Detail,detail, detail, just the job to absorb the complexity of sail balancing. The best tutorial I have seen so far. Please continue with more instructional videos, thanks!
Thanks so much, next one is in the pipeline
I concur
Very informative, love it
This is probably the best instructional video for sail trim I have seen. The animations give so much clarity to go along with your explanations. I have no idea how much time it took you to create this, but my thanks to you for providing it. Liked and subscribed. Obviously, I would love a part 2!
fantastic feedback, very grateful thank you. Am working on part 2 right now, as you guessed, takes a while to put together
These are amazing videos! I have been watching your videos for about a week now and just purchased my first sailboat last night! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience! I don't know anyone who sails and your videos are going to be what helps me get on the water!
That's so amazing, thanks so much... Please..!!! keep us updated on your progress and congratulations, now the fun begins 😀😀
@@searchingforcoconuts2248 please keep putting these videos out! They are so incredibly helpful!
Best educational video I’ve seen on this concept.
amazing feedback, thanks so much
Absolutely love your tutorials. Thank you
much appreciated , thank you
Great animations and explanation. Please make a part 2. Thank you.
Thank you so much for always producing high quality videos that are concise and very well presented. I appreciate the time and effort you put into your very instructional videos. You are greatly appreciated.
This was very easy to understand and follow, especially with the 3D models. I’ll try these tricks out this season. Thank you 🙏
fantastic feedback, thanks so much. Let us know how the season goes...
Great instructional video, please keep it coming
thank you so much, yes, part #2 in the works
Love your videos. That ages old FAA explanation of "lift" with the low and high pressure... well... that has been abandoned a long while ago. It is all about the deflection of air mass on the leeward side by the airfoil having a counter reaction. Anyways... I love your vides. I am here for sailing stuff so please keep going.
I really like your videos. A lot of effort has been put into them, and it shows.
thanks for watching and posting such great comments, hugely appreciated
Fantastic! Yes please continue! This is the exact type of content I've been looking for! Great job! :D
legendary comments, thanks so much... keep an eye for docking in the next few days
These videos are incredibly well put together. Please keep making them
will do, thanks for watching and sending positive vibes
Always love these tutorials and videos... Clear and concise descriptions and visualisations.
So great to hear thank you
Your videos are super cool! They really help understand the different forces involved. It must’ve been a lot of work doing all the 3-D animation, but be sure it is appreciated around the world! Thank you very much!!!
comments like these make it all worthwhile, thank you for taking the time to post this, much appreciated
Very helpful and clear, great tutorial.
amazing, thanks so much
Bring it on.
yeah..!! thanks for watching
Loved the animation! Way way better then a class room demonstration. Thank you for spending the time to create this. Never seen such a in depth but simple explanation!

These tutorials are the slickest I've ever seen, very professional but so easy to watch
whoaaa, such nice comments, thanks so much, greatly appreciated
The brilliant explanations helped me understand some "hidden" sailing issues. Thanks!

thanks so much
Very good thank you.
So clear !!!!
Forever grateful thank you
Great job!
thanks so much, part 2 will be released this weekend
Very good. Suggestions: the animation should show more than one line of the wind streaming on each side of the sails. Also, the forces under water are hydrodynamic, rather than aerodynamic.
awesome suggestions, thanks so much, and thanks for watching
Valeu!
yeah!!! what a legend, thanks so much
Fantastic learning tutorials,thank you ,i really enjoyed the ones a few years ago and these are the next level of training to understand
as always, thanks for your participation. My laptop is sitting in a shop in Sumatra so I'm hoping to get busy again soon
@@searchingforcoconuts2248 hope the laptop get well soon😥,i know we are so depenant on our portable electronics ,can only imagine the dificulty it must be to repair while out on the water
@@searchingforcoconuts2248 and then there is that depreciating Rand to what ever currency is stronger out there suppose that could be a great episode theme how to survive on the ZAR conversion while traveling the world on a yacht
For those who wish to contribute to help us keep our journey going and the videos coming, here is our Patreon link, it is very much appreciated!!!! www.patreon.com/searchingforcoconuts
thx❤❤❤
great comments, thanks so much
can you make a video on safety of boats with back ends open like the bigger yachts have and also one on chart navigation
Hi, always good to hear from you... Here is the link to part 1 of basic navigation... will look into safety on open stern sailboats, maybe one for the future. Thanks again...
More info = better
😀
😄
Part 2 please
you got it... ruclips.net/video/x6XOKA_DkOw/видео.html
Awesome. Very informative. I love all the info and the animations are super helpful. Also, I always thought it was called "keeling" or "off keel" if the boat is leaning to one side. Is that just the american way of saying it? Or is heeling just the austrailian way of saying it? Not sure. haha. I'm just learning. Thank you!!!! Would love to see part two!
thanks for watching and posting such great comments... I think keeling might be an American term.... let me know
@@searchingforcoconuts2248 it looks like heeling is the same in american, i was thinking of the keel - i think.
@@trinitywave thanks for checking and getting back to us
How do you trim the sails to reduce lee or weather helm? I get the mechanics but not how to apply them.
quickest way is to ease out mainsheet, adjust traveller.... If you are still fighting weather helm, it might be time to reef
These vids are great!
The renderings could be lightened a little. Kinda' dark.
But great! Keep at it.
Thanks so much, will work on lighting
Is there a software like a sailing simulator that you are using for these videos? I would love to experiment with different settings like that
you could try www.esailyachtsimulator.com/ I have not used it in a while but they were always adding new features, great fun
ENJOYED YOUR VIDEO - KEWP 'EM COMING!
I would only offer one minor-but-important correcrion for you to consider...
@1:14 you show an airfoil at a zero (0 deg) Angle of Attack and assert that at this angle (basically sailing DIRECTLY into the wind) "... the sail STALLS..."
This is NOT accurate.
At a zero Angle of Attack the wing the sail DOESN'T stall, in fact it orovide a LOT of "Sideways" lift :-O....
What's important to understand is that NOT EVEN THE TINIEST COMPONENT OF THIS "LIFT" IS IN THE "FORWARD" DIRECTION, making it essentially "USELESS LIFT" :-(.
Instead all thos sideways lift is PERPENDICULAR to the Direction of Travel, again - USELESS.
Your other sceanrio where the Angle of Attack is too HIGH , and the sail stalls IS accurate.
KEEP UPNTHE GREAT WORK!
You've earned another subscriber!..

Great info and advice, thanks for contributing 👍
It's not very easy to understand he's making it a lot more complicated with unclear and overly confusing graphics as well
thank you, your comments are noted
I messaged you on Insta about these videos :)
just got it thanks...
