A broader coarse and cleaning up the lines would have been helpful. But most important error you made was the coarse, you where sailing to close to the wind. A genaker is made for broader courses
Your boat tends to broach or broaches because you sail way to close to the wind when you put your Genaker (in the movie close to 90° to the apparant wind). When you fly your genaker you should sail a course about 150°-160° of the wind to get him flying safely, to avoid a sudden gybe of the main and a broach of the boat because of the heeling effect caused by geny who flys to close to the wind. Once flying you could sail closer to the wind to get some speed (when sailing single handed never closer than 120°, and at helm position, with the tiller in the hand "so you can bear off when the boat tends to heel to much) your boat should not heel to much. Once your boat makes speed steer back to a broader coarse, due to change of the aparrant wind.
the problem is your angel to the wind. Start in downwind and then you can start to test how high you can go, the Genaker does not work like a jib. The video was uploaded some time ago have you improved your skills on singelhand the elan? :)
Web Browne Come and teach me or Share your video how you solo sail. Before coment any thing You should think twice could i took better video. Share yours than talk.
Отличная лодка! Отличная погода и ветер! Отличная прогулка под мотором с поднятыми парусами! Есть же любители...😄😄👍
So negative guys! Our friend is having a good time

Johan Lemmens your right, but it try to turn in to wind when its broach. İt needs aditional crew and weight to keep in cours.

i try it single handed again your right if i tent to go 150 degre or more it flies wit no fuss...
Love a video where we just watch a guy sail. It didn't go perfect but that's sailing.

TheN30M i bought code 0 and wont use spinaker single handed, with code 0 i can easly Make 7.5 knt on calm wheather.
Don’t try anymore, you’ll get killed someday by the boom. You are not ready for solo
Solo motoring?
which keel choice do you have?
Looks like shallower draught one?
it has standart retractable keel . My spinnaker is 55m2 its quite big for single hand .
Está aún muy verde
Un desastre,!!!!!El asimétrico lo bajo por cualquier parte.!no lo rompió de casualidad....Y meta motor nomas!!!!
Buscate una Génova
👏👏👏

You need to learn how to sail before trying to run a spinnaker solo.
