The Cup 😮😅
Ah, almost bought a c&c 30 needed an engine. I could have done the work but it was several states away. I'm not comfortable doing that so far away from home. It was an awesome boat and someone got it before I did. I did end up with an Irwin 30. I know to check the water tank I've heard they're built with plywood from that era. Engines solid, roller furling diesel with a wheel. Pretty much my dream boat but moldy as that cheese in your fridge lol! I'll let you know how it goes. Gotta get her in the water first. Then I'm quitting my job and going on a long journey to wherever the wind is good.
When it is 4PM and you been out for a week, and the marina tells you there is ONE SLIP LEFT…all of a sudden you develop an interest in racing. (There's a great steakhouse there!)
Black soled shoes: except, Vibram never leaves scuff marks. If someone looks unhappy about my black Vibram soles, I just tell them not to worry, if I leave one mark, I'll scrub the entire deck.
I've never lost that bet.
"not annoying" – ha!
Absolutely skipper! Lately I've crewed [mostly] a 40 on Thursday evenings. After 25yrs off yachts, only sailing skiffs, it comes back, just seems much harder work now… But I've learned lots of boat, equipment & skipper/crew preferences. Our local YC has a "crew reserve list' you can join, to fill in for boats as needed on the evening.⚓
I use my old Chrysler 26 to race every boat I meet. I get my butt kicked constantly but ocassionally make them work for every inch. This weekend I had max hull speed reached a few times and the rudder out of the water every wave trough we crossed. Still lost but had the other captain wondering. Great video brother.
What happened to the box truck conversion?
I always tell new crew, if I yell at you, I’m not mad, it’s not personal … it’s really important.
I bought a series of sailing lessons. One was canceled and I was not informed. So I did what any respectable sailor would do. I went to the closest bar. A couple guys next to me were smashed. They asked what I was doing. I said reading a book on sailing. They said you don’t want to learn that way come race with us. I never finished the sailing lessons. A few years later I ran bow on a National Championship Winning Schock 35. Start as rail meat and be happy when someone ask you to pull a rope when they ask. 💯 correct that you will learn more in one weekend race than a year of YouTube videos.
Hey I'm a new subscriber RV guy, but considering a boat. I'm concerned about something though. Let's say I get a nice little boat and stuff it with my cool electronics and toys then go ashore to go climb a mountain to paraglide at some island. How do I keep someone from stealing all my stuff or even the whole boat???
As I've always said, "Sailing is days and days of pure boredom, interrupted by moments of sheer terror."
Love introducing new sailors to racing – thrills-a-minute, lots of smiles. The trick is not to strip their brain gears – i.e. figure out how to get them to do what has to be done NOW (for safety) by keeping it simple.
I've been watching only videos about sailing for a week and a lot of the videos are yours; everything about boat life is so enthralling. I live in Arizona so I have little chance of sailing, but I want to get out there when I graduate. The seas are calling me …
Side note: You talk a lot about Catalinas, especially Catalina Morgans. What are your thoughts on the Cat 445 ? I've been eyeing this boat and I plan on getting one in the future when I have the experience. I've read on forums comparing the Jeanneau 44 and the Beneteau Oceanis 45, but the Catalina 445 is not talked of often despite high praise from their owners. I'd appreciate your input on the boat
If a skipper yells and swears at you – leave and find a new boat to race on. Lets face it – its not Americas Cup. I used to race to keep sharp – as you said always other people out there to keep you safe. Racing is great if you get the right skipper. But if you are just meat on the side and have to endure abuse, then find another boat.
That is hilarious, the same damn thing happened to me last summer. The Yanmar in my E38 has an exhaust elbow that is connected to the dump by a fitting which is basically a short threaded pipe. Damn thing snapped right off, causing the engine to dump water and exhaust into the engine compartment. Luckily I heard it happened. Shut the engine down and called for a tow. The upside is I got to spend a week in Sandusky waiting for a new part :D.
Thank you
I’m curious about your description of PHRF racing. In the clubs where I sail (I crew on a few boats in the NYC area) the “pursuit” format, where the PHRF adjustment is made at the start, is fairly unusual. More often we race Time on Time, with the adjustments made after finishing.
That said, you are right that the details of PHRF are a long weedy topic. Your main point is more important – if you want to learn to sail, go and race.
One thing you didn’t mention – many boat owners are looking for good crew. If your basic criteria are met (not a jerk, comes back) there are owners who really need more crew!
I always thought Sailing, especially racing, was an elitist sport, like golf. Guess not. You actually make it sound like fun.
one design is much better. pursuit starts are not common. driver should sail to the marked settings upwind. team work and clean air wins races. no yelling. practice, practice, practice…
Did you see the Dufour 39CC in Kingston area… I am selling my house and wanting to buy that as a liveaboard
What do you think?
Great advice. Last year on a Wednesday night race, a port tack boat hit me doing $3000 damage to my stanchions. They paid for the damage, but this year I decided to crew on another boat. And I agree I have learned more and have just as much fun. So I will keep my boat for cruising and race on other boats!
Great video! I learned way more about how to sail by racing on someone else's boat than sailing my own boat. Racing forces you to do maneuvers that you would never choose to do when cruising or day sailing. Will be showing this video to everyone that says they want to learn to sail.
I’ve been driving the safety boats for our club races while I learn to sail. It’s a great way to support my club and watch the racing up close. Also moments of excitement helping out after a capsize. Amazing experience – maneuvering a small power boat around a capsized wayfarer in high winds and waves with 2 sailors in the water is great skill to learn.
I was only thinking about this topic the day, and happened across the Clipper round the World race! Downloaded the info for next year and well, I like to go off at the deep end! Can't quite afford full circumnavigation but a leg is doable! What say you?
Wasn't it your birthday the other day? If so happy belated, if not take it anyway
Tim, if you need crew to bring the boat home – I’m available
True story…
I started racing other peoples' boat in about 2010.
Next month I "retire" with the Pacific Cup (San Francisco to Oahu)
Last weekend, we brought home our own first boat, a Swan 59.
@ 74 & a novice, I'm soon to jump into that salt life. Found & buy that old Catalac8M fixer upper but pretty decent & just do it! You sir / Lady K Sailing…, have been a great 1st. timer's learners curve. An eye opener when I thought of what I didn't know. Soooo…, much to learn! {Telltails*} Thanks. ⛵
I was a cruising sailor and joined the local club which did keel boat racing. At the first few times racing I was in awe of the skills of the rest of the crew so much that I actually lost some of my abilities to sail effectively. I persevered, the skipper persevered and as crew (always short handed it seemed) had an amazing time and learned much. The Saturday around the bouys was fun and the overnight (Southern Straits) was a test of fortitude which many men like as a test. Yes by all means learn to crew and race as our host here is correct in that your skills will improve dramatically over the short run.
Racing also builds perspective. When you have duked it out through squals with others while trying to go as fast as possible, cruising with family seems easier🤙
Good advice, I am currently doing this for the summer race series and this is exactly how I approached it. The captain is great and teaching a lot. It has been a blast on top of getting much needed experience.
Nice and informative!
As always!!
Good job Tim
Showing up on race day has never worked for me. I have the ASA bareboat and an international proficiency certificate. I don’t claim to be an expert, but I would like more time on the water! Maybe the Lake Mead (las Vegas) sailing scene is just not great? All of the boats on the lake are old and overpriced. It’s literally cheaper to fly to California and grab a rental.
I was wondering about how you were doing on Lady K. I love surprises. Happy Sailing ⛵
Great info as always. Thank you
It's all well and good until you suddenly find yourself and a half-dozen other, heavily heeled and flying sailboats, all converging, uncontrollably, round the first buoy.
Suddenly you realize that those silly, "right of way rules" seem to be the only thing preventing a serious collision (or so you hope).
Suddenly you realize that this is the exact opposite of your reasons for being out here in the first place. The rat race was something you were attempting to escape from, not polish to perfection.
Suddenly you realize that this is infinitely worse than the crap you put up with everyday on the freeway (for which you get paid).
Suddenly your "skipper friend" becomes a real road-raged idiot and no longer any kind of person you'd even want to call "friend".
"Yacht racing" is not what I call "fun".
