SAILING THE BINARY

Unlike propeller-driven boats that you basically point and accelerate, sailboats present an interesting challenge. Sailing requires constant reaction to water movements, any wind gusts, and any wind direction changes. These reactions then require adjustment of the rudder and sails in order to find the best possible course. There is no substitute for actual ” on-the-water” experience and after your first couple of outings you may want to read through this manual again in order to help you to gain a better understanding of the “art” of sailing. While learning to sail, it is a good idea to pick up on as much sailing terminology as possible. This will make ii easier to grasp some aspects.

How To Sail BINARY

IMPORTANT NOTICE:

1. Sail your BINARY only in still bodies of water. Never sail your boat in running water such as streams or rivers, as it is easy to lose control of your boat.
2. Do not sail BINARY in heavy winds.
3. Never attempt to swim after a stalled or stuck boat! Wait patiently for the wind currents to return the boat to shore.
4. After running, remove the deck and allow the interior of the boat to dry out completely. If you neglect to do this, it may result in corrosion of the electronic components.
