johnk 0 Posted June 12, 2010 Report Share Posted June 12, 2010 fullfoil you are out of line full credit to everyone involved that they got the boat back up and no one was injured mouthing off like that and calling people names , particularly when you werent involved is immature and childish, you be better of lending a hand instead of sneaking in the cheapshots Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Murky 1 Posted June 12, 2010 Report Share Posted June 12, 2010 A forlorn sight. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted June 12, 2010 Report Share Posted June 12, 2010 It looked like they had heaps on trying to right it. It would be a demoralising way to start a race the guys must be gutted. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted June 12, 2010 Report Share Posted June 12, 2010 who are you full foil? Kate held onto the back beam until she was in the water, Andy went smoking down/up the rigging there is a big hole in the out rigger hull where the pressure got a bit much. So, did the boat get broken when righting it? How did you try to get it upright? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted June 12, 2010 Report Share Posted June 12, 2010 Dam!! Heard the news and thought someone was crying wolf. So a new member of the UDC club and another reason I can't....blah blah blah.. Nope I don't wish this on anyone so sorry to hear the bad news wolfy I hope the damage is not to bad. Now might be the time to look at installing foils they really keep the nose up Seems like you have a hole already made. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Saint 0 Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 How did the hole happen? it seems ok in the pics when the boat is in safe mode Quote Link to post Share on other sites
samin 0 Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 I just hope its repairable and doesnt end up in pieces sitting in a boat yard with no work being done on it like Frantic Drift. It certainly makes me feel a bit happier about the air draft restriction I will be complying too. Sing out if you need a hand with anything Tim. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 After seeing all the effort that coastguard put into helping yesterday, I have finally joined coastguard. Hope she gets fixed up quick and is back out racing soon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Adrianp 35 Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 That is just the saddest sight! Hopefully not too much work to get her sailing again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
