The importance of

pre-planning for night

sailing was brought

home to me only a few

weeks ago, when we

aborted a planned non-stop

voyage from Poole to Dartmouth

and made an unscheduled stop

in Weymouth.

For Dorset sailors, Weymouth is

a amiliar port and a regular daysail

destination. Its also a very easy

entrance, but as we approached I

realised the local knowledge I had

didnt help much at night. The

lights o the port mixed with those

o the erry moored just inside the

breakwater, the busy searont and

the unair to make them all but

invisible. The green vertical lights

on the northern breakwater had

aded to a milky jade, while the two

red lights which my aulty memory

told me marked the end o the

southern breakwater proved to be

a cable or so inside the entrance.

Luckily I was cautious enough to

sail past the entrance at a sae

distance beore committing to it,

by which time I had worked out

what was where and matched it up

with my daytime picture. But it was

sobering to think that my mistake

with the red lights would have

taken us straight into the

breakwater had I ollowed it

through. By contrast, doing my

homework would have told me

that those two red lights are

actually leading lights to give a

sae entrance to the harbour a

simple act that would have been

o enormous help, and which I

used or a much more relaxed

night-time visit only a week later.

Planning for anight sailOn the aorementioned voyage, I

had planned to be at sea all night,

arriving at Dartmouth in the early

morning. My error was to have not

anticipated the possibility that we

might change our plan I hadnt

developed a Plan B.

Planning or a night sail is much

the same as or the daytime, but

you have to be more organised.

Chartwork is harder at night, and

oten youre sailing shorthanded

with someone asleep below.

Anticipating changes can make or

a much less stressul passage.

People plan passages in dierent

ways, but or me the rst step is

always marking up the tidal atlas.

A ready reckoner o how the tide is

expected to behave over the next

ew hours is essential to fexible

passage making, especially i there

are signicant tidal gates such as

races. Good tidal knowledge gives

an immediate indication as to how

practical a considered change o

plan really is or even i youre too

late on the tide to complete your

original plan.

Combined with the weather

orecast it can also tell you a lot

about the sea state a strong tide

underneath you can be o greatassistance in reaching your

destination in a timely ashion, but i

youre also beating you should be

aware that the wind-over-tide chop

will be signicant. At night, waves

seem to grow, and your ability to

anticipate them is drastically

reduced, so a knowledge o the sea

state is valuable.

Once you know the limitations set

by the tide and/or weather, you can

start considering ways in which you

might shorten or abort the passage

i necessary. Ask any sailing

instructor and they will tell you theimportance o Plan B, whether you

are crossing the Atlantic or simply

preparing to come alongside. For

night sailing, pay special attention

to the pilot book to avoid tricky or

poorly-lit entrances.

In daylight the usual reasons or

changing plan are inclement

weather or some kind o

equipment ailure, but at night thenumber one cause is usually crew.

The sea is a dierent and daunting

place in the dark, with both wind

and sea seeming stronger, so i

some o your crew are night sailing

or the rst time you should be

aware that the chance o

seasickness is increased, as is that

o exhaustion.

Sleeping on boardSome people nd sleeping on a

pitching, tossing boat or our

hours at a time a doddle, but many

others nd sleep impossible. Withlack o sleep comes severe atigue,

and with severe atigue come

mistakes and nausea. Good

skippers will know their crew

limitations and avoid pushing them

too ar, but i your crew are

becoming exhausted you should

at least be prepared to head or

port i possible.

That said, sleeping on board is askill you can learn, so i you have

regular crew and would like to start

making longer night passages,

start out with a ew voyages lasting

part o the night, preerably in calm

conditions when below decks is a

comortable place to be. Ater a

while, with a more condent crew

who are used to getting their head

down as soon as they go o watch,

you can sail rom dusk until dawn

or even undertake consecutive

night sails with aplomb.

Safety at nightThe key to saety at night is to see

and be seen. Make sure that you

show the correct navigation lights

at all times, that your radar refector

is hoisted, and that your crew

know where the anti-collision fares

are kept. Its also useul to keep a

torch at hand to shine on the sail to

increase your visibility.

Any night-sailing crew shouldalso know how to recognise and

interpret the commonly-seen lights

o ships, while at least the skipper

should know what to do i a tangle

o lights on the horizon is identied

to be a vessel over 50m with a

200m tow, and how to recognise

quirky light characteristics such as

that o a south cardinal buoy.

Another very useul modern tool

or avoiding collision is AIS. Its

easy to understand, and most sets

have an alarm that will sound i a

target will pass you within a set

saety zone a handy prompt or abelow-decks skipper! AIS will also

tell you a vessels MMSI number,

giving you a direct means to call

them i necessary.Tidal atlases are a useful readyreckoner when passage planning

10 Top tips fornight sailing1Keep a good lookout forother vessels or obstacles,lit or unlit.

2Wear a lifejacket and clipon, especially if youre onwatch on your own. The odds

of being found at night are slim.

3Wrap up warm. Even insummer, nights at sea arechilly. Take plenty of layers and

put them on early.

4 Swot up on your lights theyre invaluable indeciphering the night muddle.

5Be seen! Use correct navlights, deploy a radarreflector and have a torch

ready to shine on the sails.

6 If you suffer fromseasickness, dose up onthe tablets early to fight it off.

7Dont overestimate yourabilities. If your crew arentconfident steering in darkness

you might manage a single

watch through a short summer

night, but spring, autumn and

winter passages need two or

more watches.

8 Always have a Plan B,even if its just retracingyour steps. Know what is

possible with the given

conditions and tide.

9 Take time to enter strangeports. If you cant work outthe entrance, can you anchor

safely until daylight, or stay

offshore away from danger?

10Provision well. Its

amazing how hungryyou get in the small hours.

Keep hot drinks on the go too

a Thermos helps here.

Lights and AIS notwithstanding,

the onus is on you to avoid

collision. This is never more

apparent than when sailing

through an area of pot buoys,

when nothing will substitute for a

good pair of eyes on watch. But

even the best eyes can miss blackbuoys in black water, so avoid

these areas if possible.

The final, crucial safety point to

stress is to make every effort to

keep your crew on board.

Lifejackets should be worn at all

times, and any crew outside the

cockpit should always clip on we

tend to clip on in the cockpit too,

especially if theres only one

person on deck. Your chances of

recovering an MOB at night are

very slim.

WHY SAIL AT NIGHT?For many, especially those tied to

the all-too-meagre holiday

entitlement permitted by most

employers, night sailing is a way to

change your cruising ground. A

common idea is to make a

passage lasting one or two nights

to get to a distant destination,

before pottering slowly back

exploring the intervening ports. In

other words, night sailing is a way

to cover miles.

Its pretty simple really. I can

realistically plan for an average

speed of 4.5 knots in my Contessa

26 Red Dragon. That means that a

100-mile passage will take me

around 24 hours, so to sail the 130

miles from Poole to Falmouth

non-stop I would need to spend a

night at sea. However, if I were only

to sail in daylight it would take

three days sailing of 10 hours

each, even without allowing for any

diversions from the direct route to

get to the intervening ports thats

a lot of time saved.

THE JOY OFNIGHT SAILINGTheres one more reason for night

sailing, and for me its one of the

most important its immensely

rewarding. In daylight, there are

so many prompts to give you

wind direction and sail set that

there is really no excuse for not

sailing the boat to her full

potential. At night, gone are the

telltales, Windex, ripples on the

water, flags on the shore theres

just you, the helm and the feel of

the wind on your cheek. Itsexcellent sailing practice, and even

if you have an electronic wind

indicator I think its worth turning it

off from time to time to practise

your wind awareness.

These days, sail power is

exclusively used for enjoyment,

and for me there are few things

more enjoyable than watching the

sun set over a benign sea,

spending the night listening to the

sea and feeling at one with the

boat, passing a watch below lulled

by the sound of water chasing

down the hull and waking to steerthrough the grey twilight to the

magical sparkle of a new dawn. Its

escapism in its purest form, and

thoroughly recommended.
