I like your bubbly music . Great narration. Easy to understand.

[leviterande]

I really really and truly dont understand how you people can SAIL AGAINST the wind in zick zack or in any other way. I tried everything and I cant sail against it . Whatever position my boat or the sail has it will go with the wind :(:(

[TheRadioTimeMachine]

Sailing against the wind is much easier than sailing with the wind to your back.

[leviterande]

I really wish that was true cuz when I took my boat yesterday , the wind just hit me and pushed me along and i could in no way sail against it, I tried every angle but the wind yet somehow pushed me

[Chazzny4]

Where do you sail?

[leviterande]

in lakes

[dboy4ever]

you never sail directly into the wind. You can only sail at 45 degrees into the wind. If you can't do that, maybe your boat doesn't have a daggerboard?

[TOMKCITYABBEY]

This is so easy!! I mean I can go backwards and launch a boat singlehandidly. Why can't you show the extensions on the RYA sailing schemes

[carlcs2]

Hey that was really well done. More Please!!

[BeeRich33]

Is that an Alberg 22? I grew up on an A30. Great boat. On a Laser, that's a great move to use for positioning at a race. Manipulating the tiller, you can drift backwards, steer the stern then yank the mainsheet to get moving again, but you have to quickly crank the tiller in your windward side.

It's a Tanzer 22
