Ready to take your 22-40ft. sailboat out for the first time? In this episode of the Captain's Salon, we break down the basics of sailing, terms & concepts every beginner needs to confidently navigate lakes and bays. Buying a sailboat is the first step, but gaining the confidence to leave the dock is where the real journey begins. Join me in my salon as I pull from three essential sailing books to glean the best "sailing speak" and turn it into plain English. Whether you're on a Texas lake, reservoir, or a coastal bay, mastering terms like Port, Starboard, Tack or Jibe is your foundation for safety and fun while your sailing on the water. #SailingForBeginners #LearningToSail #NewBoatOwner #Sailing101 #HowToSail #cruisinglife #sailingtips #smallboatsailing #lakesailing #baysailing #coastalsailing
We had a tough overnight first sail of the season and took one of our bailout options - this is the feeling when you finally catch sight of a safe harbour and know soon your world will be still. Catch more in episode 49 - A helluva shakedown sail!! - Forced to abandon our plans and divert to a bail out port! #sailing #liveaboardsailboat #sailinglife #sailboat #bluewatersailboat #boatlife #lifeonaboat #sailaroundtheworld #medsailing #safehaven
Day 1 of Audi Hamilton Race Week 2016 provided the first opportunity for Wild Oats XI and Scallywag to go head-to-head on an inshore race course. The two boats shadowed each other in the pre-race manoeuvres prior to the start of a race to Lindeman Island and back, starting in Dent Passage. Both boats made a fine spectacle as they reached to the northern tip of Dent Island before heading upwind to Lindeman Island. Dale Lorimer of Bow Caddy was on the water and recorded this brief cameo of the start line encounter between the two super maxis.
