IC24 Spinnaker Trim

A series of clips in of IC24s sailing under spinnaker. Speed is achieved through proper trim, control of heel, and balanced helm. For best performance the pole is "over-squared" - ie: pull back further than perpendicular to the wind; the pole height is set to keep the spinnaker from floating too high; and the trimmer and driver work together to find a proper angle that maintains sheet load and speed.
