Thank you Andrew very good all the boats here are racing boats. Is there an advantage in putting a sprit on my boat Oceania 43 ?

What is the ideal heel angle to try and keep in light wind going downwind ~140?

when you refer to wind angle is that true or apparent? It isn't defined in the video.

How would you trim the Gennaker if you need to go as much windward as possible

Tack line down to the knot on the pole, very little play in the sheet since the wind is forward and no rotation of the spinnaker.

I've noticed nobody in this video releases the outhaul, even in light air. The clews are all the way to the mark on the boom. Is this new thinking?

I think easing the outhaul when turning down wind is best practice just like tightening the vang. I think some teams have a perception that it is not worth enough on short W-L courses to always take the time.

@@danstanford3071 I agree completely, and I even have the outhaul on a winch, but look at the black stripes on the boom, their outhaul is tight as a drum.

Great content! Any scenario to ease the Gennaker halyard?
@leonardbohm5604

...or do you use it exclusively for hoisting and dousing?

Andrew Parkes thanks for your answer. Taking from it too that you probably don’t use the halyard for trim (likewise to main and head sail) but solely for hoisting/dropping the Gennaker.

Keep in mind that there is more wind higher off the water, and the closer the head of the sail is to the mast, the steadier it will fly. So keep the halyard fully hoisted, and ease the tack line if you want the sail to fly higher.

Helms person, man, woman, driver. Make up your mind! Or why not call it a spade like they did the last thousand years Also tack line? You don’t call it a sheet line right
