Spinnaker Poles Everywhere
In the Semi-Finals of the 2011 Chicago Match Cup, Keith Swinton used his leeward position to force a late jibe (and brief broach) by Phil Robertson. Swinton's maneuver cost him when he ran over the finish line marker and Robertson won. Swinton did however win the Cup.
In the background Pierre-Antoine Morvan and Alvaro Marinho head towards the windward marker.
