Qué cubre este vídeo

To deploy the jib on Libra, the crew first falls off the wind by 10 degrees to induce a slight heel and create pressure on the rig.Watch One person manages the blue and white furling line at the clutch, maintaining constant tension to prevent the line from bird-nesting or tangling inside the furling drum.0:17 A second crew member operates the winch to assist in pulling the sail out, while a third person tails the line.0:56 The team uses the boat’s movement and wind pressure to pull the slack from the furling line before transitioning to a close-hauled point of sail.0:49 Once the jib is fully deployed, the crew adjusts the sail trim to match the intended route.1:15 Maintaining tension on the furling line during deployment prevents mechanical jams and ensures the sail unfurls smoothly without tangling in the drum.0:24
