Crash at Matchrace Svendborg 10.aug 2013 

The boat that was hit was the leeward boat and was not at fault. All the windward boat had to do was head up for a fraction of a second and then bear off and he'd be clear.

Match racing can be a lot of fun but you need to know what you are doing. The camera boat was frustrating the daylights out of me because from the very beginning of the race right until the end, they had good boat position and should have won but they kept their sails pulled in way too tight and starved the heck out of them. They should have let them out slightly, gone for more boat speed and they could have won. The other crew knew how to maximuze boat speed and take advantage of this crews mistakes and that is why they ultimately won, too bad they were hit especially when they had right of way.

why is the boom not on the centerline line light ot moderate winds?

09:50 for the crash ;)

Great race Pity the crash.

BEAUTIFUL tacking! That has to be an Olympic sized course.

I’m sorry but I just have no idea how anyone would think they could have made the swing around the stern there.

Type of boat ?? J ?

blue kite, out sailed and out foxed.

Don't look at him... You loose

This helmsman has bad technique for mark roundings

When you have the helm, you must watch it like the milk on heat and not start doing other things.

The more I watch these, the more I see entitled, whiny, punks...

This guy doesn't know the rules... horrible

As a former sailing instructor, seeing this made me furious, To all of you out there, this a good example of how NOT to behave on a sailing boat. Running , jumping, with no MOB protection whatsoever and no life jackets wearing. Poor control over what is happening outside the boat. You are a danger to yourself and to others. There is a captain missing,, who should give all the orders. It is a setup for an accident.
