Just happened upon this video. Being relatively new to sailing beginning to get the hang of it all, I must say, I never have come across an instructor who so clearly and wonderfully demonstrated these basics in an easy to understand way. I wish I had watched these earlier on. THANKS SO MUCH! ❤

@chrispomfret8592 Год назад

I’m an ex sailmaker and professional yacht racer. This introductory explanation on headsail trim is spot on. Highly recommended watching. Sails can be read like a book once you understand the language. It takes years to understand when and why to do things but these years can be short circuited with quality tuition.

Hi don't ignore the j measurements

@shmegg1095 3 года назад

What a great teacher, easy to understand. I learnt more here than all the other videos combined. Thank you.

I'm actually sailing a Hobie cat 18 with jib sheet tracks and I could never figure out how to implement them. This video is like a bright bright ray of sunshine in the darkness!! Thank you so much for such a clear and concise explantion!!

@offcenterharbor Год назад

Heck yeah, have fun on the Hobie!

@jaimeparra27 Год назад

This lovely lady is a great teacher! Thank you

@briankatz7885 3 года назад

Others have said it, but I’ll say it again. This is really one of the best explanations of sail trim I have ever seen. You have an amazing ability to clearly explain the nuances and connect with the listener. Thanks so much and please do more of these!

@nateface 3 года назад

Brian, there are more lessons with Hasse at Off Center Harbor, with some links in the description.

@patwilliams9375 Месяц назад

I used to be a main sail race trimmer. Its amazing what has been forgotten over time. This is so re_enlightening

@virtualburton Год назад

Wow. Wow! I am so glad I stumbled across this video. I am new to sailing and have read several books on sailing as well as numerous videos but NONE have explained sail trim so well, so clearly and easy to understand. Excellent. My sincere thanks for sharing this!

@offcenterharbor Год назад

So glad to hear that! You can check out the other parts of the series with Carol Hasse at the link in the description - they go over the mainsail and parts and points of sail.

@virtualburton Год назад

@@offcenterharbor thank. I joined your site and watched them. Great site with tons of resources and interesting reads.

@svgitana2499 Год назад

Anybody surprised?? She was a fantastic sailmaker (she retired 😢) so ofcourse she’s going to be a guru at sail shaping!! Wish I could go one day sailing with her just to watch how she shaped her pretty sails on her boat! 🙌🏻

@MrWilko58 3 года назад

I've attended many sailing courses, but never had this level of sail trim explanation. Just brilliant.

@davidpainter304 Год назад

The first time I’ve seen anyone address the leach line. Another useful tidbit. Thank you!

@mikesoertsz222 2 месяца назад

Best. Explanation. Ever. Period.

@offcenterharbor Месяц назад

Awesome, thanks Mike!

@richguest Год назад

This is brilliant, explained in a way that even a halfwit such as myself was able to grasp - I will apply all next time out on the water. Please can we have some more….. ? 😃

@offcenterharbor Год назад

Hi Rich - Carol's amazing. Glad you liked it! If you want to dive deeper, you can get part 1 at the link in the description.

Finally someone makes a video that explains sail trim properly. Really excellent. Thank you Carol. J

@ChrisThorpe4508 Год назад

I watched this video about 2 years ago and found it fascinating. Now I have done lots more Sailing I can see how essential the lessons in this video are to good sail management. Surprisingly yacht Skippers don't seem to be much bothered with these refinements.

@nicocesar 10 месяцев назад

Best 19 minute explanation i ever found

@josephlai9759 3 года назад

Thank you so much. Your explanation is by far the best I have come across with such clarity.

@christianhagegard5323 Год назад

And it all makes sense which is the best way of teaching. Great way of illustrating the principles and in such an easy way that I remember them. This summer was so fun as I got more speed and less healing out of the boat, to everyones joy. Thank You!

@fiddleswithbikes 2 года назад

Wow. Yes. That much info could only be packed into a 20 minute talk by someone very knowledgeable and articulate. Thank you!

@viggosimonsen Год назад

Excellent explanation! These 19 minutes finally made the penny drop for me. Thanks a lot

I am hearing all of these words for the very first time and I still feel like I could follow the logic. great presentation.

@jb9090 3 года назад

It’s a lot to remember, especially when you’re trying to learn this as a newbie out on the water. It takes a long time to put this into practice but she’s a knowledgeable lady and a good teacher. Thanks for the lesson!

@richardmclaren8549 2 года назад

I have been sailing and yacht racing since I was 10 years old so that is 51 years now and I just found why a genoa is a genoa and a jib is a jib. The size of the fore triangle. Brilliant. Richard McLaren, New Zealand.

@claywebb8199 3 года назад

Great explanation, the best I’ve ever seen on RU-vid or in sailing school for that matter. You have a gift for teaching, please keep it up. 👍

@DeanColegate 3 года назад

Carol clearly knows her subject well and how to explain what she means. Thank you.

@tommaimone6526 Год назад

Fabulous tutorial. I have sailed for 45 years and picked up some good tips here. This video is a great resource for all skill levels.

@MrDeepwatermarine Год назад

Not a master sailor and not a beginner either. Nobody has ever told me to move the car on the track. Except to grease it (maintenance). Great lesson.

@Bruin4Life Год назад

I learned a great deal from this teacher as she fully understands and explains the why’s of the situation and how to make the positive changes in trimming your sails.

@timequest9802 Год назад

Your Teaching style is fantastic!!!

@donrumph1 3 года назад

Very good explanation. I wish I had seen it 40 years ago when I started sailing on my then old gaffrig cutter. Thank you Carol.

@robertdaniel2735 4 месяца назад

Thank you Carol for a great video. Very informative! Can't wait for spring to try it out.

@frederickwood9116 2 года назад

Really well paced and presented. Thanks for sharing. Re the “lift” and tell tails. I have personally found it good to phrase it for myself, as “push” on the windward side and “suck” on the leeward side. Both being crucial to keeping the sail efficient. Thanks again. I learned something watching this which is always great. Edit. RU-vid brought me more material by you. I now understand a little more about why you are so so good at teaching this. You really really know and love your stuff. Thanks again.

@stephendodge9939 Год назад

@bryanhebden8398 3 года назад

Really well done! In fact, blown away Carol's technical expertise and ability to systematically break down the various components of trimming a sail and making it a logical process.

@marlings 3 года назад

Thoroughly impressed by the professional skills and knowledge displayed and conveyed here. I will watch this multiple times and know it will help me understand more. Thank you 🙂

@spaceoddity2485 7 месяцев назад

al last. I do now understand the art of trimming. Excellent work young lady. Excellent work.

@Forpublic552 3 года назад

Have to echo all of the comments. First rate instruction! I’ve been blindly experimenting with tweaks to my sail trim and now I have basic understanding of what I’ve been observing along with a battery of new things to try. Awesome!

@JohnSchneidersWildLife 3 месяца назад

@macfarlanenz1 3 года назад

Thank you. Great tutorial. I've never played with jib halyard tension much. Brilliant

@user-retsailor 3 месяца назад

Excellent teaching points. How the heck did I get anywhere while sailing my Catalina 30 ? I only knew the tell-tales should luff aft as I sailed, the more the better. I learned alot on this video. Thank you !

@harbourdogNL Год назад

Fabulous. As someone whose returning to sailing after (too) many years away from it, I'd give this a slew of Thumbs Up if I could. This could only be improved by repeating her narration at again the end of the video, with examples shot while sailing.

@doneddy2204 11 месяцев назад

Great instructor. This is another reason why I love sailing. It’s an applied art

@DcFQGg 3 года назад

You are a natural gifted teacher. Now let´s go out sailing and get a feeling for the headsail-trim.

@ripharwood4138 3 года назад

Excellent explanation of sail shape nuances that comes alive with her skilled drawings and descriptions.

@stuartnicolle6918 3 года назад

Agree with others - this was really well explained and has answered almost all the situations that left me scratching my head. Thank you for putting this together :)

@stevewhite791 Год назад

@bdphourde Год назад

I've never heard it put so well! Easier to understand! Thank you!

@howardbull9001 2 года назад

Brilliant explanation Carol! Very clearly explained. Whether I fully understood it is my problem! I will watch it again to mop up the bits I need to get my ageing head around. Thanks! 👍

@octopusiicaptn8632 Год назад

Simple, yet efficient. Great video

@josephgadoury1057 Год назад

Pretty amazing clarity in your teaching

@TomLongusa 3 года назад

This was wonderful... I just stumbled onto this after watching a similar discussion on a channel with a complete sail trim simulator that allowed nearly every input and gave various different boat views as the input variables were changed. It was great but I actually got more out of this awesome white board presentation. Thank you... Ciao’
