F18 sailors on Lasers: Don´t try this at home
By Mischa de Munck
——
Last sunday we did a WinterLaserTraining. Trading in the cat for a laser for a day
The conditions were perfect, 14 degrees a blue sky and around 8 knots of oscillating wind.
Around 17 sailors exchanged their cats for a laser to train on starts and shifts. We did 5 minute races on a short course.
The progress every one made was great! from flipping over to windward, sailing over each other and doing al kinds of crazy things only catsailors can do, they finally understood the boot enough to start racing.. everybody had a blast with playing the game of sailing wich we all love.
Check out the video and see how catsailors sail on a half boat!!
