Sailing off Shore: Weather Reading (No Tech) | Sailing Wisdom [S4 Ep20]
February 02, 2020 by Rigging Doctor | Language: EN Play Time: 00:18:25 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
Herby gives a lesson on how we get our weather information while out at sea. He does this with no computer, no internet connection, and most of all, no gizmo that you have to buy! He gets our weather information from his “Weather Eye”.
Herby tells you how to look at the clouds to see what winds you will be granted based on the shape and formation of the clouds. Clouds are just water vapor floating around in the atmosphere, and the clouds movement will tell you what is going on in the atmosphere (more importantly for you, what is going to happen at the surface) and what winds will be coming your way!
This is all important information when you are sailing because the wind is your fuel. Too much or too little are bad things for a passage-making sailboat. Having the right amount of wind in the right direction is crucial in getting you to your destination in a timely manner. Sure, you could use something like PredictWind with an Iridium connection, but that is expensive and not always accurate. Looking at the sky to read the clouds is free and very accurate because it is the weather that you will be experiencing locally.
Herby and Maddie are making their way offshore around the Iberian Peninsula. They left out of Northern Portugal and are heading to the Algarve on the South coast of Portugal.
