Wikipedia Wiktionary dictionary logo

  • A jibe or gybe is a sailing maneuver where a sailing vessel (which is sailing before the wind) turns its stern through the wind, such that the wind direction changes from one side of the boat to the other. For square-rigged ships, this is called wearing ship and involves bringing the ship before the wind with braces carefully controlling the sails. In this maneuver, the mainsail will cross the center of the boat while the jib is pulled to the other side of the boat.
