MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
This is what its all about:
Still gives me goosebumps watching that. Its what I aspire to.
Was anyone else expecting this?
While I'd love a go on a big racer like that, this is more my bag;
Not me, BTW, but fast cats and Lasers are where it's at for me.
Oh, and Merlin Rockets and Salcombe Yawls of course.
Oh, and big open ocean cruising yachts as well. With a decent selection of vintage wine!
Moths look fun.
Dinghies are too tippy for me. Small catamarans are a bit frantic, tried a dart16 but not my thing. Open ocean racing is where its at.
Nah, you need to see [url=
for some REAL speed![/url]
Oh, and there's this - [url=

i got into this boat racing lark in a big way at one point
little known fact
compositepro designed boats at one point...well did the composites on em
i still believe one of them holds the volvo ocean race record and won it oh and the other came second....
confidence in abilities shocker was when a main spar snapped on an americas cup boat...however that was ultimately down to shoddy argentinian workmanship
Ha, Captain... both of those videos are in my favorite list. Hydroptere is a proper boat, not a fragile freakazoid like sailrocket and just as fast.
Incidentally, this is who I work for...
I am one of three engineers who travel round the world and maintain these boats. Sail them too.
No, this is what it's all about!
All sorts of good stuff, but 7:00 is for psychle 🙂
All sailing is awesome. I miss it dearly. I'm still pondering a fast cat when money allows.
Any sailing's good - one design racing is always good, doesn't matter what - two wheelie bins and a sail as long as its one rule for all.
Too many years trying to work out handicaps in 'other' classes and big yachts.
This was my class

nothing wrong with a capsize, means you're pushing it to the edge, sometimes you fall off 😀 Flattered you thought of me aracer 8)
Ahhhh...just realised the gaff... so we (being the Aussie sailors) capsized on the finish line and the Pommy team won 🙄 How about this for a tally up [url=
best ever gold medal!!![/url]
though, I don't think we beat a Pom to the line in this case...
