Absolute glass! This is cool. i would be fuming and pissed that i was drifting in 2kts of wind...they are flying a hull.



This video has been discussed before and the conclusion was that there was more than the usual wind speed variation between water surface and higher up, probably due to unusual water-air temperature gradient.

In other words, even if there“s virtually no wind near the water surface, the sails are seeing more than 2 knots wind.
