Sailing Instructions
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
1. Never sail in running water such as streams or rivers, as it is easy to lose control.
2. Never swim after a stalled or stuck boat. Wait patiently for the wind currents to run the boat again so
that you can return it to a location where it's easier to retrieve.
3. After running, remove the hatch to allow the interior of the boat to completely dry. Neglecting to take
this step, could result in the corrosion of the electronic components.
RC sailing presents a more interesting set of challenges than power boating. Sailing requires a constant
reaction to water movement and wind conditions. These reactions require adjustments to both the rudder
and sails in order to find the best possible setting for speed and course. There is no substitute for actual
“on-the-water” experience, so after a couple of sailings you may want to read through the manual again
as you gain a better understanding of the art of sailing. As you learn, it's a good idea to become familiar
with sailing terminology which will make it easier to understand the concepts required to become an expert
captain. Please study the chart below to understand how wind affects the sailboat and how to set your
sails and rudder to best use the wind to navigate your course.
