G'day had a brilliant day at Robe South Aus last saturday 5th Jan 2013, did okay in first race but lost my crew in a gust. In second race we went over in good style. Not shown in video is the Hobie 18 T boning a Nacra 5.8 put a 1ft crack in it with 4 inch hole right through they covered it with duct tape and did the second race 3 up. Our diamond wire nearly came completely undone you can see it swinging around after we right the boat, other Nacra 5.8 broke rudder crossbar, Stingray and Hobie 18 broke their tillers but everyone was laughing on the beach, what a hoot. Club officer had the wind meter on the rockwall, when we went over the peak gust was 36kts. Sorry if video is blocked in your country I put music to it.
