How to stop the boat - Heaving to on a catamaran

MULTICAM, MULTIBOAT TUTORIAL – onboard the Hobie 15, Hobie 16, Hobie Tiger and Hobie FX1 we’re taking a look at how to stop the boat by heaving to.

In sailing, heaving to (to heave to and to be hove to) is a way of slowing a sailing vessel’s forward progress, as well as fixing the helm and sail positions so that the vessel does not have to be steered. It is commonly used for a “break”; this may be to wait for the tide before proceeding, or to wait out a strong or contrary wind. For a solo or shorthanded sailor it can provide time to go below deck, to attend to issues elsewhere on the boat or to take a meal break. It is also used as a storm tactic.
