• Approach the chosen site on a close reach, using the mainsheet (or traveller) to control the speed.
• 运⽤主缭(或滑⻋)控制船速,后迎⻛航⾏,靠近所选抛锚处。 •
Furl or lower the jib if possible or let it fly. Release the mainsheet to bring the boat to a stop.
• 如可⾏,可卷起或降下前帆,或者完全松掉。松主缭,使船停下。
• Lower the anchor over the windward side of the boat and raise the centreboard (the rudders on a multihull).
• 在船的上⻛侧下锚,然后抬起稳向板(如驾驶多体船,则抬起两侧船舵)。 •
• 当船向后漂移时,主帆会保持船相对于⻛的位置。 •
The mainsail will hold the boat’s position relative to the wind as you drift back.
Make sure the anchor is holding. Check that two in-line objects on the land do not change position in relation to each other. This is known as ‘taking a transit’.
• 检查确保锚抓地。检查陆地上位于同⼀直线的两个物体是否保持相对静⽌,通 常叫做“选择参照物”。
• When the anchor is holding, lower the mainsail.
• 如果锚抓地,就降下主帆。 •
If the anchor is not holding, let out more warp. If this fails, retrieve the anchor and make another attempt.
