Part 6: Catamaran Ferry-Glide—Sideways Into a T-Head (Headwind)

CATAMARAN SAILING CONFIDENCE | ONLINE COURSE (4.86/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - 1,336 Reviews): https://www.nauticed.org/sailing-courses/view/catamaran-sailing-confidence If you're trying to get your catamaran into a T-head and the wind is coming from directly head, a really good way to get the catamaran in is to use a technique called ferrying the boat. The way that you do this is you stop parallel to the position with your boat angled towards the dock. Then use opposing engines to maintain that angle - knowing that the wind will want to turn your bow downwind. Also, the wind wants to push your boat downwind, and so you use the engines to maintain your position parallel to the dock. In this manner, your boat will crab sideways to the wind directly into your dock position. Once in the dock position, spin the boat to align it to the dock and put on the forward bow line 1st. #catamaran #sailing #catamaransailing
