Now, THIS is why I’m planning to put a mast on my little dory!
You captured a segment in time so rare and your presentation is with perfect timing and tone…not too much talking yet, just enough to grasp a bit of your encounter!

You are a very experienced sailor. The boat handles beautifully.

Now there is a moment of peaceful reality; in an increasingly surreal world.
Many thanks for posting. I found this video inspirational.

Thanks for the request. Unfortunately Mingming is out of the water and in pieces being prepared for next year’s voyage, so not suitable for filming at the moment! I’ll see what I can do once she’s fully rigged and sailing, but that won’t be until June next year.

Roger would you be kind enough to do a small tutoral about sailing the junk
a few key points to help me along with mine.
Yard haller and its purpose and what to do with it.
boom and yard lacing.
farrels
battons materials hinged? bamboo?
sail material?
perhaps you could show your controls for your rig?
anything you can show is great
many thanks
