[@matiasmartin6375]

Best ILCA sailor of all time 🥇🏆

[@zacksails]

Lot of thought put into everything 👍

[@hamiltonbarclay]

Always

[@יהבגבע]

thank's on the explanations they helped me alot and I have one question why do you put your kanighem in the left side of the sail

[@hamiltonbarclay]

It’s really a preference thing, I like the fact that i can pull the primary line on the cunningham when i round the whether mark. Doing that gives me an easy way to ease it out all the way.

[@logarithmic4679]

Nice explanation, thanks

[@squires_sailing]

Great video! 👏

[@hamiltonbarclay]

Thank you!

[@charlesbarclay589]

Notice you have a the vang secondary dead ended into the Harken, effectively taking a purchase out of your vang.

[@NicolòSacco-k4l]

Very nice setup but I don't understand how do you lock the strap's rope.

[@vicentestevens5638]

Great setup!! Do you have sponsorships or you pay everithing by your own? How do you finance all that?

[@cliveshirleyhumphris1380]

I see you are also using the Ronstan vang - how would you compare it to the Harken vang?

[@hamiltonbarclay]

Love it, the Ronstan takes the fairlead out which takes a bit of friction out of the system.

[@maxrott3345]

Very nice setup! :) I see that you also have a bit of slack on your vang that i assume you tie down on the rudderboard. Would you mind telling me how long you have this slack? I do the same but I seem to be struggling to find the right length for it. It is always either too long and in the way or it is to short and hinders my sheeting....

[@hamiltonbarclay]

Good catch. Although I did not mention it in the video, I like enough slack to be able to reach the vang from my upwind hiking position. For me that extra length is probably around 3 feet. It’s a personal preference thing though.

[@ΗλίαςΑλέξιοςΚυριακόπουλος]

What carbon tiller and tiller extension you think is the best

[@hamiltonbarclay]

I use the e6 tiller and the rooster tiller extension

[@ΗλίαςΑλέξιοςΚυριακόπουλος]

Thanks bro

[@slushxr357]

What brand is your life jacket?

[@hamiltonbarclay]

Nob vela flex 2

[@slushxr357]

Is it coast guard approved?

[@chadrew6]

Do people still not use a Main sheet cleat in the laser class? I never understood that? Is it illegal? What the hell is the problem?

[@hamiltonbarclay]

They’re a pain in the ass(literally) and once you’re technically proficient enough in the boat there’s no need for them.
