Chapter 115: Flying Scissor Sailboat

In the evening, the fishing company gave Zhu Houzhao a surprise to them. When dinner was served, Zhu Houzhao's family of five was a little shocked. Because on a large plate, there is a steamed splendid lobster. Zhu Houzhao didn't know each other, but Zhu Houwei had eaten it a few times in his previous life. Splendid lobster (also known as lobster, flower lobster), is a lobster genus, lobster family, the body is 55 cm long, and the abdomen, first antennae and feet have black-brown and yellow markings. It usually inhabits water depths of 1 to 10 meters, with the highest recorded depth of 145 meters, mostly in still water on reefs and reef slopes, and sometimes in muddy bottoms near estuaries.

Generally speaking, splendid lobsters can grow up to 60 centimeters long, which is already considered the largest. At present, there is a record that on November 2, 2014, when a fisherman was fishing in the waters of Wenling Shitang, he caught a colorful "divine shrimp", which was nearly one meter in size, and it was identified as a Chinese splendid lobster. The lobster was bought for 600,000 yuan. But tonight, this one is also 80 centimeters long and weighs about 5 kilograms, which makes people have to sigh that the things in the sea are big.

The lobster meat is delicious, and the fishy smell is removed by ordinary steaming and reuse some means, so as to ensure the original taste of the meat to the greatest extent. The meat of the lobster is concentrated in the body and the pair of large pincers that are oozing, and it is estimated that there are about 3 catties of meat. But it was soon eaten by everyone, and after eating, everyone still felt unsatisfied, especially the little girl, clamoring to eat it tomorrow, but such prawns can be found but not sought, and Zhu Houwei can't guarantee that there is no such big one.

After dinner, everyone went to the dock, took a walk, blew the sea breeze, and consumed food. The cement road 2,3 miles from the camp to the pier is lit by kerosene lamps on both sides. Although this trip to Tianjin has just begun, everyone feels that it is worth it.

Zhu Houzhao and Bai Yulian avoided everyone and ran to a dark corner. The little girl was stopped by Queen Zhang and didn't follow, so she had to stay with Queen Zhang and Zhu Houwei. The weather is slowly starting to warm up these days, and this is especially true in Tianjin, which is on the coast of the sea. Some warm sea breeze blows on the face and also blows to the heart. There is always some depression in everyone's heart, and in the sea breeze, these negative emotions are blown away. There is a faint fishy smell in the sea breeze, but several people have become accustomed to it, and even Aiwu and Wudi like the unique taste of the sea.

Early the next morning, everyone got up, and in the courtyard, the four brothers and sisters were practicing boxing. If you practice the same set of boxing techniques, it looks like the movements are neat and uniform, but it is also beautiful. Empress Zhang smiled and watched a few people practice martial arts, feeling comfortable. I didn't expect to come out once in a while and make myself feel so happy.

Zhu Houwei is almost 15 years old now, and he has grown taller, from 1.5 meters to about 1.58 meters. The perennial exercise even began to have confidence in his own force value, so he said to Zhu Houzhao, "Let's compare?" Zhu Houzhao nodded with a straight color, "That's what I mean." The two of them have a heart, the whole competition process is about 3 minutes, and the first 2 minutes and 59 seconds are more than 2 meters away from the two people keep demonstrating their "strong martial arts, chic movements", the last second two of the two kicked each other, as a result, Zhu Houwei took a few steps back to stand, and Zhu Houzhao only took half a step back to stand firm. The latter raised his head slightly, looked at the sky at forty-five degrees, and his expression was cold with a sense of loneliness that the opponent could not find, and said lightly, "Vulnerable." ”

Zhu Houwei was angry, "You are so strong, it must be no problem to clean up your daughter-in-law, right?" Zhu Houzhao withered at once, but he still said stiffly, "How can I beat my daughter-in-law, there is no lower limit." "The meaning of the lower limit Zhu Houwei once said, and everyone can understand it. However, Zhu Houzhao said this very unconfidently, and Queen Zhang and the sisters both laughed miserably. Bai Yulian smiled as she handed Zhu Houzhao a towel, the "battle" just now was too physically demanding. Zhu Houzhao was embarrassed and smiled at Zhu Houwei proudly, Zhu Houwei felt aggrieved, at this time, Chiguo was abusing single Wang, the most depressed thing was that he couldn't curse him yet, after all, he was a relative, and he couldn't get this mouth. Fortunately, at a critical time, my sister came to the rescue, Zhu Houwei took my sister's towel, and finally smiled, "It's still good for my sister." The little girl looked proud, "It's a must." ”

After breakfast, the group came to the dock. Under the guidance of the three of them, they finally saw the ship. The boat is not large, about 18 meters long, and the widest part is only 3 meters. When it comes to sailing ships, later generations will think that Western sailing ships are the best. In fact, Western ships have to absorb some Eastern technology to achieve the best performance. Both the Eastern and Western ships are modeled in a way that mimics creatures. Western ships imitate fish, so the widest position of the boat is in the middle and the front, and the Chinese sailing ship imitates the waterfowl, so the widest part is in the middle and back of the boat. After a long period of human exploration, it was finally concluded that the Orientals were right. In addition to this there was also the spinnaker, at which time Westerners learned the paddle sailing of the Arabs. And the only thing that Westerners recognize is the watertight cabin. This is the crystallization of the wisdom of the Chinese nation, with a watertight cabin, even if a cabin is flooded, the ship will not sink, and it is very important to sail in the deep sea.

Another feature of the new ship is that the superstructure is almost nonexistent and looks very low. The mast is very high, about 18 meters long, but the two masts are about 12 meters, and there is a slanted, short mast at the bow of the ship, on which the sails can be hung. This is the famous flying scissor sailboat.

This type of ship has a small freeboard and less superstructure, which not only improves the stability of the ship, but also gives full play to the role of the sail. The boat sails almost close to the water surface, the length-to-width ratio is generally greater than 6:1, and its underwater shape is designed to minimize the resistance to improve the speed, but maintains a certain lateral resistance profile, resulting in a particularly beautiful waterline, and even has a concave in the first waterline surface, and the long and sharp curve scissor-shaped head column is a situation suitable for racing, and can split the waves (cut the waves) at sea to reduce the wave resistance, so it is called flying shear; The head column also extends the length of the hull, and a slash is extended along the head column to hang some more support rope spinnakers at the head, which is conducive to expanding the capacity of the support sail; The hollow bow makes it easy for the boat to lift its head in the waves, improving its course stability in the waves. The sloping waterline that gradually changes at the rear transitions harmoniously to a narrow round tail, harmoniously blending in with the graceful bow shape. This kind of clipper ship is more obvious is that the sail area is very large, generally use 3-4 masts fully equipped with sails, often with high masts, its height up to 3/4 of the length of the ship, on the top mast sail also hung with moon sails and support sails, sometimes on both sides of the ship there are extended sail trusses, called wing sails, can hang wing sails, more large sail lateral extension area.
