Keep the jib up if you need to beat to windward in a breeze, but by all means drop the jib coming in to dock as part of slowing down for a controlled approach! Making me miss the summer evening return under sail, knowing folks are watching how you’ll dock… On Tue, Nov 2, 2021 at 7:40 PM Peter Zimowsky via montgomery_boats < montgomery_boats@mailman.xmission.com> wrote:
Hi folks: For years when I’m coming into the dock under sail, I’ve dropped the jib and come in on the main sail. Now I’m hearing people that you don’t drop the jib. What’s the consensus? Thanks,
