2013 NorEaster Newport Rhode Island

It would be nice to have the link to the Youtube channel on the front page since many are shooting videos these days and it is exclusive to the class. We can bring in any video there for the pleasure and promotion of the class.

That was my thought too rather than what is becoming a scattering of different sources and formats. Attempts to do this before and have someone manage it did not work out. It may prove a difficult task. Yes, you are correct on promotion or, as I call marketing. The listing in the Newsletter is the only collective source for resources and member benefits. It is valuable to us all. The more sites that surface in a Google search for this model and organization by the public the more hits we will get; a visible organization, communications and media creates fun for us all. Thanks for your support in your neck of the woods. See you on the North Lawn.

Well, it took me a bit of time to figure out how to take a high resolution video, tune it down so that it could actually be uploaded to You Tube. So here is the link one of two races we had at the Nor Easter. You can increase the resolution on this video by clicking the bottom right window and increasing the pixels.

Ok, Now here is the second video. The one thing to note about this video is how much more wind there is compared to the first one above. All boats in the shot are in B rigs and it the breeze is still too much.

Enjoy...
