Woooow!!! close call...I'm very new at this and thank you for making it clear that when you hove to you must keep the alarm clock on and sleep with 1 eye open at all times...
Good stuff. You did not really explain HOW to heave to, and your comment about letting the tiller go surprises me. I lash my tiller over to the side opposite the jib.
Figured there are enough videos and tutorials out there explaining how to heave to so no need to create another. You have good point about tiller. I lash to side like you and then leave it alone making adjustments with only sails.
