The legal time to tow a skier on a Personal Watercraft (PWC) varies by location, but generally, it is allowed during daylight hours. Many regions require that towing occurs only between sunrise and sunset for safety reasons. It's essential to check local regulations, as some areas may have specific rules regarding towing activities, including necessary equipment and the presence of a spotter. Always ensure compliance with local laws to ensure safety and legality.
no you can't drink while operating a boat in oregon. but can you drink while anchored or tied up to a dock for a extended time?
That depends on where you start & where you intend to arrive. Also the time of year. Also the size of boat. Motor or sail? Intending to move 24/7 or stop to rest?
You would need to know how fast it is going to determine the force that the 50 hp motor is pushing the boat. Energy = Force X Distance. Divide both sides by time: Energy/time = Force X Distance/Time = Force X Speed, and Energy/Time = Power, so Power = Force X Speed, and Force would equal Power/Speed.
they measure time on a boat with a chronometer
That's almost impossible to answer as it is dependent on whether it's a sailboat or motor boat (and what power if the latter). Also the weather at the time and last but not least the seamanship ability of the crew. - We need more facts for even a basic answer.
I once had a 6hp motor on a 10ft aluminum boat. It worked well with one man aboard, but had a hard time planing with two people in it. I would say on a lightweight boat of 8ft or less, it should work alright. You won"t be a speed demon, but it should work for a one man rig.
The ex-Royal Navy Motor Torpedo Boat named The Dansant was sold to a private owner after being decommissioned. It later underwent restoration and was used for various purposes, including as a charter vessel. Unfortunately, the boat deteriorated over time, and its current status is unclear, with reports suggesting it may have been scrapped or left in disrepair.
If it doesn't speed up, then you can't say that is becomes accelerated. Accelerated means that the speed changes.If the motor is pushing all the time, and the boat maintains its speed, then that means that there is a force of equal magnitude pulling backwards. This would be the friction with the boat, against the water.
