  • Tahtmatu halss juhtub, kui paadijuhtimise või tuule pööramise tulemusena ootamatult paadi ahter läbib tuulesilma ning grootpuri ühes poomiga liigub ühes poordist teise. Selline liikumine võib olla väga kiire ning ettevalmistamata halsiga seotud jõud võivad olla väga ohtlikud nii meeskonnale kui ka paadile. Tugevate tuulte korral võib tahtmatu halsi tulemusena ka mast puruneda. Tahtmatu halssimise ärahoidmiseks kasutatakse poomi otsaga kindlasse asendisse fikseerimist.
  • An accidental jibe happens when the boat is steered or the wind shifts such that the stern of the boat accidentally passes through the eye of the wind. This causes that main boom to swing violently to the other side of the boat. Without proper preparation when jibing, the force of the boom's motion can be destructive, injuring the crew and damaging equipment. In strong winds and on large boats this force can dismast the boat and seriously injure crew members hit by the boom. Sometimes a preventer is used to reduce the possibility of an accidental jibe.
