I just received my new Laser Sailor magazine. For those of you that are not Laser class members, this quarterly magazine alone is worth the cost of membership. This issue has an article about downwind sailing that is excellent. It left me hungry for more information. Brett Davis refers to 'trimming three or four times' as you transition from sailing by the lee to a broad reach. Could someone shed some light on this? Normally, I would picture trimming as a smooth movement as I change angles to the wind. Is this trimming more of a pumping of the sail? Do you make this transition smoothly or in a stairstep type climb back to the broad reach? Any comments will be helpful. Thank you.
