Tuesday Tips: Mastering Jib Trim on a Catamaran ⛵️ Ready to perfect your jib trim? Think of the jib as the leading edge of an airplane wing—smooth and balanced for optimal performance. 🎯 Key tips: • Telltales should flow back on both sides of the sail, with no leech luffing. • Maintain twist from bottom to top, matching the main sail's shape. • Keep the slot (the space between the jib and main) just right to sustain attached airflow across the main sail for lift and speed. 🌊 Sail smarter, not harder—find the perfect balance! #TuesdayTips #SailTrim #CatamaranSailing #BalanceCatamarans #SailingTips

🪢 Sunday Boat Tip [20/52] 🪢 These are the rules we have set up to feel safer on over night passages as we double hand our sailboat from point A to B. They enhance our chance to get a more peaceful sleep when you are not on watch, knowing that the other person is safe and still on the boat when you wake up. The person on watch must: 1. Wear the personal floating device at all times! 2. If needed to get up on deck, wake up the other one, and then tell when everything is done and you are safely back again. The person asleep does not need to get up, but will keep an ear out until all is done. 3. Hook the safety line to the boat when getting out of the cockpit. 4. Wake the other person up for operations like reefing the main and gybing. The person asleep must: 5. Set the alarm to wake up at the end of shift. Do you have any additional rules you would like to add? Let us know! Don’t forget to save this post and share it with a friend who needs to see this 🫶🏼
