This is a very good video, and I don’t mean to argue, but that isn’t 50knts. 50knts is around 60mph. That’s nearing hurricane levels. After snapping a mast in 35mph winds, and with the conditions and waves then, I find it hard to believe it is nearly doubled that. That’s around 20knts, At a push 30knots at times. There was probably a conversion error somewhere. You wouldn’t be able to keep it flat with your main pinned in. Still a good video.
Good video for sure. It's a RUclips thing to speed video 'as though' the object were going different speeds. Maybe that's what they were doing with the title. Of maybe just looking for views;-)
I want to preface my argument by saying that you are correct and I'm mostly being pedantic. There are places that build a seabreeze above 50knts which is a gale force, hurricane force winds start at about 64. Just recently here in South-Western Australia we got a low pressure system which brought winds of above 50 knots. These boys probably just read the wind warning for their local area and put that number in the title. There was also a day at the 420 australian championships where it got to 45-50 knots and some of the heavier crews managed fine.
@@marcellmohacsi260 it may have been a little gust, but that’s it. What people are pissed about is the fact you put a tittle that eludes to the delusion that you were out there sailing in 50kts of pressure when clearly you weren’t. No big deal, flat sea state, nice day.
that moment when ur on the wire and theirs too much windward heel and you’re struggling to get yourself into the boat and ur skipper isn’t balancing the boat
The 420 with decent crew weight and skill is a great boat in crazy high winds. It's easy to get on the plane and that makes the big winds not a problem because pressure on the sails is reduced. The 420 planes up to silly speeds. On a 3 sail reach you can go crazy fast. I never actually satnaved it but it must be 16knots or so. After the 420 in 20Kts+ winds we decided we needed to find the same sort of challenge in lesser winds. We bought a Laser 4000. It was a struggle at first because it is pretty horrible upwind if you try and sail like a 420. You have to let it breath and not try to feather it. Back off a little and flatten it and it will plane upwind in 14kts of wind. Off the wind it's crazy. Raise the gennaker and the boat becomes a zen machine. You end up planing at 20kts and you can take you hand of the tiller and the boat just ploughs on confidently. Great feeling but if your heading for a shore it can be a bit disconcerting. Turns out Gybing at high speed is actually quite easy. Turn slowly, keep the boat flat and Duck. Your crew will sheet in on the other side and you're away again. The L4K is a ludicrously underrated skiff. If you want to go really fast for not a lot of cash there is no better boat available. Luv and Peace.
@@lukedubois7679 it really is tho, i'm going to nationals for 420s and during winter down here in south west Australia we can get storms that gust to over 70kn (we won't go out in it). it may be true that it wont start out like this but STICK WITH IT. The first time my skipper and i broke 25kn of boat speed (nearly 50kmh) it was magical. i wish you well and hope you go on to do amazing things
Cool video and good sailing. The puff that capsized you was wicked. For your coach --- assuming he/she is in the inflatable --- to document 50 knots of puff, the inflatable would have to be stopped during the puff or he/she would have to do some fancy math including speed of the inflatable, angle of apparent wind, and angle of true wind. Maybe briefly 50 knots of relative wind?
It realy looks like you had a wonderful time planing with your 420 dinghy. According to the Beafort scale this is what happens at 50 kts windspeed: Sea heaps up and foam begins to streak. Whole trees in motion. Effort needed to walk against the wind. Swaying of skyscrapers may be felt, especially by people on upper floors. simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beaufort_scale
I bet you know better, what it's like to have this kind of strong wind on a small lake, like Balaton.. Because of the size of it, there can't be any high waves, it's just physically impossible. This kind of wind chops off the waves top's easily, that's why there are no whitecaps but heavy water spays. I hope you are satisfied with my answer.
Please read the other comments, I won’t reply to every on of you.. It was on the official meteo site that in this time there was 100km/h wind, and also our coach measured the wind in his boat, so there is need to argue, it’s a fact

Go for it,420s are good to start with and can be hardly ever be completly masterd ,I am sailing since i was 5 and gone from opti to openbic to a 470 ,sailing is the best sport ever.
Fabio Seutz from 1:45 its 45+ for sure. You can see that we were holding into the boat and just jumping through the waves. It was in downwind and we couldn’t do anything. Then you can see that we were trying to go upwind but it was less than 10sec and we failed even with thrown out sailshots. And after the boat just lifted me out of the water like a windsurf.

@Joseph Thom Oh really? Thank you for explaining.. I alredy told in the comments that it is 50kts in the end of the video, my coach measured the wind. So there is literally no point to argue with it. You probably see it better through a gopro footage..
Click Bait. You wouldn't be able to launch in 50knts. Boat speed is probably around 20knts tops, which means a 30knt force on the mast and some of us know what that means :) Just admit it's 25-30knts and there's a typo in the Heading.
Interesting, what would you have done, when you want to pull yourself up to the boat by the mast, but it's just lift you from the water like a windsurf?
Nice sailing. But rather 15 kts than 50 kts.
Nah at least 20
That would be a building 25 normally you’d get bigger waves but the speed they were going I know it would have been around 25

50 knot sends for the boys good job 👏
That’s sick I moving up from an optimist at my yacht club and this just made me even more hyped any other tips?
Maybe try a pacer to ease you into the teammwork and maybe a spinnaker one to teach you some basics of the spinnaker
just get out there and go, after a couple capsizes you’ll get use to it 👍

So few waves looks nice. Sailing in the west of Ireland went out today in around 25kts and the swell was easily 3m tall
No way it is 50 knots conditions !! also hard to believe the 25 knot based on the water surface

about 20kn gusting into the 30s but not 50 knots. Or can you proof me wrong?
Excellent !!
Do u have any idea of how fast u went in the boat awesome vid btw
I do not really know how fast we went, but our coach needed some time to get us with his motorboat on full speed:D
🤔 if righting your capsized boat recapsizes it... did you actually *wrong* your dinghy? 😂
Cool video. I've never seen a dinghy flipped 180 degrees :P
I just pulled myself up in the mast and then the wind just lift me up with the sail, and then I let go, because I didn’t want to hurt myself

don't these boats snap in half in anything over 35knots
