Blurry, ill focussed, quite dodgy drone footage, yet somehow compelling...



Australian Lightweight Sharpies I believe: 12sqm Sharpies but updated roughly to 60s or 70s style. Does remind me why I don't want to sail pole kite boats regularly again.

I watch that and I think, maybe I miss the adrenaline rush (aka panic) of the F5+ pole change over, kite ragging massively, helm hanging on to three things + the tiller thing.... then again, maybe not on a regular basis!

Your embedding didn't work... but even copying out the youtube link, that's actually not very pleasant to watch!!  some interesting distortion of the water surface, but otherwise too weird to be watchable!

yes appears the embedding hasnt worked.  also forgot to mention you need to use chrome and or the youtube app on a smart phone for it to be viewable in its proper format currently. heres the link without all the embed code https://www.youtube.com/embed/OkcXZTQHuX0

You need some rain-x on the dome!
(I have no idea if it will damage the dome so check before using, but it's amazing on car windscreens)

That was truly surreal, it brought back the full horrors of MPS sailing wth extra chill, and distortion and bonus split water horizon inversion, frankly it reminded me of going to see Psycho for the first time as a young lad, I shall probably wake up screaming tonight having watched that - er thanks leave your name in the waste basket by the door on the way out.
