair windsEric

furling question for a Sandpiper Thank you for all your great responses. I will keep all of it in mind.As per your suggestions, I will be keeping the front stay, and using the jib cable for furling. I found a paragraph in the manual dealing with this and by reading between the lines, it basically says to do it this way. The raising of the sail with the halyard to be very tight could be achieved with a single pully on the sail top fitting, not mentioned in the manual.This arrangement is for the young woman who is going to be using the boat most often. She is not comfortable walking around on the fore deck.I like simplicity but must consider her needs.I live at the Hawkestone Yacht Club on the bottom of Mill St. with the road allowance and lake beside my house. This is where she will be launching until she becomes a member of our club and eventually gets a slip. For the moment she can trailer it home, just up the road, then maybe as a daysailer member keep it, mast up, in the back parking lot.

I'd be willing to look it over;D Will cost you a sail of course;DI rigged a simple jib downhaul, to quickly dowse the sail.Let me know if you need a hand. I'm just a short drive away!Cheers

Come have a sail Sandy and I have rigged the furling, lights and the hitch on her truck. The Honda 4 stroke has been a pain for it didn't come with a fuel tank or hose. The young lady found they leaked and thru it away. We have not been able to find a source for the Honda fitting for the new little tank she bought.Frustration has set in major but we are going to launch this boat tomorrow morning around 9:00am and have ourselves a sail. Then paddle to the club and tie up at their dock for a day or so until the motor issue gets resolved. You are most welcome to come over, it would be a privilege to have someone with knowledge about this sweet little boat.Sandy is the owner, she lives on Mill St. in Hawkestone, the boat is right in front in her driveway.Hope to see you tomorrow.

I have a Sandpiper 565 and the keel is stuck and will not lower down. The crew mechanism is fine except it rises up into the cabin when I try to lower the keel. Any suggestion how to get the keel unstuck?

This is usually caused by marine growth in the center board trunk. Does your Sandpiper sail in salt water? If so then barnacle growth can easily jam up the works. I'd find a long, thin, flat tool (something like a metal ruler) to use to dislodge any marine growth around the center board and trunk. Mask, snorkel or scuba equipment would also help. Sometimes going out on a 'bouncy' day (when there are waves) can be enough to free up a snag like this. Unfortunately this is this also the kind of day when you would want your center board deployed. Good luck.

Thanks for the advice. I have been using a long saw blade to slide up around the keel. There is some blockage in some places, have not got them worked out yet. Not sure now if it is marine growth or something else. I have the boat up on a slip way but it is hard working on my back reaching up. I have now cut part of the top casing off and will try working down the top. I have tried pounding it with a sledge hammer but it still does not budge. I will keep working at it until I can eliminate all the blockages and hope that works but I expect that my sailing season is over before it started..

I don't have a sandpiper, but in my boat, the board is lofted on a steel cable. I can pour a little bleach into the trunk from above, clears all barnacles.

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried your suggestion but the keel is still stuck. I thought it might be barnacles but mayeb not.

The bleach kills the barnacles but really don't remove them... Remove the top cap of your center board well and using a steel yard stick or a flat piece of steel and slide it down between the center board and the well. This will help remove anything that shouldn't be there. Also check the pivot pin and the babbit bearing that your CB swings on. It could be flat on the top and creating fiction in lowering it. Also check the CB itself. If a low grade of steel it could have swollen with rust and causing problems from that. Check your well box and see if the wood(?) is swollen from a lack of paint maintenance care.

I have removed the top of the center board well and it is easier to work on the keel than from below. The steel yard stick gets stuck in some places and it is difficult getting it back out. I will keep trying to work it around. Some clearances are only wide enough for a saw blade. If the steel part of the keel is swollen with rust or the well box is swollen, what are the remedies? Thanks

On the steel Center board. Have the boat on the hard and drop it out and determine if it is salvagable or not. If it is, clean the rust off, pickle the steel then primer and paint it with bottom paint. On the swollen wood of the CB Well you need to let it dry out then primer & paint it with bottom paint. But while the CB is out, you can check for dry rot and other ills that may affect the wood structure of your CB well and keel. Check the pivot pin for wear and the babbit bearing also. Along with the connection point of your CB Pendant.

Finally got the keel unstuck, with aid of reciprical saw and prying. Thanks for you suggestions.

Thanks for the information. Now I just have to get the keel out.

Looks like you have top and bottom access so work a wire saw along the keel sides. You would need a friemd below and a good blocking job on the keel. Use this wire saw $7.50

Sounds like you also need to address reattaching the mechanism?

The CB on my sandpiper 565 got badly stuck twice so I am glad to share the solution with others. First is to explain that barnacles had grown in the well. On screwing the CB up, any increase of resistance as you turn the crank, is a sign that you are getting it stuck. Stop, do not force the centre boars up. The structure is not designed to exert the same tonnage of force in the other direction. You can try, but the tonnage of force will just pop the table mount off. To get unstuck, get a bow saw blade of a good long length 24" approx. Wear thick leather gloves. Try to go all around the gap to locate the places that are seized. Saw away. Also I drilled open the top of the well head and poures hull cleaning acid down there. Next you can hammer with mallet or maul on the head of the jack screw. In desperation I drilled a large eye screw into the bottom of the CB and laid a crow bar through the eye of the screw. This allowed me to hammer a downward thrust /impact which did cause it to come loose. It is a tight fit to begin with. Any barnacle or antifoul build up or even deformation of the shape may result in a major friction point.

Sandpiper Owner'sReviews: (Email to us Yours! Mark Carter, Sandpiper 565, Tahlmorra. This is my first sailboat, and for my current needs it's ideal.It's been great to learn on, as it sails very well. At the same time, for the size of the boat it has a roomy cabin area that allows me to overnight in it quite comfortably (packed as for a backpacking trip).
Sandpiper 565 Sailboat Owners Group
T he Sandpiper 565 can be classified as a pocket or compact cruiser, or a micro-cruiser that is; small (18.6 feet or 5.65 meters), lightweight (1200 lbs), a sailboat with a cabin (headroom 4'4") intended for recreational cruising and overnight stays (sleeps 4), can be easily loaded onto a trailer and towed, and is very easy to beach.
Thinking of buying a Sandpiper had a few question
A Sandpiper with trailer, gear,and outboard could weigh around 1600 pounds or more. This is at or beyond the towing limit of some four-cylinder cars. With my Potter, it was an easy matter to launch for a short afternoon sail. Launching the Sandpiper for a short sail is more of a time commitment. Learning to sail one of these boats is not difficult.

stuck keel
The CB on my sandpiper 565 got badly stuck twice so I am glad to share the solution with others. First is to explain that barnacles had grown in the well. On screwing the CB up, any increase of resistance as you turn the crank, is a sign that you are getting it stuck. Stop, do not force the centre boars up.
