BupBoats TacTics :- The Lee Bow

Показать описание
This video explores the theory behind the Lee Bow and shows how a trailing sail boat can use the windward wind shadow to attack the the lead boat while sailing to windward.

This simple sailing Tactic can help you control the boat in front creating a passing lane to prevent the leading boat from covering you while you sail to windward.

Wow, that's incredible, i'm guessing this works for every class of boat including dinghy's. Thanks!

Outstanding vid, the best I have found on lee-bow'ing. It took a while to get the full benefit of lee-bow on the upwind GBR boat.

The boat that was leeward bowed as you are saying should have tacked as so as it was losing the tacked back again onto the same tack into clear air. Or pulled the vang on a little to sail higher but at the same speed.

Why didn't starboard boat just cross the bow and then tack right on them?
