If you watch the film Craig shot, you can see the waves breaking on the shoal. Ding Jibed and went right next to it, probably missed it by less than half a boat width. We apparently went a boat length farther, so i for sure would not have to jibe again at the finish - (Nice planning in hind site - no blush)

It was cochina. Took off the bottom few inches of both boards, and scuffed up the bow pretty good, but no major damage
