Get constant input from the spinnaker trimmer so you can bear off up
in the puffs and head up in the lulls. This is especially important
for the puffs which aren't always apparent to the helmsman. Lulls are
easier to spot because the spinnaker clew sags. When the clue sags
head up til the clue rises and you build speed, then bear off. It's a
continual up and down process. -
