Competent Crew Course details: ➜ https://www.firstclasssailing.com/rya-courses/competent-crew As we return to port, we need to put the sails away. In this clip during a Competent Crew course in Southampton, you will see us furling the headsail whilst hauling in on the furling line and easing the sheet. A crew member is seen sweating the furling line, whilst another crew member in the cockpit takes in the slack. With the headsail furled, we then drop the main. The boat is turned head to wind as we did when we set the main, to allow the sail to drop freely. ** 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.

Let’s dance to warm up 😉 Pierre shows his moves on the banks of the Qu'Appelle River in Saskatchewan. The Qu’Appelle River crisscrosses southern Saskatchewan. It takes it source at the Qu'Appelle Dam on Lake Diefenbaker and flows into the Assiniboine River in Manitoba. It is very curvy. To give you an idea of conversion, 50 km of river was often only the equivalent of 30 km as the crow flies. Although this river is bordered mainly cattle farms, there is a great diversity of wildlife and birds. In addition, the Qu'Appelle River is part of the Great Trail, the Trans Canada Trail for a total distance of 166.73 km from Lumsden to Katepwa Beach. --- Une petite danse pour se réchauffer 😉 Pierre s’exécute sur les abords de la rivière Qu’Appelle en Saskatchewan. La rivière Qu’Apelle sillonne le sud de la Saskatchewan. Elle prend sa source au barrage Qu’Appelle du lac Diefenbaker et se jette dans la rivière Assiniboine au Manitoba. Elle est très sinueuse. Pour vous donner une idée de conversion, 50 km de rivière ne représentait souvent que 30 km à vol d’oiseau. Bien que ce cours d’eau soit bordé principalement de champs destinés à l’élevage bovin, il y a une grande diversité d’animaux sauvages et d’oiseaux. De plus, la rivière Qu’Appelle fait partie du Grand Sentier, le Sentier Transcanadien sur une distance totale de 166.73 km depuis Lumsden jusqu’à Katepwa Beach. #ClipperCanoes​ #Hilleberg #ORTLIEB #HappyYak​ #Wildravenadventure #JasminetheBearDog​ #canoelife #canoe #adventure #NoramOdyssey #4yearscanoeadventure #Canada #exploresaskatchewan #explorecanada #canada #happiness
