Sailing reach course on Optimist with wind up to 35 knots, no waves.
Skip first 2 minutes to see higher speeds.

Up to 35 knots? When your carpet dealer announces clearance sale UP TO 70% 😂

@arslanmushtaq6721 3 жыл бұрын

Not 35 knots cuz they are just sailing normally not even hiking out (IK that it is downwind ) but still Max 25 knots

When I was out doing club racing I went in a plastic boat with my sail folded and the whole boat depowered to the max because it was 37 or more knots gusting to 40 something in a bic told me

The boat speed in this wind seems slower than usual yesterday I was sailing my opti and I was going really fast on down wind my coach in his RIB couldn’t keep up (there was bigggg waves too) explain please

@yxteine 6 жыл бұрын

Burning Flame it depends at water depht a lot how high waves can form. This is very shallow lake ( about 2 meters only in this place). Skip first 2 minutes for better speeds.

Look up the Beaufort Scale to see why that is far less than 35 Knots.

vincent7520 there boats are flat. Unless you 150 pounds hiking as hard as you can with your sail rigged super tight, your boat would not be flat

I think they mean gusts up to 35

Guys he's full out hiking on a *broad reach* and bringing his body to the back of his boat and still sometimes can't keep the boat flat so maybe 29 knots gusting 34 Also, the wind isn't the only thing that's heeling your boat, the waves add on. The waves here are pretty short so considering he hiked once and a while, he would be hiking full time with big waves.

I know it wasn't really designed as a planing hull but's these are only marginally pulling ahead of it's bow wave. I'd not call that planing. Planing for me is the calm after the storm. It's when the boat goes into crazy fast but totally calm mode. When you can take your hand off the tiller at 20+knots because everything it totally balanced. It's kinda Zen... Luv and Peace.

where's the whitecaps?

@yxteine 7 жыл бұрын

Good question! I know that usually there will be whitecaps on water when windspeed goes over 12 knots. Maybe some physics expert can explain it. Video is captured with GoPro on a very shallow but quite big lake around 200-500 meters from shore. Water depht is around 1,5 - 2 meters. Wind blows from shore. There was very small waves for this wind. Skip first 1.50 minutes to see higher boat speeds.

@DieterSchulzHoos 7 жыл бұрын

If you would look from the other direction, not from behind the boat, you would probabely see more wite caps, but generally wind from the land does not produce bigger and breaking waves if you are near the land and if the ground stays rather "flat" and if there is no opposite movement of the water itself (stream).
