      Ooooh, good ones, Kimo! Even our non-sailing friends will enjoy the sunrise in movie #1 at that link.
      Did they get any video in the Molokai Channel? And were you on board for T-Pac with them? Cuz I noticed the producer on that link was listed as, you know... you.

            Whoa That was choice!

            They were flying and the music was cool too.

            Really glad that I could watch this video. You see, the one's that say I have to download plugins won't work for me. I've tried downloading a couple of times and they seem to get lost during the transporter transmition from space.

              I learned to sail on SF Bay and outside the Golden Gate......cold, scary, and thrilling as anything youve ever done

                That's the one thing about California waters, much colder than one might expect.

                  Indeed. Been there, done that, got the t-shirts (and crew shirts and Mount Gay caps and various battle scars). I recall one race where we were trying to sail out of the Bay. Doing 8 or 9 knots with full sail, heeled over and flying... backwards, thanks to an incoming tide. Had to drop anchor and wait for the tide to change.
                  But you want "scary and thrilling", try surfing at 25 knots down the Molokai Channel on an ultralight 70 at night with no moon, just a few hundred yards off the windward side of Molokai. Add in 15- to 20-foot waves and 30+ knots of wind, then getting dismasted within sight of the rocks. Throw up a jury rig, sail out of danger, and still end up first in class. (Cheval, TransPac '95).

                  Oh yeah. Click here for a two-minute video abour the maxi-catamaran "Orange" sailing at 36 knots.

                      It's not a video (per this thread title), but you can see three pages of exquisite photos of big classic sailing yachts racing in Antigua last week by clicking here.

                        CNN has a 1:37 video of a 47' sailboat on the rocks in England. Apparently it was a brand new boat and the buyer was an amateur sailor; he let his girlfriend take the helm and WHAM they hit the rocks and had to be rescued.
                        To see the video click here. (There might be a 30-second Listerine commercial before the video starts. Sorry.)

                          More money than sense is how I'd describe that owner.

                              A big Hau`oli La Hanau to him. I wonder if he celebrates in Cinco De Mayo mode?
                              Which leads me to point out that one of the main reasons I celebrate Christmas day is that it's Jimmy Buffett's birthday.
