How does this channel only have 4k subs? The production quality of these videos is insane, not to mention the actual lessons being taught!
Thanks Alex! Glad you are enjoying the videos and really appreciate the comment on the quality.
Scantily clad lady and they would be set, seems the trend anyways!
It's probably because is fairly new.
If they keep up with this level of material, I give it a year until they deservingly explode!
300% up in subscribers in one year..keep it up guys👊
I agree Alex! My new fave channel 🙌
Great POV for understanding what's actually going on during the different maneuvers! Thanks for the excellent breakdown!
absolutely love these educational videos. I am learning so much. THANK YOU!
Excellent Joan! So glad you are learning lots about sailing and enjoying the videos :)
Thank You!! Love your tips and the way you present them!!
Hi... I'm reading John Wray's "South Sea Vagabonds", first published in 1939 and how he built his first sailboat himself in the early 1930s (he was only 21 at the time).
Anyway, I'm 73 and am enjoyong his book, though I'm always looking up words as I know nothing of sailing. Wray mentioned coming out of his first storm and he and his crew being careful not to let their boat gybe, and so I had to look it up here in CZcams. Your video was the first to come up. Great explanation.
If only I was young again. Thanks!
Cool info, we'll have to check out that book. Never too old. We had an 80 year old student last week, he was sharp as a tack! There is a saying among sailors, "Go cruising for 5 years, come home 10 years younger."
WONDERFUL training videos, thank you so much!
Excellent explanations and execution. Good job!
Love your channel! Learning to sail so I watch your channel nightly and take notes! The quality and explanations are fantastic and are really helpful!
Thanks Tracy! That's wonderful that you are finding the videos so helpful...
Couldn’t agree with Alex’s comment more! As a new student of sailing I have been voraciously consuming online info and let me tell you, there’s a lot of trash out there. I’m pretty discerning when it comes to subscribing to CZcams channels but it only took me 4 minutes to know this one is a keeper. Thanks for the great instruction!!
Awesome Renee! So glad you are finding these sailing videos helpful...
Thank you. As someone brand new to sailing, this is the very best video I've found. Very appreciated.
Wow, thanks!
excellent and very clear. Thank you
Just watched a couple of your vids and I am extremely impressed with your teaching....I want to get back into sailing and this is so useful to me...very many thanks for such a good job.
Glad they were helpful Jeremy! Best of luck getting back on the water...
I am learning to sail with friends, on weekends. I have done these movements several times, but now, I understand what is happening, and what is expected of me. I feel more confident about performing these movements with greater precision, thank you!
Excellent! Keep sailing. It's magical when the whole crew is working together and you pull off the perfect tack.
excellent content. thanks for sharing this!
Great lesson. This is how it should be done.
Great video, thanks so much, so clear and well shown, love it
Glad it was helpful!
Oooo this is exactly what I was looking for. Instant subscriber. Id pay money for this stuff! Thank you!👍
Awesome, thank you!
Great video! You did a fantastic job explaining everything. Much appreciated!
You're very welcome!
Hey, your Sales Incentive payment is all sorted out and good to go!
Learned a bunch thanks
Nice job on the vids! And on a very nice looking boat too! 😉
Thank you for all your efforts!
Our pleasure!
one of the better explanations out there.......thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Hi Tim! Great video.
I feel these videos are excellent since there is no BS. no long winded speeches and I like how they are broken down into specific sailing jobs. cant wait to feel the wind take the boat for the first time. never been sailing. I am trying to learn by watching. I feel the more I understand the fundamentals the easer and less scary it will be when it comes time.
Glad to be a help. We love helping people embark on a lifetime of adventure.
Very nice!
Thank you very much, most informative.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for sharing.
Great demonstration captain!
When I have very strong winds I rather do a Tack instead of Jibe. Much safer and also much faster for the inexperienced crew
Yes, great point! There are definitely times when going all the way around and through a tack instead of doing a gybe, especially in stronger winds, stormier conditions and with inexperienced crew, makes a lot of sense...
Well I think, with strong wind and a small boat, going all the way around can result in your boat heeling or even capsizing, no?
@@michajabonski8152 If it's done correctly is way more safe.
In any case we do not do things that we are not trained and practice to do and I recommend you to join a local sailing club with a coach and ask him to explain you everything 😎
Awesome tutorial
Glad you liked it
Very well training. Thanks guys..
Glad you enjoyed it
Very helpful. Thanks.
You're welcome!
well done
Thank you for your content.. I will be binge watching before I begin my first 4 day sailing class! It feels like learning a new language ..and maybe some math too! Lol
Welcome aboard!
Agree with comment on lack of subscribers, brilliant videos, I never subscribe but think you deserve it. Learnt more on here than on my rya course, going to find where you guys are for next course!
Thanks Donna! MUCH appreciated :)
really quaility video, great narrator, very good demonstration
Glad you liked it!
Good tut. How about a reefing episode, with a traditional main and in-mast furling system? Thanks.
Yes, a reefing episode is a great idea! We will definitely add that to the filming list for the next set of videos, which we are hoping to release this fall. Thanks!
Totally agree!
More....neeeeed morrrrreee. Nautilus is awesome!
Thanks so much! The pandemic put hold on this project, but we have already filmed more videos this year and are filming another round in the weeks to come. Hopefully should have some new instructional videos released this fall, so stay tuned! So glad you are enjoying them.
Tim! Thanks for these videos. I am a musician who's about to move into a boat and learn to sail it and sail to South America and your videos are just simply the best I have seen so far. Is there a way for me to participate as a member of one of your crews?? Keep up these videos, please!!
Hey Diego... Glad you are enjoying the videos! Check out our website at www.nautilussailing.com. We run lots of courses in amazing destinations to help people learn to sail and we have some incredible trips for our alumni (our former students). Hoping to film some more videos this fall as countries reopen their borders :)
I'm gonna have a mixed crew German and English, so bilingual screaming commands in gale force winds will be fun! Might be handy to have main and jib each in a different language to address to :D
Sounds like quite the international crew :) Hope it all goes well and you guys have a blast!
Sorry for my English, but when I tack I let the boat fall from wind a little to gain speed, and then steer the boat through the wind smouthly. You loose the most speed by steering through the wind to abtruptly, with the risk of stalling, and eventually even jibing....
What kind of sail boat is this? Looks so beautiful. Excited to go back to sailing.
She's an AWESOME boat! She's a 2012 Jeanneau 439 Sun Odyssey named "Journey". We sail all the major production boats and the newer Jeanneau's are definitely our favorites. They sail beautifully, have modern lines and design, lots of light and space, and are super comfortable. Hope you are able to get back on the water soon!
As someone who has been hit in the head by the boom during a gybe, and left unconscious on the cabin floor, step #2 of the gybe process is very important.
Wow that is crazy! It's no joke out there, in a flash things can go badly. We say they named that part of the boat correctly.
Can you tell me what model sailboat this is? Great video!
Hey Joe... Yes, she's a BEAUTIFUL boat! She is a 2012 Jeanneau 439 Sun Odyssey. We've sailed on a lot of monohulls, and this is absolutely one of our favorites!
You should write about it this book with all illustration , on how to sail , wind control and all the terminology about sailing and the boat! Pls?
👍☮️💟
what make of sailboat is that?. I love the salon seating capacity
That is a Jeanneau 439. It's a great boat for groups of 4-8 people. Easy access to the swim platform
When tacking, you tighten the main sheet. When do you loosen the main sheet? Is that what you meant by trimming the sail or were you referring to the jib?
❤️
So, in a Tack you turn the boat upwind and in a Gybe you turn downwind? Do I got that right?
Yep
çok iyi fidyo
Great to know as a single sailor😂😂
Excel ant thank you
Glad the videos were helpful Justin!
Drat! A system error has led to the transaction being sent to an invalid email address.
Reimbursement of cash: guidelines and steps
So Tacking is all about the Genoa sail, and Gybing is all about the Main sail??? Correct???
Mostly true! On a tack the mainsail is centered, so you only deal with the jib and move it from one side to the other. On a gybe, the sail we worry about is the mainsail (we want to avoid an accidental gybe!) so we deal with moving that from one side to other first, and once that is safely across, then we move the jib/genoa.
You’re backing your jib as you tack you will maintain your speed better if you get your jib on the other side before it fills
It's all a balancing act! You definitely don't want to release your jib before you are through the wind or you loose momentum and your jib flaps like crazy. However, once the jib is through the wind get it on the new side and trimmed as quickly as possible to maintain speed.
Significant, yet another round of important refund information
should do videos to help people that sail alone.
Yes, we love that idea John! At some point we hope to make a series for single handers, but we have a couple of other video projects in line first. Stay tuned :)
@You don’t have to be rich, plenty of ordinary guys own bass boats, jet skis, snowmobiles (or his & hers). For the same price you can go sailing with a 14-21 foot used, or new, sailboat

"Ready a-bout" - "Hard a-lee"!?
That's the way most of us were taught from days gone by. However, it's not clear and common language. Sounds pretty salty like a pirate though
WEAR GLOVES!!!!
I see so many people barehanding lines. WHY?
Well spotted and COMPLETELY agree! All it takes is a couple of nasty rope burns to serve as a reminder 😁
You must love Jehovah your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. You must love your neighbor as yourself. Jesus the anointed is Lord! Repent and be baptized and believe the Gospel.
