Hi, did you have auto-pilot on this mini? Please write what kind nav equipment allowed for this race. Thanks.
23.9 ? jesus christ that is very fast for a mini …….
nice one Ollie!
interesting
next time some foam tape on the beam? a real hard hit will be deadly, but this kind of accidents can be prevented
ouch
was the boom alright?
That’s gotta hurt! LOL!
fuck the boom preventer …
As they said, “the no mercy medical clinic” LOL. Damn that must have really hurt, be he had a headache for a few days. The timing of the preventer breaking was total bad timing..
had you bothered to watch the video closely, as well a s through the end, you would have seen that a preventer broke. more like tough luck.
Well that was a pretty amateur thing to do…
snälla vinden kom igen nu skit vind xD
the boom always wins!
You assume correctly, but my question remains unanswered. Does it have something to do with a bond that develops between people when they are in those circumstances together? Is it to save weight? Was there a comprehensive physical with blood tests passed by all sailors before the VOR?
You never have been sailing offshore I would assume. . .
Why no latex gloves?
