Gabrielle, Love the view from the peak! great way to see your sail shape. If you can I would love to see the downhaul adjustments and the effect on the sail from the view of the Peak. While pointing, while reaching - hard set downhaul, soft set... the video will tell so much! Best wishes with Wax Wing and get in touch if you want to sell her! Rob
In all these past years I never came across this delightful video of Waxwing. For a minute there I thought it might be John himself playing until I saw the credits. Wonderful! Stay safe! I know that something new and exciting is taking shape in your garage.
Brilliant! You've inspired me to try lashing my GoPro to the sprit on my Melonseed. Excellent music. If Roger Barnes ever saw this video, I think he'd ship avel dro over to your sailing ground for a new adventure.
@@robmarykunzig5533 Thanks ... I have a couple of autumn rowing and sailing videos in the pipeline. Also, I purchased Roger Barnes’ book The Dinghy Cruising Companion ... should make for an interesting read over the winter.
@@GrenvilleMelonseedSkiff496 His youtube channel is pretty great. I'd love to replicate his life there, over here. The Ilur gives me the chance to deal with 2, 3 and maybe 4' seas... making a long journey possible. Simple rig that can be comfortably reefed anywhere anytime. Stay Well John
This just popped up on my youtube list. Excellent! Great music, too! Thanks, Gabby!
