around one knot.
It is also prudent to triangulate the main boom with the topping lift, main sheet
and preventer to the aft mooring cleat. With the boom set to carry its own
weight, the weight of the furled main and any trapped water, the fully battened
mainsail is in the best position to look after itself when hove to in very strong
wind conditions.
Troubleshooting
Continually check that all shackles and fastenings are not worn and firmly
nipped up. Do not nip up fastenings that are sealed as this may break the seal
and cause water incursion.
At a time of crisis caused by breakage or excessive weather, first stabilize the
situation to get things under control (see Heavy Weather – Hove to). Then
resolve the problem.
