WTF, as an example of the importance of tacking on headers you show a boat that got a lift the other boat on the same tack didn't get, which put them102M ahead. At that point you say it gets interesting when the guy ahead starts tacking in the headers to increase his lead when in fact the guy who takes the flyer to the right shrinks the lead to 72M when the "playing the shifts" boat rounds the mark. Yet it is stated that the lead increases to 115M by the time the flyer boat gets to the mark, which is because the lead boat was going downwind while it was still sailing upwind. And all the while the video gets edited to hide the fact this is a poor example.

Could the authors comment on how to show up and run the 1st leg when the course is posted only a few minutes before the start? Is there ever a race in which you have not sailed the 1st leg before the start, or can you clarify whether you are testing the 1st leg vs running the entire leg to the mark every single time?

The Raceqs app stopped working in may 2023. At least here in Denmark. Have tryed to contact Raceqs for a long time without succses. We are many sailors that would be happy for any info or reply

I really really appreciate your videos. Such good effort. Honestly the interactivity makes it far easier to understand than many videos, even if they are more technical.

Probably not the best c420 tactic... It requires too much time for the short upwind legs.

Did you put in a protest?

This is very cool. Pitty you are no longer updating your app.

In my opinion, the essence of sailing is to use judgement only to determine time and distance, not fancy tools …

i thought that was very helpful. ty

What!? They did not need mark room. They were leeward boat and ROW (right of way) boat according to R11...

Nice! Well explained! It is like wizardry... but one day... I will be able to call that Puff with confidence.

Your next lesson should be about tacking too close.

Hey, I used to always hunt for nice flying telltales in the front sail both sides of it. But always noticed my windward pointing was so bad compared to others. Now maybe it's time to shift gear.

You have an excellent teaching model, here on 'Race to win'. We appreciate your downloads.

This is great! Why are there so few following this? Thanks so much

Very good but picture is too small.

Good I figured it out but couldn't find any of the numbers mentioned

Isn’t this kind of a dick move if you’re not fighting for the top few spots?

Has anyone been able to get the app? When I follow the instructions, Garmin comes up and the Pebble watch (or Pebble Watch 2) is not one of the supported watches. This looks like a dynamite app and watch combo...but. without a working watch and non-existent app, it's a non-starter. Help!

Sally can stay at home the watch can sail the boat.

Scarlet is the blue boat? Fantastic info despite my pedantic comment.

I would like somebody to tell me where in the 2017-2020 rule book it says “boat lengths” - It doesn’t, the correct turn is “hull lengths” as boat lengths refers to the hull and all equipment attached to it (bowsprit) - this would change the outcome of the protest

Great series. I really enjoy the way Julia extracts the useful information from Will. Keep it up guys.

Thank you... important info taught in clear and innovative way that makes it easier to retain.

when i started..........i always sailed up and down from the start line 40 minutes be fore the start ...... so point is left and right shifts..............say at the gun it is on the right..........boats stacked at the commitee boat end............but i would always start at the leeward end....... because i know i will be the first into the LH shift and visa versa of course you have to be on the line a clean..... but sailinginto the fist shift always worked for me

Clever I enjoyed the theory.

This was funny and informative.

been using the internet for going on 30 years now and have no idea what a "pod cast" is and how is different then from just plain audio mp3 or flac audio. god apple is a cancer to the computer industry

Thanks for the fantastic videos. I'm an experienced sailor (45+ years), I've always been a cruiser. Now I'm getting into racing the Sunfish, which I have sailed since I was 12. So I know the sailing part, but the racing is brand new. Your videos are excellent. Please keep it up. I will start a new 10 week series in 2 days, and I am bringing your RaceQs app with me.

Hello, how do you get the realtime display on the right side of the screen. I can only seem to get a static display of course, speed, and vmg when I carefully click on my track. thx

Really informative!!!

Your videos are really interesting! Have you public any book explaining the tactics you show in "race to win sailing podcast"?

Why does the sailboat goes faster when is in the green zone from another sailboat?

Best description of leverage I've ever heard.

First

Found the bottom a few times myself. I love this story, haven't laughed this hard in a long time!

Obviously they need to switch to Apple Watch?

best strategy 10/10

Thanks for the videos! I've got a question for you. When the wind seems relatively steady across the course (e.g., starboard favoured) at the start, do you recommend starting off by sailing into a header or into a lift? In his series on NS14 racing (TH-cam) Peter V argues for beginning with the knock, but doesn't elaborate. I understand that if the wind is extremely steady, mirror-image paths to the mark should be equivalent. However, I would expect that one should start by sailing on the favoured side of the wind, *in case* there's a significant wind shift to the opposite tack as one proceeds up the course. (Of course, I'm thinking right now more in terms of macro-shifts, also recognizing that frequent tacking on micro-shifts may also be necessary.) Your thoughts? thanks,

5% slower, 13% less distance, 8% less time.

"India…has a really nice tight spread"… so that's why s/he's behind both kilo and Lima with wider spreads? Rather s/he's got a tight spread because s/he's failing to capitalizing on the shifts that are putting kilo and Lima ahead. Not to discount consistency, but I'm not looking to consistently finish 3rd: I think you are reading too much into this.

Nice video, very useful for a beginner like me. Thanks

What do you use to record data from a regatta like this? Does Outteridge have his iPhone in his pocket? I'm honestly curious. Thanks!

Interesting

need this for Samsung gear s3. I mean Need....

I use the app everytime..but lately there are some prblems... and it should be fantastic to see it live!

todos los videos estan buenísimos ! pongan en español !!!!! gracias

spanish plase !!!!! gracias!!!!!!!
