I was hoping for more instruction on storm sailing techniques. There was only a mention of reefing the main What about drogues or sea anchors or storm sails and how to pick your way through big waves? Nice scenery, though.
congratulations ! this video bring me on this sea 10 years ago and this region is very misterious and fascinating , cape horn is a magic point. Hello from adriatic sea !
This is absolutely fascinating. I am completely amazed and truly intrigued with your drive to push the limits. You have quite the lucky crew. One could only dream of experiencing an adventure such as this. May fair winds and following seas grace your journeys. If you are ever looking for an additional crew member I am more than willing to assist!
I would like to see you having ago at rounding Cape horn in a Southern Winter storm as I have done with a 40ft Trimaran. It's no picnic especially when you can't whether its day or night and you have great watery mountains coming out of nowhere.
I've been in a force 9 - 10 for 3 days and nights and moored in 65 knots of wind. I would consider twice before rounding the horn ! Well done everyone.
Wonderfully shot and narrated. As a fair weather cruising sailor, I'm in awe at what you guys seek out and do. Would like to experience something like this one day. Thank you!
Did the The north sea race from Hull to Ijmuiden a few times.as crew for my then Landlord.Loved it. First time coming back from ijmuiden we missed judged the weather and flipped the ship over , lucky for us it righted it self again me and the helmsman were washed over board, but we had life lines on .but all was ok in the end. Did the race another 3 times , would love to go sailing again.
2:35 That grey vessel on the left...can anyone tell her name or what she is? She looks WW2 or early 1950s era. Beautiful classic lines. And what a dream, to sail with Skip Novak!
Дельфины плывут перед кораблями потому, что принимают корабли за китов. Киты обнаруживают косяки рыбы раньше, чем дельфины, у них мощнее гидролокаторы, которые действуют на более длинных расстояниях. Это моя догадка, я не знаю, что думают по этому поводу биологи. Dolphins swim in front of the ships because they take the ships for whales. Whales find shoals of fish earlier than dolphins, they have more powerful sonars, which operate at longer distances. This is my guess, I do not know what biologists think about behavior of the dolphins.
There is zero talk about storm techniques in this video. It shouldn’t be used to lure tactics and techniques. It should be called, “Pretty footage of people motoring and sailing.”
Great video by Richard Langdon... captures a beautiful, forbidding place and an enviable 'assignment' for you guys! How come Skip doesn't have any grey hairs after 24 seasons Down There?
Storm : no need to go that far, Channel or Irish Sea in Jan. can be as challenging. Technique : absolutely none. Cape Horn : a snapshot. Drake Passage : just a name. Specific weather patterns of the region (i.e.. catabatic winds) : absolutely none. Promise fulfilled as of the title : ZERO % FALSE CLAIMS : 200% Will watch another video from the same : NEVER.
Say "Oh Chit", all passengers and yourself don life vests, Start your engine , ease off all sheets, turn bow into wave, throttle up to full, say prayer, ready the life raft, tie off EPIRB to your belt loop, prepare to abandon if needed. I have never sailed a day in my life but, someday want to. From watching videos, they say to take waves bow first. Definitely, never take a large wave with it on side of boat or behind, I have seen videos of a boat summersaulting.
Rogue wave? You don't seem to understand the concept of a rogue wave.. ...Either way, what gets you usually isn't the waves but the wind, if you're in a sailboat with a ballast keel and not one of those tugboat "yachts" you're almost unsinkable, the crew will give up before the boat. Now hurricane winds however..
Mooring . He uses those lines to moor to the shore with a 3 point mooring system . It’s in one of the other videos in this series . Fascinating to watch how he does it
Skip Novak takes on dangers so fearsome, he keeps the contact info of his insurer right on the hull of his boat, lest he ever need to make a claim. The likes of you, on the other hand, are lucky if you even leave port.
That’s not a storm. Barely a blow. A storm is when the anemometer is pegged and you’ve got a 12’ cross on 50’ swells. Recommended tactic: smoke two joints and then smoke two more. (And run for all you’re worth)
I have a good sailing technique for storms.... Don't do it. I started to be a keen weather watched after a 1974 experience 100 miles west of Patras, Greece.
mnpd3 you are absolutely right. actually the Mediterranean can be the stormiest place to sail in at times. no need to go down to south America if you want exciting sailing. I like the concept of sailing technique for storms ...don't do it. sensible advice

I watch the other video. Skip doesn’t like them they’re dangerous to implement in heavy weather
Yep, 4th reef instead of storm sail.
There is no mention of techniques in this video?
There are 10 videos.
BECAUSE IT SUCKED!!!!!
congratulations ! this video bring me on this sea 10 years ago and this region is very misterious and fascinating , cape horn is a magic point. Hello from adriatic sea !
what the heck. Anticipated technical stuff as what are you doing with the cool looking deck gear?
I wish this video was way longer love seeing skip and his friends sail
I'm digging it so much, it gives me goosebumps. One day it will be my turn to sail Cape Horn.⚓️
Thanks for sharing 👍

Well said and DIDO!!!
Cheers
Rather than techniques this is just the sailing 'elite' saying 'i rounded Cape Horn' na naaa! How many times does she say 'Cape Horn'?
Exactly
Look at the video description, you idiots. "An introductory film on the making of the series". There's 9 more parts after this.
I would like to see you having ago at rounding Cape horn in a Southern Winter storm as I have done with a 40ft Trimaran. It's no picnic especially when you can't whether its day or night and you have great watery mountains coming out of nowhere.
YES WHERE WERE THE TIPS AND TECHNIQUES
The easy way W to E.
I've been in a force 9 - 10 for 3 days and nights and moored in 65 knots of wind. I would consider twice before rounding the horn ! Well done everyone.
Oh - in a 35 foot Warriar Mk III with 2 on board.
Mandy Taylor That sounds like hell.
Yes - it was hell - thankfully only myself and my partner on board - my son (now aged 9) was 9.1 months away !
Wonderfully shot and narrated. As a fair weather cruising sailor, I'm in awe at what you guys seek out and do. Would like to experience something like this one day. Thank you!

have you done it
cape horners ... even the words Kap Horn makes me shiver
"Storm sailing techniques"- find some storms and sail in them.
What about the announced sailing techniques???
fantastic video and music.thank you very much.
2:35 That grey vessel on the left...can anyone tell her name or what she is? She looks WW2 or early 1950s era. Beautiful classic lines. And what a dream, to sail with Skip Novak!

Ypuve got to buy the whole vid3o
I was hoping to learn something from this video (re the Title). It turned out to be some woman's travel log ! and not very interesting at that.
I have sailed an Optimist in 55kt winds in 4.5 meter swells. not many people have done that. :D
sounds wild and rough. I planed inside a harbour at 29 knots.
I wouldn't like to be in an Opti anywhere close to a swell! ;) Nice balls! ;)
Been in the 4 ft swells but not the winds only like 30 knots and that was on my sail in to the bay.
At Cape Horn?
This is nuts !!!!
you want real storm,come to the south pacific in around December and April,you would love it!
I read a cape horn book with skip novak in it
Who cares?
Just an advert. No technical discussions. I liked it, though. More accurate tag-lines, pls.
Merci pour cet bel vidéo
Durban South Africa. 29ft steel hull yacht.. 30ft Rouge wave. heave to or run? lets say its daytime and i have enough time to turn or c it comming.

Now hurricane winds however..
Not a single mention of a storm sailing technique in the entire video.
Like your ship 👍🖐⛵
Nice cutter
Ok so how does that match the title at all? Techniques??
It's a joy to watch God bless you and safe you thank you for the film
What are those spools of line on deck for?
Mooring . He uses those lines to moor to the shore with a 3 point mooring system . It’s in one of the other videos in this series . Fascinating to watch how he does it
Skip Novak takes on dangers so fearsome, he keeps the contact info of his insurer right on the hull of his boat, lest he ever need to make a claim.
The likes of you, on the other hand, are lucky if you even leave port.
I completely missed any storm sailing techniques.
What was the point with no info on tatics or techniques
Somewhat underwhelmed.
1:40 before anything happens. 4:00 and they raise a sail. Average and very sailable conditions at Cape Horn.
How is that Skip Novaks storm tech part 1
"Storm Sailing Techniques" .... 000 techniques discussed..... (-_-;) (clickbate titile)
Jeeeez! I want to sail with Skip! Great video.
Why do this?
Reef N°3 - Little jib ! And after ?...
A Cape Horner is an maritime officer of a commercial sailing ship having rounded Cape Horn. Not many left. They even closed down the club.
do you know who Skip Novak actually is? He's not bullocks. google the name before spouting non sense.
My friend was on Flyer in 1976 Whitbread! Roger Janes do you know him?
Ahh, the joys of fairweather sailing here on Mobile Bay
That’s not a storm. Barely a blow. A storm is when the anemometer is pegged and you’ve got a 12’ cross on 50’ swells. Recommended tactic: smoke two joints and then smoke two more. (And run for all you’re worth)
Not 1 technique shared
Sailing around cape horn doesn't mean flying down there, jaunting around the cape in nice weather and then flying home. Bollocks!
I was hoping to learn something but unfortunately all I saw was an extended advertisement for Pantaenius insurance, shame...
whats the opening music
"Click Bait" not a single "storm sailing technique" in the entire 6:48 video..................:(
Has any sailor circumnavigated along the 60th parallel?
Is it fair to say; you sail through the Cape, not around it
why don’t you call it something that it actually is
Stay in port if theres storm thats the technique
Skip, when R U going to post new videos, of your 77 ft underway? The old videos R boring.
what was the point of this video? Learned nothing about technique of any kind
I will sail around the horn or die trying
This has nothing to do with sailing at all.
I have a good sailing technique for storms.... Don't do it. I started to be a keen weather watched after a 1974 experience 100 miles west of Patras, Greece.
mnpd3 you are absolutely right. actually the Mediterranean can be the stormiest place to sail in at times. no need to go down to south America if you want exciting sailing. I like the concept of sailing technique for storms ...don't do it. sensible advice
Skip v good video you are 100 % right
clickbait
whay is this place so mystic?
This is Cap Horn
Just clickbait. No sailing until 4:00. Sailing done by 6:00. No tips or techniques demonstrated or discussed.
So far nothing about technuques
k cemu se pouzivaji ty spulky se zelenymi lany na palube za steznem?
CLICK-BAIT TITLE.FOR AN UNINSPIIRING UNINFORMATIVE UNFORTUNATE VIDEO!!!!!!!!
The technique was go home by land? You just wasted 7 minutes of my life.
Such BS
Wtf
Nothing about storming techniques in this video.
Fk all on techniques.
OK, I'll skip them.
I like how they stow the anchor but latter while sailing its there tied down.
Soooo many techniques demonstrated 😒
Read the video description. "An introductory film on the making of the series". Rest of the series features the techniques.
Where were the technicians? This was a horrible video without any insight how to properly sail in heavy weather. NOT AS ADVERTISED.
No techniques in the video. Huge disappointment.
Totally pointless video
Next time pick a title that actually fits and you might not catch so much shit
Less drivel and more technique please, these videos are a great concept poorly executed.
Please stop waxing poetic and give actual technique or tips...there are people who are genuinely looking to learn and reduce the chance of dying.
