Thank you to the SO's of Erik Andreaa and Capt Glenn Shephard, as well as Malvina for getting this amazing footage for us! When we were invited to race on a Volvo Ocean 70 for the Halicarnassus Cup in Turkiye, we knew we would be in for a day of adventure. What we did not expect was for the spinnaker to blow on us as we were cruising downwind at 15 knots! It's a good thing our crew jumped into action right away, and we were all able to work together ro get it under control.
Repositioning a boat in a tight area isn’t about power — it’s about control. In this short clip, you see a small moment from a real maneuver that most skippers underestimate… until it goes wrong. On Sunday, the full video breaks down: • how to reposition safely in confined spaces • how to manage momentum, prop walk, and timing • how to think before you touch the throttle This is seamanship, not luck. 🎥 Full video dropping Sunday on Epic Navigator.
