Squall lines can quickly triple the amount of wind you’re dealing with and have the potential to do damage if you’re caught unprepared. Once the squall hits, preparation is over and it’s up to reactive seamanship skills. While your strategy should depend on many factors (your boat, sea conditions, proximity to land, etc.) here are a few things that are helpful in most circumstances: 1. Reduce sail area early. Considering dropping sails entirely depending on conditions. 2. Ensure the crew puts on proper gear such as Lifejackets, Foul weather jackets, tethers, etc. 3. Take note of where you are & where you were sailing to. Be aware of any nearby shoals or reefs. 4. Prepare for poor visibility. Turn on running lights, monitor VHF ch16, have an airhorn accessible, etc. What else would you add to this list?

Meal prepping for our overnight sail! This whole process actually takes quite a lot of time, especially since we don’t have a DISHWASHER, but it’s worth it to have all our food ready to go when we are hungry! We eat lots of salads and sandwiches and cold overnight oats on the boat. What questions do you have for me! #sailboatliving #sailboatlife #sailingcouple #sailingtiktok #mealprepping #whatiate
