I don't disagree with the title, I still think it's a cool video - it's actually a great video. It shows a lot of things to learn from.
Agree to disagree...
I can see why people stopped watching after a little while, it was repetitive and boring. I was wondering why anyone would post 20+ minutes of sailing along on a reach, so I started moving forward through the clip. When I got to the capsize, I thought, "GREAT, another let's make fun of how much Hobie 16s flip video."
It was when I saw the crew stuck in the rigging that my stomach literally turned. She got out, then the skipper was focused on fixing the rudders, there was another capsize somewhere along the way, etc. I was looking for the crew and always just assumed she was still there and the skipper was too busy to look at her. The music concealed any attempt at making sense of what they were saying at the time.
When I saw the Sea Tow boat show up with the crew, and read the account of how he lost sight of her for an ENTIRE HOUR is when it really went into a whole new version of uncool for me.
