Lagoon 440 - Closed Reached Trimming

- FFrroomm 3366 ttoo 4455 kknnoottss
: 2 reefs, 40% of the Genoa. The mainsail
traveler is dead center and the boom veers 1 meter to leeward.
The Genoa traveler moves forward slightly, the sheet is slackened to
open wide in strong wind conditions.
- FFrroomm 4455 ttoo 5555 kknnoottss
: 3 reefs alone (either storm sail or lie to),
traveler in the center, mainsail out by 1 meter.
The boat will be more at ease scudding in this weather.
- OOvveerr 5555 kknnoottss::
lie to, drag anchor or, preferably, scud bare poles.

CLOSED REACHED TRIMMING (between 75 and 130° to true wind)
- FFrroomm 00 ttoo 2233 kknnoottss
: full sail; the traveler is positioned between 1
meter from centre up to windward of center, depending on the wind
angle, the sheet is slackened so that boom is veering out anything
from 50 cm in calm weather to 2 meters when the wind is forcing.
In every case no more than one batten should be allowed to chafe at
the shroud at the fastest speeds.
The Genoa jib is slackened so that its average attack angle is head on
to the apparent wind.
- FFrroomm 2233 ttoo 2288 kknnoottss
: 1 reef, full Genoa. The adjustments are
identical.
- FFrroomm 2288 ttoo 3333 kknnoottss
: 2 reefs, 80% of the Genoa. The adjustments
remain identical.
- FFrroomm 3333 ttoo 3388 kknnoottss
: 2 reefs, 60% of the Genoa. The adjustments
remain identical.
- FFrroomm 3388 ttoo 4455 kknnoottss
: 3 reefs (or mainsail lowered and a little more
Genoa), 40% of the Genoa. The adjustments remain identical.
- FFrroomm 4455 ttoo 5555 kknnoottss
: mainsail lowered, 40 to 30% of the Genoa,
sufficiently trimmed so as not to flap.
- OOvveerr 5555 kknnoottss
: scudding, depending on the sea conditions the
mooring lines can be looped round behind the vessel and attached on
the opposite side to act as a brake.

WARNING
Your boat is designed to sail without the need to
climb onto the roof for any maneuvers. It is
dangerous to climb or stay on the roof particularly in
the event of gibing.
Keep children under close supervision.
RECOMMENDATION
Under sail put all engine controls in neutral to avoid any
damage to engines (with fixed or folding propellers).
