Competent Crew Course details: ➜ https://www.firstclasssailing.com/rya-courses/competent-crew This short clip of a Competent Crew course shows how to position the sheet lead car. The 'car' is something the genoa sail sheet passes through and we can adjust it's position along the deck to alter the angle that the sheet pulls down of the genoa. You will see how we need to set the sheet lead car for the headsail to the forward end of the track to allow the sail to adopt a fuller shape. We set it like this when the wind is coming from behind the boat. When we're sailing to windward (when the wind is forward of the beam of the yacht), we want the sail to have a flatter shape, so set the sheet lead car to the aft end of the track. ** 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.

This was a lovely passage although not much wind and we had to motor a lot. Still so beautiful and enjoyable.

Merry Christmas guys! Thanks so much for your support in 2022 and I hope you really enjoy this time with your family & friends. Hopefully Santa got you your dream boat and you'll be out enjoying yourself this Christmas on the water! For those of you in the Northern Hemisphere I hope you're also having a great time with family and hopefully also using this time to get your antifoul and engine service done as summer 2023 is coming and I look forward to getting back up to your half of the world as soon as the temperatures start to warm up again! You're all legends! Merry Christmas Dan Jones
