There was a news crew on the boat covering the event they were attending. That's who took the video. And they were some of the worst ones injured.

That dude owns a 42X Cigarette now with (I believe) 1100's. He was at the cig run in 2020

Need to try to stay within 90 degree to 45 degree (quartering) into or following the waves or parallel. It's the other angles that seem to create an uncontrolled porpoise. Parallel is not so fun, but manageable.

I somewhat remember that being the case now that you say that. I'd of still thrown it out myself or never published it.

I was talking to Will Smith at PRI several years ago and he told me that guy was a friend of his and a veteran offshore racer/boater with a lot of experience. A good reminder that the water is unpredictable and sometimes we all make regrettable decisions I suppose.
