Come About Sailing Maneuver

Here's a quick and easy beginner lesson for the maneuver known as "coming about". This lesson will surely fire up your young sailor at heart as it's an easy one for them to learn. The lesson is only a few minutes in length so it makes for a great mini sailing lesson for the day!
