Heave to

Heave To is a good skill to practice. I use it when I am out alone and need to reef the mail or just take a break. In this video I just shook out a reef in the mail so the main is not as tight as it should be. The Telstar is very happy to Heave To and stay put. Normally she will only give way less than a knot.
