A rogue wave from a different direction to the general wave train hits my boat while hove to (not sailing) in a storm, 100 miles off the Australian coast on passage from New Caledonia to Brisbane in November 2017. This was during my single-handed sailing circumnavigation in Fathom, my Vancouver 28. The tiller is not lashed completely to leeward as I was experimenting in keeping some way on. Conditions improved enough after 3 days that I was able to start sailing again and safely make landfall. If I had tried to close on the coast in these conditions it could have been a disaster in the shallow water and even bigger breaking waves found in the South Australian Current (another solo sailor was rescued at the time).

Two big racing yachts charge downwind at high speed with their spinnakers fully open. They surf fast waves only inches apart, crews yelling “Hold your line!” as water spray hits the camera and the wind shakes everything. A dramatic, heart-racing moment of extreme sailing energy! ⛵🌊 #sailing #yachtracing #spinnaker #downwind #sailinglife #oceanracing #boats #extremesailing #viralshorts #sailingshorts
