Watch how a clever captain gets his 80′ stick under a 65′ bridge on the ICW. He uses water bags weighing 2 tons suspended from halyards to heel over. This is on SAIL Magazine’s facebook page. Unbelievable!

That’s great – next time I’m in the Okachobee Canal, I’ll try the same
maneuver.On Mon, Nov 14, 2011 at 2:48 PM, Pete Dubler wrote:

With a boat like that and a 65′ stick, why, I wonder, wouldn’t he just
sail outside? You want to chug down the ICW, get a trawler. They fit
under the bridges just fine.Quote:

Does anyone know where he got the water bags? I need to get under a 35 ft. bridge with my 424 at 54ft.above the water. Thanks-Jim Roberts

I don’t know about the water bags, but there may be someone near the bridge that provides the service, if it is a common route.
However, I calculate that you need to heel the boat over 51° to get the stick 34 feet above the water. Have you checked to see if the cockpit will flood at that angle of heel.

I don’t know about the water bags, James, but Home Depot is having a
sale on Sawzalls.

Here you go: http://tufftechbags.com/flexiblerainbarrels.htm then make a
sling for it. There may be other manufacturers – the ones on the video look
like the ones carried by helicopters for firefighting. I’m sure I could
find them exactly if I look more.Bob
