Which statement(s) is(are) TRUE regarding heaving-to?

Correct Answer: Option A — A yawl will heave to with her jib aback, main sheet eased, and her mizzen sheeted in.

A yawl heaves-to effectively by backing the jib to push the bow away from the wind, easing the main to spill power, and sheeting the mizzen flat to pull the stern up, creating a balanced, stationary equilibrium in heavy weather.
