Singlehanded Gybe, Round Up, Spinnaker wrap and unwrap

11.07.2012
Singlehanded Gybe, Round Up, Spinnaker wrap and unwrap- In the past, while pulling wrapped spinnaker down, the spinnaker got trapped under the bow of the boat. I had to pull it under the bow by releasing one of the sheets. Although the spinnaker did not tear, it seemed that it could very likely be damaged, and this took too much time and energy on the bow. This video shows an alternate way to resolve the wrap by gybing to the opposite tack from which the wrap occurred. The wrapping force then serves as an unwrapping force, and the spinnaker can be unwrapped and doused.
