The last and probably the worst day of the year. I had just stepped below for a sleep having just put the parasailor up for the first time. I felt the boat swinging around from my bunk and new something had gone wrong. I leapt onto deck and tore the spinnaker down in a mad frenzy and then pulled the main down. When I got back to the cockpit I found the rudder in the cockpit. Tom had been helming at the time and the Rudder’s fittings had ripped off the hull of the boat, or to be more precise the bolts holding the rudder to the boat had sheered.

Bummer about the rudder - any ideas why it ripped off yet?
I had a look at www.parasailor.co.za - this parasailor spinnaker looks pretty radical.
