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
A lot of boats sing at certain wind speeds
I believe it is caused by a phenomena known as "von Karman vortex shedding"You
will find it described in many fluid dynamics treatises.

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

Sometimes even a clothespin on the shroud will prevent the harmonic hum.

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.

Is that why they call it "tuning the rigging"?

Thank you! This gets lots of tangential rig visuals of wind flow!

I have been trying to silence our shrouds for years. Loosen, tighten, bind
them together, hold them apart...nothing works. I suspect I'm going to have
to pull the rig and start over to fix this, just like in our 29-2.
