I had a laser come down over me running down-wind bloody thing didn't slow down until the mast hit the water at which point I was catapulted into the air and landed in a reservoir during the frost bite season. Which was quite unplesant!

This rigging is over complicated beyond reason. Like many things in life..........someone has intentionally overcomplicated a simple task. But that's not your fault, great job with the instruction. Thanks.

OK but the bowline comes undone. It is not a knot that does well without tension. I have had this happen on numerous occasions on my Laser.

It depends on where in the world you are, these are the names that are used here though if you use kicker and downhaul everyone will know what you mean. You can check the class rules which use vang and Cunningham to define those parts: www.laserinternational.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/ILCA-Class-Rules-2018.pdf

Always wondering why a boom is required for open bottom mainsail since angle of the sail is already control by the traveler all one need to control the shape of the sail is a mainsheet attach directly at the clew?

what would you suggest if the traveller is really fine so you can't the fid through?

@firstlast7719 4 жыл бұрын

What is that tape over the tiller at 4:35 ???? Is it metal tape? Good idea, I want to do this to avoid the metal getting worn from the traveller.

@XDlasersailing 2 жыл бұрын

The metal piece can pop off with alot of sailing, so that ensures it stays on. If you lose the metal piece the traveler line will saw through the tiller.

@angelorondini5835 2 жыл бұрын

I have tape on mine because the metal part was popping off the tiller, but the traveller should still contact the metal, not the tape, or else the tape gets worn out (the metal doesn't get worn out, it's tough enough)

For me you went way too fast, even pausing and starting it was still impossible to see what you were doing. The video itself is really useful, if you could pause on each movement of the rope that would make it much simpler to follow. Thanks for taking the time to do this :-)

@patrick148da8 5 жыл бұрын

At 3min 40sec the video seems to recommend a figure-of-eight as a stopper knot on the mainsheet at the boom end. Figure-of-eight knots can become undone if subjected to constant flailing so the mainsheet could become completely free which would not be a good experience! Much safer would be to use a bowline or a double or triple overhand stopper knot.

@vincent9028 5 жыл бұрын

the reason you dont use a bowline, is because it gives you a few cm less of pulling in the main sheet (about 5-10 cm). its always a 8-knot behind the block, the chance of it opening is so unlikable nobody really cares about it.

@masonmunkey6136 5 жыл бұрын

You can’t trim in all the way with a bowline

@firstlast7719 4 жыл бұрын

I like to use a double overhand stopper for the mainsheet at both ends

@XDlasersailing 2 жыл бұрын

A bowline even if tied small prevents full block to block trim, the reason not to use a double or triple overhand knot is because it creates a larger knot which may cause more friction, since the pulley wheel is up against the knot. A double overhand is fine for the other end of the mainsheet and don't worry, the eight knot at the block end won't come undone while sailing. You're correct that eight knots can come undone for example at the loose end of the sheet from flailing around. The double or triple overhand can be a better option at the loose end in the cockpit also because here you want a bigger knot to prevent the tail from running out of the mainsheet block.

I never liked putting my sail onto pavement. The sail gets dirty and is heated up a ton when touching the hot asphalt.

@XDlasersailing 4 жыл бұрын

That's a good point, I never put my sail on wet pavement or if you're sailing in a hot climate it might be too hot for the sail, I usually roll the sail over my boat if you can't lay it on the ground. Some regattas you don't have much choice.
