Not ideal ; over starboard right through the field ! M Sailing on till there is enough room is maybe better ; less chance on a collision. Besides that it will cost you a lot of speed and places in the field. Best start ; over starboard crossing the field ( right in front) , tracking right on top of the field , and try to maintain your position till the next buoy 👍

My racing days started with my father on a Wayfarer and from there I went to thistles lightenings and ensigns a few dragons and R boats too old sailors on the Great Lakes will know what I’m talking about went to quite a few nationals with one championship a few years later I got my 6 pack then 100 ton, then masters once it’s in your blood it never leaves you might not participate but you can enjoy the raw energy and excitement I remember the around the islands race on Lake Erie we had the right of way and a boat (Cal 25) tried to duck us didn’t quite work for them my dad was at the helm and we knocked their outboard off not on purpose said my dad I still don’t believe him he was a very competitive SOB lol

Ah the irony of missing the mark by 2 boat lengths to leeward being buried at the back of the fleet and still yelling starboard and protest at a bunch of people. Next time find some clear air and concentrate on hitting the layline and getting a clean hoist...

every time you trim in at 1:18 you are violently pushing the tiller back and forth...
@OUTRAGEOUSSAILING Жыл бұрын
Yeah, from the clip and what i remember, while i was trimming, the tiller was going from centerline to leeward. We were traveling at such a low speed at that exact moment i believe i was trying to bring the bow up at i was trimming in coming up below the boat on the inside. And once i got the bow moving i commited to a nice even round up and accelerated out 😅

As a former J24 World Champion I know that the further back the Fleet you are, the more useless the sailors and random the rule observance. The GBR boat came up on Port with no rights on the inside Boat. The sandwiched mouthy bearded wonder had no idea and should have called much earlier. Mr Shouty also had 3 crew in the Genoa slots after rounding when 2 should be below deck . Generally and comprehensively useless....
@OUTRAGEOUSSAILING3 жыл бұрын
Bearded Wonders* and idk about you but it seemed to me that we had the best escape from that rounding. Also I did not get fouled nor fouled anyone. I defended my position. And if you were on a former World Champion crew you would know that the front of the pack is much more aggressive, and just as loud as the back of the pack

@@OUTRAGEOUSSAILING It's super common to end up "yelling" at people at leeward mark roundings. It's all part of the game and no hard feelings (usually) once you get off the water. These people commenting have no idea.

@@blinginlike3p0 Yeah I totally understand where they're coming from though. The thing is that the atmosphere at a regatta like this is totally different from normal racing so tensions will get high.

@OUTRAGEOUSSAILING2 жыл бұрын
Hey Luis! So, in this situation there are 2 reasons I still had my trimmer to leeward. 1) so he can call out boats and positions below us and 2) If I needed to accelerate quickly I could snap the main and the whole boat would lurch forward half a boat length to secure a position... Once we were established it was weight up and go!

@OUTRAGEOUSSAILING3 жыл бұрын
While I broadly agree, in some situations in order to remain competitive (especially at a World Championship event) you have to defend your position when you know you have rights. While I was speaking loud and yelled once or twice I did not spew profanities nor did I bully anyone on the course (I even said please multiple times😅). I defended my position to the best of my ability and did not foul anyone on the rounding. Also, coming into a leeward gate with 15 boats at the same time in a very competitive fleet is incredibly stressful. As you can hear I wasn't the only skipper voicing his opinion 🤣
