Sailing Grace: Sunny Late Summer Sail, Tiller Cam

As the cold and gray unicloud closes in here, I enjoyed putting together this video of a late-summer sunny day's sail on Grace, my home-made home-designed sailboat.

The breeze was (as usual for this past summer) gusty and challenging.

Since I bought a second GoPro thinking I'd destroyed mine, I've experimented with using it in different ways, and this time tried putting it on the tiller.

I enjoyed the perspective. A number of people have asked me about how the boat stays so apparently stable, and one thing that is clear from this perspective is how much moving around and luffing the main goes on during a gusty day like this.
