Five Jibes and a Mexican

Got a GoPro last week, mounted it to the bow pulpit and made a video of Wednesday's race.

Good vid. Good work. One comment. At 4:42 the bow girl is standing in the impact zone of the spin pole. Have watched a bloke get punched in the mouth with a spin pole. Not a pretty sight.

Yeah, I cringed when I saw that part. This was actually Gia's first race as primary bow. Normally she does mid-bow or mast.

That pole looks hella long. When it's windy, do you do dip-pole jibes?

No. Always end-for-end. It's just a J-length pole. I think it looks longer because of the wide lens.

Go eat at The Green Onion! Closing up soon to make room for more apartments!

The tacos at Muy Pronto are really good, too!

She's pretty good - very smooth & unruffled.

She can be my bow girl anytime.

Good work But... the jib should go through the pre-feeder or the luff tape could get torn and might get stuck
