mrsswordfisherman Posted March 24, 2006 Author Share Posted March 24, 2006 any quizzes on beer dinking, leudness and general debauchery? Yes clutch, just so happens that I do have a huge selection of Adult Trivia questions. However, I do not think that many will get much more than 3/10 All jokes aside, we do have some junior members here that may not need to know about such things yet Try this MARINE QUIZ 1. The foils of a sailing boat are: q Its rudder and keel q The outriggers where fitted q Boathooks when used to pick up moorings 2. Vessels when passing within 100 metres of a dredge must: q Keep well clear of it q Slow down to under 4 knots and keep well clear q Slow down to under 6 knots 3. The operation of personal water craft (PWC) is prohibited: q In Sydney Harbour where sailing races occur q In Sydney Harbour including all tidal bays, rivers and tributaries q Between sunset and sunrise except where navigation lights are fi tted 4. The SS Great Eastern in her maiden voyage in 1859: q Struck a rock when entering New York Harbour q Suffered an explosion in a funnel water-filled cooling jacket q Collided with HMS Warsprite 5. A ‘cran’ is: q A shortage of food – as in ‘scran’ q Intense study before a navigation exam q A unit of measurement of herrings 6. Mackay Marina Shipyard won the 2005: q Australia Property Institute’s Environmental Development Award q Marina Association of Australia Turnaround Award q Central Queensland Service Benchmark Award 7. Australian Photographer Frank Hurley (1885-1962) recorded the crushing by ice in 1915 of Sir Ernest Shackleton’s vessel: q Terra Nova q Endurance q Icebird 8. The term ‘low and aloft’ describes a sailing vessel: q With all crew on station except one lookout up a mast q With all crew except the helmsman sheltering below decks q With every available stich of sail set 9. The expression ‘Neptune’s sheep’ refers to: q Waves at sea breaking into foam q Victims in a ‘crossing the line’ ceremony q People on their fi rst liner cruise 10. HMAS Sydney defeated German raider SMS Emden in November 1914 by: q Sinking her with superior gunnery q Causing the Emden’s captain to run her aground q Firing torpedoes at close range Cheers mrsswordfisherman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
