![Learn 5 KNOTS for Sailing [Capable Cruising Guides]](/img/1.gif)
Best sailing instruction yet. To the point, laid back, no fluff, just teaching... Great.... do more like this please...
Thanks! I sold the boat, but I appreciate that! I hope it helps people for many years to come. When I was learning I watched videos like this and my wife even took notes.
why did you do that? No interest anymore?@@AdventuresInParadise
Dude… More videos like this, please!! I think you may have found your niche in YT sailing channels. A few folks have done these videos but this is one of the few of even those that I found to be truly instructional. Very well done!
Yes! I agree
The first RUclips video that I have seen that gave a clear description of reefing a sail.
I am a sailor and have to say this is right to the point thanks
Thanks mate. Exactly what I was looking for.
Unbelievably good! I’ve been watching sailing videos for 8 years. This is one of the best. Thank you so much!!!
Wow, thanks! We really appreciate it!
This video popped up for vids that I might like, I loved it. Been learning how to sail and your explanation was spot on. Learned more in 26 min about sails than in any vid I've seen. Subscribed and going to start at your beginning to enjoy your sailing adventures. Thank you.
Thanks!
I got my Day Skipper last year and have to say this video is perhaps the best I’ve seen at summarizing the basics (leaps and bounds ahead of what I paid for). Well done and thank you - a great refresher.
Wow thanks!!
Wow, great job. I'll be watching this video over and over. The tiny boat on the upper left with wind direction is very helpful. And Susie, you are a prize, Thank you for your help!!!
Very educational. Thanks for all the hard work both of you did while filming as well as editing all the components to put this together.
와우~ 요트가 무서워서 시도조차 못했습니다. 그런데, 당신의 유튜브를 보고 자신감을 가질 수 있을 것 같아요..
정말 자세한 설명에 정말 감사드립니다.
Appreciate you. Thanks for your time 😊
Thanks, very encouraging to those of us that feel a bit overwhelmed at trying sailing.
Very good explanation. I like that this video covers more points than other similar "how to sail" videos. Additionally, it is easy to see how the lines are arranged so for someone like me who is installing all of the running riggings for the first time, can do it much more quickly. Thanks!!
Thank you so much for this video
Excellent Demo. Thank you👍👍👍👍👍
Loved this video. Not all of us can go sailing day in and day out like Delos or Zatara. You offer some great refresher and beginning info for what is pro bob lee the typical sailor. Great job!
Man that was a great video with a lot of info laid out in simple terms. I learned a ton. Much appreciated.
Great! Thank you and Happy New Year from Brazil!
This is an awesome instructional video. Best I have seen as it shows not only what to do but how each change affects the yacht. As a newbie to sailing, I needed this and have saved it for future reference. Thank you so much!
Thanks a lot guys, this video is by far the must easy to understand in all the internett. The pic in picture at the top was a great idea. Please do more videos like this one ( for ex. a video about how to control the boom when jibbing) . All the best from Norway.
Ok, thanks. I have some ideas!
I have been intrigued by sailing for years but don’t have opportunity to sail (other than a sunfish) and watch whatever lesson type you tube videos I can. Don’t know how I missed your channel but this video was excellent, prob best I have seen that walks someone through the various scenarios
Thank you
Thanks!
I agree with southern paths you nailed this thank you
Thorough and clear explanation with a live demo. Please keep more contents like this coming 😊
Nice job!
(and you only referred to the bow area as the front once - that I caught!😊)
The section on reefing was well done.
Just what I needed- thank you 🙏
Hello! My partner sent me a link to this video because he thought it would be helpful. I found it so helpful, I immediately subscribed. We are buying a 65ft sailboat and plan to travel the world. I've never sailed a boat before but, luckily, my partner is very experienced and will be teaching me. In the meantime, while our boat is still aground, I will be watching this video over and over. I will also be looking at all your other videos. Thank you for the very helpful and useful information!
Thanks! Wow, 65 feet, that's a big boat!
@@AdventuresInParadise It is, but we wanted a lot of space and it's the one he fell in love with. We're in Europe and plan to take it up to Scandinavia before going off to see the rest of the world. When necessary, we'll take on a couple extra crew.
Wow, have a great time, it will be epic! @@charmainejarrett3238
@@AdventuresInParadise Thank you!!
Nice presentation
Hands down, thos is the best tutorial without all the lingo like a robot (ASA) and using both the correct and I'VE NEVER SAILED BEFORE lingo. It's great for 1st timers, refresher, or someone that hasn't sailed in 10 years!! THANK YOU FOR THIS. I'LL BE PASSING THIS ALONG!! 🙏❤️🇺🇸⛵️👣👍
Thanks!
You did great at explaining concepts that some people like to keep somewhat complicated.
My 1st video of yours and I've just subscribed!
Thanks Mate! Excellent video!
Long term subscriber first time commenter. This was a great video and very well done. I am looking forward to see what will be your next boat!
Thank you. And thanks for finally commenting!
More of this Dude please
This is a fantastic video and I hope you do more like it, a la gybing/jibing, heaving to, adjusting sail shape for different conditions, etc. Your diagrams and explanations were far and away better than most so-called sailing how-to videos.
PS When I saw Suzie (Susy?) at 14:00 in her sailor outfit (including hat!) I burst out laughing and had to replay that portion to actually hear what you said. She's such a great sport to be willing to be the star of these videos with you!😂
LOL, thanks for that! Yes, Susy is amazing!
Great video, good sound instruction with no nonsense chat and long winded intro... pardon the pun.
Looks like the vocabulary police won't be called today lol
Good instruction and good sound!
I had a totally inept sailing instructor - myself! Wish I had seen this video years ago. Well done.
This was really good!
Great intro to the terms!
Very nice. Thank you for your effort ,I just bought a eagle/tramp trimaran which I’m going to try and learn how to sail this summer.
I like the way you explain things, so I'm a subbie now. lol
I have been reading, just reading up on sailing for about 8 years now, but I recently went down to a marina to just see first hand and sure enough, within 10 minutes, I was onboard with a nice couple on their 30 foot O'Day. We have become friends, he just upgraded to a newer 34 foot O'Day and explained to me that until the 30 footer gets sold, I can come down to the marina and sail it everyday if I want....woo hoo.
I'm writing my pleasure craft license tomorrow, and I'm learning as much as I can about navigation along my coastline of Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada...but in reality, I probably won't sail out of the harbour until someone tells me I have gained enough helm time.
We do have a huge harbour here in Halifax, it's something like the third deepest no ice harbour in North America, ( I won't put the deed to the ranch on that comment)...just sayin'
One of my concerns, only because I'm not educated int his yet is ... FOG, there is a lot of fog on this East Coast and this 30 footer has no electronics to guide me, so I will have to learn how to read the weather so I don't get caught out there with no visibility.
Great story! The best way to avoid trouble is not to be in the fog at all... it's scary. At least have AIS and don't be where larger ships would be. It's not worth it. We've been in fog twice and I would say we just got lucky but it's not worth it.
Excellent thank you! 👍🏻⛵️👏🏻
Great video, thanks🎉😮😊
Great video ! we are about to raise the sails on our little Beneteau Evasion 25 for the first time in the next week or so when we have light winds in Arzal France.. I have only ever been crew on yachts and my wife has never experienced turning the engine off and the peace of sailing..! in the UK we had a motor cruiser for many years, we now live in France and we have finally agreed to learn to sail. luckily Arzal is a dammed river so we dont have to worry about the tide much, the aim is to just getting our girlie moving forward under sail and your video was a great recap on how this is achieved.. lol Thank You very much. Best wishes and hope you have a great 2024
This is good stuff, thank you
Great video thank you
Excellent video. I like the graphics, which reminds the audience what you want to do instead of guessing.
thank that was very inspiring tort me a lot thanks
Great vid. Even though I know the basics it was still a joy to watch. Entertaining and informative. I like the little boat with the wind it really helps to be able to visualize the boats angle to the wind as your talking about it.
Nice work … best How To Sail snapshot I have seen.
Good lesson, thanks!
Amazing video!
For gybing, I typically take my main back to center, perform the gybe and then let it back out again. Only time that gets hairy is during high winds, where I might opt to tack instead and head back down. Good primer, bookmarked for my novice sailing friends who want to learn!!!!
Thanks and I will try to bring the main to center and then gybe. I will usually bring in the main as the boat turns and then let it back out as I got through the turn, but that only works because my wife is handling the genoa. If I was alone I could not do that.
Nicely explained Jason Just one mishap your diagram for the whisker pole should have been on the genoa not the main.
Did I do that? LOL... whoops.. my mistake was that I connected the sail graphic to the mast instead of the bow... too late now... only watched it so many times I never want to see it again LOL Thanks for seeing that!
This was an incredible video. It seems like operating a sailboat is so much work. I wish you would have talked more about how far you need to tack
Thank you for explaining the basics so thoroughly. New sub. You deserve a lot more subs. Very informative and well delivered. Thank you.
Very interesting, looks like fun
Grest video Jason thanks as always
Thanks Dave
Good work!
Good information thank you
Great video
Chef Phil here again.
Ok, this was a great video Jason and Susy!
I'm a novice and have been following you guys for a few months now. The only thing I've ever sailed myself was on sunfish back when I was in the Boy Scouts many years ago on a freshwater lake. I would love to buy a sailboat and learn how to sail with my wife. As I explained before we're from Pennsylvania and have been thinking about possibly moving down to Florida. You guys are a great team working together and made a very, concise, helpful and easy to understand video for beginners. I was a little concerned because I'm 53 and was thinking I was, perhaps, a bit old to do this but I was wrong. This looks like great fun and you just advanced my knowledge tenfold! Your video makes me want to sail even more! Thanks again for all the careful thought and time you put into this video. Appreciated you teaching all the proper terms and names concerning the different parts of the boat and equipment. I've saved it so I can watch it many times.
Take care and God bless!
Thanks... and remember, we never sailed before we got Knot Enough, the Catalina 22 just a few years ago.
@@AdventuresInParadise I didn't know this because I'm fairly new to your channel Jason. I haven't gone back and watched all your other videos but I do remember seeing a couple featuring your other boat. I thought that you and your wife had sailed a little before that.
My wife and I are coming back to the USA next week from the Philippines. Been here almost 3 years now all through the covid mess. Looking forward to getting settled, get back to my catering business and hopefully taking a sailing course next spring/summer. Since we live in PA it's gonna be a little cold now lol and my wife is from the Philippines so she'll have to get over the shock of cold weather 😂. That's three reasons to possibly make the move to Florida: boating almost all year, warmer weather and a great governor/red state! 👍👍
Excellent.
Nice video
Wow! Congratulations on a great video.
My wife and I sold our powerboat and are in the process of purchasing a sailboat.
We took a two day sailing course in Sarasota (not at the Sailing Squadron unfortunately). We learned more from watching your video than we did over the entire weekend. You have simplified it and calmly presented the information.
Thank you for your commitment to developing this channel.
All the best…
Wow, thanks! Have you seen our "Powerboat VS Sailboat" video?
@@AdventuresInParadise Yes we have, thx. Your videos are very intersting and relevant to how we are changing our hobby as well. We will keep watching.
very clear instructions... thank you for the video!!
thank you!!!!! definitely want to see more of style video, Ya'll do a great job!!!
Thank you
Interesting
Excellent video! Thanks so much for letting us join you and teaching us along the way. Your videos have become one of my simple pleasures. Of all of my subscriptions, your channel is by far my favorite! Happy Fall sailing! ⛵️🍂⚓️🍁
Thanks!
Thank you for this video. I've been watching beginner sailing videos for a while, and only sailed once on a nice sailboat, but this video was much informative to get a good idea about sailing. Question is the jib always smaller? Or does it have a special location on the boat? Thank you again for your video. Love and Light.
Very informative & correct video !
It's a pleasure to see you working together.
Fair winds and keep your videos coming.
Regards from Marco, a long time follower from The Netherlands.
Thanks Marco!
This is great! I sailed Topaz M's so 20+ foot boat seems daunting but this cleared up what all the lines are for and the proper names. And once you know what it's called it becomes a lot easier to look it up :)
great video thanks! I'm not a sailor but I am interested in taking it up as a hobby. I've recently found your channel and I'm really enjoying the videos you've done. Easy to watch & very informative!
Thanks!
This is been very helpful I want to thank you personally for doing that I hope you have other videos that come out showing other things that people can learn anchoring Motoring docking lot of people want to know things
Ok, I'll think about that, thanks. I think I'm good at docking but it's scary as hell in a sailboat compared to the power boat! I liken it to driving a car on ice.
@@AdventuresInParadise you can always do Mooring balls single anchor double anchor
I dunno Jason... You may have surpassed Josh Posts learn to sail video... Or at least a great companion video. Well done as always.
Thanks, I put a lot of thought into it and wrote a script and made all the graphics. Susy and I watched Josh Post’s version before we bought our first sailboat. I like to think I could help somebody else learn now. Thanks for the comment!
Thanks for an excellent teaching video and learning experience. You did a great job and it is obvious you put a lot of work into this lesson. Is Susie grading your presentation? LOL 😃
Very informative video! And a sexy fist mate. 😊
seems easy but bet it is a lot of work and constantly monitoring the wind, etc. But basically this would work for any size monohull? would it be the same for a cat?
Good vid! However bringing the main to the other to sail wing on wing side is like an "accidental jib". It is "safer" to bring the Genoa on the other side especially when you don't jib. Normally is down wind the fastest course ( wing on wing offers the biggest sail area to the wind) for a boat and less prone to get seasick since the wind and the waves come behind you and not from the side. Please keep up you great work!
Thanks. A tail wind is my least favorite since the boat lacks stability and tends to wander down waves. Down wind is the worst point of sail from a sea sickness point of view (for us). There have been exceptions to this, like on very calm down wind days.
On your diagram it looks like to me that your wisker
pole id conected to your mainsail nor the genoa
Yes, it's wrong on the diagram.

the boat HEELS or is HEELING, not Healing....
Have you ever watched the TV Series: Adventures In Paradise?
Yes, I watched some of it on RUclips.
hey @Adventures In Paradise I sent you a DM on your instagram probably went to spam or something. Hope to hear back from ya =)
Great educational video! Loved this one so much, I have saved it to view and re-view many times. Thanks to both of you and keep up the good work!
Thanks!
