Professional sailor and sports psychologist Roberto Ferrarese demonstrates techniques for tacking and gybing in varying wind conditions aboard the racing yacht Forest Camp 3.1:27 When tacking in 20 knots of wind, the helmsman should execute a single, smooth rudder movement to minimize drag while the crew shifts weight to the windward side to maintain boat speed.4:19 Coordination between the mainsail trimmer and jib trimmers remains critical to achieving the target Velocity Made Good (VMG) on the new tack.3:21 For gybing in light air, the crew utilizes a "roll gybe," using body weight to assist the turn and reduce reliance on the rudder.5:48 In heavy air—specifically gusts of 26 to 28 knots—the maneuver requires a conservative approach, with the helmsman prepared to bear away immediately after the boom crosses to prevent an accidental broach as the apparent wind shifts.8:00 Reefing the mainsail before gybing in high winds improves safety and control without significantly sacrificing speed.8:56
