Three weeks ago. 25 KTS+ and 10 foot seas beyond the reef between Islamorada and Key Largo. We were transitioning from heading upwind to a power-reach on the F18. Just as Tyler (Skipper) came in off trap we took a 10 footer over the side, throwing him into the boom and me from the rear footstrap through the fore-triangle in an effort to avoid landing on Tylers head. Bent the boom 45 decrees and pulled the bull cord out of the mast up to about half way. Limped back down wind to islamorada at 17 kts on the GPS hoping the main didn't come out all the way.
