Somehow I doubt sheeting in with teeth is a recommended technique

These people look like hacks! Why does no one, except a few use a cam cleat for the main sheet? And how the hell do these clowns manage to capsize in such light air? How about pinching or release the mainsheet instead? Lol!

Barely anyone in modern dinghy sailing uses cleats for the main sheet bud. And the guys who capsized in the one very light scene clearly weren’t the worlds greatest sailor, I’m sure every beginner has made a mistake like that. I’m an experienced dinghy sailor and even I still capsize in the light sometimes. So don’t call someone a hack because they do something differently to what you do.

@@chadrew6 Well for a regional rep dinghy sailor, and having have sailed about 20 different types of dinghies, I'd like to think that I know what I'm talking about. Only 1 dinghy I've sailed has a cleat for the main sheet, and it barely gets used. This is because a good sailor is constantly trimming their sail non-stop, making small adjustments to adjust flow through the leech. So actually, not many small boats come with them installed.

@@finnbalchin961 I think you're wrong. A good cam cleat will allow for plenty of adjustment. I am a past national junior champion, Atlantic coast champion and district champion in the Jet 14 class and I've never seen anything but a Laser without cam cleats. It would be incredibly tiring and inefficient to not have one not to mention that you'd lose a lot of boat speed from sloppy accidents with holding the sheet continually. Going upwind there is very little need for adjustment and any downwind adjustments can be made while using the cam cleat.

@@chadrew6 You are out of touch Chad. The fact that you said also going upwind there is little need for adjustments is an indication of your racing ability.
