- University of Georgia Sailing Chalk Talk 7: Steering Without Steering
Welcome to our new video series! Our growth has been exponential and in efforts to reach as many people as possible on our race team, we've moved to virtual chalk talks. Enjoy!

I've been "sailing" my whole life, but learned more watching this series of UGA Sailing videos. Thanks so much!
Excellent video
Great explanation.
You’re videos are my constant go to for our practices and reinforcing what we go over! Thank you!
Regarding your description of weight placement…every boat I’ve ever owned has responded exactly opposite. I sail a “Duck Punt” and it has no rudder. In order to tack you must move your weight forward. I lived on a Flicka that sailed to weather in light air perfectly balanced. I would lean forward slightly to head up, back to fall off. My current Montgomery 15…same thing. In order to come about I shift my weight a bit forward for a smooth tack. I don’t know where your information comes from, but it’s not supported by my real world experience in a variety of different boats. 🤷♂️
Love watching your videos. Nice work. Thanks
Really fantastic teaching! Easy to pay attention
Great video. Thanks for posting. Science aside, everything you say about sailing without putting the “breaks” on, works on the water.
Excellent explanation! Keep up the great work.
Mikka Kittey/Tessa Violet of the sailing world... and I mean that as a compliment. Well done once again. I learn a lot every time I watch another video. Excellent. I need to take notes. Da... thanks!
Brilliant video. Many thanks from a sailing novice.
This is some great stuff!
It’s been almost 30 years since I was a student at UGA. Somehow I feel like I’m learning more now!
This is great! Thanks!
Really learned so much from this video
Valuable. Really helpful and very practical. A technique that builds confidence. Tougher with unirig but also works.
works great for me , good vids thanks, KISS
for all the Rudderless sailing how to videos... this is the only one that actually EXPLAINS its, not just shows it
Thank you for a very informative video. It helped me get into ruderless sailing quick and easily!
I have heard that a two masted boat such as the Polynesian Hokulea, Not only can initiate, but maintain any long course relative to the wind with sail balance alone: Sheeting the foresail more than the aft. So that windward pivots are checked by more foresail push and leeward, by more aft sail push. Does this work on a sloop? For all courses even downwind and broad reach?
