My first time to be in the trapeze, sitting outside the boat, running the tiller-extension in one hand, main sheet in the other, and jib sheet draped across my thigh. The heavy wind (~20) let me pull the boat up onto its side a few times, which I've gotten braver with since the recent plethora of capsizing drills; it takes a lot to flip a C-15.
I shot this with my waterproof pocket cam, strapped to my life jacket. Not a great video, but you can see how fast the water is moving. Amazing experience.
Cherry Creek Reservoir, Sunday Sept 12th, about 8 a.m..
