Brilliant!! outstanding presentation an clinic on tacking a performance cruiser. Then the silent tute on rigging head an staysail together. wow. Lv the scene at 10:40 sitting down to a snack, over your shoulder is a mountain filling the wind screen!! I was instantly hooked on this channel when I realized a couple of racers rigged a staysail on a J46 for passage making. Totally thrilled to find tons of top shelf coaching.

As a sailor this is a bit of fresh air, a sailing channel with a couple who actually know how to sail.. I am a cruiser but also a racing sailor, well done and now subscribed…

I’m just starting out on my own sailing journey when I discovered your channel via your Cape Horn video - inspirational. Fabulous sailing. I’m looking forward to watching your back-library and new videos. Best of luck to the three of you

"We're turning.... gybing..." (the VISUAL and the SOUND) - I watched and listened three or four times. INTENSE!!!! That what the moment... before the climax - "Copy that!...Perfect!" AND then it became more and more incredible! You guys are the BEST! I enjoyed every minute of it. That was awesome!
