Had to do this the other day. Was in survival mode (it was that windy a Wayfarer had capsized) and big waves. Saw it on one of your videos Joe got us out of trouble that day thank you!!!

[@JoyriderTV]

Nice work! I'm glad that it got you out of trouble.

[@dannydowell9979]

It’s funny……I use to do that 20 years ago on a Prindle 18. Your videos will help a bunch. Going to pick up a Nacra 5.8 on Saturday. Have back up plan for a Hobie 16 if the first falls through. Your videos are so informative! Thanks

[@JoyriderTV]

Yes!!! I'm very pleased for you that you're getting back in the game. I hope that the 5.8 looks sharp!

[@tjrick]

This is great! I wish I would have know this for my last 5 years of sailing a hobie

[@JoyriderTV]

I'm glad that it helps, although a little late/

Ha ha ha what the Hell was the gear cutaway with the rotating human? .... That was great, didn't expect that! 😂👍

[@JoyriderTV]

😁glad that you liked it. Took ages to build that turntable

[@stephenclemmet1926]

Thar Hobie looks the business!

[@JoyriderTV]

Thanks! I think that orange Tramp is really popping!

[@cuxolli]

Thx for charing your knowledge, have a nice day

[@JoyriderTV]

Thanks, you too!

Hi, this seems exactely what I meant some time ago in a response. The other day all of a sudden it did not work. I wondered why. I was sailing with quite some wind and with very difficult waves (short waves on the ijsselmeer, a very big lake). Now watching your video it seems that my mistake this time was to release the jib while tacking. Than it does not work. I sail with different people a lot so I am not allways conscious of their different styles of dealing with the jib and so I did not understand what was going on. It was quite a problematic situation, the brain does not always function that well under stress. Thanks again!

[@JoyriderTV]

Yes, keeping the jib cleated until the boat starts moving forward really helps.

[@daanvangeijlswijk7787]

@@JoyriderTV Moving forward or backward you mean?

[@JoyriderTV]

@@daanvangeijlswijk7787 i'd keep it cleated until the boat is sailing forwards

[@daanvangeijlswijk7787]

I wonder if you could show this tack with more of an emergency situation? I am not sure whether you keep the main sheet clamped or not in your example. Thanks!

[@JoyriderTV]

what would be the nature of the emergency situation?

[@daanvangeijlswijk7787]

@@JoyriderTV High wind and short waves that stop the cat from 'sliding though the tack'. Where I sail I allways have these short waves (ijsselmeer) and they make the static tack necessary all the time.

[@igortseitkin2961]

Thanks for your videos! But how is it different from a regular tack?

[@JoyriderTV]

I'll talk about this in the Q+A tomorrow.

[@TomKirkman1]

I guess that's one more way to cook a goose...

[@JoyriderTV]

It's all about the flavour
