When one of the foils come off, they either go skyward or down the mine. I would say they were 'lucky' to not destroy more of it by going down the mine. Don't they typically design these things so that the rudders break without taking the hull with them?

I think youre absolutely right Wheels. The condition of the boat in question and the ability of the sailors involved are much more deciding factors than the particular model of boat. We'll have to wait and see. Here's hoping its another case like the young lad rounding east cape earlier this year.

T878... one-off home-built trailer cat? I dont know many trailer cats intended for anything remotely close to that sort of passage.

Spent the Saturday polishing up the boat for the Sunday race. Unfortunately, the paint is starting to delaminate where the foam of the trailer ribs meet the hull, probably osmosis, given how the foam is almost always damp.
