check this out at 10:28, I bet you get a good shot or even better a 3 second clip out of it

This is awesome, that 10:28+ 3 sec - a little flight and the landing, lolol.

But that's still way before things got really shaky, lol.

Indeed, he knows when to turn around. As the saying goes "Gentlemen do not sail the weather". But rascals do :winkingthumbsup"
 
Thanks everyone for pulling this all together! Made building my PPT much much faster!!!

as the resident 'sailor' (I jet in between), "Gentlemen do not sail TO weather." Basically, point upwind. And as a catamaran guy, this is doubly true (they point badly, compared to monohulls.)

By the way, I read this and could not help but think of the end of Animal House. "Did we give up when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?" "Germans??" "Ssshhhh, he's on a roll..."

If so, by who?
My family (5) would all want one-
