Excellent Video!

wow .. an spectacular video !!!.. I leaned more in just 11 minutes with this video that any class had taken !!!

2:11 Outhaul is misspelled! Great vid, thanks!!!

Great to know as a single sailor😂😂

Best presentation delivered, thank you!

Thanks so much for the easy explanations, I can now do a Bowline. And judging by the comments there's 2 of them so learned the one you have taught which is what we were using already but now I can do it. The way you have explained the knots was really easy for me to follow thankyou

In my younger days, a huge mahogany sailing yacht, no engine, came gliding up to the mooring. Everything calm onboard. Forward sails came down and belayed. Everything calm on board. Main came down and belayed on the boom. Everything calm onboard, boat silently gliding through the water. One of the crew slowly walking the foredeck, preparing some rope. Everything calm onboard. Slowly the yacht turns into the wind before the buoy coming to a complete stop. Crew bowing down and CLICK carabiner in situ! That helmsman for sure knew his boat and calculated the wind!

Thanks for sharing this video!! Very cool to learn the ropes 🪢✨

Never told how to actually hook the mooring

Dank voor deze mooie film! Ik hoop ooit ook eens tot Helgoland en terug te raken. Een vraagje - is dat geen grote knoeiboel nabij Helgoland met die verkeersscheidingsstelsels? Ik heb helaas geen AIS.

You don't "raise" a sail. you hoist it and set it. Raising implies lifting not setting.

Close Reach/Close Hauled: go on a Beam Reach course for no more than two boat-lengths and then get your nose trough the wind. Keep the Genoa windwards and you'll slowly drift to the Person. Broad Reach/Running: also go on a beam reach cause for no more than two boat lengths, then get your nose though the wind. When the wind comes from straight ahead, pull your main sheet tight, then also keep your Genoa windwards. Again, drift to the person.

Good video

A very good explanation of trim without being technical. When I used to teach sailing this is how I taught it to beginners. Much easier for a newbie to understand. Good job

Land HO she’s solid captain, to the shore for rum punch.

Sailing doesn't come easy to me. These videos are truly helping me actually understand and learn the basics without being under pressure on the boat. Thank you!!!

What if the sails are wet when you have to take them down? Do you take them out again when in dock after the rain to dry them or no? Cheers

Jesus.. some warning before coming in hard with that terribly loud (and pretty bad) music would be nice...

But one important thing is missing!!! The wind must com from front of the boat befor you drop the anchor!!

Thank you! this is very helpful! I need to learn 8 knots for trail life to get the badge.

🇵🇬,z

Thank you bro ⛵

Thanks capi

God I hope newbies don’t watch this. This video is so specific to rig setup and should not be used for general knowledge

Don't forget you can always send an advanced shore party to find a top spot while you mull over your anchor technique 👍

🎉🎉❤❤ so cool 😎!!!!

Cool!!

Ok, I am still learning, so I very well may have missed something, but you said at 3:28 that if the top telltales on the jib are luffing then you should move the jib car forward. But wouldn't this increase sail twist, which would increase angle of attack toward the top of the sail, which would decrease air pressure there, which would lead a greater tendency to luff, not less...?

It covers only first 25% of the proper sail trimming for absolutely novices, but a kind of a good introduction. Find RYA sail trimming ebook for a very clear step-by-step purpose oriented sail trimming techniques.

You are inconsistent in the video with respect to ALWAYS have your palm facing the winch. As you are easing the line, your fingers of BOTH hands are facing the winch. Also terms: what you call the "feeder" is called the "guide" by some winch manufacturers.

Two wraps on a sheet with a lot of load on it is not enough in my opinion...

Bowline is not correct

I prefer a clove hitch on the standing part compared to your cow hitch shown.

Best explanation yet.

Great video 👍

Why you not pick up your back plate and point us out where all real all that stuff. And who likes a paff fish?

Tom. You are a great instructor. Everything is so easy to understand and makes sense the first time. Thank you and keep up the great work.

That bowline is wrong...

Very clear! Thank you.

Here in NZ the general protocol is to do an emergency gybe. If you go about rather than Gybe you have a good chance of running the person over. If you muck around lowering the sails in strong weather there is a good chance you won’t find them again.
