Title: new capsize testing video
Post by: Andrew Denman on 30 Jan 2011, 19:57

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

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.
