Come on, M-15’s. We have M-17’s, Sage 15’s and 17’s, and an O’day 20, but no M-15’s, which usually are the most popular class! We’re great fun, especially me.

Those first two minutes will define where you start on the line, and how much space is around you to accelerate. This makes starting one of the hardest skills to master in sailboat racing. Good news is there are a few tricks that can make starting much easier. In the video below, our expert Mike Marshall talks us through a start where one boat in particular had the opportunity to contain the fleet and have a low-risk start with just one small decision change. However, as we all know, things don't always happen as planned. See what Mike says about cutting your losses and taking the high-risk route to stay in control of the game.
