Competent Crew Course details: ➜ https://www.firstclasssailing.com/rya-courses/competent-crew In this video shot on the Solent, we look at gybing in a little more detail. First thing we do before gybing is to centre the main. In the clip recorded during a Competent Crew course sailing out of Southampton, you see us on port tack; and we'll gybe onto starboard tack. As the stern goes through the wind, the wind gets behind the sails, and the headsail will start to come over, and the main will come across. We don't need to do anything with the main sheet at this point, but we do need to ease the headsail sheet on starboard, and take up the sheet on port. And then at this point we will ease the main sheet to let the main out. You can watch the first gybing tutorial video here: ➜ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6r2qLC51s0 ** About the RYA Competent Crew course in Southampton ** The RYA Competent Crew course is the perfect introduction for beginners who want to get into sailing and is specifically designed for those with little to no sailing experience.

Giorno 189 - cosa ve lo diciamo a fare 🤌🍕 Il vento stanotte ha dato il meglio di sé, passando da 0 a 40 nodi in pochi secondi ripetutamente. Che strano fenomeno. Comunque tutto bene, l’ormeggio ha tenuto magnificamente e tutti quei parabordi sono perfino eccessivi (e resteranno comunque lì 😂) La giornata scorre lentamente, tra call e lavorazioni. Verso le 18 chiudiamo i pc, che resteranno spenti un paio di giorni, facciamo una doccia e ci facciamo belli per la cena. Abbiamo una pizzata in programma! Che gioia. Qui arriva la parte interessante: andiamo a mangiare una pizza con Giorgio e Silvia, una coppia di italiani che vive qui quasi tutto l’anno e che abbiamo conosciuto per caso al supermercato. Durante la cena viene fuori che abbiamo perfino amici in comune. Incredibile, no? Pizza, chiacchiere, passeggiatina, nanna. Un venerdì sera così ❤️ Domani visiteremo un po’ St Marteen in compagnia di Giorgio, che si è offerto di mostrarci alcune chicche dell’isola. A domani! C.
