Maltese Falcon Tacking

As she came up to the start, Maltese Falcon tacked. Not surprisingly it's a slow, complex but very impressive thing to watch as this sequence shows. My friend, Patti and her husband Paul are navigator and tactician. They would have had their work cut out for them working out how to cross the line without mowing down a handful of spectator boats that unwisely had not cleared the start. Big thanks to the guys from Phaedo and Gunboat for kindly providing the RIB.
