Stus-List Singing Rigging

Hello fellow seers, I'm getting this humming in the mast as soon as I have a little breeze while on the mooring ball and it's really annoying. At first I thought it was a generator or an engine sound propagated by water but I realized it's the strings of this big violin that are singing. Any ide

Christian: The 'humming' is probably coming from your shrouds. Since my boat is currently about 300 yards away from your boat, we experience the same weather (wind) conditions. I tried loosening/tightening my shrouds a little but that didn't seem to work. My final solution was to wrap each

We looked into it when C&C 30’s were doing it when tied to the dock or slip. Indeed those Von Karmen Vortices. The only real solution is/was to change the ‘frequency’ of the spar somehow. The simplest being tension some point on the mast - maybe a simple as a tight spinnaker pole lift. But

I had the exact same thing after taking down and putting the mast back up. The previous owner said that the exact arrangement in which the shrouds were attached made the difference. I'm not sure exactly what he meant, but last year we took the rig down to transport via road, and evidently it was pu

I think what is happening is that either a shroud or a stay has hit resonant frequency.  I think that either tightening or loosing it will eliminate the noise.  Resonant frequency is the natural frequency of an object.  This happens to my wife when she gets mad at me and is wound up tight. Frank
