About: Keelboat

An Entity of Type: ship, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

A keelboat is a riverine cargo-capable working boat, or a small- to mid-sized recreational sailing yacht. The boats in the first category have shallow structural keels, and are nearly flat-bottomed and often used leeboards if forced in open water, while modern recreational keelboats have prominent fixed fin keels, and considerable draft. The two terms may draw from cognate words with different final meaning. Historical account of two keelboats published in the original Courier Journal of Lafayette, Indiana, in 1833:

  • Ein Kielboot ist ein Segelfahrzeug, das an seiner Rumpfunterseite einen schweren Ballastkiel in Form einer Flosse trägt. Der Kiel besteht meist aus Blei oder Gusseisen und ist in der Bilge (tiefste Stelle im Rumpf) mittels der Kielbolzen mit dem Schiffsrumpf verschraubt (Ausnahme Schwenkkiel). Das Gewicht des Kiels kann mehr als 50 % des Gesamtgewichts des Bootes ausmachen. (de)
  • A keelboat is a riverine cargo-capable working boat, or a small- to mid-sized recreational sailing yacht. The boats in the first category have shallow structural keels, and are nearly flat-bottomed and often used leeboards if forced in open water, while modern recreational keelboats have prominent fixed fin keels, and considerable draft. The two terms may draw from cognate words with different final meaning. A keep boat, keelboat, or keel-boat is a type of usually long, narrow cigar-shaped riverboat, or unsheltered water barge which is sometimes also called a poleboat—that is built about a slight keel and is designed as a boat built for the navigation of rivers, shallow lakes, and sometimes canals that were commonly used in America including use in great numbers by settlers making their way west in the century-plus of wide-open western American frontiers. They were also used extensively for transporting cargo to market, and for exploration and trading expeditions, for water transport was then most effective means to move bulky or heavy cargo. Keelboats were similar to riverboats, but like other barges were unpowered and were typically propelled and steered with oars or setting poles—usually the latter. Keelboats have been used for exploration, such as during the Lewis and Clark Expedition, but were primarily used to transport cargo or settlers in the early 19th century. The process of moving a keelboat upriver was extremely difficult, though current dependent. Most of these keelboats were 50 to 80 feet (15 to 24 m) long and 15 feet (5 m) wide. They usually had a cabin in the middle or at the rear, but were sometimes constructed with an open deck. Mike Fink is probably the most noted keelboater in history. Historical account of two keelboats published in the original Courier Journal of Lafayette, Indiana, in 1833: We stop the press to announce the arrival this morning of the steam-boat, REPUBLICAN, Toll, Master from the rapids of the Wabash. The Republican had in tow keel boats, "the Hoosier Lady" and "the Hoosier Boy," bringing freight to Lafayette, Messrs Taylor & Harter, Taylor & Li J. McCormick, J. B. Seamen and Hunter, and for Messrs, Ewing of the Bridge at Logansport. This is the first arrival at Lafayette this year.We understand the Republican is going to try and ascend the Wabash at Logansport. If she is successful she be the first one that ever has been, and with entitlement to the premium, which we learn is been offered by General Tipton and other enterprising and worthy citizens of that first arrival. The Wabash is in steam boating condition, and we may experience several arrivals, in a few days. (en)
  • Un quillard est un voilier possédant un lest, placé très bas, généralement au bout d'un plan de dérive (que l'on appelle alors quille) et lui permettant d'avoir un couple de redressement important sans surcharger outre mesure son déplacement. Le terme « quillard » est généralement utilisé en voile sportive, les voiliers de travail ou de transport ayant une stabilité de formes, non dépendante d'un lest. La quille peut être unique et centrée ou quelquefois en deux ailerons parallèles (bi-quille) ou deux ailerons en tandem (rare). Dans les voiliers de compétition actuels, notamment les voiliers de 60 pieds participant par exemple à la course du Vendée Globe, la quille est orientable dans le sens latéral pour augmenter encore le couple de rappel et permettre le redressement éventuel en cas de chavirage complet. Ces voiliers augmentent aussi, pour certaines allures de près, la surface anti-dérive par des appendices supplémentaires latéraux, des dérives rétractables. L'opposé du quillard est le dériveur qui utilise ses formes et un lest mobile pour sa stabilité. Certains voiliers sont au milieu de ce concept, ce sont les dériveurs lestés. (fr)
  • La barca a chiglia (in inglese keelboat) è una categoria di natante, solitamente a vela, dotata di una chiglia per la navigazione. In questo si differenzia dalle derive (in inglese dinghies) e dai multiscafi (in inglese multihulls). (it)
  • Kölbåt, en typ av segelbåt där kölen helt består av eller innehåller ballast. Ballasten är till för att sänka segelbåtens tyngdpunkt och därmed förbättra segelbåtens tvärskeppsstabilitet. Breda kölbåtar kan ha en lättare ballastköl, eftersom bredden på skrovet också bidrar till stabiliteten. Denna marinrelaterade artikel saknar väsentlig information.
