Understanding Offshore Weather

Created by the Storm Trysail Foundation, the Safety-At-Sea video series serves as a resource for sailors. Normally, reserved for our seminar participants, the Storm Trysail Club is releasing these videos to the public now for sailors to enjoy and learn while they are self-quarantining.

Keeping in mind that this is not seamanship, it is racemanship. Seamanship is about being able to look at the weather in real time and make a good judgment (as opposed to "knowing") what is coming at you.

"tuck it in and shake it out" - once more in English please. This video should be titled understanding Gulfstream weather for sailors.

@CanadianTexaninLiguria It's about reducing sail area. Tuck in = reef the sail. Shaking out a reef means to increase sail area - going from 2nd to 1st, or 1st reef to full sail.
