Effective downwind sailing on an ILCA requires minimizing rudder use and relying on body weight, heel, and sail trim to steer the boat.▶ 0:52 In light air, sailors should keep the vang loose to allow the sail to twist and generate power.▶ 1:44 In heavy air, the vang must be tensioned to close the leech and prevent the boom from extending beyond 90 degrees, which maintains control and prevents the mast from pushing to windward.▶ 2:22 Sailing "by the lee"—a deep downwind angle where the wind hits the sail from the same side as the boom—increases stability by reducing the pendulum effect of the rig.▶ 2:44 To initiate turns, sailors should use heel to steer: heeling to windward causes the boat to bear away, while heeling to leeward causes it to luff.▶ 4:01 When a death roll begins, the correct recovery sequence is to pull the mainsheet in 30–60 cm to tension the rig, push the centerboard down 10–20 cm to create drag, and pull the tiller to bear away.▶ 6:00 Active, mobile body movement is essential to act as a shock absorber against waves.▶ 3:14
