Very good video and well explained. Have you not wanted to lead your mainsail lines back to the cockpit?. I see you already have rope clutches and a deck line organiser fitted.
They used to be run back to the cockpit but I removed them. I figure you’ve got to go to the mast to reef anyway so going forward to raise the main isn't so bad. Also I have to help the main up past my lazy jacks which can't be done from the cockpit.
The word I use is ‘fairway’ for the waterway leading to your slip I never solo sail so we don’t use signals when turning into the larger waterway; however, if you want to blow your horn, it’s one for turning to starboard and two to turn to port. No harm in signalling especially if you are worried about traffic in the marina. You are doing my great :)and I look forward to your videos
Good to see you back. I sold my boat. Too many hurricanes here. I like this style of video.
Oh no! Are you in Florida? Keep your head down.
That was a better tack than I usually do.
I'm getting a bit more confident. Thanks for leaving a comment.

nice video...looks like you're ready for longer passages to me
thanks, buddy. ya gotta fake it till ya make it ;)
This was a satisfying video. Subbing starting at the beginning.
Nice boat. Even as is, that is a “get out of dodge” option.

Major progress in skill and confidence compared to your first sailing videos! Nice work.
Thank you! I'll make it to Hawaii one day.
Hi Edward! Looking good!

@mcjordan76 thanks Mike! Currently driving all dad's stuff across the country! Almost there!

Recently discovered your channel, great solo sailing content keep it up!
@@casper905 thank you!
Nice! Made a similar video on my channel. I love solo sailing on Corpus Christi bay here in Texas. Always lots of wind 😊. Nice boat!
@ricflores8692 thanks! I'll check out your channel.
Glad you are back! Yesterday I did my first solo sail on the sea, also with the help of R2D2
I wouldn't get very far without R2. How'd your solo sail go?
Very good! ruclips.net/video/tJuYewDd90Q/видео.htmlsi=zI4bOykJnZ00G9No
Just found your channel. Nice boat, looks set up well. You gonna do some cruising with her?
That's the plan! I have lots of learning to do 😂
Good job reefing beforehand 🎉 we have the same R2-D2 😂. Good vid.👍
Thanks! Reef early. Reef often... or just keep it reefed

Thank you so much! Great advice on the horn. Nobody had ever explained it to me before.
