A sailing video for those who need a fix...

[Christian Van H]

Here's part two.

YouTube - Sailing to Boston 2

These big files on YouTube take forever. I have no idea why some cannot view the videos, but please let me know if part two is broken too! Thanks Stillraining! I love sailing videos, and I think there should be a special discussion board just for 'em! I have several "home" videos with pretty funny premises I'd like to post someday...

Yah, great clips! Very happy for you but I wish it was me though!! Thanks again for sharing!!

[Ex-Calif]

Interesting. I searched for the clip directly in You Tube and found it. When I clicked to play it it says "This video is not available in your country."

Weird...

edit - part II works fine.

Part 2 is even better! How is it that when we take pics when heeled over we can never get the horizon level? All my own images have to be tilted and cropped to get it right. Loved the beam reach bits!

[Christian Van H]

Thanks for the nice comments guys! Its fuuny, I never noticed the horizon before in that shot... but you're absolutely right! As for the other question, yup we made it. I'm not gonna post the end though, because unless I master compression the arrival in the dark just wont view well on YouTube. Thanks all!

Nice job Christian. I enjoyed it.

Here are some from VALIS. The production quality is just about nil, but if you're desperate you might find them interesting. Not YouTube, just the raw video files:

I got this message when trying to view Christian's video: "This video not available in your country."

[Christian Van H]

I have looked all over YouTube, and checked into every available option in my preferences, and can find no reason some countries seem to be blocked. I'm really sorry about this!
