Hi all,

even the best can end up bow down and showing their rudders check this Video Link http://youtu.be/dy05PO67QmI wink

Makes me feel much better about that photo sequence from the Vic Cat Champs, mind you his rig didn't fall down blush

That was amazing sailing, big gusts coming from no where meant a few other classes didn't go on the water. In the Nacra 17 race the other two leading 17's went over so they doused their spinnaker to finish and take gold. Good add for the Nacra 17 to be able to stuff bows in 30kt gusts and recover like that, do I want one sht yeah
