Thanks for posting. I couldn’t see enough at the start to make any intelligent comments about barging (or not.) Same goes for what’ll yield better VMG but I DO notice what I assume is the king spoke (marked with the yellow tape) is several degrees to starboard on both tacks. It appears that you’ve probably got some SERIOUS lee helm on starboard tack and your underwater foils aren’t lifting. I’d suggest checking to make sure your wheel/rudder are centered and that your rig is true. Maybe play with rake a bit. Nice boat!
Your jib lead always looks too far forward. Compare the foot depth to ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BM-RgAvh6No.htmlsi=raTWadHZEPnhQYzx&t=753
Yes, it is intentional. We are trying to point as close to the wind as possible. We are at about 24 degrees from the wind direction, it's a tight angle. to get up the racecourse.
Maybe it is a camera perspective thing but it seems the same on the second beat. Jib looks sheeted way farther in on starboard. Enjoying your videos, please keep producing them.
@@obsidian_sag_harbornice vid !! upwind may try sailing 5-10 degrees lower and at minimum a knot faster, less infucker more sheet on the jib. Watch your jib telltales iso the windinstruments.
@@obsidian_sag_harbor It is Very hard to win in the protest room from that position. Thank you for sharing this video. It's nice to see such a calm crew.
@@obsidian_sag_harbor Very hard to tell if there was an overlap. Even when you turned down to port, I didn't see the bow of a boat. I was wanting to pan with a 360 video. ha
I'd never allow that on my boat. also, the jib trimmer could use some coaching on ergonomics to improve her efficiency. on the first port tack, it looked like that jib never got beyond a coarse trim.
