I was at the Phantom Open at our local sailing club yesterday, got home and my phone had made this!  Music is a little cheesy but its amazing what phones can do.

Nice video. And good to see an old Dave Green OTT Class 5 yacht being sailed. My one was a little unruly and I needed to add lead just behind the front wheel on the main spar to keep any control. Can I ask how you set yours up?

hello Jack,

I bought this OTT in 1996 I guess, the problem is, I put some sand in the front of the hull, when the wind is increasing. Without sand or like you, the lead, its more difficult to control. With less wind I don't put any sand in the hull, but with tacking I come with my body up to put more weight on the front wheel, you can see it in the video.
best regards
Ron

Ah! Great same technique I used to use. I was worried I was a muppet for a bit! LOL
