Folks,
Over the weekend I have spoken to both Gary and Steve.
I would suggest that James knows Steve better than some others on this forum hence his earlier response to Wouter.
When the dogs had blown off the chain I understand that Steve was still pulling the kite.
This is not my story to tell so I suggest a little patience would be in order. In a couple of days maybe Steve or Gary or hopefully both can spare the energy to tell the story.

BTW- I expect if Steve was towed in as claimed it was a precaution as the boat was a loaner. I understand that the damage to the boat was a broken cross arm.

I still think it bad Karma to ask for a "Crash Course" <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />
