The crew was right up the front because there was no wind. All he did was get up from his lying down position and walk round the front of the stay. Was simple, seemed quick and got us a lot of funny looks.

Seemed better than him coming back and shifting the weight back to slow down the boat. Probably completely destroyed the air flow accross the jib but didn't seem to matter because it was mid tack he was moving
