Read so much over egged stuff to just get to what you fantastically summed up in 5 mins - Great Stuff - Many thanks

Nautilus Sailing - 4 years ago

Excellent Paul! Appreciate the feedback... We tried our best to keep it concise, yet thorough.

This is great

This video is what many videos purport to be but are not; a quick and concise introduction to basic sail trim! This is exactly what I was looking for! The mention of the jib fairlead car was just enough "rule of thumb" for beginners without going into the depths of sail twist! PERFECT! Also this is the first mention of how to use tale tails on the main sail that I've run across. I found the pace and dept of information on this video easily digestible and immediately applicable on my next weekend charter.

Thanks for the great feedback James!So glad you are finding these videos helpful...

Well this was rather informative. As a central continental land locked individual, sail handling has always been some mystical unknown to me. If only there were some sort of course or school that could teach me all about it.

K Vlad - 4 years ago

@Nautilus Sailing I'm already sold on the idea. My girlfriend and I both intend to fly in to attend your A.S.A certification catamaran sailing course once we've settled our landlocked business here and start our fantastic journey together. It's only a matter of time and timing. See you at our earliest opportunity. A little luck and a lot of ambition has us headed your way. Thank you so much for the channel and services you provide.

@K Vlad Would be great to have you aboard one day! These courses really are a blast with a wonderful balance of structured learning, lots of hands on experience, and some amazing adventures exploring beautiful islands in the process :)

@Nautilus Sailing Sincere thanks. I'll enroll as soon as I'm able to reach the coast. It's going to be great.

Nautilus Sailing - 4 years ago
