Hana Ho sucking their gut in to fit between us and a boat 50 feet ahead of us (🥎🥎) #ourladydefiant
At the start of the 2025 Lightship race, Hana Ho, a Santa Cruz 50, came down and just barely fit between our bow and the stern of the boat in front of them. If we had come down with them and sped up, we'd have closed the gap and put them in an unenviable spot. With 4 minutes left to the gun, it wasn't worth collecting the foul, but boy, this is right on the line between skill and just a dumb move, especially in PHRF where the boats accelerate and decelerate differently.

Changing Jibs Through a Tack (Spinnaker Cup 2026) #yachtracing #ourladydefiant #jboats

By doing a jib change in this way, it makes it easier on the bow team to both raise the new jib and lower the old jib in an organized way. If you can plan ahead so that your jib change can be done through a tack, it s...
