5. Trim #2
• Pull pole and tack out if you can do both.
Otherwise pull tack out.
• Move to grinding on winch.
• Load new spinnaker sheet onto winch for jibe.
6. Pit
• Ease vang to mark and cunningham off.
• Pull pole out if Trim #2 can’t do both pole and tack
together.
• Make sure spinnaker halyard jammer is closed.
• Tail spinnaker halyard up from cockpit.
• Once going, ease outhaul and sets up vang.
• Clean up halyards and tack line once settled.
7. Mast
• Reaches in and takes slack out of spin halyard.
• Bounce spinnaker up from mast. Make call: “3, 2, 1,
made!” Checks halyard marks and move to rail.
• Pulls jib around and makes sure clew is out so
chute can fill.
8. Bow
• Make sure halyard is clear and pulled forward.
• Open the hatch and make sure sheets are clean
and set up.
• Dig tack and clew out and pull forward and get out
under jib foot and around pulpit. Keep hold of the
head the chute if possible, keeping it forward; need
to have the clew patch pulled (high) and around
headstay so it’s not caught anywhere. Having
this free for the trimmer helps the rotation and
becomes the key to the hoist. Help feed clew, head
and tack during hoist; remember the clew needs to
be moving the whole time!
• Check spinnaker on the way up and make sure
there are no twists or problems with string line.
• Pulls jib down if that’s been called.
• Get lazy spinnaker sheet clear; call “Clear to jibe.”
• Close hatch and get to the rail.
9. Floater
• Move forward to be ready to help taking jib down
if it’s jib-down conditions.
• If windy, stay aft and help tactician jibe runners.
Bear-Away Set, Early Jibe
This maneuver is typically done when you have a nice
lead, and you are thinking about jibing but don’t want
to split with the fleet. You wait and watch the next
boat, and if they are committing to jibe-setting, you roll
into your jibe. Priorities are the same for a normal bear-
away, but you are looking to have the sheet cleared
(call “clear to jibe”) and the new sheet being loaded on
the winch and slack taken out.
If the jib will be coming down, then you have to make
the call over whether to leave the jib up and drop it
at the end of the jibe, or wait until it’s down and, only
then, when Bow calls “clear to jibe,” you can jibe. That’s
always the important part as you don’t want the sheet
under the foot of the jib or tangled in the sail to affect
your jibe. Decide the priority of the jibe and getting the
jib down early, and let the team know the plan.
1. Helm
• Execute smooth steering.
• Keep the bow at the right angle until the chute is
at full hoist; then put the boat onto best angle to
fill chute.
• Work hard on speed out of hoist, ready for the jibe.
2. Tactician
• Communicate type of set, style of exit, and plan
out of the mark.
• Ease runner, reducing load to downwind tension.
3. Main
• Ease main to flatten boat, allowing boat to bear
away.
• Adjust for downwind settings—outhaul and
cunningham off, vang to downwind mark and lock
traveler in the middle.
• Have mainsheet set up, ready for the jibe.
4. Trimmer
• Make call on jib up or down.
• Ease jib onto hobble and loads winch ready for the
quick snap of the spinnaker sheet.
