Performance Catamaran Tips and Tricks - Advanced Mainsail Trim

This video takes a closer look at advanced mainsail trim on a Balance catamaran and how sail shape affects speed, balance and control. In this video, we cover: • Reading the mainsail’s shape and telltales • Adjusting leech tension and sail twist • Using the A-frame mainsheets to control boom position • Balancing power against helm pressure • Coordinating mainsail and jib trim • Adapting the sail for changing wind and sea conditions Effective mainsail trim is a continuous process. Watch the sail and boat speed, make small adjustments, and give the boat time to respond before changing another control. These principles apply broadly to Balance catamarans and other performance sailing catamarans.
