Interesting video but I can't imagine this is something a first time
novice should attempt....how much weight does your boat need to heel,
how high off the water is the weight, are you confident steering to get
the weight from vertical to mast to heeled over, will the actual heel be
enough to clear the bridge, how do you determine the angle of heel
needed to clear the bridge?
I doubt this was the first time this boat and this skipper did this.
Nevertheless, there still had to be a first time and that must have been
exciting.

You might experiment with 4 or 500 pounds of garbage hung off your
halyard and see how much of a lean you get.
