Close call at 0:57

Ah yes, the old letter drop. Send it over the boom and down the companionway. Nice dry an tidy for repacking....as long as nothing along the way to tear the kite.

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊

Thank you for sharing Ryan, It's nice seeing something beautiful after dealing with 2 days of snow storms. The music is perfect for it 😊

What a fantastic view ! Riding racing yacht is my dream. Hope have chance once in life time !!!!!!😢😮😊

Whats the length and designer of this boat?

Did I count 8 people on the boat?

how to NOT set an asym

The last thing I wanna do is experience a gybe broach.

Using a symmetrical spinnaker as a symmetrical spinnaker 🤦‍♂️

I see. Just seen this boat was for sale now.

The video shows nothing. I suggest you change the title. Lol

The gorgeous Thelma. She will be racing again this summer with her new mast! Whoop whoop!

That's Innismara, in Auckland, New Zealand. Known as "The pencil" as she is so long and slender.

If that woman is on deck. WHO is making the sandwiches 🤔

I currently have an overlapping gyb (155%) and a much smaller non overlapping heavy air (#3) gyb. I also have 3 Asymetrical Sails, A1.5, A2 and an A3 for reaching and "running". I am considering removing my overlapping gyb from my arsenal and adding a Code Zero. I already have a 3 foot bowsprit where I tack my A-Syms from. I wuld use this configuration only for long distance sail racing (Bayview Mackinac Races - 300 miles) in the ORC. I think it would be benefit my credit, but also keep the full alresnal of sail to be utalized for all points of sail. Thoughts???

Wrong end of the line though ... all you did was start on time which is pretty basic seeing the type of equipment you are using (I.e.: You are not a beginner).

The squared off mainsail reminds me of the Mk.V Spitfire with clipped wings, a late wartime modification. It seemed sacrilege from an aesthetic pov but outperformed its elliptical counterpart Mk.Vs. Similar story here perhaps.

Hard Wired!

I learnt and call it “hymns book”, seile salmebok in Norwegian. Still do, although there is an official technical name for it.

Racing sailors: Note the spinnaker trimmer doesn't pay attention to the curl of the sail. Note the spinnaker trimmer doesn't actively trim the sail.

Ups

Close quarters is fun

The best lesson in this video is the demonstrating the penalty for a late spinnaker takedown!

Your videos have a lot of downwind starts - here in the Great Lakes we start upwind; am i missing something?

Were you 10th across the line? Is this a port-to-port race?

How not to

What type of boat?

P r o m o S M 🍀

Playing follow the leader 🤔

“People”: what’s your favorite sport? Me: This☝🏿 Should have more views than this!

Awesome

Good to see you back Ryan, I hope you had a good time away. Missed your content. It's my winter during your sailing months. Only -33 with the wind.

Nice sailing ⛵️ 👌🏾

Is that an Islander? My family lived on a islander 33 in California in the late 70s . Love your boat

grrat shots on that 360°.... :) ( sitting way to forward on that rail ? )

Get the lazy guys in the windward rail, first.

that was a classic Chinese jibe, the boom was just toggled over, not guided through, as it should have been, more risk of throwing a crew overboard, or giving them a concussion.

good video, but did I see right, that at 1:40 the guy in the red suit was pulling the leach in before the tack was fixed and halyard tension re-established?, he should have waited for the blue suit to say "finished", then tensioned the rear of the sail, as isn't this how you rip the main, doing a reef this way??

Gran canción, gran ceñida

I want to see how he drop it

Wie wunderschön ❤❤❤❤❤

If you’re one of the slower boats in a mixed fleet. Consider a port tack start and take the lift off the back of the starboard tack boats. It gets you into cleaner air quicker and you also don’t get pinned and exhausted by the starboard tack boats. If you’re unable to point as high as most of the fleet, but have good boat speed, start at the port end on starboard. If there’s no-one to leeward of you, you can sail your fastest course without being squeezed.

Where is this Auckland?

that's a tack, not a jibe.

I don't see any flags flying in the boat , class verification.. so my guess is practicing..not an actual race

Is this waitamata Harbour

So elegant!!!
