Russia FlagsFlag of RussiaThe modern Russian flag is one of the oldest designs to be in use in modern Europe, but it has not been used consistently since it was first adopted. Russia underwent many political changes over the course of the 20th century, and most of those political changes came with new flags. - Capital of Russia: Moscow
- Area of Russia: 16,995,800 sq. km
- Languages used in Russia: Russian

Colors and Symbolism of the European Russia FlagThe current Russian flag is a horizontal tricolor of white, blue, and red. The government of Russia has not explained the symbolic meanings of the colors, but the people of Russia have supplied their own interpretation. The white band is a symbol of both honesty and generosity, the blue band represents wisdom and loyalty, and the red band stands for courage and love. The three colors also reflect the three largest ethnic groups in Russia. Blue represents the Ukrainian people, red represents the Russian people, and white stands for the Belarusians. History of the European Russia FlagThe European Russia flag was first adopted in 1696, but it was originally reserved for use on ships. The flag's origins are difficult to prove, but the majority of stories say that they came from the flag of the Dutch Republic. Dutch shipwrights played a large role in the development of the Russian navy during that period, and they introduced naval flags to Russia at the same time. The Russian government wanted to follow the customs of the rest of Europe and fly flags on their ships, so they adapted the Dutch flag to meet their needs. The flag only represented the navy at that time, while the Russian Empire used a different flag. The Imperial flag was a horizontal tricolor of blue, yellow, and white, which was adopted in 1853 and fell out use in 1883. The naval flag spread to the Russian army at approximately the same time. The flag was replaced when revolutionary communists succeeded in overthrowing the Russian monarchy. The new European Russia flag had a solid red field with a gold emblem in the canton. It was first adopted in 1918, but the emblem on the flag changed regularly until the fall of the Soviet Union. Russia adopted the modern flag in 1993 after the communist government left power, and it has used it ever since. Popular Resource Pages - Flag Etiquette

Do anybody knows dimensions of halyard sheaves on the top of the Mast in O'Day32? I mean diameter and width. AttachmentsShoaldrafterKonstantin said: Do anybody knows dimensions of halyard sheaves on the top of the Mast in O'Day32? I mean diameter and width. Click to expand HI! Ed My boat is in Helsinki but I'm in the Moscow at the moment. Therefore I can't measure the sheaves now. I hoped that if I can get to know exact sizes, I can purchase new halyards prior to my trip to Helsinki. In addition I'm thinking about new synthetic halyards (old halyards are steel wire rope). P.S. Usual Russian measurements is metric. Good question, my main halyard is about 7/16 (I need to measure this to be sure) and I also have a another 3/16 wire rope as a spare working halyard (bosuns chair) A couple of years ago I tried to replace the main halyard by using a paper clip between the halyards and I never could get it past the truck and whats on my list is to inspect those sheaves to see whats going on.

The bitter end goes to a cleat on the boom. Releasing the end from the cleat allows the sail to hold up the boom, thus adjusting the shape of the sail. Ed K South Carolina, USA Hi Ed! Thanks for explanation. I didn't understand what is the additional rope on the top of the mast... Now it's clear for me! Re: Hi Ed! Konstantin: After I posted, I notice that I forgot to say line first goes thru turning block on end of mast then to cleat. That allows for adjusting leach for sail shape. Fair Winds, Ed K Konstantin: Let me try a 3rd time: Line goes from top of mast to turning block on end of boom to cleat. This allows adjustment of boom height and leach of main sail. I guess a technical diagram would be easier to post. I further guess that the topping lift could be further run to mast again and other blocks to lead back to cockpit so that you do not have to get on side deck to adjust? I might have to add organizer under mast next year to do that. Hummm... Ed K Konstantin here's a link for a company that can replace the sheaves with new ones for rope halyards http://www.rigrite.com/Spars/SparParts/Sheaves.html Also my 1978 32 has a label down below in the salon on the mast that says Schafer Spars and I've read that other ODays about that age had the same hope this helps identifying your mast for parts Hi RAD! I was in Helsinki last week and I've bought new plastic sheaves from "Selden". This sheaves enables to use halyards up to 12 mm. Konstantin nice sheaves! where was the picture taken on the boat, in other words what is that board for? looks like it was taken in the cockpit Hi RAD! Yes, a photo was taken in the cockpit of my boat. Konstantin Is the board used as a seat? by the looks of where the picture was taken it looks as though its between the lockers and aft of the wheel in front of the entrance to the aft cabin It's a small folding table in front of the entrance to the main salon. It's mounted on the steering column. There is a more informative photo. OK now I see, I have a simalar table on my pedistal. The original picture looked like there was a custom table across the cockpit, its fun to look at other 32s to see what other owners have done for ideas New sheaves in the top of the Mast. - This site uses cookies to help personalise content, tailor your experience and to keep you logged in if you register.
