In Response To: In addition, Larry - perhaps some men who've had more than one wife/girlfriend/partner have simply learned... ()
I've been fortunate, in that my wife is easy to live with (certainly she's more pleasant than I am). We can't all be that lucky.

- Thanks for the link. I think some missed the point that the first rudder failure was complete. It fell completely off
- That boat could have been saved...

- Another way to pole out the second jib
- What really bothers me is the fact this was the third rudder failure
- yes, Yes, YES!!!!!......
- Mainesail sort of explained the actual scenario.
- Designing and building rudders is NOT that tough
