    Hi Stephen, I have a question for you: do you release the mainsheet at any point during the tack?

      I k is I’m not Stephen but I’m an Opti sailor so I can tell you when your doing a roll tack or medium wind tack your and you ur rolling the boat on top of you you can real ease the main sheet to get under the sail to cross to the other side

    Do you still sail an opti or do you sail XBOats, 420s, Lasers etc.
    Also have you ever been to Valentines Day Regatta at Spyc. Because that's actually my home club.

      The life jacket is called a Nob and it is from Brazil! This is the link to the specific model on the website: www.nobmultisports.com/loja/coletes/colete-adulto/colete-nob-vela-flex-personalizado/

      Arguably. Stephan has beaten him at regattas leading up to worlds (Garda, etc.).

      @Brief_Bits1 10 місяців тому

      No in fact I recommend Sheeting on pre tack and if it's to much sheet off a little post tack

    • @Simpsonschannel1
      @Simpsonschannel1 8 місяців тому

      Well when you’re coming in under the boom before you go to the other side of the boat you can release the main sheet enough so that you can go under the boom

      ⁠@@Brief_Bits1well you don’t know how much you’ll need to sheet off to get under the boom I think you should sheet in as your turning up and real ease the sail to get under the boom
