Storming Onto The Scene - OnCourse Ep21

At one end carbon rocket ships, at the other 100 year old classics - Two extremes that couldn’t be further apart. But in the middle of the summer season, two ends of the sport that were united by close tactical racing on a world famous stretch of water.
Cowes Week is special and every year this seven day event delivers stories aplenty. So here are some of our favourites, from the spectacular rise of a rocket ship class, to how to create a winning machine for just £1,000.
