thatīs a very familiar situation to me! had a very slow reaction and the winds werde very shifty and iīve been the crew... thatīs easy to guess what happened! my only thought was why i havenīt stayed in the tent and slept another 3 hours!

Wouldn't even try the 14 'steaming'. Had a bad experience with the 49er, still drunk from the night before, thinking there was no wind the next day. Guess what...... 30+ knots, big waves and two sailors stumbling about wishing they'd stayed in the pub the night before. I had the easy job, just hook into foot straps and hold on but I felt really sorry for the crew........ until we ended up swimming.
