76Trombones said @ 2011-06-29 11:09:56:
A well-sailed square rigger can be more manoeuverable than a fore-aft rigged vessel. The sails on the different masts can be braced around independently, so you
have side-to-side thrust available even with no steerage way. Fore pushing bow to port, mizzen pushing stern to stb, rudder ready to back stern to stb etc... The closest a modern rig can get is backing the jib, but in most boats it's pretty much a momentum affair.

Not super snappy though! Sails could be hauled up, or struck and reset, rigging re-led...
Yeah ok I had considered that - we use sails in manouvers all the time, especially mark roundings to minimise rudder usage ;-)
I just thought, 60-60 is a long way to go at <6kn BS! Although I guess the momentum of these things would gigantic aswell, but surely they also have a rig type that provides the most drag ?

Still what you describe is not a tack, if the fore sails are braced to provide side thrust then the boat is not passing head to wind ??

It’s 2400nm, and there’s more than a few other islands in the way, so mind where you go in your Ocean 50s. Race #1981
