J24 Spinnaker Battle

Spinnaker race between two J24 sailboats for first place.

That's some damn good spin work and steering. Nicely done.

Hi Magellan In Air. Great video to watch - I like the full on tactics, not so much the defence by the other team though ;-) Would you mind if I use your video for instruction on tactics? Please reach out when you read this. Thanks in advance

Hard to watch as the 'victim' boat in this downwind battlebut good video; thanks for posting.

[@dylanrico]

Nice. Been in both situations many a time

[@arvins.713]

If I were the other boat I would have luffed up though. Racers were chill that day I guess :)

Good crew!

Love the bug at 1:22

Why is it downwind it seems like no one ever actively trims their mainsail????? It is not a Barndoor.....it should be a working part of the drive system Great tactis BTW!

[@LanceRyley]

couldn't add much main because the crew wasn't actively hiking the boat flat. Otherwise this would have been over the top and never see them again. It seemed like mr. orange kite was holding on pretty nicely despite getting blanketed.
