Default What Jeff Knows About Sail Trim is.....

No magic needed - with your extra picture its easy to see that I was

Wow. No defense at all.


You provided all the defense I needed. One picture the 30/30is on
your stern, the next its headed up to pass you to weather. In the
first pic, the jib is too tight, in the second its just right. That's
the way sails work when you change course; you should really take a
lesson sometime.

How embarassing for you, Jeff.
The sad fact that you somehow claim that the second pic backs your
claim that the boat was moving sideways ties it.


As for sliding sideways, perhaps you'll explain to us how a boat does
a fast 90 degree turn without sliding sideways. You do understand its
a physical impossibility, don't you?


I checked my brain at the door.
