A 10-15 kt beam reach along the Maine coast is nice too...

I cranked up the volume as suggested and my stomach got pretty tight when the boat dropped into that trough. Even while sitting in front of a computer screen I show my true colors. Nice video though.

more intense in a way...the boats are driven so much harder than an open 60 Vendee boat...more crew faster boats etc
