@m1leswilliams
I don't doubt that you *do* sail. But here, you are an armchair sailor. So am I:-)
I fear we don't have all the facts. Perhaps the collision also damaged/jammed the mainsheet system. I agree it is strange the jib wasn't eased right off straightaway but again, there might have been something else wrong which we don't know about.

@m1leswilliams I agree. Looks like they tried to get the boat to turn to windward by grabbing the boom they didn't release the jib sheet. so the boat accelerated nicely on a reach towards the harbour wall and they all jumped ship. But its hard to judge their seaman skills as I've never sailed on extreme 40s. Its either the crew or the designer of the boat thats at fault (excluding the boat that rammed them of course), I suspect the crew lost concentration after the initial collision.

@m1leswilliams these guys know what they are doing besides the extreme 40s are very hard to stop when they are out of control eg no steering

It seems suprising to me, they get in the way of one boat, lose their rudders, they don't let the sheets right out putting pressure over one hull and forcing a turn or at least a deceleration, then they all jump off as it heads to shore. Pretty poor performance by the skipper and all the crew if you ask me.

Why didn't the crew release the sheets instead of making the schoolboy error of treating the boom like the tiller @ 1:03?
