Welcome to Navel Gazing at Camp David Shorts. In this fascinating short, we delve into the intricate physics that allows sailboats to seemingly defy the wind by sailing upwind. How is this possible? It's all about understanding the fundamental principles that govern sailing dynamics. From the Bernoulli principle to the concept of apparent wind, we'll break down these complex ideas into easy-to-grasp concepts. Whether you're a sailing aficionado or a curious mind, this short will give you a glimpse into the art and science of sailing. For those of you looking to expand your knowledge, consider reading 'Sailing for Dummies' by J.J. Isler and Peter Isler, Wiley, published in 2017, which provides a beginner-friendly guide to all things sailing. Alternatively, 'The Physics of Sailing Explained' by Bryon D. Anderson, released by Sheridan House in 2023, offers a deeper dive into the scientific aspects that make sailing possible.

Late in the afternoon in front of the event site crowd el Barbouchi fished nonstop literally to the final seconds, throwing cast after cast inside the harbour as he came into dock his Hobie Pro Angler 14 kayak. It had been a glassy morning on Lake Vanern and the early bite for Pike had closed down in the “honey hole” close to the Power-Pole Starting line and others struggled further afield as well. El Barbouchi however, managed to pull aboard Pike after Pike as the breeze began to enter the bays he fished. He upgraded four times while others were lucky to manage just one fish. He had caught one legal Perch as well when he pedalled over in a major act of sportsmanship to openly share the lure and techniques he had used to catch the two solid Pike he was to present to the scorer. He even stayed with those anglers and advised them a little longer before heading off to find the elusive Perch, that in the end even to the final seconds, he was never able to secure. Baginski, Gammie and Pickering too were unsuccessful in catching their four fish, which allowed another angler Jian Huang (CHN), who had been sitting In the top ten, to bustle his way into the top three. Baginski dropped back into second place, the second Canadian to take second after Kyle Moxon in 2014.
