Quite incredible that on a boat like that someone has to climb to the end of the pole to trip the spinaker

...another scale :) Wow !

This is exhilarating and spectacular …as an aged sailor and now cruising have to say the mundane mantra of being tied on when on deck ????…no evidence of that …complicates flexibility and agility????

So, like, um, this is insane.

It was hard enough to do it on our 8m 'Amita', can't think of doing it on a 'J '

Well sure. Everything looks easy when you know what youre doing. Seriously though, pretty clear its not quite ready for prime time having watched the whole vid. Cool session!

Them are huge

I wonder how long it took the sailmaker to sew that jib ? Seems like about 17 kms of stitching in some pretty hefty sailcloth.

Popping the POLE was always a wild ride --- This is Real Sailboat Racing --Real Seamanship... Not sitting in a pit riding a Bike and close or broad Reaching

To je život!!! A nebo můžeš dělat z lidí curaky, cpat jim do života kurvy, vyprávět, že jsi mafián, krást děti, potom bejt celej posranej strachy, že jsis vybral špatnýho hajzla a praskat na fizlech!!! Vy jste si svůj život vybrali.... Nás nic nespojuje... Jste ostuda společnosti...

Fricking awesome! Great work

On the "Spike" the pole hit the point-man pretty hard in the face. Perhaps more foreguy would have prevented that.

Too much palaver, too much 'chute in the water. Plus I'd hate to be the guy who has to go down and pack that sail.

No life vests, very stupid..

They do not know how dangerous this. Without sea railing, Without sea lines, Without sea lifejacket.

I love the old school match racing compare to the newer foiling boat that relies on mechanical hydraulics and rigid sails. In the older traditional boat, the coordination of the crew makes a big difference especially when the performances of the boats are closely matched.

Nice work.

Just me, or did that seem incredibly dangerous?😳

Без рэлингов, без спасательных желетов, не пристёгнутые. Они не ценят свои жизни...

Żenada!

BRAVOOO

Pedazo velamen...

that's cool!

why is there no Guard rail?, or life jackets/Harnesses worn, just asking for a man overboard!!, probbably don't have insurance, either, as if they saw this, be uninsurable instantly.

Hilarious to see a J class yacht with modern electronic instruments.

Parabens. Congratulations

God grant me the good fortune, To not be thrown into the ocean. Though monkey I must sometimes be, And climb the shrouds to set the spinnaker free. And work on deck without a PFD. There's no stanchion or rail to save my hide And stop me sliding over the side When the helmsman does a Chinese gybe!

Notice the winch handle is missing from the sausage bag tie where it got stashed, I'm betting it went down the hatch with the spinn.

Who is the guy that climbs the rigging? Nutter or what? No wonder they need a crew of 30, I assume no more than 10 or 12 make it back!

Pole up!

*A high quality professional grade range==**allmy.tips/ZLINE_Range?89K ** Relatively easy to install, a joy to cook and bake with. Looks fantastic in my kitchen.*

I reckon there's a 50% time save available in that routine.....

NO life jacket whatsoever... for me is ok

any videos of the Czech Cycling tour plse or any other? Kind regards

Not a rail or harness in sight ( not counting bosun "Big balls monkey boy"). No helmets either ! Screw those America's cup guys. This more like real man racing.

Ok các ban thật tuyệt voi cam on các ban chức các ban một ngay thật đẹp

Spinnaker is a headache, even if everything goes right

I rarely post reviews but the atrocious design of their beloved Thermocoupler and even worse support from Bertazzoni themselves pushes me to WARN ANYONE THINKING ABOUT PURCHASING A BERTAZZONI RANGE!!! We recently replaced that ridiculous Thermocoupler for the FOUTH TIME in just under 6 years. The only time Bertazzoni covered it was the first, when the range was only 6 months old. If this had been a car, the "lemon laws" would have gotten me out of this piece of junk. But it's a range so, no such luck. Bertazonni is fully aware of the unreliability of the Thermocoupler but refuses to spend the money to design (or purchase) an ignition system that actually works. They know that they will probably only have to pay to replace one Thermocoupler under warranty while we, on the other hand, are on the hook for all the rest for the life of the range. Between the initial cost of the range (which is very high!), the 500% markup on the piece itself (no "generics" made) and the kick backs from service reps for referrals on replacing these pieces, there is no financial incentive to make a change. And there is obviously no pride of workmanship or ownership in the company or issues like this would have been changed YEARS ago!!! I can only humbly suggest you think long and hard about that pretty, Bertazzoni range you may be considering. At first blush, it looks like it would make an amazing focal point in your kitchen...just the thing to make you look like a Top Chef! But do yourself a huge favor and Google this issue yourself. You will be shocked to see just how many people have experienced not only the same problem with getting their ovens to light at all AND/OR the problem having the oven light initially but not stay lit, but the same LACK of support and assistance from Bertazonni. If you have the money for a Bertazonni, I guarantee you can find at least a half dozen choices of beautiful ranges that work! Cheers!

I have had the same problem with my range since the day we bought it! The "special part" responsible for the problem has been replaced 3 separate times over the last 5 years and now it's doing it again. If I could, I'd pick it up and throw it out the door and let it be someone else's problem. For the amount of money we paid for this thing one would think it would work. An oven is not the most complicated thing in the world. They look nice but do yourself a favor and NEVER buy one! Yes, John the broiler lights fine in mine as well. A big pile of stainless steel JUNK!

I think a float drop in behind the leech of the headsail would be much easier to manage on such a large boat, but that's just me.

Fricking clueless amateurs. I couldn't make it past 90sec. that "crew work" is so bad.

little bit of shrimpin' but very game and able bowmen.

Holy crap.

Very impressiv! Good Work.

I say again, dear smartasses, you cannot distinguish a Laser form a J Class. You are obviously unexperienced to sailing. But I can understand you, by applauding any shit the media and public opinion offers you. Many people do so. Better to be somewhat critical by not agreeing with the dangerous situation aboard the big vessel. Or are you still on the Somalia level ?

Seriously these things are garbage, after spending 400+ on tech help and the parts they recommend, nothing works.

Ours just started doing this, purchased 5 years ago, 11/2010. The oven lights for a second and shuts off then will no longer light at all. The broiler works fine and all the burners work fine. Anybody find a solution? Sounds like I may be out of luck of it is a thermocoupler if they no longer make the part.

My bertazoni is just over 1 year old and has started doing this .They are a piece of crap DO NOT buy one. in my opinion .Also the slightest bit of water on the top burners and they fai to light too.

old video, but for future reference. I had the same problem, it was due to the lightning thingy at the bottom of the oven, the thing creating the spark. The cable was cut where it gets within the oven, at the bottom, probably from heat. I had to order a new one, open all the panels, replace this cable/lighter, and everything went to normal. took me a bit over an hour as opening the panels is a real pain.

not very well done must of had half of the crew on the bow.
