Wow, great vid.   :o

Can you supply some details about the specific conditions?  How far from Bermuda were you in those shots?

This was taken 300 miles or so due east of Myrtle Beach.

The sun came out for an hour or so allowing me to get some shots with the camera. Believe it or not these are 10 to 12 foot seas with winds in the 25 to 30 knot range. Later that night winds increased to 35 to 40 kts which was the norm for the next 2 days. We regularly saw speeds of 8 to 9 kts. double reefed.

Charleston to Bermuda is aprox. 775 nm and took me a little over 5 days to get there and 6 days back.

Ps. This trip killed 2 video cameras ::) ;)

Kewl video, Ken. :) You can tell that she was moving good!

With any luck, looks like I'll be out that way - tho not so far - this time next week, on a Pearson 365 (delivery Jax to Annapolis). The video fills me with anticipation for some bluewater. :D

Very cool, Ken.  Keep 'em coming.    ;D

I also watched your Heavy Weather Sailing - Shannon 38 vid.  I heard some chatter about reefing.  What sail do you have up in these two vids?  Did I hear an estimate of about 25 kts of wind?

Sorry for the late reply: In the Shannon video we had 25kt to 30kt apparent wind and speed over ground of 8 to 12 kts so these winds were in the 35 to 40kt range.

I am leaving Monday to go to Maine and bring the boat down to Charleston. Back in a couple weeks.

There's a good website about the work that has been done on a Pearson Triton named Glissando. Thought it might be of interest to the Pearson Triton/Ariel sailors on this site.  You can see it at: LINK.

Let me know what you think. :D

Been linked to and discussed on this site previously, but thanks for the reminder.  It's a great site and really, can such a site be linked to/mentioned too often?

Truly a labor of love, the before and after photos are very telling.  A lot of the projects, techniques and ideas he used are applicable to any boat, and his documentation of them is quite thourough.
