I posted that pick of my cat, I didn't tell anyone how it happened because I thought it might encourage some funny speculation which sort of happened. It was very topical because the thread started with someone wanting to put the bigger rig on their Tornado which is what happened with mine but it didnt handle the load after about 5 years the hull just let go in a race. When I dismantled the beam of the good hull cracks were starting in the same place. The good hull has now gone to become the centre of a trimaran after getting the cracks attended to with nacra 5.2 outriggers.
