Ever watched an AC boat go downwind?

Cheers

On big boats the crew are below sails.


Only if you're in the back of the boat, dumbass.


Actually, we open our cabintop hatch and our bow hatch straight up, to
grab more wind while going downwind.


Do you make the crew stand up too? We do that in NZ.


And block the sails? That doesn't sound too bright.
