In this YouTube Short, we explore why wearing shoes can be a problem on boats. Key reasons likely include: 🦠Hygiene – Shoes can bring dirt, sand, or chemicals from land, making it harder to keep the boat clean. ⚠️Safety – Slippery soles increase the risk of slipping on wet surfaces. ✖️Deck Damage – Certain shoes (like high heels or hard soles) can scratch or damage the boat’s surface. 👣 Barefoot or Boat Shoes Only!

After a few season of coming to grips with our Mumm 36 racing yacht and optimising her sail plan we were finally in a positions to win races. A stripped out racing yacht like a Mumm 36 needs to be sailed on the limit at all times to keep you in races against boats with more forgiving IRC ratings. For the team at Bottom Up Boats it more often than not it came down to the crew work if you wanted to separate yourself from the chasing pack. One of the most magical memories from our time on the Mumm 36 was this peel from the Code Zero to the A-Sail on a short course race in the season ending frosties regatta at Strangford Lough Yacht club. This slick transition with the crew working in complete harmony allowed the team on GTR to maintain top speed during the second to last mark round which help give them the race win by less than 10 seconds. If you would like to learn more about how the crew on GTR perfected this type of sail change take a look at the full video to hear more about what was going on board to make for the perfect mark round and peel. https://youtu.be/Qxr-gVgsjW0?si=-YvRmoOkJcoeIkya
