Yes - be worried. Don't let the foil hang on those wires. The previous owner of my boat did and the wires really showed it and made me worried until I replaced them. In my case, I have a spin pole that I leave on the boat on the trailer (I extended my tongue 7' so I could tow mast behind RV and I can also leave my 14' pole attached to the boat). I have a small arm off the mast support that supports the spin pole and keeps it held high. This supports the foil in an almost tensioned position. If you don't have a spin pole, you might be able to come up with some sort of support vertically from the trailer to support the foil.
