TODAY'S TIP
PAY ATTENTION when driving downwind!
Downwind sailing can be a lot of fun but it is also a very precarious point of sail. It's the point of sail when you have to pay the most attention. Just because it may feel as though things have lightened up, don't be fooled by the change in the apparent wind. Now you have the possibility of the boom coming across - FAST. Accidental jibes can severely injure people and cause serious damage to your boat. PAY ATTENTION to the angle of the wind, your sails and the sea state. It's extremely important that the driver is focused on all of these aspects and drives accordingly.
