Singlehanded: Spinnaker and Code zero handling on a Class 40

Lot of people were asking me to explain some of the specific technical terms that I use in my sailing videos. Here is me trying to explain some basics about the way how I handle asymmetrical spinnaker and gennaker while sailing singlehanded on my Class 40 boat.

Bok Ivica,
Class 40 sailboats are the best ever.
I love the last pogo 40.
Greetings from a Greek who is married to a Croatian lady!
Keep up with the good videos!

This is a great video. I have been wanting to learn about how to sail an open 40. I subscribed. Thanks, FD

Thanks :)

[@sailing.oneworld]

Very nice !!! More explaining Videos please 🥳🥳🥳

[@damjan071]

Odličan video. Hvala

Have just purchased a A-2 Spinnaker and want to ask you have a preferred sock/snuffer. Have a Dufour 470, so cruising. Well done and informative vid. Thanks!

[@ivicakostelic7232]

I think that ATN socks are the best

[@chrisclass4049]

Thanks for making..

[@HughBurgett]

Awesome.

Bonus points for color matching your underwear to the genoa.

U svakom slučaju vredan hvale sadržaj, jer na jednostavan i ilustrativan način, "normalnim" narativom otvara svet jedriličarstva i svima onima koje sve to zanima, a koji u najvećem broju nisu u prilici da to i prakticiraju iz raznoraznih raloga ...
Kao što am pre jedno dva mesesa u jednom od komentara na video zapise o Atlantiku napisao, svi ti video zapisi imaju dimenziju sadržaja koji se može koristiti za obuku i edukaciju ... I hvala na tome ...

[@Sasap66]

Novi segment kada je jederenje u pitanju :)
Za sada video "obuka", a u nekoj perspektivi i škola jederenja, žašto da ne? 😉

[@madario]

Ivica, to take it down, do you blanket the spi with the genoa also in strong winds? In the video it seems not. Thanks

[@madario]

Great video, what about putting a block in front of the forestay to operate the ropes of the snuffer from the safety of the cockpit? Also, do you gybe inside or outside? Thanks!

[@ivicakostelic7232]

Thanks!
Some people use this block, I used it on my first C40. But I quit because you only have full benefit of this system in (very) heavy weather. Otherwise it makes the manouver pretty slow. I gybe inside.

[@madario]

@@ivicakostelic7232 Thanks and happy new year! Look forward to seeing your solo gybing tecnique!

Pozdrav,
Sta class 40 ne koristi barbere za gennakere i driftere(code 0 na jadranu 😉) ??

[@ivicakostelic7232]

Uglavnom da, koristi.

[@matrix_x_]

Ivice, može li se s ovim brodom preko Atlanskog oceana ili čak oko svijeta?

[@ivicakostelic7232]

Naravno. Napravljen je za oceansko jedrenje. Ja sam prejedrio Atlantik na njemu. Što se tiče jedrenja oko svijeta non-stop, odgovor je: u principu može.
