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! #TuesdayTips #SailTrim #CatamaranSailing #BalanceCatamarans #SailingTips

We stopped on over to Long Island from George Town, Bahamas for a few days. We anchored out in Thompson Bay, near Salt Pond. There's a dinghy dock that is privately owned north of the Government Dock. We've been told that the owners are very gracious to allow cruisers to use it...and we agree. It's super nice. Just outside of the fence, there are some garbage cans for garbage. I forget about the exact name of the street, but I learned it's named after the family that owns the property nearby, Basil. Take a right on Queens Highway and the Farmer's Market is on the right. Perhaps a quarter mile down the road. We bought Long Island Salt, Long Island Pepper Salt, Hot Sauce, Fresh Dill, Fresh Basil and Zucchini Bread. We'll definitely be going back should we return to Long Island...and I expect we will. #sailingcatamaran #boatlife #catamaran #travelvlog #digitalnomad #lifestyle #sailboats #sailing #cruising #offgrid #nomad #sail #boat #multihull #whileone #sailingwhileone #bigseas #lifeafter50 #sailinglife
