Nova Loman, a solo sailor, experiences a headsail furler jam while navigating the Baltic Sea.▶ 5:58 After the furler fails to retract the sail, she manually wraps the remaining headsail, sets a secondary headsail, and tacks to a nearby anchorage.▶ 6:35 Upon arrival, she anchors in three meters of water, noting that the anchor fails to set firmly in the bottom, which she attributes to the presence of plants and mud.▶ 9:53 She subsequently climbs the mast to inspect the furler mechanism, specifically checking the halyard angle and the shackle configuration, but finds no obvious mechanical failure.▶ 12:47 After confirming the system is functional, she decides to remain at her current anchorage for the Midsummer holiday rather than relocating to a potentially shallower spot with uncertain holding.▶ 17:21 She relies on the weight of her chain and an anchor alarm to monitor her position during the calm weather.▶ 10:33
