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 .
Two yachts sail side by side until a sudden gust forces one to tack — the boom swings across dangerously close to the other skipper! A perfect mix of panic, laughter, and real sailing drama caught on camera. #BoomSwingTrouble #SailingShorts #YachtRacing #SailingFails #SeaAdventure #YachtLife #BoatDrama #RealSailing
