6:31 *Sigh* Well, all I can say is that sailing should be fun, especially for beginning sailors. Instruction should focus on this. To start, I think he means “level” not “stabilize” when describing the attitude of the hull. Proper terms do matter especially when used so often. The capsize recover is entirely wrong. I’d certainly want to see an authoritative citation that prescribes this. First and very important is to point the hull into the wind by having the crew swim to the bow and hold the stem. Most aluminum masts have floatation and the sail itself provides resistance to turning turtle. If the skipper didn’t bail over the windward (high) side of the boat during capsize as the boat rolled over into a capsize. (There will be substantial heel as the hull rolls into capsize so the skipper and crew will, or should, be hiking out, meaning the skipper is well positioned to clamber over the side of the hull and onto the exposed centreboard as it comes out of the water. Note, climbing <b>down</b> onto a centreboard is significantly less effort and attempting to pull oneself In many cases this will prevent a full capsize as the boat will _round-up_ into the wind, the sails will de-power and the hull will right. With the crew at the stem (bow) the crew can hold the boat _in irons_ which stabilizes (here being the correct use of the term) the hull and stops forward motion the boat. The skipper reboards the boat, first, ( control of the tiller and sails and then assists the crew aboard.

I just took on the task of maintaining 14 scotts, at a not for profit sailing school, Lake Norman Community Sailing in Huntsville NC. I have sailed in a lot of different boats and absolutely love the scott. There isn't another vessel l have used that seems to be good for all levels of sailors from first time out to champions. Some of our scotts are close to 50 years old the only thing they're in true need of that I don't have the ability to make like new are sails.

good video except the capsize righting section. Climbing inside the boat you risk turtling the boat. Better to swim around the stern to the centerboard and grab onto the tip climbing up onto it as the boat slowly rights itself and turns itself into the wind.

In a case where a boat is sailing downwind on a starboard reach and another boat is sailing upwind close hauled on a port tack, the windward boat is the stand on vessel because it's on starboard. If the windward boat is sailing dead downwind but the leeward boat is close hauled on a starboard or port tack, the leeward boat has the right of way due to it's starboard tack or due to the fact that it's the leeward (port tack ) boat. If a windward boat is on a either a port or starboard reach and a leeward boat is close hauled on starboard, the leeward boat is the stand on vessel, because when both boats are on starboard, the leeward boat is the stand on boat. I believe this is correct for these situations, because as you said, leeward trumps windward, starboard trumps port, and starboard trumps leeward.

Everyone has too much belly in the main while close hauled in those conditions ..need more Cunningham going to weather, opens up the slot too for pointing higher. Vang is for the reaching leg…main sheet is your vang close hauled

Those boats have been around a long time. There were lots of them at sailing schools. Im going to be moving to Saint James City Pine Island and looking at the Sea Peral 21 and also this Flying Scott. The Flying Scotts has lot so room with its beam and it seems to be real stable even with lots of people in it and that is impressive. There is lots of shallow water where Im going that is why Im also looking at the Sea Pearl 21 which can sail in shallow water and you can camp on the boat. Maybe people camp on the flying Scott too. The Sea Pearl doesn't have a centerboard to get in the way of the cockpit. It uses swinging dagger boards on the sides.
@noelmclellan
@noelmclellan 3 года назад
Have you gotten one yet? I was also deciding between the two and went with the Sea Peal, the quick setup was a significant factor for me as I am trailer sailing exclusively. Secondly it is so easy to single hand. The FS has impressive performance. I wish I could try one out.

I don’t think I understand how the horizontal bar under the deck with the turnbuckle is involved. I know it is supposed to be horizontal when the jib is attached and under tension. How do you adjust for tension/horizontal and retain desired forestay tension? Also, when I was looking at buying a FS, a prospective seller told me that if I wanted to moor the boat, I should attach the jib halyard to the bow fixture and take up the slack in order that the forestay not saw itself on the bow fixture. Is this good advice?

Thanks for the tips! I agree with your statement that all stay strands (wires) are important and should be replaced when broken wires are found, particularly within a few inches of the terminations. But PLEASE, don't run your unprotected hand up and down the stays or halyard to inspect for broken wires! Wear a sturdy leather glove! Those broken wires or "fish hooks" can cut your hand/fingers to the bone!!! Thanks, again!

As a former member, VC, & Commodore of charter fleet #? , I find MANY inaccuracies of your instructions! De-powering of the main in heavy winds; release vang, thereby spilling pressure @ the head. Never ever EVER allow crew to call starting procedures!!! "Albeit the anticipation, exhilaration, & RUSH of the start is Fn Awesome"!. As Skipper, IMO, The Crews job is to; call time, control the jib, notify of encroaching boats, & to look ahead for directional wind changes on the water. As far as a capsized Scot; NEVER climb in!!! Doing so will cause the centerboard to SLAM into the trunk, thereby eliminating ease of up-righting your Scot!!! Make sure all sails are uncleated, swim around to the underside of the boat, grab centerboard, apply weight, & upright! Question...is this video approved by the FSSA??

During the capsize drill, why climb up through the cockpit and over? Why not just grab the centerboard from the outside and pull her down?
@gordonipock9385
@gordonipock9385 3 года назад
Standing probably puts more weight on the centerboard than reaching and holding, and it takes less strength in case it takes a bit to get the momentum going.
@gordonipock9385

Also, on a bigger boat that centerboard is a good ways above the water. You may not be able to reach up out of the water and grab it with both hands.
