At Cork week this year a guy tried to steal the "Maximus" flag off the
98ft canting keeled super-maxi beast... I helped the crew catch him and
got a tour round the boat as a reward
![]() He never got it down as theres so many bloody halyards and jammers, he couldn't work out which one it was. I believe he was stripped naked (his clothes then stolen) and chucked off the dock. |

I put about 200 marbles in a splash 3 years ago and they still havnt got them out and every time they heel in a gust they capsize and every time he plans you can hear them roll to the back of his boat.
I also managed to put his PDF up a flag pole and it got stuck and he had to climb it |

Sail to leeward of a Laser while waiting for the start and hook the back bit of their mainsheet around the top of the boom so the upper block jams, then watch as they to pull the boom in to unhook it without capsizing.

How about untying the boom block stopper knot which keeps the mainsheet attached and under tension. Then watching the helm tighten the mainsheet when launching only to discover that its run through all the blocks and all he has in his hand is the end of the sheet! (self inflicted and must be amusing to have been watching)

Whilst training, sail alongside another boat, get someone to sail with you,
sail close to the other boat, they jump off capsizing the other boat making sure it goes turtle then you come back and collect your partner in crime, and watch the unsuspecting victim struggle to pull their boat upright again. Simple, effective and really annoying

It's pretty entertaining to throw part of a shackle onto another boat while racing. Their panic is guaranteed to be hilarious.
