Performing a gybe

The Gybe buttons can be used to Gybe to the same offset angle on the opposite side of wind.

Example:

  • The Gybe to port button is enabled if your current locked wind angle is to starboard, the Gybe to starboard button will be disabled.

  • The Gybe to starboard button is enabled if the locked wind angle is to port, the Gybe to port button will be disabled.

Note

Both buttons will be disabled when you are not sailing downwind.

  1. To Gybe to port, select the Gybe to port button and then select Gybe to port from the pop-over options.
  2. To Gybe to starboard, select the Gybe to starboard button and then select Gybe to starboard from the pop-over options.

When you Gybe in Steer to wind mode, the vessel turns through the Gybe angle. The autopilot will then adjust the heading to mirror the locked wind angle from the previous Gybe.
