2024 DIYC Flying Scot Race 3 Windward Mark Rounding Cluster

2024 Flying Scot Davis Island Regatta Race 3 First Windward Mark:
A series of boats arrived at the windward mark all at the same time. A cluster ensued. Two boats got stuck in irons and caused a cascade of boats being stopped at the mark. The 360 camera allows us to see what each boat did to get out of it. An animation is provided at the end of the video that traces each boat's trajectory. Although it's 15 minutes long, I learned a lot going through a frame-by-frame analysis of the event. No boat is isolated as a root cause for this event.

Great work! Lots of effort! Much appreciated... Hmmm.. No protest?? I didn't see anyone taking a penalty????

there's a lot of effort put into this video! Nice work. My takeaway: defensive driving, baby!
