What kind of race is it you were sailing in the clips? I think there are at least 3 different classes at the same mark rounding. Is it a rating race, practice, or just many classes on the same race course and coincidentally arriving at the mark same time?
Hello. It is the handicap fleet at my sailing club. There is a mixture of boat classes of different speeds, the result is worked out by applying a formula to the finishing time.
@@RealRudeRubeodd ye same as him my club races every Saturday and it’s just a mix of boats and sailors some national levels even some world level then you got brand new guys and everything in between. All just race together
Interesting video Andy! Thanks

@@Andykerrsailtraining thank you. Interesting that dinghies can have that too! We have handicap/rating races only for keelboats in Finland.
