Qué cubre este vídeo
Nick demonstrates a single-handed tacking technique on a Bavaria 46 using the autopilot’s wind-hold feature.0:08 Instead of manually steering through the maneuver, the operator sets the autopilot to wind-hold mode at a 50-degree angle.0:37 By accessing the menu and selecting the tack function, the system automatically steers the vessel through the wind to the corresponding 50-degree angle on the opposite tack.0:43 During the transition, the operator manages the jib sheet manually to ensure the sail fills correctly as the boat gathers speed on the new heading.0:55 This automated process allows the helmsman to focus entirely on sail trim and sheet handling while the autopilot maintains the desired wind angle throughout the turn. Utilizing the wind-hold function simplifies the coordination required for solo sailing by removing the need to steer the helm while simultaneously managing lines.
