That is hilarious! <img src=icon_smile_approve.gif border=0 align=middle>

Ya think they got too much sail and wind, and not enough sense?

Derek, it's a quicktime movie. As much as most PC users won't want to, go to Apple.com and download the free quicktime player, install and then you should be able to view the file.

I have Windows XP on my system, and some kind of window opened up and asked about mime settings, and Quicktime, and would I like to automatically reset them, so I replied OK.
The video came out just fine.
I hope I haven't screwed up my computer. It won't be the first, or last time if I did.

I'm not technically challanged, just dont give a sh about learning computer stuff. I rather learn how to be a better sailor.

Hey,
Great clip! Looks like they were doing fine until they caught the wake of the power boat. What do you want to bet the power boat was there as a chase boat (there to keep the racers out of trouble)<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle> Also looks like the skipper did a nice face plant.
