Atom Ant 0 Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 For the first time ever I read a forum from beginning to end. In the middle of it is an account about what happened to Charlie. Hats off to the two guys who just got home sans keel. Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 I was sailing with Chris Sayer a while back. When he dropped his keel on the Mini coming back from Oz solo he got through about 18 hours before he capsized. Boat was never recovered or seen again. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 Charlie was the first time I ever heard of a keel dropping off, now it's commonplace. Link to post Share on other sites
