It's not an awful idea to rig a secondary set of tramp lacing, slightly loose, so that if the main one goes you get caught!

hmm not quite a call to noble, but a damage report indeed! Right here goes,
Snapped a tiller extension, snapped the main sheet, snapped the rope that
holds the trampoline on (that resulting in a swim!), and a few more chunks
out the daggerboard, all in all a good days swim! Perfect sailing weather it
was 2! Gusting 32knts think was the max, with only one capsize! (pretty
good compared to the rest of the fleet! Some nice big waves to bounce off
as well...

And les where were you! Was chatting to the 5k CA and they were expecting
your prescence! This was amid discussions about a foiling 5 tonner

Haha ... Had a call from Dave a few mins ago with a .... damage report.

I'll let him fill in the details ... I dont think I can remember all of it!!

I'm glad that I looked out the window at 7am this morning ... and promptly crawled back into bed!
