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.
