There has been just sooo much general discussion and so little about actually improving your own game lately..


It's still winter over here, and I am reading up on races and regattas, trying to find new ideas and information for the coming season. I see that many positions are lost in the start and after tacking/gybeing. Most of these descriptions of these situations claim that failure to accelerate was their downfall.

So, what do you do to accelerate after a tack, a jibe and in the start?
