Shameless plug for the new Ballyholme website.

The video is me and crew Neil hanging on for dear life at times as carnage ensues around us. Only 18kts of wind but the waves made it seem much more.

Just be thankful there's no audio. Neil has a disconcerting habit of always trapesing initially in front of the shrouds. Not a great idea on what was a close reach. So you'll have missed me shouting "Get ING AFT!"

Apologies to Firefox users ( the problem would probably have affected Safari as well but I don't have a Mac). The problem was due to a brief dalliance with SSI scripts and would have resulted in a frame of HTML source rather than product. This has now been corrected.

Clap Absolute beauties! I love the 2 boats capsizing at the same time, on the same mark, but on opposite tacks! Very elegant  

Thanks radixon.
