I had the opportunity to shoot a speed sailing event last weekend from a chase boat going at 30 knots. It was very challenging try to keep the shots in frame. Most of the work in post processing was cropping and straightening of the horizon. Too bad Capture One does not have a feature to straighten the horizon. I see it's a feature in PSCS Raw conversion but never did figure out how it worked so I ended up fixing it with the free transform tool. Most of the shots were at ISO800 in full sunlight to get a high shutter speed. I did manage to get a few panning shots but it was a hit or miss with the boat pitching in every direction.
