Eric:
You were sailing in 15 - 20 knts >>true<<, with gusts to 25
knts.....looks from the video and the camera angle, your headsail was
your #3....am I correct? Nice laminate sails, as well!
Quite crew as well....I have never crewed on a boat that quite......is
it because they know the camera is on them?

Chuck,
Here is some video from a regatta a couple weeks ago. It was blowing
15-20 with gusts to 25. We were light on crew so we raced non-spinnaker.
If you watch during the upwind leg, you will see when a puff hits and
the main trimmer doesn't ease fast enough, the boat will heel, then
try to go head to wind as main is over powering the boat and the
rudder can't hold the bow down.
You will also see an horrible example of barging at the start of the
race. I should have protested, but I needed to go home right after the
last race...
