This video was taken by the skipper of a 54ft yacht in the Caribbean. The situation was that the skipper questioned the legendary speed under sail of the Shearwater 45, so Steve Hunt, the owner of "Maggy May", challenged him to a race to the next island and gave him a head-start of nearly 40 minutes. This was taken as the 45 sailed past him. It continued through his lee and arrived in port an hour ahead of the 54. See more info at http://dixdesign.com/sh45.htm .

Practicing tacking on a sailboat is important for both safety and efficiency. Being able to tack correctly and quickly can help to avoid situations in which the boat and its occupants are at risk, such as a collision with another vessel or running aground. Additionally, mastering tacking efficiently will enable the boat to travel faster and with less energy expended, meaning longer trips are possible with the same amounts of supplies. You will also get to the bar quicker! With practice, a sailboat can be one of the most enjoyable and rewarding boating experiences.
