Read more "Practice Friday 5-4-2018"Trying more combinations today. We will move more people around to continue to have all combinations a chance to work out together. This is a great opportunity to learn from new people, so part of today will be used to do just that. -warm up boat handling for those that get out quickly -a few […]
Read more "Practice Thursday 5-3-2018"Today we will work on a few more of the same drills: -tacking (remember yesterday and also check out some film of your tacks) -gybing downwind, working on less turn, more kinetics and power through the gybe -maybe a race or two together -if enough steady wind, we will split up and V will do […]
Read more "Practice Wednesday 5-2-2018"Today we will take some time to work on roll tacks. We may move pairs around a little to try some things out. Observations: -synchronize rolling -switch jib tack to tack without luffing -roll later -work on mainsail trim throughout tack –tight in, then ease, then in…. after flatten, “re-adjust” main trim for one more […]

Read more "Practice Thursday 4-26-2018"Lighter air boat-handling today. Same deal: practice starts, work on timing and acceleration off the line Re-group at mark 1 and do 3 2 on 1’s, then we will do downwind SNO in “unstable winning” RED: 2,3,5 and RED 1,4,5 We might try a few light-air combinations as well. OUT FJ1 Mariner Fagan Caroline McNeil […]
Read more "Practice Wednesday 4-25-2018"Practice Today for boat handling I’d like to work on better FJ gybes. Work on creating more acceleration and downhill direction out of the gybe. In light air it almost doesn’t matter about sail trim immediately after the gybe, as your kinetic energy from the roll should overcome and be more profitable than the wind […]
