This video was taken by a friend as we're approaching a favorite bay. We're reaching down the wind, so our boards are up to reduce drag. This is our prototype Split Junk Rig (SJR), an innovation by Slieve McGalliard. Camber and set are adjustable via lacings along top and bottom of each panel. Later, we sewed the final sail to match. The mizzen (aft) sail stays flat for decisive maneuvering and quiet weather-cocking.
Steering failure at sea is one of the most critical situations on a sailing boat. In this video, I explain what an emergency tiller is, where to find it, and how to use it properly when the main steering system fails. Every sailor and charter guest should know this before leaving the dock. ⚓ Sailing safety ⚓ Emergency steering ⚓ Boat handling tips Have you ever experienced a steering failure?
