Ah, i get it, always wondered how a sail boat moved into the wind. Obviously im not a sailor, just interested in the process. Great stuff, thanks.

Interestingly…. Lying supine and closing my eyes resolved symptoms. It made for an interesting experience at the airport. The spinning feeling (MDS), was resolved with 0.5mg clonazepam. Otherwise, it hung around along with some nausea. I’m not normally motion sick and I do have an injury that has resolved in a number of compensations. I suspect these compensations + the stormy seas pushed me over my edge. I’m going to try gravol ahead of boarding to see if that resolves symptoms. Otherwise, I’m going to try scopolamine.

Very Very helpful!

Cure for sea sickness ?... Go take a nap under an apple tree.

I took sailing classes weeks and months .. I have learned more washing these short videos than all the time I spent with my other instructors ... great videos

I preferir being drowsy than nauseous

I heard you should drink your own urine....

Hello Captain, Wonder what you used to clean up the mess? On my boat, the seagulls eat their dinner (crab) and it s a real mess. I have tried Dawn, Oxy crystals, CLR, bleach, Krud cutter and soft scrub. The Dawn detergent remove some of the mess but Im still left with some very stubborn stains and Im beginning to scrub through my deck paint. Any suggestions are appreciated. Many Thanks.

I did this a few times a day for 2 weeks prior to getting on the boat. We've been sailing for over 4 weeks now and I haven't been sick at all. I felt some slight queasiness but I was down in the galley at the time. Thanks for the great info

you don't mention anything about tying off the loose bottom of the sail. Yes if overpowered you go faster by reefing. And you do not have so much leeway too.

Easing so much sheet seems asking for trouble, why not helm into a wind for two minutes and make it safe?

need to tie a water knot on the webbing. also, aren’t you briefly unclipped at the mast?

The complicating facotr, of course, is cross wind. With a boat that has a long keel with cut away forefront, as soon as any wind hits the boats while you are going slow either foreward or backward, the bow wants to blow off downwind and if the wind is strong it can easily over power the effect of the rudder that has little water running over it..

Hello. Very tick neoprene dry suit and very big buoyant life jackets and waterproof epirbs for every one at the storm. Saul only in no shark waters. My deeply respects. Please tell to the others too.

Great video! Thank you very much! 😊

This man needs to get a life!! He doesnt mind polluting the sea with his lump of scrap! And the noise and the damage that does to creatures in the ocean. You are in THEIR home.... Your sailing around on the gulls natural habitat.... What gives you the right to do that.?.😂 Id shit on your stupid boat as well if i was them! 😂

I'm starting to learn to sail again as the last time I used a sailing boat was when I was 14 im now 53and that was a sailing dinghy so it's slowly coming back to me. Great video explanation

Clean as a pin!

Im working with a fish lab at my university this summer. First day out on the boat i was sea sick for 4 hours straight. Only affected me when the boat was stopped wierdly enough... I would run to the back of the boat and yak, and then id run back to the front to try and assist with something 😂

You should always splice your main brace and yo ho ho

Just get to the point! Smoke some marijuana, or eat it and seasickness will NOT effect you.

Thank you for the video! How did you tension/connect to the 2nd cleat? The video cuts out at 01:16, my question is about the seconds that would have followed.

So in this example, where the wind is to port, the tiller would be set as if trying to steer the boat to port?

Your Awesome !! I like your ingenuinety..

Great analysis and solution! This is a common sense approach to backing up on a sailboat. I can’t wait to practice this technique of standing on the backside of the helm.

Haven’t read all the comments, so this may be redundant,, but to me, your credibility went way down when you started referring to the fender as a “bumper”. New boaters watch these videos to learn and you aren’t doing them any favors teaching them incorrect terminology. When I teach new students I find myself saying things like: see that thing on the deck? It isn’t a “rope” it’s a line,, and a lines has a name which describes its purpose. It’s a halyard, or a sheet, or a downhaul etc. If you know the correct term, use it, teach it. If you don’t well I’m not sure what to say but pretty sure I don’t need to spend much time on this channel.

Why not have the two tethers attached to yourself as with regular tethers, use one going to the mast then clip on the second to work at the mast then unclip the first to go forward. The drawback is as you go forward the boat is very narrow, so the tether is again too long.

I appreciate your explanation. Being new at sailing when I try to look up how to do things, the videos seem to be designed more to impress the viewer than instruct because they use salty old sea dog vocabulary. I realize that I need to learn these terms but I prefer videos like yours that explain things where I can understand.

I'm not sure I would trust 4200 pound rated nylon webbing. The knot will reduce this to 2100 pounds breaking strength immediately and if you fall hard it may very well put more strain on the webbing than it can hold.

That was the info i wanted , good man . 15 degrees , i knew there would be an ultimate point , and the reason makes perfect sense . Thank you .

Got lots of “oooo’s!” and “ahhh’s!” berthing my 31 footer that loved to prop walk like crazy.

If the goal is to create vertigo, we can stand without turning and hold our head down and turn up and down,turn 360, we can increase the speed, we can also turn in our place. do you think this one can work too?

So basically don’t do anything fun on a cruise?

Great explanation, thank you

Taking novormine

I like your install 73s from a fellow ham

Does not work at all on a Windows 11 machine with 4K monitors. It can't even download charts as it claims it needs a directory, which was already created because the app sees it in other settings..... Navionics is the way to go.

Excellente vidéo. But i think you are wrong on the 1 inch difference gonna make your top of the mast off of 1/2 a inch. What is true is if you have one inch more on one side. The correction is give 1/2 inch from the other side and take 1/2 inch from that one side. But in the case you have like in this exemple one inch difference. So the the mistake is 1/2 inch. Let say your boat is 10 ft large and 40 ft high. The triangle (5x40) keep his angle. It rotate from the base 1/2 inch the top gonna move about 8 time more (40/5=8) . So the top of the mast should be like 1/2 x 8 = 4 inches off. 4inches off gonna certainly make difference in the sailing performances. That is why it is important to be as accurate as possible to center the mast.

seasickness, keep your eyes on the horizon, not down inside the boat. works for me.

Did anyone who have had seasickness tested the exercise? Did it help?

Was he pulling on the line that controls the jib or the mainsheet

This is a great video. Thank you! Happy Sailing!

I like your ideas, the soft loops and to the mast, I sail on the Irish west coast, rarely see blue skies! Lots of rain, wind and cold!

No. Trim your boat to ride smoother and don't eat so much.

Thx for video🤝🇩🇰

Is there a type of sail that reefs into the horizontal boom (sorry I don't know the nautical term), kind of like a furling jib, so that you don't have slack sail?

For motion sickness/sea sick on cruises, get a “pressure point bracelet”. I have used it on every cruise in my life and they work every time! The pressure point prevents nausea and keeps you on your “sea legs” so to speak :)

Thanks for great tips...this small fishing boat also

I have watched several videos about heaving too. This is the best and shortest video I have seen. No one ever talked about the traveler, which makes total sense to me now. Thank you for taking time to make this video.

Hvala.
