TERRIFYING Downwind Sailing on our 12 Foot Skiff! | World’s Craziest Sailboat EP5

Extreme Skiff Sailing in Melbourne! We take on the 2025 Sail Mordi Regatta at Mordialloc Sailing Club on Port Phillip Bay, sailing my brother’s 12 foot skiff — one of Australia’s most insane and overpowered carbon fibre sailing dinghies. Against a mixed fleet of ILCAs, 29ers, Aeros, Sharpies, Finns, 125s, wingfoils and more, our 4 rigs, 3 masts, and outrageous downwind speed made us stand out slightly!

Day one was all about light wind sailing, patience, and legendary steamed dim sims. But day two? Pure chaos: a 20–25 knot winter northerly, rusty boat handling, and dodging other boats and windsurfers as we fought to survive. The highlight: absolutely terrifying downwind sailing that left us hanging on for dear life.

If you love skiff sailing, extreme sailing videos, or just watching small boats get completely overpowered in big breeze, this one’s for you.
