RYA Competent Crew: Unfurling the Headsail

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.

Giorno 14 - attraversiamo DI NUOVO l’oceano Atlantico Oggi vi portiamo un po’ di buonumore. Fatto di balletti, risate, smalti sulle unghie, giochi e veleggiate. I giorni all’arrivo si avvicinano e noi navighiamo a un metro dal suolo. Siamo felici, siamo liberi, stiamo vivendo un’esperienza più unica che rara e stiamo bene. Non importa se abbiamo già attraversato una volta l’oceano, perché tutto è cambiato e immagino che sia ogni volta come la prima. Non abbiamo visto anima viva per 10 giorni e negli ultimi tre abbiamo avvistato un enorme capodoglio e decine di delfini. Nei 10 giorni che hanno preceduto quel momento abbiamo accumulato un desiderio talmente forte di ricevere un segnale dal mare, che quando è arrivato siamo esplosi di gioia. Come oggi. Tre branchi sono passati a salutarci e in tutte tre le volte abbiamo interrotto ogni attività per goderci il momento. Chi è uscito con lo spazzolino in bocca, chi dormiva ma non poteva perdersi l’occasione. In quei momenti torniamo ad avere 7 anni e a cercare i delfini tra le onde ❤️ Dopo pranzo il vento ha ripreso a soffiare e noi abbiamo spiegato le ali bianche e blu al vento. Di nuovo a 7 nodi verso l’orizzonte con il cuore più leggero delle vele 🌬️🤍 Camilla
