Vivaldi 53 Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Hit it on two different tacks? Looks like they were doing on purpose almost? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fish 0 Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Hit it on two different tacks? Looks like they were doing on purpose almost? I was wondering that, I didn't see any effort on the tiller or sheets to avoid the impact, and was wondering how they managed to get good footage from two different angles, if it were a random screw up and bystanders 'just happening' to have their phones out recording. I guess if you were going to scrap a 4ksb you could have some fun wrecking it first, but the sails looked in good condition and not much like a boat on its way to a landfill.
