The coverage was amazing! Live cam all the way around. Hope some of the highlights are saved and made into a video.

Who was sailing the second M20 with Kristian, his girlfriend?

That is amazing. I noticed that she was helming while Kristian did all the trimming.

Results service was excellent as well. And having the video feed full-screen at decent resolution all the time, just fantastic. Next thing is full-time tracking of all boats I suppose <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

FANTASTIC! Just tuned in in time for the finish and trophy presentation! That girl is very attractive and a hell of a sailor!

I'm so envious, nothing like this in the USA! <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Calling all Geeks: I have a fairly new Dell computer that doesn't play many online videos. I get the message: "Additional Plugin Needed". I have Windows media player, Quicktime, Real Player, and whatever waas recomended last time I brought this up. I can't play the vids, and can't get the "Additional Plugin" either! What's wrong? Thanks, Brian

Just saw some recorded footage...I am just blown away by the level of professionalism in organizing this race

You can tell sailing is something that really lives in the hearts and minds of the Dutch people...Something to be very proud of.

The coverage at least made me want to go there. But not with the Tornado (too high rating). Wouter and Tony, if I come down all the way from Norway, will you do the race?
85km sounds like a nice distance, if there is wind.. Has it ever been cancelled or shortened?


Brian: Your problem might have several causes. The first thing to do is install Firefox and VLC (Maughan, watch the blood pressure) <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
When you come to a page with a video that will not play, the error message is usually clear at the top of the browser window. I find it easier to isolate errors in Firefox than IE..
