At Performance Race Week in 2004 at Tybee, we had big waves and big breeze. I can remember coming off the top of 6-8 footers and getting the entire F18 airborn and slamming into the next wave. It was fun upwind, but downwind we pitchpoled too many times to count...
I remember that week very well! I had a brand new Nacra F18 and was stressed about watching that leeward daggerboard re-enter the water with the boat moving sideways through the air after clearing the top of every wave. What a wild week. Mike taught us a bunch about fast double handed sailing that week.
