No crap. Anybody that's ever had a boat sideways in the surf knows what you mean.
Absolutely. I was just going to say that the guy's rig started to slip off to the side, and I thought to myself, 'if he doesn't keep her straight coming down that face he's likely just killed himself and his crew, or his vessel at the very least'.
There's a fine line between ballsy and reckless. Being that he could've sailed around, I'm thinking more reckless than ballsy, but then what ends well... Doing that again would be pushing it, though, in my book.
