Wow, that was pretty shit! Starting in the wrong end and not able to come to the line in time or near the committee boat. And then ... "Starboard .. Starboard!" ... (other boat:) "I'm on starboard" .. "oh right.. My bad" ... Well absolute beginners here.. But, having fun..
Do you feel better now? More superior to others who have the courage to share (and not edit out) their learning journey? Note also that any mistakes were owned immediately. Will you be as ready to own your bullying comment?
@@fargarden I feel fantastic. Thanks for asking. 100% factual what I write, it is you who choose to be offended on their behalf. Feeling superior at racing? Hell yes, as I have raced all my life in several classes - some at world elite level. Feeling superior at anything else - nope, don't have the background to do that. There is no insult in labelling someone a beginner, if you are not aware of it - when they very clearly are. Its just racing, snowflake! Have a great day, and try not to get your knickers in a twist.
That right shift at the top of the last windward leg, and your gybe set to take the shift downwind on the last leg gained you 6 places! Good eyes!
@@plnwtn thanks. All weekend we took gybe sets to get away from the fleet. Sometimes they weren’t right, but this one was spot on.
It was great seeing you guys at the Glow, Yes the shifts were friggin crazy the first day!
17:33 is pretty fun!
😎
Yeah, confusion set in. Had I not gotten confused we probably would have placed better. More coffee, less beer.😅
Really enjoyable race and great recovery. One minor suggestion - maybe leave the final result out of the video description - it's a bit of a spoiler 😉
Excellent point! Thanks for the suggestion!
