Manual Sails Tutorial - Explained using learning tool of the era of the Age of Sail

[Grunf]

A tutorial on how to sail with manual sails in Naval Action game with a twist. I am showing this on an actual learning  tool that the sailors of that period were using to learn the art of manual sails.

 

The Mariner's Compass was graciously borrowed to me by a friend Zeljko Skomersic who has an impressive naval collection of model ships that you can view in the following video:

I have that animated gif from Jodgi's post bookmarked ever since I found it on steam so I can copy it to chat on PvE server

I think I have answered your question on messenger Jan.

 

But it to is one picture I have had for some time.

Going through my pictures of  this period sparked me to put this up.

 

If It really offends you I will remove it.

 

But maybe the best way to settle this is a battle on the high sea's.

Once I have my sea legs I will be willing to combat sir for the title.

If I lose you may have it with my compliments.

 

I remain sir your obedient servant.
