In this video we show how to stop leech flutter in a genoa by tightening the leech line. The tightening mechanism may vary from sail to sail, but the principle is the same. Tighten the leech line until the sail stops fluttering, but not so much as to cause a hook in the leech.

Welcome to Navel Gazing at Camp David Shorts. In this fascinating short, we delve into the intricate physics that allows sailboats to seemingly defy the wind by sailing upwind. How is this possible? It's all about understanding the fundamental principles that govern sailing dynamics. From the Bernoulli principle to the concept of apparent wind, we'll break down these complex ideas into easy-to-grasp concepts. Whether you're a sailing aficionado or a curious mind, this short will give you a glimpse into the art and science of sailing. For those of you looking to expand your knowledge, consider reading 'Sailing for Dummies' by J.J. Isler and Peter Isler, Wiley, published in 2017, which provides a beginner-friendly guide to all things sailing. Alternatively, 'The Physics of Sailing Explained' by Bryon D. Anderson, released by Sheridan House in 2023, offers a deeper dive into the scientific aspects that make sailing possible.
