Heaving To

Posted by Ron on 10/8/2009, 9:57:51

I have a new 20-ft ketch from Swallow Boats. I have always sailed sloops and am quite familiar with heaving to in a sloop. Does anyone have any advice for heaving to in a ketch. I was thinking that dropping the main, fixing the rudder amidships and using the mizzen to balance the jub would work. Any advice out there?

Thanks
