Fuck-up

Today there was a lot of wind, gusting to 25 knots, the temp. Was 1 deg. C.

Ice was building..

Fila went good under B rigg, a little bit overpowered up-wind, so tacking was not the easiest in the 10-15 chop.

Down-wind was a blast!

I came in, to adjust the vang and jib twist, grabbed the boat by the mast, somewhere at the lower shroud.

Aaand it broke..

The sails have survived, but a new mast has to be build. And the new rigg has to be setup, this will take the most time.

The plan is to make a new main sail with a shorter foot, to move the ce of the main closer to the mast, for a more balanced helm when sailing down-wind.

The tradeoff will be a slightly higher CE. 

But will be worth, because broaches will be avoided more easily with a nearly neutral helm diown-wind.
