I dont like it when it happens, but alway's have a good laugh with my mate if we raise the boat back up and nothing is broken :)
Then again, if i'm sailing half wind's in heavy wheathers normaly my mate stands in the back trapeze behind the skipper. Dont like to see the nose plowing in the water like in u'r movie :)
It's almost if you guy's are up to getting the best pitchpole hehe

Should be called crazy Bob stuntman trap dancing up the hull to the bow! Yeah the Isabella knock-down looked pretty exciting too! It always catches you off guard!

Yeah Bob was being a bit of a smartass walking to to bow...he owns a prindle 19 so there is no way we could do that on his boat.We were surprised at how far the 5.8 bow's would go under.......until they did'nt come up!I thought I was fine until 230lbs of Bob yanked the boat over.

Love the videos! It's good to know what Nacra's can handle. Onekiwi, I thought that would make a good how to video on breaking in new crew.

My contribution. Big water day, two up with main only, never popped the chute, faster without it. Foiled rudders proved their worth.

Oh, here's another. Note the light air, and John's editing, keeping the clips short.

Check out John's youtube channel, US772. Lots of nicely produced videos of landsailing and iceboating, and he builds amazing machines!

My goPro was stolen out of my car recently but i've had a few great capsizes on video and a de-masting on my H20, would be a fun watch for all! Man, those NACRA's always look faster than anything and right relatively quick?! You Guy's pushing those cats hard rocks!!

@Nacraman57, Do you alway's sail u'r cat alone?
I'm alway's worried that i cant raise it back if i capsize.
What's u'r limit in knt's for you to not sail it alone nomore?
