The GTR race team quickly pop out the flattening reef on the first downwind leg of the KYC Regatta as the breeze dropped out. The crew at the mast could not get the sail to drop due to the pressure in the main. A quick centre of the main took the pressure out,allowing us to unclip it before winching the sail up to full highs. The team at bottom up boats hope you are enjoying these short clips from our 2026 racing adventures.

This is the kind of moment that defies belief. Two large yachts racing dangerously close in heavy storm conditions. Their wakes collide with incoming waves, creating chaotic, unpredictable water movement. One boat tips so far that the mast nearly drags into the ocean—a point of no return for most vessels. The entire crew screams, expecting a capsize. Then something impossible happens. The boat snaps upright and powers forward as if nothing happened. The cameraman—and everyone watching—can't believe what they just witnessed. This is raw, viral-worthy footage of extreme offshore racing where split-second decisions and pure luck determine life and death. ⛵ What happens in this series: • Two yachts racing extremely close • Wake collision creates chaos • One boat tips to near-capsize angle • Crew bracing for the worst • Impossible recovery caught on camera • Immediate aftermath and shock reactions • Damage assessment while still racing • Both boats completing the race 🌊 Real offshore racing. Real danger. Real miracles caught on iPhone. Have you ever seen something this impossible? Drop your experience in the comments. This kind of footage is exactly why we love the ocean and fear it at the same time. #OffshoreRacing #SailingAdventure #ExtremeWeather #StormRacing #SailingLife #RawFootage #SurvivalInstinct #NearCapsize #MarineLife #Regatta #WaveAction #OceanPower #ActionSports
