What is a Sailboat Race? ...for Non-Sailors

Explaining sailboat racing to non-sailors can be tricky, but I'm trying to make it easier on everyone. This is not a video about the rules, flags, bylaws that create the nuance of sailing tactics. It's just a way to help your non sailing friends understand why you leave work early every Wednesday night with a gloves on. Creepy.
