Insane near collision on high performance catamarans

[ymcaclimb]

It was a clean pass, he even passed to leeward. No big deal. I'm a little surprised he was going so much faster, but it sounded like Fly Girl was luffing.

That was pretty irresponsible. Fun to do, but irresponsible. I gotta check the statute of limitations regarding nautical stupidity before I admit or deny doing anything similar...

if you're not close enough to toss 'em a beer you ain't close enough.

collision? juajuajuajua the f40 guys know what they are doing you looser

[kenfo0]

@daviddimnet yeah, until they crash, then the whining starts. it was irresponsible.

[MrHobiecat]

Near collision, HAHAHHA that F40 OWNED you good. Sore loser!

[fstued]

the over taking has to keep clear he did but he was also lured he could have turned him up after over taking

Just good sailing

[bigkiwial]

A slight misjudgement there could have caused a lot of heartbreak!!

[lordcerebus]

its good, clean fun....

[guymon2468]

Overtaking sailboat must give way... Jiggle your rudder next time and see him jump!

[vibratingstring]

@guymon2468 ...but a privileged vessel must give a burdened vessel opportunity to keep clear.

Sailing that close to another boat is just plain irresponsible. Obviously the captain of that Formula 40 is an amateur.
