CAN'T HEAR THE SCREAMS

There is only one thing more viscerally exciting than screaming across calm water in a sailboat in a high wind. This sort of catches the flavor.


That other thing that is even more exciting?  It's pitch poling a sailboat that long at those speeds. If you buried the bow in the standing wave under the Golden Gate Bridge, any crewman standing near the helm would probably get launched over the bridge like they were tossed from a giant catapult.
Thank's Theo.
