What is a Sailboat Race? ...for Non-Sailors

[@sailing_mahalo]

Also important to note, anytime there is more than one sailboat near each other, it's a race!! Great video as usual!

[@johnkauffman7415]

Even if one skipper doesn't know it.

[@StealthyDrake12]

Even if it’s on a lake with NO wind 😂

[@wilder9835]

like the way you introduce the sailboat race! how cute

[@billkinirons8253]

Our yacht club just hosted the 2022 Melges 24 World Championship with thirty-one Melges teams racing and all I knew was it made parking harder and slowed down bar service. Thanks for this!

[@CaptainBoomies]

You are exactly the person for whom I needed to make this video! Also I'm extremely jealous of your club. That sounds so freaking cool!!!

[@billkinirons8253]

@@CaptainBoomies next time you're here for flibs offer still stands come by and bring your crew

[@maryannfassula2511]

Awesome explanation of sailboat racing, entertaining and informative! So excited for your upcoming race! And you may have called them the evil race committee, but I saw that twinkle in your eye!

[@CaptainBoomies]

Absolute power corrupts absolutely.... But yes, I'm mostly just having fun on the committee boat, not a whole lot of evil to get up to.

[@Jessie_Graff]

Finally someone saying the “fun” part of sailing on what’s making it interesting in racing!!

[@corycollier]

I beg to differ, you're not doing good stuff. You're doing AMAZING stuff. Half-way through binge-watching your channel and am not only subbed...but hooked ♥

[@Ed-ip2sg]

Thanks for this, I hope you win and the rum looks great.

[@dutchglobetrotter4513]

Boomies you are awesome in explaining the ridiculous racing rules.

[@CaptainBoomies]

It is an odd sport. haha

[@dutchglobetrotter4513]

@@CaptainBoomies I did some regatta's on an Oyster 56, it sure gets interesting when the the boats are 1 million dollar plus. The no touching rule is very stringent on those races.

When did the first sailboat race happen? ... Shortly after they built the second sailboat.

[@confidencesailing]

Awesome jacket and scarf Capn B. I’m already looking forward to watching your adventure from the comfort of an armchair and a tot of rum

[@CaptainBoomies]

I'm always on the hunt for fab nautical garb. This one was a special find!

[@empathyworks8890]

I recently bought a Yacht-master 2 (which has a Regatta Timer on it). I just learned what a Regatta is today. I just learned that a yacht has to be over 40ft long to be a yacht......today.

[@mattriggs6755]

Fudge yeah, Cap’n! I’m so jealous. 😎

[@CaptainBoomies]

Mwaaaahaaahaaaa! I keep pinching myself to make sure it's all real.

Well, ahoy there, sailor! Thanks! This came on a great day, not sure how I missed it earlier, but I need the ego boost today

[@jeffreywettig5302]

Bing Bong, Bing Bong.... So where does one get such a jacket like that,🤔😜😜

[@CaptainBoomies]

Just wait until you see my sequin commodore's jacket!... I have a problem.

I am here because I want to understand about all those useless functionalitites of a rolex Yachat master 2

[@CaptainBoomies]

You mean you don't need to constantly count down from 5 minutes and know what the tides are? hahaha... I want a rolex. sigh 🤑

[@ragoonsgg589]

Can you just, idk, tell me what a sailboat race is? Without the sass? God almighty.

[@Madfrogs123]

Maybe if you actually listened to what she was saying instead of being sexist, you'd learn something. She did a great job, this was entertaining, informative and funny.

[@ragoonsgg589]

@@Madfrogs123 I wasn't talking to you, woman. Sit the fuck down.

[@joeypierantonis7576]

Do you think this is funny? My father was a committee boat. He died for his country.

[@v0w1x2]

Never seen a “sailboat”, plenty of dinghies, skiffs, cutters, yachts even

[@CaptainBoomies]

If those are wind powered, I would call them "sailboats"... This is a confusing comment.

[@johnconlon9652]

American humour and near incomprehensible language. Nuff said.

[@CaptainBoomies]

I bet you're a lot of fun at parties.
