Good vid, lots of camera angles and great shot of the sail in the gybe. Do you have lots of cameras or was it a composite from a number of runs?

What is the future like?

Great video Toody, so jealous I missed out
And what are you doing wasting time with camera angles, what about the K's

Top photos too Gaz, a frustrating day for you also I guess.

Historically 22nd to the 26th is Green Island Speed Week, tides are going to be perfect.

Thanks Bob, I know how you feel I had to sit on the beach all day watching from the beach hut.

I have been and seen the future.

Northeaster's each and every day temp steady 27Deg, no traffic carpark empty, Botany looks sweet. Oh, it was unreal but I came back miss my family and sailing on your own was tough but I had to do it.

Future is looking good when we get there.

Nice vid also thanks for posting

Kind regards
Walt

That is something to look forward to. Can't wait but we have to.

What is the trick with the lay down gybe? I'm managing planing gybes on flattish water but don't lay the sail down. Do you reach back on the boom as far as you can and then pull in with the back arm as far as possible and then extend your front hand?
