Twenty Years of the RS800 | 1999 - 2019

   It was cross offshore for us at Eastbourne. The race team tucked us right up inshore to avoid the larger waves further out. It wasn't actually too windy where we raced, but it was very gusty. You can see from the clip of us starting that our sails aren't completely backing and we're still driving off the main quite a bit. 
They canned the second race, there weren't too many boats out of control, but with a few breakages the rescue teams were tied up so the PRO made the call to return to shore.
