7. TACK The sailing boat is turned by passing the bow of the boat through the wind. CREW COMMANDS: Skipper: “ready to tack” The crew check the sheets, secures the new working jib sheet and maintains tension on but uncleats the current working sheet Crew: “ready” Skipper: “Tacking” The bow passes through the wind, as jib starts to luff, the leeward sheet is released and new working sheet is trimmed. The mainsail and boom will slowly switch sides as the boat turns. At the same time the crew have to move to the other side of the boat to keep the boat balanced. At the end of the turn the trim of the mainsail may need to be adjusted. 1.STARBOARD TACK 2.PASSING THROUGH THE EYE OF THE WIND 3.PORT TACK WIND SAILING BASICS—MANOEUVERS

8. the stern of the boat is passed through the wind, both the mainsail and the jib have to be adjusted. CREW COMMANDS Skipper: “ready to Jibe” The crew checks the sheets, secures the new working jib sheet and maintains tension on but uncleats the current working sheet Crew: “ready” Skipper: “Jibing” The crew begin to center the mainsail (important to prevent an uncontrolled forceful swing of the boom) Skipper slowly turn the boat as the mainsail being centered Once the stern passes through the wind, the mainsail is let out and the jib’s sheet is released and new working sheet is trimmed. At the same time the crew have to move to the other side of the boat to keep the boat balanced.

9. There are different regulations and rules for the many types of sail racing; depending on the type of boat, the type of course, of class and the type of competition. We will focus here on basic crossing rules that apply in most types of sail racing. A boat on starboard tack sails with the wind blowing onto the starboard (right) side, and the mainsail on the port (left) side. A boat on port tack sails with the wind blowing onto the port (left) side, and the mainsail on the starboard (right) side. Port / Starboard This is the most common rule used while racing and overrides most other rules. A boat on Port tack shall give way to a boat on Starboard tack. You should always be aware of boats around you – but especially when you are on port tack as you need to give way. WIND SAILING BASICS

10. Windward VS Leeward When two boats are on the same tack and overlapped, the windward boat is the boat that is closest to the wind. This boat must keep clear of all other boats to leeward. A common situation is when a boat is sailing downwind on a collision course with a boat on the same tack sailing upwind. The boat sailing downwind must give way to the boat sailing upwind. SAILING BASICS

11. Clear Ahead / Clear Astern When two boats are on the same tack and not overlapped, the boat clear astern must keep clear of the boat clear ahead. Basically if you are passing a boat on the same tack you should keep clear of them. Buoy Room When two or more boats on the same tack are approaching a buoy, the boats on the outside shall give room to the boats on the inside to pass the mark. There are more complicated rules to this regarding the 2 boat lengths circle – but we will not address them here.

17. Before crossing the start line, the racing committee will inform you by using the following signals according to the time left before start. -5 min = Warning class signal:1 sound + - 4 min = Preparatory signal:1 sound + - 1 min = Preparatory flag removed:1 long sound + -Start = Class flag removed: 1 sound + Individual recall: 1 acoustic signalTotal recall: 2 acoustic signals TODAY’S RACE

18. IRC Rating Point System for Ranking Calculations Each boat is given an IRC coefficient based on the boat specificities (sails, hull, mast…). Scoring calculations are done by weighting racing time with this IRC coefficient. That means that the boat arriving first is not necessarily the winner, it will depend on its IRC rating. IRC Ratings of the boats: Oceanis 40: 1.011 Oceanis 46: 1.037 Calculations and Deliberation Between End of Races and Gala Dinner Award Presentation Ceremony: Presentation of Results and Prize Giving at Gala Dinner TODAY’S RACE

19. Put your life jacket on before boarding and wear it all the time at sea. For your safety and for team efficiency, always respect the skipper’s instructions Mind your head during the maneuvers onboard (swing of the boom) Keep on the recommended position on board Handle different elements of the boat (sheets, winchs,…) Improve team efficiency by focusing on and dedicating to the individual task given Wear gloves, spray top and barefoot onboard. SAFETY & CONCLUSION
