A Questionnaire Study On Yachting In Gocek BaysDemircioslu, Casdas 01 December 2003 (has links) (PDF)
Yachting known as a relatively old and an expensive leisure activity, due to recent developments of technology and construction techniques has become accessible to a wider range of people. Mediterranean coasts have a great importance among the world yachters. There is a congestion of yacht traffic in the western and middle Mediterranean marinas, so the yachters tend to go to the Eastern Mediterranean including the Turkish coasts. Gö / cek is the most popular yachting region in Turkey with its sheltered bays, natural beauties and archeological heritage. Gö / cek Bays are among the first group of Specially Protected Areas declared in Turkey. Yachting activity in summer months has been an ever-increasing use.
At present, there exists a very low level of managerial effort for limiting the environmental impacts of boating activities in Gö / cek Bays. The uncontrolled yachting in Gö / cek Bays presents a growing pressure on the environment, and the coastal and marine ecosystem. On the other hand, it contributes to decreasing the quality of holidays due to congestion, noise and water pollution. The aim of this thesis is to produce information that would contribute to a future regional yacht tourism management plan for Gö / cek Bays. To determine the preferences and evaluations of the yachters about this region two surveys have been carried out during the summers of 2000 and 2001. During these surveys questionnaires were distributed to the users and their priorities of several items were asked. Besides some demographic information about the user was obtained.

Simulation Of Yacht Movements In Gocek BaysNumanoglu Genc, Asli 01 March 2004 (has links) (PDF)
Fethiye-Gö / cek area is one of the nine coastal Specially Protected Area (SPA) in Turkey. Since mid-80&rsquo / s Gö / cek town has developed to be a yachting center, and the bays of Gö / cek have acquired a well-earned international fame as a paradise for boating vacations. However, the uncontrolled yachting in this bay area presents a growing pressure on the environment, and the coastal and marine ecosystem.
In this thesis a computer model for simulating the movements of yachts in Gö / cek Bays is developed. The computer model uses the Multinomial Logit Model (MNL) to find the probabilities for the boaters to select the next bay to visit. The model predicts the number of boats in each bay at the end of a day, the number of boats visited each bay during the day and the distribution of boater categories among the bays throughout the simulation time. In order to get the data needed for the inputs, a questionnaire was formed, and a detailed survey was carried out in Gö / cek Bays. In addition to the questionnaires, the number of the boats anchored were also observed in the field studies.
The model is applied to the Gö / cek Bays and the results obtained are compared with the data obtained in the field. In the following years, the yacht movements and distributions at various anchor locations can be predicted with this model. These predictions will be useful in a future management plan that aims to control of yacht movement and anchoring.

La Rochelle, capitale de la plaisance en Charente-Maritime (1945-2005) : étude sur l'évolution d'un loisir nautique et de ses aménagements urbano-portuaires / La Rochelle, capital city of leisure boating in Charente-Maritime (1945–2005) : study on the evolution of a water-based leisure and related port town managementDussier, Marie 08 July 2015 (has links)
Le 13 juillet 2001, La Rochelle, ville associée à la candidature de Paris pour l’organisation des Jeux olympiques de 2008, est en effervescence. La population avec à sa tête les élus et responsables du nautisme attendent de connaître le verdict du Comité International Olympique qui permettrait à cette cité portuaire du littoral atlantique français de devenir l’un des centres mondiaux du nautisme. Si Pékin puis Londres en 2012 sont préférées à Paris, et donc par extension à La Rochelle, le fait d’avoir été choisie au niveau national confère déjà à la ville la reconnaissance d’une image de capitale du nautisme. L’objet de cette thèse est donc de saisir par quels moyens La Rochelle, dans un premier temps port de pêche et de commerce, a pu devenir un port de plaisance aux débuts des années 1970 puis en 2015 le plus grand port de plaisance de la façade atlantique française avec une capacité d’accueil de 4 800 bateaux. Après avoir réalisé une analyse théorique approfondie sur les origines de cette pratique hédoniste qu’est la plaisance, une enquête a été menée sur l’essor de ce loisir depuis la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. L’analyse de l’histoire de la Société des Régates Rochelaises mais aussi de plusieurs destins apporte un éclairage important sur les raisons de la création d’un tel aménagement dans cette ville. Ainsi, au début des années 1960, la plaisance devient porteuse à La Rochelle d’un nouveau souffle économique pour une ville dont les activités traditionnelles commencent à décliner. Dès lors, des projets d’aménagements ambitieux visant à transformer cette cité maritime en station balnéaire complète voient le jour. A l’échelle de la Charente-Maritime, alors que le littoral faillit être baptisé « Côtes de plaisance », une véritable course à l’aménagement est entreprise. L’outil de développement territorial qu’est le port de plaisance constituait un élément valorisant de la station balnéaire, mais a fini, en devenant tentaculaire, par menacer le tourisme balnéaire. / On July 13th 2001, the city of La Rochelle, involved with Paris in a candidacy for Olympic Games 2008, was seething with excitement. At the head of local population, elected representatives and managers of local yachting activities were waiting for the verdict of the International Olympic Committee, which would turn the small coastal city into a world-class centre of water-based sports. Although Beijing, and later London in 2012 were preferred, the Paris candidacy has awarded La Rochelle an international reputation. This thesis aims to describe how the city, primarily a fishing and trade harbour, hosted a marina in the early 1970’s that eventually became the largest one of the French Atlantic coast, with more than 4800 moorings. Based on theoretical concepts underlying leisure boating activities, a comprehensive study was carried out on documentary data since World War II. Tracing back the history of the local yachting club Société des Régates Rochelaises and the life of renowned sailors shed a new light on the root causes of coastal management in the city. In the early 1960’s, leisure yachting was a fresh boost to declining economic activities. Since then, ambitious projects were planned with the aim of turning La Rochelle into a seaside resort. The race for coastal planning was engaged at the broader scale of the Charente Maritime department, which was almost nicknamed "Leisure coasts". The La Rochelle marina was an important tool of territorial development and a valuable element of the city, but its sprawling growth eventually became a threat to seaside tourism.

Previous issue date: 2007-07-02 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / The main objective of this study was to evaluate the movement and positioning of the vertebral spineof the sailor during the hiking position. This research was characterized as descriptive and exploratory and the sample was of the intentional type. This was composed for 3 sailors selected through contacts with clubs of sailing of the city, the Santa Catarina Sailing Federation and the Brazilian Sailing and Motor Federation. The research is part of the Project Human Performance of Sailing and had approval in the Ethics Committee in Research with Human beings of the UDESC. For the acquisition of the images four cameras of video of the System Peak Motus® of 60 Hz had been used. To this research, a Laser Standard boat was used, and was raised to 1,20m of height to allow the visualization of the markers of the spine. Marking reflexives of 7mm had been used, applied in 21 anatomical points of the body for the three-dimensional reconstruction through DLT. For the evaluation of the spine the spinal processes of C7, T7, L1, L3 and L5 had been used, beyond the Temporomandibular joints and trochanters of the hips. The other reflexives had been used for the calculation of the CG. For the processing of videos APAS-XP® was used to make the digitalization of pictures. The gotten data had been filtered through the cubic spline interpolation filter of APAS system. Principles of descriptive statistics with calculation of: maximum angles and moments of shoring, average, absolute standard deviation (in each execution), average standard deviation (between the executions) and minimum angles and moments of shoring. In the antropometrical values we can observe an disparity in subjects and one of the athletes was demonstrated low weight. In the calculation of the hiking moment an average value of 796,54±28,58 N.m was gotten. In the flexion angle of head 113,56±2,70º and in the thoracic kyphosis angle 154,15±2,92º. For data of lumbar lordosis the average values had 170,15±2,98º, for angle of rotation of trunk - 3,08±4,05º and for inclination of trunk -1,00±3,78º. This study identified the movements and adjustments realized by the sailor s trunk in hiking position. It was demonstrated that hiking is not a static posture. The body micro-movements executed to control and adjust the boat on water during this posture should be considered. So, to study the hiking position considering trunk as a fixed segment is not the better choice. / O objetivo principal deste estudo foi avaliar a movimentação e posicionamento da coluna vertebral do velejador durante a postura de escora. Esta pesquisa foi caracterizada como descritiva, exploratória, multicaso e a amostra foi do tipo intencional. Essa foi composta por 3 velejadores selecionados através de contatos com clubes de vela da cidade, a Federação Catarinense de Vela e a Federação Brasileira de Vela e Motor. A pesquisa faz parte do Projeto Performance Humana no Iatismo e teve aprovação no Comitê de Ética em Pesquisas com Seres Humanos da UDESC. Para a aquisição das imagens foram utilizadas quatro câmeras de vídeo do Sistema Peak Motus® com freqüência de aquisição de 60 hz. Para coleta, foi utilizado um barco Laser Standard, que foi elevado à 1,20m de altura para permitir a visualização dos marcadores da coluna. Foram utilizados marcadores reflexivos de 7mm, aplicados em 21 pontos anatômicos do corpo para a reconstrução tridimensional através de DLT. Para a avaliação da coluna foram usados os processos espinhosos de C7, T7, L1, L3 e L5, além das articulações temporomandibulares e trocânteres maiores dos quadris, sendo que os outros reflexivos foram usados para o cálculo do CG. Para o processamento dos vídeos foi utilizado o sistema de digitalização quadro a quadro APASXP ®. Os dados obtidos foram filtrados através do filtro de interpolação cubic spline do próprio sistema. Foram utilizados princípios da estatística descritiva com cálculo de: ângulos e momentos de escora máximos, média, desvio padrão absoluto (em cada execução), desvio padrão médio (entre as execuções) e ângulos e momentos de escora mínimos. Quanto aos valores antropométricos observou-se uma disparidade entre os sujeitos sendo um dos atletas demonstrou-se muito leve. No cálculo do momento de escora obteve-se um valor médio de 796,54±28,58 N.m. No ângulo de flexão da cabeça obteve-se 113,56±2,70º e no ângulo de cifose torácica 154,15±2,92º. Para os dados da lordose lombar os valores médios foram de 170,15±2,98º, para o ângulo de rotação do tronco -3,08±4,05º e para a inclinação do tronco -1,00±3,78º. Por fim, observou-se que o velejador realiza, nos três eixos, uma soma de pequenos ajustes posturais e movimentos durante a escora e que estes podem influenciar na performance do gesto. Com isso demonstra-se que a escora não é uma postura estática, e que estudar esse gesto usando o tronco como um segmento ou haste fixa pode não ser a melhor escolha

The diploma thesis focuses on creation of marketing plan for specific project, which offers the services of extreme yachting. The main idea of the project called Evelyna Expeditions is to offer the possibility to participate on the expedition of yacht Evelyna on her journey around the world. Yachting is getting more popular among Czech tourists, but some of them desire even bigger adventure and want to exploit the potential of boat to explore places on the earth which are accessible only from the sea. The project is designed especially for these people. Theoretical part of the thesis explains the different stages of marketing plan (situation analysis, marketing objectives, marketing strategy, budget, action plan) and gives recommendations how to work with them. The practical part of the thesis brings more specific characterization of the project Evelyna Expeditions, for which is subsequently developed the specific marketing plan based on the recommendations outlined in the theoretical part.

Previous issue date: 2006-08-25 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / This study aimed to develop instrumentation for images acquisition that makes possible movements quantification and kinematics analysis of the sailor s hiking positions in Laser boats. Two waterproof boxes were developed for cameras protection, confectioned with fiberglass and acrylic lens viewfinder. The camera and lens viewfinder components had been tested in a bidimensional kinematics analysis, and between the analyzed cameras, the digital standard cameras presented superior quality. The developed viewfinders haven t seemd to generate distortion for the reference measures reconstruction. The root mean square error and the maximum error for the combined cameras and with the lens viewfinders had been quantified. With the equipment a procedure for the boat equipment positioning was developed, with one camera located to the front and second, located in the mast. The camera located in the mast intervened with the sailor movement, and this way its use was discarded. With the images gotten from the camera located in the front it was observed movements quantification possibility made for the sailor. To make possible a posterior analysis kinematics of the sailor hiking positions was considered a procedure for calibration from the image picture. The procedure if showed efficient for a bidimensional hiking positions analysis. However, beyond the hip and knee joints extension, the sailor also executes the rotation of the trunk, what makes a three-dimensional hiking analysis more adjusted. / Este estudo teve como objetivo desenvolver uma instrumentação para aquisição de imagens que possibilite uma posterior quantificação dos movimentos e análise cinemática das posturas de escora do velejador em barcos da classe Laser. Foram desenvolvidas duas caixas estanque para proteção das câmeras, confeccionadas com fibra de vidro e com o visor da lente de acrílico. Foram testados os componentes câmera e visor da lente em uma análise cinemática bidimensional, tendo entre as câmeras analisadas, as câmeras de padrão digital apresentaram uma qualidade superior. Os visores desenvolvidos aparentaram não gerar distorção para a reconstrução das medidas de referência. Foram quantificados o erro quadrático médio e o erro máximo para as câmeras e combinadas com os visores da lente. Com o equipamento foi desenvolvido um método para o posicionamento do equipamento do barco, sendo uma câmera posicionada à frente e a segunda, posicionada no mastro. A câmera posicionada no mastro interferia na movimentação normal do velejador, e desta forma foi descartada sua utilização. Com as imagens obtidas pela câmera posicionada à frente observou-se a possibilidade da quantificação dos movimentos realizados pelo velejador. Para possibilitar uma posterior análise cinemática das posturas de escora do velejador foi proposto um procedimento para calibração a partir do quadro de imagem. O procedimento se mostrou eficiente para uma análise bidimensional das posturas de escora. Entretanto, além das extensões das articulações de quadril e joelho, o velejador executa também a rotação do tronco, o que torna uma análise tridimensional da escora mais adequada.

Fyziologická odezva závodníků lodní třídy Fireball při modelovém závodu v okruhovém jachtingu / Physiological response of competitors Fireball dinghy class in the model sailing race.Lambl, David January 2012 (has links)
Title: Physiological response of competitors Fireball dinghy class in the model sailing race. Objectives: The main intention of the thesis is to detect the physical demands (difficulties) of sailing boat race categorized as Fireball double crew. The variables of physiological response to the load of competitors recorded are being measured using simulated race under laboratory conditions. At that point, this opportunity enabled us to carry out further comparisons and examine the physical demands of individual post at various directions of wind. Methods: The entire investigation of detecting physiological functions of competitors will be carried out noninvasively throughout the simulation of sailing using metabolic analyser tool and sport tester. From the feedback, we will obtained figures and originate the physiological response of human body to the load. Due to the investigation is being implemented on the double crew boat Fireball; both competitors (crew/helmsman) performing different tasks will be simulated and examined individually. Simulated race will last 24 minutes and competitors will have to face different wind courses, precisely cruising upwind, crosswind and tailwind. Results: From the measured results, we can state that most of the time during simulated race, the performance of racers...
