Well thats how he got stuck to leeward initially. In this instance there was no problem and coach / safety boat was alongside by the time the camera submerged. But on a serious note it does show how quickly a boat can invert and how easy it could be to get tangled in the rigging. |

Brilliant. Completely mesmorising. 
What's with all the string on the mast? Is there really nowhere to stash the main halyard? |

How steady was that breeze? Looked like he was in front of a green screen with the boat on trestles and the odd bit of water splashed over him, with the background put in later!

The wind was shifting a bit - if you look at the boat over his shoulder it gains then drops back a couple of times before tacking off. I think the steadiness is more a reflection of the skill of the sailor than the wind. |
