Want to learn how your sail trim affects the way your boat steers? In this quick tutorial for beginners, we break down helm balance—including the difference between weather helm and lee helm, and how sail trim and heel impact your boat's steering. Learn why your boat pulls into the wind or away from it, how water flow below the hull influences performance, and the quickest way to restore balance using your mainsail. Whether you're learning to sail or improving your skippering skills, this short video will help you feel more confident and in control at the helm.

Timing is everything when the left hand side of the beat is favoured. Black flag was up which created a bigger sag in the centre of the line. Timing the run to the pin allowed us to force the trailing boats into a down speed tack, a loose cover to windward and off to the top mark in a tight race. The team at bottom up boats hope you are enjoying the short clips from the 2025 racing season.
