Clipper 343 Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Saw this on SA At Cowes week, Gitana and Groupama got too close to each other at the top mark, Gitana took out both of Groupama's rudders... Groupama continued towards the beach wall at 25 knots and all four crew had to jump off just before it hit the wall. The sprit took most of the damage. The best part is that the onboard camera kept on rolling. Video here http://www.extremesailingseries.com/video/cowes/ Link to post Share on other sites

Atom Ant 0 Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Fantastic "fly on the wall" video, but it doesn't look anywhere near as exciting as it must have actually been! Link to post Share on other sites
