Just looking in for some tips.. If you're sailing single-handedly, how do you land your sailboat by yourself on a beach?
Thanks in advance for your input!

the landing style would depend on the type of boat you're using. but the usual trick would be to just pull up the dagger board little by little. Then you can let your sail out and try not to run to ground very fast.
