Sail-World.com : Different types of waves

Different types of waves

'Different sea types'    Powerboat P1 World Championship ©

There are many types of wave - the most recognisable by non-boaters may be the Queen's Royal wave, but none of the arm-throwing movement's cause powerboaters too much issue out on the water.

To the average person on shore, we may not understand that waves come in many forms and require a change in driving style to deal with them correctly at race speed. To give you an understanding and to help you spot the type of waves boaters deal with, we hit up the legend of powerboat training, the grand-master of wave-reading, Neil Holmes.

Check out the handy guide above and you'll soon know your beam sea from your rear quartering.
