video

day 1, race 2 (?)

Goal was to win the boat and then cover people left. This is the start and part of a ww leg. Not the most interesting thing to watch so I cut it down a bit. Liked our speed at the start, and really like watching boats slide away to leeward. Its a 170degree lens so it makes boats that are dead abeam look fwd, but otherwise it's pretty sweet for getting a feel for the cross.

Here is a photo of said start: it's funny how lens distort angles on the water. Perhaps it's a good thing video/photo isnt usually involved in the protest room.


We've got more of these, but some are chopped up from the battery dying. I haven't seen day 2 yet, and we've apparently got a full race.
