THANK YOU for such wonderful video blogs of The Ocean Race. I’ve been so happy w/ the commentator who explains all aspects of sailing, navigation, & ship repairs w/ such skillful knowledge & child-like awe/wonder at what humans can do. I don’t sail, so to have someone explain so much to me has really enhanced my enjoyment while getting a greater understanding of what I’m enjoying. I feel like I’m there when I watch these videos, not landlocked in Denver. Again, THANK YOU! IT, AV & editing just aced it!!🎉
Since the arrival of the boats in Itajaí, I had been thinking about the shape of the front sails. And now that you touch on the subject , it is very interesting to think about looking at IMOCA with that backward poles, giving more work and options, I think. Thanks Nial
Marvelous explanation on Jib trimming Nials, epic footage of the crews aboard these technologically advanced racing sailing craft. Francesca Clapcich aboard 11th Hour gives us a fabulous introduction with this last leg to Italy and the different weather these boats will see on the passage. Fantastic to see 11th Hour back on the course after the amount of damage received by the French. Certainly, we shall stay tuned for following exciting News from Nials.
Don't think anyone is Knott thinking of sailing around you some how, it's on the pirates faves list_@m ~ All foils need a fan eye knowticed: ~ )_diddymouse😀 🌎

Thank you, Niall and OR crew for making sense of all of this
The WindWhisper crew said “This may be the last time VO65s race in the Ocean Race, so let’s go all-out!” And I respect that.
Great explanation Niall. Thanks!
Can we get 11 Hour back on the tracker?

Sailing Fast - but away from the mark!
Gotta love the logic of Sailboat racing!
Maybe the front three will stop and wait for 11th Hour to catch up so we get the race for the win we all wanted 😕
From a PR perspective, a move like that would make global headlines. However, imo, doubtful that will happen.
Maybe if 11th hr would bring them an extra week of food!
Malizia are already 3 days short of food...
It’s what they should’ve done at the start of the race when the collision happened - all wait until 11th hour is able to race again.
Yeah just wait for a boat that can’t get points for the leg
All the best for you!!
11th Hour is flying!
... like a dead fish In the doldrums of the Bay of Biscay. So sad.
Any issues to be expected from the school of orcas that has been roaming the coast of Spain /Portugal, tearing rudders from boats?
I heard that they were contacted for a hit on a certain blue green boat
It would be Nice to get the correct names in the interviewed persons
Yeah, no doubt. Two kiwi girls sailing mislabelled as completely different people..
@@Kiwigd and Jajo Jurgen labeled as Hainer
U mean Rutger hahaha
please. Put 11TH and Guyot on tracker.
11th hour is on tracker...but no speed is available. 1.5 degree W and 50 N
I do think that 11th Hour should get redress.
And no one talks about the IMOCA wrecks being unable to close in on the VO65 class. This whole race is a charade and the choices made are way off.
