So in reading charts is the opposite way to reading an OS map (along the corridore and up the stairs) ie would be long the lat no for a grid reference

@Learn2Sail 24 күн бұрын

Yup. I guess it is. Latitude first, then longitude. On the bottom or horizontal scale

When I watched this, exactly at the most interesting part of the video the explanation was gone, and the video was taken too far away to see how it was done. The loops no problem, thing them up 🤷🏻‍♂️

Checking the oil is the most important thing for an engine (in addition to maintaining the diesel fuel clean and free of water /algae). Check it every day before starting. If sailing hard for a long period, with waves on the stern/transom, check it before starting the engine again to make sure no water has found its way up the exhaust pipe and into the engine. Water ingress into the engine is an engine killer. Also, you need to check the oil's color for water (light brown "creamy" oil) and smell (diesel fuel) .

As you approach for pickup, should you switch off the engine? Also, if it's > 8 knots, or gusty, is there danger of the boat drifting over the top of the MOB?

Nice video - can I ask what do you do with the main sheet - yours seemed to be left alone - normally would release for heave to? Thanks

@Learn2Sail Жыл бұрын

Hi there. Depending on the type of mainsail and how much headsail you have out will determine if you need to ease the main sheet off. It is quite common to have to ease the main but best not to let it go completely as it would be a hazard to those on deck. Every boat heaves to differently so practice and see what works best on yours. 😊👍

would you really invoke mayday immediately?

@Learn2Sail Жыл бұрын

Yes indeed and the reason is you are buying your MOB time. A person falling overboard will succumb to cold water shock, especially if the sea temp is 15 degrees C or lower. Cold water shock can induce cardiac arrest and secondary drowning. As skipper you. Won’t know the condition of your MOB until you get back to them. How long is that going to take?? 15, 20 mins? When you get back to them if its the worst case scenario then if you hit the distress alert button you have bought that person 30 mins which can mean the difference between life and death. If they are undamaged then you can always cancel the distress call. Your MOB still has to be taken to hospital ASAP because of the risk of Delayed drowning. As a skipper you have some big alls to make - that’s the job 😊

Those little boats with the sails position drawn on them is the single best thing I’ve seen on any learning to sail video. I’m picking up a CLC Passagemaker dinghy today as my first ever boat….. you can count the times I’ve been on a boat on one hand and that includes ferries 😂. So pumped to get on the water it’s always been a dream of mine to sail and finally I’m going to have a crack at it. Thanks for the great content!

Perhaps add that longitudinal minutes of arc are nautical miles only at the equator, and that they get smaller as you move closer to the poles, because the circles around the planet become smaller. (Genuine question: Do we take into account that the Earth is better approximated by an ellipsoid than by a perfect sphere, because of its rotation, or is that effect too insignificant?)

@Learn2Sail Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the comment, but the video is geared at those just starting out in learning charts, too much information to start with would swamp them. These things get mentioned in the classroom. Thanks for your input.

I can understand how the longitude lines will change across the curvature of the Earth, but I thought the parallels were called that because they are equally spaced?

@lukasvandewiel860 Жыл бұрын

@@bigglyguy8429 The planes through parallels are all indeed parallel as you say. If you stand on a parallel, and draw and imaginary line from your feet to the center of the earth, the angle that line makes with the equatorial plane is the value of the parallel. If the earth were a perfect sphere, the arc distance from parallel to parallel would be the same from equator to pole. However, the centrifugal force due to rotation of the earth turns our planet into an ellipsoid. If you are standing at sea level at the equator, you are standing about 6378 km from the center of the earth. At the poles that is just 6357 km. 21 km difference. This causes the parallels near the equator to be further apart than at the poles. A degree latitude at the equator is very close to 2 * pi * 6378 / 360 = 111.317 km and a degree latitude at the poles is very close to 2 * pi * 6357 / 360 = 110.951 km. Almost 400 meter difference. Might be small enough to ignore on the vast ocean, or it might not be.
