Ok Jon,
If no one else is going to ask the question, I will. How did the Lazy Sheet get out of its Car, into the water, back on board, get forward of the mast and get the handle? Aren't your sheets long enough to stay rigged when they aren't the working jib? Where the hell were you and what where you doing while this, so called Lazy Sheet was so busy splashing in the water, working up wind on its own, working around the mast, hooking the handle and then with the added weight work up wind again? Your explanation should get us past Election Day :^) And you worry about a handle left in a Halyard Winch----Please!!!! May I never need tutoring from an instructor like you g Ole Thom |

I didn't think when I asked that I had to spell the whole question out....he
must run awfully short sheets...also when we tack, we try to keep things under control and keep some tension on the off line until the last moment so you don't unintentionally depower before you tack...

Where the hell were you and what where you doing while this, so called Lazy Sheet was so busy splashing in the water, working up wind on its own, working around the mast, hooking the handle and then with the added weight work up wind again? Like I said, this happens during classes and very windy days. The sheets are long enough to get into the water and whip around. They don't need to "work around the mast." They just need to brush the mast. And you worry about a handle left in a Halyard Winch----Please!!!! May I never need tutoring from an instructor like you g So, you would give so detailed an explanation of everything before it happens that your students would learn nothing by themselves? I like to get students to make minor mistakes and use the mistakes as object lessons. |
