Why most modern big boats don’t bother with spinnakers... an A sail is much easier to sail with and for the crew to manage... 5 guys to get the pole down and stowed

No guard rails On J’s, and crew aren’t wearing life jackets either.
But they’ll have at least one or two chase boats (big ribs) at all times for racing and training. Plus J’s generally have other boats following them most of the time given how rare and beautiful they are.
I only wear a jacket and clip on when working foredeck at night, or in very heavy weather.

I would prefer to be picked up by the RIB than dragged underneath a J at 12 knots that's for sure.But they’ll have at least one or two chase boats (big ribs) at all times for racing and training.

One guy wasn’t even on deck and I’m not convinced clipped on !
Amazing to view TBH
If you mean the guy who went up to spike the kite, he's got a harness that he clips on to the downhaul before he goes up.Amazing to view TBH
