Life to leeward can be wet and wild for the Jib Trimmer. Eyes ahead and up is the only way to roll to keep the sail shape right. The waves were short and sharp on the way out of Strangford Lough as the J109 GTR bounces over the bar on it way to victory in the 2024 Ardglass Race. The team at Bottom Up Boats hope you are enjoying the short bits from the 2024 racing season.
How to save someone that goes overboard and you’ve got both sails up? Without tacking or jibing, you go into a broad reach, bring the sails in tight, and heave-to. The sheets stay as they were. You’re effectively putting the sails over to the wrong side of the boat. By doing this you put the boat in position for the casualty to drift towards the boat and you also stop forward motion. With the engine, you then go forward and backward lining up the casualty along the beam of the boat…waiting for the person to drift down. Have you ever done this kind of MOB procedure? It’s not commonly taught in sailing schools. Follow us for more tips on becoming a confident sailing cruiser! #sailingexperience #sailingexperiences #learntosail
