    Hon går fint! Sneglade själv många år på en Open 30-40 men har ägnat mig åt annat i livet.

    Much more exciting on a symmetrical boat :)

    Great video! Thank you. So, do I understand correctly that when sailing broad reach and gybing, you need to center the boom first, tighten the old windward backstay, release the new leeward backstay and then only complete the gybe and release the boom to leeward? Is that the right sequence?

      To me it looks like center the traveler, pull in the mainsheet if necessary, gybe the boat, tighten the new windward runner, haul in the kite sheet, slack off on the old runner, then let the traveler off. Centering the boom does three things - reduces the forces when the main gybes, keeps the boom from hitting the old windward runner, and minimizes the blanketing of the kite by the main. Just remember to tighten both traveler control lines so the traveler car still stays centered even after the main gybes.

    Fuck me! Really impressive. I guess the consequences of even a small mistake would be catastrophic.

    I thought class 40s were gybing inside? Pros and Cons? Will you do also an inside gybe video?

    can u release the backstay before agybe to make the operation easier can the mast hold? if yes up to what wind?

      I would not. Even in a light wind, the boom can move really fast and create enough momentum to break something or seriously strain the rest of the rigging. If you have another crew member, you can accelerate the process of moving the load off the lazy backstay. You may be able to do this alone if the bock system for the backstays has low enough friction.

    I find it easier to set the main on the new tack and sailing at 130 degrees so the gennaker is in the lee of the main so sheet on easier . What are your thoughts ?

    Hi. Just looking at purchasing the Pogo 40 S2. How do find the upwind performance please ? A friend is trying to talk me out of it - saying it will be left behind ina race such as Sydney Hobart. Many thanks Chris - Australia

    How often is all that rigging done? I don't have a clue about sailing but that sure looked like a bit of work.

      Every time you want to gybe, which in simple terms means every time you need to change the direction of the boat in relation to the wind, bringing the wind from one side, to the back of the boat and then to the other side.

    how did you manage to not get pushed down after the main flips over but is still trimmed tight? I have to quickly release the main once it flips over. thanks

      It's twin rudders and she's really strong on keeping her course. So in general, never a problem with broaching after gybe

      You never touch the helm on a class 40, facing aft is a personal preference no big deal because you don’t have to focus on the course.
