Avoid those embarrassing collisions with this simple drill !

Practice with a 3d sim, suitable for a first course in sailing

Rule A. Approach on different tacks - Port tack shall give way

Rule B. Approach on the same tack - Windward shall give way

NB In regatta competitions (i.e. fleet- and match racing) these correspond to ISAF rules 10 and 11.
