So, last week Laser sailor Greg Druhak gives me a video of the old chestnut, "Bambi Meets Godzilla." I think I last saw this about 40 years ago. Anyhow, Greg got to musing about "Mothra Meets SCYC Winter Sailing." Well, I couldn't pass up an idea like that! Click here to view a new classic in silly video!
A new speed secret? I interview
a couple of top sailors to get to the bottom of this!

I've already done a "music video" of the May 17th Dinghy Shop Regatta, but since I haven't done a video in a while I thought I'd give everyone a "blooper reel" of my mistakes that day. No music, just the real sound this time.
Race Report - Cold Spring Harbor Beach Club - May 31-- Its sloooow good! Bob Blanco took 1st in the light air one race event. The video proves that even a light air day of racing Lasers is better than mowing the lawn!
Dinghy Shop, Amityville May 17 - Here's a video of the event. Blustery!

Oddities...strange, weird things seen by the water
March 9, 2008 - Time to catch a plane! Lots of wind, check out the "raw" video (no music or special effects.) Listen close, you can hear the blades humming!

Time for a commercial break...
Ever have one of those days? Last Sunday (2/17/08), I went to duck a starboard tacker, young Kia Olsen, when I couldn't turn down due to a gust. I hit her boat (mea culpa) and fell out of mine. The only good thing, I got it on video.
NASCAR at Oyster Bay! I've yet to record myself capsizing with the old Goggle Cam, but I managed to record a collision at last (with me on the recieving end!) Here's an uneditied quickie from 12/30/07, featuring a loud crash and a 270 degree spin. Names are omitted to protect the guilty. Crank up the sound!
Since Eric e-mailed the Frostbite Fleet about the video taken on December 23rd's race, I felt compelled to put together a little film. I'm going to put some of this into a video covering the whole season, but I had enough from one day to do a theme on a "Pirate Christmas." (I got into the right mood by editing this while drinking a big tumbler of rum.)
First no wind, then too much. If you were
considering frostbiting at Seawanhaka on December 16, here's what
it looked like.
