new capsize testing video
« on: January 30, 2011, 07:57:41 pm »
Hi all,

Thought I\\\'d share this new video we made recently on capsize/righting of the BR20.  The water is a bit warmer in Tasmania this time of year but wetsuits still required.

see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYrFXsHzvcg

regards,

Andrew

Andrew,
this is truly amazing footage, thanks for sharing it.
While watching the video as the lads try to capsize the boat, I sort of heeled in my chair in a virtual attempt to help them with it. This video is tops.
And the boat itself is lovely.
Very well done, all of it.

I was amazed at the difficulty of inducing a capsize with the water ballast.

I\\\'d love to see a BR17 trial, if you are so inclined.
