It is often deceptively calm on a windward shore but there may be stronger winds offshore. Be cautious in case you start with too much sail. Launch the boat with the sails hoisted before sailing away on a broad reach or run.
To return, sail to windward to reach the shore. As the water gets shallower be ready to raise the centreboard and rudder to keep them clear of the bottom.
返回时,迎⻛航⾏驶向岸边。随着⽔深逐渐变浅,准备抬起稳向板和舵,以免触底。
Turn into the wind and let out the sails to stop. Step over the side when the water is waist-deep or shallower. Hold the boat by the bow, lower the sails and take the boat out of the water.
