I don’t usually watch sailing but that was exciting to watch
Oh i remember watching the Monsoon Cup live years ago. One if not the best edition of the WMRT.
Missing those fights and missing the monohulls
I miss the monohulls. It's too dangerous for these types of skirmishes since they swapped to the space ships.
hah! Be careful what you wish for. Now (2 yrs later) check out the design of the America's cup monohulls, with their insane foils.
With the 'backless' design to the not so nautically minded it looks like you could end up with one boat running up inside the other, ending up like a car on a trailer?
Can't be good trying to bring them in through surf or even with big following waves?
so, interesting things that are happening...it looks to me like they dropped the jib to be able to better fetch the windward mark (reducing drag?) I've never seen this move and am very impressed by the quick and casual manner they excecuted. Also, maybe someone could explain the penalty. I thought that the starboard boat is unable to bear away if another boat is ducking. Is this legal before the other boat makes a move to duck? What's with the 90 degree rule?
Love these highlights videos. Keep it up. Thanks
2:58 that's what I'm talking about .. wow..
whys is this so edited? its is difficult to follow :-(
Now that's real sailing
I don't understand what happened on the line there. Robertson can hold onto his penalty all the way to the line and execute it without crossing in the last metres?
You can take penalty before the line, on the line, behind the line, around the mark - it doesn't matter. However to finish you have to cross the line from course side without a penalty
Hello I thought it must execute a 360 degree turn penalty
Good video. ^^ The starboard (right way of boat) shouldn't bow down more than 90 degree.. it's from the wind angle.. right? one more thing, is the rule apply to prestart as well?
4.00', the mainsail luff looks so slack for an close hauled run.
Wow, exciting! 3:37 How come these boats don't have a transom?
So the green water runs out the back . .. more efficient than a closed ass end and scuppers.
That much less weight and air drag as well. A sailboat always moving forward has little to fear from following seas overtaking the transom, as these boats likely wouldn't be match racing in conditions that rough anyway.
What class boat are those?
It looks like NASCAR out there.
The sea is too small for the both of us old saying
Раньше были гонки. Кто быстрее - тот и молодец.
А сейчас - соревнования подставушников. Кто грамотнее другого подставил - тот и победил.
Why is he raising the Yankee flag at 2:24 ?
Yells Mock outrage
Racing???
Bump cars without the bump!
aren't the commentators gas bags,,nice little match race ,come on!!!
waaaaaa all ex football players
It would be better if they had swords and cannons grappling hooks. this seems lame to me
What kind of boats? Why no lifelines?
Doesn’t matter - it’s match racing in a harbour with mercy boats everywhere
Génial. Mais ce n'est plus vraiment un sport de gentlemen. 😂😂
Psychopaths on water 😁
As close to cheating as you can get, unseamanlike boat handling, I'm glad it wasn't rewarded by a win. Of you steal someone's wind you'll hit them like that. Better to steal more wind by being in the windward quarter,and quite safe too 😏
That was so boring.
