Alex,

Awesome video as usual. My old cruising boat doesen't have a vang and I've been trying to determine the value of the extra line and hardware. Considering I am looking at a lot of trade wind sailing you gave me the exact input I was looking for to make the decision. Time to rig a vang. Thanks again.

LW

Cam, you are moderator.
Is there a way to remove this limitation for Giu:

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Giulietta again.


This kind of work is way better then a good post and does deserve our standing ovations.

The video was great. Your voice sounded much better this time. I guess you shook that cold. The graphixs were really helpful. The same as last time, I now understand what a boom jack is really doing for me.

Nice job Giu...

You did mis-spell topping lift in the captioning ... other than that, very well done.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.

Giu, I finally got around to looking at your videos.
I've got to say, they are excellent.
The combination of graphics and videos makes them easy to follow.
I can't wait to get out on the water and play around with the techniques that you have illustrated.
Thank you very much for the obvious time that you spent in putting them together.

Camaraderie, thank you for the links. Nice boat all around.
I can see all the other videos in this thread, but the last one doesn' open

I can't see it like the other ones, what am I doing wrong?
