Episode description

We have designed a cheap way to send your GoPro to to the top of the mast and record your race from the "top".  This angle is a great way to analyze  jib trim, car placement, helm position, and the shape of your sails.  In this Podcast, Julia demonstrates how to create a masthead GeoVid, and how to use a free online tool that calculates sail shape and draft position.
