- AHOY shipmates!! ⛵️
Dan takes on the challenge of his FIRST ever sailing race!!
He is very fortunate to have a fellow club member, a lovely guy called Ed, who kindly offered to give up some free time and help out, even with an injured hand!
In the start of this episode Ed goes through the sailing essentials and how they apply to racing - this is super helpful!
Next the take to the waters; watch as Dan experiences his first ever race, a Winter Pursuit.
How did he get on? DID THEY WIN?

Congrats on your first race! And well done for remembering the 5 essentials 😊
Many thanks 😊
Racing. . . If you haven't broken anything you're not trying hard enough. Love the video guys and love the sailing thank you.
Brilliant! Glad you enjoyed the video, thanks for the comment too. 👍
Brilliant video for anyone new to sailing who fancies a race,
Thanks for the positive feedback 😀
I've never heard of a pursuit sailing race before but it reduces the amount of shouting on a start line. Love those Solos, especially the one with the varnished wooden deck!
We fell in love with that same solo!! Next time, we are going to try and get some more footage of the other boats! ⛵️
In Texas we say "If there's no blood on the deck, you didn't win." Words to keep in mind, Dan. Yaaahrrr! Stay in trouble, mate.
Ha! I like these sayings!! 👌
Well done!!
Thank you!
Nicely done. Sucks to be on the shore but I’m sure there is more sailing ahead and Dan will be the film crew. 🤔
Thanks! To be honest, I (Row) was very happy to be on the shore this time round! But hopefully will be confident to swap roles soon 😀
As a beginner, I think of racing as just a day of supervised sailing. Lots of other folks around and safety boats. Keep it fun and slow and don't worry about it.
Perfectly put 👌
Well done for giving it a go. Racing can be a bit of fun occasionally, but don't let it take over from your more relaxing sailing style.
Best wishes

Thanks, yes, it certainly was more intense than our normal style! 😄
You did great Dan. I'm not sure about your crew though!
🤣
Nice video and some good tips. Ill give racing another try soon, previously i have found it quite stressful !
Great! Totally understand, having Ed on board definitely reduced the potential stress! 😊
@@DanandRow yeah, I think I might start crewing for others for a while !
Good plan!
