I've watched KZfaq sailing channels for a decade. Each time they quickly show some details about how to actually sail I pay close attention. I wish that I had these videos a long time ago and it's greatly appreciated.

Im just beginning my interest in learning to sail and im going to watch everything this man makes.

Love your vids man, actual sailing and not just some fancy drone shots of beaches

Your English is perfect, your teachings are also perfect. I'm loving what your doing man

Your love of sailing and Croatia are apparent in your videos Igor. Genuine thoughts and insights are a breath of fresh air. I watch many sailing channels and really appreciate your honesty regarding the boats you sail. Keep up the good work.

I just bought a boat in and trying to visit Croatia. Your videos theyr perfect. So some Croat friends out hear in San Pedro,ca are teaching me Croatian before my visit. They said to greet everyone meet I meet with "yebbi si pederu". They said it's warm hello.

Mirko's wine cellar is definitely not for the average american tourist. They would have to rub themself with olive oil before they squeeze through the tunnel 😂.Absolute love this hidden gem and also the secret beach entrance! Nice beginner tutorial also from you Igor, as a non skipper/sailor i learned a lot!

Best video on sail trimming we have run into after years of studying videos and getting first 4 ASA certs done - wish I would have seen this before our first non instructor charter of a 45ft cat.

Love your videos. Croatia is stunning.

Absolutely brilliant. Love your videos. So informative, so educational. Thanks.

This is truly an amazing video showing the whole strategy of sailing. I've not seen this before and it's great content. Thank you.

Thanks Igor, for a excellent tutorial on how to sail a catamaran. The explanation was very clear and to the point. Keep up the good work and I look forward to the next tutorial.

I've been sailing monohulls since I was a young boy in the early 1970's with many miles under various keels. I have a bare boat catamaran coming up and these videos of yours are fantastic. After the BVI, I want to come and sail Croatia.

Excellent Igor, another very well explained tutorial/video. I've just watched this one and already looking forward to your next upload!

Simply excellent! Igor, you are a great teacher. I wish you would do a sailing class video that people could purchase.

Great walkthrough - I'm going to be going through this training early next year and plan on living on trimaran soonish, so learning these skills is critical - love this

When I am ever going to buy my dream catamaran, my budget will cover to hire you, to teach me everything. Thanks

A great teacher loads of patience and so knowledge for one so young I'm never board

17:40 I love the way you teach Igor! Haha. ‘Watch what you are doing and figure it out’.

Remember.... spaghetti on boat are good only in boiling water.You have to spend time to coil rope because that's really dangerous, you can skid or stumble over bord. I use snaps hooks and a couple of ropes to have the deck clean and safe. Great video! and not for for rookie sailors only. I subscribed to your channel🖖

Love your channel bro. I learn so much about sailing. Looking at buying a catamaran in the near future... You state an honest review about all the boats, love it! I have been a boatie for almost 20 years now. Own a 6.4 Aluminium half cab with 150 Mercury, Love the fishing and continues exploring. Keep-Up he good work and enjoy yourself! Greetings from a Bosnian, Down under, east coast Moreton Bay

Great, Igor! It looks so simple. It tempts me to try myself.

Excellent video taking your viewers through all points of sail with a self tacking jib. This is quite the sailing lesson in one video, and your attention to details is key. I hope many who would like to sail but think it’s too difficult to learn watch this video. With proper instruction, sailing is not difficult. Seamanship is different, and comes over time with experience, but learning to to move the boat under sail is not complicated once the fundamentals are understood, which is what you have taught here. We’ll done Igor! A bit different from monohulls, but the principles are the same.

Hello Igor ! Thank you so much for your fantastic material and fun and honest videos .

finally some real teaching hands on video. I follow Multihull group , nice as well. Really love theses tuning details, and tips. great Igor !!! Thank you

I was so excited there was another video, I always learn so much xx

Very good Igor, your tone of voice for learning is perfect!

Really enjoy your channel. You provide excellent hands-on technical commentary on what you are doing, and why. Thanks! My only critique is that here in the US we never sail with our fenders hanging off the topsides.

What a very interesting video. Whith your explanations, using a catamaran seems to be so easy. Good job and what a beautiful country 👏

Wow how times have changed, grew up on a 70s piver tri. Had a high use radar, OP was a thing out of the stonage.. worked sometimes!!! Hand 🔧 everything and we weren't fast but heavy by skippers choice. Oh SF Bay, always cold and windy, lots of fog and low clouds but always fun, I think!! Don't miss the maintance of that boat.

Great videos .. love watching your channel .. I learn something new on boats , sailing on every episode..

Great sailing enjoy all your knowledges and topics keeping us on track on all sailing tactics from Georgia USA

Dziękuję za piękne widoki. U Mirko to chyba kryształ i inne kamienie. 🙂

I like these real life how to videos more than any other

What a super teacher!

That was really nice to watch! Great job Igor, you are a good instructor. Want to visit that house and drink wine someday : )

Hi Igor . Love your videos . Have been a nautical nut all my life. You are an excellent teacher and Captain and all around Nice guy .Keep up the great videos and teaching .

Bok Igor, a really great video!! Hvarla! You are a really good teacher. If i will have a catamaran, i will need your help for sure. Cant't wait for another video like this! Greets, Michi

Very good Igor, looking forward to the next one🏋🏻‍♀️🤟🏋🏻‍♀️

Excellent instructor. I appreciate the value of your videos ⛵️👍🏽

So thankful for such a good video and information in it. Have you considered to make a How to video about 1. anchoring and 2. sailing in stormy conditions. Once again so thankful for your work. I am sure, you have really helped people to have fun sailing and avoid damages to the boats etc.

"Usually people are not looking forward and then you crash into something. " 😂 important lessons, folks.

So Good, Thanks In two weeks we will put in water our Lagoon 500 after winter, here in Vigo and it's perfect to remember, even your cat is much easy. Thanks for your videos

Great videos! So clearly explained and illustrated. Thank you for your efforts in putting this together. 🙏

I must say you do teach very well. you explain very well.

Prejako, kralju najveći !!! best video ever

Thanks Igor!! love your videos!!

Very nice video. Finally somebody who really explains the details of cat sailing. I missed the name of the restaurant....

Odličan video Igore, hvala :)

Love your vids bro, super nice, super helpful just awesome.

Yes true grate explane and clear voice and many good explane inside out and sailing

Best tutorial I've seen .

best video ever! tx Igor!

Hi Igor! Great video! Thumbs up! 👍 If I may suggest something, I'm sure that many of us would really appreciate a video dedicated to handling a catamaran, anchoring, docking!

Great job! Great teacher! gr

One of the best vids for cat sailing ❤ only missing techniques for reefing or sailibg in heavy seas.

Very good Igor. As a cat owner I prefer to use the throttles only in a marina or mooring with rudders central. More control and not unpredictable directions from driving with helm turned in another direction. BTW FP cats do have a connection for the bridge on the inside of the bow near the front and it works well. André in Sydney

Need more of this kind of sailing videos

Borat goes sailing, this is awesome 😂

Love it Igor! So when you say "once the boat has speed, I can steer better", that's known as authority. You gain authority on the rudder when moving faster through the water.

Verder good tutorial. Thank you.

Please Please Do a series of SAIL tutorials. You have a decent following now ....of food lovers LoL.

When the sailing students use the winches and turn the rope around:They can loose their fingers - wrong handling

This channel is awesome.

great training video

Hi Igor, I learned so much from this video, thanks a lot. I will be at Biograd at September this year and I will contact you at Oktober for end of Saison 23.

Nice video with good points. Wish you also have one like this for monohulls

Very good Thanks Igor

Hey ..Igor... your very funny 🤣

Thanks Igor for your compliments. If you need extra info about code 0 material, handling etc, we can help you out. For example, 1:2 halyard is a must have for the code 0, otherwise you cannot get the tension for the antitorsion rope in the luff. Take care. Best regards from Supreme sails

I to owned a Piver Lodestar ketch 5yrs in SF Bay great live aboard and sailer obviously all sail and technology has change would have been great to own now! Currently from Canton Georgia USA.

Great videos, Igor. We chartered a Moorings Cat in 2007 when there were very few in Croatia. It looks like there are many more nowadays. I wish you would mention the islands and establishments you are visiting.

Nice video!

Nice video Igor I’m sure those guys learned a lot during this trip ! Really nice. We don’t have a bow spirt so we don’t use a code Zero or code D but us a asymmetrical spinnaker which we fly off one of the bows. We have wishard bow eyes on each bow. We can push up to 65 degrees before the luff starts folding and down to 150 degrees. Most of our sail across the Southern Atlantic Ocean was done with this sail. Sadly a mistake lead to the sail being up near Brazil and a squall destroyed the sail making the rest of our crossing across the top of South America very tough with a main and Genoa in light winds at 140+150 degrees. (We have ordered new asymmetrical and symmetrical sails from Australia.) . In terms of the water makers the pleated sails are to filter the saltwater and the carbon filter (particles) is for reverse flushing with possible chlorine particles not to damage your membrane. Rgards Mike Odličen video Igor,zajel si v se pomembne stvari,ki jih uporabljamo,ko jadramo,zares odlična predstavitev!Bravo,gledala sva do prve do zadnje minute,ker je bilo tako zanimivo.Kot sem rekla Miku,mislim da je tole privacy predstavitev jadranja s katamaranom,ki mi je pokazala praktičen posted jadranja,upravljanja jader itd.Se veselim tvojih prihajajočih videov.Hvala,ker deliš svoje znanje z nami.In ja,Hrvaška je s svojimi otoki in hrano preprosto magična.Kje točno je bilo posneto to?In tista vinska klet…fantastično!Lep pozdrav is Surinama.Maja

Another great and informative video. Great job, Igor! Would you mind sharing the details about that Code 0 from Supreme Sails? Looks really nice. Thanks!

I love to see you sail a dufour 48 and see your thoughts on the boat .

Hi Igor, very good video, clear explanation. Just one remark: I don't like people to push buttons putting their arm through the weel. Even on auto, strange things can happen and this weel is not forgiving. Thanks.

Odlično!

Fantástico!

man i liked that video i would like more instructional stuff like online course

Hey Igor, great video, very informative and as usual beautiful scenery. I do not have a boat yet but plan to in the near future. In the mean time I am trying to learn and get some experience any way I can. Do you teach people to sail? Is there an opportunity to come with you during charters as voluntary crew to get some on the job training? Thanks for the great videos!

Subscribed. Nice job.

Great video. Much more of the same please.

The angle of the rope on the Antal winch is wrong, should be coming from below. same for other brand winches btw. as it is right now it can actually lock the rope, creating a dangerous situation. surprised with some of the setup, for instance, the winch handle can not be turned on the port winch without hitting the canvas.. And the furling line to the drum of the jib seems to be very thin and doing a detour over the boat, it s not practical. Like your way of teaching its clear and it helped me explain things to my team, thank you for that. The spaghetti is obviously a dangerous learning point, but it has to do with the setup made by the builder .

You have more patience than me.

Hi Igor, thank you for all you have brought me in these videos. I wonder if you can tell me when this video (week or month of year?)? I'd like to charter in early season like this. Not thrilled about Jugo winds, but this looks great! Please share time of year! And I hope we can buy you a beer someday! Havala Von Ma Pumiji!! Dovedjenia!

One of the Best Videos ive Seen in youtube about how to sail. Just One question: for cruising you prefer Cats pr Monohauls? Dobre

Very good instructional video. Small correction, the headsail being used is a jib, not a genoa

Love your videos Mr Igor. I have an Elba 45 on order. What downwind sail/s would you recommend for a world cruising?

Really enjoyed your Saona 47 review. Best video I'd ever seen on boats. This one is pretty good - I take it you're training some new Cat owners?

I just got back from helping to crew a Lagoon 42 from Lanzarote to Mindelo. You referred to a self-tacking Genoa which maybe you meant self-tacking Gib? The Lagoon I was on had a self-tacking Gib and a Code zero and despite the advice given, we sailed in classic tradewind conditions wing on wing with the Gib cleated on the port hull and the code zero out to starboard and created our own customised backstay with a line holding down the boom to both aft quarters. What struck me after sailing a lot of mono hulls with in-mast reefing was how potentially dangerous it was handling the mainsail on the Lagoon, particularly with the owner insisting that it was ‘safer’ to raise the mainsail heading dead downwind rather than upwind. As an aside - I have never herd you mention just how noisy it is on passage in the aft port cabin! Oh my God - how can any manufacturer think that banging and clattering is acceptable lol 😂

excellent

Is it some sailing course or just new crew? Very informative video in nice environment.. And with good food :) I see there are many compromises on the cat (mainsheet holding the boom, self-tackling jib), yet it is on my bucket list to sail one

Thanks!

at 22:50, it looks like a good time to release the spinnaker ....The spinnaker would have balanced the boat out nicely for smooth sailing......You don''t have to release the line for jenoia.. Siinikers would resresove this quite nicely, and pull uou along respectively.

Thank You 🙏🇰🇷🇺🇸

Great video!. Have you ever sailed an adventure catamaran ? They look nice but I haven't actually seen anyone sail one.

Thanks Igor, for interesting videos. Which catamaran would you recommend for going between Croatia and Caribbean, approx 45-49 feet, rigged for shorthanded sailing? Maybe you could make a video about it🙂

Excellent & timely video! We're leaving in two days for Split and renting a Moorings 45' catamaran. Can you tell me where Mirko's place is? We want to go there!

When is the next 4 hour sailing vid coming Love your vids.
