faster, because I don't turn down the mast of the boat :-)

I wish the cameraperson pointed at the sail to see the change more...

Nice...I'm looking into moving to a single handed dinghy after years sailing two handed. I'm 5ft tall, 60kg and thinking a rig 5 and 6 would probably work best for me.

Nice guidance.

I have a new aero and I cant even put the mast together in 10 minutes 😢

You videos are awesome. I hope you can find the energy to do more technical Aero videos. Maybe with a chase boat and microphone.

next time - take the 9

Did you sell the Q5?

Hi Marc You seem to have a lot of Cunningham on, is that what you’d recommend for F4/5? Cheers Peter

She’s a keeper. I have the same spec and year. Averaged 20k+ miles per year. Just hit that 120k mile break in. Flawless.

This is so great to see how many folks are traveling quite some distance to sail at the club, and also how many people have come from around the world to CPYC!

Thanks

Happy to get all the info...;I am planning to buy an Aero and now I know what is for what and when....Thank You for sharing your knowledge with us!!

Wonderful!

Welcome back Come to visit the best Sailing club in Rome One aero always ressa for you!

Go Marc!

Good to see you back on the water Marc

Wonderful!

carpe diem ... get healthy

Glad you have recovered. Fair winds!

Onya Mate!! So, so good to see you out there "getting wet" X

Good to see You in the water Marc

Thanks Marc! It is worth noting that a brand new halyard rope is likely to slip a little through the cleat under dowbhaul load on its first outing before it wears a little. If necessary (e.g. an important race) you can avoid this by roughening it up a little with some sandpaper first.

If you use a larkshead to attach the spectra loop on the mast to the shackle you increase the throw still more :)

Thanks Marc! Be well!

Yes, nice job keeping it flat. Hardly any luffing.

thx again

Really like the tiller centreing shock cord idea....also works on my Finn...for all the same reasons! Thanks Marc!

So annoying to glance up and see it has slipped! Great tip Marc. Set-that-fish.

One additional tip is to make sure all the slack is out of your halyard knot in two ways: by pulling the knot as tight as possible before hoisting the sail and then, after hoisting and pulling the downhaul on (as Marc shows in the video), dropping slightly, re-hoisting, and re-setting the line in the cleat. This will make sure the knot is as tight as possible and the line is in the cleat as tightly as possible.

Plenty in this....obviously hiking hard, but the constant sheet trim and aggressive wave steering are critical to keeping the boat driving forward flat and fast...nice one Marc!!

yep...a lot going on and it's all good! I love these timely reminders...Tack, Gybes...& Roundings...the basics are SO important to get right consistently. Nice one mate !!

Nice! Thanks for the annotations Marc. Do you always do a weed dump pre-rounding, or did you suspect some had accumulated?

hey Marc, where the cunningham uphauler red bungee cord attached to on the mast?

What cover and boat dolly are you using?

Hi Marc, Great video. How and where did you mount the camera?

Amazing Video! Thanks for the explanation.

Nice hat.

Love a cheeky port tack start.... but it always comes down to the ancient oriental art of "Thai Ming"....more practice Grasshopper! ;-)

nice comments - thx

Super insightful as always, thanks for posting Marc. And congrats on the win!

Great work Marc...this is how you build our sport!

Really interesting vid mate...the commentary was spot on - Real decision making process explanations....more please!

Truly amazing and very inspiring! Thanks for posting this challenge, promise I will work on getting below 10 minutes ;-)

Of course when you are being timed nothing quite goes right... tiller doesn't go under the line quite quickly enough, halyard twisted etc. and you still made it in under 3 minutes. Well done.

What a great view!

Really good informative video, RS looks a nice dinghy, I've got a Europe but am looking at an RS for next season, be good to have a class to sail in...................

Thanks Marc, that commentary was super useful

very, very interesting - I know nothing about sailing - - but it's thrilling! TY

Brrrrr! And it isn't even *that* cold yet! edit: this is a really instructive video, thank you for posting it with all your commentary.
