Amen brother. I had a near-death experience on Big Saturday 2 weeks ago
when sailor jibed into my path (Blue helmet, black PFD, you know who you
are!). He bailed before we collided. Yesterday at Third it happened
again - I cut upwind just before we crashed.
Although it's a drag for either I think it's more dangerous to the jibing
sailor - you'd get speared. Always look around before jibing.
