Why is there such a recieved need for graphics .... crap. Go back to real people please and give them a job.
-
I found it difficult to listen to the computer voice; like an old computer game.
-
Great video and the editing is awesome.
-
I thought rubber turned to the right would send the boat leftward, not to the right?
-
This isn't a 420, which is what I'm learning to sail, but the info is good nonetheless.
-
nice you kept it short and simple! at 1.12-1.14 min it seems to hang and repeat itself.....keep on posting
-
I like it.. When do we set sail? Drifting......
-
thanks but i can never remember all that terminology when i am drunk on the water. i just say righ, left, front and back when i am driving.

Keel is centerboard

THANK YOU so much for making this. This is exactly what i needed. I don't care if the voice is a computer. The animations make it easy to follow. I'm planning to get a sunfish to practice on soon so this is great.
-
what kind of sail boat is this?
-
your intentions with this are good but to be honest, that narration makes it fairly impossible to watch.
-
Lots of great information here. Seriously. The format isin't the easyest, however once you get past that, you learn a lot, or at least I did.

The keel keeps the boat from "sliding" with the wind. When weighted, it provides a counterbalancing righting force when the boat heels.
-
@Panomition Yes, narrated by "Anonymous".

@Pooshooter5k oh i get it now so if there was no keel the boat would just move with the wind and the keel stops that and in doing so it makes the boat heel over becuse of the side ways force on the keel?
-
@jellybean3264 The keel on a sail boat has the primary function of creating sidways drag in the water to counter the sideways frce of the wind blowing on the sails. This stops the boat from just moving with the wind. Some but not all keels on sailboats are weighted to im prove stability but this is a secondary function and not found on all sailboats. because the sail is on top and the wind is pushing on it to the side and the keel is on bottom and is resisting the push ofthe wind the boat leans.

hey Idiot , try listening to the video
-
the keel is to stop the boat from capsideing you idiot no to help capsideing it

New to sailing or new to yachting, this is the ideal introduction to what sailing is all yacht is all about. We use our 3D virtual world to demonstrate everything from parts of a boat to how to manouver
