Aloha, Brah!
This is a
shot of the Hawaiian local Antrim 27, Intuition in the Lahaina Return Race from
this past summer. They went on to win their class in 20-35 knot winds,
eventually boat-for-boating the Santa Cruz 52 from which this photo was taken by
Jesse Andrews.The 27 was reported at various times to be:
- Sideways.
- Airborn.
- Planing for great distances on the surface area on the bottom of the keel.
- Flying by at breakneck speed with water pouring out of the batten pockets.
Either way,
that is real sailing. Thanks to SA reader M Denzer for the love.

Here is a
photo of a boat that I sail on here in Detroit. 2 days ago, a local America's
Cup sailor, who shall remain nameless (he quit his Cup team when a certain Kiwi
was put back in rotation), had some sod stripped from his yard. Instead of
disposing of it properly, said sailor decided to have a laugh at the expense of
our local chandler, who owns this boat.
The attention to detail and professional finish on this "yard" is excellent. If
this rockstar does not get a ride for the next Cup go around in Europe, he
obviously has a bright future on the working end of a Lawn Boy.

Disaster struck on the third leg
of the race when the strategist Adam Beashel warned of "bad waves coming." As
the load on the 25-ton boat was stretched to the maximum, the black boat rode
over two big waves but on the third it dipped low into the trough, and coming
out of it the mast snapped just above the second batten. At the same moment,
Beashel was shouting "waves coming" it all came crashing down.

Metaphorically, this picture says plenty about the current state of TNZ. They
are in big trouble. They now find themselves in a situation where they are going
to have to try and do things differently. They will probably need to win the
start and sail flawlessly, two things they've not yet done.
