Plato 8 Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 Would a 'storm jib' produce enough power to have the boat leap off a wave. Looks like she's hard on the wind too?? But then cameras don't lie. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aardvarkash10 866 Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 Hard to tell at that resolution, but I'm calling BS on it, especially on a hanky sized furled headsail. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Looks like she's hard on the wind too?? But then cameras don't lie. That was my thought. An Ss34 isn't hugely different to a cav 32 and mine would not hold that angle with just a storm jib. The bow would blow away. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CarpeDiem 355 Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 It's a very real photo. The photographer even won an award for this photo. She was fore-reaching in 50+ knots off Sydney heads. This was the day before she got home. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
