Spinnaker chapter - illustrations are easier to understand than written explanations on this topic.

Comprehensive, covers everything that advanced sail trim should include. Th e only thing after this course is to go on water and practice.

Initially I was disapointed but then I realised it is a "clinic" and builds on the intro sail trim course. As I've done a fair bit of bowman duties on a racing yacht I knew a lot of it already. However the course made it very clear to me as to why my amateur racing experince was usually frustrating due to poor performance most of the time! Our perfomance upwind and to a lesser extent under spinnaker was never as good as when we had a professional skipper on the boat. The clinic explains why and makes me realise we only ever did about 50% of the trimming at best outlined in the clinic. The spinnaker section of the clinic in particular was very challenging to me as we never used the tweaker or really understood proper positioning of the sail via the sheet on the different angles! Hower we did get the pole horizontal position correct but never considered the vertical positioning. I cannot wait to try these "additional" trimming considerations on my own small crusing yacht and maybe on the racer as well! Thank you so much for opening my eyes to this whole new world!

I love the intuitive way the courses have been created. The fact that the material is available to view again later is very useful as a refresher when it's been a while since the course was taken. The explanations on the test as to why you got an answer wrong is very helpful in correcting your understandings.
