If you have overstood a mark, you have only 2 options. One is to trap and the other is to continue to sail until a reaching angle is obtained to lower the spin. Getting out and sailing will help with processing the information.



Same overhere. With the seastate we have overhere I tend to almost exclusively for the "continue then reach" solution. Everything is better then stuffing it. Sadly it is not a solution that can correct an earlier mistake only minimize the hit you take.

Again this refers directly to the need to plan well ahead when doing 1-up spi sailing.

Fair winds to you all,

Wouter
