The sequence starting at 1.59 could very easily have been fatal. Obviously a very well drilled crew.

Now I know why I don't race. No lifejackets, no tethers and some pretty rubbish safety boats.
Seeing this demonstrates how useful the Duncan Well's MOB Lifesaver are. http://moblifesavers.com/

That looks very good.. so does that 'finger-friendly' Harken carabiner in the film.

Surely the video is only 3.38 long?

Ah ..... I thought he meant "at 3.38 minutes running time: Best boom dismissal I've seen" so I jumped forward to 3.38 (I'm a very busy bee
) and the video just ended. :ambivalence:Richard

I have Backtow LJs which have a lifting strop built in. Am looking hard at the 6:1 tackle and trying to see if I can get away with a handy billy. I do like the Kong hooks, but the upper one can be a good snap as it’s going onto the spare halyard anyway.

I know it's a serious business but I had to laugh at the opening screen with the guy with his sunhat on hanging off the back of the boat...
