I drove the Tiger full speed into a shallow mud bottom while on the trap with no damage.

I hit the bottom at Sarasota on the F18 Capricorn and cracked off a little carbon from our board with no hull damage and finished the regatta on that board.

I drove the F18 Capricorn at speed (21knots by GPS) into a shallow clay bank cracked both dagger trunk connection points. I was surprised it wasn't worse. Boat stayed together and only took on a little water.

It's getting fixed and will be back out sailing soon.
