No matter how modern the boat, ancient rituals like having a crew member over the side in waves freeing a line with a knife have been repeated at sea for a thousand years.

Another great mix of video, crew, technical explanation. The mix of serious and light-heartedness is fun to be part of.

I really like how different technical therms and situations are explainend. Using bottles as waves is just genius.

Great report Niall.- Thanks for all these details. Knowing that filming is hard work under this condition, its anyway helpful to improve the sound quality when recording. Please: No critique at the team documentarists. You all do a great job as your teams. I hope that all the teams with their technical specialists including the constructors find a solution to avoid the extreme foil resonances. Car and or airplane constructors are familiar with those effects. There are for sure solutions of different scales. Wether structural dampings or different weights. There will be high-speed sailing on the long 3rd leg with these types of acoustic speedometers. What I could see is that nobody with or without capsuled ear protectors will hold through, I hope the crews will receive solid improvements. Last 1.000 miles to Cape Town - how many miles further to SE before shifting towards the RSA coast? What I find lifting the tension for the whole race is: If the 1-3 positions stay as they are in the moment, the scoreboard will show 3 winners with 8 points each. Speed for Mailzia is already slowing down. Save arrival to all crews. A great event for offshore sailing.

Great update, nice nice work thru on the wave diving. Saw a video of Pip Hare with her imoca in the shop, making the bow fatter, flatter to prevent diving. Next year, no more pointy bows. Scow bows will rule.

Thanks for the vivid documentation about what is happening on board and the challenges the crews have to face.

Great mix of impressions and technical explanations. I'm always looking forward to the next Ocean Race Show. Keep it up. And thanks for entertaining me

Awesome guys! Keep up the great show! Looking good Niall. Editor got Susann and Jack mixed up, make sure you guys get enough sleep!

Great video! Any chance you could put subtitles on the sailors? It can be difficult to hear what they are saying through all the noise and the auto-generated ones struggle as much as the rest of us.

I imagine the turnaround time for the show wouldn't allow for it. Hopefully they can hire some extra people and adjust their workflow to accommodate subtitles next race or in the later Legs - especially since it's an accessibility issue.

I'm curious if the race committee or the teams have remarked on how close the fleet sailed to Itajai? Is it odd to sail past the Leg 3 finish on Leg 2, knowing they'll be heading the long way 'round in March?

It looks funny, doesn’t it? But that’s how the currents tend to push boats when going south from Europe, you can see it in pretty much every circumnavigation race and every time I think “Hey, you can’t do the course backwards!”

Excellent update summary. Human survival in a hostile environment. Testing doing the basics: sleeping, eating, talking, shower/baths, bathroom breaks. Noise, pounding, vibrations/rattlings, falling temperatures, sea water ingress, body & clothing smell, sea fare.

Great report. Thanks Niall.

Great Show, i love the race!!!

Thanks again for these updates.

Can you explain the inhauls and tweakers, particularly if using multiple jibs? See it on the Maxis, how does it affect sail pressure forward of the mast foot? How do you balance the boat on the foils?

I said it already but fantastic coverage.

Great report! 👍👏

These are so well produced and keep me engaged in the race. Keep it up!

Wie immer super.....

The nose dive issue can also be dealt with by altering the angle of attack to match the wave frequency to the hull. An oblique path to prevent the loss of speed and time lost to regather momentum, and the shock waves, sleep disruptions, impromptu food fights, etc. From the archives of the _Institute for the Preservation of Dunning-Kruger Genius._ (I had written the above before reality pointed out that oceans are painted after all!)

Excellent reporting!

very good show

Looks so funny how Susann Beuke tries to eat her pasta in the slamming boat at 14:06

that is insane.

14:09 That's not Susann Beucke

Any chance we get more new images like in the earlier oceanraces? Always the same

💯

Is that a keel or a foil?

I believe Pip Hare is modifying the bow on her IMOCA right now to be a similar profile to Team Malizia.

Platypus bill bow would help the bow diving. Lol!

“Like babies screaming and crying!”

Niall, So the current leg is a bit of a long sprint 10days? But the next is really long 30 days ?more? Not sure Too long to go with limited sleep/ water/food etc How will the sailors try to be sure they can stay ‘ on the ball’ 20+ days in if the don’t change their sleep and nutritional habits of the earlier sprint legs? Maybe the OBR will have to find out for us??? Cheers Warren

The next leg will be a very taxing ride for all crews and regardless of position on any leg of this race they’re all winners in my book for their sheer stamina of maintaining such a focused determination throughout each event. You have my utmost respect as a fellow sailor and stay safe

Why aren't the vo65 racing though?

No active noise cancellation?

Looks like we really do have the power to turn the tide on plastic pollution 😉🌊

Can we have more coverage of the vo65s?

Yeah, thats not the keel... its the foil. How should you be able to crank the boat so much to one side without shore attachment :D

@theroadhome_Liz_Summers

Жыл бұрын

I think it is the foil ... BUT, they can lay the boat on its side with the keel (Pip Hare did it in VG2020 to recover a sail). There is a test IMOCA must past where they use the keel to right the boat from a turtle position. You can Google "The mast walk by Alex Thomson" to see an example. It is a canting keel not a fixed keel. It is one of the items on IMOCA that is the same for all, i.e. they all have the same keel.

@ferdypl322

Even though it was the foil, you can get on the keel while underway, search the keel walk

There is so much more rubbish in the water these days I'm surprised they dont pick up a lot more especially now with all the foils

Why don't they wear head protection.... and eat with their bare hands... would greatly reduce risk of an accident.
