Would anyone know what sort of boat speed these guys lose when tacking like that, 0.1 kt, less?

I got the impression that half the crew are just there as ballast and do nothing other than sit on the side?

Have you seen the size of the spinnaker these guys have to get rid of in 3 boat lengths? Amazing - it must be totally knackering
