Tuesday Tips: Mastering Jib Trim on a Catamaran
?? Ready to perfect your jib trim? Think of the jib as the leading edge of an airplane wing-smooth and balanced for optimal performance.
? Key tips:
- Telltales should flow back on both sides of the sail, with no leech luffing.
- Maintain twist from bottom to top, matching the main sail's shape.
- Keep the slot (the space between the jib and main) just right to sustain attached airflow across the main sail for lift and speed.
? Sail smarter, not harder-find the perfect balance!
