[Rhodes22-list] First sail ever on my Rhodes

[Charles Nieman]

How does one do that? I thought the concept of heave to was one sail was pushing back while one was pulling forward????


in the attached picture I think I see two sails???

 

I hven't ever heaved to, something I need to learn .... but this confuses me
