Learning when and how to reef is the difference between a beautiful day on the water and an overwhelming, exhausting experience. By reducing the size of your mainsail, you balance the boat, reduce the severe angle of heel, and eliminate heavy weather helm. This keeps the crew comfortable and ensures your vessel handles smoothly, even when the breeze pipes up unexpectedly. Here at the Annapolis Sailing School, our expert instructors teach you the practical steps of slab/jiffy reefing right on the water. Whether you are taking a Basic Keelboat Course or brushing up on coastal cruising, learning to tame your sails is a staple of our curriculum. Ready to get hands-on experience mastering the wind?

On October 19th we reenacted the Battle of Trafalgar. The fleet manager wouldn't let us cross the T, but we had a good time shooting water cannons, tossing croissants and english muffins and finally limes. In our battle a couple of English boats ended up between the French allied boats and got limed to death, leading to a French victory!

This is about the middle of the deep freeze of 2026. The ice formation eventually froze all of Back Creek and most of the way across the Severn River. On the Eastern Shore they even broke out their ice boats. The USCG brought in icebreakers so the Baltimore Harbor pilots could get out to the tankers they needed to guide in.
