Judging from the direction that huge flag appears to be blowing, does it look like he is sheeted in too much. Isn't he on a beam reach?Here's another old one from Sept 2013. Pardon the grainy quality -- it is a cropped image taken from far away.
I was looking through some old image files and dug this one up. It was really strange the way this boat had the dinghy in tow.....

Yup, the main is way over-sheeted and it looks like the windward jib sheet is caught on something. Isn't is fun to critique other's seamanshipJudging from the direction that huge flag appears to be blowing, does it look like he is sheeted in too much. Isn't he on a beam reach?
