Nice attention to details! I don’t remember and I only realized now but
from what i’ve seen now the swallowtails are only bad adjusted in footage
from one of the races. I guess we took tension from the mast and didn’t had
time to adjust the swallowtails or something like that because we usually
saw that before each start. regards
With this wind we preferred to had the skipper sit more farther down so the
crew could work better with waves. But not far from the time we shoot this
video the skipper started sitting closer to the traveler bar but with this
wind I think a leg in front of the traveler bar is too much. I think it’s
enough like in this video ( you have to put com)

You know the two strings shaped like a V that lead into the cleats on
either side of the boat? The ones attached to a mainsheet block? They
aren’t centred, so when you’re going upwind fully sheeted in, the mainsail
will be out further than it should be and so your slot will be more narrow,
meaning you will lack speed and not be able to point as high.

They wear swimming trunks above wetsuit to reduce wear on the wetsuit and
provide more grip when hiking. Also looks cool haha

are gusts.

The skipper kept incorrectly holding the tiller extension every few
minutes! That always gets on my nerves. :/
