Did Ian do that or was that down South? Can't believe we lost our pole by dropping it in the water, got a new one then found the old one washed up on the beach a few weeks later. Some boat eh?

Think it was ian, aiming at the caravan park.

Was was the full list of replacement items on the boat?

I got a spinny pole in the eye at uni, crew was a bit overeager to drop the kite.  Same day i almost ripped a finger off on the shroud, not a pleasant day, that was the last time i sailed one!

Life's a reach, then you gybe

Replacement list for the 2- one kite, one kite pole, one rudder and stock, one tiller, a few extensions, countless ammounts of blocks and the Laser Centre put a new mast on her when we swapped her for the 5000. We also out of her free will put a few new sails on her and replaced all the ropes, the hull was still immaculate though. She was one seriously sorted boat and I still miss her  We only put a new mast on the 5000 and she was sorted when we sold her. The 49er has only needed a daggerboard due to a crew landing on it.

Saying that though we did really hammer the two over 4 years, remember going three sail reaching over taking 505s and the spreaders ripping off, not a nice experience and we were really screaming at that regatta till that point......gutted
