Hi I know the owner of boat and he is a very experienced sailor.
He his out there every week racing or not and knows the ocean there better than many I've seen.
The winds were out of the north barreling down the marina channel so fierce, he didn't have a chance.
The finish line of that race is at the entrance to the marina and judgement for the racers and boat involved were not used with discernment on Thursday.
Safety in this conditions is to finish the race inside the marina to give the boats plenty of leeway to round the enterance.
That was not the case Thursday.
The winds picked up like that during the race and it was an unfortunate accident.
It wasn't because he 'didn't know what he was doing' he is a competent experienced skipper that did his best to keep his crew safe.
It wasn't his fault.
Truly an unfortunate accident. I'm just glad every one is ok.
Cheers Len and Patricia, sending love.

This boat has no engine, wich is normal for this kind of small racing boat, apparently the genoa's mainsheet is broken, the guy in the front is trying to sheet the sail by hand wich is not possible with so much wind. could happen to every sailor in the world"
Igual no lo hizo mal, tan sólo lo que pudo.
Salud.
