It seems like John Baxter was condensing a lifetime of sailing in his blood down to the short amount of time he had on this video. It was really well done. I'm not yet a sailor but I am learning to have a substantial amount of respect for sailors like John. Keep up the good work, Chris. You are giving us a taste of sailing in an intimate first hand way that most of us landlocked Midwesterners could never have dreamed would be possible.
