Very good video. For my small sailing dinghy, to be really sure I need to drop all sails for a squall as the boat heels considerably under just bare pole.

significance famous her now appeal.

It kind of looked like he had a reef in the main as well- they might have already been reefed due to prevailing conditions, but it might have been worth mentioning.

Guys, motion This one truly sounds strongly foommean

I have been sailing for 70 years and he is simply too complacent for me? No lifeline. Poor camera work - try cleaning the lens and the sound track is very poor. Guess he has never heard of subtitles. In short, seriously, I would not have him on board when I am skipper.

Um, sailing boat.... Show the sail and what ur using to show us.....

He's constantly turning the wheel through big angles port, starboard, part, starboard as every small wave passes under the boat. Just hold it still!

I wish the lead in wasn't so long. If you ware watching 5-6 videos in the series you waste a lot of time with the singing and other stuff that really is only particularly enjoyable the first time or two.

Great video! We are selling our power boat and switching to sail later next year. We are currently cruising the Caribbean and I always love catching up with your channel! https://youtu.be/-QpAMvKhFzU

Good video, we normally heave too.

Is there a risk of broaching on this reach if the winds/seas were to pick up further.?
-
what do you do if you get lost in the ocean? do an episode on that
-
Did you use a preventer in case of a wind shift, or trust your 'windstincts?'
-
Is there a particular reason why the narrator, presumably also the skipper or mate, isn't wearing a harness nor tethered-in on a trans-Atlantic with a squall eminent? I would think it pretty important in "Coping with Squalls" to be tethered-in offshore.

That wheel is it electrically isolated , what would happen if the boat was hit by lightning , taking a club racer across an ocean
-
will you ever understand how to use a microphone in windy conditions? I guess not. Awfull stupid noise or was that the comment?
-
Beyond uninformative.
-
Was there a reason why you only broad reach? What if you're in a case where you need be on a beam or close reach to avoid a major obstacle?

We show how to identify squalls and prepare the boat and crew to weather them safely so that they can even be enjoyed as an exhilarating and refreshing experience.
