The lazy sheet on the jenny looks taut,
the fender on the sidedeck is very poor seamanship,
I cannot figure out what that pile of string on the coachroof is
I'm surprised at the level of heel in such a light breeze
the belly of the main seems too far forward
The jenny car is too far forward
Is the topping lift too tight?

The fender on deck is certainly "not" very poor seamanship. Wrong.
You can't figure out the pile of "string" even after I identified it?
Level of heel is correct as she's just to put the boat to starboard so the sun
would be abeam. So wrong again.

Yes, actually it is. Fenders should be stowed unless you're
using them or getting ready to use them.

Yes, it certainly is poor seamanship. Fenders should be either used
or stowed. They should never be sitting on deck.

Wrong and wrong again. There are OBVIOUS errors. So far you people list things
that you can't certain of.
Very depressing indeed.

RB

I agree with you on some points. The pile of string must be a jenny or
main halyard but he's made it up in way that is not good seamanship. The
fender is very bad and shows pure laziness -an anathema to a real
sailor. The mainsheet is way too tight and traveler positioned badly.
The helm is not paying attention to what is going on. The section foot
of the main is too flat. looks like a major lack of chafe protection on
those shrouds and screws. The lazy sheet _is_ tight. Life lines are
slack. Other ropes are cheesed (cheezing is for port only). Lazy jacks
have not been taken down along boom.

Gosh that's 11!
