this is yacht racing

[jjayinla]

Someone say Yacht racing? There's nothing I love more than being out on the open water. I just joined Yacht Dates hoping to find that special someone who feels the same way :) In better conditions of course...

[deka360]

Not available mobile, thumbs down, get with the times...

[Darkc0w]

Please get rid of the music. Good lord =D

[spongebong81]

Thats Heaven..

[29erUSA128team]

people say sailing is for hippies....bull fucking shit its for men with big balls

[quahogish]

love the video-hate the music--have to watch it with nasty music off!

[saltydog45]

Ironiclly watched this for the umptenth time...great vid.Sad part is today ( December 6 ) is the day a NZ icon and sailing legend was murdered...RIP Sir Peter Blake...sailing in NZ hasnt been the same since you died :(

[ImTheChopo]

The Volvo Ocean Racing must be one of the hardest yacht racing.

[newnetnerd]

How fawking awesome was that?!

Great video editing. Loved the music too.

[HalcyonYachtsLtd]

Exciting stuff!!!

[tennisraindelay]

[darlinglung]

[jjayinla]

Very nice sailing! Looks like so much fun! I've really been meaning to get out on the water more and enjoy the ocean. My friend told me about Yacht Dates..maybe it's time I really give it a try

[sail4live]

Sailing is way better than any other sport

[dan69052]

Sailing vids are great but the background music could be much much better.

[lesterjohnson]

@dan69052 yeah true that. i made this when i was like 15 haha. but at least now sailing media has really exploded and theres heaps of amazing footage to check out.

[cstall13]

@lesterjohnson Dude, the background music is AWESOME! GREAT job on the vid...... this is totally one of my faves!

[MercsDude]

@lesterjohnson I think the song is awesome personally, what's the name of it? band?

[saltydog45]

@MercsDude POD-Boom

[Athanaseus]

@dan69052These guys have balls of steel, but, absolutely, the music sucks massive.

[sieksnis]

@Athanaseus No. Music great.

[unclewilly2]

@dan69052 Perfect.. i got goosepimples .. i love the Musik !!!!! i use it in my own videos and im not 15 :D

[dhoulkarnain]

[canable12]

This is a GREAT video

I want more

[fazfs]

anyone interested in racing swans? in shore or off shore let me know oliver faraday = swan S&S 411. get back to me on youtube.

[GrobaTheAviator]

@fazfs What is the story?

[lepivert]

It could be much better without this music...

[verzu23421]

@lepivert I THINK SO TOO



[din3500psi1959]

Those ocean racers make the AC boys look like a bunch of "Grey Poupon" panty-waists!

[unclewilly2]

I saw it

Became excited

Came..

and went

Sailing is the F***ing best thing you can do on this 70% watered Wold !!!!!!!

And Heavy Metal is the perfect partner !!!

[Merrimac91]

simply overhelming

[1138thz]

I like everything about this video..thumbs up!

[MrMenios80]

hell yeaaaah!!!

[MrGrahame69]

Why do all the good yacht sailing videos show up with crappy metal music, anybody got a recording device on the bow to let us hear the real violence:)

[tridawgn]

@ 1:50 i would CRAP myself!

[KanzlerM]

I'm glad to see the audio back on this.... now all we need is an HD Video version!

[paulshocker]

Thanks for getting the audio going again. Its been a while since I watched this.

[groovymoon]

That's right... and no little golf cart to pick you up off the field and rush you to the surgery team anytime you twist a pinky...

[raynettegrant]

I LOVE THIS!!! MY FAVORITE BY FAR!! Do more!!

[med3S]

72 people were on those yachts :P

[gokselgunay]

Muhteşem... :))))



[Sailinman69]

I've wathced this video a 100 times and now that POD music is audible again it rocks

[axelswe000]

[knmurphy1]

YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!



[CPx2TV]

Awesome! :D my dream!

[myculture1]

this is the reason sailing is the most awesome sport on earth!

[smoke33ify]

sail rape at 1:29

[WDSdiver]

Now THAT's sailing!

[paguscorvi]

next time i get asked, why yacht sailing is a sport and storms can be so strenuous, i'll just refer to this video. i can kinda feel that numbing fatigue creeping up in those fellas.

[worldmrt]

Indeed it is a gentleman's game!

[cc9drvr]

Shame, It took so long to get back. Awesome Vid and soundtrack. Are the gods pleased?

[jakehunter50]

Wonder how long it would have taken Columbus to reach America in that boat

[cc9drvr]

@jakehunter50 About 30 minutes or so.

[CaptJAA1]

The music is bad. Please.

[Nicitor313]

Phenomenal footage; but the music is undescribably annoying!

[XxspoedxX]

Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that is so cool!!

[MrHOYTBOY]

What type of sailing is this???

[Molotow4ever]

@MrHOYTBOY offshore, monohull at the beginning later multihulls

[MrHOYTBOY]

@Molotow4ever Thank you very much!

I would Like to crew one. I love the ocean and water, better i love swimming before or after a storm.

[Molotow4ever]

@MrHOYTBOY Yeah, me too! It's just an awesome sport for me

[SweDrift1]

Awsome ! I would test that

[spongebong81]

NOW THAT IS SAILING!!!!!!!!!!! The only rush to mach this ive found is 110+mph on the hood of a car.Man cant wait till sept ill be siling the south east coast of the US for a month. 

[madeleineeclaire]

great!

[MrSailnsurf]

2:41 is what happens when the pit crew don't float the spinnaker properly.

[Mad1dowg]

i go from watching a link about some crackhead yell'n rake em'.....to a video about yachts!!!!!!!

i love youtube.

[terynclarke]

I wish we had more televised yacht racing in the US. This video shows how AWESOME the sport is! If it were televised, so many people would be hooked!

[qwasd0r]

Manly men doing manly things!

[SuperKerouac66]

Very nice sailing ! This sport need to be discover by more peoples.

Mtl, Qc

[DaBlindMole]

@SuperKerouac66 So True... Here we can see real man... Mtl, Qc... Cat Owner

[momo3gatu3ka]

それにふさわしい重装備でしたね。

ディズニーランドでは決して味わえないスリリングで刺激的な体験­なんでしょうね。

見るだけで満足！ありがとう！

[seiraman69]

素晴らしい。まさに格闘ですな。

[MrSailnsurf]

2:34 this happened to me in Torbay Week, but we got a nice recovery though :D

[bgzace]

Thanks to POD for soundtrack again. From an offshore racer, this video is the SHIT !

[Mantriur]

I'm a motor guy, but this video made me understand the thrill of sails. Damn!

[Molotow4ever]

I love this video !

Tanks for posting ! =)

[66bugs]

Hell yeah! I love this video!!! Happy to hear it again!!!!

[dlegeant77]

wwoh fucking nice

[geometerix]

"BOOM... here comes tha...BOOM...ready or not"

could be an into to jibing 101

[geometerix]

there used to be a video "extreme sailing" with music by BT... anyone know how to find it? or did youtube shut it down? loved it...miss it.

[whitecap75]

For all the uptight, izod wearing, club racing folks who never see 30kts or 4+ seas... go listen to Christopher Cross ~again~. This was a series of intense clips and the men/women on these vessels were not humming Margaritaville during these sailing sessions! P.O.D. ... Hell Yeah. Well done poster. 

[21hondachick]

SO GLAD THIS IS BACK!!!

[cc9drvr]

@21hondachick I thought it would never come back. A staple for the motivational winter vids. I'm much better now...especially given that is summer. :)

[Juliajingo]

Metal music goes nicely with sailing and for sure with "world-class" sailing races. We are sick of Rod Stewards sailing songs in slomo weekend sailor videos!!! Great Footage and even better soundtrack! Thanks!

[xlr8up]

Brutal realities of hardworking, die-hard yacht racers so passionate about winning the title while wrestling with the wind to tame majestic sailing beauties that it borders on the edge of sanity, and pushes the fiber of human courage and endurance to the very brink, and often times way beyond... Stunning footage to the last!

..

Uploader tip: F- on the music.

Worst choice ever to illustrate our hearty sport, POD belongs with punkass skateboarding and dirtbike videos, not world-class yacht racing.

[Otz59]

Thank you for restoring the music. As you see from a year ago, we love this video WITH P.O.D.!! We sail a Cal 29 in Windseekers, exciting but nothing like this.

[chuckd1966]

BAD ASS

[paulstu]

Great vid...shit music.

[hwlovett]

What non-sailors should realize is that these boats race "around the world" in the Southern Ocean. This goes on day and night for weeks on end, and this footage is tamer than what I know they have experienced. I've taken green water over the bow to the cockpit numerous times, but never anything like this offshore.

[sailor44444]

Awesome footage! Crappy excuse for music. Thank God for the mute button.

[wilkiboo]

you would get more speed if you dropp ed the genoa after hoisting the spinaker and maybe a big boy to give it stability at the higher speeds

[Rubyrox1]

omg amazing. how do i get in!?! ahaha

Friggin awesome. 

[MegaStallion84]

what song/ band is this??

[imaginetheresno]

@MegaStallion84 Song is called "Boom" (rather fitting) by the band P.O.D.

[vytasas123]

Thanks for returning sound

[badgersmasher13]

i sail toppers but this is still awsome

[Relix90]

Fantastic footage! This is what it's all about!

[ikki488]

einfach geil XD 

[ikki488]

einfach geil XD

[LANZAROT999]

JAK tu nie LUBIĆ regat ????

[vanderruton]

Best sailing video ever!

[Tialkroman]

WHAT THE FUCK .... man this is amazing !

[HerrMoppe]

wow geil

[speedsail11]

motherfuckin' great!!! Keep on sailing, folks!!! That is the meaning od life!!!!

[ky99ful]

cool - good song (also used for a good rugby video...)... you should listen this sound and enjoy watching really tough sailing conditions (video was a bit for sunday day sailors, wasn't it? ;-)

[H20neun]

this is sailing

[controlthebeast]

The BOOM is back, yes!!!

[maxkolk]

yeaaaaa

THIS VID HAS A SOUNDTACK AGAIN!!! IT NEEDS ONE !!!

[maxkolk]

wohhoooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooo

THIS VIDEO HAS A SOUNDTRACK AGAIN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOHOOOOO THIS VIDEO NEEEEEDS A SOUNDRACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[algea07]

without this video i wouldn't have even known who POD where

[Hammerninenineseven]

Not a wog in sight, beautiful. You don't have to worry about your gear getting stolen!

[z06lingin]

@Hammerninenineseven Cheers my Aussie friend nobody else calls em that as far as I know.

[MrEbichan]

can i join????

[BigFishingShop]

Without sailing, the world would still be flat.

[Lxan96dr]

When ever someone tells me sailing is for fags I show them this video and they shut fairly quickly.

[cabbagecky]

@Lxan96dr people always say sailing is pussy, half of them cant even stand out side in the cold without putting shit loads of clothing on

[Otz59]

FYI, watch this video on the web but NOT youtube, and you can still hear Boom!

[Alejandror355]

Impresionante, al ver mi video os reireis pero también disfruto un monton, no es tan amaizing como este. Salud@s

[svpelican]

Boom by POD was the best sound to this vid!!!

[tardifnk]

Green water all the way to the helm...Sweet!

[kauffrau2]

respekt männer,das ist krass!

@lesterjohnson,this is one of the best vids ever,thank you so mutch...

[Otz59]

Yeah, add some music...any music. And Pod, I never would have known about you guys if I hadn't heard you first on this video. Free publicity for you!

[imaginetheresno]

Sigh....add different audio track mate! You've STILL got the BEST footage!

[rcpmac]

@imaginetheresno

Just put on your itunes jump'in jack flash or honky tonk woman

[reinalyric]

Watch TVShows like this is yacht racing at W W W . TV-Vide . NET

[ckeilah]

Nice video. Sorry to hear about WMG taking out your music. Yet one more reason to continue the RIAA boycott. Screw those who screw you, IMHO.

I just bought two more CDs last night, FROM THE ARTIST DIRECT. I will not give another dime to a RIAA affiliated entity until they stop acting like such jerks. Personally, I hope the new music paradigm puts them all out of business, but they have so much stolen money from artists over the decades that it'll be a long time coming.

[frpark3]

I had to rip your video and put the music back in....just isn't the same without. BTW Youtube and POD; I bought this music twice because of this video. Doubt anyone will care.....stupid to have to romove the audio.

[muayThaiHUN]

Yes, it was POD - Here Comes The Boom........

[fatmiceymuma]

Fucking WMG!! i watched this video quite a few times, ages ago, i can't remember what the track was but it went so well with the video!

[KanzlerM]

It was P.O.D.

I think it was "Boom".

[Virginislandsnow]

The coverage is awesome. I really enjoyed watching your video!

[Chamaeleo]

Man, that vid is one of the best I've ever sseen, can't wait till summer when I could sail again!

Respect!

[saltydog45]

There is a clip on youtube (somewhere) explaining how to get past the WMG crap...leagally....If I find it I will message it to you.

[toglusid]

maybe if i heard the music and liked it I would buy the song. I guess not now. WMG twaTS

[algea07]

man i can't beleive they muted the audio for this video, the song worked so well with the footage, i don't even sail but i regarded this as one of the best videos on youtube. you have to do something to get the audio back please

[pdxtone]

Awesome footage!

Also, fuck WMG.

[ADRENELINEDUDE]

@pdxtone Is it an ad or something? If it is, get Firefox.

[modolugo]

WMG sucks, WMG fucks the world

[J0Boa]

you can fuck them by not buying songs

[coach777777]

Still needs a new tune!

[jonnoe69]

WMG killed youtube

[ADRENELINEDUDE]

@jonnoe69 Kill ads with Firefox!

[Wrona84]

i wish to be there!

[socksloves2swim]

that is awesome!!!!!

[EbonyDawn]

It's the BT Global Challenge and Volvo Ocean Race from what I can see.

[ichbindas0000]

most pictures are from the volve ocean race, right?

[imaginetheresno]

There's NO other sport like it.....harnessing AND battling mother nature.....besides, you gotta love a fella with sea legs (signed female sailing fanatic).

[PJAonTube]

Nice one! TU

1:15 - 1:25 (ABN AMRO) is all the bucks!

[iTooGodly]

im the best at dis sport

[kongstarrr]

sick video! I agree with coach though...does need some new beats. two thumbs up!

[coach777777]

Incredible. Just needs a new tune...

[pickaletter]

Great video, but it is time to start boycotting WMG

[ckeilah]

Take it a step further: don't spend a dime on any product that has anything to do with RIAA. Buy direct from non-RIAA artists!

WMG (Time Warner) is among the worst of the bullies and jerks.

[caskier24]

and i thought 470's and E scows were fast...

[liveslosailfast]

this was by far the best sailing video on you tube...it's just not the same without the sound...so what-we need to get permission now to put music to the videos we post? Give me break!!

[bilchoo2]

Put another sound track on!!!!!!!!!

[fdcbisturi]

esaltante

[gmcrs2000]

You Tube is shit now you cant promote someone elses songs .This video needs a sound track.

Still great though.......

[Spm115]

Awesome  Bow work!!!

[KanzlerM]

On a 70 ft sailboat 40 kts is scary fast!

[ood2112]

How many Knots do these boats run?

[KanzlerM]

Up to 40 kts. (Volvo 70's)

Look closely at the wave - it looks like the wake behind a wakeboard tow boat.

[ood2112]

yeah thats what made me wonder was seeing the wake on that boat at 1:26.

[rondo2KG]

i no nothing about sailing, but at 2:43 the boom (boom right?) came over their heads dangerously close...i no enough that that would hurt very much

[emkayusa]

Yes, this is common in racing, it's called an "accidental gybe" and it's called a "boom" because that's the last sound you hear if you're stupid enough to be in the way when it happens. You gotta be ready always.

[kasbekz]

yep. that's my favorite thing to do right there. great vid.

i always watch it with some music of my own!

[torbakk2]

A friend of me, made his own cool music on his keyboard and added it to a video.. And WMG moved it.. hahahaha.. WMG can f... off...

[pirromen]

Fuck WMG Group!

Amazing movie!

[plkap74]

so how exactly do i get about getting on one of these boats? i sail a lot myself..... does that count..... lol

[Camerameister]

1:19 - 1:29 is just amazing.

[lumberjackpierre]

the song used to be "boom" by POD.

[Jolinator]

FUCK WMG

[kuriabraham]

This is a combination of 2 VORS\"s (2001-2 and 2005-6( and something else involving trimarans but it's still compelling viewing. What non yachties have to understand while watching vids like these is that these guys arent just surviving, they're racing! Pushing the boat as hard as it can go day and night through the worst seas on earth.

[jeremyheng2]

dang no music again! interesting sport though, you gotta work together in a team thats cool.

open new vindow and play pod on youtube sync
