Lets start with the not so obvious

Look at the helm's sun glasses. They should be a yellow-amber color to
increase contrast. The dark lense he has simply darkens his view and
deminshes contrast. Along with his very stylish clothing choices he
screams, "I am more concerned with style and looking good than
function. Right there I would place that guy in with all the rest of
the fu fu wanna look good girly men. When my sole means of motor
transportaiton was a Norton motorcycle we had a saying, "if it dont go
crome it" That is what the helm has accomplised. You wanna be impotant
ya gotta look impotant.

2 cant tell by the video quality but look at the dark line on the
horrizon. appears to be a "squall line" or front conditions. What
comes along with that condition?

3 sailing with seas on the STB quarter.

4 speed 10.8+ knots

5 at least the main was reefed

6 notice the sea conditions were not bad. infact, I would rate the
Beaufort Sea State as: a rather nice day for sailing. that is, no
breaking seas.

7 notice the constant helm corrections. this suggests a rather
squrrley boat... given the condition. probably has a fin keel and a
huge hung rudder. both designed for nimble turning

8 the planets aligne: an expected, larger than normal wave shows up,
the boat is all ready rounding up because of all of the above (1-7),
got on top of the wave and caught the wind in the main that finished
the job the helm put together.

The sun glasses are an accurate predictor of this event...........
