Fire Extinguisher Practice - Storm Trysail Club Safety at Seas Seminar
Переглядів 499 років тому
excerpted from feelinknotty.wordpress.com Using both chemical and CO2 extinguishers, everyone got numerous chances to put our skills to the test. Following the PASS acronym (Pull the pin, Aim at the Base, Squeeze the trigger, Sweep side to side) we honed our techniques for a skill we’d hopefully never need to use on the water. There were plenty of fire extinguishers on hand for us to work with....

Nice recovery! A good crew always knows what to do.
Interesting how the spin sheet got pulled over the boom.
happens all the time when the boom is a little short during a broach, especially if you don't have twings for the chute (typical with asyms).
Could you explain a “broach” and why or how it happens for a novice?
@@mikeforte8045 Quite simply, it's losing steering because the headsails are overpowered and heel the boat to the point where the rudder leaves the water. At that point the sails aren't trimmed for the wind direction and a kite or chute fills up like an air balloon and keeps the boat heeled over on its side, either until wind shifts or sails spill some of the wind or the kite/chute is taken down. As long as the rudder is out of the water the skipper has no control over what the boat does; it's all controlled by wind and sail, and in heavy winds or gusts it can happen on a moment's notice.
nice recovery, mate. I've been a part of (perhaps even caused) worse.
love it!
