Thanks for the info Paul. I'm going hanked on after a few years of using a furler. I never liked the way my Typhoon pointed using the CDI furler system and the harken gear is just way too expensive and complicated to install on my own. Keep it simple - go hanked on with a jib downhaul. Thanks again!
Do you put a sail cover over the main when its down?..if so, is it eash with the lazy jacks?...thank you... great video!
Yes. I have a sail cover that has maybe five or six ties under the boom. That way I can raise the boom with the lazy jack halyard and have head room in the cockpit. I also have a boom tent with two fiberglass rods that spread it out from side to side. It ties under the boom forward and aft and has four corner ties that attach to the cabin hand rails and cockpit cleats.
3:41 I shouted "Pamlico Sound! One of the great inland seas of the world!"
really good explanation
Inspiring video.
Thanks for watching!
Thank-you for making and sharing this video. Quite good.
I'm a new sailor and new SJ21 MK2 owner down in Sanford. Any chance I can contact you for some friendly guidance? Or will you recommend a reliable marina/boat works with knowledge of my boat?
Sure! 919-259-3268 Paul
I will do this for sure. It is not pleasant at all (and risky) to do this manually when you have waves
It changes everything.

Greetings from Uruguay! Loved the video, I want to start doing this self steering. One question, do you have some sort of wind speed limit? Can gusts affect the setup? If you ca provide an idea in knots would be great. Good winds! 🍻
Yes!! As long as the wind direction doesn’t change, she will keep sailing through a gust. I use the magnus hitch to attach to a sheet. Some people like to mount two pairs of jam cleats under the tiller handle in opposing directions for quick adjustments. I have a shorter video about 5-10 minutes long for explanation of the hardware. Look for the “Quick How To: Upwind Setup”video. Best of luck! Peace
Also, works well with reefed sails in high wind too. It is good to have a jib from a smaller sized boat for sailing downwind in higher winds. But you can also lower your main and just use a working jib.
I could see the down wind setting become more even if you put the rolling hitch lower to the deck so the jib luffing didn't make it move so much.
There's a cape dory typhoon listed for sale right now and I can't get the seller to respond at all! So sad. great boats.
Hi Pauli, love what you're doing. I am starting to experiment with this as well and looking to set it up. Can you tell what good diameter size is for the surgical tubing?
3/8” surgical tubing
Okracoke is one of my dream destinations for sailing, but I've only ever gotten there from the ferry. It reminds me of the Keys back before they got super built up.
CLEAN
Thanks for the video. I learn something new. I'm interested in getting into sailing. A lot more to it than just basics. I like the morehead to ocrakoke area too.
How many times did you practice this 😅
ruclips.net/video/nZjO_HSMX2w/видео.html
Clever song. And good work on the uke.
Outstanding video! Your best yet. A lot of variety in it, including some tension and drama. Even some fear because of the weather. Followed up by pleasant times on Ocracoke. So superb sailing and film making. You are the trailer sailer extraordinaire! The 21-footer looks like it would be a lot more of a challenge and a lot more fun than a forty footer would on the Pamlico.
Thanks Buddy!
You stopped in Washington on your way home. Thanks for the video I enjoyed it.
do you ever go from the end of the boom? so when you tack you have to put the line on the other sides jib sheet? and reverse the tiller lines? is this the way to go for off shore? thank you
I never attach a sheet-to-tiller line to the end of the boom. That can be too difficult to reach. This video is about downwind setup. We attach to the jib. My video on the upwind set up for self-steering attaches to the mainsheet but never the boom.
Can’t get the final loop down, tips?
Remember there is no reversing direction for the opposite horn. It is the same over hand throw. Envision the loop laying one inch to the right of the right horn. Good Luck!
i just bought a Laguna 22 that seems to have some variation of this installed on it.. i havent figured it out yet , havent stepped the mast yet even, next week i hope... anyways noticed lots of extra lines on the boom and then noticed the 2 blocks on the spreaders and extra lines running down with the halyards, there are also 4? stainless rings, i assume it will make sense when i get around to splashing the boat
Yeah. Sounds like a lazy jack rig. I just use bowline loops instead of stainless rings. They weren’t simple enough for me. Hehe. Good Luck with the Laguna. Sounds like an interesting boat! I’d like to see photos.
I'm setting up a Ness Yole for dinghy cruising in the Belhaven area. Looking to speak with someone for guidance. Would you be available?
Sure, let’s chat here. I am currently in Croatia. You may have noticed that my friend, Chris sailed his 16’ Wayfarer across the Pamlico to Ocracoke. It’s doable. You need to be brave, choose your weather wisely, know how to heave to and be prepared to reef your sail.
@@adventuresofsailorpauli1543 Thanks for the reply: My boat is approx 17' has relatively low freeboard. Great for rowing. single sail balanced lug. I'm practicing reefing solo and modifying it for ease. Not sure how to heave to a balanced lug. Do you think anchoring is an option for sudden squalls if I can't make shore? My first goal is Bath to Belhaven by November. Haven't made it much past the entrance to the creek at River Forest Manor. Checking boat for soundness and making minor mods as I go.
Thanks. I don't have stanchions I was looking for a way to run my downhaul without it being a trip line up front. I'll run another block to the side on the pulpit then run back on the deck. I may need another cam cleat down on deck instead of on the cabin top
Sure. Run the lines through blocks along the toe rail. I wouldn’t be too worried about tripping on the line. However, my flush deck is very flat, maybe your deck is more contoured. When using a jib downhaul, you often need to operate both lines at the same like a roller furling system. So that is another thing to consider. I have my boat rigged up so that I never have to go up on deck. I also run a jackline from the bow to stern to attach harnesses to. I anchor from the cockpit as well. I think that a horned cleat is a great option as well. You can tie a block to it or your dingy painter when boarding. Good luck!
I think I’m going to try this at our local dock great tutorial!
This is really cool. Great job.
great advice - safety first!
Thankfully frm Bangkok
Great 👍
Good job. Whats that boat weight?
1450 lbs
Looks strong enough. But I'm a belt and suspenders type of guy. Stands under anything lifted or jacked up. Like you already mentioned.
Glad to see your back out on the water.
Nice camera work, I like the selfie stick shots, and the chest harness rig. Classic trip!
@27:29 A lil eye candy on deck !!
Wow that young kid sure has a voice
Thanks. She has an incredible voice. She sings all the time. Thanks for watching!
First lesson in owning a boat. Look cool at the dock. Ordering a cleat now so I can practice at home.
"Absolutely gorgeous day" is an understatement. 😉😁
Totally!
Having trouble envisioning this from the boat side.
You know, come to think about it I never tie the boat to a dock from the boat. I usually hop out onto the dock holding the bow and stern docklines and then tie them. Check out my youtube short section. There’s more there.
mmm pointless mate by the time you have done you first overhand loop the cleet would be tied off by now...
Oh, well you should see my other videos where all the trolls were mad cause I didn’t give them a proper tutorial! This is how I do it all the time now. Thanks for watching!
Yeah but it looks cool as shit
We called it the Dreaded Neuse. Seemed that every time we left Oriental and crossed to Adam’s Creek, headed for Beaufort, the waves were on the beam with winds blowing in from the sound. Probably not as bad in a sailboat but our 34’ trawler was not a very comfortable ride unless we zigzagged across to take the chop at a 45* angle.
I'm wondering is there ever need to these skills, if you arrive to the pier by boat and throw the rope around the hitch, isn't it better to tie it to boat side if you have both rope ends in your hands
Yes. I have two dock lines on my boat: bow and stern. I pull the boat off the trailer walking down the dock with the boat. In lasso cleat hitches on two cleats one at a time, rather than bending down and tying them. And it’s easy. Then when I sail back to the dock, I hop out onto the dock and lasso two cleat hitches again. Then I fetch the truck leaving the boat at the dock. Yeah. I do this every time now. Just because I can.
This dudes a legend in his own mind
For my next trick, I will make my pet troll disappear.
@@adventuresofsailorpauli1543 hahaha, good luck cuz! if your "next trick" takes nearly as long as your "last trick" we could be here a loooooooooong time haha
learn the basics first, before teaching, friend.
Ouch! Savage
The main issue I see here is that this is not in fact a correct hitch, the first loop around the horn should be the opposite direction. For a better lesson, check out Maryland School of sailing videos on hitch knot; Capt Tom Tursi will teach you right!
Are you able to lift it high enough to get the CB down completely verticle? Or, nearly so such that a shallow trench would then allow for a complete down position? I'm wondering if 10 foot legs are enough for a complete lift.
Yes. Enough room for centerboard.
You aren't "the man," Sailor Pauli. You are "The Dude."
Actually, I was the Big Lebowski in a mobility scooter in the Big Lebowski musical in Carrboro. 2012
I have read that the swing keel in the San Juan 21 is unusual in that it is made primarily of fiberglass and it has lead weights inside of it in the lower region of the swing keel. Most trailer sailers have cast iron swing keels which rust badly. Lead has two advantages. It is more dense than iron and it doesn't rust. Can you confirm this?
Maybe with some research on the FB san juan 21 page
I am impressed with the metalwork involved with this. Did you do all the welding, cutting, and fabricating? Do you have a background in this sort of work, or just figured it all out as a hobbyist? Either way, you would need a good place to work, a good power saw of some sort, and a stick or mig welder. Again, I am impressed. Well designed and well fitted. Just looking at the video the critical thing seems to be to keep the load well balanced on all four supports. If things ever got out of balance you might get in trouble. One potential weakness I see is the attachment to the ground. I think you need concrete footings with anchor bolts to better resist in weight shift at the ground level. I would not trust the big nails in packed clay. I have a few dinghies in the 500 to 600 lb range. I built a similar structure out of treated four-by-fours with just two chain hoists to lift my boats off their trailers. I just sunk the four-by-four posts a couple feet into really solid ground. What I've got would not support your boat. I'm looking around for a good San Juan 21.
Dads are not given near the respect we deserve.
Cool lift. I would suggest two sturdy guy lines on each corner going out 15 to 20 feet, secured to either heavy stakes or trees. I would be concerned about the affects of windage especially with a boat on the lift.
that is great to lift it but you need to place a cradle or support underneath it to work on it. Please visit a boat yard to see what is required. observe some safety standards
that's true. I said it in the video.
