Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm out here by myself as you might have seen in some of our other videos we've been doing a few sailboat things lately

it's not too hot down here in Texas and we're on a boat so that that helps with the whole going boating thing

the wind is very very light and we're just barely cross guiding our sails

if you can't float get a boat

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Balance the sails in light wind to avoid flopping
βœ“Turn the boat into the wind when tacking
βœ“Keep the companionway hatch open for air circulation

About our Bacon Score methodology
YouTube Video Description↓

We have spent a lot of time getting my Catalina 22 sailboat into ship-shape. So it is finally time for all of that hard work to pay off and get out on the water. After countless days of buffing the hull, repairing electrical gremlins, scrubbing the cabin, running new rigging, and a nearly tragic mast-dropping incident we finally go for a cruise. In this video we also use really cool words like Jib. I'm still not certain what a Jib is, but it would probably be a pretty awesome name for a dog. Stay tuned and you might learn a few things about sailing, or just understand a little more about those funny looking slow ski boats out on the water.
