Competent Crew Course details: ➜ https://www.firstclasssailing.com/rya-courses/competent-crew In this clip from our RYA Competent Crew course, you can see how we unfurl the headsail. The headsail is the forward most sail, also called a genoa. In harbour, when not being used it is rolled up like a giant sausage around the ‘forestay’ which is a wire that helps to hold the mast up. Unfurling the headsail is where you unroll and open it up so you can use it to sail with. As part of the Competent Crew Course you will learn how to unfurl and furl the sail. ** 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.
