Sailboat Racing Tips: Up To Speed on Mainsail Trim

Sailing World Racing Editor Mike Ingham explains the basics of mainsail trim.

At 15:50 you have a great hypothetical discussion with your main trimmer but it's important to the viewer to know: too much "stall" on the telltale means you're over trimmed and stalling the boat speed. Mike says, "It doesn't feel right..." or "something's not quite right..." What he means is, "The boat feels slow. Ease the main just a bit to build more boat speed."
