    Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge and skills. I knew nothing about sailing, but now I am learning. Your style is relaxed and informative, again many thanks. Keep up the videos they are very good

    These pp consultant videos are very instructional and nicely presented. As one viewer commented the roach is not correctly defined here. It really makes no difference to this video but the roach is the extra part of the sail on the leach which makes the curvature, a deviation from triangular shape.  Wikipedia explains this nicely. I will recommend all these videos to my experienced sailing friends.

    You say that the draft of the upper 2/3 of the mainsail must be adjusted with the backstay, but could it not also be adjusted with a combination of traveler/mainsheet, and boom vang?

    Just what I was looking for as a novice, excellent instruction

    thanks your hypnotic accent has drilled the outhaul's use into the deepest part of my brain ……

    I am a chinaman sailor. If I can understand all this, you must be good! 🙂

    Great explanations in your videos. I've got one season in, hauling out for the winter today, have learned a lot in one season, even more due to your videos. Would be great if you had a diagram or pdf summary of the sail adjustments and what they do. Thanks for all you've done!

    Been novice sailing for years and never had my boat set up for an adjustable outhaul. I think the hardware is there and I'll try rigging it next season. Thanks for the explaination.

    Thank you so much. You have contributed greatly to my understanding of sail control and made me learnt fast.

  • Tiberiu Nicolae

    Never have I heard such a clear explanation for these things. You're a great teacher

  • Eric

    So am I right to assume that loosening the backstay tension will flatten the upper half of the sail?
